Moving Daycares

I NEVER thought we'd be moving so soon.  I was dead set on finding a place and sticking with it.  Because what baby wants all that change so often?  Scratch that, this mommy can't handle change :)  I like things to stay the same.  I always have.  I get nervous and anxious about trying a new dish at our favorite restaurants.  Make my little human have to get used to a whole new set of ladies taking care of her?  No thank you.

But alas, here we are just 1.5 months into this going back to work journey and we are already moving.  I feel so pathetic not even being able to say TWO.  But like my boss said, I need to go with my gut.  And my gut tells me this is best.

We love the building Zoe is in now.  But she can't stay.  They close for the summer (teachers' kids) and she'd move to the twelve month building and we just don't get that "warm fuzzy feeling" there.  And it may sound stupid, but I want that.  These women see my baby more than I get to (which is so sad in itself), so I want to make sure it counts.  I felt terrible telling her teachers.  They keep saying how much they'll miss Zoe next week and in the fall.  I cried today when I went to pick her up and said goodbye.  I was done for as soon as Miss Linda gave me a hug and wished us luck.  But like her lead teacher said, while they'll miss Zoe "I appreciate that as a mother, you are doing what's best for Zoe."  I just hope this is what's best.

We are moving to a place where we already know one family with a little girl Zoe's age.  And I actually babysat for a little girl whose family took 2 of their 3 kids there and only pulled them out because they moved further away.

I hope this is our "forever" home.  Or at least where we stay for a long time.  A place where Zoe can make friends and love on her teachers.  Because who couldn't love these cute, chubby cheeks???

Let's just hope that some of her daddy's go with the flow attitude rubs off on her.  Because I don't think Aaron could deal with 2 of me in his life :)
