Not quite...
Actually, Hans and I were just talking today about when I should head back to work. The idea was to return after a year, which would mean dropping the Baby off at daycare once they turn one... And now we're both wondering if that's even a good move 🤷 considering how much time they'll have spent away from us 🤷 but we have to give our employer an answer within two weeks at the latest, especially with those massive daycare waiting lists.

We're on the ground floor, sort of... elevated. We've got a yard with a lot of bushes. 🕺

Yesterday was Thursday, and traffic in New York City is always a nightmare on a weekday.

Yesterday I was offline for almost three hours—just a typical weekday dealing with rush hour in New York City.🤷

Third diaper tonight, and we’re (successfully👍) getting the Baby down to sleep.

I’m counting sheep just to stay sane.>

The little guy has a massive appetite so we’re making sure he gets huge portions, plus we'll have two people feeding him. 🙂

Walter Baker2 said:Sure, you can trust Wiki since he's experienced with childcare and typing, but Hans is just clumsy and totally green.

So, how did it go when you watched your very first Baby all by yourself back when you were still clueless? 🍿

Raymond Newman2 said:How did Hans's first solo shift go, or is he still stuck working on it today?

It went great! 🎉

Anthony Nguyen81 said:Is everything good? 😁

Yeah.

Hans actually pulled it off!! 🎉 🎉 🎉

As if anyone actually wants to hear someone pour their heart out about such deeply personal stuff here ☕

Or maybe I'll just find ones like this 😁

Nicole Myers said:maybe the baby will be asleep by then.
And Hans too. 🤣

We'll see 😬

Anyway, he’s not leaving the house at that hour tomorrow, so he’ll just be staying put in bed with the baby. (That way, I can give Josh some peace of mind 😁).
He spent an entire hour feeding today, so I’m going to prep a double dose of milk for tomorrow to cover those two hours. 🥳

I’m with you, Baz. They need to start building that bond—and that trust—right now. Once those typical father-son clashes hit, it’ll already be too late.

Josh 🙂 Hans is actually one of the most level-headed guys I know; he just needs to work on his confidence. If things go sideways tomorrow, they've still got that punk neighbor ready to step in and help out. 🙂

By the way, it's also a chance for Hans to get closer to the little 🥳

Grace Sanders24 said:NOT EVEN AN OPTION! You really think I'm driving two hours for that? Seriously, have some shame. Why don't you just push it back fifteen years instead!😲🙂

Go tell Hans 🤷 since he thinks I should be the one to handle this while he stays home with the baby🍿

Do you think I should bother calling my aunt to come over for just those two hours?🤔

Wikipedia said:🍿😁

What was it actually like for you when you were home alone with the baby for the first time?

hiddenmarlin14 said:he’s doing that on purpose, pinching him just so he starts throwing a tantrum over you😬

That little trick isn't going to work tomorrow. For once, I'll actually have two hours alone with the baby.😁

... and notarized by a local notary ☕

Of course, I'm joking (before Josh: 🙂), but there’s this growing obsession with me lately. And whenever Hans holds him, the little guy just starts wailing.🤷 So, I’ve started pumping milk so Hans can feed him too.

Walter Baker2 said:Now Grace Anderson3 and Hans are just going to fight over who gets to run to the baby first, and in a few months we'll see

I’ve been keeping track of every single diaper change just so I have my arguments ready... ☕

🙂 (translation: grabbing some stuff and then crashing)
