The following podcast is a Dear Media production.
From Vanderpump Rules to motherhood and everywhere in between,
it's time to catch up with Sheena Shea. This is Shenanigans. And now here's your host, Sheena Shea. This is Shenanigans. And now, here's your host, Sheena Shea.
All right, y'all. We've got a fun episode for you today, but be sure to stay tuned until the end of this episode for a sneak peek of my new single, Apples with the 27s.
Hello, everyone. Getting back into some shenanigans with my girl, Janet Elizabeth.
Hey.
How we doing?
Good.
It's just the two of us today.
Two and a half.
Well, yeah, that's right. Oh my gosh,
baby boy. Have we settled on a name yet? You don't have to say what it is. We have a couple,
I'll say them. We have a couple picked out, but Jason and I want to look at him first and kind
of see if his like his eyes will tell us. But we really like, so I really like my mom's maiden
name is Perry. I really like Perry. We both like Jaden, which Jason's mom threw into the mix. And
I was like, I like that. Yeah. And then recently I started kind of thinking about Cade, C-A-Y-D-E,
because I think Cade Caperna sounds like a strong name. That is really cute. Yeah. But Jaden,
you wouldn't spell with a Y. I don't think so. Because I also kind of like the name Jade is like
a short nickname. And I kind of like it spelled J-A-D-E. Okay. Which also feels a little bit
more masculine to me than J-A-Y-D-E. Hmm. I don't know. We'll see though. I feel like
Jason and I look so different. You know, he's half black, half Korean. I'm white. So I'm like
our kid, like, you know, you see mixed couples and mixed children who some of them look so much
like the mom, so much like the dad. It's so crazy. You have no idea. Yeah.
So I'm like, we don't know what he's going to look like.
We don't know.
I'm like, I have to see his little face and see which of those names suit him the best. And even with the crazy clear 4D ultrasounds, obviously you can't see like skin coloring or anything like that.
But I swore that Summer was going to have a huge, like weird flat nose based on that photo.
But she was probably just smushed in there.
But that's the thing.
And then when she came out, I was like, oh, she's got a cute little nose.
So I was, like, looking at the photos in the ultrasound.
But then I was looking at photos of me right when I was born,
and I had the exact same nose.
Oh, a little smush.
So crazy.
When you look now back at the 4D pictures or 3D or whatever,
can you tell, like, if you put a bunch of 4D
photos and they showed you one maybe you didn't originally see like that they printed off
for you or like another image of Summer in you and they put other lineups of random babies,
do you think you could pick her out?
I don't know.
Okay.
I always wonder like once you see her and know her, do you look at those pictures now
and you're like, oh yeah, it's her.
Like I see it in there or do you think she's still kind of unrecognizable no I feel still kind of
unrecognizable that's kind of how I've because I've seen other people's yeah of kids I know now
and I'm like huh I feel like I mean I have so many of them but I feel like that doesn't necessarily
look like summer oh it's so funny that it's her. Is that her little foot? Right? Yeah.
She's so flexible.
Oh, see, that's the other thing.
They're so smushed in there.
Yeah.
By the time that they look enough like a baby that you can have these special ultrasounds,
they're so big and smushed around.
See, but this one, actually, I feel like that does look like her.
I guess I haven't really looked back at them since a couple of years years see I can't that one I'm like I see it less but I don't know but that's
what I mean like as her mother do you think you if they showed you a brand new one from
the same old town but you haven't seen yet you think you'd be able to pick her out even as her
mom I honestly don't know I want to do one of these soon. Did you like your place? Yes. Okay. So, and then I sent you the one, Spotlight 40 Baby something or another.
Yeah.
And they come to your house.
Oh, that's nice.
But this one that I went to is in Beverly Hills.
Okay.
It's kind of actually more like mid city.
Okay.
I just remember it was right around where I used to go and audition for Entourage.
Yeah.
And when I came there, I was like, wow, who would have thought I would be coming to like
this same building for an Entourage? Were you on Entourage? Yeah, it was mostly just a
featured model extra. So I got paid a little higher rate than SAG, so it was the model rate.
And I auditioned for that show so many times and I never booked the actual speaking role.
Interesting. I love when I see like a random clip of something. I'm like, is that?
And I'm like, oh, yeah.
It's like, what if it's you mostly or Jax, I feel like was in a lot of like background stuff.
Yeah.
And like, I will see him in random stuff that I'm like, is that him?
I know.
It's so funny.
So funny.
We were all like hitting all the auditions before Vanderpump happened.
Yeah, we did.
We did a lot back in our day.
We did a lot back in our day.
So I want to touch on something on the sad side before we get into any of our questions and topics for this episode.
By the time you guys are listening to this, the fundraiser at SUR will have already happened.
So hopefully I met you and took a photo with you there.
But if you weren't able to make it to California, you weren't able to make it out to Sur, I just wanted to say that there is a link on my Instagram in my Comey.
It's the first thing we're doing a GoFundMe for the Maui wildfires.
We have been working directly with Lexi, who runs the At Pump Rules account.
