This week we caught up on a bunch of highs and lows—Jack’s crushing potty training and finally staying in bed (huge win), while Pete’s gut is still mad at him. Lacey graduated pre-K and somehow beat all of us at bowling. We talk about the neighborhood pool party that felt like the official summer kickoff, the screen time swaps we’re trying out, and why post-dinner walks and shooting hoops might actually be better than scrolling. Plus, we get into parenting hacks, Facebook photo fails, and why bi-weekly episodes just make way more sense. Oh—and one of us may or may not be obsessed with a $66 tempered glass mat.
Key Points:
The pool party that kicked off summer
Jack’s potty training and bedtime routine = game changers
Lacey’s birthday bowling party turned into an unexpected flex
Screen time swaps, mud kitchen builds, and staying sane as parents
Pete’s gut health journey + accidental wins from ChatGPT
The best $66 chair mat you didn’t know you needed
Why we’re sticking with bi-weekly episodes
