Daycare Changes

Today is kind of a sad day in our house. Today is my sister’s last day watching the boys.

My sister, who is 3 years younger than me and has two little boys of her own (“I” – 3 years old & “N” – 8 months old) and has been watching our boys (& hers)at our house for the past year. She has decided to take a job a lot closer to her home (right now she drives 30+ minutes to our house every day) which will give her more family time and less drive time. She started watching our boys when they were 12 weeks old and I went back to work. We really appreciate what she’s done for us the past year more than words can say. We will all truly miss seeing her & my nephews every day. (She lives close enough that I know we’ll get together many times on the weekends.) We wish her good luck in her new job!

So…now the hunt for new childcare has begun. We’ve been looking at both in-home daycares & daycare centers. We have not had much luck with in-home daycares having availability for two kids under the age of two so far. We have toured one center (which we loved and know both people that work there and take their kids there – which is a HUGE plus) and will be touring a couple more to give us a comparison. My mom has kindly offered to watch the boys until we find a new “home-away-from-home” for them.

It will definitely be a change for the boys & my morning routine but I think it’ll definitely be good to get the boys out of the house during the day and interacting with more kids. Wish us luck!
