This week on Two Parents & A Podcast — we're breaking down the 5 BIGGEST surprises of being first-time parents. **BEFORE WE GET INTO IT - WE'RE SORRY THERE'S NO VIDEO!!! (We had a power outage with like 5 mins left in the episode and we could only recover the audio)** Back to the surprises - from the breastfeeding journey to how quickly you adapt (yes, you can change a diaper in the back of a car), we're sharing the unexpected lessons and little joys we've learned in year one. We also cover the stuff no one tells you: toys are overrated, your capacity for love grows in ways you never imagined, and finding community is just as important as anything else. Before the big list, we're talking first birthday parties (and Canadian Thanksgiving?!), kids at weddings, a quick etiquette lesson, and our official top 3 restaurants in the U.S. Later: a debate about whether you should pre-toast French toast (a note from Jules: “NO!!!”), the hot take that parents with 4 kids are actually LESS stressed, and a PSA on the biggest choking risks for kids. LOVE YOU GUYS!!! Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:00:48 Trying something new with workouts 00:04:03 A look inside Harrison's brain 00:07:38 First birthday party, Canadian Thanksgiving & kids at weddings (continued) 00:16:28 A quick etiquette lesson 00:18:42 Top 3 restaurants in the U.S. 00:20:54 Our top 5 surprises of parenting so far 00:47:20 Should you pre-toast French toast?

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast — we're answering ALL of your engagement questions! From the story behind Harrison's proposal book (and where he actually got it) to what life feels like now that we're officially engaged, we're giving you the full play-by-play. We get into the juicy topics you guys asked about: our updated thoughts on a prenup, whether Alex will legally change her last name, and how we handled judgment around having a baby before marriage. Plus, the wedding talk — what kind of wedding we're planning (traditional? city hall? somewhere in-between?), if we'll invite kids (other than Tate), our one non-negotiable detail (spoiler alert: mine is CAKE), and whether there will actually be a bridal party / groomsmen. Basically, nothing's off-limits this week… if you asked it, we answered it :) LOVE YOU GUYS!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're diving into power dynamics in relationships (we call them power points - Jules thought we were talking about Microsoft LMAO), weaning from breastfeeding (T-4 weeks), and what it's like parenting near family (spoiler alert: we're sleeping!!) Before all that - Air Canada flight attendants were striking (yes, we're still in Vancouver), and we've got some updated Canada recs for your next trip (don't worry, no chains this time… maybe). Then get into the whole process of weaning from breastfeeding/pumping (and if it's the final frontier to feel like yourself again postpartum). Plus: the age-old stain debate (are you a blotter or a rubber?), Skechers made a shoe with a secret AirTag pocket (actually kind of genius - but the internet is mad), a Ryanair flight meltdown over a crying baby, and the kids' product that somehow reinvented the landline. Oh, and wait until you hear about the subscription service that had us in shock (mostly because like can we stop making a subscription for everything!!!?). LOVE YOU GUYS!!!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're talking house upgrades (sorry Jules), hosting duties, and FAFO parenting (is anyone else seeing this EVERYWHERE?). We kick things off with a travel insurance debate (is it a scam or are we just unlucky?), a pilot who called in “not feeling it,” and a quick convo about why no one trusts the media anymore
