00:00:12,670 --> 00:00:21,050
This is the gray hair and daycare podcast with a combined age of 111 years and a combined IQ right in that same range.
2
00:00:21,510 --> 00:00:25,630
Your hosts, Frank Sirio and Carlo Russo.
3
00:00:27,250 --> 00:00:28,650
Welcome back.
4
00:00:28,650 --> 00:00:30,230
Welcome back guys.
5
00:00:30,510 --> 00:00:32,410
We're here the episode six.
6
00:00:32,570 --> 00:00:32,990
Six.
7
00:00:33,050 --> 00:00:33,590
Six.
8
00:00:34,510 --> 00:00:40,610
We don't, nobody's even seen four or five, but we're just trying to get ahead.
9
00:00:41,330 --> 00:00:42,450
So we're back for six.
10
00:00:42,550 --> 00:00:43,650
Yes, we are back for six.
11
00:00:44,050 --> 00:00:45,330
Very excited to be back.
12
00:00:45,570 --> 00:00:48,710
This is week 23.
13
00:00:49,250 --> 00:00:49,810
Already.
14
00:00:50,390 --> 00:00:50,830
It's moving.
15
00:00:51,310 --> 00:00:53,250
It's flying by.
16
00:00:53,370 --> 00:00:53,930
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
17
00:00:53,930 --> 00:00:54,810
It is flying by.
18
00:00:54,810 --> 00:01:03,230
Even with thinking back through everything that has happened as a part of this, this whole thing, it absolutely is flying by.
19
00:01:04,209 --> 00:01:05,670
So what's the latest update?
20
00:01:06,170 --> 00:01:07,170
Let's figure it out.
21
00:01:07,310 --> 00:01:10,390
Less appetizing this week than we've had in previous weeks.
22
00:01:10,670 --> 00:01:11,810
It's an ear of corn.
23
00:01:12,370 --> 00:01:14,390
So my little girl is the size of an ear of corn.
24
00:01:14,710 --> 00:01:16,150
I love corn.
25
00:01:16,230 --> 00:01:18,550
I know I keep saying I love everything that you do so far.
26
00:01:18,610 --> 00:01:19,590
You like a lot of vegetables.
27
00:01:19,770 --> 00:01:20,570
Yeah, there's a lot.
28
00:01:20,750 --> 00:01:21,830
You must be very healthy.
29
00:01:22,150 --> 00:01:24,210
No, I'm not, but I love it.
30
00:01:24,210 --> 00:01:26,190
I love it with hamburgers and pizza.
31
00:01:26,270 --> 00:01:27,690
Okay, hamburgers, pizza.
32
00:01:27,870 --> 00:01:33,850
So she's the size of a lean ear of corn, long and lean.
33
00:01:34,250 --> 00:01:41,170
So this is the point, though, where she will start to get chubbier.
34
00:01:41,510 --> 00:01:43,550
So basically she starts to get.
35
00:01:43,650 --> 00:01:44,610
The corn's going to pop.
36
00:01:44,690 --> 00:01:45,290
Yes, cute.
37
00:01:45,430 --> 00:01:47,150
She's going to get cuter from here.
38
00:01:47,150 --> 00:01:47,870
Cuter face.
39
00:01:48,210 --> 00:01:52,430
But also a unique thing right now, still translucent.
40
00:01:53,210 --> 00:01:55,290
Oh, I don't know how that superpower.
41
00:01:56,810 --> 00:01:58,430
She can just disappear.
42
00:01:58,470 --> 00:01:59,450
She's an X-Men.
43
00:02:00,570 --> 00:02:01,250
That's it.
44
00:02:01,530 --> 00:02:04,750
So it's still translucent, but that's where we are.
45
00:02:04,850 --> 00:02:05,610
That's where we are.
46
00:02:05,730 --> 00:02:05,950
Yeah.
47
00:02:06,210 --> 00:02:06,650
23.
48
00:02:07,130 --> 00:02:14,130
23 weeks, ear of corn, long and lean, starting to get chubby, which would be supported by some of the things we're talking.
49
00:02:14,210 --> 00:02:18,250
We'll talk about later with Kelly's new dining habits.
50
00:02:18,370 --> 00:02:18,690
Okay.
51
00:02:18,790 --> 00:02:19,950
Can't wait to hear that.
52
00:02:20,030 --> 00:02:20,610
It's going well.
53
00:02:20,670 --> 00:02:21,010
Going well.
54
00:02:21,010 --> 00:02:22,470
We're going to try out now.
55
00:02:23,010 --> 00:02:24,350
I figured this would come.
56
00:02:24,470 --> 00:02:29,830
We even talked about it a little bit, but more from thinking of Trina in the last episode.
57
00:02:30,250 --> 00:02:40,230
But it is as I go through and edit, Kelly wants to be helpful and she listens and watches and points out as she does throughout my regular life when I'm wrong.
58
00:02:42,050 --> 00:02:44,330
So this is going to be a new segment.
59
00:02:44,410 --> 00:02:45,730
I'm not sure what we're going to call it.
60
00:02:45,870 --> 00:02:46,030
Okay.
61
00:02:46,030 --> 00:02:52,510
Maybe it just, she suggested, uh, because I almost never say it that we just call it.
62
00:02:52,650 --> 00:02:53,210
I was wrong.
63
00:02:53,370 --> 00:02:53,890
I was wrong.
64
00:02:54,030 --> 00:02:55,810
So that's here we are.
65
00:02:55,830 --> 00:02:57,090
I mean, that's right to the point.
66
00:02:57,250 --> 00:02:57,390
Yeah.
67
00:02:57,390 --> 00:02:57,990
I was wrong.
68
00:02:58,190 --> 00:02:58,750
I was wrong.
69
00:02:58,970 --> 00:03:03,710
So at this moment it's called, I was wrong until we come up with a better thing.
70
00:03:03,770 --> 00:03:05,590
It might be the permanent name by the time we get through.
71
00:03:05,870 --> 00:03:06,430
Here's another contest.
72
00:03:06,770 --> 00:03:07,070
No, I'm kidding.
73
00:03:07,210 --> 00:03:07,870
No, no more contest.
74
00:03:08,330 --> 00:03:09,530
So I was wrong.
75
00:03:09,690 --> 00:03:10,370
Here we are.
76
00:03:10,470 --> 00:03:10,790
Okay.
77
00:03:10,950 --> 00:03:16,190
So the few things that we figured out, if you recall back to, I'm not sure what episode we talked about.
78
00:03:16,330 --> 00:03:16,770
Meconium.
79
00:03:17,270 --> 00:03:17,710
Yes.
80
00:03:17,810 --> 00:03:21,850
And I, yes, I thought it was Krypton tonight.
81
00:03:23,850 --> 00:03:24,290
Meconium.
82
00:03:24,390 --> 00:03:31,890
And Kelly thought it was important for me to point out that if they do happen to the Meconium comes out in the womb.
83
00:03:32,090 --> 00:03:32,530
Yeah.
84
00:03:32,770 --> 00:03:36,090
Cause it could happen there or in the birth canal or later.
85
00:03:36,190 --> 00:03:38,870
Cause we said prior to this, we said it's okay.
86
00:03:38,990 --> 00:03:39,430
Anywhere.
87
00:03:39,590 --> 00:03:40,030
Yes.
88
00:03:40,110 --> 00:03:40,290
Right.
89
00:03:40,650 --> 00:03:43,070
And apparently it is not.
90
00:03:43,410 --> 00:03:44,190
No, really.
91
00:03:44,310 --> 00:03:44,690
That's a bit.
92
00:03:44,710 --> 00:03:44,870
Yeah.
93
00:03:44,870 --> 00:03:52,070
So it is basically, if it happens in the womb, it is, it is a sign of, of fetal distress.
94
00:03:52,110 --> 00:03:53,370
So that's not a good thing.
95
00:03:54,050 --> 00:03:57,250
So that, if that happens, not, not a good thing.
96
00:03:57,490 --> 00:03:59,670
So there's my, I was wrong there.
97
00:03:59,950 --> 00:04:07,390
The other thing, just in the last episode, we were talking about mama and dad, and I was wrong there too.
98
00:04:07,390 --> 00:04:14,550
Cause I said, I thought that mama was the easy one, but no Ms are much harder to say than D's.
99
00:04:14,650 --> 00:04:15,329
So was that right?
100
00:04:15,510 --> 00:04:17,390
You're so dot, dot new segment.
101
00:04:17,649 --> 00:04:18,370
I was right.
102
00:04:18,470 --> 00:04:19,850
It's not just that I was wrong.
103
00:04:20,470 --> 00:04:21,410
Carla was right.
104
00:04:21,790 --> 00:04:24,850
So I also said, he also said clock first.
105
00:04:25,010 --> 00:04:25,410
That's right.
106
00:04:25,450 --> 00:04:25,890
Clock.
107
00:04:26,070 --> 00:04:26,550
That's right.
108
00:04:26,890 --> 00:04:30,310
So Dada is the Dada is the easy one, not the mama.
109
00:04:30,470 --> 00:04:30,690
Okay.
110
00:04:31,090 --> 00:04:37,190
And the last thing was when we were talking about, we were talking about the fruit cake and I was saying it was cognac.
111
00:04:37,250 --> 00:04:38,130
It is not cognac.
112
00:04:38,250 --> 00:04:39,730
It is brandy.
113
00:04:39,730 --> 00:04:40,090
Okay.
114
00:04:40,510 --> 00:04:42,010
Brandy equally strong.
115
00:04:43,190 --> 00:04:46,110
So, but so it is brandy, not cognac.
116
00:04:46,130 --> 00:04:49,110
If you're going to try to make, did I say I was going to taste that on the show?
117
00:04:49,270 --> 00:04:49,730
You did.
118
00:04:49,810 --> 00:04:54,390
I told her she was excited at first, but then she's like, I probably won't make any.
119
00:04:54,410 --> 00:04:55,410
Cause I can't eat it.
120
00:04:55,530 --> 00:04:56,130
That's right.
121
00:04:56,170 --> 00:04:58,330
Cause she can't have anything with alcohol.
122
00:04:58,490 --> 00:05:02,390
These are fake brandies and scotches and without alcohol.
123
00:05:02,630 --> 00:05:04,990
Well, you can get the taste without the, that's what I suggested.
124
00:05:05,030 --> 00:05:07,670
I'm like, we could just burn the alcohol off, off of the brandy.
125
00:05:08,730 --> 00:05:09,590
But we'll see.
126
00:05:09,590 --> 00:05:15,450
I think just the idea that you're going to try it might be enough for her to give it a shot.
127
00:05:15,770 --> 00:05:17,950
This pastry of what we were talking about this.
128
00:05:18,490 --> 00:05:20,430
I don't see how that would be possible.
129
00:05:21,210 --> 00:05:22,770
No, maybe, I don't know.
130
00:05:22,990 --> 00:05:30,010
Well, you've got to be able to buy it because usually when you see, when you see the people giving it as gifts, it's like wrapped up and stuff.
131
00:05:30,410 --> 00:05:32,550
So maybe it doesn't, maybe you can buy it.
132
00:05:32,650 --> 00:05:32,790
Yeah.
133
00:05:32,890 --> 00:05:36,070
If she doesn't, if Kelly does not want to make it, we will purchase it.
134
00:05:36,070 --> 00:05:38,150
We're going to buy some, it'll be fantastic.
135
00:05:38,150 --> 00:05:40,770
And okay.
136
00:05:41,110 --> 00:05:41,810
We can give it a try.
137
00:05:42,070 --> 00:05:43,590
It's just, you don't even want to think about it.
138
00:05:43,590 --> 00:05:44,190
It really is.
139
00:05:44,250 --> 00:05:48,070
I like, I just don't like it, but I can't even say I don't like it.
140
00:05:48,230 --> 00:05:50,830
I can't even bring myself to try it.
141
00:05:50,910 --> 00:05:52,130
Like it's like, no, it's not.
142
00:05:52,710 --> 00:05:56,650
But anyway, if you want to go for it, everything else I'm going to do on this.
143
00:05:56,890 --> 00:05:57,350
That's right.
144
00:05:57,970 --> 00:06:00,290
You're going to be like, you're like my stunt man.
145
00:06:00,790 --> 00:06:03,250
Like here, try some of this.
146
00:06:03,310 --> 00:06:04,530
I know what I signed up for.
147
00:06:06,010 --> 00:06:06,810
That'll be it.
148
00:06:06,930 --> 00:06:07,210
Okay.
149
00:06:07,770 --> 00:06:13,130
So that, that is the inaugural episode of you were wrong.
150
00:06:13,230 --> 00:06:13,730
I was wrong.
151
00:06:14,250 --> 00:06:14,890
You were right.
152
00:06:15,210 --> 00:06:16,750
See, I can say, I can say it.
153
00:06:16,830 --> 00:06:20,990
It's once in a great while.
154
00:06:21,530 --> 00:06:26,450
So now we can move on to what has become a fan favorite.
155
00:06:26,830 --> 00:06:28,050
The book report.
156
00:06:28,230 --> 00:06:36,330
My God, people are clamoring for my insight into these literary masterworks.
157
00:06:36,330 --> 00:06:37,510
What do we got this week?
158
00:06:37,730 --> 00:06:41,970
So we're doing two at a time because I'm sick of doing that.
159
00:06:42,150 --> 00:06:43,590
I'm just sick of doing the dog ones.
160
00:06:43,810 --> 00:06:46,750
So this is not, if they're bad, you're going to tell us, right?
161
00:06:46,790 --> 00:06:48,110
I mean, you're going to say, don't read this.
162
00:06:48,510 --> 00:06:48,870
Oh, yes.
163
00:06:48,870 --> 00:06:49,230
Okay.
164
00:06:49,330 --> 00:06:51,470
One of these, I'm going to say exactly that.
165
00:06:51,470 --> 00:06:51,710
Oh, really?
166
00:06:51,810 --> 00:06:52,030
Okay.
167
00:06:52,250 --> 00:06:59,630
The other, I'm going to say, I didn't even read it because I already read three, but I'll say the name because we spent 12 bucks on the thing, I guess.
168
00:06:59,630 --> 00:07:08,190
So first one is dogs, bumps, and babies by Aileen Stevenson.
169
00:07:08,190 --> 00:07:08,790
Love her.
170
00:07:09,050 --> 00:07:11,430
First of all, phoning it in with the cover.
171
00:07:11,530 --> 00:07:14,870
Everybody else has got dogs, babies, cute pictures.
172
00:07:15,430 --> 00:07:16,850
Aileen, okay.
173
00:07:17,470 --> 00:07:18,390
It's not going well.
174
00:07:18,590 --> 00:07:19,290
Get better, Aileen.
175
00:07:19,350 --> 00:07:22,190
So a guide to preparing your dog for life with your baby.
176
00:07:22,570 --> 00:07:22,850
Okay.
