Get ready for some laughs and relatable parenting moments in Episode 25 of The Gray Hair & Daycare Podcast!

We also tackle the joys of baby vaccinations, the ever-growing "Check Please" budget, and the crucial topic of raising avid readers (even if it means hiding Harry Potter books from your mom!).

00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,770
She's a huge Harry Potter fan, but Harry Potter was a no-no.
2
00:00:03,850 --> 00:00:07,050
It was not allowed in the house, so they had a hidden set of Harry Potter books.
3
00:00:07,490 --> 00:00:07,590
Really?
4
00:00:07,970 --> 00:00:11,230
That's their version of being bad, which I think is amusing.
5
00:00:11,390 --> 00:00:16,530
That's their version of me hiding my Judas Priest and Black Sabbath albums.
6
00:00:16,910 --> 00:00:18,570
I couldn't have around the house because I looked evil.
7
00:00:18,730 --> 00:00:19,770
That's why I'm always amused.
8
00:00:19,910 --> 00:00:23,050
It's just like, you hid Harry Potter books and my mom found my lockpicks.
9
00:00:23,050 --> 00:00:27,410
I'm like, what am I doing with these?
10
00:00:27,690 --> 00:00:29,050
Why do you have these?
11
00:00:41,610 --> 00:00:44,230
This is the Gray Hair and Daycare Podcast.
12
00:00:44,930 --> 00:00:49,770
With a combined age of 111 years and a combined IQ right in that same range.
13
00:00:50,310 --> 00:00:54,350
Your hosts, Frank Sirio and Carlo Russo.
14
00:00:54,730 --> 00:00:55,870
Here we are.
15
00:00:56,030 --> 00:00:56,790
Here we are.
16
00:00:57,770 --> 00:01:02,730
Welcome back to the Gray Hair and Daycare Podcast episode 25.
17
00:01:03,310 --> 00:01:04,870
That sounds like something.
18
00:01:05,690 --> 00:01:07,630
It sounds more than 24.
19
00:01:07,650 --> 00:01:09,010
It sounds like one more than 24.
20
00:01:09,590 --> 00:01:10,290
It is something.
21
00:01:10,510 --> 00:01:11,550
And a little ways from 30.
22
00:01:11,730 --> 00:01:14,250
A quarter of 100.
23
00:01:14,990 --> 00:01:16,110
Yeah, that's it.
24
00:01:16,930 --> 00:01:17,850
We made it.
25
00:01:18,070 --> 00:01:18,350
We're proud.
26
00:01:18,570 --> 00:01:19,110
Nothing else.
27
00:01:19,210 --> 00:01:20,330
We prove that we can count.
28
00:01:20,650 --> 00:01:21,750
We can count.
29
00:01:21,990 --> 00:01:22,810
Up to 25.
30
00:01:22,810 --> 00:01:23,650
At least up to 25.
31
00:01:23,950 --> 00:01:24,730
Next week or whatever.
32
00:01:25,030 --> 00:01:26,890
I can't promise anything.
33
00:01:27,030 --> 00:01:28,550
It's all going to go cattywampus.
34
00:01:28,670 --> 00:01:29,910
But you know what I love to hear.
35
00:01:30,150 --> 00:01:31,430
Yes, you do.
36
00:01:31,530 --> 00:01:33,350
So please hit us with it.
37
00:01:34,130 --> 00:01:36,690
Well, my name is Frank Sirio.
38
00:01:36,810 --> 00:01:42,790
I am 55 years old and my daughter is 10 weeks old.
39
00:01:43,070 --> 00:01:44,030
10 weeks old.
40
00:01:44,270 --> 00:01:47,330
It has gone by in the blink of an eye.
41
00:01:47,610 --> 00:01:48,130
Yes.
42
00:01:48,130 --> 00:01:50,330
10 weeks is just so so so quick.
43
00:01:50,850 --> 00:01:51,610
We're here.
44
00:01:51,730 --> 00:01:55,910
We're having sold fully fully into parenting an infant.
45
00:01:56,250 --> 00:01:59,070
Yeah, you feel like not you feel like a dad.
46
00:01:59,530 --> 00:02:00,450
You're wearing it.
47
00:02:00,510 --> 00:02:03,770
Well, you're doing you're doing the dad thing.
48
00:02:03,850 --> 00:02:06,830
I ask you every day I see is like, what's going on now?
49
00:02:06,870 --> 00:02:07,530
What's going on now?
50
00:02:08,370 --> 00:02:14,590
You know, and we try to keep it for the podcast, but some stuff, you know, we have to talk and we we talk almost every day.
51
00:02:14,950 --> 00:02:15,810
But 10 weeks.
52
00:02:16,390 --> 00:02:24,430
Is it what you thought 10 weeks if you thought that at all was going to be like, I don't know if I thought it out in that great detail.
53
00:02:24,430 --> 00:02:26,690
When I look at how things are now.
54
00:02:27,590 --> 00:02:30,850
I think that it is.
55
00:02:30,970 --> 00:02:35,290
It's more fun, I think, and simpler.
56
00:02:35,570 --> 00:02:45,290
I feel like we've got our arms around things, but there are still challenges where she just gets out of sorts, right?
57
00:02:45,530 --> 00:02:50,350
Because so you get into a rhythm, but we're not at the point now where she's on a schedule yet.
58
00:02:50,670 --> 00:02:56,670
But just the feeding, sleeping, it's one of the things that it's very easy.
59
00:02:57,330 --> 00:02:58,910
The train is going down the tracks.
60
00:02:59,150 --> 00:03:08,610
But then if it wobbles a little, it very easily veer and if it does veer off, you're you're trying to get it back on for like 36 hours.
61
00:03:09,130 --> 00:03:14,070
It's a day and a half to kind of pull her back into where she normally are.
62
00:03:14,210 --> 00:03:15,490
You think regular is at this point.
63
00:03:15,490 --> 00:03:18,010
Exactly what normal life is.
64
00:03:18,550 --> 00:03:20,330
But yeah, it's like we talked about before.
65
00:03:20,490 --> 00:03:26,370
It's like just when you get used to something, something else happens or appears or becomes the new norm.
66
00:03:26,770 --> 00:03:32,790
And we have some new, we had, we've had some firsts happened since the last episode to talk about.
67
00:03:32,990 --> 00:03:34,350
So that and that stuff, too.
68
00:03:34,610 --> 00:03:35,310
So that's awesome.
69
00:03:35,410 --> 00:03:41,090
It's been a pleasure watching you become this other person that I've never seen you.
70
00:03:41,470 --> 00:03:43,310
You've seen me as a dad for many years.
71
00:03:43,370 --> 00:03:43,630
Yeah.
72
00:03:43,830 --> 00:03:44,090
Right.
73
00:03:44,550 --> 00:03:44,730
Yeah.
74
00:03:44,730 --> 00:03:50,070
I've only known you as either my friend or then a husband.
75
00:03:50,390 --> 00:03:56,210
And it's funny because as you say that, I remember you, you left my life.
76
00:03:56,290 --> 00:03:56,690
Yes.
77
00:03:57,230 --> 00:04:01,210
As when I moved away, I lived away from Syracuse for eight years.
78
00:04:02,230 --> 00:04:04,630
So you, you left me.
79
00:04:04,790 --> 00:04:07,810
I think you maybe just started dating, dating Trina.
80
00:04:08,070 --> 00:04:20,829
And then when we kind of came back together was I was at, I remember where I was standing at the moment you were in Lowe's where I was working and he came around the corner and you had each other.
81
00:04:21,110 --> 00:04:25,270
It was either Nick or Natalia probably had Natalia in the, in the cart.
82
00:04:25,350 --> 00:04:25,750
Absolutely.
83
00:04:25,870 --> 00:04:31,450
So that he was little and there you were and you were married dad and from then on.
84
00:04:31,550 --> 00:04:37,690
So you went from like a single Carl, which we worked together and known to coming back to a married man with a job.
85
00:04:37,810 --> 00:04:38,090
Yeah.
86
00:04:38,090 --> 00:04:38,890
Family man.
87
00:04:39,130 --> 00:04:39,230
Carlo.
88
00:04:39,230 --> 00:04:39,750
Yeah.
89
00:04:40,010 --> 00:04:40,450
Yeah.
90
00:04:40,630 --> 00:04:43,110
And I, I, I obviously had changed.
91
00:04:43,670 --> 00:04:45,650
Um, you know, he looks the same.
92
00:04:46,470 --> 00:04:49,490
But with you, I've seen, I've only known you.
93
00:04:49,690 --> 00:04:49,790
Yeah.
94
00:04:49,870 --> 00:04:50,050
Yeah.
95
00:04:50,050 --> 00:04:57,470
The whole time away and here as single Frank or even single when I left, I was married when I came back, but there weren't any kids running around.
96
00:04:57,590 --> 00:05:06,330
Um, so this has been, it's been neat to see at our age, the changes that we think at this point, we are, we are right.
97
00:05:06,430 --> 00:05:10,490
I mean, it's like 55 years old, 56 years old, you know, you're going to change a little here and there.
98
00:05:10,530 --> 00:05:21,150
And maybe when we, our kids have kids, grandkids, we change again as grandparents, but at our age right now, you are who you are, but it's nice to see like, Oh, now you're the dad version of Frank.
99
00:05:21,230 --> 00:05:21,550
Yeah.
100
00:05:21,610 --> 00:05:22,490
And that's new for me.
101
00:05:22,530 --> 00:05:23,050
And that's kind of cool.
102
00:05:23,210 --> 00:05:23,650
It is.
103
00:05:23,690 --> 00:05:26,150
Well, I'm glad, I'm glad you're enjoying it.
104
00:05:26,790 --> 00:05:28,410
I get to go home.
105
00:05:28,830 --> 00:05:33,010
I wanted to be a parent just for that, for mostly for Carlo.
106
00:05:33,470 --> 00:05:35,570
So he could see, I knew it.
107
00:05:35,750 --> 00:05:38,870
I do all this time and effort was for me and this podcast.
108
00:05:39,270 --> 00:05:40,650
So it's fine.
109
00:05:40,770 --> 00:05:53,130
So one of the things that I do now as dad, as dad, Frank, as you might imagine, I use, I use Google alerts, Google alerts.
110
00:05:53,190 --> 00:06:00,010
I have these searches for stuff about parenting, child, childhood development, and all kinds of things.
111
00:06:00,090 --> 00:06:20,150
So if there's any interesting new stuff that comes out that I, I kinda in my email in the morning, I get a list of articles and all, and, and Kelly suggested, because I never, I haven't achieved reading through any books since the book report has ended with the dog books.
112
00:06:20,250 --> 00:06:24,750
Mostly you said you kind of skimmed the last couple of them, right?
113
00:06:24,990 --> 00:06:25,390
Yeah.
114
00:06:25,450 --> 00:06:29,390
And I was moving fast, but I do read a lot, but it's a lot of that kind of stuff.
115
00:06:29,470 --> 00:06:29,590
Right.
116
00:06:29,710 --> 00:06:34,770
So she's, she suggested, she's like, you should put these, when you find these articles that are fun, put them in book report.
117
00:06:35,170 --> 00:06:36,850
So we're going to go to one.
118
00:06:36,930 --> 00:06:39,450
We have not done in a while book report.
119
00:06:40,930 --> 00:06:58,510
So the book report on this time, there's a, I'm not usually a fan of CNBC, but their website CNBC's website has a whole collection of articles on what it's like success.
120
00:06:58,530 --> 00:07:01,370
And then under that raising successful kids.
121
00:07:01,450 --> 00:07:01,670
Okay.
122
00:07:01,950 --> 00:07:13,110
And this particular article I thought was very interesting because it's talking about one of the markers of successful, highly productive adults as children.
123
00:07:13,390 --> 00:07:18,250
The thing that is very common for all successful people.
124
00:07:18,950 --> 00:07:24,610
And that was being early and avid readers, which is something that now I liked.
125
00:07:24,710 --> 00:07:25,310
I love to read.
126
00:07:26,270 --> 00:07:28,530
Kelly reads voraciously all the time.
127
00:07:28,570 --> 00:07:29,230
She always has.
128
00:07:29,570 --> 00:07:32,210
She is continually for a lot of our relationship.
129
00:07:32,450 --> 00:07:33,190
I'm jealous of that.
130
00:07:33,450 --> 00:07:33,870
She will.
131
00:07:34,010 --> 00:07:36,750
I wish I was, I wish I was better with it too.
132
00:07:37,310 --> 00:07:38,490
She loves Harry Potter.
133
00:07:38,750 --> 00:07:43,810
She will have, she will be continually in addition to whatever else is in her queue.
134
00:07:44,070 --> 00:07:49,670
She will continually be reading through all of the Harry Potter books on a loop.
