Okay, since I'm officially under house arrest and my car keys have been stolen (not like I can fit behind the wheel anymore anyway), I need some help.

Netflix suggestions. I'm going cross-eyed reading and movement isn't all that great an idea, so I need something to rot my brain. Nothing overly long, I've got two months before free time will be a long forgotten memory, but I need some stuff to watch.

	I meant the dogs. Hawkeye is good at getting crumbs. If you wait for 'normal', you'll never get a vacation. But you're not allowed to go anywhere until after the baby is born. But yes, I haven't seen them in a few weeks, I'm sure they need work. I'm pretty much ready whenever. I'm not the one with a business. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

He makes a good floor cleaner, I'll say that much. I'm grateful that...cats are just low maintenance, and lazy.

There was something close to normal once, but no, I'm not going anywhere until Niko makes his way into the world. Killian and I can help with household chores to give you two parents a chance to nap once he's here.

As for the pampering, I'll aim for early next week? I'll text you.

	You know our kid is just going to collect animals everywhere he goes if we don't stop this soon. I'm planning on bribing everyone to take turns. I already know I can ensnare Killian with his godson, you're all just making it easy. Sounds great. I don't think my toes will fall off from lack of care by then. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Neal was to sort of blame for this one, and Henry sealed the deal by naming her. Must be a Cassidy thing. It won't take much, promise. Niko might actually be the first baby the pirate's held too. His reaction to baby things will be priceless. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Well, I did send Neal with Henry to get one dog. And they came home with two, so I think it is.

You're absolutely waiting to see him melt, aren't you? Have to admit, I'm curious too. You're sort of the only one out of the four of us that has sort of done this before, and that's from the dreams. I have vague dream memories of fake-raising Henry, but ... yeah. You're kind of the mascot for this.

	Suckers, the both of them. I tried gloss over all the tough times when it came to those fake-memories. Infancy's hard. All that crying, often for now reason, and the fragility. Ear infections, teething. Doing it by yourself is hard enough, but...you've got support. People to help with your sanity. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think we're just as bad for agreeing to it. Great because you totally just freaked me out a little right there. Thank God Lina is doing this first, I can take some notes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

There were a couple times when Henry would cry for nothing, and I'd cry with him. Then we'd be so exhausted from crying that'd we fall asleep. I figured you might prefer the honesty over the sugarcoating - much less cruel when reality sets in.

But it'll be fine, I promise. Wait until the baby reaches the giggling stage and smiles a lot, and you'll forget about the stress.

	At least there was sleep. I'm hoping there might be some sleep soon. Not just uncomfortable sleep. I have no idea how you did this by yourself, jeez, hat's off to that. This is why all the friends and buttering them up for babysitting, so that the sanity remains until the giggling stage. (Reply to this) (Parent)
