First Day of Day Care

As a new mother this has been a bitter sweet morning.  My baby girl left with Daddy to go to her first day at Day Care.  I thought I had prepared myself for this morning, but I did get teary eyed when Tony pulled out of the driveway.  And then since they've been gone I haven't sat down for too long because I miss her so much already.  I keep looking in her bassinet out of habit, but she's not there:(  I thought I would crash and get some sleep as soon as they left, but that hasn't happened yet. Here are the pics we took this morning to document this monumental day. (I just woke up in the pic below, so excuse the no make-up and great morning hair-do:) ha! )

Mommy & Lillian
 She's wondering if she's ready to meet her new friends at day care or not
 Daddy and Lililan heading to the truck
 Daddy's sleepy....and so is Lillian:)
 Wait....she wants to tell Daddy how excited she is!
 Daddy's smiling becuase we actually got him off "on time"!  That is a very big deal for the Gunter family:)
 This is when I got a little teary eyed.
 And they're off...
 Still watching my baby leaving for day care:(
 Still can't take my eyes off my baby girl leaving home for the day...
 Almost out of sight and Mommy is sad...but, what an exciting new phase of Lillian's life!  I find comfort that her day care is such a great place and the people there have been fabulous in getting us prepared for our first day!
I start back to work Monday (6/13) and went back and forth on whether or not to send Lillian to day care this week or not.  Daddy was wanting us to get our schedule/routine in order these 3 days that I have left when I will not be needing to get ready for work.  This morning went smoothly.  She had her bottle just before leaving. I had everything packed and ready to go, so once she finished eating we took the pictures you see above and got her in Tony's truck.

Hope everyone has a great Wednesday!
