Hey Mama! Podcast

We open the pod marveling about how fast the second baby’s first year goes by, and talk about what’s new and different with our second kiddos.  Laura talks about how surreal being a preschool parent is, and Caitlin wonders if school is making David hungrier. We’re also both getting a preview of “sharing” (or lack thereof) between brothers and talk about our favorite subject: SLEEP. Give us 5 stars in Apple Podcasts if you like what you hear!

We talk about the kids-three-and-under trifecta.
