Just had my second kid. Skateboarding is a distant memory at the moment what with the weather and babys.
Congrats Spike!
I've got a 9 month old with a recently diagnosed genetic disorder and some nasty weather to deal with myself. I try and make it out when I can, but it's been really really tough lately. Hang in there, you'll get back in the saddle soon enough!
fuck Satchel, that's gotta be super tough. hope everything turns out good for you.
Spike: congrats!
as for me, my second son is now 16 months. it's a blast seeing them play together but having more than one than kid really takes a dent out of your skating/personal time!
My first son is 5 and a half, and not too interested in skating, but maybe in a few years.........we'll see! I hope I get to do sessions with both of them.
Satchel, that sounds tough. Good thing is that its been discovered pretty early on. Gives you more time to adjust and get your head around the "problem". My oldest is highly allergic to milk and eggs so we have to be heavily aware of all that he eats. He is 4 now so going to nursery and other kids houses and its pretty worrying when you are relying on other people to deal with a possible anaphylactic shock. Just got to remember to support each other through the tough times, when it comes to kids you tend to forget about each other sometimes.
Paraquat, best thing to do is go with what you feel is best. You wont break it but common sense in parenting is a must. Enjoy the crazy hormones.
Frenchie, My oldest loves watching skate vids and playing with, not on, his setup. I'm counting on him to get skating so I can take him out for a roll.
