Baby stories

Dylan claps constantly. When she's happy and she knows it, of course, but also when she's upset or angry. It's how she expresses herself. One of her teachers was burping another baby and Dylan thought she was clapping at her and started clapping excitedly back.















They had a fire drill yesterday. They load all the babies into two cribs and roll them outside. Apparently Dylan thought this was the funniest thing she had ever seen because she laughed hysterically the entire time. I thought it sounded pretty funny too.

She is almost crawling. She gets up on all fours all the time and can sort of go backwards. She can maneuver around the room rolling and squirming. She has sort of mastered getting from sitting to crawling position, except one leg gets stuck in the process so she collapses on her tummy.

I didn't tell her teachers that she has been eating cheerios. An older baby was eating them in front of her today and she got VERY ANGRY when she couldn't have any, so when I got there they were like, um, has she had those before?

















They are going to move her up to the next room at the end of May. Of course, now she knows and likes her teachers and is doing great. I hate to mess with it, but she'll probably like the older babies and more table food and more activity. They do a couple week transition period so she can get to know the teachers. She does not like to be left with people she doesn't know, so I hope they do a good job with that. I imagine this is going to suck for a few weeks.