Her family, they are the owners of Maui Babe and so they've made a huge
donation to the fund and we're working just directly in support of them they're in support
of us vice versa Viva Verano lashes and give them Lala Beauty we are matching proceeds awesome
thank you so I just wanted to put that out there to everyone. If you weren't able to come
to the event, you can still donate. I feel like everyone in the world definitely knows what
happened. But in case you've been living under a rock or just, you know, not up to date with the
news, because I know if you're like me, I avoid the news at all costs. But this was one thing that really hit close to home for me.
This is a place I've been going for so long.
But last week, these wildfires broke out on the Hawaiian islands of Maui.
And it's become now the deadliest in the United States in literally over a century.
I saw that.
As of yesterday, there were 96 reported
deaths, there were still like up to 1000 missing. And I'm sure by the time this podcast comes out,
the numbers are going to be even higher. So I just felt like I need to do something with my platform.
If I can't be there, volunteering boots on on the ground like literally helping like what can
we do so we've come together as a cast I told everyone I would love to turn our see you next
Tuesday this week into a fundraiser I said no one is taking photos without a donation I don't care
if it's 50 cents a dollar whatever people can donate anything counts anything you know because
it all adds up but the town of Lahaina has just been completely destroyed.
Front Street, it's crazy.
The photos that I've seen.
And then I look back at my vlog, like walking down Front Street.
And I'm just like, this is a place I've been going for so long.
And Hawaii is just such a special place to me.
So I wanted to do what I could.
So please, you guys, donate to the fund if you can.
Anything you can do, you know, supplies, whatever.
There's a lot of people who need help right now.
You've been doing such a great job sharing.
Thanks.
I mean, really, like, I actually found out about it because of, I think, an Instagram post your mom did.
Yeah.
And she wrote Maui.
And I was like, is your dog okay? And I was like, oh, like never. I was like, and then I started, I
looked up the news and I was like, oh my gosh, there's fires that are breaking out. And it was
like, as it was happening at first. And I was like, okay. I was like, you know, my first thought was
like, Hawaii is part of the United States. They'll get it under control. And in my, you know, when I
think of Hawaii, I think of like the lush green open spaces and my first thought was oh it's probably just like a lot of wildfires happen
where it's in the hills it's away from towns and then once images and stuff started coming through
it was so shocking and devastating to see I mean the videos not like I'm tiktok of people jumping
out of their cars and just waiting in the ocean just
like while there's ash and stuff flying over that I mean yeah it's crazy to see something like this
happen like in this day and age like on a place like that and same I've been to Maui before and
when they were there were some side by side so I was like oh I remember that like there's like
this shop with this little like Volkswagen bug that was out front and And I was like, I remember driving past that like many times.
Like and then they show it and it's completely destroyed.
And then I really feel bad for like there's so many like monuments, churches, things that have been there for hundreds of years.
Yeah, Viola Church.
They had just celebrated their 200th anniversary, like the most historic church on the island, first one and it's just it's so sad
it's so sad and i know like lexi pump rules her page she's posted some stuff and the videos of
her like like where she's talking into the camera because you know she obviously has such a
connection to the island yeah you know all of her stuff was just so
heartbreaking and really hit home because when you you know you see all this stuff and it's
shocking and crazy and heartbreaking but you know when you also know somebody that puts like it's
like my thing you know they're saying my family and my friends and my neighbors and they're talking
about it from first person it's you, it really hits home even more.
But I'm really proud of you.
You've put it out there so much.
I feel like you've been sharing all the right donation pages,
like putting the crucial information out there,
the truth out there of what's happening.
I know there's been actually some other reality stars that have put false information out there.
And so I think you've done a really good job
of sharing the right information
and hoping to make a difference.
I think it's really great that you guys are turning, you know, see you next Tuesday
into a fundraiser event. I know you're trying to work on some other stuff behind the scenes to get
as much money as you can there. And it's, I'm proud of you. I'm a proud friend. Thank you so
much. Of course. We're going to take a quick little break and we'll be right back. Okay. I
just have to take a second to talk to y'all about what I have been putting on my face every day under my makeup.
And that is my Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Primer.
So my sister told me about this and I'm not one to usually use a primer.
But since I started, I'm telling you, it has changed my makeup game.
And when I shot my Good As Gold music video, I was on set for 12 hours rocking out
and my makeup did not budge. It's like when I'm filming a reality show, there's a lot of
meltdowns that I have had. There's been a lot of drama thrown in my way. But one thing,
if I'm going through all of that, that I don't want to have on TV is my makeup
budging. So I am telling you, the Hydro Grip Primer, it lasts up to 12 hours. It prevents
makeup meltdowns and leaves your skin with a dewy, glowy finish that will last you all day.
If you want to sleep with your makeup all night,
it's 94% natural, vegan, clean, cruelty-free, paraben-free, silicone-free, oil-free,
fragrance-free, all the things free, including gluten-free. It has 4,700 five-star reviews.
star reviews. And yes, I said that 4,700. So you guys can head over to your local Sephora or get yours at milkmakeup.com. All right. So my face looks good, but you know it, yes, yes, factor meals. The one thing that is, well,
first of all, it's America's number one ready to eat meal kit. But it is the one thing that has
been keeping me fueled and fed this season while I have been so busy that I don't have time to
grocery shop for myself.
