2 is exponentially harder! It is cool seeing them interact the last 2 weeks...ya been 2 weeks.

we have been setting up play dates with people from our Tri club. There is a group of 4 or so with kids within a year of each other. So we have our older one playing with 2 others and then there are 2 others that are stationary. We did notice a difference when she started going to day care, so I think school will fill that sibling void.

Originally posted by DJ RANN Dude , I love that place. They have the real space shuttle there and I was basically 9 years old again the moment I got in that room. The dinos are cool but if you're (Er, I mean your kids) in to that you need to go to London for the Natural History museum.

yeah! it was pretty dope! I recall going there for one of our company christmas parties (our CEO is on the board) and we were all getting drunk next to the shuttle. What I really thought was cool and surprising was that they had the space command modules (or whatever they're called). I was surprised how little room that astronauts had in there.

Definitely bringing her back! Daddy has to try one of those burritos in the food court too

Yo congrats on the new addition Boomer! Hope you, kid and mom are doing well and hope you can get some sleep when you can. I don't have kids but I imagine they don't let you sleep much.

Mr. Bot! Thanks man, we are all well. They let you sleep, but for very brief periods of time.

Since he is sleeping now and I am making a bad choice of staying awake I'll describe a typical night. I wake when he cries, undress him to his diaper, and then hand to momma for milk. I snooze for about 30 mins and when he's done I change and dress him and put him to sleep...and then I go back to sleep. He wakes around 12, 2:30-3, 5-6am. So that is like 5 or 6 hours of interrupted sleep. Mainly feels like jet lag. But we are lucky he actually sleeps when he should. Most parents are up way more!

Another successful potty use!

I wish I had the mental and physical strength to have a child of my own. I wonder what's it like to see your son or daughter come into this world for the first time.

Here's a round of cranberry cocktail juice on Boomer for his 2nd child.

It's even more of a trip when your child is a spitting image of your significant other, lol. So often my mind is blown, thinking, "This is my child? This is my child!" Someone so connected to you yet so much their own person, it's heavy in the best way. Just in awe watching her become who she is!

Hmm, quite difficult for me to put that into perspective since I don't have any children but yeah I see what you mean. I think life has it trials and my beginning was quite rough but I still came through and saw what life has to offer. At this point I'm trying my best to take advantage from the mistakes I made in the past and putting effort in making a better world for myself and others.

Ideally that's what we all are/should be doing. Personal growth isn't a final destination, it's a lifelong journey.

Note taken, agreed

Imo, this saying from Napoleon is somehow forming around me, "Great achievement is usually born of great sacrifice, and is never the result of selfishness." I don't want to go into great detail how that quote resembles my tribulations because that info is quite personal to me. I think life is is to precious to be wasted in manner of speaking.

Congrats Boomer! Good luck with #2. Time does nothing but zoom by, so I'm sure it will be a blast watching them be siblings. And yeah, Jenny is right, the kids will be just fine but once they grow up, oof, all bets are off.

Thanks! Time is flying and they are growing.

And some fun times last night. The older one had a fever so we gave her some motrin before bed. Well we were up at 3 nursing lil dude and I heard her crying. We pulled up the monitor while searching for more motrin and I see the back of her PJs as she is crawling right over the top of her crib! Took her a bit to calm down and go back to sleep and she has a little mark on her head, but dang we knew she'd be getting over the top but were hoping for more time.

Hah! I don't think ours has any interest in crawling out of her crib any time soon, she loves it! I'm the one itching to convert to a toddler bed. :/

so we get our kid potty trained but she won't poo in her potty bowl. she likes to hide off in the corner (like behind the curtains/drapes) and shit. She's definitely has some sort of fear of doo-ing the deed in potty. Fortunately, here poos' haven't been a terrible cleanup.

oh god

It's 4th of July tomorrow here in the states. Taking our daughter to the Hollywood Bowl for her first concert. Nile Rodgers and Chic are performing so it'll be some old school disco and fireworks.

Although it's not his birthday yet, we had my son's 10th birthday party today and went jumping at such a indoor jumping paradise.
What I actually wanted to say was that he's starting to listen to EDM So HELLLLPPPP

You'll know once he knows how to embed vids

I feel like I need to "toughen" up my (3) daughter. She's a sweet girl but I see other kids try to push her, take things from her, or just bother her (not bullying but just kids being kids and not knowing boundaries yet). But her reaction is to put her hands up and give in or cry in defeat. I've been trying to tell her to tell other to say "STOP IT PLEASE!" in a loud voice. Should I get her into jiu jitus or krav maga classes yet? I'm sure I'm just being an overprotective dad

You're missing out on a baby clothing marketing opportunity, Del!

My little kid is 4 months-old. All the cliches were true. It does change you!

Glad everyone seems to be enjoying parenthood!

Babe stayed over at the inlaws' last night, and every time I wake up to her not being home it's such a weird feeling. On one hand it's nice to start the day at our own pace, but on the other it feels...pointless? Purposeless? Can't think of the right word... without her. Like the time to ourselves is great but I always want to be with her, heh. My sweet angel!

Aww, that's so sweet. I see where you are coming from. Although I do like a non-kid morning once in a while...

But it is so much fun waking them up!

We had a shock this last weekend. After our christening one of our good friends, mom of 11 month old twins had a ruptured aneurysm and passed away. totally gutted all week so far. But we've been squeezing our kids tighter.

Holy shit! That is so tragic.. heart wrenching! Really sorry Boomer. My heartfelt condolences to you all. I can't imagine losing a friend like that.
