    Play Episode 19

    We start to have doubts that Cadence will ever learn how to crawl forward. We’re worried she’s inherited out worst traits; uncoordinated (Bethany) and lazy (Alex). We talk about why our baby will be needing tubes in her ears. We recap spending Christmas with Alex’s family and New Year’s with Bethany’s college roommates. We realize Cadence doesn’t have enough men in her life.
