Back to work, back at home

svosen · 10-03-2005, 10:19 AM

Today is my wife's first day back at work following the birth of our second son.

That means I'm going back to taking Monday's off to watch the two boys. The youngest is napping now, and the older one is watching Veggie Tales, in case you're worried about my parenting

Anyhow, I'm a little nervous about it. I'm totally comfortable with the older boy; I know his schedule, and I'm very used to taking care of him. The youngest one, though, is still new to me. Since my wife's been home, I've been working quite a bit, so I haven't really gotten used to his schedule & particular needs. I've only spent some evening time playing with him.

So, hopefully it'll work out. I can tell you, though, that having two little kids to care for at the same time is much different than only one...

Veggie tales own you!!!

Well I'd say you'll either have it all organised in a month or so or you'll be sat in a corner tearing your hair out; Mumbling incoherently.

I have no doubts in your ability to pick up the routine but if you have doubts you'll certainly be heading for trouble. xxx

thanks for the encouragement.

However, Gabe, if I were going to go sit and mumble, it wouldn't be in the corner. I'd have to get someplace high enough the little munchkins couldn't reach me
