Nikko’s life
Two kids under two
Difficult? Yes and no
Picking up after a toddler while pregnant is hard
Sleep in the first month is difficult
Potty training with two kids is crappy (lol)
Julia duct tapes her babies to keep diapers on at night. (just the diaper though)
Don’t worry, the duct tape was pretty
How well does the toddler eat
Eats what parents eat
Has many chompers
Young children and holidays
Taking pictures and mailing them to relatives
Easter egg hunts this year
The blacks stole all the easter eggs
It’s always the mestizos and black kids that are not doing the right thing in public
It’s easy to redpill kids because they naturally notice these discrepancies
Minority mothers are usually inattentive
3. Grocery shopping with two young kids is hard
Have to avoid the things that distract the kids
4. Women smoking
Why is this a gendered topic?
Smoking in general is gross and unhealthy
Neither ladylike or gentlemanlike
Makes you smell bad
Cigars and pipe tobacco smoking is not as bad because
Less chemicals
You don’t inhale it
Flavored tobacco and some cigars aren’t as bad for women
Less trashy and more classy
Julia likes her cherry tobacco
Cigarettes are definitely the nastiest
Keep it away from the children
You can tell a woman that has smoked for a long time
Can have lifelong effects: dementia, cancer, premature aging
Second hand smoke
Chemicals stick to skin, hair, and clothes
Can harm babies
Causes asthma in children
BEES
Nikko keeps bees and has tons of honey
Is it difficult?
Scary at first (DUH)
Everyone does it differently
Different sizes of boxes, putting hive on ground or stand, what kind of bees
Honeybees will travel up to 5 miles to pollinate ‘
Professional pollination is a huge business
Different plants, different seasons all over the country
New hive must be out of that 5 mile radius
Bees do choreographed dances to explain to others how to get pollen
HOW ABOUT THOSE STINGS
Nikko gets stung when harvesting honey (through gloves)
Drones (males) are lazy bees and do nothing
They’re just there to mate
Perfect NEET position
Male bees can be harmful to the hife if they collect mites
This sounds kind of like feminism
Bees only live about a month
Wax comes from young bees
Bees can only fly for about 2-3 weeks before their wings become too damaged
Advice to anyone that wants to become a beekeeper
Be good to your neighbors
Establish where to put a water feature
If not, they’ll roam around
Need about a gallon per day
First honey harvest
Late summer
You have to leave them about 100 pounds of honey to eat during the winter
Swarm
Bees ran out of room
Queen is getting older and lays new queens
Leave the hive and let one child take over
Could split the hive
Environmental reasons
Open the hive as little as possible
Opening the hive causes a lot of them to kill themselves protecting the hive
Disrupts the pollen
The queen is a Kardashian bee because she got a donk
Kids under 1 can’t have raw honey
Could get botulism, potentially fatal
Local honey can help you combat local allergies
Someone please help Julia with bitcoin
Rachels new segment about Biblical ladies
Book of Ruth is between Samuel and Book of the Judges
Very early israelite history
They move to Moab
Moabites are not good people
False gods
Child sacrifice
Ruth is one of two women in Jesus’s lineage not of Jewish ascent
Ruth is super loyal
Wants to stay with her mother in law and go to Israel to serve God
Loyal to her married family even after the death of her husband
She saw something better and more hopeful in the god of Israel
Thus ends Ruth Part 1
Evelyn and Rachel Q&A
How long to get pregnant with first baby
Julia- 1st was a surprise, with second child, pregnant in first month
Haley- pregnant three months after taking off birth control
Nikko- got off birth control in summer, pregnant in december
The tearing of the thing between the bum and vajayjay
You’re in so much pain that you don’t really feel it
At least they’ll stitch you up and it’ll heal completely!
C-sections and formula feeding
`doing things the not natural way is okay when it’s not your choice
Childbirth is difficult and painful, modern science and c-sections save lives
Causes of emergency c-sections
Baby not facing the right way
Cord wrapped around the throat
Having to formula feed:
The baby wouldn’t latch
Breast disease…being allergic to own milk? Can’t remember the name
Need more information on breastfeeding
Lactation consultant
Mother, aunt, sister, grandmother etc. to show a new mom what to do
Similac organic is good
Get a lactation consultant!
Roadtrips
Important part of childhood
Do people have enough vacation time?
Time for bonding and good memories
Seeing lots of beautiful places
Sense of history, geography, time and place
father/daughter bonding /mother/son bonding
Men do need to learn how to feed themselves
Teach your son to cook something
Let kids take turns cooking dinner?
Dad and daughter fishing
Boys and girls can garden
Dedicate different hobbies to each child
Make your kid feel special
One on one bonding is very important
Make sure that your sons know how to take care of themselves so that they aren’t at a disadvantage as adults
Does your husband ever see you as truly sexy after having a baby?
Some women don’t expect to have sex for the first year
“Maybe it’s because he doesn’t respect you because you’re not a real mom” DAMN GIRL ooshhh #triggered
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2074238/Does-husband-truly-sexy-having-baby.html———–> the source of the trigger
Most selfish reasons not to have children; have perfect boobs, perfect ladybits, coming first place all the time
It’s pounded into the heads of women
Health of the relationship of a couple after a baby is indicative of the health of the relationship before the baby
Having a baby should only strengthen the marriage
