The week before my spring break my Mom came on an last minute trip. After she found out that Wes was not doing well at daycare she booked a flight and was here for the week. Since starting back at work in January Wes had gone from the 50% in height and weight to the 10%. He was also not "talking" nearly as much and had stopped rolling over. When I left him at his daycare he cried so much that it sounded like he was going to throw up. He did not sleep and would not eat. Basically, he needed his mama. (we still love our daycare and Luke still loves her, it was just not a good match for Wes right now.)
So, with my mom here, he started these amazing naps... 4 hours total for morning and afternoon. He also started drinking out of a bottle with a record of 9 oz one day. He was smiling and laughing and there were no tears when I left. Our friends who don't have kids yet even noticed a difference at church last Sunday. They asked why was he so happy? All of this has been tearing at my heart and making it even harder to go to work each day. Now that we have made a change in daycare combined with the fact that there is only 8 weeks left to teach makes it better. For the rest of the time I am working we have a lady coming to our home on Mondays and Fridays to watch Wes. We know her from our church nursery. He had a good first day with her yesterday. The other 3 days Grammy Joanne will be watching him. I can't thank her enough for taking the unexpected time out of her schedule to take care of our Wes. This was truly a crisis situation.
Below are the pictures that my mom took throughout the day when Wes was with her. I got photo updates via my iPhone...