135
00:07:49,950 --> 00:07:54,630
Now, lately she's had enough to read with all the parenting stuff that Harry Potter has set aside.
136
00:07:55,110 --> 00:07:59,210
But yeah, so she'll like over and over again, like she, she reads it to her.
137
00:07:59,290 --> 00:08:00,910
She reads to relax.
138
00:08:01,030 --> 00:08:05,210
And I would probably, I could be wrong, but because she does that TV is really not that important.
139
00:08:05,210 --> 00:08:15,390
That was one of the things in the beginning of our, and I think I shared this with you when I was trying to figure out who this person was when she told me she didn't own a television for a while.
140
00:08:15,490 --> 00:08:18,410
And I'm like, I almost fainted off the escalator.
141
00:08:18,610 --> 00:08:22,250
I can't be in a relationship with someone who doesn't have a towel.
142
00:08:22,430 --> 00:08:27,310
Thank goodness by then she had one, but she was like, Oh yeah, for two or three years, I didn't have a TV at all.
143
00:08:27,450 --> 00:08:29,390
She has it just to put things on top of it.
144
00:08:31,610 --> 00:08:32,130
Yeah.
145
00:08:32,210 --> 00:08:35,530
I was like, what do you, what do you do when you're alone?
146
00:08:35,990 --> 00:08:42,350
And it's, I have learned for me, I have, I have tinnitus.
147
00:08:42,970 --> 00:08:45,790
So if there's nothing on it's horrible.
148
00:08:46,030 --> 00:08:53,390
So I, I have the TV is always, always on in the background because then it's, then it's, it's bearable.
149
00:08:57,690 --> 00:08:58,750
I haven't learned.
150
00:08:59,310 --> 00:09:02,250
And then every once in a while, one will just turn off.
151
00:09:02,610 --> 00:09:02,970
Yes.
152
00:09:03,750 --> 00:09:10,770
It's like that does, that happens more as I've gotten older, but he, all of a sudden it'll be like, you're right.
153
00:09:10,910 --> 00:09:17,790
I, I, the years of the guitar, as they say, 11, we put it at 11.
154
00:09:18,210 --> 00:09:19,550
I know screwed up my year.
155
00:09:19,630 --> 00:09:22,890
I mean, it had to, I mean, you, I don't know what you think you're, but no, the one sucks.
156
00:09:22,970 --> 00:09:27,150
I was always to the right of the amp and this here's good.
157
00:09:27,390 --> 00:09:28,150
So I need it.
158
00:09:28,150 --> 00:09:33,630
Like I'm used to having back and, and my growing up, my parents, it was always through dinner.
159
00:09:33,630 --> 00:09:35,150
Like it was always, there was always a TV.
160
00:09:35,290 --> 00:09:35,550
Absolutely.
161
00:09:35,850 --> 00:09:38,730
So this talking about how important that is.
162
00:09:38,750 --> 00:09:47,210
It talked about five things that are ways that parents of successful children encourage reading.
163
00:09:47,270 --> 00:09:47,570
Okay.
164
00:09:47,590 --> 00:09:50,910
And some of them I'm doing, some of them I'm going to have to learn to do.
165
00:09:50,930 --> 00:10:00,970
The first one that I think is one that I absolutely is one of my favorite parts of being a is treating baby babble as conversation all the time.
166
00:10:01,430 --> 00:10:02,510
I love doing that.
167
00:10:02,630 --> 00:10:03,290
It's so good.
168
00:10:03,370 --> 00:10:04,190
It's so much fun.
169
00:10:04,570 --> 00:10:07,070
It makes me laugh and have fun.
170
00:10:07,330 --> 00:10:09,250
So I'm like, it is, I'm never going to stop.
171
00:10:09,350 --> 00:10:10,910
So that's something you did with both the wood.
172
00:10:11,010 --> 00:10:11,290
Absolutely.
173
00:10:11,590 --> 00:10:12,670
I love doing that.
174
00:10:12,770 --> 00:10:16,790
So, so we're, we got that on lock treating baby babble as conversation.
175
00:10:17,310 --> 00:10:18,510
It just sounds funny.
176
00:10:18,770 --> 00:10:24,170
The next thing is they ask lots of questions and wait for answers.
177
00:10:24,990 --> 00:10:34,530
So you, you're constantly, especially obviously as they become more verbal right now, I could be waiting a while, but, but I'll still do that.
178
00:10:35,050 --> 00:10:36,970
I don't understand what you're saying.
179
00:10:37,030 --> 00:10:37,870
Explain it again.
180
00:10:39,270 --> 00:10:53,350
So, but building that, making it a conversation and, and really building their, their ability to kind of go do the back and forth and then wait for their answer and waiting for their answer.
181
00:10:53,450 --> 00:10:56,010
So that's another, so ask lots of questions, wait for answers.
182
00:10:56,210 --> 00:11:16,870
This is an interesting one and teaching them to write that, not just talking about letter shapes and how to draw them, but making sure you're talking about the sound and the shape at the same time, connecting, connecting the sound with the look of what the letter looks like, with what the letters, the sounds that the letter creates.
183
00:11:16,990 --> 00:11:17,570
Makes sense.
184
00:11:17,750 --> 00:11:19,310
Not just names or shapes.
185
00:11:19,310 --> 00:11:20,370
I'm learning so much.
186
00:11:20,930 --> 00:11:22,110
I'm going to be able to read that.
187
00:11:22,110 --> 00:11:30,150
You're going to show up at Natalia's work and be like, and he'd be like, that's right, dad.
188
00:11:30,370 --> 00:11:31,770
You are smart.
189
00:11:32,170 --> 00:11:32,890
I know you're crazy.
190
00:11:33,410 --> 00:11:35,110
Then they play with words.
191
00:11:35,210 --> 00:11:56,210
And then with this one, they're talking about like, she sells, she sells, whether she's all guys, he says, yeah, those, those kinds of things, but playing, playing with things, just being clever and funny and using different rhythmic combinations of words to, so they start to understand words as something that is just, that can be fun and play with.
192
00:11:56,550 --> 00:11:57,890
So playing with words.
193
00:11:57,910 --> 00:12:16,070
And then the last thing is, and this, I think I'll get better at, as we go through, I do this now, like I narrate when it's just like this morning, if it's just me and her, and I'm trying to keep her entertained and get stuff done, I just narrate the whole process of whatever I'm doing.
194
00:12:16,270 --> 00:12:18,130
So I'm like, so now we're going to feed the dogs.
195
00:12:18,330 --> 00:12:19,030
Watson gets more.
196
00:12:19,090 --> 00:12:19,750
Cause he's huge.
197
00:12:19,910 --> 00:12:21,830
And I'll start when he gets a cup and a half.
198
00:12:21,830 --> 00:12:23,150
And that was the moment when.
199
00:12:23,730 --> 00:12:24,130
Yes.
200
00:12:24,250 --> 00:12:25,150
And that was the moment.
201
00:12:25,530 --> 00:12:26,370
Daddy realized.
202
00:12:26,490 --> 00:12:27,230
Daddy realized.
203
00:12:27,470 --> 00:12:27,990
Mommy was crazy.
204
00:12:29,690 --> 00:12:31,150
But he gets that reference.
205
00:12:31,370 --> 00:12:32,090
You get an apple.
206
00:12:32,290 --> 00:12:32,730
That's right.
207
00:12:33,210 --> 00:12:34,310
They seize.
208
00:12:34,590 --> 00:12:39,170
So this one, the number five was, they seize readable moments all day long.
209
00:12:39,230 --> 00:12:49,630
So it's not just reading as a real, as the event reading before vet, it's just finding opportunities throughout the day to what's that say?
210
00:12:49,730 --> 00:12:50,770
And what does that sign say?
211
00:12:50,830 --> 00:12:56,970
And, and, and finding opportunities to talk about and reinforce reading throughout the day.
212
00:12:57,570 --> 00:13:01,110
Kelly is already doing reading time, right?
213
00:13:01,130 --> 00:13:06,730
Like she has the books and now it's more like they're all very high contrast color stuff.
214
00:13:07,150 --> 00:13:09,290
And she engages, she likes baby beluga.
215
00:13:10,070 --> 00:13:12,090
There's one, a whale book.
216
00:13:12,190 --> 00:13:16,010
She really likes, she will be all over reading time.
217
00:13:16,490 --> 00:13:31,310
So can I, I want to throw this out there because I grew up with none of this in my, I did, I was going to ask you, and I don't know if you know, with Kelly, did she grow up with this, you think, uh, set up, uh, to get her reading the way she is now?
218
00:13:31,690 --> 00:13:32,650
And how were you?
219
00:13:32,730 --> 00:13:33,610
And you just answered that.
220
00:13:33,750 --> 00:13:34,890
You were more like my parents.
221
00:13:35,230 --> 00:13:36,550
I had none of this.
222
00:13:37,090 --> 00:13:37,950
It's interesting.
223
00:13:38,450 --> 00:13:48,330
When I went to kindergarten, I was way ahead of other kids just because I had my, my sisters, they were teenagers when I was born.
224
00:13:48,590 --> 00:13:52,590
So they taught me like I knew my alphabet and I can read, I can do all that stuff.
225
00:13:52,710 --> 00:13:57,250
I was, yeah, I was way ahead, but there was no story time.
226
00:13:57,410 --> 00:14:11,310
And I, I enjoyed reading, but like by the time I got into school where reading was important, I like there was, I had certain authors that I like to read and it's mostly science fiction stuff.
227
00:14:11,370 --> 00:14:14,210
And that was it with Kelly and her family.
228
00:14:14,210 --> 00:14:20,910
I think obviously there was a very intense focus put on academics, right?
229
00:14:21,130 --> 00:14:22,670
That was the only thing that matters.
230
00:14:23,130 --> 00:14:23,230
Yeah.
231
00:14:23,410 --> 00:14:28,870
Very high standard for academic excellence and education in general.
232
00:14:29,330 --> 00:14:35,030
But I think her older brother, they are cut.
233
00:14:35,070 --> 00:14:43,010
They are definitely cut from the same cloth in that Kelly is one of these people that knows it's like, what's that plant knows it?
234
00:14:43,110 --> 00:14:44,790
What's that bird knows it?
235
00:14:46,810 --> 00:14:52,250
Encyclopedic knowledge of nature, all that, all that stuff.
236
00:14:54,890 --> 00:14:56,210
Everybody knows that.
237
00:14:56,310 --> 00:14:57,230
I'm like, Nope.
238
00:14:57,470 --> 00:14:58,990
I know one bird.
239
00:14:59,710 --> 00:15:00,010
Yeah.
240
00:15:00,010 --> 00:15:01,530
I know it's a Robin.
241
00:15:01,870 --> 00:15:03,710
I know that that's a Robin.
242
00:15:03,730 --> 00:15:04,570
I'll still screw that up.
243
00:15:04,710 --> 00:15:04,930
Yeah.
244
00:15:05,270 --> 00:15:06,450
Sparrow, Robin.
245
00:15:06,790 --> 00:15:09,410
That's a pigeon from downtown Syracuse.
246
00:15:09,530 --> 00:15:11,270
I can recognize those.
247
00:15:11,730 --> 00:15:24,890
But yeah, no, she she's, and I think it's because he was a few years ahead and he, I think he spent an, a tremendous amount of time kind of being her little tour guide of the world.
248
00:15:25,050 --> 00:15:35,610
And I, and that probably, he probably inspired the reading, but, and it was definitely, I think for her because her, her, her mom pretty strict.
249
00:15:36,210 --> 00:15:42,490
And I think for, for her and probably her siblings, reading was a little bit of a, an escape, right?
250
00:15:42,630 --> 00:15:47,510
Like it was like, like they could never, they couldn't have, she was just telling me about this the other day.
251
00:15:47,910 --> 00:15:51,710
She's a huge Harry Potter fan, but Harry Potter was a no-no.
252
00:15:51,810 --> 00:15:52,710
It was not allowed in the house.
253
00:15:52,770 --> 00:15:54,990
So they had a hidden set of Harry Potter books.
254
00:15:55,370 --> 00:15:55,490
Really?
255
00:15:55,910 --> 00:15:59,170
That's their version of being bad, which I think is amusing.
256
00:15:59,310 --> 00:16:04,450
That's their version of me hiding my Judas Priest and Black Sabbath albums.
257
00:16:04,590 --> 00:16:06,530
I couldn't have around the house because I looked evil.
258
00:16:06,690 --> 00:16:07,690
That's why I'm always amused.
259
00:16:07,830 --> 00:16:09,430
She's just like, you hid Harry Potter books.
260
00:16:09,530 --> 00:16:11,010
And my mom found my lock picks.
261
00:16:11,190 --> 00:16:15,330
What are you doing with these?
262
00:16:15,510 --> 00:16:17,030
Why do you have these?
