1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,860
This is one thing that I it took me a while to get over with my lovely wife. She puts ketchup on hot dogs

2
00:00:08,380 --> 00:00:15,360
This is if I offend anyone I'm sorry, but I never did that is not okay never did that until

3
00:00:16,340 --> 00:00:23,560
My kids for some reason did that somewhere down the line and now you do it. I don't know. Okay, I rather not

4
00:00:24,480 --> 00:00:25,840
I like the podcast

5
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:30,520
No, I'm a good mustard mustard on a hot dog ketchup on a burger

6
00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:36,500
Yeah, that's the way it works, but it has been it has been on my hot dog. So she she likes that

7
00:00:37,100 --> 00:00:41,480
So she's putting ketchup on the on the white hot. She she gives a

8
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:46,520
hunk to baby Josie and baby Josie's like mmm spits it out. Yeah, and

9
00:00:47,660 --> 00:00:50,960
But she spits it out clean, right? So she's taking the she likes ketchup

10
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:53,440
And I'm like, she's like, oh

11
00:00:53,980 --> 00:01:00,140
It must she just doesn't like the whites. I'm like, no, that's not it. I'm like you put ketchup on it

12
00:01:00,140 --> 00:01:04,560
She's like, well, what do you mean? I'm like, I take I tear off a piece of the hot dog with no ketchup

13
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,920
I put I pop it in baby Josie's mouth and she goes

14
00:01:11,980 --> 00:01:13,920
Proceeds to eat the rest of the hot dog

15
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:28,020

19
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:47,660
Welcome back again to season 2 episode 3. We had so much to cover. We couldn't get to everything last week

20
00:01:47,660 --> 00:01:51,440
So we're back to finish up the job and get you all caught up

21
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:56,140
so thanks for sticking with us and coming back for the rest of

22
00:01:56,140 --> 00:01:57,320
episode 3

23
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:03,600
So now this is one we have not done in a while the last time was March 5th

24
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:07,539
So the last time we did this was on baby Josie's first birthday. That's right

25
00:02:07,539 --> 00:02:10,720
So that's April May June a little more than three months

26
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:11,800
for

27
00:02:12,580 --> 00:02:14,060
the diaper diet

28
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:21,620
This is this is gonna be big okay, so if you recall because we do this so infrequently I

29
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,800
Wanted to loop when we found out that Kelly was pregnant. I wanted to lose weight

30
00:02:27,420 --> 00:02:31,600
and so we set up this contest where I would try to lose weight as

31
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:39,200
Kelly gained weight and then continue to lose weight as she lost the baby weight so she gets points for

32
00:02:40,060 --> 00:02:48,100
Every pound she gained and every pound she has since lost. Okay. I only get points for losing weight

33
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:49,320
so

34
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:54,180
At the last time we did this. She was ahead by I

35
00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,180
Think yeah, almost 20 pounds. So the gap was

36
00:02:58,180 --> 00:03:00,260
19.8

37
00:03:00,940 --> 00:03:04,200
So so she had gained and lost

38
00:03:04,860 --> 00:03:12,610
19.8 pounds more than I had been able to lose in the same amount of time. Okay, so now but it's been three months and

39
00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:17,220
What do you think? Where do you think? Well, yeah, I asked I told you today

40
00:03:17,220 --> 00:03:22,920
I thought you looked up thinner and I seen her a couple weeks ago and she looked almost normal again

41
00:03:23,640 --> 00:03:29,360
I'm gonna say you were at 19.8 difference, right? She was 19.8 pounds ahead ahead

42
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:36,520
I think and so if you lost more the numbers would be yes, it's gonna be I would close the gap

43
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:42,680
Yes, it'd be like like 17. Yes, exactly. Okay, I think you lost. Okay, and then but she's losing weight, too

44
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:49,780
I'm gonna say you I think you you're getting closer. You're closing the gap. I'm gonna say

45
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:52,880
I'm gonna say

46
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:54,080
89

47
00:03:54,820 --> 00:03:57,780
89 18.9 the new gap is

48
00:03:58,540 --> 00:04:01,620
13 oh my god or 13 for so

49
00:04:02,140 --> 00:04:08,940
Since in the last three months Kelly has lost two pounds. Okay over the last three months. I have lost

50
00:04:08,940 --> 00:04:10,600
8.4

51
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,000
So I've had a good three months. Yeah, so

52
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:19,700
Since the beginning of the pregnancy. So from when we started when I said we were gonna start this I

53
00:04:20,740 --> 00:04:25,540
Am down just over thirty point five thirty point six pounds

54
00:04:25,540 --> 00:04:29,020
So I am now I'm now the lowest I've been

55
00:04:29,020 --> 00:04:37,100
Since you know, well since we found out she was pregnant look you did look. Yeah, it's been it's been a high protein has helped

56
00:04:37,100 --> 00:04:37,720
Oh, yeah

57
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:44,280
But yeah, I love it. I love it. I don't mind it at all the thing that is

58
00:04:45,740 --> 00:04:52,840
The other side of it which we'll talk about later is some of the other side effects of having a being an older older dad

59
00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:58,880
Just some of the like I have been working out but I haven't in the last couple weeks because of some other stuff

60
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,240
So but there is so with the diaper

61
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:08,020
You really the close of the gap so I still but I still got to make up 13 more pounds, which means

62
00:05:08,820 --> 00:05:15,140
You know that and that's just if she stays at the weight. She's I was gonna say how much more does she have though?

