Why a blog?

Well, I'm pregnant. I think that's when a lot of people start blogs. Basically, to keep a written record of everything that's going on because half of it already falls out of my head. And anyone reading this is welcome to follow along.

I've been a nanny off-and-on since I was about 15 (I'm 29 now), I have a degree in Child Development, and I've been working with new parents and babies for the last year-and-a-half. So everyone thinks it should be really interesting to see how I handle my own kid after having so much experience with others.

Will I follow any of my own rules? Only time will tell.
