daycare highlights

The daycare that Daniel goes to frequently sends out a little newsletter telling us the highlights of the day, with photos and everything. This usually arrives in my inbox around 5 PM, before I leave work, and I get SO excited to see if Daniel's photo made the day's news. Unfortunately they don't send these emails every day, probably only about half the time. I guess on some days, there's just too much going on for anyone to sit down and put an update together! As much as I like to receive them, I can certainly understand that it's hard to find the time (I can't imagine keeping up with all those babies).

This is yesterday's update, as you can see Daniel made it into the newsletter. Apparently the shape of the week is the diamond, and they are hard at work on crafts incorporating what they are learning.
Mike and I think it's pretty funny how Daniel's pacifier is sitting on the edge of his tray as he works. Mike says it's like he's got a cup of coffee on his desk, it's sitting there ready in case he needs a fix.

the "ouch" report

With crawling comes falling. Daniel got his first "Ouch" Report at daycare yesterday - apparently he was exploring and he slipped and fell. He does have a small bruise under his eye, but the incident seems to have been forgotten and it has certainly not deterred him from further exploration.
It's a good thing we don't have to fill out ouch reports at home, he would have had a few of those already too. He's hard to keep up with!