177
00:07:23,230 --> 00:07:24,250
This woman's an idiot.
178
00:07:24,890 --> 00:07:27,250
No, it's no good.
179
00:07:27,390 --> 00:07:28,410
So it equals the cover.
180
00:07:28,650 --> 00:07:29,370
It's bad.
181
00:07:29,370 --> 00:07:30,870
I don't like it.
182
00:07:31,230 --> 00:07:31,670
Disappointed.
183
00:07:31,890 --> 00:07:32,870
Do not read.
184
00:07:33,390 --> 00:07:34,610
Is there a reason why?
185
00:07:35,810 --> 00:07:42,130
So all the other books kind of approached it from the standpoint of the way you train a dog.
186
00:07:42,590 --> 00:07:43,370
Fundamental to that.
187
00:07:43,530 --> 00:07:48,010
None of basically didn't come at it from that direction at all.
188
00:07:48,170 --> 00:07:49,330
Very unconventional.
189
00:07:49,970 --> 00:07:55,470
I don't, I just didn't, as I read it, if you're reading something like this and you're like, no, that's bullshit.
190
00:07:55,630 --> 00:07:57,690
Like, you know, it's, it's not worth it.
191
00:07:57,690 --> 00:08:01,270
So yeah, this one, you know, we had one, four stars.
192
00:08:01,690 --> 00:08:05,170
Got three, four rattles.
193
00:08:05,290 --> 00:08:05,570
That's right.
194
00:08:05,710 --> 00:08:08,290
Four rattles for the first one that we did.
195
00:08:08,350 --> 00:08:13,510
And then the second one I like because of the audio link, the link for the downloadable baby sounds.
196
00:08:13,590 --> 00:08:14,330
Good idea.
197
00:08:14,790 --> 00:08:24,270
This one, nah, I wouldn't want one, one rattle only because I don't know why they took the time to print it.
198
00:08:24,490 --> 00:08:25,870
So, so that's it.
199
00:08:25,870 --> 00:08:29,330
So dogs bumps and baby, I wouldn't bother with that.
200
00:08:29,610 --> 00:08:29,990
Sorry, Aileen.
201
00:08:30,890 --> 00:08:36,370
And then the last one, because I read all the others, I didn't read this because neither did Kelly.
202
00:08:36,530 --> 00:08:38,850
She's like, I'm like, did, what are you, can tell me what to say about it?
203
00:08:38,870 --> 00:08:39,650
She's like, I didn't read it.
204
00:08:40,150 --> 00:08:40,590
Okay.
205
00:08:42,390 --> 00:08:48,790
But I like this one because at least the name is good and cute picture on the cover.
206
00:08:49,290 --> 00:08:51,390
Please, please don't bite the baby.
207
00:08:52,150 --> 00:08:53,330
Please don't bite the baby.
208
00:08:53,390 --> 00:08:55,430
And please don't chase the dogs.
209
00:08:55,910 --> 00:08:58,690
Would you now, why did you read that first?
210
00:08:59,990 --> 00:09:04,690
I, I, cause I, I listened to my wife and she handed me the, I just finished that.
211
00:09:04,770 --> 00:09:05,790
She, she'd read it.
212
00:09:06,250 --> 00:09:07,450
She's way ahead of me.
213
00:09:07,450 --> 00:09:08,810
She's ahead of me in the reading list.
214
00:09:09,350 --> 00:09:10,250
I was, yeah.
215
00:09:10,250 --> 00:09:20,470
So this one is by Lisa J Edwards, bestselling author of a dog named boo, not, not familiar with the work, but there's this one.
216
00:09:20,610 --> 00:09:22,590
Can't tell you if you want to try it out or not.
217
00:09:22,590 --> 00:09:23,290
Great name.
218
00:09:23,430 --> 00:09:26,870
Post a, and a cute, really cute, really cute kid.
219
00:09:27,210 --> 00:09:27,850
Look at that hair.
220
00:09:27,970 --> 00:09:28,570
Very cute.
221
00:09:28,970 --> 00:09:30,030
Look at that hair.
222
00:09:30,350 --> 00:09:31,170
And then there's the dog.
223
00:09:32,250 --> 00:09:39,550
So that is, so that's going to be it for, for book report instances about dog books.
224
00:09:39,550 --> 00:09:43,210
We're done with the dog books and now we'll be able to move on to actual.
225
00:09:43,570 --> 00:09:47,250
If we were smart, we would have done like four bones and three bones with the dogs.
226
00:09:47,450 --> 00:09:48,030
That's true.
227
00:09:48,110 --> 00:09:49,330
We could, we could have done that.
228
00:09:49,530 --> 00:09:50,690
But we're moving on now.
229
00:09:50,870 --> 00:09:51,830
Now we're back to rattles.
230
00:09:52,590 --> 00:09:57,510
We are, we are moving on from, from the dog books.
231
00:09:57,630 --> 00:09:58,110
You have learned.
232
00:09:58,930 --> 00:09:59,050
Yeah.
233
00:09:59,850 --> 00:10:04,050
Look, the first, the first book in particular, I think was very worthwhile.
234
00:10:04,230 --> 00:10:06,250
And again, because it was very tactical.
235
00:10:06,630 --> 00:10:08,050
Do this, do this, do this.
236
00:10:08,590 --> 00:10:13,330
Gave you, gave you a stuff that will build your confidence, make you feel more comfortable.
237
00:10:13,630 --> 00:10:22,630
And then the second one was largely the same kind of approach, but it had the downloads of the sounds, which we have not tried yet, but we'll, we'll probably be doing that soon.
238
00:10:22,830 --> 00:10:24,750
So I think, I think it's going to be good.
239
00:10:24,870 --> 00:10:25,490
It was worth it.
240
00:10:25,510 --> 00:10:29,870
Yes, definitely, definitely worth it, but happy to be reading about actual children.
241
00:10:29,990 --> 00:10:35,250
And again, you guys can, if you have these books or you want, and you can tell us that, no, you guys were wrong.
242
00:10:35,290 --> 00:10:36,050
You should have read that book.
243
00:10:36,090 --> 00:10:36,670
That was awesome.
244
00:10:36,670 --> 00:10:41,490
Or let us know, let us know how you guys feel about these books.
245
00:10:41,730 --> 00:10:42,550
Yeah, absolutely.
246
00:10:42,770 --> 00:10:46,010
Or if you have other ways, maybe not books, but other ways.
247
00:10:46,010 --> 00:10:53,730
I would love to hear, I would love to hear more about, you know, I've talked to some people that have brought, you know, brought the baby home.
248
00:10:53,950 --> 00:10:59,190
The funny one was my, the, the girl who cuts my hair, Danielle, great girl.
249
00:10:59,330 --> 00:11:03,830
She has, she has a few children and she has little dogs, like Chihuahua dogs.
250
00:11:04,690 --> 00:11:06,010
And she's like, Oh, don't worry.
251
00:11:06,230 --> 00:11:08,390
Like it just, it's not a big deal.
252
00:11:08,490 --> 00:11:09,610
They'll be fine.
253
00:11:10,090 --> 00:11:13,710
And, you know, just, you know, bring a blanket home, let them smell.
254
00:11:13,830 --> 00:11:15,010
I'm like, Oh, it was like, yeah.
255
00:11:15,010 --> 00:11:20,390
I said, they say that in the books, but you know, we do want to make sure we're, we're not letting the dogs up on the bed anymore.
256
00:11:20,390 --> 00:11:22,050
And we're going to get off the couch.
257
00:11:22,070 --> 00:11:29,870
And she's like, Oh yeah, there was that time when, when whatever her dog's name, I don't remember jumped up on the couch and landed on the baby.
258
00:11:30,090 --> 00:11:31,450
And I'm like, Oh, okay.
259
00:11:31,450 --> 00:11:36,450
So maybe not just completely easy, but it was, uh, yeah.
260
00:11:36,630 --> 00:11:39,550
Your dog is probably a lot bigger than a Chihuahua.
261
00:11:39,550 --> 00:11:39,930
My dog.
262
00:11:39,970 --> 00:11:40,070
Yeah.
263
00:11:40,370 --> 00:11:42,970
He can hurt me if he jumps up on the couch and can't see me.
264
00:11:42,970 --> 00:11:44,110
So, yeah.
265
00:11:44,330 --> 00:11:45,550
So we're going to, so it was good.
266
00:11:45,630 --> 00:11:53,050
Definitely the books are worth it, but yeah, if you have a recommendation for another book, I'll put it, I'll put it in the queue and I'll try to get to it.
267
00:11:54,050 --> 00:11:57,950
But generally the ones we've reviewed, uh, have been pretty, have been pretty good.
268
00:11:58,170 --> 00:11:59,330
Um, except for Eileen.
269
00:12:00,810 --> 00:12:12,030
So that's it for book report and we can move on now to the second episode or second installment of the silver Fox mailbox.
270
00:12:13,450 --> 00:12:22,170
So we said we were getting some feedback from our listeners and hopefully by now viewers on, on Facebook.
271
00:12:22,370 --> 00:12:37,010
Also though, we, I've been out and kind of trying to engage with fatherhood and parenting forums on, on Reddit and on X and different contributors on, on those platforms.
272
00:12:37,570 --> 00:12:43,330
And so I've, I asked a question on Reddit the other day about what do you, I'm cut.
273
00:12:43,410 --> 00:12:45,930
We're kind of coming into the third trimester.
274
00:12:46,730 --> 00:12:53,170
What do the experienced dads remember about that and what are their recommendations?
275
00:12:53,310 --> 00:12:54,990
And you know, what do I need to look out for?
276
00:12:55,050 --> 00:13:01,530
And we got a bunch of good responses, but the one, there was one from a Redditor whose name is Texas Redditor.
277
00:13:01,530 --> 00:13:08,390
And he said, the first thing he said was, and this is very true because it's, it's happening already.
278
00:13:08,730 --> 00:13:10,330
Get good and massages.
279
00:13:10,850 --> 00:13:14,090
It's going to be harder and harder for her to get around and sleep comfortably.
280
00:13:14,090 --> 00:13:18,770
Find some time for her to prop up on the couch and get her back or feet rubbed.
281
00:13:18,770 --> 00:13:21,150
It gives you both a little extra bonding time beyond that.
282
00:13:21,210 --> 00:13:29,430
My best advice in this, I think is a good idea and something that I will be having, having to get to take responsibility for the logistics of delivery.
283
00:13:30,030 --> 00:13:33,130
Make sure the bug out bags are packed way ahead of time.
284
00:13:33,230 --> 00:13:35,110
Make sure you got a birth plan written out.
285
00:13:35,230 --> 00:13:36,610
I don't know if I'll do the birth plan.
286
00:13:36,810 --> 00:13:39,370
Make sure the car seat is installed and ready to go.
287
00:13:39,870 --> 00:13:42,390
Is somebody coming to watch the house or feed a pet?
288
00:13:42,470 --> 00:13:45,550
Because we're going to have to have somebody take care of the dogs while we're doing that stuff.
289
00:13:45,930 --> 00:13:46,290
My kids.
290
00:13:46,430 --> 00:13:47,270
Does family know?
291
00:13:47,370 --> 00:13:48,130
Yeah, that's right.
292
00:13:48,390 --> 00:13:52,010
Does family know when to show up at the hospital and what to do when they arrived?
293
00:13:52,050 --> 00:13:54,070
Do you have food stock, et cetera, et cetera.
294
00:13:54,070 --> 00:13:55,570
Make a list and knock it out.
295
00:13:56,090 --> 00:13:57,270
So I think that's great.
296
00:13:57,290 --> 00:13:58,250
That's great advice.
297
00:13:58,250 --> 00:13:59,950
So thank you to Texas Redditor.
298
00:14:00,810 --> 00:14:08,970
But I did want to ask, so like, did you, it was a while ago, but did you have like a bug out bag ready and packed and all that stuff?
299
00:14:08,990 --> 00:14:12,790
Or you just knew your family was going to be kind of swoop in and take care of everything?
300
00:14:12,810 --> 00:14:15,930
No, this is going back 23 plus years.
301
00:14:16,610 --> 00:14:19,650
I think at this point we did not have it ready.
302
00:14:20,330 --> 00:14:20,610
Okay.
303
00:14:20,730 --> 00:14:21,010
23.
304
00:14:21,190 --> 00:14:24,390
I mean, we, yeah, we got closer and closer.
305
00:14:24,390 --> 00:14:24,690
Yeah.
306
00:14:24,930 --> 00:14:28,530
The doctors will tell you, Hey, get home, get a bag ready.
307
00:14:28,890 --> 00:14:30,070
We knew where we were going.
308
00:14:30,210 --> 00:14:32,990
We knew what vehicle we knew all that.
309
00:14:33,010 --> 00:14:37,510
We would go to the exams and all that to the hospital.
310
00:14:37,510 --> 00:14:39,950
So we knew the route, the best route to get there.
311
00:14:40,010 --> 00:14:40,710
We did that.
312
00:14:41,110 --> 00:14:44,970
It's weird because you think it's going to go one way and it never does.
313
00:14:45,270 --> 00:14:47,470
You think, oh, this is the day it's going to happen.
314
00:14:47,510 --> 00:14:51,050
I'm going to be sitting home and everybody's going to be ready and I'm going to get to things.
315
00:14:51,450 --> 00:14:58,910
But in general, it can happen at three in the morning and you're just getting up from sleep and you have no idea what's going on and you're freaking out.
316
00:14:59,010 --> 00:15:01,710
And so the more you have the better.
317
00:15:01,970 --> 00:15:02,390
Planned and prepared.
318
00:15:03,430 --> 00:15:04,490
But I'll tell you this.
319
00:15:04,810 --> 00:15:06,250
I know, I think they still do it.
320
00:15:06,350 --> 00:15:15,370
If you bring your car and the seat to AAA, there's a certain time that they will inspect it and make sure it's on correctly.
321
00:15:15,690 --> 00:15:17,030
That you have installed correctly.
322
00:15:17,230 --> 00:15:17,330
Yep.
323
00:15:17,390 --> 00:15:17,510
Yeah.
324
00:15:17,510 --> 00:15:18,190
That makes sense.
325
00:15:18,290 --> 00:15:19,230
Very important.
326
00:15:19,810 --> 00:15:20,570
They do it.
327
00:15:20,670 --> 00:15:23,990
I don't know if it's once or twice a year or you can call them up and ask.
328
00:15:24,190 --> 00:15:27,730
They'll have officers and they'll check your car.
329
00:15:27,910 --> 00:15:28,610
They'll look at it.
330
00:15:29,290 --> 00:15:31,610
And so that's a cool thing that happens.
331
00:15:32,150 --> 00:15:33,230
But being ready.
332
00:15:33,410 --> 00:15:40,010
Yeah, we were ready, but you're never really ready as long as you get your stuff and you know the route you're going.
333
00:15:40,910 --> 00:15:41,710
Reliable car.
