MOPS

Andrew and I had a new adventure today attending our first MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) meeting. He actually didn't cry when I left him at "Moppets" with the other kids. However, one of the ladies did say he got teary eyed (*sniff, sniff*) after about an hour. He isn't used to staying in a new place for longer than an hour (this was 2 hours). But he did OK and he was so happy to see me when I came to pick him up. It was so sweet. 

He still struggles staying at the church nursery ... he usually cries when we leave and then he is fine almost instantly after we leave. I can handle that, but it's still hard!

Jeff and I are thinking about joining a new gym--Now the gym daycare I'm not so sure he'll be able to handle because I envision it being pretty loud and boisterous in there. Our visits to the Y when Jeff was gone often ended with me on the eliptical for 15-20 min before they came up to get me! I have to accept that my return to a regularly scheduled workout routine is going to include me up at 5 a.m. to workout before Jeff leaves or the dreaded evening workouts. I've successfully done both, so I have no excuse! Yikes.
