From a while back...

During my last post, I mentioned that our summer nanny had to go to court, now I am not sure what happened there, but regardless she never showed up at our house again. She did not call, write, send an email or communicate in anyway, so we really don't know what happened.

Initially this threw the Clarkson household into a tail spin, what are we going to do? The way that we worked was predicated on the assumption that we would have a help at least a couple of days a week. After spending a week or so trying to find someone else, Tracy decided that we should just give it a try without having a nanny. We have a trip planned for mid August anyway and it did not seem to make a lot of sense to try and find a consistent part time help when we were really not going to be around.

Well, I think much to our surprise this has actually worked out pretty well, I know that Tracy is definately a lot busier with the kids than she was before, but the kids are becoming a ton of fun, they are both crawling around and developing personalities, laughing and are fun to play with. The also means if Tracy wants to get 'other stuff done' that she has to trust that I can take care of the kids, so a couple of weeks ago she left me alone with them and I made this little video.

The kids were about 9 and 1/2 months when this was made.

Again, because the blogger video thing sucks, I have used youtube
