That and that it's the beginning of a new kind of life, no? Either way, I'm sure she'll do great. Hope the new routine continues to go as smoothly, too.<BR/><BR/>Oh, and in answer to your question on my blog, the freezing cold mountain water apparently bothered the kids much, much less than it bothered me!

I'll be handin' that little teething snotty non-napping bundle of joy off to my mum and I'm heading out with my husband for the first time alone in 10 months. I do feel slightly guilty that this is one of the big things I'm looking forward to about moving home.(but only slightly!!).<BR/>I'm sure the first time he's actually with someone other than family... i'll be totally freaked out.<BR/><BR/>Do you find that your days go quickly being a hairdresser? Generally if you're booked up the days just seem to fly by... so that's a good thing... it'd be horrible to be in an 'office' job stuck in a cubicle and watching the clock tiiiiiiiiccckkkk-toooocckkkk really slowly towards 4pm.. so you can get back to your little 'munchkin'.about plantain:https://www.blogger.com/profile/13780113980537181876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20010349.post-1157477023151045262006-09-05T12:23:00.000-05:002006-09-05T12:23:00.000-05:00Heh, yup you are a Mama!

Been there.<BR/><BR/>For the first 3 months of Ella's life, she didn't go to a sitter. Like you, we left her with grandma or with aunts. But, when she finally had to go to a "sitter", I had my DH do the drop off. I couldn't do it, as I knew I would drive myself crazy.<BR/><BR/>I did, finally, have to do it the other month. Mind you, she's been going to the sitter for quite some time, but when I had to drop her off, I cried. I guess it's just the whole handoff that gets me worked up. <BR/><BR/>It'll get better... :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