263
00:16:17,470 --> 00:16:19,390
Yeah, no, that, like that, that's what it was like.
264
00:16:19,530 --> 00:16:20,590
It's, it's, it's stuff like that.
265
00:16:20,650 --> 00:16:22,450
That's funny how different people grow up.
266
00:16:22,470 --> 00:16:22,590
Yeah.
267
00:16:22,590 --> 00:16:24,250
She's like, we hid Harry Potter books.
268
00:16:24,370 --> 00:16:24,650
Okay.
269
00:16:25,450 --> 00:16:25,790
Yeah.
270
00:16:25,830 --> 00:16:34,110
The whole reading thing, it's, you can tell because with my, my wife is very into reading and educated in that sort of stuff that I was not.
271
00:16:34,270 --> 00:16:39,310
I just, I come from two parents that didn't read themselves.
272
00:16:39,490 --> 00:16:41,490
The language barrier is a real thing.
273
00:16:41,570 --> 00:16:42,290
It was tough, man.
274
00:16:42,290 --> 00:16:51,210
My mother, my mother, I think went to second grade and my dad barely made it out of like maybe fifth grade or sixth grade.
275
00:16:51,350 --> 00:17:04,430
And it was, it's, it's, so when you're raising us and then the language, I mean, by the time I was five, I was in my third country of language, you know, so I did have a problem in school.
276
00:17:04,569 --> 00:17:08,490
I was, you know, I had a problem with picking up English and it's not easy.
277
00:17:08,770 --> 00:17:09,869
English is not easy.
278
00:17:10,369 --> 00:17:16,270
So in what I, you know, I remember having problems with why is this word sound like this word, but it's not spelled the same word.
279
00:17:16,310 --> 00:17:18,150
It is spelled the same, but it means different things.
280
00:17:18,290 --> 00:17:19,450
I couldn't figure it out.
281
00:17:19,510 --> 00:17:20,849
Why is there silent anything?
282
00:17:21,170 --> 00:17:26,530
The languages you knew are much more consistent and organized in a very logical way.
283
00:17:26,890 --> 00:17:31,350
It's different when you have all these, like, you know, this before this sounds like this.
284
00:17:31,470 --> 00:17:40,470
And if you take that away and put that in front of here, it's a, it's a, so I made reading like a bad thing.
285
00:17:40,570 --> 00:17:41,570
It was like an evil thing.
286
00:17:41,630 --> 00:17:42,930
I was scared of it.
287
00:17:43,230 --> 00:17:48,390
So I was always behind in school until I kind of, okay, now you have to figure it out.
288
00:17:48,610 --> 00:17:49,530
And I'm not the best reader.
289
00:17:49,630 --> 00:17:53,970
So if you don't, if you don't, if you don't think you're the best reader, you're not going to read as much as you fear it.
290
00:17:54,890 --> 00:17:55,290
Yeah.
291
00:17:55,470 --> 00:18:05,030
No, that's a, yeah, I was never like, I would, I never, even to this day, I don't read, I read a lot, but I read nonfiction.
292
00:18:05,030 --> 00:18:07,670
Like I read about whatever I want to learn about.
293
00:18:08,090 --> 00:18:12,250
I've very, there are a handful of books, fiction that I've read.
294
00:18:13,650 --> 00:18:14,050
Yeah.
295
00:18:14,330 --> 00:18:14,510
Yeah.
296
00:18:14,690 --> 00:18:21,690
But that's something that I'm sure between the two of us, I think Josie's going to be a reader.
297
00:18:22,030 --> 00:18:23,210
So I thought that was fun.
298
00:18:23,350 --> 00:18:24,890
So that is a book report.
299
00:18:25,930 --> 00:18:28,730
So shows like shows like Sesame street and all that stuff.
300
00:18:28,870 --> 00:18:29,490
It does.
301
00:18:29,570 --> 00:18:37,130
I mean, yes, there's a, but they do teach like the, the A's and the, you know, they do have the fun fundamentals of what you're doing and reading and all that.
302
00:18:37,530 --> 00:18:38,970
And now, but now it's miss Rachel.
303
00:18:39,330 --> 00:18:40,630
I don't even know what it is now.
304
00:18:40,890 --> 00:18:41,390
Miss Rachel.
305
00:18:41,590 --> 00:18:45,970
She is the most, she is the most highly monetized person on YouTube.
306
00:18:45,970 --> 00:18:49,590
There's a video going around on Tik TOK or one at one of those.
307
00:18:49,870 --> 00:18:56,230
It's a real, and it's showing this starts with this little cute little kid crying, just inconsolable.
308
00:18:56,490 --> 00:19:00,130
He's crying and they put on miss Rachel and you hear hi.
309
00:19:00,250 --> 00:19:03,730
And he goes, he's his app.
310
00:19:03,850 --> 00:19:06,810
He just lights up just the sound of her voice.
311
00:19:06,890 --> 00:19:12,790
And then there's like five other examples, different kids, and they're all either disinterested or not.
312
00:19:12,790 --> 00:19:30,070
And as soon as they hear her voice, I think they have found a way to have some kind of high frequency that only babies hear that to get their attention because it's, it's remarkable how it just the sound of her saying hello, we had, we had our version of that was Elmo.
313
00:19:30,690 --> 00:19:31,830
We had him on loop.
314
00:19:32,110 --> 00:19:32,710
We had him on loop.
315
00:19:32,970 --> 00:19:41,710
I mean, if Natalia cried, couldn't, we couldn't figure out what it was, Christmas or whatever it was, almost whatever that movie was.
316
00:19:41,850 --> 00:19:48,650
We've seen a billion times, but it was like, yeah, exactly.
317
00:19:49,030 --> 00:19:52,490
So that was our, that was our, uh, what's her name?
318
00:19:52,570 --> 00:19:54,210
Miss Rachel's I think is her name.
319
00:19:54,290 --> 00:20:02,610
I do worry about, cause a lot of the content is, has a particular social or political bent.
320
00:20:03,010 --> 00:20:10,990
So I feel like we started, like I've started to ever, whenever we do have a chance to watch TV, I'll be like, what's bluey?
321
00:20:11,110 --> 00:20:14,770
Like we're watching episodes of these things to see, is this stuff okay?
322
00:20:15,150 --> 00:20:29,770
Because I find myself, even though I like having the TV on when I, when I'm doing stuff with her and the TV's on in the background and I see her look at the TV, I'm like, that's one thing that I think will be hard, but there will be no screens with her.
323
00:20:30,010 --> 00:20:30,950
Oh no, no way.
324
00:20:31,350 --> 00:20:37,930
It is so everything I've read, everything Kelly has read, it is so detrimental for children.
325
00:20:38,150 --> 00:20:44,010
It destroys their ability to socialize their development in so many ways.
326
00:20:44,110 --> 00:20:47,510
I don't think I don't think I see it all that.
327
00:20:47,810 --> 00:20:48,130
Yeah.
328
00:20:48,350 --> 00:21:00,630
It's just like, that's the up here and the kid just talking and being part of the situation and the family and the, and the moment, it completely short circuits their development.
329
00:21:00,750 --> 00:21:07,050
And I tell you, I've been there and sometimes you need something and I get it.
330
00:21:07,110 --> 00:21:07,570
I get it.
331
00:21:07,590 --> 00:21:11,710
I'm not, I'm not trying to tell you, I've been there, but you have to know.
332
00:21:11,850 --> 00:21:12,390
I do worry.
333
00:21:12,630 --> 00:21:21,110
I do worry that there's going to be that moment where I want to turn to that, but I feel like what I'm trying to do is cultivate.
334
00:21:21,290 --> 00:21:23,850
I want, I would rather it be music.
335
00:21:23,930 --> 00:21:28,270
I want to try to find a way to use music to do that, to redirect.
336
00:21:28,270 --> 00:21:32,310
And hopefully I can build in her, like that love of it.
337
00:21:32,450 --> 00:21:42,850
You know, when it starts is when you get a little older and you start doing family stuff with the public, restaurants in places where you don't want to be seen and heard.
338
00:21:42,990 --> 00:21:45,030
And so that's when you want the kid to go crazy.
339
00:21:45,290 --> 00:21:48,930
And that's where I think most parents have problems with it.
340
00:21:49,030 --> 00:21:58,050
They don't want to be looked at the restaurant at Disney or maybe not Disney because everybody's crying, but you know, someone's church or this, that's the other.
341
00:21:58,530 --> 00:22:02,810
And that's when you start going, okay, just now, just for now, let me do this.
342
00:22:03,050 --> 00:22:04,870
And you might get into that kind of habit.
343
00:22:04,970 --> 00:22:05,750
It's, it's scary.
344
00:22:06,450 --> 00:22:09,770
We didn't, we weren't crazy, but we had our moment.
345
00:22:09,890 --> 00:22:10,630
The proof is in the pudding.
346
00:22:10,930 --> 00:22:11,490
It works.
347
00:22:11,570 --> 00:22:12,370
She's already right.
348
00:22:12,430 --> 00:22:15,490
Like the little kids, like they, you, you see it.
349
00:22:15,630 --> 00:22:18,030
It's like, they just, they're mesmerized.
350
00:22:18,190 --> 00:22:20,950
But in that moment, when you're looking at your kid, don't you?
351
00:22:21,030 --> 00:22:27,870
I would think if I saw my little girl and she's like that, it's, it's kind of weird.
352
00:22:27,870 --> 00:22:28,210
Right?
353
00:22:28,210 --> 00:22:30,730
Like they just are like, Oh, it's like a zombie.
354
00:22:30,850 --> 00:22:31,050
Yeah.
355
00:22:31,050 --> 00:22:35,010
They're like a zombie looking at the thing and they'll do it for as long as you let them.
356
00:22:35,070 --> 00:22:37,910
And when we take it away, they act like you just took away their crack.
357
00:22:38,190 --> 00:22:38,930
That's yeah.
358
00:22:39,230 --> 00:22:46,570
That's the scary part about it is how you know how long you've abused it by the way they act when you take it away.
359
00:22:46,730 --> 00:22:47,010
Yep.
360
00:22:47,170 --> 00:22:47,430
Yeah.
361
00:22:47,810 --> 00:22:49,530
No, I hope I can avoid that.
362
00:22:49,650 --> 00:22:50,150
You never know.
363
00:22:50,290 --> 00:22:52,130
They're 10 episodes from now.
364
00:22:52,210 --> 00:22:53,150
I might be like, yep, nope.
365
00:22:53,190 --> 00:22:54,210
She's in front of the TV.
366
00:22:54,370 --> 00:22:56,450
She's got four computers from the TV.
367
00:22:56,550 --> 00:22:58,470
I don't see that happening.
368
00:22:58,770 --> 00:22:59,610
I don't see that happening.
369
00:22:59,790 --> 00:23:02,390
I should be playing piano by, um, by three.
370
00:23:03,130 --> 00:23:04,190
I'd rather that.
371
00:23:04,670 --> 00:23:05,450
Oh, absolutely.
372
00:23:05,630 --> 00:23:06,430
Here's a tiny violin.
373
00:23:06,770 --> 00:23:07,130
Absolutely.
374
00:23:07,230 --> 00:23:09,290
The way your brain opens up with music.
375
00:23:09,350 --> 00:23:10,070
Oh my God.
376
00:23:10,770 --> 00:23:13,370
How easy it is to learn other things like language.
377
00:23:13,370 --> 00:23:17,110
When you pick up another language, it just opens your mind up to everything else.
378
00:23:17,410 --> 00:23:23,530
I started working with me, but no, but yeah, so I, hopefully we can avoid that.
379
00:23:23,610 --> 00:23:23,850
Yes.
380
00:23:23,970 --> 00:23:32,690
But we're going to move on now to something we have not done since April fool's day and it is check please.
381
00:23:34,430 --> 00:23:44,430
So if you recall, since it's been a while, check please, I'm going to, for the rest of my daughter's life, track how much money her mother and I are spending on her.
382
00:23:44,430 --> 00:23:46,690
So we went through and updated it.
383
00:23:46,830 --> 00:23:58,810
So now the last time we did it was a little over a month ago and our total was $4,309 and 63 cents on, on everything.
384
00:23:58,950 --> 00:24:03,930
Most of it, I think the number one spending category was the cradle wise and then Amazon.
385
00:24:04,130 --> 00:24:10,990
So in a little, about another six weeks, most of which of the time that she's been, you know, well, the second half of her being home.
386
00:24:10,990 --> 00:24:13,670
So we're eliminating what to these costs.
387
00:24:13,830 --> 00:24:15,870
We're not, because I know we've done a lot of stuff.
388
00:24:16,130 --> 00:24:17,570
There's been big things that happened.
389
00:24:18,190 --> 00:24:18,530
Yeah.
390
00:24:18,670 --> 00:24:21,750
This is just what clothes and, you know, that's a good question.
