Day 194: The Teething Diaries III
Miles has enjoyed gnawing on everything he can get his hands on, from toys to...well...his actual hands, for a few months now. It's safe to say now that this fairly innocent precursor has now given way to legitimate and persistent teething. When I pick Miles up from daycare, I don't expect too much of a … Continue reading Day 194: The Teething Diaries III
Day 187
It seemed like all of the parents arrived at daycare simultaneously to pick up their assorted infants and toddlers today. I walked into Miles's room to several bodies, hustling, bustling, and of course plenty of loud noises, ranging from laughter to crying. And through it all, Miles sat in a chair on the far side … Continue reading Day 187

Day 134
I decided, pretty much on a whim, to pay a visit to Miles's daycare during my lunch break today. I didn't necessarily have time to, but I figured what the hell? I arrived to find Miles relaxing in a chair, lost deep in thought or, perhaps, studying the room and children around him, looking for … Continue reading Day 134
Day 132
We're three weeks into daycare now, and Miles is still cool as a cucumber when I drop him off every morning, never once getting fussy as I walk away. In fact, when I come to pick him up, he's still completely relaxed (and he does still usually give me a big smile when he sees … Continue reading Day 132

TFW your workday is so hard you can't even make it from the car to the apartment without falling asleep.
