Day One, lunch by Daddy.

I was able to sneak away during lunch on Monday [Kate Scot's first day of school] and feed her a bottle. It was awesome to walk in there amongst the chaos of all those kids, pick out mine, walk over there, and have her give me the biggest smile. She was hungry and the teachers already had one of her bottles warmed up and ready. So, I just plopped down in a rocking chair and fed the munchkin. After a productive burping session, and some good cooing, I sat her back in this bouncy chair and snapped a picture before heading back to work. She really is so much fun.

First Day of School

This was a very busy week for our little family. Debbie started back working full-time at the hospital and Kate Scot started going to her new school. The morning routine has really changed for us. Debbie and I are learning that it sure does help to have things organized and ready to go before we go to sleep. Kate Scot has taken this new routine in stride and has really done well at school. We're told that she never gets fussy unless she's communicating her hunger. She's always just looking around and smiling at people. The principal says that she'll go in there sometimes and pick her up and walk her around the hallway. She gets a report card every day that lets us know when she ate, how much... when they changed her diaper, how much... and so on. Debbie and I argue over who gets to pick her up in the afternoons, and if Debbie is off before 6PM then it's her. I can't win that battle. I've attached a cute picture from her first day. They set her in the swing just before I left and she looked so wide-eyed that I had to take picture with my phone.
