February 13, 2025 Commissary Valentines Day Dinner
Happy Valentine’s Day! 💕 We’re kicking things off with a conversation about our plans, thoughts on the holiday, and how our views on celebrating love evolve throughout a relationship. When is it most important to celebrate? And why does showing up from the beginning matter?
We also dive into the significance of Valentine’s Day for kids—setting the tone early for love, appreciation, and even a little gift-giving. Then, we take a hilarious (and slightly cringe) trip down memory lane, recalling the most delusional things we’ve done in the name of “love.”
Of course, it wouldn’t be a Valentine’s episode without some wild TikToks! We react to clips featuring a woman choosing food over flowers, the discussion on splitting bills when one partner makes significantly more, and more. Plus, our Playlist Playoff gets spicy—this week’s theme? Songs you’d blast on your way to curse out your ex. 🎶💔

February 06, 2025 You got strep in your step!

When kids get sick, everything else takes a backseat. In this episode of Babies Down, Bottles Up, we dive into the chaos of dealing with strep, fevers, and those dreaded stomach bugs. We’re sharing our own war stories—from the struggle of keeping toothbrushes swapped out to the real MVPs of the “sickness survival pack” (hello, Pedialyte and thermometers).

We’ll also get into the must-know home remedies, from Vicks VapoRub to lukewarm baths, and whether essential oils actually do anything. Plus, self-care when you’re running on fumes—how do you stay sane when you and the kids are both down for the count?

Then, the big debate: When is it time to go to the doctor? We’ll talk about navigating medical visits, handling school absences, and the never-ending battle of convincing school officials your kid isn’t faking it.

If you’ve ever been stuck in the never-ending cycle of sick days, this one’s for you. Grab some tea (or something stronger) and join the conversation!

December 19, 2024 Dressed in uniform for the blind train (BDBU Best Of)
Let’s revisit some funny and serious moments from this last year. A woman on TikTok freaks out about seeing a bunch of blind people at Denver International Airport, vision teachers doubting us when expressing interest in attending college, buying uniforms for kids and information on what you can do when they have outgrown them, and it's always fun to play "Would you Rather?" A fun trip down memory lane. Enjoy!
