Babysitter and the Door

Today I left Chance with a baby

sitter for the first time. A babysitter taht isn't related that is. I hired a sitting service, the same one that sits for a lot of the hotels in the area. They are a 24 hour service so I thought they would be great for when Scott and I want to go out at night too. The woman was very nice and I felt comfortable with her. I had a doctor's appointment this morning at 9:15am so Chance had just woken up when the sitter arrived this morning. Having never left him before I was a little nervous but she was professional and friendly and immidately started tlaking to Chance and playing with him. I kissed him and told him I would be back soon and left. She said he didn't cry much when I left she started playing with him and he was fine. There was a six hour minimum

with the sitting service so I decided to take the extra time for myself. I didn't do an excellent job with this because I jsut went shopping and bought stuff for Chance but it is a start. I want to get a baby sitter once per week just to give me time to get out of the house to myself as well as do things like doctor's appointments and things Scott and I want to do when he is here. When I came back home (an hour early) Chance was sleeping but he must have heard my voice because he woke up, the sitter went in to get him as I was still putting down my things and he came ot with a huge smile on his face. He bounced up and down and smiled at me and then she put him down and he crawled right over. When she left he crawled after her to the door and when she shut the door he whined like he didn't want her to go. We waved bye through the glass door. I think he had a good time with her.

He is learning so many new things with all the crawling and today he opened and closed the door to his bedroom at least twenty times. He had a lot of fun until he pushed it close and couldn't open it again and then Mommy had to open it back up for him to play some more. I also put my head band on him which you can see in the last picture. It doesn't make him look girly just cuter.
