First Day of Summer Daycare

Kelsey is Wyatt's regular babysitter and lucky for us she also lives next door. Since Mother's Day Out is out for the summer, Kelsey is Wyatt's summer daycare for June and July - Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:30 am until 2:30 pm. Today was our first day. Wyatt and I went yesterday to get a baby gate for their stairs and a booster seat so he can sit at the table for lunch. This morning at about 9:20am Kelsey came over to get the first load of stuff to take over - pack 'n play, laundry basket of toys and books, baby bag with diapers, wipes, blanket, change of clothes, lunch, juice, milk, baby gate and booster seat. When Kelsey came in, Wyatt knew something was up. He immediately started clinging to me and crying. We calmed him and proceeded to walk next door. Brandon (Kelsey's 16 year old brother) was also there to greet us. He was kind enough to put the pack 'n play together upstairs and we put up the baby gate. Wyatt fussed the entire time in fear of my leaving. I tried to calm him but finally just gave up and left. I felt so bad (like always) but also like always he stopped crying about 20 seconds after I left. Kelsey said they had a fun time and he did great. He loves going over there so I knew this would be a great thing. Right now, he's taking another nap so I can finish working. So far so good!
