1st week and all is well

Well week one in Nashville went well. Matt left Monday to hed back to Memphis but not before taking Ella Catherine to her new daycare. She did really well her first day. Her teachers were all praises when I picked her up. My mom came in town Monday afternoon to help me break Ella Catherine in slowly to her new daycare. I am VERY happy to report that I don't necessarily think it was necessary. She has done BEAUTIFULLY! She LOVES her new school and her new teachers Miss Deborah and Miss Donna. She has not cried at all when I dropped her off and Friday she actually wanted me to put her down so she could start playing. I very welcomed surprise. It definitely makes leaving her for work everyday easier.
As for work, my first week went well. I am still in orientation and following/shadowing people but everyone so far is very nice and I am learning a lot. Hopefully it won't be too long before I have the hand of things.
Mom is still in town and we decided to take Ella Catherine shopping today. Today was her first trip to the mall. I know, I know she is 16mo and I have never taken her to the mall before sounds crazy. I never wanted to take on that venture by myself. She did REALLY well today. We went to a restaurant called Aquarium for lunch. The restaurant has a huge aquarium that wraps around the dining area. Ella Catherine was so excited. She was pointing and squealing. I only wish we would have had a camera with us. Our camera is broken and we left mom's at the apartment. However, I promise that we will post some new pictures soon!(I've been hinting for a new camera for my birthday)