63
00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:19,820
I mean, can she she's she's still she's still there struggling. Okay, I think

64
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,560
She's at that point now though because we talked a little bit and the last episode

65
00:05:25,660 --> 00:05:27,920
about the kind of the challenges with

66
00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,800
Getting enough rest

67
00:05:30,380 --> 00:05:36,840
But would now with the baby sleeping through the night much more often. We'll talk about that now

68
00:05:37,380 --> 00:05:39,700
She's getting more rest and that's gonna allow

69
00:05:40,260 --> 00:05:46,440
Yeah, she's gonna I think she's gonna all of a sudden has her work changed like because she's she went from one way to work

70
00:05:47,140 --> 00:05:52,080
No, because when she worked when she worked in in the office she was sitting at a desk

71
00:05:53,360 --> 00:06:00,720
Yeah, so she and and she's she's kind of I didn't glued to that screen all day long which isn't which isn't ideal no

72
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,820
But yeah, so there we are with the diaper

73
00:06:03,820 --> 00:06:09,820
Close the gap. I'm gonna keep I'm gonna keep pushing. I would love to this is I'm at the weight now

74
00:06:10,300 --> 00:06:14,800
That is like a wall at least for the last 15 years

75
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:22,340
It's very hard for me to get under that it's not weird on you get that number because I struggle with I'll get to like

76
00:06:24,460 --> 00:06:25,500
165 and

77
00:06:26,180 --> 00:06:31,480
It'll just bounce right back to 169 and it's like I can't right can't get that

78
00:06:32,100 --> 00:06:38,140
163 and I know that sounds horribly. I mean one. I mean, I'm also five foot six

79
00:06:38,700 --> 00:06:44,100
You know, so I should be probably at one comfortably 160 is nice

80
00:06:44,840 --> 00:06:45,400
165 so

81
00:06:47,820 --> 00:06:51,100
The only way I ever will get the 165 is with chemotherapy

82
00:06:55,620 --> 00:06:56,400
165 was like

83
00:06:57,180 --> 00:07:02,240
Eighth grade. I remember I remember when I was we were leech beer and I was going to Italy that year

84
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:05,180
And I was I was working out and I didn't want to go to Italy

85
00:07:05,860 --> 00:07:09,600
Because I knew I was probably gonna get a little bit away because I want to eat all the food and all this stuff

86
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,940
And I remember at that moment. I weighed myself

87
00:07:12,940 --> 00:07:19,400
I was working out and I started running again. I think I was at 134. I was 25 years old, bro

88
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,640
That's nice 29 waist

89
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:26,440
29 waist. Yeah. No for me. That would have been

90
00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,380
185 that's tight and and I would have been like a

91
00:07:31,380 --> 00:07:37,100
34 is that's the smallest I would ever I would ever be is that's when I died. Yeah

92
00:07:37,100 --> 00:07:39,440
That's about 34. I think

93
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:40,500
You turn it on

94
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:43,760
That's what I work hard

95
00:07:45,020 --> 00:07:48,260
But you're talking like having a party. Yeah, you're taller guys. Yeah

96
00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:54,340
So yeah, so that was it. So there is our diaper diet. Don't miss any of the fun

97
00:07:54,340 --> 00:07:59,840
Make sure you subscribe to this podcast and give us a five-star review wherever you listen

Don't make my wife be surprised

99
00:08:06,700 --> 00:08:08,700
Surprised the reaction I

100
00:08:08,700 --> 00:08:16,240
Feel that way like yeah, I'm not asking for I'm not asking for a lot. I just just don't just don't be mean. Yeah

101
00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,320
I'm glad it wasn't

102
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:25,720
Uncomfortable for not everybody. No, it was you know, Kelly has to work, you know deal with it. Yeah. Yeah

103
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:31,159
Yeah, no, it was it was it was pleasant good and it was and it was interesting too and this kind of kicked off some

104
00:08:31,159 --> 00:08:31,480
of the

105
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,960
Other stuff with pictures that we'll talk about later

106
00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:39,020
one of her relatives had a picture an old picture of

107
00:08:40,020 --> 00:08:46,840
Kelly's mom as a baby and there's a little resemblance. Oh, you saw that too a little bit also

108
00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:48,820
Made me a little

109
00:08:50,660 --> 00:08:51,220
Comfortable

110
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:54,080
Okay

111
00:08:55,000 --> 00:09:00,600
But it was nice it was a nice day we had a good time came so then the next day

112
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:04,040
We ended up out at the boat. Uh-huh spent time

113
00:09:05,020 --> 00:09:08,120
The boat has all this stuff and you got to figure out where everything goes

114
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:11,220
You got to get your stuff loaded on and all that so we spent

115
00:09:11,220 --> 00:09:17,320
We spent a nice afternoon because we didn't go out. We're just at the marina getting things set up

116
00:09:18,340 --> 00:09:24,760
Baby took took to right away took to the cabin. She had a nice naps very comfortable on the boat

117
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,340
There's kind of discreet spaces that she

118
00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:33,500
Shade and all that yeah, so she it was very it was very nice. You're happy with it

