I have a big kid.
Punk is getting very big all of a sudden. It's like she was a baby for a long time and then something snapped and now she is gearing up to be a toddler. It's freaking me out!
As for her first day at child care:
She didn't nap. She also didn't eat much (had 6oz of milk instead of 8, had 1/2 a jar of food instead of a whole jar). And she fell somewhere, somehow and got a good bump under her left eye. I am trying not to make a big deal about that, after all, kids fall - especially kids who are suddenly obsessed with pulling up and are not terribly coordinated. She was happy when I left, and happy when I got back, although you could tell that she was so far past overtired that she had lost all control of herself and had zero ability to calm her body down. (I'm guessing this is how she fell.) When I picked her up, she went wild climbing me and tried to bite my shoulder (which is what she does when she is overdone and doesn't know how to calm down).
She crashed out immediately in the car and woke up about 25 minutes later. I got her into the house and she was still so exhausted, yet it took me an HOUR to calm her down and settle her for a nap. Ugh. And then she only took an hour nap. Double ugh. And she was STARVING by dinner time.
Hopefully she will be able to sleep at M's house SOON, because spending an hour with her screaming from exhaustion yet unable to get into sleep was really taxing.