334
00:15:42,930 --> 00:15:43,790
That's one thing.
335
00:15:44,050 --> 00:15:47,510
And the worst thing is also, I don't know if you're going to fall into it, but the weather.
336
00:15:47,830 --> 00:15:48,230
Yeah.
337
00:15:48,230 --> 00:15:50,130
You know, yours is in March.
338
00:15:50,370 --> 00:15:50,470
Yeah.
339
00:15:50,470 --> 00:15:51,170
Beginning of March.
340
00:15:51,330 --> 00:15:53,310
So, I mean, it could be here and there.
341
00:15:53,570 --> 00:15:55,370
So I didn't have to deal with that.
342
00:15:55,490 --> 00:15:59,850
But I could just imagine you're already nervous and it's just a storm out there.
343
00:15:59,890 --> 00:16:00,230
Oh, yeah.
344
00:16:00,490 --> 00:16:00,890
That's.
345
00:16:01,410 --> 00:16:01,670
No.
346
00:16:01,890 --> 00:16:02,090
Yeah.
347
00:16:02,090 --> 00:16:02,290
Yeah.
348
00:16:02,290 --> 00:16:03,090
That would be scary.
349
00:16:03,250 --> 00:16:05,050
But we were ready as much as we could.
350
00:16:05,190 --> 00:16:05,350
Sure.
351
00:16:05,350 --> 00:16:06,350
We had the clothes ready.
352
00:16:06,790 --> 00:16:07,830
We had our route ready.
353
00:16:08,050 --> 00:16:08,850
Our family.
354
00:16:09,390 --> 00:16:11,510
Obviously, we didn't have to even ask.
355
00:16:11,710 --> 00:16:13,070
You knew they were going to be around.
356
00:16:13,370 --> 00:16:13,650
Right.
357
00:16:13,750 --> 00:16:16,830
When we got home, both mothers were there.
358
00:16:16,830 --> 00:16:21,250
My mother, her mother, and then with my brothers and everybody.
359
00:16:21,550 --> 00:16:23,050
So we had that support.
360
00:16:23,590 --> 00:16:25,230
But it's going to be nerve wracking as it is.
361
00:16:25,350 --> 00:16:29,750
So if you can get that list down, you're golden.
362
00:16:30,870 --> 00:16:31,270
Yeah.
363
00:16:31,530 --> 00:16:33,250
Being prepared with stuff like that.
364
00:16:33,290 --> 00:16:33,490
Yeah.
365
00:16:33,590 --> 00:16:34,110
It will be something.
366
00:16:34,270 --> 00:16:34,510
The more you're prepared.
367
00:16:34,530 --> 00:16:35,170
I could be excited.
368
00:16:35,530 --> 00:16:35,630
With anything.
369
00:16:35,910 --> 00:16:36,230
The better.
370
00:16:36,290 --> 00:16:36,510
Right.
371
00:16:36,670 --> 00:16:36,950
Yeah.
372
00:16:37,170 --> 00:16:37,450
Yeah.
373
00:16:37,450 --> 00:16:39,110
I think I think that's going to be good.
374
00:16:39,850 --> 00:16:42,010
And you guys, you'll take that to heart, right?
375
00:16:42,010 --> 00:16:42,590
You'll have everything.
376
00:16:42,710 --> 00:16:42,910
Yeah.
377
00:16:43,110 --> 00:16:43,330
Yeah.
378
00:16:43,810 --> 00:16:44,690
There's so much.
379
00:16:45,270 --> 00:16:49,410
I'm wondering how I think things are going to start happening fast and furious.
380
00:16:49,530 --> 00:16:51,670
Right now, there's not a lot going on.
381
00:16:52,310 --> 00:16:56,710
As far as pregnancy and development stuff, we have a scan coming up.
382
00:16:57,090 --> 00:16:58,290
The next big one.
383
00:16:59,230 --> 00:17:02,270
So there isn't a whole lot of that to worry about.
384
00:17:02,470 --> 00:17:06,790
But yeah, I think as we start getting closer, it's going to start coming fast and furious.
385
00:17:07,010 --> 00:17:08,750
Now, I have this to throw in there.
386
00:17:09,150 --> 00:17:11,890
My first was three weeks early.
387
00:17:12,150 --> 00:17:12,410
Really?
388
00:17:12,410 --> 00:17:13,930
So we weren't ready for it.
389
00:17:14,050 --> 00:17:14,650
I did not know that.
390
00:17:14,770 --> 00:17:16,069
So this is just reminding me.
391
00:17:16,869 --> 00:17:23,970
So the day that we went to the hospital for Natali, we were three weeks out.
392
00:17:24,650 --> 00:17:27,290
And my wife and I, Trina and I, were at the mall shopping.
393
00:17:27,670 --> 00:17:27,970
Okay.
394
00:17:28,070 --> 00:17:29,010
And I'm a goofball.
395
00:17:29,150 --> 00:17:30,950
And I was making her laugh.
396
00:17:31,230 --> 00:17:35,670
And I think we had like Hyde's hot dogs or something that day.
397
00:17:35,730 --> 00:17:36,030
Okay.
398
00:17:36,390 --> 00:17:37,230
And she was burping it up.
399
00:17:37,450 --> 00:17:39,070
And she was kind of like, okay.
400
00:17:39,570 --> 00:17:43,910
And at that point, the doctor says, you know, the more walking you might induce, you know.
401
00:17:44,190 --> 00:17:46,790
So we didn't want to do a lot of that because it's still three weeks out.
402
00:17:47,210 --> 00:17:50,550
But we were at the mall and I said something.
403
00:17:50,670 --> 00:17:53,810
We left the mall and we went to, back then there was a store called Ames.
404
00:17:54,130 --> 00:17:55,210
It was like a Kmart.
405
00:17:55,530 --> 00:17:56,870
I remember Ames, yes.
406
00:17:57,010 --> 00:18:01,550
And we were looking at probably more baby stuff, you know, for the room and stuff.
407
00:18:01,890 --> 00:18:07,390
And I probably started dancing in the aisle or saying something stupid.
408
00:18:07,390 --> 00:18:09,170
And Trina laughed.
409
00:18:09,230 --> 00:18:10,010
She was like, oh my gosh.
410
00:18:10,090 --> 00:18:12,310
She's like, and she goes, oh my God, I'm peeing my pants.
411
00:18:13,710 --> 00:18:15,670
Well, she didn't pee her pants.
412
00:18:17,590 --> 00:18:21,710
So we got, and still were so new to this.
413
00:18:21,770 --> 00:18:23,170
We still didn't know we went home.
414
00:18:23,830 --> 00:18:24,970
She thought she peed her pants.
415
00:18:25,530 --> 00:18:27,310
And that's fantastic.
416
00:18:27,550 --> 00:18:28,610
And things started happening.
417
00:18:29,290 --> 00:18:35,030
Unfortunately, her mother, because it's three weeks out, was nowhere to be, nowhere near the hospital.
418
00:18:35,030 --> 00:18:38,590
She already had her day planned and she was not there.
419
00:18:38,890 --> 00:18:44,210
So my mother was in replacing her mother.
420
00:18:44,910 --> 00:18:47,990
So my mom got to be in the delivery room.
421
00:18:48,790 --> 00:18:49,730
So it happened quickly.
422
00:18:50,210 --> 00:18:53,750
Like I said, we were prepared, but we can't be prepared for everything.
423
00:18:53,930 --> 00:18:58,110
So we were three weeks early and everything just went out the window, right?
424
00:18:58,590 --> 00:18:59,330
That's funny.
425
00:18:59,450 --> 00:18:59,590
Yeah.
426
00:18:59,650 --> 00:19:01,030
So he was three weeks early.
427
00:19:01,030 --> 00:19:08,290
From now on, at all your shows, you should be introduced as the labor inducing comedy of Carlo Russo.
428
00:19:08,770 --> 00:19:09,870
That is fantastic.
429
00:19:10,210 --> 00:19:13,370
If you're early, late, just have me come over.
430
00:19:13,690 --> 00:19:14,510
There you go.
431
00:19:14,810 --> 00:19:15,650
Yeah, we'll do that.
432
00:19:15,750 --> 00:19:16,750
I have a, yeah, I have a DVD.
433
00:19:17,410 --> 00:19:18,470
Do your 10 minutes set.
434
00:19:19,470 --> 00:19:20,350
So that was fun.
435
00:19:20,390 --> 00:19:25,490
So I, that just reminded me, Natalia was three weeks early and everything that we planned went out the window.
436
00:19:25,550 --> 00:19:27,470
We're like, oh my God, it's happening now.
437
00:19:27,650 --> 00:19:28,190
That's fine.
438
00:19:28,190 --> 00:19:32,710
So, well, yeah, I think, yeah, being prepared will be important.
439
00:19:33,110 --> 00:19:45,230
So the other one that, that stood out, we asked on Facebook for ideas and advice and like kind of hacks and best practices and Christine, one of our top fans.
440
00:19:45,350 --> 00:19:45,530
Yeah.
441
00:19:45,590 --> 00:19:46,690
We've heard from Christine before.
442
00:19:46,790 --> 00:19:47,370
Yes, we have.
443
00:19:47,510 --> 00:19:55,270
So Christine said, sleep when the baby sleeps, accept help when it's offered, because there's nothing wrong with getting help.
444
00:19:55,270 --> 00:20:01,030
Order takeout, watch, Christine is like one of my favorite people already.
445
00:20:01,570 --> 00:20:12,230
Order takeout, watch a movie, clean the house later, tell your wife every day she's beautiful, enjoy every all caps minute because your kids grow up too fast.
446
00:20:12,690 --> 00:20:13,490
And I think that's.
447
00:20:13,750 --> 00:20:17,050
She is so 100% on the money.
448
00:20:17,090 --> 00:20:18,070
Especially the takeout.
449
00:20:18,650 --> 00:20:23,150
But no, I think that's, that's also great advice.
450
00:20:23,150 --> 00:20:26,150
And it's funny, I have found myself.
451
00:20:26,350 --> 00:20:31,510
I never understood people would say, oh, women, they're so beautiful when they're pregnant.
452
00:20:32,350 --> 00:20:34,230
I never got it.
453
00:20:34,630 --> 00:20:37,210
And now I'm like, look how cute you are.
454
00:20:37,530 --> 00:20:38,610
They're just adorable.
455
00:20:38,970 --> 00:20:40,090
Yeah, she is.
456
00:20:40,130 --> 00:20:40,770
She's adorable.
457
00:20:41,270 --> 00:20:42,450
Yeah, we're over.
458
00:20:43,150 --> 00:20:44,330
Tell your doctor that.
459
00:20:44,470 --> 00:20:45,110
Yeah, yeah.
460
00:20:45,250 --> 00:20:49,230
The one that looked at you nasty when you thought you were making fun of your wife's weight.
461
00:20:49,530 --> 00:20:50,470
There was absolutely.
462
00:20:50,730 --> 00:20:52,530
If you know what we're talking about, we love you.
463
00:20:52,530 --> 00:20:56,410
If you know what we're talking about, you are the OG.
464
00:20:56,890 --> 00:20:58,550
You, you're, you're down.
465
00:20:58,870 --> 00:21:03,690
The it's, we were over at my, we were over at my sister's for, for dinner the other day.
466
00:21:03,710 --> 00:21:05,350
And we're just like getting ready to leave.
467
00:21:05,690 --> 00:21:06,370
I don't know.
468
00:21:06,410 --> 00:21:07,850
I'm like, look how cute she is.
469
00:21:09,830 --> 00:21:10,970
Yeah, I can't help it.
470
00:21:11,530 --> 00:21:12,370
But anyhow.
471
00:21:12,970 --> 00:21:14,110
I'll sleep when the baby sleeps.
472
00:21:14,810 --> 00:21:15,210
Yeah.
473
00:21:15,310 --> 00:21:21,190
But at the same time, it's so hard because it's like you have this moment, like, okay, what do I need to do?
474
00:21:21,550 --> 00:21:22,410
That's tough, right?
475
00:21:22,410 --> 00:21:23,370
Can I get something done?
476
00:21:23,450 --> 00:21:23,650
Yeah.
477
00:21:24,070 --> 00:21:25,830
And what can I catch up on?
478
00:21:26,690 --> 00:21:28,210
It does make sense.
479
00:21:28,330 --> 00:21:31,610
Even though you have things to do, get that sleep.
480
00:21:32,370 --> 00:21:33,390
Take that moment.
481
00:21:33,490 --> 00:21:34,110
Say, you know what?
482
00:21:34,310 --> 00:21:35,810
That can wait right now.
483
00:21:35,850 --> 00:21:36,470
The baby's sleeping.
484
00:21:36,690 --> 00:21:43,350
I have to be sleeping as well because when the baby gets up, then I have to be alert and have energy.
485
00:21:43,570 --> 00:21:45,530
And so that is, nobody wants to do it.
486
00:21:45,590 --> 00:21:46,070
I don't know why.
487
00:21:46,190 --> 00:21:49,470
Maybe because it's like, and the nice thing is with family around.
488
00:21:50,110 --> 00:21:58,130
You can, I remember Trina sleeping even when the baby wasn't because we had her mother or my mother or something or me.
489
00:21:58,270 --> 00:22:00,450
I would come home and she would just hand off the baby.
490
00:22:00,690 --> 00:22:00,790
Yeah.
491
00:22:00,830 --> 00:22:02,170
I remember it was like clockwork.
492
00:22:02,350 --> 00:22:08,310
It was, I mean, we had it down and she would have the baby throughout the day and people come in and out.
493
00:22:08,490 --> 00:22:10,990
And then when I came home, that's when she really slept.
494
00:22:11,130 --> 00:22:11,530
Right.
495
00:22:11,650 --> 00:22:13,090
And she would just hand me the baby.
496
00:22:14,290 --> 00:22:15,750
And yeah, she'd be out.
497
00:22:16,030 --> 00:22:19,310
And the cool thing is there's a period of time when the baby just sleeps.
498
00:22:19,710 --> 00:22:20,070
Right.
499
00:22:20,390 --> 00:22:20,750
Right.
500
00:22:20,790 --> 00:22:29,110
So you just like, that's when you can watch your TV and kind of have like a little normal, like a taste of what it used to be like, I can do this.
501
00:22:29,230 --> 00:22:31,930
And then in six weeks or four weeks, it all changes.
502
00:22:32,110 --> 00:22:32,410
Right.
503
00:22:32,450 --> 00:22:37,130
But at that moment when the baby's sleeping all the time, that's when you can catch up on things.
504
00:22:37,910 --> 00:22:39,270
I can handle this.
505
00:22:39,290 --> 00:22:40,150
This is not bad.
506
00:22:40,150 --> 00:22:41,690
And, and regroup.
507
00:22:41,770 --> 00:22:42,890
And that's what I've learned.
