Whoa! Two Skullbrain baby girls born on the same day, that's awesome! Congrats, she's beautiful!! And thanks everyone, we're pretty well smitten with Annabel!
Aw, Skullbrain twins, and both unbelievable cuties. Definitely would melt any giant monster's heart. Congrats G!! May you get to enjoy your toys all over again through new eyes, as she discovers each one in that way only kids can.
I'm going back to work tomorrow after nine months on parental leave. While I'm honestly glad to be going back despite the fact I hate my job, these months have given me great insight on the hardship of being at home with multiple kids. While it is meaningless to thank my wife on skullbrain, I just want to take a few minutes to encourage you to appreciate the psychological stress your other half is going through if staying at home. People can say whatever they want about child-rearing being its own reward blahblahblah, it's hard, weirdly romanticized, and it frankly is a long line of sucking interspaced with moments of pure bliss. You live for those, but they're not enough to stay sane. Support your partner, love her/him, do whatever you can to ease their burden. It will get better in a few years, but for now... They sure need it. And single parents? Crazy. Just crazy.
I can't wait to go back to work. As a stay at home dad... its been the hardest thing I've ever done. I couldn't imagine going thru any of this alone. Hats of to anyone who is doing it.
^^^ Agreed. Work actually seemed like a vacation. A lot of respect to those that can stay at home. I know I wasn't able to.
Congratulations! Another new SBer-in-training to start pawing up those detolfs of lovely toys you have. Wonderful news!
It's a girl! Baby Dean Caroline Bucalos arrived the morning of 9/11 at 3:40 a.m. Weighing in at an elegant 7 lbs even and 20.5" long. Here she is meeting her brother for the first time! And finally, her toy collection is off to a great start (next to the bird house her brother Anthony made for her)
Congrats Ben. I have been thinking of setting up a shelf for my son too when he is born in November. Start them early!!
Thank you all! Yea it's fun to get them started, my 4 yr has a shelf in one of my detolfs! He loves his robots and even puts a few of his "customs" in there And congrats on your soon so be arrival Organic!
