Nap Time + Me Time: Real Parent Talk About Real Parent $#!*
9 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 4 years ago - ★★★★★ - 18 ratingsI’m a letterboard-lovin’, scarf-wearing, puree-makin’, wine-drinkin’, slow-weanin’ toddler mom that lingers a little too long in the classroom rambling to the teachers about what her kid’s bedtime routine is like and explaining why said kid has peanut butter in her hair.I’m a little bit of a hot mess, and a little bit (okay, a lot) extra. As much as I love being a mom, sometimes I just need a minute and that minute usually (okay, always) includes wine. In each episode, I grab a glass of wine and a good friend and we just dive right in – into the highs (the first time they *really* smile at you), the lows (when you buy two pounds of strawberries right when they decide they hate strawberries), and everything in-between.So, grab a glass and have some “Me Time” with me. You deserve it.
