What updates do we have on the gift saga?
We did not love that house and now we're in the game. And I think our question we're gonna have to ask ourselves is like is it worth living in this area so we can still walk to the nanny share or if we find a house do we move? And time will tell because we're we have like three weeks left. Are we are we good to start? Okay let's go. Ready?
How do we navigate double dating dynamics?
Here we go. All right welcome to Two Parents and a podcast. What a weird intro. Do you want to try one? I did last week. What'd you do? Feedback was very good. Did you say, did you welcome us? Yeah, because we had the whole spider ordeal.
What are the milestones in introducing solid foods?
That's very true. Well, this week we have something even more fun than a spider. Is that our pod covers? That's a big development. Oh, we do. We have podcast covers. They're called mic covers. Professionalizing. um i what i wanted to talk about at the beginning was and i'm so happy a point for alex harrison didn't like either of his birthday gifts oh i thought we were going to talk about how julie is a mic this week julie does have a mic say hi jules this is jules like nightmare
It's not worth it. Okay.
Julie will talk because sometimes we think we asked Jules these questions and then she answers and we have to repeat her answer into the microphone. So if there's something like Harrison was going to do a little bit of reading before the pod, but he didn't get to it. And he said, cramming for a test isn't good. Cramming isn't studying. So there's that. Yes. You don't like your birthday gifts. You don't like either of your birthday gifts. Do you know what that is?
What’s the latest on our house-hunting experience?
Please share. That's the pot calling the kettle black, sir. I have no idea what that means. It just means like, well, the pots and kettles are all black. Okay. It's like the stove call on the kettle. They're all, you know, like iron. Well, not yet. Then now the cat has your tongue. Do you know what that means? I, I, are you sure that's the right thing? Is it the right thing? Cause it's never made sense to me. Like, why would the cat have your tongue? I, I'm not a gift guy. It doesn't matter. Didn't like, I don't like receiving gifts and I love what you did for my birthday and All I wanted on my birthday was to spend time with you and spend time with Tate. It was amazing that my family came down. The gift doesn't do it for me. I love the thought, so thank you very much. But as I've said before, I think we need to do some more preemptive communication on the gift giving.
So we're not going in as blind as we do.
What’s the plan for our block party with neighbors?
I, I, I'm so glad you brought all this up. So I, all I wanted on Valentine's day was to spend time with you and you got me a gift, which was very nice. I didn't love that gift, nor did you like your shoes. Now the difference is the difference is you told me you wanted new balances and you've been mentioning how you needed white shoes. So if that's, and I got you the new balances and, And white shoes. But they were canvas. And how would I know? Well, I now love the New Balances. I returned them for some Tate pinks. And I think these are epic. Yeah. I had to tell Tate you didn't like the... I let her look at the computer screen. Wherever she slapped her hand were the ones I bought. So she picked those shoes. Because she likes red. Because she can see pink and red.
I had a very nice birthday. I'm not a big birthday person. I'm not a big gift person. Thank you very much. No, but if we're going by your school of thought, you should have just kept the shoes, right? As I said, no. So I got to now defend myself because you're not letting me up. When did I communicate that the gifts didn't work for me? You waited a day. Yes. So not immediately after purchasing, not immediately after opening. So I let some and I was like, hey, thank you so much. But I actually blamed it on the size. And then we went to New Balance and I was like, can he get a 10 because the 10 and a half are too big? And he's like, no, the 10 and a half are perfect. And I was like, what?
