While Mommy's Away...Mia and the Nanny will Play

























About a month ago, I hired a nanny to take care of Mia in the house. I really like the place she was but this allows me to be there when she wakes up to read her a book or two and have lunch with her when I'm able. I work full-time from home and this has been a great situation for me. No stress in the morning, Mia sleeps in her own bed, wakes when she feels like it and Jamie fills her day with plenty of social activites.


Some people (My family) think I'm too strict with Mia's diet. No sugar, juice, fried foods, candy or cake (except for Birthdays). I've noticed over the last month or two that it has become much more difficult to control what she eats or drinks. Quite frankly, I find myself caring less and less. For example, she came back from the Zoo (which is a whole other story) and Jamie told me they stopped for French Fries. Honestly, it didn't even bother me compared to the gum she has been chewing lately, I think it is probably a better choice. Now the Zoo, on the other hand, is another issue.
