Congrats mate.
Congrats to all. Hope she will be home soon
Cheers lads, tipping up shortly to see the wee one, only allowed in for 15 mins and not allowed to pick her up, which I have to say is hard . Hopefully today will be the end of that. Herself is coming out for a coffee I think so that will be good for her. Thanks for all the messages
Best to you all, a father’s best moment, holding the precious fir the first time— never leaves the soul
Congratulations me aul pal. Hope everyone is doing well.
Screaming and crying going on here … christ above. And the little one is upset also… she caught her little finger in the (french) doors … they were slightly open and she was trying to pull it open with her finger but then started leaning on it also, squashing her own little finger… Daddy is getting the blame from both parties for some bizarre reason, despite not being on duty.
This walking business is a fucking disaster.
You may get used to that.
I was putting the young lad into his car seat a few years ago, he was about 3 at the time. As I finished strapping him in and slammed the door closed, he put his hand up and grabbed the outside edge of the roof. I thought the fingers would be chopped off him, but he was grand surprisingly. They have soft little bones thank God. I had nightmares after it.
wait til she starts talking back
The mothers are worse … no one wants to see a kid upset or hurt - but that’s kinda what they do at their age… the drama tho - everything is a near death experience.
I better get used to the word ’ no’ ?
You’ll be grand kid. You are well used to being told what to do.
Is the hoover working okay?
Adversity introduces you to you.
You’ll be fine.
Be ready for the conversation on moving to a bigger place and have a plan ready. One winter in the duplex with a toddler while the elements karma-bash Cork with superstorms will have ye fit to explode. My advice is to start getting a little look in on daft to see what’s about. At least then when she brings it up you’ll be ahead of her and get some brownie points. You may even get a rise in the allowance from Mrs O S.
poor mite
She’ll be grand chief. They’re sturdy as fuck when it comes to knocks and falls.
