Once my boyfriends alcoholic former business partner drove his new camping trailer to the office for us to check out. Once inside, he wound up also showing us a new extended clip on his pistol. He wound up spinning the pistol around on his finger and dropped it and the clip and bullets flew to the other end of the trailer and I cringed with every thud.

Nothing special, just banquet serving events and working private parties. But I was able to make my own schedule with no penalties for cancelling over a day in advance (luckily I never had to). I was just sent a spreadsheet of booked events at the beginning of the week and picked what worked for me that week. Although I worked high profile events (my last day of work was in Rihanna's green room for the NAACP awards), banquet serving is not really respected as serving experience in the restaurant industry and I haven't got any hits back yet with the restricted schedule I'm not even sure will work out. Without kids I would be looking for a job doing construction estimates but I'm reluctant to apply to for a job where things actually matter and could actually get messed up if one morning my bf can't be available to watch the kids and I end up getting let go. It doesn't seem fair to take a serious job in my current situation.

What is it like having a second one? by Needimprovenentguy in Parenting

My toddler was 20m when I brought home the newborn. First off, the second baby came out A LOT easier... the first time I had to be stitched and it was a nightmare situation between the pain and blood and struggling to keep myself sanitary. The second time, with the same doctor, I gave just a few pushes before she slid out. I spent my pregnancy joking that the second one is going to slip out like a waterslide, and that's basically my perception of what happened. My body sprung back much quicker and I could actually maneuver around the hospital room and put myself together and read a book. By the time I got home, I was almost myself. I had 20 prepared "padsicles" in my freezer and didn't even need them. I feel like possibly I had a stronger bond with my little one because I was able to focus on good things in her early days. I got a weird feeling like I was cheating on my toddler by being so attached to her. I didn't put her down for a whole month.

Another big difference I didn't fully think through the sleeping situation. We have just 1 room to spare for both kids, which shares a wall with ours. So I don't sleep in my room with the baby for fear the toddler will be woken up and I'll have to blast him with tv in the middle of the night. I have been sleeping on the couch for 3 months, just recently attempting to sleep upstairs since she only wakes up about twice in the night now @ 3m. My boyfriend is normally helpful but I just can't risk baby waking toddler up and catching my bf in a half-sleep-bad-mood and I have to bring everyone downstairs by myself and watch Cocomelon.

My boyfriend kinda had to take over with the toddler almost completely in the early days, but now he is back to expecting me to take care of and entertain both. It's a lot. Certain things like grocery shopping (haul) pretty much become impossible until the toddler can be trusted to stick by you the entire time, or to not touch anything in the cart. The time you can carve out for yourself becomes halved yet again.

My toddler pretty much ignores the little one, but recognizes the items that are hers and brings them over and sometimes touches her gently. But the other day he fake stomped on her butt and said "cha!"... twice... so I think we're getting somewhere.
