First Tooth - 20 Weeks

I found his first little chopper poking through! It is on the bottom in front...so cute! They said things would get interesting fast at four months, and boy has it!
We have conquered rice and oatmeal cereal, carrots, pears and we are onto sweet potatoes without a hitch. Elba is rolling all over the place and army crawling/scooting around. He really likes the Einstein jumper and the exersaucer he plays in at daycare.
Today I took off work and Mitch and I went to find a new daycare for him. We really liked the first place we went to so we agreed to just go to lunch and call it good after we checked her references and the first lady told us that she couldn't ask for a better day care provider. Although she has two dogs and one cat, you can't smell any animals when you walk in and her house is very clean. Her interaction with the two kids she had there was great and they both really loved her like a grand mother. She has raised 5 kids of her own and was a teacher in a day care center earlier in her career. She is very personable and talks a mile a minute, which to me says she has a lot of energy and patience for the kids. She doesn't have any other infants at this time and excited to have a baby again. Her thirteen year old daughter has DS so she is familiar and open to using sign as well. She is open to our sometimes flexible schedule and charges an hourly rate (a surprising challenge when you need part time instead of full time). A very sucessful day!
