October 26, 2022 18. We're Not Really Strangers + Hand Foot & Mouth Disease...
Here's our promise that we will not be drinking on the podcast every week... BUT we have had a WEEEEEEK. Lennox got hand, foot, & mouth disease. He hasn't been able to go to daycare. Amanda had to reschedule all work tings. And it was Friday when we recorded — so we figured what better way to spend the first day of our weekend than to drink our favorite cocktails, debrief about out week, & play we're not reallly strangers. Let us know what you think about this episode & leave a rating and review if you liked it!

Ok friends, we're getting into it this week on the podcast. Religion, baptizing our son, holidays, our own personal journey's, & our thoughts on it all. This is a topic we feel like every parent has to navigate & we wanted to shed some light on the gray area, not having it all figured out, & helping you own the journey that you're on. Disclaimer: we love & respect your religion/individual spiritual journey and hope you will respect ours, too. Aka, don't slide in our DM's asking us to join your church. Lol.
