jibber jabber

Much to our relief it seems that Kate's first trial week at daycare went well. She seems really happy and the ladies there seem happy with her. She did two half days and then a full day yesterday. When I called in to check on her yesterday one of the caregivers said they tried to put Kate to sleep but she sat or stood in her crib happily "jibber jabbering" to herself for over an hour. Unfortunately she never did get to sleep - she must have been wondering why those five babies beside her weren't talking back.

I too had a good or should I say interesting first hours with Cody and Terra Nova. Morning 1 training went well, a little overwhelming but good. Day 2 Cody had departed for Toronto so I got a day of reprieve. Day 3 Cody called from Toronto as I was heading in to the office and asked that I keep driving to Fredericton as Air Canada was re-booking half his flight and directing them there. Oh Air Canada. They said something about the storm that had blown into Moncton and needing to downsize the plane. Poor guy. So I had a day of driving in not so great weather. We did get a few hours in the office but there were computer issues that Cody had to deal with so it turned out to be a bit of a scramble before having to pick Kate up and brave the storm again.

Happy to be relaxing at home this morning.

Our pretty girl.

Snack time in one of Kate's favorite resting places.

Kate's napping now as she woke with pretty big bags under her eyes. Oh what a girl - I really felt the loss of those hours with her. I feel for my friends that have to be away from their babies for longer. With that said, it was a great break from her and I felt exhilarated just answering the phone.

I hope all our Calgary peeps are loving the balmy weather while we dig out from the second snow storm of the week here. Ciao, Aimee
