good on you Lu. James will be settled in no time but I understand the tears and separation anxiety - for us mums that is lol.
You will get used to the time out for yourself very quickly. I have already. Had to go see someone today and she wasnt there so had to go after daycare. Anyway took the boys and let them walk ( i have them on the harness leases much safer). Well Keegs was running along the footpath and fell and hit his head. So I cuddled him and carried him so Jaidyn decided he wanted to be carried and decided to sit n the middle of the footpath (in the middle of town might I add) until I did. So picture me carrying 2 screaming toddlers thru town quitely saying under my breathe "if you dont shut the bloody hell up you will be in your prams until you leave home!!!!" Anyway we went to chemist - which might I add is full of ppl - to get somethime for Keegs head. Jaidyn threw self on floor again, I picked him up to leave keegs ran away went to chase him smacked Jaidyns head on the makeup stand in process sending makeup flying. Sales lady says dont worry about it and Im thinking "dont worry lady Im not" lol. Go to bank...sweet they have lots of pieces of paper to write on. Yay. Go to leave Jaidyn wont get up both boys screaming at this point and Keegs telling every1 hes hurt - good look for me haha. Old man tries to help to no avail. Walk out without him - bugger that doesnt work anymore. He just laid back on the floor and screamed louder. Picked him up - so again carrying 2 toddlers and bribe them with a toy at the $2 shop. I am the best mum lol. Anyway they have never behaved like that before so I put it down to still adjusting to daycare. But gotta say love it for when i can do those town things without the lads.

It made me laugh!! - The times you rarely get to do things on your own you feel "lost" with out them, yet when they are there in their "bad" moods you want to get rid of them for a while so you can do it in peace...

Oh Marlene!! What a rough day!! Did give the rest of us a wee chuckle tho!!
My only tragic tanty-in-public moment was a MASSIVE wobbly at the zoo, I was so embarrassed that when a nice old woman stopped to ask if she could help, I told her that she could keep him!?
And back to the daycare countdown! Quinn starts on Monday! He has his first trial without me being there last Monday, I dropped him of, give him a kiss and a cuddle and he couldn't wait to be rid of me! No crying, barely even a wave or glance in my direction! I wasn't quite sure what to do with myself, so I wandered around the shops for half an hour by myself! BLISS!!

Oh Marlene, Maya on her own is bad enough, I can't even imagine having two! Big hugs to you for being such a great Mum!
Anna - Glad to hear Quinn settled in OK on his own. I enjoy the time to myself too - even tho I have to work it's sometimes nice to just be able to go to the toilet without getting "MuuuuuuuM"

Yay! I didn't even think about being allowed to go to the toilet by myself!! What a novelty!!
When I went to the drs for the pregnancy test Quinn insisted on following me in there as well!! Never mind the oodles of toys they had, he wants to come with me while I pee!!

My toilet is in the laundry - one of those old style houses so the boys dont follow me in thankfully. I just have to pee fast so I can get back to them before they get into anything!!!!  So I guess my bonus for when they arent here is I can relax on the loo (TMI!!) lol.
Go Quinn for the daycare. The boys are the same and although at first I was sad that they didnt care lees about me going Im glad as Its so much easier for the mum not to have to leave a sad child.
