It's our first day with our new nanny.
To say everything right now is overwhelming is kind of an understatement. Doodle loves our nanny. He can't get enough of her. The baby ... not so much.
The baby wants me. I want to go and comfort her, and I can't. I mean, I can, but the truth is that I need to let her know our nanny is her friend. And I know it will all work out. But right now it's hard. It sucks to have the baby monitor on and listen and not go in and help.
But, it could be worse.
It could be worse because I could be going to work tomorrow - not next week.
I could be leaving my kids with somoene I don't like.
I could be putting them in a daycare when I'm not ready. Yes. This is good. But, it's also hard.

This is me
Me and the Fam
- LD
- Toronto, Ontario, Canada
- I'm a zany mom to a little boy and a baby girl. My house is rarely clean, my life is kind of frazzled, but I'm happy and wouldn't change a thing! My son, Doodle, is energetic, crazy and one of the sweetest children you will ever meet. My baby, Coco, is almost one. She's full of energy and is total personality! I've been blogging for a couple of years now, but recently decided to move to a space that gives me a little more anonymity. I've been married for almost 7 years to "Phat Daddy" a wonderful man who is my complete opposite. He's calm when I'm hyper. He's quiet and I'm talkative. We bicker a lot but we love each other intensely. I work in marketing and communications, downtown Toronto but enjoying my maternity leave right now.

It will work out - it'll just take a little time.
You have SO many people at work excited about your return!!
I bet this is hard for you, but take it day by day...you will get there, in that more comfortable place! The baby will come around, give her time. She's at that age.
