We all know reading is an important part of children's development and reading together can be such a heartwarming part of parenthood- but damn, some of those books either suck or work your last nerve. This week we're chatting about our favorite kids books, including rapping a few bars from one of our faves (yup!), but can't leave out the books we can't stand and some tips on how to evade reading the ones that your kids love but you really just can't right now.

Surprise! We pulled off an *almost* surprise birthday trip for Matt. This past weekend we left our kids at home and traded sippy cups for bottomless mimosas and adults-only play time in Las Vegas. Our memories are a wee bit foggy as we chat travel fails, weekend wins and the transition that is doing Vegas in your mid-30s. We're beyond exhausted, but WORTH IT!

Ever wonder if you're alone in your meal time madness? Spoiler alert, you're not! From tired mom approaches to full blown meal prepping, mealtime is chaotic no matter what. Throw your mother-in-law's child into the mix and all hell breaks loose when cookies are in play.

The Easter bunny is coming to town, let us sell you on why Easter is the best holiday. Chocolate bunnies, egg hunt prep, and the horror show that is glitter.

A podcast? Yup! Our lives are crazy and we have no shortage of things to do so adding another thing on our plate might be crazy, but we're really excited to be kicking off this show! Meet the ladies behind the sippy cups and let us tell you why we're embarking on this podcast adventure. Inspired by the #proofofmom social media movement we're here to document this insanely exhausting and booger filled (but really, really fun!) time in our lives.