119
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:39,960
Yes, so far. It's been yeah, it's been I've kind of learned to figure. Yeah, we gotta get I know you invited me

120
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,280
It's we're summer's crazy. We're always so much everybody's

121
00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:51,000
But yeah, so we had a nice day there got things a little bit more set up and the good news is so we talked

122
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:56,500
About I think at the last time we recorded she had had two nights of sleeping through the night. Yes. Yes. Yes

123
00:09:56,500 --> 00:09:58,380
That's what we let up since then

124
00:09:59,150 --> 00:10:00,100
100%

125
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:01,740
until

126
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:03,700
last night

127
00:10:03,700 --> 00:10:05,180
Really? Yes

128
00:10:06,060 --> 00:10:07,920
Give me something to talk about

129
00:10:08,500 --> 00:10:10,440
Wake up in the middle of a podcast call

130
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,900
No, you know what and and I think Kelly came to the conclusion this morning

131
00:10:15,900 --> 00:10:21,680
It was an unforced error because she is still with her teething

132
00:10:21,680 --> 00:10:27,860
And we have been giving her a little bit of the brand children's Tylenol, okay same thing

133
00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:32,660
At bedtime, okay to help and we she forgot to do that

134
00:10:32,660 --> 00:10:37,740
Ah, we put her to bed because you could tell when she woke up. It wasn't like she woke up and wanted attention

135
00:10:37,740 --> 00:10:43,420
She woke up with like the shrub the streaky cries that are typically and you know, what kind of cries now

136
00:10:43,420 --> 00:10:48,920
You know what your daughter son? I think yeah when I heard it. I'm like, yeah, it's a different. Yeah, it's a different thing

137
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,100
Yeah, it's made such a difference. I think

138
00:10:51,680 --> 00:10:53,500
For the first week or so

139
00:10:54,620 --> 00:10:56,360
Kelly was almost worse

140
00:10:56,360 --> 00:11:02,020
Getting more sleep because her body was so used to running on a dry

141
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:08,180
Getting it up. So she was super dopey for for all about a week

142
00:11:08,180 --> 00:11:11,540
And now I think she's really back to her her usual

143
00:11:11,540 --> 00:11:16,380
Self, you know what the great thing is and you guys are gonna experience it. Okay

144
00:11:17,100 --> 00:11:23,160
It's gonna be that moment where oh my god, my my life is back to normal as whatever

145
00:11:23,160 --> 00:11:27,640
No, yes the sleeping the things that you right now you think I will never

146
00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:33,000
Right be normal again. I will never and that's coming and you're gonna love it

147
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:39,620
You're gonna feel it and you're gonna remember it and it's eventually it's just gonna be a normal thing

148
00:11:39,620 --> 00:11:40,480
Yeah, I'll go to bed

149
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:45,280
I wonder about that stuff as funny. I was taught one of my John Taylor who

150
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:49,600
Johnny not from Duran Duran. He was a guest on the podcast many moons ago

151
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:57,880
He's asking me today, are you if I was gonna get the news there's gonna be a new Grand Theft Auto I guess

152
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:03,600
I guess coming out people are talking about and my answer to him was I haven't turned again. I have a ps5

153
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:03,960
I have

154
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:10,460
I have not turned one of those on since the day the baby was born

155
00:12:11,100 --> 00:12:17,500
I haven't played I used to play video games. Occasionally. I didn't spend a lot of time, but no

156
00:12:17,500 --> 00:12:21,940
No, there's none of that speaking about that. I just went away this weekend

157
00:12:21,940 --> 00:12:27,060
Okay, and the family that we met with a couple that we met on our honeymoon

158
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,460
Okay, they got married the same day same hour same day and same everything

159
00:12:32,460 --> 00:12:39,100
They happen to sit at our table at the on your honeymoon cruise and we've been friends for 28 years

160
00:12:39,100 --> 00:12:43,080
right, so we went bit the youngest graduate from college and

161
00:12:44,580 --> 00:12:50,400
Bob shout-out to Bob and Holly he goes tonight. We're gonna play Grand Theft Auto. I've never played it

162
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,040
Okay, he has never played it. No, right and

163
00:12:54,140 --> 00:12:56,960
Holic, so I I was in the room

164
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:01,200
I laid down for a second because we had a pool time whatever and I heard people laughing

165
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:05,700
So I walked in there and I saw Trina playing Grand Theft Auto

166
00:13:05,700 --> 00:13:10,480
Which we don't play games up and the funniest thing is to watch your wife

167
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:15,860
Get out of a car and beat a prostitute up is hilarious

168
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:18,980
I'm like, what are you doing?

169
00:13:19,420 --> 00:13:23,300
Stomping out a cop or what? That's what the game is about, right?

