    Our Birth Story and Life With a Baby

    This week, we're telling our birth story! This is an episode that we have had multiple requests for, and we thought it would be a good time to share it with you. The experience was definitely trying, and for Maya it was pretty traumatic. Since we've had a lot of people ask us to talk about life with a new baby, we figured we'd go ahead and combine that with the birth story. So sit back, relax, and enjoy! This is a long one:)

    Hey guys! This week, we're talking about a topic that is fresh on our minds after a couple of months of parenthood: how to support new parents. We had so many amazing friends come alongside us when we had Ezra, but we've identified several things that are and aren't helpful about ways people typically seek to help out when someone has a baby. We hope this episode helps you out as you support the new moms and dads in your life!

    This week, we're talking homeownership! A year ago, we never would have thought that we would be homeowners right now, but we made it through the process and lived to tell the tale. So we wanted to share our experience with you in the hope that it might encourage you, or at least prove to you that buying a house is not as unattainable as some people think! We hope you enjoy.

    As we got married and transitioned to being adults, we both realized that there was SO much that no one ever taught us. So, we thought it would be a good idea to share some tips and tricks with you that we've learned (and are still learning). Maybe this will help you avoid making some of the same mistakes we did! Enjoy!