I make sure my kid is taken care of.
And then when it comes to me, I'm like, boom, factor meal delivered straight to my door
every Tuesday, enough meals to get me through the week.
I poke a couple holes in the plastic.
I chuck it in the microwave, two minutes, lunch, dinner, midnight snack, whatever is served. And
there are so many delicious flavor packed meals. I'm telling you, they don't get old. I genuinely
crave these meals when I come home and I'm excited that there's no prep, no cooking, no mess, no cleanup.
Everything is recyclable.
It is the best for if you have a busy lifestyle and you just don't have time to grocery shop.

and we have a lot of questions and topics and things that came in. So I figured, why don't we just do a little kiki.
I love it.
BFF podcast.
I love it.
A lot of people want to know how Janet is feeling in her pregnancy.
Good for the most part.
I mean, it's stressful.
Like right now I'm in baby shower registration or whatever.
Registry.
And that's like, it's hard.
Like you've been so nice and said
like I can send you my list and whatever and I've just been honestly straight up copying Jenny Ting's
list. It was so good. Hers was so good and I know she's like obsessive like me and like you where
she's looking at product reviews and stuff but I'm like it is hard like you know when you're
pregnant you're suddenly expected to be an expert on like baby stuff. And I'm looking through her registry and I'm like, what the hell is a bottle top sanitizer machine? I'm like,
what is this? What do I use it for? Right. But like, I'm like, do I have to sanitize every
bottle? I actually never had one of those. But what I did do regularly boil, right? We would
boil. Yeah. Yeah. But I'm just like, oh, and then I'm like, get down this rabbit hole of like, yes, you have to keep everything
like very sterile and dry.
And I'm like, didn't know that.
I just thought you got bottles, put them in the dishwasher, took, like, I don't, you know,
it's like the little things of like the actual important stuff I feel like that you don't
necessarily really realize.
So pregnancy wise, like physically, I feel like I'm in a really great place. Like I've had knock on wood, a very easy pregnancy and like, you know, have felt pretty
good. The first trimester was really rough, but, and I was like barfy a lot. And then I hate
throwing up. So I just would just not just like sit with it. It was gross. Yeah. And I was exhausted.
Like I slept like 10 hours a day, at least some days, like 18.
First trimester?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah. It wipes you out.
It was unbelievable. I would get out of bed, make a coffee, and I'd be like, all right,
it's 8 a.m. I'll take a nap. I'll take an hour nap today. And then I'd be sitting there on the
couch. I'd wake up and it'd be 1130. My coffee's cold. And I'm like, what happened? How did this
happen? And I'm like, Jason, do you know I was sleeping out here he's like you looked like you needed it and I was like no no don't let me sleep
all day I'm like I hate that I'm like like to get stuff done so the first trimester was rough in
that sense now I feel pretty great like you know it's I definitely feel like bloated it's not fun
to binge eat which I love like I love like ordering a huge pizza and eating a whole thing now it's
like when you stuff yourself
and you already have a baby inside of you, not fun.
I know.
At the baby shower, what was that, yesterday?
Yeah.
Yeah, yesterday I was like,
Jenny Ting gave us too many good food options.
There's like salmon, short rib, and chicken.
We had to have them all.
Yeah, I was like, I have to have a little bit of all.
And then she was like, oh.
And then after I ate all of this delicious food,
she was like, we're having a Sunday bar.
And I was like, well, I'm not going to say no to that. And then she comes around. I was like, we sliced the cake.
And I was like, all right, I have to draw the line somewhere. I will skip the cake. But like,
I left that and was like, oh my gosh, I'm going to explode and die. But yeah, I mean, it's different.
Your body's different. I would say like the hardest thing and the most stressful thing is like
learning all the baby stuff that you need and why you need it. And it's like, it's really like you
have to study and become an expert on something you've never known. And I was a nanny for years and
years. And I was like, but only for like two years old and up. Totally. So the infant stage
is totally different. I'm learning so much all the time. And it is like a little bit of a panic
anxiety of like, am I ready for this? Am I going to do okay? Like, is everything going to be okay?
And I know people figure it out all the time. Everyone figures it out. You'll figure it out. You're two of the most
intelligent people I know. You're going to be just fine. Jason keeps saying though, he's like,
oh, we can just push it off. He's like, I passed the bar after studying for two months. So I only
need 60 days of studying. And I'm like, you'll be fine yesterday I think I texted you this but I was
like we were looking at registries and he's I'm like baby blankets I'm like I kind of just want
some neutral stuff he's like we have two baskets of like throw blankets I thought you were gonna
donate can't we just use those and I was like oh no I was like now I know what I'm getting you for
your shower I'm just gonna get your shit ton of baby blankets Jesus is like we don't need any we can just use the throw blankets you were gonna donate and I was like no no. Now I know what I'm getting you for your shower. I'm just going to get you a shit ton of baby blankets. Jesus is like, we don't need any of these.
