  • 31. Our favorite ages and stages (so far)
    This episode is all about our favorite ages and stages! As parents that are early in our journey we didn’t have 18 years of material to choose from, but we feel like there is a LOT of nuance in these early years for us to dig into!
    Listen in as we touch on baby milestones, hearing your toddler put together a sentence, the delight a 4 year old finds in life and having deep conversations with your preschooler. We also get into our LEAST favorite ages, but we are guessing there are no surprises with our choice 😏.

  • 30. Guilty Pleasures
    This week we are talking about our most embarrassing guilty pleasures! Guilty pleasures take on a new role in our lives post kid when there are so few things that are just for us! We have some doozies like eating candy in bed, listening to pop punk from 2005, watching the same tv shows over and over, and reading threads about the Duggar’s on Reddit 🙃.

    A mixture of Covid and being very tied to our little ones in this phase of motherhood has us dreaming of destinations far, far away.

  • 26. Our Second Postpartum Experiences
    In this episode we are talking about our second go round of the postpartum experience! We tried to incorporate some lessons learned from our first experiences (Setting up lots of visitors! Latch the baby whenever you can! Ditch breastfeeding altogether for your mental health! Leave the stupid nightgown at home!) but of course each experience creates unique challenges. Listen in for how we handled newborn formula feeding, a COVID hospital stay, and introducing your new baby to your first born.
