it's the thread where I have another kid very soon

Post by ixnay (?) » Wed Oct 10, 2018 3:33 pm

Since one kid apparently wasn't enough, we decided to have another 2 years later and now the new baby's due date is just 2 weeks away. But it's getting to that point where he could show up at any time :flail:

The new car has both car seats in it and the go bag is packed and ready to be grabbed if needed. Mom is doing pretty good despite needing to spend a lot of time resting in bed. And our current kid has been reading lots of books about being a big brother and having a new baby in the house so hopefully he is good too!

One nice thing compared to last time is that instead of having to use up all my vacation & sick time afterwards, now I get 12 weeks of paid paternity leave so I look forward to plenty of bonding time (or time spent wrangling the older kid while he gets into everything)

it's happening! :flail: :flail: :flail:

in all seriousness, all the best to everyone involved!! :yay: :awesomedash:

We’re in the hospital now :flail:

In triage trying to find out if this is a false alarm or if it’s actually happening

I shared a birthday with my grandma. :3:

On the day I turned 7, she turned 70, so for a decade you could add the digits of her age and get my age.

sleeping, at home with the sitter

Things are progressing nicely at the hospital! There’s really nothing for me to do here at this point!

We went with Liam as the name and gave him my brothers name for a middle name (since I have the world’s greatest brother)

He looks so much like his brother, with a rounder face and chubbier cheeks :3:

hey yall

We're doing well and are tired all the time but things are going fine. Honestly keeping the 2-year old active and entertained has been the hardest and most draining part of the past few weeks

now that this is all done, I get to go into surgery this week to make sure that we never have any more kids ✂️✂️