We can just use the throw blankets you were going to donate.
And I was like, no, no, no, no, no.
No, sweetie.
No.
He thought a high chair.
Okay, we'll work on him.
We had friends who were meeting us and they were like, can you grab a high chair from
the restaurant for our table?
I do remember that.
And he went and got a bar stool.
It was me.
We were coming.
Yeah.
To the country club.
I was like, what is this?
He's like a high chair.
And I was like, no, a high chair.
You need a high chair.
It's a thing.
And he was like, oh, like those baby.
I was like, oh, the baby thing.
Yeah.
So I'm a little bit nervous.
We'll work on him a little bit.
But this is why I don't know if you've talked to them.
I wanted you to touch base with the Guru.
Yes.
Because they literally help with everything. i always love to give them a
shout out on the podcast if you guys want to check them out goo goo guru okay you need to actually
respond to them because i think they did send me a nice email and i have not i was like i'll get
back to you yeah because literally if you have any question if you're like do i need this which
brand is the best for this they're a concierge service for all things mom and baby i love it
i need that and that saved me because i had no idea yeah you're gonna have so many friends who
have different opinions friends who are like die hard team snoo and then you have people like me
where i'm like i thought that was unnecessary and a waste of money but to each their own yeah so
it's just like you know know, whatever works for you
is going to be what's best for the baby.
That's the hard part is everybody has such a strong opinion.
Totally.
People are like, get this one, no, get this one.
And I'm like, I don't know.
I guess both.
I don't know.
Yeah.
We'll see.
Yeah.
So Goo Goo Guru, they can definitely help you out.
Amazing.
I'm going to ask them.
I'm so excited for you.
It's going to be fun.
And before you do your registry,
I literally have so much stuff in my garage in Palm Springs.
Amazing.
That it's like, I don't need my rockeroo.
I don't need this lounger chair.
I don't even know what a rockeroo is.
You'll know.
I'll give you one and you'll want it.
But it's just basically like this swing thing that the baby sits in and it kind of just rocks them.
It can play music and it like moves a little bit.
But I love it.
OK.
Yeah.
Some babies love them.
Some aren't crazy about them.
Summer, it was like hit or miss.
She either wanted to be in it or she was like, no, I don't like this.
But it's a great thing.
How is Summer in her arm and everything now?
She's good.
We're starting to tell her now like we're counting down the days of her because she's
getting it off next Friday.
Wow.
Kids bounce back really quick.
Yeah.
I feel like that's a lot faster than if I broke my arm.
Yeah.
For sure.
I feel like maybe because their bones are kind of still forming.
But yeah, she already gets it off next Friday.
Wow.
So she's been good.
I feel like she's going to miss her cast.
I think so too.
She looks really cool and you can tell she feels like tough girl and she's walking around with it.
Yeah.
She knows how to do everything pretty much with both hands. cool and you can tell she feels like tough girl and she's walking around with it yeah she knows
how to do everything pretty much with both hands so it's like she'll color with her left but then
she's like oh no actually I can still do it with my right I saw her do that eating everything yeah
Brock's like okay we're just gonna like put a fake cast on her once a year to get her to using her
left but yeah she's doing good and I feel like that was one of the things where, you know,
for those who have been listening to this podcast regularly know how bad my anxiety and OCD and all
things just parenthood have been. It was like when that happened, that was one of my biggest fears
was my kid getting hurt. And I legit stayed so calm. I didn't even cry right when it happened or when
I found out it was broken. I was just like, okay, it is what it is. You know, I'm not going to blame
myself. I am just going to be okay with it because what else can you do? Well, you have an active
two-year-old who likes to run around, who likes to play, who, you know, is fun.
And, I mean, she has so much energy.
So unless you're literally holding her at all times, which she would never allow, like stuff's going to happen.
And if at becoming a mother, like the one of the biggest things that has been of comfort to me is like, like, for example, like the 20-week ultrasound.
Like I remember going into that and being like, this is a, you know, thorough anatomy scan of the baby. And like, I know people who
have had scary things pop up, like Lala had something, I think where they said that Ocean
might have dwarfism from that. And then they did a scan later, everything ended up being okay.