391
00:24:21,870 --> 00:24:24,770
Should I be like, should I be throwing like the baptism expenses?
392
00:24:25,110 --> 00:24:25,390
Yeah.
393
00:24:25,510 --> 00:24:27,430
That's what you're spending it on your daughter.
394
00:24:27,430 --> 00:24:28,510
This would be a lot higher.
395
00:24:28,850 --> 00:24:29,410
That's what I mean.
396
00:24:29,510 --> 00:24:30,870
No, I don't include that.
397
00:24:30,890 --> 00:24:31,990
We won't play that way I guess.
398
00:24:32,490 --> 00:24:32,590
No.
399
00:24:32,590 --> 00:24:33,490
Because it'll be in the millions.
400
00:24:33,490 --> 00:24:33,770
Yeah.
401
00:24:33,870 --> 00:24:35,970
Like the brunch was kind of more for us.
402
00:24:36,050 --> 00:24:36,450
Exactly.
403
00:24:36,530 --> 00:24:37,890
She didn't have any eggs by the way.
404
00:24:38,850 --> 00:24:48,770
So no, so it's basically anything that's really directly for her diapers, clothes or equipment that we need in support of her survival.
405
00:24:48,930 --> 00:24:49,530
Okay.
406
00:24:49,690 --> 00:24:50,530
Six weeks.
407
00:24:50,610 --> 00:24:52,950
I'm horrible at this.
408
00:24:53,090 --> 00:24:55,850
So I'm sure you're going to get better over time.
409
00:24:55,930 --> 00:24:56,630
I don't know.
410
00:24:59,110 --> 00:25:00,210
Six weeks.
411
00:25:00,370 --> 00:25:02,650
I will say it's mostly this time.
412
00:25:02,850 --> 00:25:06,630
It was mo it was a little bit of equipment, bottle stuff.
413
00:25:07,770 --> 00:25:09,030
It was clothes.
414
00:25:09,130 --> 00:25:26,950
I talked about some of the clothes when I, when I traveled didn't tell me how much it costs, but you told me you bought stuff and, and then obviously diapers and the, the way I hear about Josie's sometimes she just, she got me for the first time in a long time.
415
00:25:26,950 --> 00:25:29,150
She got me on a double this morning.
416
00:25:29,350 --> 00:25:29,990
She did.
417
00:25:30,050 --> 00:25:31,690
She smiled at me and peed.
418
00:25:31,690 --> 00:25:39,450
I'm like, ah, I'm going to say in six weeks we are going to round it right off a nice $700.
419
00:25:40,230 --> 00:25:41,370
Let's say five brand.
420
00:25:41,910 --> 00:25:42,970
You're very close.
421
00:25:43,070 --> 00:25:43,690
So you're getting better.
422
00:25:43,830 --> 00:25:44,090
Really?
423
00:25:44,330 --> 00:25:44,530
Yep.
424
00:25:44,970 --> 00:25:51,630
Even we were going through it and even Kelly just, she was further off than you and she's helping me, giving me what she's doing.
425
00:25:51,950 --> 00:25:56,050
I put in everything I've done and then I'm like, okay, you got to tell me what you did.
426
00:25:56,450 --> 00:26:01,670
So the new total is 49, 25, 53.
427
00:26:01,890 --> 00:26:03,370
You were within a hundred dollars.
428
00:26:03,790 --> 00:26:03,890
Yeah.
429
00:26:04,030 --> 00:26:06,470
So about, you know, almost 600 bucks.
430
00:26:06,710 --> 00:26:12,290
A lot of it was clothes, some travel stuff that I was not aware of.
431
00:26:12,570 --> 00:26:26,530
Kelly got a travel cooler for when you have to bring like bottles and a travel bottle warmer, which I would have thought we would just bring the mom cozy because it's not that big.
432
00:26:26,890 --> 00:26:31,970
But so we have some extra equipment that I'm going to have to learn how to use, but that was it.
433
00:26:32,070 --> 00:26:37,190
So yeah, 49, 25, 53, still not as high as I thought we were going to end up being.
434
00:26:37,510 --> 00:26:37,870
Right.
435
00:26:38,170 --> 00:26:38,350
Yeah.
436
00:26:38,390 --> 00:26:39,650
That was still under five grand.
437
00:26:39,750 --> 00:26:39,950
Yeah.
438
00:26:39,990 --> 00:26:41,230
Still under five grand.
439
00:26:41,450 --> 00:26:41,810
Almost.
440
00:26:41,950 --> 00:26:44,830
Well, obviously five grand, like it's 10 bucks.
441
00:26:45,090 --> 00:26:45,670
That's the thing.
442
00:26:45,710 --> 00:26:46,150
You know what I mean?
443
00:26:46,310 --> 00:26:47,050
Still under 10.
444
00:26:47,710 --> 00:26:48,730
We're so spoiled.
445
00:26:48,730 --> 00:26:52,150
Like we don't even, we don't even think about it.
446
00:26:52,270 --> 00:26:54,290
Our parents bought their house at $23,000.
447
00:26:55,230 --> 00:26:57,630
My parents, it was nine grand.
448
00:26:57,850 --> 00:27:00,670
They bought their house for a night, like 1955.
449
00:27:01,510 --> 00:27:02,150
You're almost there.
450
00:27:02,610 --> 00:27:02,850
Yeah.
451
00:27:02,930 --> 00:27:03,490
That's fine.
452
00:27:03,590 --> 00:27:04,570
It is.
453
00:27:04,730 --> 00:27:07,750
But so that, that, that is, that is it for check, please.
454
00:27:08,050 --> 00:27:11,830
Hey, don't miss any of the fun subscribe on YouTube.
455
00:27:12,210 --> 00:27:15,210
Follow us on Tik TOK, Facebook and Instagram.
456
00:27:15,950 --> 00:27:20,010
And we're going to roll into what just happened.
457
00:27:21,870 --> 00:27:28,110
So I think we had our something that happens to every parent that it was a first for us.
458
00:27:28,150 --> 00:27:33,490
It was our first unnecessary trip to the pediatrician.
459
00:27:35,550 --> 00:27:49,430
So, and I don't know how much we, we talked a little bit about this, but one afternoon Kelly mentioned that the baby is holding her.
460
00:27:49,550 --> 00:27:53,350
She's kind of had her head tilted and staying that way.
461
00:27:53,810 --> 00:27:54,930
She's fine.
462
00:27:55,530 --> 00:27:57,570
She's as smiley as she always is.
463
00:27:57,610 --> 00:27:58,370
She's interacting.
464
00:27:58,590 --> 00:28:01,510
She's good, but she's just kind of like that.
465
00:28:01,770 --> 00:28:11,290
And you know, I had thought about and noticed, you know, I'm always, I typically, if I hold her in a cradle hold head here, she's always looking that way.
466
00:28:11,490 --> 00:28:11,630
Right.
467
00:28:11,770 --> 00:28:15,710
So I'm like, well, she's always kind of the way you're holding her direction wise.
468
00:28:16,130 --> 00:28:16,710
That's where she's looking.
469
00:28:16,790 --> 00:28:17,090
Yeah.
470
00:28:17,090 --> 00:28:21,730
She's looking, she's looking in that direction, but I had thought a couple of times, you know, I'd lay her down.
471
00:28:21,810 --> 00:28:23,050
She's always looking that way.
472
00:28:23,050 --> 00:28:28,130
And, and then she would, she would look our way and we're doing tummy time and different things.
473
00:28:28,710 --> 00:28:31,750
So I kind of discounted it when she brought it up.
474
00:28:31,770 --> 00:28:33,590
I'm like, Oh, she looks different ways.
475
00:28:33,670 --> 00:28:40,970
Cause then at one point when she seemed a little more concerned, I kind of, I, I took the baby to the bed.
476
00:28:41,110 --> 00:28:47,630
I got a little Josie, I got a pillow and I start like I do with tummy time and I put her and she's looking this way.
477
00:28:47,970 --> 00:28:52,530
And, and Kelly is like, see, she's looking.
478
00:28:52,670 --> 00:28:56,690
I'm like, no, she's actually looking in the opposite direction of what you've been complaining about.
479
00:28:56,750 --> 00:28:58,330
Cause now we're in a different position.
480
00:28:58,850 --> 00:29:00,470
And I'm, you know, I think she's fine.
481
00:29:00,470 --> 00:29:02,750
But if you call the, you know, call the pediatrician if you want.
482
00:29:03,150 --> 00:29:03,890
Yeah, absolutely.
483
00:29:04,470 --> 00:29:08,250
Now, so she called and they said, well, you know, you can bring her in.
484
00:29:08,750 --> 00:29:13,250
Uh, or we had a followup later in the week, I think with the lactation consultant.
485
00:29:13,690 --> 00:29:16,170
So that, or you could, maybe we can set up something for them.
486
00:29:16,290 --> 00:29:17,310
This was earlier in the week.
487
00:29:17,330 --> 00:29:18,130
So not a thing.
488
00:29:18,250 --> 00:29:27,910
We weren't so, weren't so worried the next day having coffee, I got my computer and I, and I I'm keeping an eye on her and I've her in the little BB Bjorn seat.
489
00:29:28,190 --> 00:29:35,050
So she's on the table in front of me and I'm looking at her and she is like, her body is a sea.
490
00:29:35,990 --> 00:29:40,450
She is completely like, I can't even do it.
491
00:29:41,030 --> 00:29:42,230
Just hunch this way.
492
00:29:42,730 --> 00:29:58,230
And so head tilted and looking off to the right and just looks absolutely looks uncomfortable acting, not uncomfortable at all.
493
00:29:58,290 --> 00:30:00,050
And like, so she's fine.
494
00:30:00,110 --> 00:30:01,110
Like she's happy.
495
00:30:01,190 --> 00:30:01,630
She's smiling.
496
00:30:01,730 --> 00:30:03,370
We're talking to her like we always do.
497
00:30:03,450 --> 00:30:06,950
She's completely behaviorally interactively.
498
00:30:07,090 --> 00:30:07,470
Okay.
499
00:30:07,530 --> 00:30:10,730
She's fine, but it just looks so weird.
500
00:30:11,010 --> 00:30:12,450
So of course, what did I do?
501
00:30:12,990 --> 00:30:16,890
What you should never do, which is Google search.
502
00:30:17,450 --> 00:30:29,630
And I do Google search and I find something immediately called torticollis, torticollis, which is also called apparently Rhynac.
503
00:30:30,170 --> 00:30:30,570
Jesus.
504
00:30:30,810 --> 00:30:31,590
I don't know what that is.
505
00:30:31,890 --> 00:30:36,550
I've never heard of Rhynac before, but it may be people know it from that torticollis.
506
00:30:36,750 --> 00:30:55,030
So it is a condition that can be something from birth or something that develops later on in there as an infant or as a, even as an older child, where in some cases, one of the muscles in the neck is shorter on one side than the other.
507
00:30:55,890 --> 00:31:01,230
So they, so as they develop and things loosen up and change, it starts, they start to do that.
508
00:31:02,110 --> 00:31:16,810
Sometimes it is because of their position in, in utero when they're developing, they're all kind of, if they were in that position a lot, they tend to drift, drift toward that.
509
00:31:17,890 --> 00:31:28,790
But, and then, so, and of course immediately, and we talked about it, I think I've gotten better, but seeing this immediately, I go to, Yeah, you're looking at it and reading.
510
00:31:28,990 --> 00:31:30,330
Now you're like, it is.
511
00:31:30,470 --> 00:31:32,030
And I'm like, I'm more, I'm more.
512
00:31:32,150 --> 00:31:39,710
And then I'm looking at now, even, even if it was that the long-term solution is like, look, it usually corrects itself.
513
00:31:39,710 --> 00:31:44,530
If it doesn't, there are very, there are very simple surgeries that can be done.
514
00:31:45,390 --> 00:31:48,950
So it's not, but I'm like, get, call the doctor.
515
00:31:49,730 --> 00:31:54,890
Kelly comes and looks and yeah, it looked like she should be in pain.
516
00:31:55,150 --> 00:31:56,530
Somebody should be crying when they're in that.
517
00:31:56,630 --> 00:31:56,870
Yeah.
518
00:31:57,010 --> 00:32:06,690
And, and the, the thing that sold it for me was I'm like, okay, if there's nothing wrong, if there's nothing's tight, then I kind of picked her up and I held her on her side.
519
00:32:06,690 --> 00:32:12,170
So imagine she's like facing me and I'm now, she was, she was bent this way.
520
00:32:12,470 --> 00:32:12,590
Okay.
521
00:32:12,690 --> 00:32:14,970
So I'm holding her so that she should fold down.
522
00:32:15,410 --> 00:32:15,750
Right.
523
00:32:15,970 --> 00:32:16,170
Right.
524
00:32:16,170 --> 00:32:20,830
She should loosen up and she didn't get past level.