508
00:22:42,910 --> 00:22:46,910
It's just like when she's handed it to me, like, well, you're handing me a baby, but it's going to sleep anyway.
509
00:22:46,910 --> 00:22:48,850
So I would just like get something to eat.
510
00:22:49,850 --> 00:22:53,110
And they always say, you know, take off your shirt, skin to skin.
511
00:22:53,270 --> 00:22:53,670
Skin to skin.
512
00:22:53,790 --> 00:22:54,870
And we did that.
513
00:22:55,450 --> 00:22:59,330
And, and I would just like turn on the TV and just the baby sleeping.
514
00:22:59,510 --> 00:23:01,030
And you watch the baby more than the TV.
515
00:23:01,090 --> 00:23:04,690
You're just like, you're just staring at this child.
516
00:23:04,790 --> 00:23:05,210
You know what I mean?
517
00:23:05,230 --> 00:23:05,870
Instead of watching.
518
00:23:06,010 --> 00:23:06,190
Yeah.
519
00:23:06,230 --> 00:23:06,930
You're not watching it.
520
00:23:07,190 --> 00:23:10,230
And you're just looking going, how did we make this?
521
00:23:10,250 --> 00:23:10,950
How did this happen?
522
00:23:11,090 --> 00:23:13,210
How did, you know, that's the coolest thing.
523
00:23:13,670 --> 00:23:14,930
But yeah, if you can get some sleep.
524
00:23:14,930 --> 00:23:31,830
My, my sister, Lucille, her daughter, she was telling me a story about the being tired thing that she said, if she had had, she had my nephew first and then my niece later.
525
00:23:32,050 --> 00:23:43,890
And if they, she said, if they had been reversed, my nephew never would have been born because she was very, she was one that it was like needed to eat every couple hours.
526
00:23:43,890 --> 00:23:50,330
But my nephew, like he was, I think he was almost 10 pounds at nine pounds, 10 ounces, something like that.
527
00:23:50,970 --> 00:23:54,010
And so you'd stuck a bottle in them, eat it.
528
00:23:54,170 --> 00:23:54,850
That was it.
529
00:23:54,890 --> 00:24:00,750
And then back to sleep with, with her daughter, with Jenna, not so much, right?
530
00:24:00,750 --> 00:24:10,950
Every two hours, wake up hungry, but she would like take her time and not, it would take, it wouldn't, it was like a half hour, 45 minutes, an hour to go through a bottle.
531
00:24:10,950 --> 00:24:13,990
So she was getting absolutely no sleep.
532
00:24:14,510 --> 00:24:20,590
And after a few months, she said, after a few months, people would say, gee, you look like you're a little, and I would just burst into tears.
533
00:24:20,990 --> 00:24:24,050
I know it's tough.
534
00:24:24,290 --> 00:24:25,010
That's gotta be hard.
535
00:24:25,450 --> 00:24:30,610
But as she always also said, time goes by, they grow up so fast.
536
00:24:30,710 --> 00:24:34,050
You, when you're in the moment, you think this is never going to end.
537
00:24:34,270 --> 00:24:34,450
Yeah.
538
00:24:34,590 --> 00:24:35,930
This will never end.
539
00:24:35,950 --> 00:24:37,910
I will always smell like poop and pee.
540
00:24:37,910 --> 00:24:41,890
I will never have any good clothes that doesn't have a stain on it.
541
00:24:42,170 --> 00:24:43,150
But you're in that moment.
542
00:24:43,370 --> 00:24:47,710
And then all of a sudden now, again, I jumped, it feels like it was yesterday.
543
00:24:48,510 --> 00:24:53,730
Mine's 23 and 18, you know, and, uh, take it for what it, everything.
544
00:24:53,870 --> 00:24:55,010
You take it all in, do it all.
545
00:24:55,310 --> 00:24:57,430
You're only going to be tired for a little bit of time.
546
00:24:57,810 --> 00:24:59,530
You're gonna, you're gonna go to sleep.
547
00:25:00,570 --> 00:25:03,810
Eventually it's going to be, eventually your life goes back to normal.
548
00:25:04,310 --> 00:25:07,770
You and the child can take naps because you're an old fart.
549
00:25:07,770 --> 00:25:08,050
Yep.
550
00:25:08,610 --> 00:25:10,930
I like a good nap.
551
00:25:11,230 --> 00:25:11,690
Exactly.
552
00:25:11,690 --> 00:25:12,310
We can tag.
553
00:25:12,410 --> 00:25:13,310
We're going to need naps.
554
00:25:13,490 --> 00:25:14,030
We can do that.
555
00:25:14,110 --> 00:25:15,450
You guys can have that in common.
556
00:25:15,790 --> 00:25:16,050
That's it.
557
00:25:16,570 --> 00:25:17,590
That sounds okay.
558
00:25:17,610 --> 00:25:18,950
Kelly can feed you both.
559
00:25:20,070 --> 00:25:23,210
That sounds like a great evening to me.
560
00:25:23,330 --> 00:25:23,570
I love it.
561
00:25:24,050 --> 00:25:24,550
That's it.
562
00:25:24,690 --> 00:25:29,190
So, so again, thank you to, uh, Texas Redditor and Christine.
563
00:25:29,190 --> 00:25:30,450
Thank you very, very much.
564
00:25:30,870 --> 00:25:31,950
We'll cover some others.
565
00:25:31,950 --> 00:25:34,530
I'm sure as we, as we get more coming in.
566
00:25:35,070 --> 00:25:37,930
Um, so that can I ask you a question about this?
567
00:25:38,190 --> 00:25:38,410
Sure.
568
00:25:39,050 --> 00:25:40,430
Did your parents have help?
569
00:25:40,530 --> 00:25:45,170
Did your mother ever say like, Oh, your grandmother was here or did they have to do this on their own?
570
00:25:45,670 --> 00:25:50,230
Well, I think, I think it depends on what side of the family, which kid.
571
00:25:50,390 --> 00:25:50,870
Okay.
572
00:25:50,950 --> 00:25:51,290
Right.
573
00:25:51,290 --> 00:26:00,090
So I don't, I think when my brother was born, they were, my parents were living upstairs from my grandmother.
574
00:26:00,690 --> 00:26:01,170
Okay.
575
00:26:01,170 --> 00:26:05,190
And my grandmother was no, like, was no help.
576
00:26:05,910 --> 00:26:08,390
She was the one that, yeah, she was miserable.
577
00:26:08,650 --> 00:26:13,610
Like, she was like, basically like once they had the baby, what my brother, she was like, you got to get out.
578
00:26:13,670 --> 00:26:17,770
Like, I can't, like, she was like, couldn't, didn't want to hear the kid cry.
579
00:26:18,150 --> 00:26:20,470
Like, yeah, not a, not a great woman.
580
00:26:20,650 --> 00:26:20,810
Okay.
581
00:26:20,910 --> 00:26:21,790
No help there.
582
00:26:21,950 --> 00:26:22,830
No, no help there.
583
00:26:22,950 --> 00:26:31,070
But it's funny because my family of, there was my, my aunt and, and my uncle and my dad, my dad was the oldest.
584
00:26:31,790 --> 00:26:34,250
My aunt lived with my grandmother.
585
00:26:34,970 --> 00:26:35,070
Okay.
586
00:26:35,070 --> 00:26:38,310
So she never had, never had a family, never had kids.
587
00:26:38,830 --> 00:26:39,850
My uncle had his family.
588
00:26:39,930 --> 00:26:51,710
So my uncle's kids, my cousins, like they talk about my grandmother in a completely, like they had a completely different experience, completely different.
589
00:26:51,870 --> 00:27:01,850
Like literally one, one time we were, had a little get together and my cousin was talking about my grandmother and my, my, my wife, Kelly's like, really?
590
00:27:01,970 --> 00:27:03,030
This doesn't sound at all.
591
00:27:03,190 --> 00:27:05,170
Like, I'm like your story.
592
00:27:05,410 --> 00:27:05,890
Yeah.
593
00:27:06,810 --> 00:27:13,670
So she just gave up or she was, she was not, she was one of those people who came to America, but never really wanted to.
594
00:27:13,930 --> 00:27:14,070
Right.
595
00:27:14,270 --> 00:27:20,790
And she, my father reminded her of her husband who she was not fond of.
596
00:27:21,150 --> 00:27:25,630
And my uncle reminded her of her brother, who she loved.
597
00:27:25,630 --> 00:27:26,290
Gotcha.
598
00:27:26,350 --> 00:27:27,270
Oh my God.
599
00:27:27,350 --> 00:27:29,570
So she, yeah, yeah.
600
00:27:29,650 --> 00:27:32,750
It was all these stories always come back to food.
601
00:27:33,770 --> 00:27:37,850
As a kid, as a little kid, we would go to my grandmother's house and I wouldn't eat.
602
00:27:37,990 --> 00:27:41,310
And I remember my mother, like, you can't keep doing that.
603
00:27:41,410 --> 00:27:44,190
Like, why won't you eat when you're here?
604
00:27:44,750 --> 00:27:47,010
It is, I was, this was before I was even in school.
605
00:27:47,410 --> 00:27:56,750
And I was like, because I, because when we're there and we eat, when uncle Johnny shows up while we're eating better food comes out.
606
00:27:57,630 --> 00:28:04,090
And just from a fairness standpoint, as a little kid, I wrote, I would see that and be like, no, okay.
607
00:28:04,090 --> 00:28:06,210
You don't want to, you don't want to give me the good food.
608
00:28:06,330 --> 00:28:07,530
I don't want any of your food.
609
00:28:08,410 --> 00:28:10,370
So, and that's the, but that's the way it would be.
610
00:28:10,410 --> 00:28:16,670
It was literally like, yeah, that kind of, well, like the example with my, with my brother, when my brother was born, get out.
611
00:28:16,690 --> 00:28:17,550
I can't have a kid.
612
00:28:18,170 --> 00:28:19,110
I can't have it.
613
00:28:19,130 --> 00:28:21,210
I can't have a baby upstairs from me.
614
00:28:21,270 --> 00:28:22,890
I can't, my nerves can't take it.
615
00:28:23,650 --> 00:28:26,510
My, my brother, my father and mother move out.
616
00:28:26,970 --> 00:28:28,770
My uncle moves in with his wife.
617
00:28:28,950 --> 00:28:30,570
She has my cousin.
618
00:28:30,750 --> 00:28:31,790
They live there for years.
619
00:28:32,370 --> 00:28:32,770
Wow.
620
00:28:32,930 --> 00:28:35,010
And it's like, she wasn't even faking it.
621
00:28:35,150 --> 00:28:37,050
She wasn't even trying to hide it.
622
00:28:37,190 --> 00:28:37,950
Absolutely not.
623
00:28:38,190 --> 00:28:43,010
No, she, it was, it was straight up because you didn't have that experience.
624
00:28:43,250 --> 00:28:43,530
You know?
625
00:28:43,670 --> 00:28:49,150
No, I would always get the stories from my siblings about my mom's mother was a wonderful woman.
626
00:28:49,330 --> 00:28:50,830
They loved, she was great.
627
00:28:50,830 --> 00:28:55,410
They all, they have nothing but good things to say about her, but she passed away before I was born.
628
00:28:55,910 --> 00:28:59,270
So I never had, I never had a nice grandmother.
629
00:29:00,010 --> 00:29:03,350
I had, I had my, Oh, I used to refer to her as my evil grandma, Nani.
630
00:29:03,790 --> 00:29:04,650
That was it.
631
00:29:04,730 --> 00:29:06,590
It's funny to speak about grandparents.
632
00:29:07,310 --> 00:29:13,090
My grandparents, my, my grandfather died before I was born or when I was named after.
633
00:29:13,670 --> 00:29:21,130
And my grandmother moved here with us when we immigrated, died a year and a half, two years in.
634
00:29:21,870 --> 00:29:21,970
Okay.
635
00:29:21,970 --> 00:29:25,510
So I really didn't know her because I was a child myself.
636
00:29:25,650 --> 00:29:34,810
And then my, my two grandparents on my father's side, they were alive into my teens, but they lived in Italy.
637
00:29:34,810 --> 00:29:36,690
So I didn't hang out with them.
638
00:29:36,890 --> 00:29:36,990
Right.
639
00:29:36,990 --> 00:29:37,750
You didn't get to see them.
640
00:29:37,890 --> 00:29:41,590
So I had really no grandparent experience.
641
00:29:41,870 --> 00:29:42,050
Yeah.
642
00:29:42,330 --> 00:29:53,650
Um, so my older aunts were my, they were like my grand, my grandmother, my one aunt, my mom's sister was the oldest who brought us here.
643
00:29:53,750 --> 00:29:54,150
Right.
644
00:29:54,550 --> 00:29:55,550
Who was our sponsor.
645
00:29:55,970 --> 00:29:57,990
She was kind of like my grandmother.
646
00:29:58,090 --> 00:29:58,590
Like your grandma.
647
00:29:58,750 --> 00:30:02,750
Um, but I haven't had, I haven't had that at all.
648
00:30:03,030 --> 00:30:04,390
So I think we have that in common.
649
00:30:04,550 --> 00:30:04,710
Yeah.
650
00:30:04,970 --> 00:30:05,230
Yeah.
651
00:30:05,350 --> 00:30:05,790
We don't know.
652
00:30:05,910 --> 00:30:12,590
I mean, my mom's dad, he passed away when I was very young, but I do remember him and he was, Pappy was fun.
653
00:30:12,870 --> 00:30:22,530
He was in a, he was, he would, he would, I remember as a little kid, we'd go over to his house and I would sit on his lap on his rocker.
654
00:30:22,610 --> 00:30:26,730
He had a little stickly rocker and we would watch TV and he would, we would watch the prices.
655
00:30:26,910 --> 00:30:27,050
Right.
656
00:30:27,850 --> 00:30:29,650
And he loved the prices.
657
00:30:29,830 --> 00:30:29,930
Right.
658
00:30:29,950 --> 00:30:30,750
And he loved Popeye.
659
00:30:31,310 --> 00:30:32,730
And he would always, he was tough.
660
00:30:33,030 --> 00:30:34,250
He liked Popeye cartoons.
661
00:30:34,290 --> 00:30:34,950
And he would watch Popeye.
662
00:30:34,950 --> 00:30:36,330
I think that was a very European thing.
663
00:30:36,370 --> 00:30:38,510
Cause my, I think my father loved Popeye.
664
00:30:38,510 --> 00:30:39,010
It's interesting.
665
00:30:39,030 --> 00:30:39,870
Everybody knew Popeye.
666
00:30:39,970 --> 00:30:40,170
Yeah.
667
00:30:40,430 --> 00:30:40,790
Yeah.
668
00:30:40,910 --> 00:30:41,090
Yeah.
669
00:30:41,090 --> 00:30:41,570
He loved Popeye.
670
00:30:41,570 --> 00:30:43,810
Cause he was on a boat and we're all shipped over on a boat.
