Speaker 1 (00:00):
Yeah, they talk better than they These are the radio
blogs on the Fred Show, like we're writing in our diaries,
except we say them aloud. We call them blogs. Paulina,
Yes go.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Thank you so much, dear blog man. My mom she's something, Marta.
My mom is something. I love her so much. She
traveled listening to us right now, live and local. And
the thing about my mom though, is, you know, parents
always say some crazy things. And I think she really
outdid herself yesterday because I was telling her we're on
the phone. She was driving and I was like, you know,

(00:32):
im like it's hard with Gigi, Like my baby is
fourteen months and I hate my parents do that whole
month thing. So I'm sorry. I know that's not cute,
but like she has fourteen months a little bit over
a year, and she is a lot. We're no longer
in like we're gonna sit here fase, you know, we're
gonna just do like, no, we're not sitting anywhere. There's
no sitting to be sacked. Like we are moving everywhere.

(00:55):
And she's a lot. You know, I'm trying to cook
and it's up up and she said a lot of
words too for her age, and she's just like bawling
your eyes out because I'm not paying attention to her.
It's like it's it's getting really hard. And I told
my mom yesterday I needed event because parenting is just
so hard.

Speaker 1 (01:07):
Period.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
But I was like, yeah, it's getting really difficult with her.
I got to like find activities. We got to sign
up to like the park district. We gotta do something.
She has to go to school, maybe go to like
the military, go somewhere somewhere, like some camp like I
don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
In this case.

Speaker 2 (01:22):
No, it's just so hard. Somewhere where she'll go for
like a period of time, read our energy out, get
it out. It's too much for me.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
Warm just kidding whatever.

Speaker 2 (01:38):
I mean, listen. And I said, Mom, it's getting hard,
and she goes, instead of you know, giving support or
things that I need, like at that moment, she goes, Oh, yeah,
she needs a sibling, I said, mother. I thought she
was joking. I said, a sibling. I almost like chair.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
I've never understood that my sister has the same logic,
and I think she's learning the hard way that I'm
not sure that's how that works.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
I don't think that works.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
I don't think you just pop out another kid and
then they just occupy each other. That's just not how
that goes.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
You just gonna like, what feed my other newborn baby?
And Chader and Brazer? No, I agree, no, no, no, no,
I agree, ladies, enough out of you.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Is any chance you'd consider him?

Speaker 2 (02:18):
No? No, I'm trying to plan what I can do
to make sure it will never happen, like I'm yes,
I'm consulting medical professionals, like, what can we do too?

Speaker 1 (02:29):
Pretty? She's gorgeous.

Speaker 2 (02:30):
You can't not give us another pretty baby? Thank you,
thank you.

Speaker 1 (02:33):
You don't have to of course today. No, you don't
have to do that. No pressure, you don't have to
do one.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
No.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
And I don't think it makes life easier. I don't,
I really don't. That's two kids to feed, and well,
when they get older, they'll play with each other, know,
they'll fight.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
With each other exactly, and then I gotta go, you know,
get involved in that. They say that, okay, think about
the kids. I'm a one and done kind of lady.
They say that one kid is a vibe, two kids
is a lifestyle. I don't want a lifestyle. I want
a vibe. I want to vie forever you know how
easy it is to just get Jiji and gold places
and do things. Nothing. Parenting is easy, it's not. It's
the hardest thing I've ever done. But with one, it's

(03:07):
just doable. It's manageable. Like we're good either. I have
our hobby. Grandma's are super involved right now, her her teats,
watching her her aunt. Like we are a village. We
are strong, we are united. I think another baby would
destroy us all, maybe the downfall of me. It would
just be too much. You guys know, I'm kidding. I
just I know I appreciate it because everyone's like, she's
so cute and this isn't mad, And I agree. I

(03:29):
think I made like a good looking So we just
let's just.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Leave it there, because you never know what could happen
the second time. I mean, it could be a disaster,
you know what I say. So let's just you hit
it out of the park the first time, and you
know it's it's requiring a lot of your focus and energy,
and so if you're not compelled to have another one.
I do not believe that it's somehow is easier. I don't.
I just don't buy that. How is that how it

(03:53):
doesn't make any sense. It's more expensive, it's got to
be more stressful, it's more human. It's just I don't know.
I don't I don't get that.

Speaker 2 (04:01):
My best friend she came over and my besties Lucy,
and she has two little ones, the shoe and one
literally like, yeah, so now three of us are in
the house on Saturday, I after everyone left, I was
so overwhelmed and overstimulated. I was like, this is why
one one is good. You guys, I'm still saying, I'm
still here.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
Your mom she's crazy. Yeah, well, because you know, I mean,
she can say that and then she can be helpful,
but then she can go home. Exactly, you know, so
your vote only counts half. Sorry, she gets to sleep
and rest, right, I feel like you don't have to
because she already did it once.

Speaker 2 (04:34):
Yeah, she and this is the thing she did her time,
she did her thing. That's why you know, I'm grateful
that she was in jail, right, Like, I'm so happy
that she's so helpful, but like, exactly, like I can't
be responsible for two.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
I am me and baby, it's to your life without
your sister. You know what that's not about? Idea? I
love I was gonna say that's that's not the example.
That's not the example to use, because I think my
mom can picture that too. Actually, a friend show