525
00:32:21,010 --> 00:32:27,710
So she was like, so the muscles on that side were tight and it wasn't like she was trying and she was happy as a clam while I'm doing it.
526
00:32:27,770 --> 00:32:31,630
She's smiling at me, but I'm like, okay, yeah, no, there's something.
527
00:32:31,810 --> 00:32:37,990
And I was even looking up like, well, maybe we can do a little, just some heat, a little warm, like to loosen up the muscle there.
528
00:32:38,830 --> 00:32:40,210
And Kelly's like, let's go to the doctor.
529
00:32:40,630 --> 00:32:41,590
Do not put any heat.
530
00:32:41,630 --> 00:32:41,930
Yeah.
531
00:32:42,070 --> 00:32:57,770
And I'm like, I'm not going to like throw a hot pack on her, but, uh, but yeah, so, so we took, we made, we make the trip and we get there and it's funny because again, throughout the day, the first day when I poo pooed it, by the end of the day, we were giving her a bath.
532
00:32:57,830 --> 00:33:00,870
It was, it was not, not evident at all.
533
00:33:01,070 --> 00:33:03,730
The next morning, bam, horseshoe.
534
00:33:04,370 --> 00:33:05,450
And I'm like, Oh, okay.
535
00:33:05,470 --> 00:33:06,070
What is this?
536
00:33:06,130 --> 00:33:06,730
What's going on?
537
00:33:07,850 --> 00:33:12,730
So, but then again, a couple of there, the pediatrician, great.
538
00:33:12,930 --> 00:33:14,310
They're like, well, you can bring her in.
539
00:33:14,410 --> 00:33:19,450
It was, we call them like when they opened at eight 30 in the morning and they got us in at like 11.
540
00:33:20,050 --> 00:33:23,890
So we show up by the time we get there, she's looking in the other direction.
541
00:33:24,230 --> 00:33:25,090
She's tap dancing.
542
00:33:25,350 --> 00:33:30,970
And now, and of course the, the, the pediatrician that we see, Cheryl's very nice woman.
543
00:33:31,350 --> 00:33:33,690
She's going through and doing all that.
544
00:33:33,750 --> 00:33:37,930
She's like, look, there's, there's nothing, there's nothing apparently wrong.
545
00:33:38,170 --> 00:33:42,890
You know, she's checking, you know, checking her pupils and doing, doing all that.
546
00:33:42,990 --> 00:33:46,670
So she does a good exam and she's like, there is a thing called torticoles.
547
00:33:46,790 --> 00:33:51,510
It could be that I'm going to refer you to a orthopedic specialist.
548
00:33:52,650 --> 00:34:11,030
But if this, and the way she said it was kind of funny, if this happens to resolve, don't feel compelled to go like, so basically she's like, she's starting the clock on that in case this isn't, but already she was, you could tell this was just a thing.
549
00:34:11,030 --> 00:34:13,530
She was, you know, she was favoring that way.
550
00:34:13,550 --> 00:34:14,650
And then all of a sudden better.
551
00:34:15,210 --> 00:34:22,590
And by the next day, it hasn't happened since really just went away after you.
552
00:34:23,630 --> 00:34:24,949
What's the improvement?
553
00:34:25,130 --> 00:34:26,570
No recurrence whatsoever.
554
00:34:27,290 --> 00:34:27,510
Yeah.
555
00:34:28,190 --> 00:34:29,790
Never again like that.
556
00:34:30,150 --> 00:34:30,630
Yeah.
557
00:34:30,830 --> 00:34:37,150
It's just, yeah, it was, it was, it was spooky, especially because she wasn't bothered by it.
558
00:34:37,150 --> 00:34:47,250
But when you read more about the torticoles stuff, it also, it was like, they made it sound like it was like a, almost like a muscle spasm that would be uncomfortable.
559
00:34:47,489 --> 00:34:52,270
And she never, I was going to ask the children that have this, are they uncomfortable?
560
00:34:52,429 --> 00:34:58,230
And I think, yeah, they, they don't talk about it as being painful, but it definitely, but it's not something they're going to smile at.
561
00:34:58,330 --> 00:35:00,190
No, they're not going to be completely normal.
562
00:35:00,450 --> 00:35:03,550
So we were a little, we were a little trigger happy.
563
00:35:03,830 --> 00:35:05,910
Well, that's when you bring them.
564
00:35:05,970 --> 00:35:07,510
I mean, when you see stuff like that.
565
00:35:07,510 --> 00:35:07,850
Yeah.
566
00:35:07,950 --> 00:35:10,930
And again, I never experienced that with my children.
567
00:35:11,330 --> 00:35:16,550
So if I saw that myself, I would be like, Oh, this is not what I am used to.
568
00:35:16,730 --> 00:35:20,610
We have a good doctors and place to go and they take care of you.
569
00:35:20,770 --> 00:35:24,930
So, Hey, nothing is too small and nothing's too, you know what I mean?
570
00:35:25,090 --> 00:35:25,930
Better safe than sorry.
571
00:35:26,130 --> 00:35:26,310
Exactly.
572
00:35:27,130 --> 00:35:30,950
If you, if you can do it, you got the, you can do it and they get you in.
573
00:35:31,270 --> 00:35:34,190
And yeah, I would rather if you had a child and had that before.
574
00:35:34,610 --> 00:35:34,970
Yeah.
575
00:35:35,090 --> 00:35:37,610
And you go, Oh, I remember junior had that.
576
00:35:38,310 --> 00:35:40,410
But now you're like sitting there going, okay.
577
00:35:40,470 --> 00:35:42,370
And then you, like you said, you looking it up.
578
00:35:42,470 --> 00:35:43,290
Stop that.
579
00:35:43,570 --> 00:35:43,810
Oh yeah.
580
00:35:44,130 --> 00:35:47,490
No, there's so many things, but yeah.
581
00:35:47,550 --> 00:35:49,550
So we had our, that, that happened.
582
00:35:49,950 --> 00:35:53,730
And then we came up on, so this would have been two weeks ago.
583
00:35:53,770 --> 00:36:03,750
So right before this was, this was just a couple of days before we had to go for our two month physical, whatever checkup at the pediatrician.
584
00:36:03,810 --> 00:36:10,990
Now in between Josie got to meet one of her cousins, who's toddler age, right?
585
00:36:11,150 --> 00:36:12,490
Came to visit over the weekend.
586
00:36:12,690 --> 00:36:15,810
Now goes to daycare, was a great little girl.
587
00:36:16,490 --> 00:36:23,530
She comes to visit with her mom and she's, she's very, you know, very attentive, wants to play.
588
00:36:23,690 --> 00:36:27,750
And she's having a good time now and a great, great visit.
589
00:36:27,870 --> 00:36:33,350
It was nice to see, but we have very little exposure, right?
590
00:36:33,610 --> 00:36:38,750
And we're not keeping her sequestered from people, but she hasn't met a lot of people.
591
00:36:38,750 --> 00:36:45,370
Hasn't met any children, especially a child that's going to daycare and interacting with all the germs.
592
00:36:45,750 --> 00:37:00,090
So the next day by the, by the afternoon, she's starting to sound a little stuffy and by the evening, very stuffy, a little crabby.
593
00:37:00,090 --> 00:37:05,510
And I'm starting to feel like I've got like, I'm stuffy.
594
00:37:05,510 --> 00:37:06,830
I'm like, Oh, okay.
595
00:37:07,430 --> 00:37:10,790
But the next morning is our two month appointment.
596
00:37:11,290 --> 00:37:16,150
So Kelly takes her temperature, no fever.
597
00:37:17,130 --> 00:37:18,030
So we're okay.
598
00:37:18,670 --> 00:37:19,570
Very stuffy.
599
00:37:19,750 --> 00:37:27,850
So we didn't bust out the snot sucker, but I don't even know how, like, I haven't looked at that up close to see, but her nostrils are so tiny.
600
00:37:28,650 --> 00:37:32,150
So, but she used, there was some stuff like saline.
601
00:37:32,270 --> 00:37:43,090
She put a little saline in and got a pretty good size cookie out and she was breathing more clearly, you know, more, more freely, but she was basically, you know, in a good mood, but a little fussy.
602
00:37:43,710 --> 00:37:47,990
So, but at the two month, that's the first round of vaccinations.
603
00:37:49,210 --> 00:37:53,050
So I'm not looking forward to that, but we go.
604
00:37:53,690 --> 00:38:00,930
And, but of course we mentioned the cold, they take the temperature and she's got a low grade fever.
605
00:38:01,090 --> 00:38:02,030
So then it's like, Oh, okay.
606
00:38:02,050 --> 00:38:02,750
No vaccinations.
607
00:38:03,730 --> 00:38:05,150
And we see the doctor.
608
00:38:05,430 --> 00:38:06,210
She's great.
609
00:38:06,510 --> 00:38:07,470
Goes, looks her over.
610
00:38:07,690 --> 00:38:07,890
Yeah.
611
00:38:07,890 --> 00:38:09,030
She's got a little cold.
612
00:38:09,230 --> 00:38:10,770
You might, she's got a little fever.
613
00:38:11,330 --> 00:38:13,450
Don't, you know, don't be too concerned.
614
00:38:13,950 --> 00:38:14,950
Take her temperature.
615
00:38:16,070 --> 00:38:23,290
If it comes up a little bit, they gave us some baby Tylenol and I didn't know that like, obviously it's not a pill.
616
00:38:23,770 --> 00:38:27,130
So they give you the liquid and the syringe and they show you how much and all that stuff.
617
00:38:27,510 --> 00:38:30,730
And the, you know, we'll reschedule, we'll have followup in a week.
618
00:38:31,370 --> 00:38:33,050
So went home.
619
00:38:33,570 --> 00:38:46,650
And now when Kelly had taken the temperature, she did under the arm, the rectal temperature, which baby Josie is not a fan of, it was, it was, was more accurate.
620
00:38:46,970 --> 00:38:54,030
And because it was like a low grade, 100.5, like it was very, very low grade, but still this fever.
621
00:38:54,210 --> 00:38:59,630
So when we checked it later rectally, then it was the, so she still had it.
622
00:38:59,910 --> 00:39:02,370
So baby Josie does not spit up.
623
00:39:02,510 --> 00:39:14,970
No, like my sister Lucille talks about her son, Shane, that the doctor described him as, I think she said he was, he would call him a spitter, meaning he just, he spit up all the time.
624
00:39:15,190 --> 00:39:16,270
Like just, he spit up all the time.
625
00:39:16,430 --> 00:39:17,470
It does not happen.
626
00:39:18,050 --> 00:39:20,650
I don't remember my kids being that as well.
627
00:39:20,690 --> 00:39:20,970
Yeah.
628
00:39:21,090 --> 00:39:22,130
So, so yeah.
629
00:39:22,210 --> 00:39:23,670
Very little.
630
00:39:23,810 --> 00:39:24,470
There you go.
631
00:39:24,790 --> 00:39:30,510
Very little of that, but we did the Tylenol, took it fine.
632
00:39:30,790 --> 00:39:34,470
She didn't seem bothered by it, but then this was the worst one ever.
633
00:39:34,990 --> 00:39:39,990
With Kelly standing in the great room, kind of next to the glove seat.
634
00:39:40,170 --> 00:39:41,770
And she goes, Oh no.
635
00:39:42,090 --> 00:39:57,570
And I look and it's just, it was, it must've been a whole feed because it was like all over poor Kelly, all over her blouse and sweater down to her, her pants on the floor.
636
00:39:58,130 --> 00:40:00,230
Now she's, she's fine.
637
00:40:00,330 --> 00:40:01,310
Josie's like, well, okay.
638
00:40:01,970 --> 00:40:02,730
She's probably feeling great.
639
00:40:02,730 --> 00:40:07,210
And we're like trying to get the dog, like the dogs, we'll take care of it.
640
00:40:07,510 --> 00:40:09,450
So like, we're getting the dogs away.
641
00:40:09,890 --> 00:40:15,890
So we get Kelly cleaned up and then we had to give her, there was no way any of it stayed.
642
00:40:16,010 --> 00:40:17,190
So we had to give her another dose.
643
00:40:17,730 --> 00:40:18,470
One success.
644
00:40:18,630 --> 00:40:20,110
The second time, no problem.
645
00:40:20,790 --> 00:40:25,850
We gave her the little small dose and the, by the next day, fine.
646
00:40:26,250 --> 00:40:26,650
Yeah.
647
00:40:26,790 --> 00:40:28,310
Which was, which was good.
648
00:40:28,630 --> 00:40:35,930
So we, but we had our first, so we had our first experience with overreacting and then we had our first experience with a, with an actual cold.
649
00:40:36,190 --> 00:40:36,390
Sure.
650
00:40:36,750 --> 00:40:37,830
But good.
