Letter To The New Nanny

I haven’t met you, yet. But I want to tell you about the most amazing little boy. He’s almost three and a little under 40 pounds, and somehow he is the biggest wrecking ball I will ever know. He will wreck your carefully constructed tower, knock over a glass of water with reckless abandon, and…

Overnight Infant love

As my time in Virginia comes to an end, I have a busy schedule trying to see all my babysitting kiddos! While Colorado will pack a lot of adventures, and I’ll have some new babysitting kids, I will ABSOLUTELY miss all my kiddos. Last weekend, I was fortunate enough to see Noah, an adorable 7…

Toddler Overnight Adventures

I spent last weekend with my favorite little guy, C. I’ve overnight sat for C before and it’s always a welcome adventure. I love C and getting to spend the weekend with him is so much fun- but it can be a ton of work. When planning for an overnight job, I try to have…

Fall update

We’ve had a busy summer and fall. Often, it feels like there isn’t a slow second in the day for C and I. C will turn 3 in March and everyday is a reminder of how much he is growing! I’ve loved seeing his personality grow and develop with the weeks. We spent summer working on…

Never met a cuter pumpkin (excavator)!

This year has gone by in a blur! Every month, I find myself wondering how did 2017 go by so fast!? October was no exception for busy months. C and I always keep busy- visiting Target, parks, and of course, so much playing! C enjoyed October by learning about Fall and the leaves falling and…
