  • Tomorrow I'll get another one

    yes it's a baby.

    Tomorrow. They have to do a C-section so we know it's tomorrow. My boy is alright, but his shoulders are too wide so they don't want to risk it because then if he gets stuck from his shoulders, the doc would have to break his collar bone... and that potentially risks damage to nerves(spelling?) so they just opted for getting it out Julius style.

    So it's another one, a new addition to SC family. Big sister is now upstairs "sleeping", I mean she is sleeping but she's also kicking the wall and making noises. She does that. Talks in her sleep. Weird stuff too. She's only 18 months but seems to have nightmares about Santa, and demands bread, cheese, mom and dad. Sometimes she claims stuff "Mine!". That's always fun, when you have slept 2 hours and have 2 hours more until you have to get up to work, to wake up to "MINE!". Who argued against? No one! Hey, what do you want, I'll give it to you so I can sleep sometimes. So now it'll be times 2. Except I bet there's synergy so it's more like 1 + 1 = 3. Or maybe 4.

    But who cares. Sleep is overrated. When they start fighting, I'm sure it'll be all worth it. Breaking each others stuff, not sharing toys, just being ridiculous and difficult. It's easy to control one baby. Two is a different matter. They're beasts. Explorers with tendency to do all that is forbidden, and EVERYTHING IS FORBIDDEN! You don't get it until you realize how babies get hurt and what a dangerous place your house is. Times two, now.

    But seriously, tomorrow will be a good day

    Isn't it amazing how soon they start to disappoint you.

      That's awesome, Pekka!
      I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

        Yeah. And they really aren't that smart either. We just lower the bar SO LOW when judging them.

        But then again, it's not like we're that smart. Sometimes babies are smarter than adults. Perhaps their reality trumps ours. We do everything for them, so who is the idiot in this picture?

          I'll get smarter and place my laptop on my lap at all times. Maybe wifi will do the job. Or battery.

            Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

                    Thanks everyone!

                    Yeah, it'll be tomorrow. After tomorrow, we're done having kids.

                    This is what people without kids don't realize; kids are so much work you really don't have life anymore. Every single second of your life is noise, this house is nothing but noise, I can't eat, wake up slowly, I can't go to the bathroom in peace... there's nothing I can do in peace. I GO TO WORK and rest. Working is resting. No crying, no checking on someone every other second to see what they're doing now...

                    ... the other thing there is no sleep either. It's like tough when you get up few times a night? No it isn't. Not ever sleeping is tough. And no one cares you're tired. You can't show up at work looking how you feel. Just smile. Nobody cares. I don't exist. I'm just a ... support vehicle for my kids. I'm a robot. I like being a robot. Robot like me, I like robot, we are one, singularity achieved, robot take over.
