  • The day we became Mommy and Daddy!

    HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! After a 6 month hiatus, we thought what a better day to restart things than Mother's Day! This special episode is all about the pregnancy and birth of the first love of our life, the girl who made us Mommy and Daddy- our little 5 lb 14 oz Gracie girl! I feel so blessed to have had such an amazing experience for my first pregnancy and I have so much admiration for all the moms out there for what we go through bringing our babies into this world! We also touch briefly on post-partum mental health in this episode which I feel is so extremely important to talk about. As always please reach out to us with any questions/concerns or ideas for future episodes.

  • Pouring from an empty glass

    Self-care- What is it and how do we do it?! Well, we don't, not really. This episode is all about self-care and how we try (and fail) at making it a crucial part of parenthood. If you're struggling to prioritize your own needs, like us, you've come to the right place. And if you have figured it out, please give us all the advice!! They say that you can't pour from an empty glass, but as parents we know that's not true because we do it every day. Ha! *cries in burnout*

  • "It was then that I carried you"

    Our most emotional episode yet! We dive into our personal faith stories and how we got here today. We also talk about where we stand in our faith at this point in our life and how it's changed after going through some hardship. We explain how we incorporate our faith into our children and our prayers for them as they grow. We also will discuss the difficulty of attending church every week with so many little ones in tow! No matter where you are on your faith journey, just remember God loves you so much and He is with you, holding you, every step of the way!