671
00:30:43,990 --> 00:30:44,370
I don't know.
672
00:30:44,770 --> 00:30:46,570
They love, they're all fishermen and salesmen.
673
00:30:47,130 --> 00:30:48,410
Pappy loved Popeye.
674
00:30:48,550 --> 00:30:49,610
Nani didn't love anybody.
675
00:30:50,770 --> 00:30:53,150
It was, or at least nobody on my side of the family.
676
00:30:53,510 --> 00:30:54,990
It was, it was, it was comical.
677
00:30:55,290 --> 00:30:55,550
But that's fun.
678
00:30:55,670 --> 00:30:56,790
That's, that's crazy.
679
00:30:57,430 --> 00:31:04,390
The same family having two totally different stories and, and, and experiences with the same woman.
680
00:31:04,530 --> 00:31:05,150
Well, yeah.
681
00:31:05,270 --> 00:31:11,090
I'm, I, even when, when my uncle was still alive, he passed away a few years ago and he, he, he was great.
682
00:31:11,550 --> 00:31:14,010
My uncle Johnny was, was, was great.
683
00:31:14,010 --> 00:31:17,650
But he would talk about his mother and he would talk about her.
684
00:31:17,810 --> 00:31:19,610
Like she was this delicate flower.
685
00:31:20,290 --> 00:31:20,490
This one.
686
00:31:20,670 --> 00:31:25,730
And I was, obviously didn't see what you guys went through.
687
00:31:25,810 --> 00:31:26,690
No, she wouldn't show that.
688
00:31:26,950 --> 00:31:29,490
She treated them with kindness and love.
689
00:31:29,630 --> 00:31:33,270
She didn't, they didn't notice how you guys were treated or she wouldn't show that.
690
00:31:33,510 --> 00:31:38,510
I think, no, I think they somehow, they must've understood that it was different.
691
00:31:38,730 --> 00:31:39,130
Yeah.
692
00:31:40,130 --> 00:31:43,330
Cause my, it was just, you know, there was, there was always conflict.
693
00:31:43,330 --> 00:31:45,090
These brothers got along, right.
694
00:31:45,950 --> 00:31:46,870
Off and on.
695
00:31:47,630 --> 00:31:50,010
They would go, it was so Italian.
696
00:31:50,430 --> 00:31:50,670
Yeah.
697
00:31:50,770 --> 00:31:51,670
Very much so.
698
00:31:52,110 --> 00:31:52,350
Yeah.
699
00:31:52,530 --> 00:31:54,250
I mean, mostly, I mean, they loved each other.
700
00:31:54,470 --> 00:32:01,190
My uncle was when my dad, it was nearing the end of his life and in the home, he was there every Sunday.
701
00:32:01,890 --> 00:32:05,730
He was, he was really focused on family and very supportive of things like that.
702
00:32:05,770 --> 00:32:09,590
He, in a very, very nice, very traditional way.
703
00:32:09,590 --> 00:32:16,530
No, I think it was just, there was a complete disconnect with how she treated them and how she treated us.
704
00:32:16,810 --> 00:32:16,910
Yeah.
705
00:32:17,410 --> 00:32:18,030
So, yeah.
706
00:32:18,050 --> 00:32:23,170
I mean, getting back to the, the, the, uh, the question, the email though, um, get help when you can.
707
00:32:23,250 --> 00:32:26,890
I, I'm assuming your, your mother didn't get a lot.
708
00:32:27,990 --> 00:32:29,030
No, I don't think so.
709
00:32:29,170 --> 00:32:31,930
Now, by the time I came along, she already had my sister.
710
00:32:33,230 --> 00:32:33,650
Yeah.
711
00:32:33,690 --> 00:32:37,550
My sisters were, did everything for, yeah, they did everything for me.
712
00:32:37,550 --> 00:32:38,690
Do you look at your sisters?
713
00:32:39,050 --> 00:32:41,310
Do you look at her as like more motherly or.
714
00:32:41,830 --> 00:32:43,310
I think she would like that.
715
00:32:44,870 --> 00:32:47,750
I think it's interesting because.
716
00:32:48,110 --> 00:32:49,330
And I only say this because of age.
717
00:32:49,470 --> 00:32:50,490
Because it's a, yeah, right.
718
00:32:50,630 --> 00:32:57,510
As a little kid, when I would go someplace with my sister, people just assumed I was their mom or they were my mom.
719
00:32:58,050 --> 00:32:59,630
So, so there was that.
720
00:32:59,790 --> 00:33:17,450
I think there's a feeling like that from, from my older sister, Paula, they're both older of the two sisters, but I, I see, you know, we have a very, we're very close to talk to her every day, but I don't feel that way.
721
00:33:17,530 --> 00:33:19,070
I feel like she's my sibling.
722
00:33:19,450 --> 00:33:19,890
Yeah.
723
00:33:19,930 --> 00:33:39,130
But you know, I think weirdly though, with my brother who I did not spend as much time with as a little kid, he's 20 years older, but I think just because of the, uh, being a guy and looking up to your bigger, your big brother, he was a God to me.
724
00:33:39,930 --> 00:33:48,030
You know, I, he was, I idolized him the way I think most kids idolize their father.
725
00:33:48,190 --> 00:33:48,450
Absolutely.
726
00:33:48,590 --> 00:33:48,750
Yeah.
727
00:33:48,810 --> 00:33:57,750
I mean, I, I told this to my older brother because coming into a family that doesn't speak English and you can't really, you can't really say your feelings.
728
00:33:57,750 --> 00:34:00,990
And as much as we speak Italian, we really don't.
729
00:34:01,110 --> 00:34:10,590
Um, we speak enough where we can, you know, live with our family and get across what we want to get across, but we can't sit down and talk to him one-on-one with your dad.
730
00:34:10,670 --> 00:34:13,290
Cause the language barriers just deep conversations.
731
00:34:13,550 --> 00:34:13,690
Yeah.
732
00:34:13,889 --> 00:34:16,770
You don't, he's not that person anyways.
733
00:34:16,949 --> 00:34:17,130
Right.
734
00:34:17,270 --> 00:34:25,550
So my mother would be great at that, but the language barriers there where you can't really sit down and, and, and confess all your feelings.
735
00:34:25,550 --> 00:34:33,370
And my brother, that was the only parental kind of, uh, parental, uh, person that I was afraid of.
736
00:34:33,389 --> 00:34:35,510
I was like, cause he would check on my school.
737
00:34:35,610 --> 00:34:37,949
He would know all the, he would talk to the teachers.
738
00:34:38,110 --> 00:34:38,989
He spoke English.
739
00:34:39,010 --> 00:34:41,730
So I had to worry about him, like worrying about a father.
740
00:34:41,830 --> 00:34:42,090
Yeah.
741
00:34:42,190 --> 00:34:59,030
And I told him the other day, you know, I was like, I was more worried about you finding out what I did and mom and dad, I don't care less what they thought because they were proud of the problem, you know, with the language and how they, you know, the old school ways of raising us.
742
00:34:59,150 --> 00:34:59,350
Yeah.
743
00:34:59,390 --> 00:35:00,250
Where I was afraid.
744
00:35:00,410 --> 00:35:02,970
I looked at my brother Pete as my father.
745
00:35:03,130 --> 00:35:03,390
Yep.
746
00:35:03,490 --> 00:35:03,710
Yeah.
747
00:35:03,850 --> 00:35:04,410
That's interesting.
748
00:35:04,670 --> 00:35:05,410
I know he's my brother.
749
00:35:05,710 --> 00:35:07,190
I also have that brotherly.
750
00:35:07,390 --> 00:35:08,450
I mean, he's my best friend.
751
00:35:08,590 --> 00:35:09,870
So how much older is Pete?
752
00:35:10,090 --> 00:35:11,670
Not that, uh, he's, uh, I'm 56.
753
00:35:11,850 --> 00:35:12,970
He's, he'll be 59.
754
00:35:13,290 --> 00:35:13,530
Okay.
755
00:35:13,590 --> 00:35:14,490
So he's 23 years older.
756
00:35:14,610 --> 00:35:14,970
Yeah.
757
00:35:15,330 --> 00:35:22,030
But no, yeah, it's, it's interesting with the, with the siblings, uh, how you end up with that, but yeah.
758
00:35:22,050 --> 00:35:22,330
Yeah.
759
00:35:22,330 --> 00:35:33,610
Help wise, what the help we will have is I think, you know, I have my sister here, uh, Lucille, I think is going to probably want to come from Texas to help when the baby's born.
760
00:35:34,370 --> 00:35:40,630
My brother won't do anything, but everything.
761
00:35:40,890 --> 00:35:41,130
Okay.
762
00:35:41,830 --> 00:35:42,730
Well, that's okay.
763
00:35:42,930 --> 00:35:43,670
And that's fine.
764
00:35:44,230 --> 00:35:45,610
But it'll be, it'll be good.
765
00:35:45,650 --> 00:35:47,910
We'll have some, well, you got all of us and, uh, that's right.
766
00:35:47,950 --> 00:35:48,810
And we have the podcast.
767
00:35:49,070 --> 00:35:49,350
Yeah.
768
00:35:49,350 --> 00:35:51,310
When you don't know what to do, you just listen to the podcast.
769
00:35:51,470 --> 00:35:51,690
That's right.
770
00:35:53,230 --> 00:35:55,430
I can call Christine and the Texas Redditor.
771
00:35:55,910 --> 00:35:56,010
Exactly.
772
00:35:56,390 --> 00:35:58,250
And get some more, get some more good advice.
773
00:35:58,490 --> 00:35:58,590
Yeah.
774
00:35:58,770 --> 00:36:02,590
So, well, that is, that is the silver Fox mailbox.
775
00:36:04,090 --> 00:36:07,750
And I guess we're going to take a little break.
776
00:36:07,950 --> 00:36:08,110
Yeah.
777
00:36:08,110 --> 00:36:09,850
Let's do some, uh, we'll take some photos.
778
00:36:10,010 --> 00:36:11,990
I think we're going to need to produce commercials.
779
00:36:12,250 --> 00:36:16,650
So when I say we're going to take a break that it's going to cut to, yeah.
780
00:36:16,650 --> 00:36:19,490
Well, we do have, we do have that commercial of the contest, right?
781
00:36:20,170 --> 00:36:20,490
Yeah.
782
00:36:21,250 --> 00:36:22,590
I was working a little bit.
783
00:36:22,690 --> 00:36:24,130
We might, we might put that in there.
784
00:36:24,210 --> 00:36:28,710
So you might see a commercial next, or we might just transition smoothly into a crash.
785
00:36:28,850 --> 00:36:29,330
Just daddy.
786
00:36:30,810 --> 00:36:32,430
Oh, am I going to have to dress up?
787
00:36:32,910 --> 00:36:34,510
I might have to put something on.
788
00:36:34,910 --> 00:36:36,770
This is, this is where you earn your pay.
789
00:36:36,830 --> 00:36:39,690
The nice, the nice thing about the podcast is I come over.
790
00:36:39,870 --> 00:36:42,970
I don't know really what he has planned until I come here.
791
00:36:42,970 --> 00:36:48,770
I have the sheet or sheets of agenda.
792
00:36:49,150 --> 00:36:49,990
We're going to talk about this.
793
00:36:50,350 --> 00:36:50,990
Put on a cup.
794
00:36:53,410 --> 00:36:55,630
Get into a dog suit.
795
00:36:56,070 --> 00:36:56,350
Oh yeah.
796
00:36:56,750 --> 00:36:57,930
Wear a cup.
797
00:36:58,130 --> 00:36:58,230
Yeah.
798
00:36:58,390 --> 00:37:01,530
But, uh, so we're going to be doing that right now.
799
00:37:02,730 --> 00:37:04,270
Name the baby.
800
00:37:05,010 --> 00:37:09,390
I am Frank Cereo of the gray hair and daycare podcast.
801
00:37:09,430 --> 00:37:11,670
I'm here with my cohost, Carlo Russo.
802
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:18,410
My wife and I are expecting our very first child, a little girl due in March.
803
00:37:18,610 --> 00:37:21,610
And we've selected a name that I cannot tell you.
804
00:37:21,970 --> 00:37:22,250
Why?
805
00:37:22,710 --> 00:37:29,050
Well, because this relationship is in the internet and you could be a lunatic.
806
00:37:29,690 --> 00:37:36,010
So just for fun, I decided to give you a chance to name the baby.
807
00:37:36,010 --> 00:37:37,770
To name my baby.
808
00:37:38,370 --> 00:37:51,350
In the comments below or in email, submit names and you'll have a chance to pick the name that I will be forced to call my little girl for the remainder of my podcasting career.
809
00:37:51,550 --> 00:37:52,710
Might not be that long.
810
00:37:53,550 --> 00:37:54,450
Fair enough.
811
00:37:55,110 --> 00:37:56,150
Then we'll vote.
812
00:37:56,690 --> 00:38:00,150
We will let democracy run its course, select a clear winner.
813
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:09,810
And much like elections recently, half of you will be left confused and bitter and deeply disappointed in each other.
814
00:38:10,170 --> 00:38:13,090
So let's name the baby.
815
00:38:13,410 --> 00:38:14,650
Name the baby.
816
00:38:15,930 --> 00:38:21,090
Here we are returning with crash test daddy.
817
00:38:21,330 --> 00:38:22,090
My favorite.
818
00:38:22,390 --> 00:38:25,730
This should be, this is where you get to do your thing.
819
00:38:25,870 --> 00:38:26,150
Okay.
820
00:38:26,210 --> 00:38:29,810
So I thought this time for crash test daddy, rather than just diving right in.
821
00:38:30,490 --> 00:38:36,150
We'll give you an opportunity to try to guess what it is you're going to tell.
822
00:38:36,210 --> 00:38:42,430
Now the only obvious giveaway is that the box says Lululemon all over it.
823
00:38:42,670 --> 00:38:44,150
But what are your thoughts?
824
00:38:44,190 --> 00:38:44,990
What do you think is in here?
825
00:38:45,890 --> 00:38:46,590
I'm okay.
826
00:38:47,230 --> 00:38:58,970
I know in the previous podcast, we were speaking about Kelly's new love of leggings.
827
00:39:00,210 --> 00:39:00,690
Yes.
828
00:39:01,490 --> 00:39:04,490
Now Lululemon, I believe is part of that.
829
00:39:05,310 --> 00:39:05,650
They are known.
830
00:39:05,830 --> 00:39:06,550
The high end.
831
00:39:06,630 --> 00:39:07,510
The high end of that.
832
00:39:07,730 --> 00:39:09,070
Athleisure for women.
833
00:39:09,270 --> 00:39:09,670
Exactly.
834
00:39:10,010 --> 00:39:17,930
And they do have, I will say, I do, I have not for you, but I have so much respect for Trina.
835
00:39:18,050 --> 00:39:21,390
I won't ask you to wear leggings or try them on.