651
00:40:37,970 --> 00:40:41,050
Her immune system, she got it in and got it out.
652
00:40:41,250 --> 00:40:44,210
She kicked it in a day or so and was feeling much better.
653
00:40:44,830 --> 00:40:46,330
And yeah, that was, that was it.
654
00:40:46,410 --> 00:41:00,170
So then the big event coming up from the next week was getting ready for, and then having the baptism, which as many of you know, Carlo and Trina are the God parents.
655
00:41:00,310 --> 00:41:04,510
So we had some, we had some work to do to satisfy the clerical requirements.
656
00:41:04,670 --> 00:41:05,150
So funny.
657
00:41:05,530 --> 00:41:13,170
You just calling me up and going, do you have the testaments of the third priest in Sicily?
658
00:41:13,930 --> 00:41:17,450
We had to have baptismal certificates for both of them.
659
00:41:17,550 --> 00:41:19,930
And then also confirmation.
660
00:41:20,090 --> 00:41:25,290
And because they happen to be a couple, their marriage certificate, all from the church.
661
00:41:25,290 --> 00:41:29,590
Luckily they were helpful and I had to drive down and pick up the paperwork.
662
00:41:29,910 --> 00:41:30,130
Yeah.
663
00:41:30,130 --> 00:41:30,490
Oh, did you?
664
00:41:30,630 --> 00:41:30,950
I did.
665
00:41:31,030 --> 00:41:31,130
Yeah.
666
00:41:31,190 --> 00:41:31,770
I drove down.
667
00:41:31,910 --> 00:41:33,770
And so is the pastor there now?
668
00:41:33,810 --> 00:41:34,270
He left.
669
00:41:34,510 --> 00:41:34,610
Yeah.
670
00:41:34,650 --> 00:41:37,570
The new pastor, pastor is, I believe an Irish.
671
00:41:37,790 --> 00:41:39,430
Is he like a short, short guy?
672
00:41:39,850 --> 00:41:40,250
Yeah.
673
00:41:40,810 --> 00:41:41,610
I don't know who.
674
00:41:41,870 --> 00:41:42,370
My height.
675
00:41:42,830 --> 00:41:43,450
You're right.
676
00:41:43,690 --> 00:41:44,090
Sorry.
677
00:41:44,590 --> 00:41:46,110
You mean my height?
678
00:41:46,150 --> 00:41:50,670
Cause it wasn't, I went to the rectory there and he, this guy let me in.
679
00:41:50,690 --> 00:41:51,870
He didn't introduce himself or anything.
680
00:41:51,870 --> 00:41:53,730
And I was like, I'm here to pick up some cereal.
681
00:41:54,130 --> 00:41:54,290
Yup.
682
00:41:54,630 --> 00:41:55,150
And I went in.
683
00:41:55,290 --> 00:41:57,810
Kind of younger, but not, I mean, not old.
684
00:41:57,950 --> 00:41:59,330
No, maybe thirties.
685
00:41:59,650 --> 00:42:00,030
Yeah.
686
00:42:00,330 --> 00:42:00,710
Yeah.
687
00:42:00,710 --> 00:42:01,290
Maybe it was him.
688
00:42:01,390 --> 00:42:02,070
It might've been a janitor.
689
00:42:02,850 --> 00:42:05,830
He gave me the stuff and on my way.
690
00:42:06,230 --> 00:42:10,390
And the funny part is on my end, my stuff came from Sicily.
691
00:42:10,390 --> 00:42:10,490
Yeah.
692
00:42:10,670 --> 00:42:13,710
Your birth certificate from Sicily, from the baptismal certificate.
693
00:42:14,110 --> 00:42:17,910
So yeah, this is, I got it all together, put it together, brought it in.
694
00:42:17,970 --> 00:42:24,710
And I, we had to meet with the, our, our church has baptismal coordinators for new parents.
695
00:42:25,470 --> 00:42:31,290
So we got to meet with Lindsay and Dom.
696
00:42:31,290 --> 00:42:33,790
We're the couple, really nice couple.
697
00:42:34,430 --> 00:42:34,930
We got, yep.
698
00:42:35,030 --> 00:42:37,670
They, they took, they, they kind of facilitated, sent us all.
699
00:42:37,950 --> 00:42:38,990
We had to watch a video.
700
00:42:39,190 --> 00:42:42,450
It was like a couple hours and answer some questions.
701
00:42:42,450 --> 00:42:44,010
We had to fill out paperwork ourselves.
702
00:42:44,110 --> 00:42:50,710
And then we had to meet with them and, and talk a bit about how the baptism would go, but really nice couple.
703
00:42:51,030 --> 00:42:53,270
We recognize them from going to mass.
704
00:42:53,490 --> 00:42:55,170
We see them, but we had never been introduced.
705
00:42:55,350 --> 00:42:56,870
So we took care of that.
706
00:42:57,010 --> 00:43:03,670
And then Kelly's parents came from Buffalo the night before and her older brother and his wife.
707
00:43:04,450 --> 00:43:07,590
So they were all here in the morning to go to mass.
708
00:43:07,670 --> 00:43:17,830
Her other brother and his family came along and I was a little disappointed only because I father site, I was hoping it would be the doing the baptism.
709
00:43:18,130 --> 00:43:19,850
He is pastor for two parishes.
710
00:43:19,850 --> 00:43:23,970
So he did like the homily at 10, 10 a.m. Mass at one.
711
00:43:24,230 --> 00:43:26,910
And then he does mass at the other one at 1130.
712
00:43:27,070 --> 00:43:32,790
So he wasn't going, but the Deacon Brian's a great guy.
713
00:43:32,870 --> 00:43:34,630
I really like him at mass.
714
00:43:34,750 --> 00:43:35,610
He did do the homily.
715
00:43:35,770 --> 00:43:40,330
And I think he was, do you remember when he pointed out, he's like, there's baptisms.
716
00:43:40,510 --> 00:43:43,530
And so for some of these, it's their first child.
717
00:43:43,850 --> 00:43:46,010
He's still, he's still dealing with that.
718
00:43:46,470 --> 00:43:46,950
I think he is.
719
00:43:47,290 --> 00:43:49,390
He's still really, I'm surprised.
720
00:43:49,470 --> 00:43:50,170
He goes, really?
721
00:43:50,310 --> 00:43:50,690
You're free.
722
00:43:50,790 --> 00:43:51,110
You should.
723
00:43:51,210 --> 00:43:51,370
Yeah.
724
00:43:51,490 --> 00:43:51,870
I'm sure.
725
00:43:51,950 --> 00:43:57,690
And I thought, I thought maybe they were wrong, but no, he, he did a nice homily.
726
00:43:57,770 --> 00:43:58,830
We had a very nice mass.
727
00:43:58,990 --> 00:44:02,370
You know, faith is very important to, to Kelly's mom.
728
00:44:03,050 --> 00:44:11,970
But I think our, our, I think our parish showed well, like we had a nice mass and then, uh, uh, Deacon Brian did a great job.
729
00:44:12,190 --> 00:44:14,170
There were three babies being baptized.
730
00:44:14,970 --> 00:44:15,630
He did a great job.
731
00:44:16,090 --> 00:44:16,990
Yeah, it was neat.
732
00:44:17,210 --> 00:44:17,310
Yeah.
733
00:44:17,370 --> 00:44:27,030
I mean, obviously it took a little longer because there's three, but it was, it was really nice because you get to see other families and stuff enjoy themselves as much as we did.
734
00:44:27,150 --> 00:44:27,430
Yeah.
735
00:44:27,470 --> 00:44:28,630
It was, it was fun.
736
00:44:28,730 --> 00:44:30,010
So we, we did that.
737
00:44:30,390 --> 00:44:37,650
And then luckily because it was mother's day when we had it, that we were able to find a brunch that we could go to.
738
00:44:38,010 --> 00:44:39,710
So we had reservations.
739
00:44:39,970 --> 00:44:45,830
We went out to place in Fayetteville craftsman in and family came out and yeah.
740
00:44:45,930 --> 00:44:49,750
So what did you think of the overall experience of, of God parenting?
741
00:44:49,970 --> 00:44:59,950
I did it once before with my nephew, Peter, and we did it again with our nephew Nicholas, but we were not in the same location.
742
00:45:00,090 --> 00:45:02,330
We were in Syracuse and Nicholas was in Florida.
743
00:45:02,450 --> 00:45:05,250
So we were just named, but we didn't celebrate.
744
00:45:05,430 --> 00:45:17,350
This one was special because generally, um, you're not at our age when you're asked to be a God parent, you're generally in the thirties and everybody's having kids and, and stuff like that.
745
00:45:17,410 --> 00:45:22,830
So it's kind of nice to, to do it again at 56 years old.
746
00:45:23,010 --> 00:45:25,150
I thought the mass was perfect.
747
00:45:25,350 --> 00:45:27,030
It was a really nice way to do it.
748
00:45:27,050 --> 00:45:27,710
They do the mass.
749
00:45:27,790 --> 00:45:39,970
And then because it was mother's day, it felt like a special, it was a special day as it was with, with Kelly being the first, her first mother and then the baptism, which faith is very important to us.
750
00:45:40,370 --> 00:45:44,330
Um, which is a huge, huge part of our faith.
751
00:45:44,670 --> 00:45:45,590
Yeah, it was just great.
752
00:45:45,670 --> 00:45:46,030
It was great.
753
00:45:46,090 --> 00:45:48,250
And then lunch obviously was the brunch.
754
00:45:48,330 --> 00:45:49,370
The place is gorgeous.
755
00:45:49,570 --> 00:45:52,450
That was a good, I mean, they, I think they do it on other holidays.
756
00:45:52,450 --> 00:45:53,350
I would go back.
757
00:45:53,530 --> 00:45:53,770
Oh yeah.
758
00:45:53,930 --> 00:45:55,270
There was a nice brunch.
759
00:45:55,390 --> 00:45:56,230
The food was excellent.
760
00:45:56,370 --> 00:45:57,110
A lot of different food.
761
00:45:57,110 --> 00:45:57,610
Yeah.
762
00:45:57,610 --> 00:45:57,990
Yeah.
763
00:45:58,010 --> 00:45:59,150
Nice, nice variety.
764
00:45:59,330 --> 00:46:01,270
So you can have, you can go brunch way.
765
00:46:01,370 --> 00:46:02,570
You can go totally launch.
766
00:46:02,650 --> 00:46:03,970
You can go totally breakfast.
767
00:46:04,150 --> 00:46:04,330
Yeah.
768
00:46:04,350 --> 00:46:06,530
It was, it was, you really, you did a nice job.
769
00:46:06,610 --> 00:46:11,850
It was also helpful because my, my sister, Paula and Avi, obviously they were there.
770
00:46:12,310 --> 00:46:20,190
Um, but I had pressed into service since the baby for, for Kelly's birthday that happened not long ago.
771
00:46:20,690 --> 00:46:26,410
And then for, for mother's day, I had some gifts that I needed to have wrapped.
772
00:46:27,490 --> 00:46:29,130
And Paula told me about this.
773
00:46:29,790 --> 00:46:34,810
So, so well, there were two, she tell you about the, there was the jewelry and then the book and then the book.
774
00:46:34,810 --> 00:46:38,350
She just told me that boxes were given to her, not even open.
775
00:46:38,510 --> 00:46:39,150
I showed up.
776
00:46:39,230 --> 00:46:39,970
I'm like here.
777
00:46:40,370 --> 00:46:40,770
Yeah.
778
00:46:40,770 --> 00:46:43,290
Just a bunch of boxes from various places.
779
00:46:43,970 --> 00:46:45,790
But the, there were two things.
780
00:46:45,890 --> 00:46:50,030
So I did, I was, I was talking with Kelly this morning.
781
00:46:50,070 --> 00:46:53,590
I'm talking about, well, what's the notable stuff from baptism and the brunch.
782
00:46:53,670 --> 00:46:54,710
He's like, well, you made me cry.
783
00:46:54,810 --> 00:46:57,990
And I'm like, at first I'm like, but she did.
784
00:46:58,170 --> 00:46:58,390
Yeah.
785
00:46:58,570 --> 00:47:03,030
So what got her, which I might, I'm like, okay, that's a win.
786
00:47:03,430 --> 00:47:14,350
What got her to crying was there was this thing that I found and it's a company called Wonderbly, Wonderbly, Wonderbly or Wonderly, something like that.
787
00:47:14,450 --> 00:47:24,070
I will put, I'll put a link, I'll put a link in the description of the, of the episode and they do custom books for different life events.
788
00:47:24,130 --> 00:47:30,050
And there was one for a first mother's day with a mother and daughter.
789
00:47:30,130 --> 00:47:32,130
And well, and you can customize it, right?
790
00:47:32,150 --> 00:47:37,850
So you pick out, you pick out mother, daughter, and then you can customize it.
