Adjusting well and falling into a routine

Hey! What is this thing always doing in my face?
So going back to work and Cole starting daycare has been an adventure, an exhausting adventure, but I see light at the end of the tunnel :) I love that I am able to take Cole to our churches daycare (Creator's Kids they call it). It just feels like taking him to a friends house. I know that has been a huge thing for me, dropping him off in the hands of familiar faces and taking him to a building I have gone to for 25 years. He loves his teachers, especially Mrs. Darlene. He just smiles every time he sees her. We did have adjustments of not eating well (to many distractions I guess and someone new feeding him), then he was not napping well (to many noises). Which meant I came home to a whiny, hungry and sleepy baby. My 3 or 4 hours at home with him, he was in my arms. I thought where is my sweet, happy go lucky baby? Each week has gotten better. I feel like now we are doing 90%. Yesterday he ate WAY better and even took a 2 hour nap at daycare! We had our happy little boy last night :) He has also gone back to his 11-12 hour stretches at night, which is WONDERFUL!
Here are a few pics from the last two weeks and some at daycare...

Woke up with a rash one morning-went away with a little Aquaphor

Holding my bottle!

So serious before school

Had bad diaper rash. It made me act like this
