Daycare 14 Weeks Old

Sophia made it through 2 weeks of daycare. I know it was harder for mommy than her! She has nine other kiddos in class with three teachers.The kids range from 3 to 12 months. We get to see her on webcam everyday. Even though they are young, Ms. Desiree helps each of them with painting projects (handprints/footprints). On a daily basis, Ms Yolanda helps with regular tummy time, puppet time, and reading time.

Sophia is getting a lot of kuddos for how well she is doing with tummy time and how talkative she has been. Being the youngest baby in class, she seems to be getting a lot of attention..

Guess who is 3 months old?

I love to smile, listen to stories, and "talk"now.


I can handle about 10 minutes of tummy time!