791
00:47:37,990 --> 00:47:41,630
So the characters in the book shapes and even look.
792
00:47:42,190 --> 00:47:42,290
Yeah.
793
00:47:42,290 --> 00:47:47,230
So you can pick dark hair and glasses and ponytail and no tan.
794
00:47:48,370 --> 00:47:48,850
Yeah.
795
00:47:49,250 --> 00:47:52,290
And it's not super detailed, but it was enough.
796
00:47:52,570 --> 00:47:53,050
Yeah.
797
00:47:53,050 --> 00:47:53,610
You could do it.
798
00:47:53,770 --> 00:48:00,330
And then if you want to, you can write specifically what you would like on a particular page, like an inscription.
799
00:48:00,570 --> 00:48:04,390
So I did that in the beginning, but it was a cute little book now.
800
00:48:04,590 --> 00:48:07,910
And I thought it was kind of a 50, 50 shot.
801
00:48:07,990 --> 00:48:12,110
Either she was going to be very touched and at what she was, or she's going to think it was hokey.
802
00:48:12,470 --> 00:48:16,330
If you told me what you did, I would have told you without that.
803
00:48:16,450 --> 00:48:19,870
It's going to be the one and only thing that makes me the thing.
804
00:48:20,390 --> 00:48:23,630
So she really, she did really like that.
805
00:48:23,710 --> 00:48:25,830
And of course my sister did a nice job of wrapping.
806
00:48:26,150 --> 00:48:32,410
And then the other thing was I wanted to get her some kind of jewelry, first child, all that.
807
00:48:32,650 --> 00:48:35,210
So baby Josie's birthstone is aquamarine.
808
00:48:35,310 --> 00:48:40,470
So I did a bunch of searches and I found there's a company called Angara or Angara, A-N-G-A-R-A.
809
00:48:40,530 --> 00:48:40,950
We'll have that.
810
00:48:43,210 --> 00:48:53,450
Beautiful stuff unbeknownst to me, but my brother-in-law had bought a couple of pieces of jewelry or at least one for my sister from, from them.
811
00:48:53,550 --> 00:48:54,130
That's cool.
812
00:48:54,330 --> 00:48:58,750
So I found it was a nice teardrop pendant on a chain.
813
00:48:59,430 --> 00:48:59,810
Very pretty.
814
00:49:00,290 --> 00:49:04,370
And you could pick like a, whatever size stone and whatever clarity.
815
00:49:04,710 --> 00:49:05,510
So I picked it out.
816
00:49:05,710 --> 00:49:07,130
I was very proud of my selection.
817
00:49:07,290 --> 00:49:19,410
So I, I had taken a, I took a screenshot and I texted it to my sister, who is a jewelry person and to get her, she thought it was nice and all that.
818
00:49:19,670 --> 00:49:28,510
Now, of course that screenshot then resides in my phone and among all the other dozens of pictures of baby Josie.
819
00:49:29,830 --> 00:49:39,770
And so at one point as we do, I cast photographs from my phone to the screen, to the television screen in our green room.
820
00:49:39,770 --> 00:49:49,050
And we're looking at pictures and we're flipping through and all of a sudden it's Josie, Josie, Josie, Watson pendant on the screen.
821
00:49:49,450 --> 00:49:52,270
And Kelly's like, that's pretty.
822
00:49:52,830 --> 00:49:52,930
Wow.
823
00:49:53,070 --> 00:49:56,290
And I'm like, yeah, I thought quickly.
824
00:49:56,530 --> 00:50:04,410
And I'm like, my sister has been sending me pictures, thinks I need to buy you something, some kind of jewelry for, because, because of the baby.
825
00:50:04,410 --> 00:50:11,990
And she's been sending me pictures and I just, so, so I tried to play it off and I'm thinking there's no way she, she must know.
826
00:50:12,650 --> 00:50:20,110
But so then to really, really lay it on thick, I tell my sister, okay, here's what happened.
827
00:50:20,190 --> 00:50:21,210
I tell her what happened.
828
00:50:22,110 --> 00:50:29,270
You got to text and start, start looking things off and texting to them, to me randomly.
829
00:50:29,750 --> 00:50:30,550
That's funny.
830
00:50:30,690 --> 00:50:32,090
And so then I can play it.
831
00:50:32,230 --> 00:50:34,930
I'd say, see, yeah, she's still sending it.
832
00:50:34,930 --> 00:50:35,630
It worked.
833
00:50:35,990 --> 00:50:44,950
I think we'll have to ask and see if she really knew it was because at least it took her off the initial, it threw her off the scent a little.
834
00:50:45,870 --> 00:50:46,590
Oh, wait a minute.
835
00:50:46,690 --> 00:50:51,190
Maybe he, but I was like, it was per one time we were literally eating dinner.
836
00:50:51,270 --> 00:50:52,150
My phone goes off.
837
00:50:52,290 --> 00:50:56,610
I, I look, I'm like, see, I'm telling you, she won't leave me alone.
838
00:50:57,290 --> 00:51:03,470
So I think for you to even think of that, but the other, the other problem is dangerous.
839
00:51:03,530 --> 00:51:04,090
You know that, right?
840
00:51:04,150 --> 00:51:04,450
Yes.
841
00:51:04,650 --> 00:51:05,010
Yeah.
842
00:51:05,010 --> 00:51:10,270
If you could think that quickly and stuff like that, I would be scared a little bit.
843
00:51:10,610 --> 00:51:13,170
You're going to show me, is this real Frank?
844
00:51:13,170 --> 00:51:14,270
No, it is.
845
00:51:14,430 --> 00:51:18,610
So anyway, because I ordered it online, we don't have cable.
846
00:51:18,790 --> 00:51:19,770
We have YouTube TV.
847
00:51:20,170 --> 00:51:20,270
Okay.
848
00:51:20,770 --> 00:51:22,530
Well, YouTube TV connected to Google.
849
00:51:22,570 --> 00:51:23,750
That's how I search for everything.
850
00:51:23,850 --> 00:51:28,470
And it pipes special commercials to you based on what you search on.
851
00:51:28,890 --> 00:51:29,370
Right.
852
00:51:29,450 --> 00:51:35,710
So like I get commercials for like guitars, like it's like commercials, no other person would see.
853
00:51:36,650 --> 00:51:44,490
And so since I went to their website every day, we'll be watching the news and it'll be there's a commercial from Angara.
854
00:51:44,930 --> 00:51:47,870
Oh, like every, I'm like, Oh, come on, you're killing me.
855
00:51:48,290 --> 00:51:48,870
That's funny.
856
00:51:49,130 --> 00:51:49,390
Yeah.
857
00:51:49,570 --> 00:51:53,350
So, but I, I think she was still, she probably expected it.
858
00:51:53,710 --> 00:52:04,170
Well, she probably suspected some jewelry, but I think, I think you took her off the scent of what but she does seem to like the, the pendant as well.
859
00:52:04,190 --> 00:52:06,230
So I was, I was happy with that.
860
00:52:06,470 --> 00:52:21,590
And what, what I think was equally funny was one of the things that my sister loves about that company is they, in the box that the jewelry comes in, they build in an led light to make it sparkle when you open it up.
861
00:52:22,570 --> 00:52:27,970
Now the battery in hers that my brother-in-law has given her has since died.
862
00:52:28,170 --> 00:52:31,350
So she's like, like, if you're not going to use the box, I'll test.
863
00:52:31,450 --> 00:52:32,730
She's been vying for the boxes.
864
00:52:33,190 --> 00:52:38,830
So I thought I'm going to find a way to change the battery in her box just because she did a good job.
865
00:52:40,050 --> 00:52:46,670
Every, every day she's like, for that battery to die, what are you doing with it?
866
00:52:47,950 --> 00:52:50,310
How many times, is it like a refrigerator?
867
00:52:50,570 --> 00:52:51,350
What are you doing over here?
868
00:52:51,350 --> 00:52:52,290
She's peeking at it.
869
00:52:52,390 --> 00:52:52,930
Everyone's in awe.
870
00:52:53,090 --> 00:52:54,150
Look at putting it back in.
871
00:52:54,170 --> 00:52:55,770
Just put it back, playing the game.
872
00:52:55,950 --> 00:52:57,190
Oh, surprise.
873
00:52:57,530 --> 00:52:58,290
Look how it sparkles.
874
00:52:58,310 --> 00:52:59,150
I know she's listening.
875
00:52:59,390 --> 00:53:00,370
Stop opening that.
876
00:53:02,150 --> 00:53:03,270
Just close it.
877
00:53:03,510 --> 00:53:04,010
Close it.
878
00:53:04,010 --> 00:53:04,790
Save it for special.
879
00:53:05,050 --> 00:53:05,150
Walk away.
880
00:53:05,250 --> 00:53:06,790
Save it for special occasions.
881
00:53:06,990 --> 00:53:07,590
Special days.
882
00:53:07,650 --> 00:53:08,210
That's funny.
883
00:53:08,210 --> 00:53:08,670
That's funny.
884
00:53:08,890 --> 00:53:09,910
But it was a beautiful day.
885
00:53:09,930 --> 00:53:10,190
Yes.
886
00:53:10,730 --> 00:53:14,910
Weather-wise it was sunny and nice and we had a nice, nice meal afterwards.
887
00:53:14,970 --> 00:53:16,030
And it was on Mother's Day.
888
00:53:16,130 --> 00:53:18,010
And on Mother's Day, which was nice.
889
00:53:18,150 --> 00:53:21,370
So yeah, I thought it was a wonderful day all the way around.
890
00:53:21,470 --> 00:53:21,570
Yeah.
891
00:53:21,850 --> 00:53:25,750
And, and then we had our follow-up just today.
892
00:53:25,910 --> 00:53:26,230
Oh.
893
00:53:27,010 --> 00:53:28,890
Because we couldn't do the vaccinations.
894
00:53:29,310 --> 00:53:29,670
Right.
895
00:53:30,450 --> 00:53:31,570
Because of the sniffles.
896
00:53:31,810 --> 00:53:32,090
The sniffies.
897
00:53:32,170 --> 00:53:36,150
We went back earlier today and we had our first vaccinations.
898
00:53:36,150 --> 00:53:39,070
So it was three, three vaccinations.
899
00:53:39,690 --> 00:53:44,630
So one was oral and then one in each leg.
900
00:53:44,890 --> 00:53:45,370
Shots.
901
00:53:46,070 --> 00:53:51,490
Now, so the three are, so this is one, there's a series, there's a ton of vaccinations.
902
00:53:51,870 --> 00:53:53,450
There's all kinds of stuff to read.
903
00:53:53,870 --> 00:53:54,010
Yeah.
904
00:53:54,110 --> 00:53:57,270
Some of it I'm uncomfortable with, but generally.
905
00:53:57,470 --> 00:53:59,530
Of what they could, reactions.
906
00:53:59,770 --> 00:54:08,090
Just some, like, I feel like there are certain ones that I just feel like we have so many in the United States.
907
00:54:08,390 --> 00:54:10,730
And for some that I just think it's ridiculous.
908
00:54:11,590 --> 00:54:13,330
Now there is a chicken pox.
909
00:54:13,690 --> 00:54:15,210
Like you had chicken pox.
910
00:54:15,290 --> 00:54:15,650
Sure.
911
00:54:15,830 --> 00:54:16,630
I had chicken pox.
912
00:54:16,750 --> 00:54:17,750
Everybody had this guy right here.
913
00:54:17,810 --> 00:54:18,790
We would have parties.
914
00:54:19,430 --> 00:54:19,830
Right.
915
00:54:19,990 --> 00:54:23,810
If we didn't have them, we would get together and get it right.
916
00:54:23,950 --> 00:54:24,610
Get your kids together.
917
00:54:24,690 --> 00:54:25,070
That's what it was.
918
00:54:25,210 --> 00:54:26,150
That's what happened to me.
919
00:54:26,270 --> 00:54:27,790
The kid down the street got it.
920
00:54:28,050 --> 00:54:30,130
They let everybody know from the school.
921
00:54:30,250 --> 00:54:32,290
I got to go to a party with that kid.
922
00:54:32,290 --> 00:54:32,830
Get it.
923
00:54:32,990 --> 00:54:37,490
And yeah, you get it and you get out of the way and it's, and it's done now.
924
00:54:37,590 --> 00:54:39,050
Then they come out with the vaccine.
925
00:54:39,170 --> 00:54:39,370
Right.
926
00:54:39,750 --> 00:54:41,130
And I'm like, well, why do you need a vaccine?
927
00:54:41,250 --> 00:54:42,310
The kid's just going to get it.
928
00:54:42,430 --> 00:54:48,430
Well, now you have to get the vaccine because if you don't get the vaccine, so few kids get it.
929
00:54:48,610 --> 00:54:50,890
You get it when you're older and then it's dangerous.