So I kept like, anytime that something I guess has gone wrong for you guys, but then you see
it all become okay. Summer broke her arm. That's, you know, you guys but then you see it all become okay Summer
broke her arm that's you know terrifying but then you see her at the doctor with smiling getting her
cast on and her not missing a beat afterwards so it's like really nice actually to see like
you guys go through the steps even when they've been hard things but then be like oh look it's
all okay it all was okay so like if we have a little baby boy who wants to run around
and be rough and tough and he falls and break something i'm gonna be like okay he'll probably
like his cast hopefully as much as summer does no literally before summer was even walking i just had
a feeling that my kid would be one to break a bone i was just like already preparing myself for that
day my little cousin her daughter she was maybe three when she
broke her arm and i remember she had the cutest little cast and i was like that's probably gonna
be summer one day and i just mentally prepared myself and then it was like you know what the
worst happened and she's okay and she loves her cast and she's totally fine i love that they're
waterproof now yeah i saw so many people talking on instagram recently it's gonna get moldy
it's gonna be stinky it's gonna be itchy it's gonna be this i'm like shut the up you're like
waterproof yeah we've listened to our doctor yeah we don't need the peanut gallery of the internet
mom trolls i swear it's like go maybe like it's probably people who have had kids like 10 years
ago who they didn't have those type of casts yeah and they're probably just mad because imagine how
annoying it would be if it wasn't waterproof oh my gosh i know i mean i had to wrap
her up every time i already bought all of that stuff because i didn't know casts were waterproof
so i just sent it back to amazon i got the waterproof sleeve the waterproof like i bought
everything and then when we got her cast i was like oh you could tell in the videos that you
posted of them wrapping it it's not the same material as like casts were for us.
Like it's not like that cloth.
No.
Looked actually a lot more comfortable and less itchy than I feel like casts were back in the day.
Yeah, it was so crazy.
Brock was doing an Instagram live last week and he was explaining how it's waterproof.
And everything he was saying, the way he said it, I was like, I did not retain all of that information.
I was just like, cool, it's waterproof.
That's all I know. He's like, it's got these air safe pockets in the middle. And I was like, what did not retain all of that information. I was just like, cool, it's waterproof. That's all I know.
He's like, it's got these air safe pockets in the middle.
And I was like, what?
You're like, it does?
Yeah, the way he described it.
And he was talking about how they got the material wet.
And then it forms.
And then this and that.
And I was like, all right.
Cool.
It's that.
You're like, all I need to know is that she can keep swimming.
And I don't have to put all the extra stuff on her.
We're even starting her swim lessons back up today.
Because she's been swimming with it.
She can still do the safety procedures
and like hold on and crawl around and all that.
So I'm like, well, why am I pausing them for a month?
We may as well keep her used to her swim instructor.
I feel like Summer, as a kid too,
you have to burn energy out of.
A hundred percent.
Partially, I see so much of both of you in her.
Like I feel like she looks exactly like you.
But her like rough and toughness, I'm like, oh, that you in her. I feel like she looks exactly like you.
But her rough and toughness, I'm like, oh, that's Brock.
She really wants to get into things.
Totally.
And I love that she will have that 50-50 growing up where I want her to be fearless,
but also be cautious and be safe, but not be scared.
You can tell she has both of those. Yeah.
It's really cute.
Yeah. That's really cute. Yeah.
That's like the one thing with Brock
that he gets frustrated with me.
You know when knocked up
when he's like,
I know it's not you,
it's your hormones.
Fuck you, hormones.
Yes.
I feel like Brock sometimes
is like that with my OCD
and my anxiety.
She's like,
fuck you, OCD.
And I'm like,
I know.
It's like,
I don't want Summer to have that.
That's why I'm doing my exposure therapy.
I'm doing everything I can because I'll see little glimpses of things that she does where she has to line everything up
straight. And I just think that's a normal kid thing. I'm like, does she have OCD? You're doing
all the right thing. If there's something that I truly love about you, it's that when something is
wrong, you don't just sit around and complain about it. You actually do something about it
at all times. Yeah. And that's why I wanted to get on Zoloft because I thought, you know, maybe this will help.
But then when I realized it was making me so sluggish,
if I took it at night so I had more energy during the day,
it was harder to wake up in the morning.
I was upping my caffeine and I was like,
you know what, maybe this isn't for me.
But I also knew in that first week I felt so much better but I stopped
smoking weed I didn't have a single drink and not that I'm even a big drinker but for that first
month on Zoloft I did not have one sip of alcohol I didn't smoke weed but I was just so tired all
the time so my doctor was like look for the next week take it every other day at night see how you
feel stop taking it for a few weeks. See how you feel. Stop taking
it for a few weeks and see how you feel. So now we're at that. Stop taking it for a few weeks.
I've had a couple of drinks. I still have not smoked any weed, but my intrusive thoughts have
not really come back. It's been still so much better. So I'm like, it's all about the right
combination of things like removing and adding. So as long as you're going down the journey with your doctor, I think that's the best thing you can do.
Yeah.
So update, not on the Zoloft anymore, but still feeling so much better.
And it's so crazy how weed is something that used to make me calm, have less anxiety, be more rational in my thinking.
And it used to help my intrusive thoughts.
Whereas now with the postpartum OCD and just being a mom.
It's not the same.
No.
Because also I didn't smoke for two years.
I was pregnant for basically a year with both pregnancies.
Then I breastfed for 13 months.
It's an adjustment.
Then when I started smoking weed again for the past year,
sometimes it was great.
Sometimes it wasn't.
And I would just be like, oh, fuck, I guess it's the sativa.
Maybe I need to go back to Indica.
And then sometimes I didn't know what strain I was smoking.
And I was like, this is not good for me anymore.
