This is Ruby’s puzzled look before she recognized me and did her popcorn jumps.

Our new nanny, Celina, started yesterday morning. She documented all of the day’s happenings in a white binder. I flipped through the binder and read over each baby’s feeds, appetites, diapers and naps. The binder also contained important emergency contact info and a quick medical cheat sheet. Pretty thorough, eh?

One of the pluses of have a nanny is you (the parent) can finally have some time to yourself—whatever your little heart wants for the next four glorious hours. So Dominic took Ruby and met me for lunch. We headed to the Carts and got fish and chips. Then Dominic and Ruby headed to Laurelhurst Park to sniff some dog butt.

I’m pretty happy with myself for finding our new nanny in record time. I’m going to pat myself on the back for this one!