170
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:27,820
They're like, oh, yeah, I stole the helicopter and we went shopping

171
00:13:29,780 --> 00:13:35,060
So that that's fun that you bring that up, yeah, yeah, he was wondering if I was gonna be getting the latest version

172
00:13:35,060 --> 00:13:41,200
I've never played that game. Mostly I would play like racing games. Yeah, I like that stuff. But yeah, there's none of that

173
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:48,820
There's none of that happening. But anyway, so she's doing much better with the sleeping. That's been very nice. She's really

174
00:13:49,620 --> 00:13:56,540
She had multiple of those walkers like we had one you got you guys got her one for her birthday

175
00:13:56,540 --> 00:14:03,400
I think her first birthday. She goes cruising around that thing. She's really cooking dangerous on that

176
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:09,040
What's dinner is now? She's gotten more confident. She's at it. So the other day she

177
00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:13,600
Kelly was to clean up a little bit after dinner

178
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:16,640
She's like keep an eye on her and as soon as she says I'm like, yeah

179
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:21,800
I got her and she's like and then she turns around looks at me smiles and then just flips over backwards

180
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:26,560
The thing lands on her. Oh my god lands on it. She hit she bonked her head when she fell

181
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:32,040
Oh my lord, she's standing. She's starting to balance but then she loses her balance and that thing doesn't weigh anything

182
00:14:32,820 --> 00:14:37,740
So it just came over but yeah, so she's had a lot more little but like that first time on the boat

183
00:14:38,340 --> 00:14:44,520
She's on the on the like in the v-berth and then all of a sudden bonk and there's she hit her head

184
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:49,280
So she's gotten she's gotten a couple of little box. Yeah, and it's gonna be okay

185
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:55,240
Is she can you tell a difference between how she was before now that she's sleeping the whole night through it?

186
00:14:55,300 --> 00:14:57,140
She have more word, baby. She

187
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:01,800
Do you see a difference when she slept off with a knife? I think yeah

188
00:15:02,040 --> 00:15:06,740
I think she took a little bit of an adjustment too, but we're also going through that time of where

189
00:15:07,300 --> 00:15:08,960
Now that she's sleeping through the night

190
00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:12,460
We're also trying to get her to just one nap instead of two

191
00:15:12,460 --> 00:15:18,340
So there's a little bit of confusion with that too, but I think definitely in the morning

192
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:25,060
When she wakes up and she has had a full night's sleep. She's just she's always happy smiley little girl

193
00:15:25,060 --> 00:15:29,480
But she's really she's just like ready to take the day. Yeah, she's super happy

194
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:33,380
We decide I decided it would be a good time summertime now

195
00:15:33,380 --> 00:15:38,660
We're getting outside and she loves like the time the most common

196
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:44,840
Thing that makes her cry isn't is when she when we have to go inside

197
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:49,360
She loves being outside. She wants to be outside

198
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:52,600
Doing stuff. So I'm like we need a swing. We gotta get a swing

199
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:57,060
You gotta get that backyard swing. So I ordered a swing that we could put up

200
00:15:57,060 --> 00:16:01,780
We have a very nice locust tree that has a perfect branch. Oh right in the backyard

201
00:16:01,780 --> 00:16:03,100
I'm like, I'm gonna get a tree swing

202
00:16:03,100 --> 00:16:08,420
So we put that out there and she is she is we were the first time we put her in it

203
00:16:08,420 --> 00:16:11,300
It was kind of late in the day almost every night after dinner

204
00:16:11,300 --> 00:16:14,740
We take a walk around and she's by getting tired by then

205
00:16:14,740 --> 00:16:17,680
We tried her out the first time and she didn't seem like she was too excited

206
00:16:18,060 --> 00:16:22,880
So now we're getting her there a little earlier taking her out during the day and she's starting to really love it

207
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,240
She particularly likes because it's like two chains up to the branch

208
00:16:26,780 --> 00:16:29,640
Doing the winder up winder up and then let her on

209
00:16:31,620 --> 00:16:32,420
Loves that

210
00:16:32,980 --> 00:16:36,580
It's so far so much fun, but it's like one of those. It's like one of the ones that

211
00:16:37,260 --> 00:16:38,920
It's like a green bucket with

212
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:45,220
So she's pretty secure in there. I want to say we had that. I don't know why

213
00:16:45,220 --> 00:16:48,220
Trina again somebody we had that the bucket thing

214
00:16:48,220 --> 00:16:53,000
It looks like the ones you see it every every park and it has made me think about

215
00:16:53,000 --> 00:17:00,500
There is one we have one apple tree and our orchard that has kind of a hollow in it and a couple branches that were

216
00:17:00,500 --> 00:17:02,480
low, but I could make a

217
00:17:03,079 --> 00:17:03,760
tree house

218
00:17:04,300 --> 00:17:09,859
In that tree and I've been every time we every night we go for a walk and every night. I sit there and go

219
00:17:09,859 --> 00:17:13,460
It's all I wanted every kid want. I mean I started

220
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:14,740
everybody

221
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:19,240
Everybody had it the Brady Bunch had a yeah at a tree house every show

222
00:17:20,020 --> 00:17:23,599
Didn't leave it the beaver have a tree house everybody had a tree house

223
00:17:23,599 --> 00:17:28,560
That's all I want as a kid have my own little tree house. My father was a carpet

224
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:28,820
I mean

225
00:17:30,860 --> 00:17:35,060
Casket and he was a casket maker make it look like anything. Just give me a tree house

226
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,760
He's going up there at night it was a factory second, yeah

227
00:17:44,740 --> 00:17:45,940
but nothing yet, so

228
00:17:46,620 --> 00:17:47,460
You gotta

229
00:17:47,460 --> 00:17:52,820
That would be a fun project. I would like that. I would like you got to make it enough where we can hang out

230
00:17:57,100 --> 00:18:02,260
Wish I had a tree that would be perfect for a big like a big old or something

