We all know those families with 4+ girls or 9 sons. And we can't help but wonder, what is that like??? Well the parents have finally spoken and they are not wrong! They are reiterating things we already know and validating the vast amount of rocks boys must bring into the home.

Things we would never miss if they were to disappear tomorrow...
In this short episode, we share some of the things that no one would miss if they were to fall off the face of the earth tomorrow. If we got something wrong and you feel you would miss one of the mentioned things. Then let us know so we can make a correction, because if you'd miss it, then we want it to stay!

No Shoes, No Screens, No Mercy: The House Rules Episode
What are the unspoken (or very explicitly stated) rules that govern your home? In this episode, we dive into the house rules that shape daily life—from the universally accepted “no shoes inside” policy to more unique ones like keeping a “gunny sack” for misplaced items. We share listener-submitted rules, childhood house rules that have stuck (or been abandoned), and whether Megan should keep responding on the phone with “This is she.”Tune in for a relatable conversation on boundaries, manners, and the tiny laws that keep homes running smoothly. Do you enforce screen-free weekdays? Require “one polite bite” at dinner? Let’s talk house rules!

Jury is in: everyone misses Training Table.
Is it just us or do we miss all things that remind us of our youth? Whether that be pushing our kids in the stroller, to birthday parties at McDonald's or simply studying for a test in the campus library, turns out we all miss things.

Messes kids make, and how to (mostly) make it look like it never actually happened.
In this episode, we spill the tea on parenting’s greatest truth: kids are walking chaos machines. From pretzel salt explosions to the infamous kitchen strainer puke bucket (yes, it’s as bad as it sounds), we share tales of epic messes with listeners who’ve battled Vaseline carpets, bean bag guts, and toddlers armed with paint and raspberries. Their advice? Stock up on magic erasers, bleach, and baby wipes. Embrace the mess, and remember: if you haven't cleaned up at least 4.5 messes today, are you even parenting?
Hey, it’s us: Amanda and Megan. We’re just two average moms who love their kids so dang much we decided to start a podcast! This is not another mommy podcast, with experts informing you how you can be a better mom/wife/daughter/coworker/best friend in twenty-six sugar-coated steps. What WILL you find in this podcast? Validation? Yes. Laughter? Hopefully. Inspiring advice? Probably not.
Truthfully, no matter how many parenting books we read or conferences we attend, we still find ourselves raising our eyebrows and stifling laughs at our offspring. So, at the end of the day, we just slap each other on the butts (like you did in high school volleyball) and say: “you really tried, and that’s all that matters…”
