Witchy Woman
Dinner time coincides with "witching hour" in our house. The "witching hour" is when Beia is fussy for no apparent reason, and this naturally seems happen when our nanny leaves each day. Through trial and error we've come up with some tactics to help deal with this difficult time. The best solution thus far has been for one of us to wear Beia in the Moby. This allows us to prepare dinner and eat (unless we are eating something hot, which poses another challenge). Whoever ISN'T wearing Beia does the cooking and the other one of us helps prep. If the Moby doesn't work, then we do tag-team dinner where one of us eats while the other soothes Beia, and then switch. Following dinner we try and watch a short tv show while Beia sleeps in the Moby or on Steve. This makes us big fans of half hour shows like Big Bang and Modern Family, and abandon the longer shows with more complex story lines.
