On January 5th of this year I gave birth to our second baby boy, Jacob Ryan Buol. He is a beautiful, sweet healthy baby and we are so proud of him. However, I was not fully prepared for how drastically things would change going from one child to two. Just running to the store has become ten times harder! When Bailey was a baby and still in his baby car seat I could still go grocery shopping. Now, Bailey sits in the front and the car seat takes up the whole basket! So unless I am only going for a few things there is no point.
At first, my mother-in-law was not comfortable taking both boys at the same time. She has her own son (he is 24 but has a severe form of autism) and it was like taking care of three children all at once. So, I started taking Jacob to work with me. He sits in classes with me, works on the computer with me, and sits by my desk while I work. I am so grateful that I have the kind of job (and a great office) that allows me to do this. I love my kids so much which is why they always come first. However, I am determined to get my real estate career back up and running. And if I have to do it with a baby in my arms, then so be it!
