My brother and sister-in-law also sent us one heck of an original present that I certainly appreciate. It is a rocking CAMEL!! It is a carved teak camel complete with painted saddle and decor. It's awesome and, as an ex-camel racer myself (two races, photos to prove it), I certainly hope baby enjoys it. Baby will have to grow into this a little, but I am pretty sure this will get put to good use in our house.
Thanks to both Melissa and Mark and Yousef and Kari! We are looking forward to using both gifts for sure.
We also toured two daycare facilities today and it was pretty obvious what our choice is going to be. We went to the Montessori School of Downtown first (space center and el dorado for the locals). It is a little more expensive than a typical daycare, so we weren't sure what kind of benefit there was going to be for the money. It seems there is quite a bit of value in the money and we were very impressed. The second place we went to was your standard Kindercare daycare. Ummm... not bad, but seriously I think the decision was actually very easy. The two we saw today I am pretty sure are the high and the low from our list. Then we went online and read about the other 2 we were going to see and, compared to what we saw today, we don't see the point in taking a tour. We really liked the Montessori closest to our home so we will be enrolling the peanut there. Also, since we have looked far enough in advance, all we have to do is pay the initial enrollment fee and our spot will be guaranteed for whenever we need it. One major decision down, one gazillion to go.

Let's see some pictures of the camel race!
That camel is awesome!
Thanks for the shout out! The camel is gorgeous! Can't wait to spoil baby some more! :0)
don't spoil baby too much, or I'll see to it that Mark and Austin are playing bumper cars with their new Power Wheels....in the house!!! lol
That's great you found a daycare so fast! We went to about 7 before we found the one we liked, including a couple Montessoris that we were less than thrilled about. I have heard good things about the one on El Dorado, but it is kind of out of our way. That was totally the most stressful decision for us before having Carina, so you're doing great!
