One week in and having trouble coming to terms with how much of an adjustment it has been going from one kid to two. My wife and I always swore we wouldn’t let having kids stop us from enjoying our favorite pastimes (like recreational sports, hiking, camping, etc) and tbh we’ve lived up to that pretty well since having our first. But the toddler plus a newborn is just a lot, I find myself wondering how people have more than 2 (or how single parents survive at all.) Tried going to a soccer game yesterday and it was so hard on my wife with me just being gone for 2 hours that I’ve opted out the rest of the season for my other soccer and volleyball teams. I know we’ll get into a flow state eventually and of course it’s all 100% worth it, but I really underestimated the adjustment for sure! (Obvious caveat that I love both my boys and wouldn’t change anything for the world. )

Man I am just transitioning from 0->1 and it’s hard…I can’t imagine 2 rn! Family across the country, partner busier than I am, had to say ‘no’ to opportunities that I know set me back. But I’ve accepted it’s all part of the adjustment and am slowly figuring out how to balance and get to new normal. I naively thought maybe 1->2 could be a little easier once you get the hang of things but looks like I’m wrong 😅