231
00:18:02,260 --> 00:18:08,520
But the apple tree may do we'll see but she likes she likes the trees the tree swing

232
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:10,220
That's been a lot of fun

233
00:18:10,700 --> 00:18:13,840
Then we got actually got out on the boat

234
00:18:15,700 --> 00:18:16,700
Finally and

235
00:18:16,700 --> 00:18:21,860
She has taken to it very very nicely we went out. She likes the whole boat experience

236
00:18:21,860 --> 00:18:25,460
Yeah, and I hear a butt coming. Oh, no

237
00:18:25,460 --> 00:18:31,240
Well, there is a little okay, so there's this thing so there is a again the boat is a ranger tug

238
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:35,030
and there is a online forum that is like a

239
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,980
Club for owners of ranger tags, and it's called pug nuts

240
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:40,980
and

241
00:18:40,980 --> 00:18:45,840
There so I'm always looking at it because people like that might do modifications or have questions and

242
00:18:46,660 --> 00:18:48,480
This guy had posted a picture

243
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:53,560
There's a there's the helm seat, and then there's a seat on the port side next to it

244
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:57,280
That's just like a one-person seat, but he had the picture

245
00:18:57,900 --> 00:19:02,360
He was talking about something else he did but everybody who saw the picture asked about this one

246
00:19:02,360 --> 00:19:06,200
He had a booster seat that fit on that seat perfectly

247
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,400
And he said he had put that there for his grandchild so

248
00:19:09,860 --> 00:19:15,020
He listed where he got it, so I've ordered one because it's perfect because when we're docking or something

249
00:19:15,020 --> 00:19:20,520
We can put her in there, and she's in and she can't escape and then

250
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:24,500
Kelly can be free to step off the boat while I'm docking

251
00:19:24,500 --> 00:19:30,580
So she's not a big fan of be it so she'll stay in it for a while, but if we take too long

252
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,200
Yeah, she doesn't want to be in there. Well. That's cool. It is definitely yes

253
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:40,000
So she she likes that now she has her little drawer in the cabin with full of all of her toys

254
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:46,200
And we did get I think at some point or another. I'll bring it home from the boat so we can do a

255
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:50,920
So we can do a crash test daddy. Uh-huh there is a company called Sea Rock

256
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,520
This is awesome. It was my nickname

257
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:55,720
Searock

258
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:57,760
Searock is

259
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:01,780
They make and you can get them customized which we did

260
00:20:02,700 --> 00:20:04,160
boat swings for

261
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:05,940
toddlers so it's like

262
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:10,760
So you can literally hang it from the from the canopy in the back of the boat

263
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,540
It's white and it's in hers has her name baby Josie

264
00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:20,560
Embroidered on it and and we got her one of those and she likes that too. Oh my god

265
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,440
When we're anchored up we can't do well underway

266
00:20:24,820 --> 00:20:28,900
But what will anchor up somewhere if we're tied up somewhere we can put her in there

267
00:20:28,900 --> 00:20:31,140
And she's right there kind of where we are

268
00:20:31,140 --> 00:20:33,940
It's awesome awesome the Sea Rock is cool

269
00:20:33,940 --> 00:20:40,500
and she just loves the water which led us to Costco and they have these kiddie pools and

270
00:20:41,660 --> 00:20:46,520
I thought well we should you know we should get our kid, but she loves being she loves the water. She's

271
00:20:48,060 --> 00:20:51,340
It's so of course now. There's there's a couple choices at Costco

272
00:20:52,220 --> 00:20:58,400
Myself I leaned immediately in the direction of the one that has a 12 foot tall inflatable dragon

273
00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:05,480
And a slide and all that but my lovely wife as she often does is

274
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:11,020
Express the voice of reason said see where it says it's for three ages three and up

275
00:21:11,020 --> 00:21:17,100
Maybe not this year, but so we got her a little inflatable. Did you then tell Kelly this is for me?

276
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,860
Like my tree, I mean her tree house yes the tree house is awesome

277
00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:28,240
But so we got that we filled it up, and she loves it of course

278
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,500
Of course baby of course so does so does Rumpel Rumpel gets

279
00:21:33,120 --> 00:21:34,280
Runs around in there

280
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:38,140
You know they don't mind it at all Watson does not like the water

281
00:21:38,140 --> 00:21:40,720
So he doesn't get in but Rumpel will get in there

282
00:21:41,360 --> 00:21:47,620
But yeah, so she and she loves the again only time she complains is that you're taking her out of the

283
00:21:47,620 --> 00:21:54,760
Fun you're doing yeah boats and swings and pools, then you want to take her inside to sleep. Yeah, that's right

284
00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:58,920
It is boring inside right. That's a baby. Come on. I already want to do that

285
00:22:00,660 --> 00:22:07,320
It's true, so yeah, so she's loving that she's definitely and gonna enjoy summer you can tell she is an outdoor

286
00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:12,860
She's an outdoor baby outdoor kid got out one Father's Day was very nice

287
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:17,380
We did thank you we did two things we got a very nice card from you and Trina

288
00:22:17,380 --> 00:22:23,240
Thank you. We decided instead of doing some on Father's Day. We were gonna go out on the boat so the night before

289
00:22:23,980 --> 00:22:29,360
We took a drive out to skinny Atlas and drove around have you ever heard of?

