Baby bottles in a parking garage

I found myself parking my nanny vehicle in the parking garage of the MAC (Multnomah Athletic Club) where my employers are members for the sole purpose of feeding the babies.

(There was a showing at their house and we were exiled for a few moments smack dab in the middle of lunch feeding while mom and sister were at a playdate.)

I was laughing at the fact that I had just drove a few miles and parked the car in the covered garage (it was raining which was why I went here) just to feed the twins.

From loading to unloading it was exactly and hour of our day from the time we left the house to the time we returned.

As this was my first day of THRIVE I started to laugh even hardeer at the fact that this was a very uneducational & uninteresting moment of the day.... however this is what worked for us as a longer outing at this time that could have included a stroll or people watching at starbucks would have messed with am nap or after lunch baths.

Normally I would have considered this a waisted hour.... but, due to Thrive I realized we could make the most of it.....

So. if you found yourself walking past a white suburban today in a parking garage in downtown portland and head some crazy person standing next to the vehicle's open door singing "Here comes Peter Cottontail" with gusto, you might have wondered what was going on..... simply it was a nanny thriving at her job.

Sure the babies would have been fed just the same if their nanny just stood there checking her facebook on her phone but that would have been just waisting the opportunity to have fun!!!