836
00:39:21,670 --> 00:39:23,770
I don't know if I would do that.
837
00:39:24,230 --> 00:39:27,890
So it is not, we can rule out leggings.
838
00:39:28,050 --> 00:39:28,310
Okay.
839
00:39:32,420 --> 00:39:32,780
Okay.
840
00:39:33,260 --> 00:39:39,800
So I'm going to say maybe it's a, can I connect?
841
00:39:39,900 --> 00:39:41,160
Can I ask questions?
842
00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:42,040
I'll give you three.
843
00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:44,040
First of all, first of all, can I shake the box?
844
00:39:44,380 --> 00:39:45,200
Yes, you can.
845
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,200
That you can shape, do whatever you want to the box and three questions.
846
00:39:51,410 --> 00:39:52,370
Do you do this with people?
847
00:39:52,430 --> 00:39:54,910
Because I love making people guess stuff.
848
00:39:55,490 --> 00:39:56,810
I do it with Kelly.
849
00:39:56,950 --> 00:39:57,910
Kelly hates it.
850
00:39:57,930 --> 00:39:59,410
She's like, I don't want to play the game.
851
00:39:59,450 --> 00:40:00,710
I don't think I do that.
852
00:40:00,710 --> 00:40:02,670
I think Trina might go guess.
853
00:40:02,730 --> 00:40:03,770
Well, I don't know.
854
00:40:03,930 --> 00:40:07,210
I always liked it because I was good at guessing when I was a kid.
855
00:40:07,270 --> 00:40:07,450
Right.
856
00:40:07,750 --> 00:40:09,510
And I like to get, I like the game.
857
00:40:09,590 --> 00:40:11,550
I do it with people that work for me all the time.
858
00:40:11,610 --> 00:40:13,110
I don't know if they ate it, but they won't tell me.
859
00:40:13,270 --> 00:40:16,230
So this feels like there's not a lot of room when I'm shaking.
860
00:40:16,350 --> 00:40:18,170
There's, it's very tight to the box.
861
00:40:18,250 --> 00:40:18,710
Fair enough.
862
00:40:18,830 --> 00:40:19,130
Okay.
863
00:40:19,310 --> 00:40:27,350
It's so like, like some, you would say like a, a pillow or a blanket that is wrapped.
864
00:40:27,450 --> 00:40:29,010
That's, that's filling the box.
865
00:40:29,010 --> 00:40:32,550
So first question, can I wear this?
866
00:40:32,650 --> 00:40:33,710
Not me personally.
867
00:40:33,770 --> 00:40:35,790
I mean, do people wear this?
868
00:40:36,070 --> 00:40:36,250
Yeah.
869
00:40:36,290 --> 00:40:36,810
Technically.
870
00:40:36,890 --> 00:40:37,210
Yes.
871
00:40:37,830 --> 00:40:38,510
Technically.
872
00:40:39,190 --> 00:40:39,870
Yes.
873
00:40:40,070 --> 00:40:42,570
Is this for the baby or Kelly?
874
00:40:43,310 --> 00:40:46,150
Is that a question that you can answer?
875
00:40:46,650 --> 00:40:50,990
I think it is more for the parents than the child.
876
00:40:51,070 --> 00:40:51,470
Okay.
877
00:40:57,450 --> 00:41:07,230
Is this for leaving the house or, or sleeping?
878
00:41:08,090 --> 00:41:13,370
It is for mobile activities for leaving the house.
879
00:41:13,510 --> 00:41:16,830
So you're starting to, you're starting to, I'm, it's interesting watching you at work.
880
00:41:17,390 --> 00:41:19,870
So yeah, but now you only got one left.
881
00:41:20,430 --> 00:41:20,870
Hmm.
882
00:41:21,790 --> 00:41:30,270
So we've established, I think it can be worn and it is for out of the house, not sleeping.
883
00:41:30,670 --> 00:41:31,270
Okay.
884
00:41:31,310 --> 00:41:40,510
I'm going to say that it's some, it's a diaper changing, holding like a baby things, wipes.
885
00:41:40,850 --> 00:41:41,850
What's that called?
886
00:41:41,890 --> 00:41:47,490
A, a, like a backpack or something to hold all the baby stuff.
887
00:41:48,470 --> 00:41:50,150
I think you got it.
888
00:41:50,210 --> 00:41:51,530
It is a diaper bag.
889
00:41:51,590 --> 00:41:52,050
Are you serious?
890
00:41:52,350 --> 00:41:53,290
Yeah, that's what it is.
891
00:41:53,590 --> 00:41:54,150
It is.
892
00:41:54,330 --> 00:41:57,690
Well, now of course, Lululemon, it has to be, you go ahead and dig in.
893
00:41:57,790 --> 00:42:02,890
They call it a, this is called the Lululemon new parent backpack.
894
00:42:03,650 --> 00:42:04,270
Oh my God.
895
00:42:04,310 --> 00:42:07,290
I was 17L is the model.
896
00:42:07,370 --> 00:42:15,050
Oh, 17L, L is for lousy, L is for luxury or Lululemon.
897
00:42:15,250 --> 00:42:16,210
I'm going to move this a little bit.
898
00:42:16,210 --> 00:42:16,790
There you go.
899
00:42:17,710 --> 00:42:24,110
So, yeah, that's a lot of, a lot of evaluation went into the selection of this.
900
00:42:24,730 --> 00:42:32,790
Um, there was some questions on color, um, that, uh, Kelly was trying to get me to, it was trying to get me to weigh in.
901
00:42:32,830 --> 00:42:34,910
I said, do you just pick whatever color you like?
902
00:42:36,570 --> 00:42:37,550
There you go.
903
00:42:40,030 --> 00:42:41,790
So you want me to open it or go right?
904
00:42:41,850 --> 00:42:42,270
Dig right in.
905
00:42:42,330 --> 00:42:46,350
Oh yeah, I want, we want to, you know, you don't have to get up and try it on like you did with the other stuff.
906
00:42:46,790 --> 00:42:48,210
But yeah, take it out of there.
907
00:42:48,670 --> 00:42:50,650
So I don't want to, I like the color.
908
00:42:51,530 --> 00:43:01,170
So it's a backpack obviously, but it has, so this has the two things that Kelly really liked about it is it has a smaller thing.
909
00:43:01,310 --> 00:43:03,290
So take the stuff out, there's other stuff going on in there.
910
00:43:04,250 --> 00:43:07,970
So it has a little extra bag for supplies and things.
911
00:43:08,150 --> 00:43:08,470
Absolutely.
912
00:43:08,890 --> 00:43:12,790
And it has a changing pad that it comes with.
913
00:43:13,090 --> 00:43:13,550
Okay.
914
00:43:13,810 --> 00:43:15,570
Which might be in that other thing.
915
00:43:15,570 --> 00:43:18,850
I don't know, but it has a changing pad.
916
00:43:18,970 --> 00:43:24,730
It has the other kind of little purse thing and it's very nice apparently.
917
00:43:25,670 --> 00:43:26,710
So this is it.
918
00:43:26,810 --> 00:43:28,330
This is the, the Lululemon.
919
00:43:28,470 --> 00:43:30,950
Lululemon changing pad.
920
00:43:30,950 --> 00:43:33,430
New parent backpack 17L.
921
00:43:33,570 --> 00:43:35,790
It is $198.
922
00:43:37,150 --> 00:43:38,270
Excuse me.
923
00:43:39,870 --> 00:43:41,310
Um, yeah.
924
00:43:41,310 --> 00:43:47,770
Just to let you know, unless it's one of those in there or some, maybe it's in that thing.
925
00:43:47,950 --> 00:43:48,850
Maybe it's in that thing.
926
00:43:48,910 --> 00:43:49,190
Yeah.
927
00:43:49,310 --> 00:43:49,950
Give it a try.
928
00:43:50,090 --> 00:43:50,470
Go right.
929
00:43:50,550 --> 00:43:51,290
Get in the purse.
930
00:43:51,390 --> 00:43:52,890
I'm going to get or whatever that is.
931
00:43:53,790 --> 00:43:56,070
So that I feel something in here.
932
00:43:56,390 --> 00:43:57,830
Yeah, there it is.
933
00:43:58,070 --> 00:43:59,050
So there's a little pad.
934
00:43:59,190 --> 00:44:01,250
So we have the, the mat.
935
00:44:01,790 --> 00:44:04,810
So there's a little changing, baby yoga mat.
936
00:44:07,530 --> 00:44:09,090
So they can do Pilates.
937
00:44:09,630 --> 00:44:10,890
This is very cool.
938
00:44:10,890 --> 00:44:18,310
You're going to need this because you'll be changing the baby in many different places that you don't want to use their stuff.
939
00:44:18,970 --> 00:44:19,450
Right.
940
00:44:19,850 --> 00:44:21,890
You don't want your child to touch that.
941
00:44:22,110 --> 00:44:24,250
So you can lift that thing out.
942
00:44:24,790 --> 00:44:25,030
Excellent.
943
00:44:25,290 --> 00:44:26,070
It's really nice.
944
00:44:26,190 --> 00:44:28,630
I want to let you feel how this whole thing feels like that.
945
00:44:28,890 --> 00:44:29,170
Okay.
946
00:44:29,350 --> 00:44:30,410
It's really, really nice.
947
00:44:30,610 --> 00:44:34,290
And it seems, it feels like the kind of material that will clean up very nicely.
948
00:44:34,710 --> 00:44:36,170
Because there will be stuff on this.
949
00:44:36,290 --> 00:44:37,430
All kinds of things.
950
00:44:37,990 --> 00:44:41,030
So $198.
951
00:44:41,710 --> 00:44:46,670
Now, again, again, you guys keep this in mind when I ask you to guess what the new check, please.
952
00:44:46,810 --> 00:44:50,590
It is later in the car, $198, 98, 200 bucks.
953
00:44:50,870 --> 00:44:53,890
Now again, can I tell you what I used?
954
00:44:54,690 --> 00:44:55,170
Sure.
955
00:44:56,250 --> 00:44:57,550
I didn't go $200.
956
00:44:58,990 --> 00:45:00,810
It was a Jan sport.
957
00:45:01,670 --> 00:45:05,470
It was a Wegman's bag, the grocery bag.
958
00:45:06,350 --> 00:45:09,470
So when I got a job at a bank.
959
00:45:09,850 --> 00:45:10,270
Right.
960
00:45:10,510 --> 00:45:11,310
At the time.
961
00:45:11,570 --> 00:45:12,070
Now we're going back.
962
00:45:12,070 --> 00:45:13,370
If you opened an account, you got a backpack.
963
00:45:13,390 --> 00:45:14,170
Yeah, and a baby.
964
00:45:15,330 --> 00:45:16,130
And a baby.
965
00:45:16,370 --> 00:45:17,330
23 years ago.
966
00:45:17,550 --> 00:45:18,390
And then 18 years ago.
967
00:45:18,930 --> 00:45:25,030
Back then, the hottest thing was that man purse over the strap.
968
00:45:25,550 --> 00:45:26,310
Remember the man purse?
969
00:45:26,430 --> 00:45:29,310
I never participated in that fad, but okay.
970
00:45:30,290 --> 00:45:31,350
Now, not a fanny pack.
971
00:45:31,710 --> 00:45:33,950
Not a fanny pack, but a true man purse.
972
00:45:33,950 --> 00:45:34,710
A man purse.
973
00:45:34,710 --> 00:45:35,090
Okay.
974
00:45:35,790 --> 00:45:39,270
So I believe one day, it might've been Christmas.
975
00:45:39,490 --> 00:45:40,490
It might've been a birthday.
976
00:45:41,030 --> 00:45:43,030
My wife thought, you have all this stuff for work.
977
00:45:43,650 --> 00:45:47,370
This looks manly enough, but you're still wearing a purse.
978
00:45:47,710 --> 00:45:52,450
And she gave me one and I would put my paperwork in there and whatever I needed for the bank.
979
00:45:53,310 --> 00:46:01,850
So when I quit the bank and we had our second, I turned that into our carrier.
980
00:46:02,050 --> 00:46:02,550
Okay.
981
00:46:02,550 --> 00:46:07,070
So I had this stuff and then I would put the pad in there, all the stuff in it.
982
00:46:07,530 --> 00:46:08,270
It was great.
983
00:46:08,510 --> 00:46:11,050
So I went from looking weird with this purse.
984
00:46:11,050 --> 00:46:12,710
So I'm the daddy of the year.
985
00:46:12,850 --> 00:46:14,310
I'm walking around, look cool.
986
00:46:14,390 --> 00:46:18,550
I got this thing, Italian look, very European look.
987
00:46:18,610 --> 00:46:20,970
Now see, I appreciate a nice bag.
988
00:46:21,110 --> 00:46:22,490
Like my laptop bag for work.
989
00:46:22,610 --> 00:46:22,910
Gorgeous.
990
00:46:23,070 --> 00:46:23,870
I'm nice.
991
00:46:24,010 --> 00:46:25,090
I like it.
992
00:46:25,270 --> 00:46:28,330
It could be described as a man purse.
993
00:46:28,550 --> 00:46:33,630
I was actually going to say, I remember when we worked together, the nice tan leather, I still use it.
994
00:46:33,770 --> 00:46:34,990
And they hold up very, very well.
995
00:46:35,370 --> 00:46:42,510
What I keep getting pushed in my social media feeds now is all the tactical dad stuff.
996
00:46:42,630 --> 00:46:54,710
So it looks like you're going to the gun range, but it's made for, it looks like you're either going to go to, you know, like a baby with your kid, or you're going to go be deployed to Iraq.
997
00:46:54,830 --> 00:46:56,070
Like you can't tell.
998
00:46:56,430 --> 00:47:01,410
So this is, and the cool thing is with this, it does have the backpack.
999
00:47:01,770 --> 00:47:05,090
And is that for one of the things I only know, like, is it for shotgun shells?
1000
00:47:05,290 --> 00:47:06,270
Like what is that for?
1001
00:47:06,390 --> 00:47:07,010
Hold that.
1002
00:47:07,170 --> 00:47:07,370
Okay.
1003
00:47:07,410 --> 00:47:07,650
Yeah.
1004
00:47:07,650 --> 00:47:08,490
Let's look at that.
1005
00:47:10,330 --> 00:47:11,730
What is that for?
1006
00:47:11,890 --> 00:47:12,930
I don't, I don't know.
1007
00:47:13,050 --> 00:47:14,150
What are you going to stuff in there?
1008
00:47:14,450 --> 00:47:15,810
It does look like gun shells.
1009
00:47:17,490 --> 00:47:18,010
That's it.
1010
00:47:18,070 --> 00:47:19,190
When you need it, when you need it.
1011
00:47:19,190 --> 00:47:19,750
I think maybe.
1012
00:47:20,050 --> 00:47:20,310
I don't know.
1013
00:47:20,370 --> 00:47:20,870
Some buckshot.
