Parent friends, postpartum planning for baby #2 & where’s Jessica?!

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re talking parent friends (because there really is something so nice about having people in the exact same season of life as you), and how we’re starting to think through postpartum planning for baby #2 (think family visits, meal prep, time off, etc. and all the little logistics we probably should have done by now but… SECOND BABY!).  We also get into our Easter weekend plans, the surprisingly effective tip helping us wean Tate off the pacifier, and whether “Where’s Jessica?!” is actually the toddler tantrum hack of the century (HAVE YOU GUYS HEARD OF THIS?!).  Plus, Harrison recaps his HYROX race strategy, we debate whether sharing your fitness goals out loud is motivating or mildly embarrassing, and recap Tate’s Mommy & Me Dance + Tea (which was extremely cute, obviously, and for SUCH a good cause). Then we get into a little sourdough update, Bicker of the Week on when it’s acceptable to drop out of a group trip, and our latest TV thoughts on Paradise (THANK YOU GUYS FOR THE REC!). LOVE YOU GUYS!