Time to take a break.
Yeah.
It's good to clear everything out, too, and just also see where your body is, like, naturally.
Yeah.
I was telling, like, Jenny Ting this just about Botox the other day.
I know.
I'm like, we can't get Botox. It's kind of nice because you get to see what your face looks like completely. Yeah. I was telling like Jenny Ting this just about Botox the other day. I'm like, we can't get Botox so it's kind of nice
because you get to see
what your face looks like
completely without it
and then when you go back
they'll be able to see
like the updated spots.
And I'm telling you
it doesn't bother you
as much too
after you have the baby.
I've been due for Botox
for a couple weeks now.
Yeah, I was like,
your forehead's moving.
I just haven't made it
a priority
and now I'm like
shooting a music video this week, thank you. But I'm like, fuck, I wish I had priority. And now I'm like shooting a music video this week.
Thank you.
But I'm like, fuck, I wish I had my Botox.
But I'm like, whatever.
I guess I have expression.
You know, I did a whole season, all of season nine with no Botox.
And I didn't think I looked worse.
No, you looked great.
So now I just don't even get it as much because I just don't care.
Yeah.
I love it.
You'll get there too.
Yeah.
Tell me about the music video.
Can you?
Yeah.
Is it with the band members that I saw this weekend?
Yes.
Who, by the way, their outfits, you could just tell.
They were so good.
They're like the most typical emo band looking guys I've ever seen.
They were all wearing like two piece pool outfits.
One of them was dressed like Willy Wonka.
Yeah.
Like they were just like, I like when I walked in, I was like, oh, that's for sure.
The band guys before I even saw you, I was like, that, that's for sure. The band guys before I even saw you.
I was like, that's their table.
Yeah, they were so cute.
They were all so nice and polite, too, and seem like you guys are having really fun.
No, they're awesome.
Yeah.
So we're doing a video this week to the Screamo version of Good as Gold.
Hell yes.
Yeah.
I'm so excited.
My friend Neil, who directed Bryce's Margot Robbie video, is going to be directing this one.
And he just has such a vision.
And all of these things that we're doing in it is going to be so cool.
So I'm hoping to have that video done and edited in the next two weeks so we can put it out before the end of the month.
Wait, is there an original Good as Gold video?
No, I never did one
am i missing one our new song that we just wrote you know is so good are you gonna do a video for
that too eventually okay yes but first as good as gold but i was like we gotta do a good as gold
video i'm never done with the good as gold screwball mix i can't even it brings together
so many things that i love it's like classic classic Bravo. And honestly, like, let's be honest, like number one best song that's ever been by a
Bravo Liberty ever.
Thank you.
And there's a lot of good ones to compete with.
It's a catchy one.
There's a lot of other good ones out there.
Yeah.
But that plus like the like 14 year old in me that just wants to scream emo music at
all times.
I'm like, this hits it all for me.
Yeah.
It hits it all.
No, it's so good.
The band, the 27s, shout out to them.
They are so talented.
And just being in the studio with them, like Lando sings and then Kevin plays guitar, but
he's the one who makes all the music as well and like tweaks this and adds this.
And I was just watching him make this new song and I'm like, how?
What?
I love it.
I can't wait.
Did I hear that they might be making an appearance sometime soon?
We're going to take a quick break and we'll be right back.
This episode of Shenanigans is also brought to you by Poise Ultra Thins.
So we talk about it all the time here on the podcast.
I am absolutely in love with being a mom.
Summer moon is an absolute joy. But let me tell you,
some things after having a baby, all of my mamas out there know they just hit a little different.
And one thing I like to do on shenanigans is be transparent and open about all things when it
comes to my experiences with motherhood. I talk about this with my girlfriends and you know what? I've got a
giant female audience here. So I like to talk about it with all of you too, because if we're
keeping it real about postpartum life, one thing we're not always talking about is bladder leaks.
It's not something to be embarrassed about. It is something that happens to a lot of women who
also use period pads for their bladder leaks after having a baby.
But look, let's be honest, period pads are not designed for pee. Poise Ultra Thins, on the other
hand, are. Poise Ultra Thins are the brand's thinnest protection that helps keep you clean,
dry, and fresh throughout the day, jumping on top of bars, dancing, singing, working out at the gym,
whatever you're doing. I mean, the little moments really are so important and poise ultra thins are
such a good way to enjoy motherhood without compromise because we as mothers should not
be compromising when it comes to that. It takes poise. Learn more at poise.com.
Okay, but tell me who else loves summer but gets a little overwhelmed by all the plans because I certainly know I do.
And one thing that helps me with that is daily harvest, helping me kick off my mornings the
right way with quick nourishing and delicious food. Because here's the thing, good days start with good mornings. And if you are
anything like Brock, you are going to remind me that it's important to have something nutritious
in the morning. And Daily Harvest is one of those things that I have been having in my mornings.
The smoothies are so good. Ariana introduced me to these years ago and I keep them stocked in my freezer.
