  • Will you get a Big Head? Week 22
    It's week 22 of Kristen's (your Mom's) pregnancy and if there's one thing she hates doing, it's breathing exercises. This week we talk about all the traits we hope Kiera (you) gets and hopefully doesn't get of ours; that includes a big head ego wise... and physically. We (your parents) are all over this place this week talking about drugs, positive affirmations, nipple size, can your belly button "untie" and how obsessed we are with each other. Kristen (your Mom) has a small pregnancy scare, and Taylor (your Dad) tell his story about auditioning for America's Got Talent and how he wants Kiera (you) to learn that getting a "No" is just one step closer to getting a "Yes." We (your Parents) also did a live charity stream and raised over $1,000 for an amazing organization WAR CHILD! Helping kids affected by war zones have the childhood they deserve. What a week!

  • We Got to See YOU! Anatomy Ultrasound Week 20
    It's week 20 of Kristen's (your Mom's) pregnancy and Taylor (your Dad) is gonna sing all about it! This week was very exciting because we had the much anticipated 20 week anatomy ultrasound and it didn't disappoint. We (your parents) could have watched Kiera (you) kickin and punchin all day long. Truly, the coolest experience so far. Besides the anatomy appointment, on this week's episode we (your parents) explain why it's so important that Kiera (you) watches the movie Grease, Kristen (your Mom) does a play by play of Taylor (your Dad) killing a Lantern Fly, and we (your parents) have a civil, non-argumentative, healthy, discussion as to why people might sleep in separate beds. It's a fun one!

  • What do YOU want to call your Grandma? SPECIAL GUEST Week 18
    It's week 18 of Kristen's (your Mom's) pregnancy and we have our first guest on the podcast! It's your... Nona! Or... Oma, or Gigi, or whatever you (Kiera) end up calling her. This is a very special week because we get to talk to Kristi Brown, Taylor's (your Dad's) Mommy as she just happened to be driving through Harlem and popped over for a chat. We are very excited to share this episode with all of you and especially you Kiera. Kristi talks all about her experience of being a mother at the age of 17, being scared to share that news with her father (your Great Grandfather), the joys of being a mother and how she finally understands why Grandparents who live far away from their Grandchildren get fomo and need to move closer. And most importantly, we try and figure out just what in the world you should call her! Because she's too young, badass and cool to just be called "Grandma."

  • Her Ears are on her Neck?! Week 14 & 15

    It's weeks 14 AND 15 of Kristen's (Your Mom's) pregnancy because... well, we got busy and didn't record last week. And lets be honest, because that happened once, we will probably start skipping weeks all the time now. In this episode we find out all sorts of things about what Kiera (you) is doing in there. Her bones are developing, her lanugo hairs are keeping her warm, and her ears have moved from her neck to her head! Who knew?!

    Also, Kristen's (your Mom's) body starts shifting and changing. And Taylor (your Dad) talks about why he has been having "Sad Boy Days" and worrying about money. We (your parents) also discuss one positive trait of ours that we hope Kiera (you) gets, and one negative trait of ours we hope she (you) absolutely does not get. Then we play a game of Would You Rather, Parent Edition! Which... ended up being kind of lame. Enjoy!!

  • What the **BLEEP** is her Name? Week 13
    WE HAVE A NAME!! It's week 13 here at Expecting You and Kristen (your Mom) and Taylor (your Dad) decided it was a good idea to record another late night episode because clearly they weren't tired and cranky enough in the last one. Baby (you) has a name, but Kristen (your Mom) doesn't want anyone to know yet. So she proceeds to say it over and over again this entire episode causing me (your Dad) to do a lot of extra editing. This week covers everything from when we think it's appropriate to teach sex education, to the Barbie movie, and most importantly, how Kristen (your Mom) still believes in Santa Claus (which means you probably still do too).
