    We’ve finally found a bit of rhythm with sleep (hallelujah ), and she’s starting to sleep through the night more consistently.

    The physical exhaustion is slowly fading… but now the emotional side is sneaking in—worry, love, connection, all of it.

    It’s wild how three months can feel like both a lifetime and a blink. Thanks for following along on this beautiful, chaotic journey.

  • How to Hire a Nanny: (Mistakes & How We Fixed It)

    How to Hire a Nanny: (Mistakes & How We Fixed It)
    Mar 16 2025

    What we didn’t consider?

    How they actually made us feel. That mistake cost us big time. Our nanny quit on the same day my wife returned from maternity leave. Lesson learned.

    This time, we took a different approach—what we call the beer test. Would we want to sit down, have a drink, and actually enjoy a conversation with this person?

    Turns out, hiring someone based on who they are rather than just their qualifications made all the difference.

    If you’re looking for a nanny (or hiring in general), watch this before making the same mistake we did!

    It Does Get Better!
    Mar 3 2025

    This week, Emily and I did something big… we went on our first date since having Madeline. We hit up a brewery, tried to have an adult conversation (while checking the baby monitor every two seconds), and celebrated a little more.

    The one thing that I recommend above all else is to date your wife! (OR partner)

    Oh, and it was Madeline’s first Halloween! She was the cutest little Cookie Monster, I was a cookie, and Emily was milk (because obviously...).

    If you’re a new dad or just here for the ride, I’d love for you to stick around. Let’s figure this out together and subscribe today!