930
00:54:50,950 --> 00:54:51,850
It's shingles.
931
00:54:52,050 --> 00:54:52,390
Yeah.
932
00:54:52,690 --> 00:54:52,950
Yeah.
933
00:54:53,010 --> 00:54:57,070
So, well, or if you get it as a child is bad.
934
00:54:57,270 --> 00:55:01,510
So there's just, there's a lot to it and there's a tremendous amount of reading and information.
935
00:55:02,430 --> 00:55:10,690
But as is often the case, our pediatrician, if you don't sign up to take every one of them, they won't see you.
936
00:55:11,310 --> 00:55:13,250
You can't go there or you can't go to school.
937
00:55:15,090 --> 00:55:17,450
You gotta have them or you're ain't good.
938
00:55:17,710 --> 00:55:17,810
Yeah.
939
00:55:18,230 --> 00:55:25,490
So, but anyway, so the, so the three today are Vaxellus, Prevnar 13 and Rotavirus.
940
00:55:26,050 --> 00:55:31,830
So Vaxellus is, it is actually six vaccines in one.
941
00:55:31,950 --> 00:55:37,350
So it's diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, hepatitis, and some others.
942
00:55:37,710 --> 00:55:38,930
Was that the oral one or?
943
00:55:39,630 --> 00:55:40,490
I'm not sure.
944
00:55:40,590 --> 00:55:40,930
You're not sure.
945
00:55:41,170 --> 00:55:41,330
Okay.
946
00:55:41,570 --> 00:55:42,570
Prevnar 13.
947
00:55:42,710 --> 00:55:44,230
It sounds like a planet in Star Trek.
948
00:55:45,050 --> 00:55:48,470
Prevnar 13 covers 13 types of pneumonia.
949
00:55:48,710 --> 00:55:51,410
And then Rotavirus is the one that gives you the scoots.
950
00:55:52,350 --> 00:55:55,570
But it's very, it's a dangerous one for, for little kids.
951
00:55:55,690 --> 00:55:56,590
So they got that.
952
00:55:56,670 --> 00:55:58,810
So there was the three, the oral one.
953
00:55:58,930 --> 00:56:02,230
She was like, didn't like that.
954
00:56:02,250 --> 00:56:03,130
I need to chase her dad.
955
00:56:03,390 --> 00:56:03,590
Now.
956
00:56:03,630 --> 00:56:07,370
And it was what now I thought it was going to be worse with the shots.
957
00:56:08,310 --> 00:56:15,410
It was definitely a kind of crying that I have not heard of until now, but I feel like she handled it.
958
00:56:15,830 --> 00:56:16,810
Well, it doesn't last long.
959
00:56:17,170 --> 00:56:18,430
It didn't last too long.
960
00:56:18,750 --> 00:56:23,650
And it's maybe afterwards, you know, they leave you in the rooms and, and Kelly was going to feed.
961
00:56:24,390 --> 00:56:28,690
And I was like, well, that wasn't, it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.
962
00:56:28,730 --> 00:56:30,670
It looks at me like I'm a monster.
963
00:56:30,730 --> 00:56:32,250
She's like, it wasn't.
964
00:56:32,270 --> 00:56:40,890
And I'm like, well, no, like I, I was, all you have to say is I expected just honestly, honestly, I'm thinking don't cry.
965
00:56:41,210 --> 00:56:41,750
I cried.
966
00:56:41,890 --> 00:56:42,510
I tear up.
967
00:56:42,550 --> 00:56:44,290
I was, that's, I was worried.
968
00:56:44,390 --> 00:56:45,070
I was going to cry.
969
00:56:45,410 --> 00:56:47,650
She, I think handled it like a champ.
970
00:56:47,730 --> 00:56:49,250
It was also like a delayed reaction.
971
00:56:49,310 --> 00:56:53,190
I thought as soon as the needle hit her, now you say that, that's true.
972
00:56:53,310 --> 00:56:58,830
They're like, what just figured out like that just happened.
973
00:56:58,990 --> 00:56:59,850
You're absolutely right.
974
00:56:59,850 --> 00:57:00,890
I do remember that.
975
00:57:00,890 --> 00:57:03,710
It's like, uh, did it, did, did, did the wallet?
976
00:57:04,010 --> 00:57:04,190
Yeah.
977
00:57:04,230 --> 00:57:04,450
Yeah.
978
00:57:04,470 --> 00:57:05,650
So checkup was fine.
979
00:57:05,730 --> 00:57:06,830
We have a new weight.
980
00:57:07,810 --> 00:57:09,030
Ooh, no, no.
981
00:57:09,050 --> 00:57:14,970
Last time 10 pounds official last month, the last one was 10 pounds, five ounces, I think.
982
00:57:15,030 --> 00:57:16,550
And it was a couple of weeks ago.
983
00:57:16,610 --> 00:57:17,410
Have we hit 11?
984
00:57:17,570 --> 00:57:19,090
I thought we were going to be there.
985
00:57:19,250 --> 00:57:32,230
So we're, we're, we're at, uh, we're at 10 pounds, 10 ounces, 10 pounds, 15 and a half, 10 pounds, 15 and a half ounces.
986
00:57:32,410 --> 00:57:43,350
That's like if she had had one more boob of feeding, if she didn't have that one day, but yeah, so she's right at 11, right at 11 pounds.
987
00:57:43,410 --> 00:57:47,770
So otherwise good visit, checked her all out, listened to everything.
988
00:57:48,010 --> 00:57:52,890
I really liked that practice and I really like the woman that we're, that that's been working with us, Cheryl.
989
00:57:52,890 --> 00:57:54,870
Uh, I think she's great.
990
00:57:54,990 --> 00:58:00,790
So imagine that place where we, where you go now, imagine my son, Nicholas, still going there.
991
00:58:00,910 --> 00:58:04,710
Cause that's just with the Mickey mouse.
992
00:58:04,930 --> 00:58:07,410
And then my son's like six foot one.
993
00:58:10,290 --> 00:58:13,110
He's just like, dad, can I go to your doctor?
994
00:58:13,370 --> 00:58:15,890
Can I please, can I please go to your doctor now?
995
00:58:16,350 --> 00:58:19,930
And I'm like, whatever, bro, they're not going to give you a lollipop.
996
00:58:22,290 --> 00:58:23,750
Shut up and hop up on the table.
997
00:58:24,870 --> 00:58:26,770
So that's funny.
998
00:58:27,030 --> 00:58:34,150
I know you, you don't know what we're laughing about, but it's, it's the, yeah, it's an adorable practice, but it's like bluey is playing.
999
00:58:34,230 --> 00:58:37,410
It's like chalkboard and everything's black and white and red.
1000
00:58:37,630 --> 00:58:39,150
All Disney characters.
1001
00:58:39,950 --> 00:58:43,190
It's can't picture it.
1002
00:58:43,870 --> 00:58:44,610
Everyone's one.
1003
00:58:44,710 --> 00:58:46,710
Sometimes when we're there, there'll be like a nine year old.
1004
00:58:46,710 --> 00:58:49,590
They look like, come on, why am I here?
1005
00:58:49,910 --> 00:58:50,350
Yeah.
1006
00:58:50,690 --> 00:58:53,350
But that was, so that was, that was earlier today.
1007
00:58:53,430 --> 00:58:54,830
But yeah, so we've had lots of things.
1008
00:58:54,890 --> 00:59:03,110
The first that I think that I have had that I think are the most interesting, I think some of them are not even first jets.
1009
00:59:03,210 --> 00:59:05,210
They're like, I think they're coming.
1010
00:59:05,870 --> 00:59:08,930
But one of them is we had our first outside tummy time.
1011
00:59:09,230 --> 00:59:12,190
It was a beautiful day outside tummy time on the grass.
1012
00:59:12,290 --> 00:59:16,790
We on the deck brought out a blankie course did a little rolling around out there.
1013
00:59:16,910 --> 00:59:17,290
Fresh air.
1014
00:59:17,490 --> 00:59:24,410
I bring almost every morning now that it's been, we've had some nicer weather, even it's a little chilly yet, but we'll go out just for a little while.
1015
00:59:24,570 --> 00:59:28,490
Let her listen to the birdies, feel the breeze, get some fresh air.
1016
00:59:28,570 --> 00:59:29,890
But yeah, we had outside tummy time.
1017
00:59:31,250 --> 00:59:35,550
She's definitely already mastering being flirtatious.
1018
00:59:36,350 --> 00:59:44,250
She gives, she knows how she just does these little help head tilts and she, she uses her eyes effectively.
1019
00:59:44,730 --> 00:59:51,150
And this is the thing that I think is not a first yet, but I told Kelly this, and I do think this is what's happening.
1020
00:59:51,310 --> 00:59:58,290
I'll be talking to her being goofy and she'll just look up and to the left like this and she's smiling.
1021
00:59:58,470 --> 01:00:01,670
But I think what she's doing is it's the beginning of an eye roll.
1022
01:00:02,050 --> 01:00:10,950
I think she's getting ready to be like, Oh my God, she's, she's, I think she's developing the, Oh my God, this is my father.
1023
01:00:12,150 --> 01:00:12,630
Yeah.
1024
01:00:12,630 --> 01:00:14,890
So I think she's, she's working on her eye roll.
1025
01:00:15,430 --> 01:00:22,530
It'll be like, I'm sure in a, by like six months, it'll be like Tina Fey quality, like super eye roll.
1026
01:00:22,750 --> 01:00:25,390
Is there any better thing than a baby smiling?
1027
01:00:25,390 --> 01:00:28,450
My God, I think that'll end any war.
1028
01:00:28,770 --> 01:00:30,910
It's just fight.
1029
01:00:31,030 --> 01:00:37,150
It's impossible to appreciate the biological component of being father.
1030
01:00:37,290 --> 01:00:41,570
I know I would never have thought that there was anything like that.
1031
01:00:41,650 --> 01:00:42,630
Like for a woman, sure.
1032
01:00:42,710 --> 01:00:55,890
And there's all kinds of things happening, but there's no doubt that that is somehow triggers the biggest dopamine Oh, it has to, in your brain of anything without, without some kind of injection.
1033
01:00:57,090 --> 01:00:57,490
Absolutely.
1034
01:00:58,410 --> 01:00:59,850
Just light up.
1035
01:00:59,930 --> 01:01:01,290
You can't help but light up.
1036
01:01:01,490 --> 01:01:03,870
You can be the strongest meanest.
1037
01:01:03,970 --> 01:01:05,130
I don't care what you are.
1038
01:01:05,250 --> 01:01:10,010
And that little thing comes at you with a smile and you're like, you can't help it.
1039
01:01:10,070 --> 01:01:10,650
Oh my God.
1040
01:01:10,650 --> 01:01:13,490
You just can't help power.
1041
01:01:13,670 --> 01:01:14,470
So much power.
1042
01:01:14,630 --> 01:01:14,970
It is.
1043
01:01:15,070 --> 01:01:15,670
It is.
1044
01:01:15,770 --> 01:01:16,770
It is a lot of power.
1045
01:01:17,490 --> 01:01:17,650
Okay.
1046
01:01:17,770 --> 01:01:20,130
So that, that is a week, two weeks.
1047
01:01:20,290 --> 01:01:20,390
Yeah.
1048
01:01:20,390 --> 01:01:21,150
A couple of weeks.
1049
01:01:21,150 --> 01:01:22,190
We had a lot happen.
1050
01:01:22,310 --> 01:01:24,170
I'm looking forward to now nicer weather.
1051
01:01:24,350 --> 01:01:24,710
Yeah.
1052
01:01:24,790 --> 01:01:31,690
We got her a little, uh, life preserver for being out on the boat and some sun girl.
1053
01:01:32,390 --> 01:01:32,790
Yup.
1054
01:01:32,810 --> 01:01:38,390
We're going to be, we're going to be a little be with her shades and putting on her coated.
1055
01:01:38,570 --> 01:01:38,930
Yeah.
1056
01:01:39,050 --> 01:01:42,370
We're coated in SPF 20,000.
1057
01:01:42,630 --> 01:01:43,990
It's like, is that concrete?
1058
01:01:43,990 --> 01:01:44,630
What is it?
1059
01:01:44,770 --> 01:01:45,690
What are you putting on her?
1060
01:01:45,950 --> 01:01:50,010
Anyway, but thank you for once again, making it to the end.
1061
01:01:50,430 --> 01:01:54,930
And, uh, we will be given more updates in a couple of weeks.
1062
01:01:55,230 --> 01:01:56,270
Wait for number 26.
1063
01:01:56,790 --> 01:02:02,050
The excitement of 26 is going to be, it'll be a whole new level level.
1064
01:02:03,470 --> 01:02:04,610
All right guys.
1065
01:02:04,670 --> 01:02:04,950
Thanks.
1066
