T2P Episode 44: Who The Heck’s Ricardo

Hello, hello, all you wonderful listeners out there, and welcome back to the Trying 2 Parent Podcast. We've got another exciting episode in store for you. Let's dive right in!

First off, happy October, everyone! We're embracing the not so fall vibes of Mexico but we are finally settling comfortably into our new house, which we absolutely adore. Getting back into the groove with work has been both exciting and productive.

In recent news, I decided to take the plunge and got my armpits blacked out, aka tattooed. It's quite the experience, let me tell you.

Speaking of new experiences, we went out to dinner with one of Amanda's buddies and indulged in some wings for the first time in Mexico. It's amazing how certain foods can bring a wave of nostalgia.

We also ventured to Costco in Cancun, which was an adventure in itself. It was PACKED. I think people go there on Saturday's just to hang out ha.

Oh, and we had some tiny ceiling fans installed. It's the little things in life, right?

Now, let's dive into our pregnancy journey. In "We're Pregnant: The First-Time Dad's Pregnancy Handbook," we're at week 26. We're almost certain we've settled on our little man's name, and we're beyond excited to welcome him into the world. Speaking of the little one, he's been kicking up a storm in there, keeping Amanda on her toes.

On a hilarious note, our dog Nina still doesn't seem to realize that Amanda is pregnant. What's up with that dog?

As we prepare for the arrival of our little man, we're trying to figure out the last big things, like selecting a stroller and setting up the changing table. It's an exciting phase, to say the least.

In our "In the News" segment, we're diving into the topic of gestational diabetes, shedding light on an important aspect of pregnancy.

Now, here's a question for all you experienced parents out there: when do you start loading up on diapers? Share your wisdom with us!

And, of course, we couldn't forget our "I Love the '90s" segment, where we test your nostalgia knowledge:

• Can you name all four Ninja Turtles? That's Raphael, Leonardo, Michelangelo, and Donatello.

• Here's a classic: Which '90s cartoon featured a diverse team of "planeteers" who combined their powers to summon Captain Planet to fight environmental criminals?

• Who's the confident cartoon character known for his karate chops and suave demeanor, constantly convinced that all women want him?

• Lastly, name the show where Eliza travels the world with her family, making wildlife films, and has the unique ability to communicate with animals.

That's a wrap for today's episode. Thanks for joining us on this journey. Stay tuned for more exciting updates and parenting adventures on the Trying 2 Parent Podcast.
