First Day of Mother's Day Out

Today was James Bradford's first day at Mother's Day Out.

Last spring we put him on the waiting list to go to the MDO program at our church. We were so blessed to get off the waiting list and him start this January. He will go 3 days a week. Our original plan was that I would drop him off at MDO and my mom would pick him up. And those would be the 3 days that I work. Little did we know this leg thing would happen. But MDO is going to be extremely helpful and give both Cory and my Mom a break from babysitting James Bradford and I.

That morning we had his school bag all packed - diapers, check! Bottles, check!, Formula (unfortunately no breast milk right now), check!, Change of Clothes, check! A friend of mine gave me this adorable bag with his name monogrammed on it. Perfect for MDO!!

Mom and I loaded up (I couldn't miss his first day!), and when I say loaded - you really have to load me up with this leg!! We parked close and mom carried James Bradford and I used my walker. It was a lot of of fun to see friends and to meet his teachers. They all seem really sweet! After we dropped him off I was exhausted!! - a 2 hour nap was had (yall know I hate to nap!) - A walker is hard work, I have a new appreciation for people who use them!

Mom picked him at 1pm. He did great! I was so proud of him!! He even brought home a progress report.
Yes, I realize it says "John Bradford" but its ok, they will get it right next time!

I am so proud of our big boy!!

**sorry for the quality of the photos. Bringing my camera was the last thing on my mind, so we settled for shots on the camera phone**
