Hi everyone! Welcome to my last blog post assignment for WRT304 I have hopes that I might be able to continue doing this because I really enjoy documenting my days, but with summer picking up and my nanny schedule getting hectic, I can’t make any promises. I only saw Connor on Monday this week, Tuesday was my 21st birthday and Wednesday I had Summer. Connor absolutely amazes me day after day. He started off slowly army crawling and now he…
Welcome back! This blog post is going to be a little short because I am only writing about one day with Connor. I want some advice. His birthday is coming on July 5th and he is going to be ONE! But what do you get a one year old for their birthday? Will they remember it? Will they even like it? Let’s go do some research. Check out this link, it tells us the 23 best gifts for a one…
Welcome back to week 5! The start of this week has been very funky. Monday and Tuesday Connor and I went on a nice long 4.5 mile walk. He absolutely loves being outside. He is very curious too so walking has become one of his most favorite activities! On Wednesday Connor had a pretty rough day. He has been teething really bad and today hit him hard. This morning he had a baby fever and was completely fussy the rest…

Hi everyone! The end of this week went really well. Connor had a bad nap day on Thursday but a super good nap day on Friday. I had to wake him up after 2 hours and 15 minutes! Should you wake a baby from sleep? Not sure, let’s find out. According to Colleen Fisher Tully from Today’s Parent, she says “In other words, don’t sweat an extra 20 minutes, but be prepared to wake them before they’ve clocked an additional…
Thanks for coming back to tune in on another week of nannying! Connor has been so fun this week, I love seeing his personality grow each day. We have had some pretty cool “firsts” this week so far. Connor has been trying some new foods: Nutri-grain bar (LOVED) avocado (hated) banana (liked better to squeeze in his fingers) Connor has also been so super strong on his legs, he keeps pulling himself up on more and more things, and staying!…
Welcome back! Thank you for checking back in to hear about the end of the week. The weather took a turn and got HOT and humid. I feel so bad when Connor is hot because he can’t say “I’m hot, cool me off”, so he just gets crabby and I try and calm him down by holding him which probably makes him more hot! Some good news- we spent a lot of time in the grass and I think he…
Connor and I did a lot of walking in the beginning of this week. He absolutely loves being in his stroller and the fresh air. I love it too because I get to have some exercise while he is either content or napping and he’s right there with me. To be honest, we have been loving the cooler weather. It makes it more tolerable to play outside and not be covered in sticky sunscreen and sweating in the heat. Connor…