So many different flavors, so many easy to prep options. Not only does Daily Harvest keep my
freezer stocked, but it is just always ready when I am with delicious food. And I love that I can
also skip the chopping, shopping, the prepping, the post cooking, cleanup,
all of that with Daily Harvest. Also by working directly with farmers, Daily Harvest secures the
best ingredients and freezes them at peak ripeness to lock in that always in season taste and just
picked nutrition. What you see is what you eat. We all deserve easy mornings. So let Daily

dailyharvest.com slash Sheena. All right. So we've got a lot of parenting and mom questions what are you most excited about
when you become a mom parenting anything she's nervous or most excited about i would say like
i'm most excited to meet him to see his personality to watch and see like what kind of human jason and
i are going to create together yeah and most And most nervous for, which I think you can relate
to as the newborn phase and terrifying, like the neck thing. And just that was the worst,
like constant, you know, watching them when they're sleeping and making sure they're still
breathing at all times. SIDS, like all of that stuff I'm scared for. I'm excited most for like
a two year old and like a six year old and. Having a kid, the baby part really scares me just because of
all the things that can go wrong and the anxiety. 100%. I think that's totally normal. But there
are so many things, especially for SIDS. I mean, I had anything preventative that you could. First
of all, the kid is going to be sleeping in your room in a bedside bassinet. You're going to be
right there. You're not going to be sleeping for months. Yeah. Because newborns also have to eat, whether
it's boob, bottle, formula, whatever, every three hours. Right. You have to be up every three hours.
My goal is to breastfeed like as much as I can. I'm not against supplementing with formula. I feel
like that's something that I've heard people say, like, you know, my goal is 100 percent breastfeeding.
But if I'm not producing enough milk if you know
baby's not growing enough if timing wise it's completely too draining i've had some friends
say like as soon as i started supplementing my mental health and like postpartum depression like
it improved and i felt so much better just when i had a little bit of help with formula so i'm
just like my goal is as much breastfeeding as i can. Yeah. Formula if it's if it needs to be there.
So I feel like that's the best plan, too, is just not being like it has to be this way.
You know, that's how I was.
I was so open to whatever.
I remember asking Stassi what kind of formula she had heard about asking Lala and stuff,
because I know eventually Lala had to start when, you know, she was splitting time and
she couldn't breastfeed 100 percent and just talking to other moms about what kind of formula. But then I was fortunate and I never had to start when you know she was splitting time and she couldn't breastfeed 100% and um just
talking to other moms about what kind of formula but then I was fortunate and I never had to yeah
but just you were a breastfeeding queen I remember your freezer you had like the most organized bags
of everything I tasted your breast milk yeah I literally the amount of times I cried over spilled
milk oh I remember didn't you have something where she wasn't drinking some of the frozen milk
and you had to mix something in or reheat it a certain way?
Yes, it was.
No, actually, I think she just started maybe drinking it after all.
But there was, I had like a high lipase factor or something.
And when I tried it, I was like, oh my God, it's gone bad. It was so bad.
I remember you panicking about it.
I don't remember what it was. If we mixed it
with fresh breast milk
or I think we had to
heat it a different way.
There was something you did slightly different.
You had to boil it before you froze it.
There was something else I did, but then she ended up
drinking it all. I remember the day
we had our last bag of frozen breast milk.
I'm like, all right, guys, this is it.
Last one.
The last one.
Aw.
But yeah, you know, a fed baby is, a healthy baby is the best baby.
Yeah.
And it doesn't matter how the baby gets fed.
That's right.
I hope I can do a lot of milk, but it's not, I'm not going to beat myself up over it.
No, totally.
And you shouldn't.
I'm so excited for you.
It's going to be wild. I you. It's going to be wild.
I know. It's going to be wild. I've only got a couple more months. I can't wait to see Jason
with a baby too. He's going to be the best. He's like such a big guy. And I'm sure you can relate
too because Brock is, but like big guy, little baby, like name a better combination. Like it's
just so cute. It's just like so cute to see somebody so strong with like somebody so like
little baby, weak, innocent thing. It's like just, I don't know. It's going to melt cute to see somebody so strong with like somebody so like little baby, weak, innocent thing.
It's like just, I don't know.
It's going to melt my heart.
I think seeing him as a dad is like one of the other things I'm like most excited for.
Yeah.
When we were at Nia and Daniel's, was it last week or the week before?
Brock's holding both of the twins.
And I think the photos are on his phone.
But he was just like, honey, give me more.
And I was like, no.
You have friends who have babies.
You got more
friends having babies on the way no yeah he can come over and hold ours they I mean they have
Neon Daniel of three under two right now so crazy I mean they're crushing it yeah I've heard their
schedule they have a really good support system with their families like they've had people coming
in and out and helping and they're doing it right but I can still they're like every 30 minutes this
one then this baby gets on the boob.
Then the next baby's on the boob.
Then we take turns, this and this.
And I'm like, oh my God, you guys are like literally juggling babies over there.
No, it's so crazy.
I can't even imagine.
Bless them for doing it and doing it so well.
It's impressive.
No, I can't even imagine having another one in the next year.
