Our "Toddler"...

Yesterday was a big day for the little man...he went from the nursery to a toddler room at daycare. The biggest difference between the two rooms is one nap a day and that nap is on a nap mat rather than in a crib.

So far, the nap mat doesn't seem to be a problem...but...he is exhausted when I pick him up. Yesterday we couldn't find his pacifier so he cried until we were almost home and then fell asleep. Today we had the pacifier so he was asleep before we got out of the daycare parking lot. However, once he gets home, he is just ill because he is so tired. Now...we realize this will get better (just as it did with Anna Lauren) and all will be fine, but we for sure are having an "adjustment" week.

On a separate note, he has decided to be ugly to his friends. I got a call from the daycare at 10 AM today...he had already bitten 4 of his friends. They asked if they could give him some Tylenol with thoughts that maybe it is his teeth hurting and causing him to bite...yes, he does have another tooth breaking through so we can hope that is the case. Or...let's just hope it is a phase. I remember this being the time Anna Lauren and her friends did all the biting. Oh...the "not so fun" part of being parents...so embarrasing when they call you over issues such as these.

And of course, we couldn't have our first "toddler" day without taking some pictures before heading to daycare...
