Nanny Crisis

We ran into some trouble with our hired help recently. Our night nurse announced that she was going to Cape Town for a two week assignment and our day nurse got sick. The night nurse however managed to find us a replacement who is standing in for her at the moment, however we thought the day nurse would be coming back any day. So Anina has been on full day duty for the last two weeks which has been really hectic. Last week the day nurse announced she was not coming back. So today Anina interviewed new potential candidates. Our chosen one, Jane, is starting tomorrow. We all hope she will work out well.

The kids went for their first outing to the shops on Saturday. We did this in style and went to Sandton City. Dylan slept most of the time and Emma was awake in pieces. We had lunch during which both kids slept very well even though there was lots of hustle and bustle around them.

We finally managed to find a shop that sells baby scales (Italian made in China) so that now we can weight the kids our selves. Today Dylan weighed 4.24 kg and Emma 4.27 kg. The scale is accurate to 10g. This is way more accurate than trying to use the bathroom scale. According to the bathroom scale they already weighed 4.5kg last week.

Some more pics mainly of Emma this time:
