Stagione 1
10 - Kids Parties
In the last episode of the season, we talk about our experiences with kids parties with both Alberto & Rosina. Planning kids events are stressful. Inviting the right amount of people, ensuring both adults and kids are entertained and trying to ensure your child, above all else, is having fun. We have planned big events & small and have come to a conclusion over what works for us and our family. In the episode, we compare the journeys with both kids and take a glimpse over what the future with our kids and parties are. This is the last episode of the season, we thank each and every one of you for listening to our journey so far and can't wait to show you what we have in store for Season 2. See you next year! Everyone's parenting journey is different and no one deserves to be judged for decisions they make. Parenting is hard enough as it is without the world judging you for your decisions!

09 - Fussy Eaters
In this week's episode, we recount our experience with Alberto's food journey. He went through a fussy phase and we talk about why it happened and what we are doing to try and fix it. It can be a daunting exercise, trying to ensure your kids are eating right. Are they getting enough fruit? Are they consuming enough vegetables? Especially when they refuse the food you are trying to provide them. As a parent all you want to do is the best for your child, we talk about how for a period of time we feel we had let Alberto down with how we were feeding him (especially during Peta's HG journey, go back to episode 1 to listen to that). The one thing to remember, is kids are resilient, and if you are determined and creative, as a parent you can be the ones to guide your kids to the right path. Everyone's parenting journey is different and no one deserves to be judged for decisions they make. Parenting is hard enough as it is without the world judging you for your decisions!

08 - Breastfeeding
In this week's episode, we talk about our journey with breastfeeding. Peta breastfed both our children and was really proud of her ability to see it through. The school of thought in modern times is "fed is best". Yes, absolutely, there is truth to that, especially when there are understandable reasons, such as milk not coming in or other medical rationale, but if you are willing, capable and determined, there is no substitute for breast milk. In the episode, we explore what our initial ideas about breastfeeding were and the uncertainty that comes with it, before exploring the differences between Alberto & Rosina's journeys and how breastfeeding changes over time. Overall, breastfeeding is hard, absolute props for the mothers out there that give it a go and even if you are able to do it for a few weeks to a month, it's a special thing to be able to do for your kids. Everyone's parenting journey is different and no one deserves to be judged for decisions they make. Parenting is hard enough as it is without the world judging you for your decisions!

07 - Baby Names
In this week's episode, look back on the process we took to name our children. With Daniel coming from a prominent Italian background, there was a strong desire to carry the Italian tradition in choosing names within the family and keeping it traditional. In the episode, we talk about our naming beliefs and take a trip down memory lane and look at how names are traditionally given in Italian culture. We also use that as a base for how we wanted to name our children. It's fun, light hearted and definitely not the opposite of a vibe. Everyone's parenting journey is different and no one deserves to be judged for decisions they make. Parenting is hard enough as it is without the world judging you for your decisions!

06 - Socialising
In this week's episode, we sit down to talk about our efforts to socialise with other families. When you become a parent, you imagine a lifetime of family friends with kids around a similar age to grow up with, but the reality of making that happen is much harder in modern society than it used to be. Throughout the episode, we explore the ways we have to tried to find other families, how our kids are at socialising and how we've finally found something we think can help us find families to holiday with. Everyone's parenting journey is different and no one deserves to be judged for decisions they make. Parenting is hard enough as it is without the world judging you for your decisions!
