We are having so much fun sharing this journey with you guys). We get into how we made the decision to buy, what it was like navigating the process so fast (literally and figuratively - like we have only been dating 1.5 years!!), and exactly how we’re splitting the cost (spoiler: it’s not as simple as 50/50.) We’re also

First up—Harrison just launched a new product (not an ad #NoFreeAds). Then, we get into our family’s secret languages (do you have one??), an update on Tate (she’s 6 months old!!! is this the end of pumping?), and the TL;DR of the house situation is that there’s no update and we’re like 30 days out. We’re also

Welcome back to Just Alex! In today’s episode, we’re talking about fertility after giving birth and trying for baby #2. This week we learned we need to be managing screen time for our 3-month-old (WHO KNEW?!). And I’m dealing with some serious nanny guilt (plus, guilt if I’m not being productive enough while the nanny is here (make it make sense!!!!)). We also talk betting markets again (I’m still so confused that you can bet on ANYTHING) - the TikTok ban, the U.S. possibly buying Greenland, and

Welcome back to another episode of Just Alex! This week, we dive into some of the baby rules we wish we could break (if it was safe)—like co-sleeping or holding our baby in the car (we know, we know). Also - not really a rule - but are parents swearing in front of their kids in 2024?! Then, it’s all about newborn travel: I'm stressed about flying with our baby (maybe because we’ve done it once before) while Harrison’s surprisingly chill about it (also maybe because we’ve done it once before)