290
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:34,240
Hidden fish I have not hidden fish is a very nice

291
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:41,000
It's owned. It's a partnership between a guy. I know Jeff Noss and Adam Weitzman

292
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:45,580
You know who that is they don't they own like almost every restaurant skinny Alice

293
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:52,980
But the hidden fish is a little bit off the main drag there in the village, but it's a sushi place

294
00:22:52,980 --> 00:22:54,520
and it is

295
00:22:55,740 --> 00:23:00,720
Fantastic we had we had a nice couple little appetizers

296
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,300
And then I I had I had three rolls

297
00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:09,720
Kelly had the biggest

298
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,720
Serving of salmon, I've ever seen really like a broiled salmon

299
00:23:15,460 --> 00:23:17,000
It was gigantic

300
00:23:18,740 --> 00:23:22,900
And it looked it was delicious I tried a little bit the sushi rolls I had a volcano roll

301
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,400
Philly and California roll and

302
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:35,340
The volcano was the best walking. I've ever had now. What's if I can't what's crap? What's in there? It's crabbing and

303
00:23:37,060 --> 00:23:40,520
An avocado and then but then it has this like creamy

304
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:46,620
Topping that they put before I was fantastic. The only downside is chopsticks

305
00:23:50,500 --> 00:23:53,920
Because the volcano rose messy, so you had a guy I kind of had to use

306
00:23:54,580 --> 00:23:58,960
He kind of had to use or you look like you look like a sandwich surprised you haven't mastered that

307
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,200
No, because I always like I never

308
00:24:03,540 --> 00:24:10,120
Too hard, but yeah, so we went to dinner and it was really really good. I was never been there hidden fish

309
00:24:10,120 --> 00:24:17,340
Wonderful. It was we went we went kind of early, but the baby had a great time. She was in a great mood did really

310
00:24:17,340 --> 00:24:17,520
well

311
00:24:18,740 --> 00:24:23,520
She had some of the salmon. She had some of the appetizers because we had like a

312
00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:24,340
wagyu

313
00:24:25,300 --> 00:24:32,480
Wagyu beef appetizer and then we had what is it when they fry the stuff like a tempura vegetable tempura

314
00:24:32,480 --> 00:24:37,960
Which was great like a half a pepper fry. It was really good a very nice Father's Day meal

315
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:39,860
I was happy and then the next day we went out

316
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,770
and what we typically do we were out on the boat we anchor up I

317
00:24:44,420 --> 00:24:49,520
Cook up some hot dogs, and I thought this was fun kind of funny because there is that

318
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,620
There's the pictures and figuring out. Who does she look like?

319
00:24:53,300 --> 00:24:55,400
what you know who she favors and

320
00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,640
There is especially with the food stuff a lot of times. I think

321
00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,520
Kelly might

322
00:25:02,740 --> 00:25:09,500
Nudge the baby in the direction of liking what she likes and not liking what she doesn't like

323
00:25:10,740 --> 00:25:12,660
and so we're having hot dogs and

324
00:25:13,660 --> 00:25:14,100
now

325
00:25:14,860 --> 00:25:15,900
being from Buffalo

326
00:25:17,120 --> 00:25:18,000
Kelly is

327
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:24,960
Salons she has to have salons hot dogs, so she likes reds. Yeah, they don't want to mess with anybody else's hot dog I

328
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:30,840
Like Hoffman's hot dogs, and I like Connie's I like the whites so I like white hot

329
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:36,000
Kelly does not like them now this time. We were out on the boat. We only had whites

330
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,620
We didn't have rats, so I cook them up on the grill

331
00:25:38,620 --> 00:25:46,160
Well no, but we're eating and and I hear and she's she's got baby Josie on her side of the little dinette

332
00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:50,420
Uh-huh, and she's putting now. She does another thing, and I don't know how you feel about this

333
00:25:50,420 --> 00:25:57,160
But this is one thing that it took me a while to get over with my lovely wife. She puts ketchup on hot dogs

334
00:25:59,720 --> 00:26:06,640
This is if I offend anyone, I'm sorry, but I never did that is not okay. I never did that until

335
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:14,880
My kids for some reason did that somewhere down the line and now you do it. I know okay. I'd rather not

336
00:26:17,860 --> 00:26:21,800
I'm a good mustard mustard on a hot dog ketchup on a burger

337
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:27,780
That's the way it works, but it has been it has been on my hot dog so she she likes that

338
00:26:28,360 --> 00:26:33,020
So she's putting ketchup on the on the white hot she she gives up

339
00:26:33,020 --> 00:26:38,740
To baby Josie and baby Josie's like mmm spits it out. Yeah, and

340
00:26:38,740 --> 00:26:42,260
But she spits it out clean right so she's taking like she likes ketchup

341
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:44,720
She's like oh

342
00:26:45,300 --> 00:26:51,420
She must she just doesn't like the whites. I'm like no. That's not it. I'm like you put ketchup on it

343
00:26:51,420 --> 00:26:55,860
She's like well. What do you mean? I'm like I take I tear off a piece of the hot dog with no ketchup

344
00:26:55,860 --> 00:26:58,180
I put I pop it in

345
00:26:58,180 --> 00:27:00,200
Baby Josie's mouth and she goes

346
00:27:00,820 --> 00:27:01,220
mmm

347
00:27:03,180 --> 00:27:05,180
Proceeds to eat the rest of the hot dog

348
00:27:05,860 --> 00:27:10,600
She doesn't like ketchup on the hot dog. She just ate the ketchup instead of the hot dog

349
00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:16,360
Like so I thought Trina is a huge Cooney. I like

350
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:18,280
What's not to like?

