Daycare called. My kid has a runny nose. Back home we go. This is parenting, apparently.

Winter driving forecast: 'hazardous conditions.' Translation: everyone panic and drive like they learned yesterday.

My partner and I haven't been on a real date in four months. We just talk about the baby now. Send wine.

The podcast I'm listening to is so good I took the long way home just to hear one more chapter.

Mild road rage incident this morning when someone cut me off. Almost honked. Parenthood is making me soft.

Scrolling through pics of my kid from last month and... when did they get SO big? #babygrowthtimewarp

Rush hour traffic + expired windshield wipers = a day where I questioned all my life choices.

First real smile from the baby today. Everything else can wait. This is the content. 💙

The coffee shop has the warmest corner and I've basically moved in. They know my order now.

My kid's sleep schedule is all over the place and honestly same. We're just vibing in chaos.

Is it too early to start counting down to spring? Asking for a friend who's losing it.

Listening to a true crime podcast while sitting in traffic and now I'm paranoid about everything. Bad combo.

The way my kid recognizes my car in the daycare pickup line hits different every single time.

Haven't seen my friends since before Christmas. Parenthood be like 'who needs a social life anyway' 💙

February weather: too cold to go outside, too bored to stay inside. The struggle is real.

My kid said 'dada' yesterday and my partner has not stopped talking about it. I get it, we're obsessed.

Started a new audiobook and suddenly my 45-minute commute doesn't feel like a slow death. Progress.

Okay but why do people think 70mph is acceptable on icy roads? White knuckles engaged.

The sleep deprivation is REAL today. How is it still only Tuesday? #newparentlife

Valentine's Day with a 10-month-old = my kid knocked over the card I made my partner. Romance is dead.
