No Baby Here Anymore

Elias spent the entire day on Thursday in his new toddler class. If he could talk, I think he would have said, "It's about time." He has been spending little bits of time over there for a few weeks now, and they always said he didn't want to go back to the infant class when it was time. Also, when Matt was dropping him off in infants, Elias didn't want him to leave. I think in toddlers this won't be the case.

What toddlers means is Elias (and all of the kids) sleep on a mat at noon. On Wednesday and Thursday he took a 2 hour nap. Go Elias! He drinks his milk out of an open-faced cup. It is pretty impressive. The kids sing songs, have 2 snacks and lunch each day, get read to, do arts and crafts, learn to set the table, pour, cleanup and help get themselves dressed. They also get to play outside a few times a day. This is Elias' favorite. Figures he likes recess the best.

The transition went very well, and I think Elias is really going to like it. No baby here anymore.
