We are back with a fresh episode, and it's all about our favourite thing - food! 

We take you through Poppy's food journey from the time she was born right up until now. From breastfeeding, to purees, to enchiladas and pastas! It's a difficult journey filled with anxiety and worry, but also laughter and joy. The most important thing is that the food journey with your baby is YOUR journey with YOUR baby. There is so much information on how you should be feeding, and how they should be progressing that it can be overwhelming. Do you!

Hey, look at us. Look at us. Back to back weeks with a fresh episode! This week we dig into everything sleep. From the 10 month journey in Poppy's patterns thus far, to products that work best for us, to how the wedding screwed everything up, to how we're preparing for daycare!

We'd love to hear if you've experienced the same with your little one, or maybe what we talk about will help you prepare with yours!

Well, after a quick 20+ week hiatus, we are back with a fresh episode! We apologize, life sort of got in the way. We were renovating, we were planning a wedding, and trying to keep up with our wee one. Things have settled a little bit, and we're back! Don't worry, we tell you all about it in this episode! 

We're here, and we're tired. 

If we sound a little bit quieter than usual, it's because we've got a sick baby in the house! Poppy has developed her first viral infection, and she's okay but a little needier than usual and has a nasty cough. 

We've also started sleep training to some moderate success, and we'd like to share the various methods we've researched and what we're trying. This weekend, we're going to a Blue Jays game so it will be the first time both of us will be away from Poppy for an extended period of time!

And we're back! Thank you for sticking with us through our mini hiatus. Life gets hectic with a baby, plus Ali and Poppy had a quick vacation to the East Coast!

We talk about travelling with a baby - what you should take and what's hard. We catch you up on all of Poppy's personality advancements, and what her new bed time has done to improve our relationship. 

We're so happy to be back and chatting about being parents! 18 Weeks already, where does the time go?

And we're back! We paused last week in order to have our house painted, so Ali, Poppy and Neffie took a mini vacation. Lots to talk about this week! We toured Poppy's future daycare facility and it was both exciting and scary. 

Poppy has become completely obsessed with putting her hands in her mouth, and the dreaded sleep regression hass begun. She had spent most of the first 14 weeks sleeping peacefully through the night but not anymore! Just when we think we have the answers, she changes the questions.

We also discuss all the wonderful ways our lives have changed since Poppy arrived, including less time and money wasted, the discovery of audio books and guilt free leisure time!

Hello and Happy Saturday! A quick note - something happened with our Apple Podcasts feed last week and the episode was not published (it was available elsewhere) - it should be fixed and back up for anybody who wants to go back and listen, it was one of our favourite episodes! 

This week we give you an update on Poppy - she smiles and laughs to Sesame Street now! It's the best. 

We also discuss the things we wish we knew before we became parents, such as time not being your own, how it takes forever to go anywhere, the difficulties of napping and our mental health. 

We round out the episode talking about our favourite thing from this week with Pop!

This week we catch you up on Poppy's new napping habits, as in during the day she decides she doesn't want to! We had a fussy baby on our hands, but car rides seem to help baby and mommy. 

We also get into some of the harder parts of parenthood, including mental health, doubt and guilt and how to spend enough time on our relationship.

We also discuss what it's like taking Poppy places, and our concern with leaving her with family when we want to have a date night or go to the Blue Jays game in July.

We wouldn't change anything for the world and the good far outweighs the bad, but there are definitely harder parts!