1014
00:47:21,490 --> 00:47:25,030
But this is cool because you're going to need your hands.
1015
00:47:25,310 --> 00:47:25,690
Yeah.
1016
00:47:25,710 --> 00:47:27,850
And having this on the, this is awesome.
1017
00:47:27,850 --> 00:47:28,010
The backpack.
1018
00:47:28,330 --> 00:47:28,450
Yeah.
1019
00:47:29,410 --> 00:47:31,190
Feature because your hands have to be free.
1020
00:47:31,450 --> 00:47:43,050
So I'm going to, what I'm picturing is that this, the size of this thing and that kind of a shoulder strap, I'm going to look like a, like King Kong with a, with a normal size backpack.
1021
00:47:43,350 --> 00:47:45,090
So this is for both of you, of course.
1022
00:47:45,370 --> 00:47:45,730
Sure.
1023
00:47:47,150 --> 00:47:50,010
Until I get the, the, the tactical dad back.
1024
00:47:50,090 --> 00:47:51,010
You're going to, yeah, yeah, yeah.
1025
00:47:51,330 --> 00:47:51,930
So that's cool.
1026
00:47:51,970 --> 00:47:54,030
So $200, right around $200.
1027
00:47:54,570 --> 00:47:56,670
It is the new parent backpack.
1028
00:47:57,210 --> 00:48:02,250
I think it's funny that they specify for new parents because experienced parents would never spend $200.
1029
00:48:03,150 --> 00:48:10,650
Like I said, I went to my bank man purse and I made it into that.
1030
00:48:11,830 --> 00:48:12,890
Well, that was, that's a good buy.
1031
00:48:13,110 --> 00:48:13,910
It's good material.
1032
00:48:14,130 --> 00:48:15,110
It's good quality.
1033
00:48:15,290 --> 00:48:16,730
It seems like, it seems like it is well-made.
1034
00:48:16,850 --> 00:48:17,510
And like you said.
1035
00:48:17,550 --> 00:48:19,850
And it does, this stuff seems like it's going to hold up.
1036
00:48:20,430 --> 00:48:20,630
Yeah.
1037
00:48:20,890 --> 00:48:22,490
So that is it.
1038
00:48:22,550 --> 00:48:23,490
The mystery box.
1039
00:48:23,490 --> 00:48:25,650
I'm kind of, you know, I'm doing pretty good at this stuff.
1040
00:48:25,650 --> 00:48:27,190
I guess out of a box.
1041
00:48:27,590 --> 00:48:27,730
Yeah.
1042
00:48:27,990 --> 00:48:28,270
Yeah.
1043
00:48:28,270 --> 00:48:31,890
You do it with three, three questions and a shake and you got it.
1044
00:48:31,890 --> 00:48:34,030
That was pretty, especially cause Lululemon.
1045
00:48:34,130 --> 00:48:36,510
I, when I saw it arrive, I'm like, what the hell is this?
1046
00:48:36,610 --> 00:48:39,350
I mean, at first I said the legging thing.
1047
00:48:39,370 --> 00:48:40,610
So when you took that out.
1048
00:48:40,670 --> 00:48:40,990
Yeah.
1049
00:48:41,090 --> 00:48:41,930
Of course.
1050
00:48:42,230 --> 00:48:43,290
No, that was fun.
1051
00:48:43,350 --> 00:48:44,250
You're going to use a lot of that.
1052
00:48:44,490 --> 00:48:45,510
It's going to come very handy.
1053
00:48:45,710 --> 00:48:46,150
That'll be it.
1054
00:48:46,170 --> 00:48:46,750
So that's it.
1055
00:48:46,770 --> 00:48:48,430
So that is the crash test.
1056
00:48:48,490 --> 00:48:53,990
Daddy, the Lululemon new parent backpack 17 L in chartreuse.
1057
00:48:54,050 --> 00:48:55,030
I don't know what that color is.
1058
00:48:55,650 --> 00:48:57,630
For one 98 us dollars.
1059
00:48:57,830 --> 00:49:01,670
So now we will move on to what just happened.
1060
00:49:01,870 --> 00:49:02,950
What just happened, Frank?
1061
00:49:03,090 --> 00:49:17,430
So the, the news of the week, again, pregnancy wise, not a lot of things, you know, weird things happening, but her, the nice thing is appetite going strong.
1062
00:49:17,610 --> 00:49:18,270
Oh, that's good.
1063
00:49:18,390 --> 00:49:18,610
Yeah.
1064
00:49:18,610 --> 00:49:21,150
So she's, she's eating much better.
1065
00:49:21,150 --> 00:49:33,550
Um, the other day we ordered pizza and I was, this was the only time I think ever where Kelly had one more slice than me.
1066
00:49:33,710 --> 00:49:35,010
I'm like, wow.
1067
00:49:35,130 --> 00:49:44,850
Like that's like normally I typically have two pieces, maybe three, if I'm really hungry and Kelly, never more than a slice of one slice, right?
1068
00:49:44,850 --> 00:49:48,530
Like she's not a big eater and she's going back for number three.
1069
00:49:48,590 --> 00:49:49,930
I'm like this number three.
1070
00:49:49,930 --> 00:49:50,250
Yeah.
1071
00:49:50,510 --> 00:49:51,390
I had two slices.
1072
00:49:51,470 --> 00:49:51,870
She had three.
1073
00:49:51,990 --> 00:49:52,750
I'm like, wow.
1074
00:49:53,330 --> 00:49:53,910
So yeah.
1075
00:49:54,030 --> 00:49:54,350
Yeah.
1076
00:49:54,370 --> 00:49:55,030
I've never seen.
1077
00:49:55,190 --> 00:49:55,610
No, I'm excited.
1078
00:49:55,610 --> 00:49:56,230
I'm excited.
1079
00:49:56,510 --> 00:50:04,170
Like, I like, I know that she still has, has challenges with the, the acid reflux stuff, but it's nowhere near as bad.
1080
00:50:04,170 --> 00:50:06,070
And just to see that her, we're doing that.
1081
00:50:06,210 --> 00:50:16,550
But I will say the other day, she's on her way to work and she's like, well, I've got to start watching because I gained three pounds in the last week.
1082
00:50:16,550 --> 00:50:19,090
And I'm like, so what?
1083
00:50:19,170 --> 00:50:21,910
Well, I should be gaining two pounds a week.
1084
00:50:22,010 --> 00:50:25,610
I'm like, okay, you need to just give yourself a little room.
1085
00:50:26,010 --> 00:50:32,050
Like, first of all, we had gone over to my, my sister and her husband's house and Avi's a great cook.
1086
00:50:32,590 --> 00:50:34,030
He did this recipe.
1087
00:50:34,190 --> 00:50:35,710
He found a recipe in Italian.
1088
00:50:35,970 --> 00:50:36,670
Of course.
1089
00:50:36,910 --> 00:50:37,150
Okay.
1090
00:50:37,290 --> 00:50:41,490
And it was a lasagna with a bolognese.
1091
00:50:41,690 --> 00:50:43,050
Oh, no cheese.
1092
00:50:43,050 --> 00:50:46,510
It had a bechamel sauce instead of the cheese, instead of the mozzarella.
1093
00:50:47,050 --> 00:50:48,610
It was, it was great.
1094
00:50:48,730 --> 00:50:49,470
It was delicious.
1095
00:50:49,930 --> 00:50:51,230
We both had two pieces.
1096
00:50:51,430 --> 00:50:51,590
Yeah.
1097
00:50:51,830 --> 00:50:53,990
I mean, you had two pieces of lasagna last night for dinner.
1098
00:50:54,310 --> 00:50:55,670
Like, just take it easy.
1099
00:50:55,750 --> 00:50:57,590
Just keep, if you're hungry, you should eat.
1100
00:50:57,730 --> 00:50:57,830
Yeah.
1101
00:50:58,130 --> 00:51:01,870
So, so that stuff has been, has been really good.
1102
00:51:02,010 --> 00:51:11,290
And it also, the other, when we were coming home from somewhere the other day, we're walking in the house, you know, as you know, you come over and it's pandemonium with the dogs.
1103
00:51:11,550 --> 00:51:12,410
It's the same thing with us.
1104
00:51:12,970 --> 00:51:14,830
They're a little bit more subdued with us.
1105
00:51:14,950 --> 00:51:19,830
They're not jumping as much, but still they're scampering around and I'm coming in and I hear this noise.
1106
00:51:19,930 --> 00:51:20,190
I don't know.
1107
00:51:20,330 --> 00:51:22,630
And I'm like, what was that?
1108
00:51:22,750 --> 00:51:26,490
And Kelly goes, it was the return of Fartzilla.
1109
00:51:30,710 --> 00:51:39,130
So Fartzilla has returned on occasion, thanks to, thanks to her increased appetite and eating more.
1110
00:51:39,170 --> 00:51:40,450
But I'm, I'm very happy.
1111
00:51:40,450 --> 00:51:43,250
Well, you got, you got to blame it on the, uh, the baby.
1112
00:51:43,350 --> 00:51:44,430
Well, I like, you know what?
1113
00:51:44,470 --> 00:51:44,890
That's it.
1114
00:51:44,970 --> 00:51:46,050
I'm a hundred percent.
1115
00:51:46,130 --> 00:51:47,330
It's all her fault.
1116
00:51:48,190 --> 00:51:49,210
Blame it on the corn.
1117
00:51:49,550 --> 00:51:52,450
So I'm happy to see her doing that.
1118
00:51:52,550 --> 00:51:57,010
So I'm trying to like, yeah, she, she does.
1119
00:51:57,090 --> 00:52:02,650
She has sometimes has trouble getting comfortable, but with the, with the special pillow, she does.
1120
00:52:02,690 --> 00:52:03,110
Okay.
1121
00:52:03,790 --> 00:52:04,230
Generally.
1122
00:52:04,410 --> 00:52:04,670
Yeah.
1123
00:52:04,790 --> 00:52:05,030
Right.
1124
00:52:05,030 --> 00:52:10,990
This, this whole part of, of the pregnancy is, has been pretty, pretty easy compared to the beginning.
1125
00:52:11,470 --> 00:52:12,290
So it's good.
1126
00:52:12,810 --> 00:52:13,610
It's been good.
1127
00:52:13,990 --> 00:52:17,330
And you said she doesn't eat sweets or ice creams or stuff.
1128
00:52:17,390 --> 00:52:18,010
That's not her.
1129
00:52:18,270 --> 00:52:19,270
No, it's not her jam.
1130
00:52:19,390 --> 00:52:20,110
No, she doesn't.
1131
00:52:20,190 --> 00:52:21,050
She's not, doesn't it really?
1132
00:52:21,210 --> 00:52:21,470
How about you?
1133
00:52:24,890 --> 00:52:27,770
It's what, well, it's fun now because I can get her to eat.
1134
00:52:28,770 --> 00:52:31,030
Again, Javi made these brownies.
1135
00:52:31,030 --> 00:52:38,690
So we went home with, we didn't have any because my sister had made apple, uh, uh, like an apple crumble.
1136
00:52:38,910 --> 00:52:39,290
Crumble thing.
1137
00:52:39,370 --> 00:52:39,550
Yeah.
1138
00:52:39,650 --> 00:52:42,430
And it was delicious and made from apples.
1139
00:52:42,610 --> 00:52:43,690
We are apples.
1140
00:52:44,230 --> 00:52:48,790
So you put vanilla ice cream with that or whipped cream, a little whipped cream, but it was very good.
1141
00:52:48,950 --> 00:52:49,950
She had that too.
1142
00:52:50,190 --> 00:52:53,090
But, and then they're like, here, try the, you know, try the brownies.
1143
00:52:53,390 --> 00:53:00,250
And I, I was too full, but so the next day I'm like, it's, it's like a novelty for me to like offer.
1144
00:53:00,810 --> 00:53:03,710
Cause she would always like, whatever it was, I would take the bigger one.
1145
00:53:03,770 --> 00:53:05,070
And now I'm like, go ahead.
1146
00:53:05,290 --> 00:53:06,430
And she takes the bigger one.
1147
00:53:06,450 --> 00:53:06,990
It's so cute.
1148
00:53:07,530 --> 00:53:08,250
So yeah.
1149
00:53:08,250 --> 00:53:08,830
So it's good.
1150
00:53:08,850 --> 00:53:09,690
And the brownies rack.
1151
00:53:09,830 --> 00:53:12,970
Welcome to our side of food.
1152
00:53:13,250 --> 00:53:14,570
I know it's just going to go right back.
1153
00:53:14,630 --> 00:53:15,050
I know.
1154
00:53:15,090 --> 00:53:18,090
As soon as she has the baby, she's already talking about, I got to watch my weight.
1155
00:53:18,190 --> 00:53:18,890
No, you don't.
1156
00:53:19,030 --> 00:53:19,510
No, you don't.
1157
00:53:19,670 --> 00:53:21,090
But hit that baby nice and fast.
1158
00:53:21,210 --> 00:53:32,390
Now, now the thing that has come up, cause she's, she's been talking about, we talked about a little bit in the last episode, she's been talking about how she feels it's hard for her to maneuver.
1159
00:53:33,150 --> 00:53:36,470
And I'm like, you know, it's not that, you know, your belly's not that big.
1160
00:53:36,710 --> 00:53:40,250
And she made the point, look, that's all happening under her ab.
1161
00:53:40,730 --> 00:53:40,990
Right.
1162
00:53:41,110 --> 00:53:46,090
So her abdominal muscles, her core is very unstable.
1163
00:53:46,590 --> 00:53:50,770
And as a result, now I think her, her back is getting real tight.
1164
00:53:51,110 --> 00:53:54,710
So the other morning she asked, will you run my back?
1165
00:53:54,710 --> 00:53:58,210
I'm like back to Texas, Redditor say, get good at back rubs.
1166
00:53:58,370 --> 00:53:59,350
He was spot on.
1167
00:53:59,370 --> 00:54:00,170
It's like, I read that.
1168
00:54:00,250 --> 00:54:05,090
And like the next day, so I, I start, I start rubbing and smaller back.
1169
00:54:05,110 --> 00:54:07,810
It's like, there's knuckle, like she has knots in her back.
1170
00:54:08,130 --> 00:54:11,930
Luckily I was able to work them out and, and that's it.
1171
00:54:11,950 --> 00:54:12,290
But yeah.
1172
00:54:12,390 --> 00:54:15,830
So every once in a while, she's like, you know, give me a background.
1173
00:54:15,970 --> 00:54:16,170
Yeah.
1174
00:54:16,410 --> 00:54:18,110
And I'm happy to do it.
1175
00:54:18,310 --> 00:54:27,190
I think the other thing too, is if she sits like she was doing some work, he's on her laptop, sitting on the couch and she just stayed in the same position too long.
1176
00:54:27,210 --> 00:54:29,450
And that throws it out of whack too.
