The Time Has Finally Come

It's official...Cameron starts daycare on Monday, May 2. Mike and I are actually looking forward to it - we think Cam is now old enough to really enjoy a change of environment and interacting with other kiddos his age. He is going to start out part-time, so he'll go on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. This will let Mike do some more work during the days and start the transition to scheduling clients earlier in the day, so hopefully he won't have to work until 9:00 PM anymore.

The pros and cons of daycare:

Pros:

• Cam will get a change of environment and get to consistently hang out with other kids his age.
• Cam will experience new things he might not otherwise at home with us.
• Cam will learn some social skills. I'm hoping this means he will watch what other kids eat and consequently start eating more table food.

Cons:

• My mom and dad are leaving to summer in Tennessee. :(
• We now have to pay for daycare.
• Daycare = germ fest.

Bottom line: we know Cam will like it. And I'm sure it will provide us with lots of material for this blog. :)
