Free of the DOC Band!

Everett got his DOC Band removed today. After 3 very annoying months of him wearing that band he is finally done. James took him to get it removed today. I wondered just how long it would take for him to hit his head. Before he would hit his head and none of us would flinch. Not even him. Since he had his helmet on we knew he couldn't hurt his head. Now he is helmet free. It took him less than 2 hours to hit his head and he screamed bloody murder!! Poor baby. Guess he will have to learn not to slam his head into things anymore. We'll see how many bruises he gets over the next week.

Back to work!

So, tomorrow I start my new job here in Connecticut. YIKES!! James is off the next two days so Everett does not start day care until Wednesday. I am totally freaking out about Wednesday. I am suppose to just drop my son off with these strangers and go to work and not worry. Yeah right. Those of you that know me know that I am an insane worrier. I do believe that my first day at work with him at day care is going to give me an ulcer!! I might actually throw up after I drop him off. I'm getting sick to my stomach just thinking about it. I visited a lot of centers in the past 2 months and chose this one. What if I chose the wrong one? Holy crap! James and I made a deal. I am going to give this job my very best for a few months. I will see if there is a real possibility of me building a clientele there or not. If there isn't I am gone. I will go back to staying home with Everett and we will just have to scrape by each month. Starting out I will only be making just barely enough to pay for day care so if I can't make more than that very quickly it just isn't worth it. Also, if Everett seems to hate it we will yank him out. I really don't want to go back to work, but I really need to give it my very best shot. I know if I don't try to build clientele here now I never will and I will always wonder if I could have. We will see how it goes. I will update you when I know more. BTW - here is a recent picture of Everett. Now you can see why I am reluctant to just drop him off with some random people!
