Day 2
We have been packing our lunches, getting bottles washed, and laying out our clothes and ready to go the night before which seems to be working very well. Although, I would have had plenty of time this morning. Jillian slept at the daycare from 8-11a, then 12-3p yesterday. She fell asleep last night at 8pm, which is earlier than usual. She woke at 1am hungry and went back to sleep until 4am and decided she'd had enough rest. At least she's a happy girl in the mornings. The daycare called me at 11a today saying they'd given her 3 of her 4 bottles already and she was still crying. They wanted to give her her last bottle but instead I went over and fed her from myself. They didn't know I was coming but when I got there I peaked in the door's window to see how things were going. One of the employees had her on her lap and was slowly and gently rubbing her tummy. It made me happy to see that they were trying to soothe her and not ignoring her. She had calmed down by that point.I haven't known how much per bottle to send her with each morning but apparently it isn't enough. I'm hoping she makes it through this afternoon but I may get another call. I'm so glad they did call. I anticipated these first few days to be difficult in a number of ways but we'll get it figured out. I'm hoping she stays awake more today. A few more hours and I get to pick up my Jilly boo. Then we'll be home and cuddle near the wood stove on this snowy day.

Glad she's doing well, I'm sure she's the favorite by now...how could she not be? Stay warm and give her lots of hugs from Aunt Pam.
