Well, tomorrow is a big day for us.....Riley is starting daycare for REAL this time. Joe is dropping her off with GiGi in the morning!! I have a bag full of stuff for her first day (bottles, diapers, paci's, extra clothes, her rabbit that she sleeps with, oatmeal and formula). I also typed up a sheet for GiGi as to what Riley likes to do, how to calm her down, etc.
Earlier today Joe was out working and she had just woken up from her nap and we were sitting in her rocking chair just relaxing and it made me really sad again!! I truly believe that for as long as she is in school I will cry on her first day!! (Or maybe for the whole week leading up to it!!). I know Riley will make lots of new friends, will love it, and will forgive me for abandoning her!! But I just don't know if I will be able to forgive myself!! Thank goodness Joe will be doing the morning drop offs and I will be doing the afternoon pick-ups.
Anyways.....this weekend was also big for another reason.....Riley had her first sleepover without her mom and dad!! We had a wedding to go to and so my parents offered to watch her for us....OVER NIGHT!! So we agreed....I was a bit hesitant, but you have to do it sometime!! So they came up and got her and they said she was a perfect angel!! They showed her off to all their friends down at the lake and loved every second. They dropped her off yesterday afternoon, and I am sure they are still sleeping!!
Yesterday we had the fantasy draft at our house. There were a whole lot of dudes here!! Riley was very well behaved, and her Aunt Kerry played with her a lot too!! Riley loved that!! Here are a few photos from over the last week.

Hi Riley,
I hope you had a good 1st day at daycare. These moms just love us so much. Little do they know we are tougher then they think. My mom still has a hard time leaving me with anyone! I'll see you next Saturday at the picture party.
Love,
Madeline
P.S. I have the same Redskins dress as you! Maybe we can wear it in a photo together!