351
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:21,480
Come on

352
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:26,480
Hoffman whites yeah, just Coney's or that's my favorite the perfect setup

353
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:32,580
It's a you gotta have the New England fun caught on the top cut on the top you gotta have brown mustard

354
00:27:33,020 --> 00:27:36,000
And sweet relish and maybe a little diced onion

355
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:37,420
It's perfect

356
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:44,220
That was a father's day win in my mind, I'm like she likes my hot dog

357
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:50,780
Now the whites are what are they beat what are they their pork or egg whites to make the

358
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,700
Something I think it's just it's pork is pork is wait. Oh, that's true look it up guys

359
00:27:58,340 --> 00:28:04,160
We'll see so yeah, so that that was kind of fun, and then and also there's also the

360
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:09,200
That's what so there's it got me thinking more of the like who's she gonna be like right?

361
00:28:09,360 --> 00:28:14,740
and then this the ice we started looking at the pictures like we talked about and and

362
00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:19,620
And I think it's funny because you can go back at different times

363
00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,180
there's but we've been looking at pictures, and I'll be

364
00:28:22,780 --> 00:28:26,340
There shall be and you'll have a picture of one of us or one of

365
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:31,480
One of Kelly's siblings or one of my siblings and be like look like it's really

366
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:37,660
But right now she does I think she favors. She's favoring me a little bit

367
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:42,340
You can just you can see a little a little bit in the eyes

368
00:28:43,220 --> 00:28:49,580
And it was fun to see what I thought was funny was there's this picture of me like my father holding me kind of like

369
00:28:49,580 --> 00:28:50,100
I do

370
00:28:50,100 --> 00:28:55,540
With her and I'm looking at my dad again again in my head. I always thought my dad was old

371
00:28:55,540 --> 00:29:03,920
But in this picture my dad is 10 years younger than you than I am now, and I'm and I'm a little older

372
00:29:04,860 --> 00:29:06,740
and I'm thinking to myself I

373
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:08,280
like

374
00:29:09,060 --> 00:29:10,780
though that generation

375
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:16,020
It's really really like they yeah, they had a rough life in a rough

376
00:29:16,020 --> 00:29:19,260
I did a lot of things to take care of before yeah vanity

377
00:29:19,840 --> 00:29:25,260
Like World War two I think a those years aged top age the whole planet

378
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:27,960
about twice as fast as

379
00:29:28,700 --> 00:29:33,820
Yeah, cuz you look at it like you can see it was like yeah, this guy something. He was he was like 40

380
00:29:33,820 --> 00:29:39,120
He's probably 48. Yeah, so he's eight years younger than I am now and and he looks

381
00:29:40,100 --> 00:29:41,580
He looks 10 years older

382
00:29:44,860 --> 00:29:50,600
So but the best generation, but the oldest agree to the greatest generation, and they're all this looking

383
00:29:52,340 --> 00:29:53,480
But it's interesting

384
00:29:54,940 --> 00:29:59,580
Fashion's different haircuts, and yeah, and the clothes you know I guess there's all those

385
00:29:59,580 --> 00:30:02,760
Have you ever seen like there's these videos that they do especially now with AI?

386
00:30:03,060 --> 00:30:05,600
It'll be like the golden girls if they were today

387
00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:11,640
Yes, and they'll give them like modern haircuts and modern makeup, and they look you know they look 10 years young

388
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:12,860
They look younger. Yeah, yeah

389
00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,900
So but yeah, so it's interesting the other the other big update with the baby

390
00:30:16,900 --> 00:30:21,860
Which I think is a good sign is all of a sudden there's been an uptick in in

391
00:30:21,860 --> 00:30:27,480
Volume with how much she's eating her appetite. She's eating a lot

392
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:36,500
Discovering new things now. She's yeah. Oh, yeah, no. She's super interested in everything always trying to figure things out

393
00:30:36,500 --> 00:30:41,080
Which is fun and and watching her do that and she's always she really loves

394
00:30:41,660 --> 00:30:42,920
Helping when we were setting up

395
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:48,060
Oh, yeah, we're setting up to record and I had to plug in a couple cables, and I'm like hold the cable

396
00:30:48,660 --> 00:30:55,800
And I'll do stuff, okay, oh, yeah, she came down with me, and then I'm like I need the cable she gives me the cable

397
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:03,720
She's always she loves she loves being involved and helping and it's so cool. It's just a little pale my little

398
00:31:04,700 --> 00:31:10,180
It's the best it's the best it. There's nothing yeah, there's nothing like I want I want I went on a trip

399
00:31:10,180 --> 00:31:13,660
I went on a work trip last week, and I went with my son Nicholas

400
00:31:14,180 --> 00:31:18,400
It was so cool, that's good. It was so cool, and I I was on stage and I

401
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:23,280
Referred to him. I like I was talking about my kids. I go. I brought one today. It's nice

402
00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:29,200
Yeah, I said that's I spent because you know whenever you travel for work you travel with a child, but

