Re-Scheduled

Bummer... my secret meeting is being re-scheduled. The dept. assistant is supposed to call today to arrange a new time. :(

Maddy officially starts her "grandma" routine tomorrow. I'm nervous about this, but I know it will all be fine. Tonight I have to gear up her diaper bag and get her stuff all packed up for her. I made a shitload of bottles last night, so I should have enough to get me through tomorrow. I need to go grocery shopping for more baby food - I don't want his mom buying it for her. That bugs me.

I think I might just send like a week's worth of extra outfits at a time - I know that Jerry is going to take her there in pj's everyday. It's so hard to think about this whole new routine. I have to map out a plan to keep things organized and keep MIL and myself in the loop on Maddy's eating/pooping/physical activities. Because Jerry is dropping off and picking Maddy up - I know he won't ask questions or know anything when he gets her home. Hmmm... I have to think about this and come up with a good system. Any ideas?

Maybe you want to try something like they do at daycares and have her keep a log or something. That'll be a hard one to approach though - cuz you don't want to seem like you're trying to step in, but yet, you do need to know what she's doing...

I think I may just call her every night for a quick status report. I think this will work well, b/c it will force us to talk/communicate on a regular basis and I'll feel more comfortable and it's less "formal" than a sheet for her to fill out or something. I'm going to try it and see...
