a new daycare, like a new beginning...

so, we started at a new daycare on monday.  i realized i forgot to mention that our daycare lady decided not to renew her license as i was writing this post - she told us that february 3rd was going to be the last day she could watch iz, so we were a little frantic to find something (as most of you know, finding daycare isn't easy, especially in a couple weeks).  we got lucky with a center that is pretty close to us, that said they could work something out and take her (thank goodness)... i was actually really excited about it, i thought it would be so good for isabelle to be around a bunch of kids her age.
it was the best thing ever to pick her up and get this little 'look at me' paper about her day... it says what she ate, what time, what she liked doing, how long she napped.. all those good details i have been missing all this time!  i was so happy to get it and i just can't wait to ready it every day.  i love picking her up at the center too because i never know what she is going to be doing when i walk in and she gets the biggest grin and walks to me so fast with her arms out ready for a big hug - melts me every time!
izzy girl is so happy in the mornings on our way to daycare... jacob and i took her the first day and she didn't cry or even look back, it was almost harder on me than it was on her.
isabelle has been so tired from playing so much at daycare - she crashed in her crib with her arms behind her head a couple nights this week - laid back.
i am just so excited to see isabelle learn and develop from all the littles at daycare.  3 of her 5 papers this week said that she enjoyed singing and dancing which just made me smile... she has started dancing around in circles and shaking her head from side to side when we are listening to music in the car - so glad she already enjoys music :).  i was nervous to take isabelle to a new place where she didn't know anyone, but she has done so great, i couldn't be happier with the change.

i almost forgot to mention this.. isabelle got bit on her second day of daycare!  i walked in to pick her up and the girl was like, 'we had a little incident today' and showed me iz's arm and it was the kids' whole mouth, all the teeth marks on little mama's arm - she said isabelle didn't make a big deal about it, but they iced it and that they felt bad she got bit on her second day.. it was kind of funny, not funny, but you know what i mean.  i felt so bad for her and i was more worried that she would turn around and bite someone... she hasn't yet, so that's good!