403
00:31:34,380 --> 00:31:38,280
But yeah, no it was it's nice, and it was Father's Day weekend, so it's kind of cool

404
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:39,340
That's like okay

405
00:31:39,340 --> 00:31:43,240
I get to be on the road do what I like, but then my son's with me

406
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:47,500
He gets to see all the he gets he gets to be treated like all the stories

407
00:31:47,500 --> 00:31:48,980
I said all they took out to the restaurant

408
00:31:50,220 --> 00:31:52,780
All that and feel it and he loved it

409
00:31:52,780 --> 00:31:56,940
So all I know is it's a I've heard already twice from my sister

410
00:31:56,940 --> 00:32:01,860
That she's been to the diner where your son works, and how nice he is he's like. He's so nice. I'm like

411
00:32:03,180 --> 00:32:04,380
Yeah, he's good

412
00:32:05,340 --> 00:32:11,020
Yeah, and it's good to see and it's also good to see Natalia now back to work back to work. We missed him

413
00:32:11,020 --> 00:32:13,760
We have a broken ankle and then you get yeah, so

414
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:18,660
Everything's okay right now. That's good. That's the way you want it

415
00:32:18,660 --> 00:32:22,560
This is where exactly you want parenthood where everything's just like okay

416
00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:27,260
My son called me today, and I'll tell you my oldest you'll have many years of this

417
00:32:27,260 --> 00:32:31,940
But you'll start getting phone calls from your kids, and it's always worried. You're always worried, right?

418
00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:36,820
My oldest is like dad I

419
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:38,720
Go yeah

420
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,780
So I was out today. I'm like oh

421
00:32:43,420 --> 00:32:46,360
Yeah, and I was in I was I was in my car

422
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:50,380
Oh God, and I decided I'm gonna go to the new Tully's to get chicken

423
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:54,880
That's what we're talking about oh my god

424
00:32:54,880 --> 00:33:01,360
Lead with that, please don't you know it's like he it's our God bless. Oh my god dad

425
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:06,200
Are you sitting down? Yeah? Why I got new chicken tenders?

426
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:12,740
I'm gonna get to know it was and he does that all the time and as a parent's like please just call

427
00:33:15,100 --> 00:33:18,260
Okay, yes, it's just like okay, but that's

428
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:23,640
Facing that yeah, so it's always it's there's never a moment

429
00:33:24,900 --> 00:33:30,120
Not worrying about our children. I think it's internet. Yeah right now. There's very little

430
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:36,500
But I do I don't know if we talked about it last time, but like with me playing with

431
00:33:37,700 --> 00:33:44,180
Playing with the baby and give it like tossing around yes. Yeah, it's so funny the

432
00:33:44,180 --> 00:33:45,960
level of tolerance

433
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:47,680
for Kelly

434
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:52,580
Seeing that she can't even oh my god. She can't look at it

435
00:33:52,580 --> 00:33:56,500
And I'm like just put her up there

436
00:33:57,200 --> 00:34:02,400
You know let her sit there, and we'll take her picture. No she could fall like it's totally different. Yeah, we

437
00:34:02,900 --> 00:34:04,900
It's good. It's good that balance

438
00:34:04,900 --> 00:34:10,659
It's a good balance because otherwise she would live in a bubble and it wasn't possible like your neighbor

439
00:34:10,659 --> 00:34:14,000
And I would probably do something that leaves her with a scar

440
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:22,500
So it's good to have the masculine and the feminine that's right at work at the same time

441
00:34:22,580 --> 00:34:27,739
But that is pretty much that is pretty much everything we are caught up

442
00:34:27,739 --> 00:34:33,139
It feels like it took a lot less time this time because we didn't have quite as much as if we did this every week

443
00:34:33,139 --> 00:34:34,679
We're not gonna talk about yeah

444
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:41,560
Yes, that's it she had it we'd go over her entire meal plan

445
00:34:42,020 --> 00:34:47,400
It'd just be one day everything down to the no we don't know we won't have that but but it was nice

446
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:51,560
It's been nice. I'm look. We're looking forward to enjoying the rest of the summer

447
00:34:52,699 --> 00:34:55,460
Yeah, it was way too fast so

448
00:34:55,460 --> 00:34:57,440
Yeah, we'll be coming up on

449
00:34:58,220 --> 00:35:04,380
Next week 4th of July. Yeah, we'll be out from the fireworks. Oh you got to travel. I'm working. That's no good

450
00:35:04,380 --> 00:35:09,680
So all right though, but I'm going somewhere nice. So there you go. Yeah, I'll be right next to the ocean where

451
00:35:10,300 --> 00:35:14,800
Where we've been called back to do Myrtle Beach again, so Myrtle Beach. I've never been there

452
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,880
I I've never the first time I went there was May 2nd

453
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:25,020
2nd 3rd and it was so well. They said could you please come back for the 4th of July weekend wonderful, so

454
00:35:25,020 --> 00:35:29,240
I'll be spending my time there and then off to California. Oh boy

455
00:35:30,860 --> 00:35:37,460
That's exciting yeah be fun. All right well once again. Thank you for sticking with us. This has been

456
00:35:37,460 --> 00:35:39,940
good catching up with everybody and

457
00:35:40,980 --> 00:35:43,760
We will see you again very very soon

458
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:48,940