1177
00:54:29,890 --> 00:54:34,290
Now last, last one is not a, I'm not ruining anything.
1178
00:54:34,410 --> 00:54:36,290
The last episode you felt.
1179
00:54:36,710 --> 00:54:37,270
Yeah.
1180
00:54:37,350 --> 00:54:37,850
Something.
1181
00:54:38,130 --> 00:54:38,350
Yep.
1182
00:54:38,850 --> 00:54:40,010
Any new feelings?
1183
00:54:40,310 --> 00:54:42,410
She has, she's feeling stuff all the time.
1184
00:54:42,430 --> 00:54:43,010
Of course.
1185
00:54:43,170 --> 00:54:54,230
And I have one other time felt a little, the, the thing that she described to me just the other day is there was a foot sighting.
1186
00:54:54,650 --> 00:54:56,230
Like, Oh yeah.
1187
00:54:56,270 --> 00:54:56,970
We were talking about that.
1188
00:54:57,150 --> 00:54:57,330
Yeah.
1189
00:54:57,450 --> 00:54:59,650
And so that, that was the first she was excited.
1190
00:54:59,810 --> 00:55:01,190
She's like, yeah, I think I saw something.
1191
00:55:02,050 --> 00:55:03,830
So there, there was that.
1192
00:55:03,970 --> 00:55:09,470
So working on the massages, she's, she's keep trying to keep her back loose.
1193
00:55:10,250 --> 00:55:20,510
And then the other funny thing was, so this, this past weekend for about the last year, maybe a little bit longer, I started volunteering at church.
1194
00:55:20,510 --> 00:55:25,910
So I do, you know, they have, you fill out the form and what you'll do.
1195
00:55:26,090 --> 00:55:35,690
So I volunteered for all three masses and then I do either, either marriage baptisms, whatever you need.
1196
00:55:36,710 --> 00:55:40,510
So I volunteered to do either greeter, usher or reader.
1197
00:55:40,970 --> 00:55:46,630
And so I never know is most people, they volunteer for like whatever mass they want to go to.
1198
00:55:46,890 --> 00:55:47,030
Right.
1199
00:55:47,030 --> 00:55:50,030
But they were saying how they, they really need help, especially for us.
1200
00:55:50,090 --> 00:55:50,770
So I just, okay.
1201
00:55:50,870 --> 00:55:51,310
All three.
1202
00:55:51,490 --> 00:56:01,810
And so I get moved around like some, most of the time we're going to 10 o'clock on Sunday, but sometimes floater put me in coach, like wherever you need, wherever you need me.
1203
00:56:01,970 --> 00:56:02,130
I'm there.
1204
00:56:02,150 --> 00:56:05,030
So, so sometimes most of the time is 10 o'clock.
1205
00:56:05,050 --> 00:56:07,350
Sometimes we'll do the Saturday vigil.
1206
00:56:08,570 --> 00:56:15,330
But, and most of the time I'm an usher a couple of times I've read, but they had a meeting for all of those ministries.
1207
00:56:15,330 --> 00:56:20,570
So all the people who do greeter, usher, reader, or Eucharistic minister.
1208
00:56:20,690 --> 00:56:20,950
Sure.
1209
00:56:21,250 --> 00:56:23,590
Had a little meeting that we had to go to.
1210
00:56:24,050 --> 00:56:34,550
So Saturday morning I get my coffee and I go down and months ago in the very beginning, this would have been week five.
1211
00:56:34,730 --> 00:56:35,010
Okay.
1212
00:56:35,350 --> 00:56:35,590
Wow.
1213
00:56:35,710 --> 00:56:42,590
I was greeting during one mass and there's a three entrances to at Sacred Heart where we go.
1214
00:56:42,590 --> 00:56:46,630
And I was at one of the entrances where normally I'm just out there.
1215
00:56:46,730 --> 00:56:52,370
If I'm greeting, it's me, but father see the pastor, he's kind of a new pastor to us.
1216
00:56:52,410 --> 00:56:55,990
He's been there about a year, young guy doing a really good job.
1217
00:56:56,570 --> 00:57:00,350
And so he happened to be out there and he was greeting people on that entrance.
1218
00:57:00,470 --> 00:57:01,410
Normally he would be out front.
1219
00:57:02,450 --> 00:57:09,470
And so when I had the opportunity, cause it was very early on, I'm like, Hey father, you know, say a little extra prayer for me.
1220
00:57:09,470 --> 00:57:17,110
And, you know, I told him, and of course he's probably maybe latter thirties, might be 40.
1221
00:57:17,810 --> 00:57:19,430
So I'm telling him, yeah, it's our first.
1222
00:57:19,630 --> 00:57:26,630
And you could, you could see a little bit of, but we didn't have a lot of time.
1223
00:57:27,430 --> 00:57:29,290
So he kind of, that was it.
1224
00:57:29,330 --> 00:57:30,970
He was like, Oh yeah, it's first for both of us.
1225
00:57:31,310 --> 00:57:33,650
And then, you know, people came in and he's greeting them.
1226
00:57:33,730 --> 00:57:34,830
And that was it.
1227
00:57:34,830 --> 00:57:39,590
So I haven't had a conversation with him in a while since we talked about that.
1228
00:57:40,470 --> 00:57:44,550
So I walk in and there's father's team before the meeting gets going.
1229
00:57:44,610 --> 00:57:46,750
And he looks at me and I walk over and say, hello.
1230
00:57:46,830 --> 00:57:47,890
He's like, how are things going?
1231
00:57:48,510 --> 00:57:50,810
And I tell him that things are going great.
1232
00:57:50,850 --> 00:57:52,290
And give him a little update.
1233
00:57:52,370 --> 00:57:59,610
I told him the story about the doctor and how they thought I was, he just, he's like, Oh, you know, you kind of chuckled at that.
1234
00:57:59,650 --> 00:58:03,170
And then again, he's like, so what's your first?
1235
00:58:03,970 --> 00:58:06,090
Don't try to figure that out.
1236
00:58:06,450 --> 00:58:07,930
I don't know how many times it is.
1237
00:58:08,030 --> 00:58:08,210
Yeah.
1238
00:58:08,270 --> 00:58:08,530
Yeah.
1239
00:58:08,530 --> 00:58:08,850
That's it.
1240
00:58:08,890 --> 00:58:09,610
I didn't forget it.
1241
00:58:09,670 --> 00:58:13,470
Like, yeah, no, it's not like, yeah, I misplaced the word and I figured I'd try again.
1242
00:58:13,710 --> 00:58:19,150
But yeah, I thought it was, it was kind of comical with the, with father's first one.
1243
00:58:19,330 --> 00:58:33,690
But then we went to mass later that day and we're going up for communion and after mass we're leaving and, and Kelly turns to me and goes, I think father, she wanted to smile at me, but he stopped himself.
1244
00:58:34,150 --> 00:58:34,970
That's hilarious.
1245
00:58:35,650 --> 00:58:36,050
Yeah.
1246
00:58:36,230 --> 00:58:36,810
Thumbs up.
1247
00:58:37,230 --> 00:58:38,910
I thought that was, that was cute.
1248
00:58:39,110 --> 00:58:44,210
So we, you know, we've been trying to figure out what kind of a design we want for the nursery and what we're going to do.
1249
00:58:45,910 --> 00:58:57,410
And, and Kelly found this, I really like, so there's no overhead lighting, the room, the room that we're going to be using as a nursery, the previous owners of the home, it was a little boy's room.
1250
00:58:57,450 --> 00:58:57,770
Okay.
1251
00:58:57,770 --> 00:59:01,970
And so there's like a track light on the one wall.
1252
00:59:02,130 --> 00:59:03,330
It's not, it's got to come out.
1253
00:59:03,470 --> 00:59:04,790
There's no overhead lighting.
1254
00:59:04,850 --> 00:59:05,550
So that was the overhead.
1255
00:59:05,810 --> 00:59:05,970
Yep.
1256
00:59:06,150 --> 00:59:13,130
So I've got to do, I'm going to put in a couple overhead lights, but we're trying to find something for a kid's room.
1257
00:59:14,050 --> 00:59:18,930
And Kelly found these really adorable, they look like a hot air balloon.
1258
00:59:19,230 --> 00:59:19,550
Okay.
1259
00:59:19,650 --> 00:59:20,790
But it's a light fixture.
1260
00:59:20,950 --> 00:59:23,270
It's like, and then there's two different sizes.
1261
00:59:23,270 --> 00:59:38,810
So I'm going to put up two in the corner and, and one, the, one of the larger ones on the other side of the room, because that's the other thing that's weird about this room is in the center of the ceiling is the access for the attic.
1262
00:59:39,170 --> 00:59:42,470
So there's, so you can't put it right in the center where it would make sense.
1263
00:59:42,930 --> 00:59:47,870
So we, we got, we've done some work and I think we have some solid design ideas.
1264
00:59:47,870 --> 00:59:55,430
I immediately am starting to think, I'm trying to think of how far to take the theming, but we'll see about that.
1265
00:59:55,470 --> 00:59:57,390
So we got some, some of that stuff on order.
1266
00:59:57,810 --> 00:59:59,290
That's what just happened.
1267
00:59:59,430 --> 01:00:02,070
And now we are on to check, please.
1268
01:00:02,790 --> 01:00:13,810
So if you recall our total as of the last time we did check, please, which was two episodes ago was $370 and 8 cents.
1269
01:00:14,370 --> 01:00:18,150
So in two weeks, we're going to play another guessing game.
1270
01:00:18,370 --> 01:00:18,470
Okay.
1271
01:00:18,530 --> 01:00:19,810
Where do you think we're going to land?
1272
01:00:19,970 --> 01:00:25,970
It took us 21 weeks to get to $370 and 8 cents.
1273
01:00:26,150 --> 01:00:27,330
Where do you think we are?
1274
01:00:27,710 --> 01:00:30,390
So we did the, we did the backpack.
1275
01:00:30,790 --> 01:00:31,670
The backpack.
1276
01:00:31,790 --> 01:00:32,990
I'm going to round it off to 200.
1277
01:00:33,190 --> 01:00:33,510
Okay.
1278
01:00:33,770 --> 01:00:36,850
So that's, so we're already at 570.
1279
01:00:37,030 --> 01:00:37,310
Okay.
1280
01:00:37,490 --> 01:00:40,430
You got the baby room kind of going.
1281
01:00:41,290 --> 01:00:42,150
Did you buy paint?
1282
01:00:42,290 --> 01:00:42,870
You said no.
1283
01:00:42,970 --> 01:00:43,230
No.
1284
01:00:43,310 --> 01:00:43,490
Okay.
1285
01:00:43,490 --> 01:00:49,050
So the balloon things that was probably ordered Amazon-ish probably.
1286
01:00:49,390 --> 01:00:55,510
I will, I will say this gives away a little Etsy is where the light fixtures are coming from.
1287
01:00:55,630 --> 01:00:55,950
Okay.
1288
01:00:56,030 --> 01:01:00,870
I'm going to say some odds and ends 780.
1289
01:01:01,750 --> 01:01:03,630
780 would be a good guess.
1290
01:01:04,390 --> 01:01:09,830
The grand total is $1,077 and 98 cents.
1291
01:01:10,070 --> 01:01:11,210
I missed a big purchase.
1292
01:01:11,210 --> 01:01:18,810
So the Etsy purchase, the light fixtures, they're very nice, but they're like, they make them custom, I think.
1293
01:01:18,930 --> 01:01:21,610
So that was like almost 500 bucks just for the light fixtures.
1294
01:01:22,690 --> 01:01:26,250
So now the totals now, Amazon used to be the leader.
1295
01:01:26,810 --> 01:01:28,630
Etsy has leapfrogged to the top of the list.
1296
01:01:28,910 --> 01:01:30,550
So Etsy's at 494.
1297
01:01:30,790 --> 01:01:32,270
Amazon's about 240.
1298
01:01:33,310 --> 01:01:36,490
Lululemon with tax comes up to 218 or 213.
1299
01:01:36,810 --> 01:01:39,190
Target is still hanging in there at 121.
1300
01:01:39,750 --> 01:01:40,650
So, yep.
1301
01:01:40,750 --> 01:01:48,190
So we have crossed the first thousand in 23 weeks.
1302
01:01:48,630 --> 01:01:49,070
Okay.
1303
01:01:49,890 --> 01:01:53,090
Like at this point, we're still looking at cribs.
1304
01:01:53,950 --> 01:01:54,790
None of that stuff.
1305
01:01:55,970 --> 01:02:00,690
Lots of other people I've talked to would like the bassinets and the crazy stuff.
1306
01:02:00,850 --> 01:02:02,450
Say rent, rent, rent, rent.
1307
01:02:02,570 --> 01:02:06,870
If you don't think you're going to have, if you don't, if you're not going to have three more kids, It's a great idea.
1308
01:02:06,870 --> 01:02:10,330
Then you rent instead and you get the, you know, you do it that way.
1309
01:02:10,430 --> 01:02:10,650
That's a perfect.
1310
01:02:10,830 --> 01:02:11,110
Yeah.
1311
01:02:11,610 --> 01:02:11,970
Yeah.
1312
01:02:11,990 --> 01:02:13,270
Cause you're going to have to get rid of them.
1313
01:02:13,390 --> 01:02:14,190
I'd rather do that.
1314
01:02:14,210 --> 01:02:20,030
Cause the other, the other solution is, as we're doing all this research, there's all these things that are multiple use.
1315
01:02:20,030 --> 01:02:24,110
Like it's a bassinet and then it's a changing car and then it's a, yeah.
1316
01:02:24,530 --> 01:02:28,110
And then it's a sled and I don't want to do those.
1317
01:02:28,130 --> 01:02:29,530
Cause they're never as good.
1318
01:02:30,690 --> 01:02:31,050
Maybe.
1319
01:02:31,650 --> 01:02:33,830
So I don't know where, where do you rent them from?
1320
01:02:33,950 --> 01:02:35,610
But I'm sure we can find out.
1321
01:02:35,610 --> 01:02:39,150
I'm Kelly probably already has a list.
1322
01:02:39,330 --> 01:02:39,470
Yeah.
1323
01:02:39,670 --> 01:02:40,650
But yeah.
1324
01:02:40,730 --> 01:02:43,130
So that, uh, so what, what's it?
1325
01:02:43,210 --> 01:02:47,410
1000, $1,077.98. Okay.
1326
01:02:47,410 --> 01:02:51,070
So that is, that is our latest update to check please.
1327
01:02:51,550 --> 01:02:57,490
But that is pretty much everything for this week for episode six, six.
1328
01:02:57,610 --> 01:02:58,630
Episode six.
1329
01:02:58,770 --> 01:02:59,110
Yeah.
1330
01:02:59,130 --> 01:03:01,650
So thank you very much for all of your support.
1331
01:03:01,670 --> 01:03:02,750

1335
01:03:20,670 --> 01:03:22,030
