Mother's Day Out: Day 1

Today was Zane's first day of daycare (mother's day out - henceforth referred to as MDO). Yes, I cried a little. Zane was too distracted with playing to notice that I left. He apparently noticed shortly after, though. His teacher, Christie, said that he cried a little but was mostly whiny throughout the day. My mom gets this too - lots of "mama...mama...mama."

I went to yoga, took a shower, blew dry (blow-dried?) my hair, put on an outfit that included heels and then was at a loss as to what to do. No napping (too much caffeine). Wasn't hungry (too much caffeine). So I went to Target. 1 hour left. Stopped at McDonald's and didn't panic at the long line. 45 minutes left. Drove to the church. 1/2 hour left. Played solitaire on my phone. Played solitaire on my phone. Played solitaire on my phone. 15 minutes left. Read USA Today on my phone. 5 minutes left. Noticed another mom going in to pick up. Noticed a dad (in too-short shorts, by the way) going in to pick up. So I went in to pick up.

Everyone was playing in the gym. Zane was in one of those little push cars. It fell over on him. He saw me and was relatively happy to see me. He gave me a kiss, which has been hard to get from him lately. Christie said that he ate a little lunch and napped pretty well. Yea!

We went home and Zane ate O's on the couch and watched Curious George while I stretched out and "rested my eyes" next to him. He was in bed and asleep by 7:15. I was in bed by 8:00 and asleep by 10:00.
