First day of daycare

Today was my first day of school - ever

I'm showing off my first day of school outfit.

And THIS is my very own lunchbox. It's a penguin!

Vivi did great at daycare today - it's right on campus so I can walk over and nurse her or play with her. She was happy and smiling and playing with toys every time I went over there. She seemed to love playing with (or at least near) the other babies and watching the big kids (2 year olds) play outside. And there are mobiles everywhere - what could be better? They got her to take two naps in her crib - they must have some sort of magic daycare dust.

Getting Vivi and all her "stuff" there today was a bit of a challenge - the "school supplies" for daycare are bulky.

Here is all the stuff we had to bring for Vivi's first day of school. If I remember to do this every year, it would be interesting to look at how that changes over time. We had to bring two changes of clothes, two blankets, diapers, emergency food (the jars of food and box of formula) and her lunch for the day (the container of sweet potatoes on the penguin). She doesn't actually need a lunch box, but it's the first day of school - how could I not get her a lunch box? She's lucky I didn't buy her a bunch of pencils and spiral bound notebooks too.
