Back in February before I had Paisley, I signed her up for the nursery class at the boys school. After having some terrible in-home daycare experiences (only some good,) I decided the church school would be the best placement for her. But, after having her I started getting really sad that I had to expose her to a big childcare facility at 2 1/2 months old. I started praying God would open up a situation for me, where someone would watch Paisley in there home. Once again I wasn't looking for a in-home daycare, I just wanted to find someone who could watch just her. Well this summer, God did find that perfect person for me and she was right in front of me all along. She was a friend that I have gotten to know over the past year. Her oldest daughter was in my class last year and we were both pregnant with little girls at the same time. We bonded right away and became even better friends over the summer. I actually feel like I have known her forever. I just love how God brings certain people into your life just at the right time. :) Anyway, over casual conversations this summer, she decided she wouldn't mind watching P for me, since she was going to be at home with her baby. I was thrilled about this news and thankful Paisley would be going to such a good home, (and right by my home & school!!) Well, Paisley started with her new sitter/mama two weeks ago, so I could start getting my room together. It has been going FANTASTIC and better than I could have ever dreamed of. My sitter/friend and her family truly treat Paisley like she is their own. She was sick last week and they put a humidifier in her room everyday at nap. She also gets her nails clipped, toes painted, & homemade bows made for her all the time! :) Not only is P well taken care of and loved, my friend has made going back to work so EASY on me, (with some occasional dinners in the evenings too!) It is nice knowing that Paisley is getting everything that I would have given her, if I stayted home. I am so appreciative and thankful for our sweet friends who love our little P and spoil our family rotten. We love you guys!!
P.S. Thank you for all the photos during the day too! I love seeing what my baby girl is up too all day!!
