Official NT dad thread: can the dads get love

Ya I'm trying to adjust, it's tough.
I can't do the gym right after work. I go home and see my girls first. After I try but sometimes I get home and start doing things for her and there goes my gym time. Still trying to find that balance.
You'll find your balance. All this is new to you and it'll take time to adjust. 

My daughter is 13 months old and I'm still learning.

You'll find a way to get your 'me' time...

Prison workout.

I set aside about 10 minutes each day to do pushups & sit-ups with my son. He loves watching me and counting in a silly voice and it gives me a reason to get back in shape because carrying him around all the time is exhausting when your muscles have atrophied!

This sounds like a great idea. I can still put daddy time in and get some me time. Baby girl is at 15 lbs now and carrying her with 1 arm isn't as easy anymore.

Burpees and mountain climbers it is.

We finally took them home today and it looks like my boy is the type that needs to be held all the time, while my girl is just chillin'. Had to take photos of some props earlier holding my little man in one arm while I let the wife rest up, so I'm going to start having to get creative trying to juggle three kids while I continue to do what I do.

I'm posting this at 1:30am because I've been playing musical crib with these three as when one stops crying, the other one begins. Hopefully they sleep soon because I'm trying to play this Scarif DLC on Battlefront :lol:

Congrats man :nthat:...

We thought yesterday was the day, but nope :lol:...

They'll come out when they're damn ready :lol:

My first daughter took like 2.5 hours to come out. My wife couldn't have cold cuts while pregnant so she really wanted a fresh sub to be her first meal after delivering. So right before I followed them into the delivery room, I texted my sis for our sandwich orders and prepared to wait about 2 hours. That was 12:04pm

I walk in the delivery room and then bam!, nurse just pulls out a baby real quick and some nurse yelled out 12:06pm. Blew me away :lol: Like I said, second one came out some time later and I was happy the whole delivery time only took less than a half hour this time.

If you think the first one was hard.

1 kid = hard
2 kids = 5x harder

My kids are exactly 2 years apart, his terrible twos started when my daughter was born.