I don't know.
People always ask, you know, it's like when you get married, when are you having a baby?
And then when you have the baby, when are you having another baby?
And people just like always ask the next thing.
When do you think it stops?
After two babies, do people stop asking?
I don't think the questions ever stop, to be honest.
It's just then like one of your babies having babies, one of you retiring.
Right.
There's never an end to the what are you doing next question.
No, seriously. It's always something. There's never an end to the what are you doing next question.
No, seriously.
It's always something.
It's a lot.
K underscore lasagna.
How did you both know you were ready to have a baby?
What clicked?
Was there a moment that you guys had or?
We knew like, you know,
once we decided we wanted to get married
and, you know,
once we bought our house together,
we were like, okay, you know, we wanted to make sure we wanted the same thing so when we
entered the contract of buying our house it was sort of like all right the next steps for us that
we both agree on are like we're going to get married and then start a family Jason's turning
40 this year so he was like you know like one he's like I don't want to be too old of a dad so like
let's like get this kind of going yeah and we said we would start trying in this last summer right
after we're like, we'll start trying on the honeymoon. And both of us got to the honeymoon
and kind of looked at each other. And it was like, we did both didn't want to be the one to be like,
I'm not ready to, in case we would hurt the other person's feelings. But I was like, wow,
that kind of came up. I was like, this summer kind of came up quick, huh? And he was like, yeah, real quick, like for all the stuff we're supposed to be doing. And I was like wow that kind of came I was like this summer kind of came up quick huh and he was like yeah real quick like for all the stuff we're supposed to be doing and I was like
yeah maybe we could like you know maybe like after the honeymoon a little bit and he's like
like around the holidays and I'm like around the holidays is great yeah and so that was like we
needed those extra I think six months to really because once it was right in front of us it was
still a little scary totally and I'm glad we waited we started trying like in December like a little bit like not fully tracking all the stuff January we
started like really tracking everything and then we got pregnant in March during Scandaval so
I left Ariana's house the day after everything broke when oh my gosh that's right all of us were
like gathered around crying and screaming and like having like the craziest day. And I was like, I have to go have sex now. Oh, my God. And I like went home. It was like, Jason, we have to have sex, but I really don't want to. So we just like you're going to have to do it and just be really gentle and nice. And he was like, OK. And I was like, I know this isn't at all sexy to me. But and that was the time that worked. And when I took the pregnancy test, I was like, holy shit.
Hey, maybe there was something extra going on in your hormones that day that just woke up your body.
And normally when we were trying in previous months, the day that the ovulation test said I was ovulating, we would try to at least do it in the morning and then at night.
And that morning was when I got your phone call.
And then we all kind of gathered around and figured out like what we're going to do to support Ariana. So we didn't
do it that morning. We only did it in the evening when I got home. And it was like, I guess that
timeframe, I was like, if there's something good that came out of that whole situation,
there is a baby that was made. I think because the timing lined up that that's happened to be
the time that we had sex.
That's so crazy.
I love hearing everyone's, you know, conceiving stories, those who remember.
It's never sexy.
It's like never at all sexy.
Ours actually was.
What was yours?
So it was, well, the first time when I got pregnant, I have no idea.
I mean, we were in a relationship for five, six months.
We were having sex all the time.
No idea that time around.
But then the second time around, there were two times.
And the first time we were not sober.
We were in Palm Springs.
And there, yeah, it was a fun time.
But there was no way he could finish.
So I was like, okay, you definitely didn't.
Wow.
Then fast forward a week later, we were moving into our house in San Diego.
And the first morning we woke up, it was like, yeah, let's christen this house.
And we had the best sex.
And I was on top.
And then he was like, wait, and tried to pick me he was like and I go
you just got me pregnant didn't you and he's like no I was like you did I go you literally know this
is the time the week I'm like last week when we were having fun in Palm Springs like that was like
our one night we just like partied it was our last night that we were staying there but I was like
there was no way we made a baby that night. I was like, I think you did.
So for the next three weeks, it was kind of a mind fuck, though, because I treated myself as if I was pregnant, especially after having the miscarriage.
Before you could even test.
Right.
So for three weeks, I was like, OK, I'm not drinking.
I'm not eating this.
I'm not doing that.
And then I found out I was pregnant.
It worked.
Yeah.
But it was. That is like the I found out I was pregnant. It worked. Yeah. But it was,
that is like the sexiest one I've heard.
Yeah.
Jackson Brittany's is like,
they had 12 minutes to check out of an Airbnb and the TV was still on.
And she was like bent over and was like,
get in there.
And Jackson's like, I don't know if I could do it.
And she's like,
you can do it in 12 minutes.
Like,
trust me.
Yeah.
And they did.
And it worked.
And I'm like,
wow,
not sexy. No. Yeah. I I've heard I've heard so many
different ones but ours it's work conceiving and it really is like you have to time it out there's
a lot that really goes into it I spent my entire life thinking if I looked at a guy with abs I
might get pregnant and then I actually went to try and I was like oh this is a lot harder actually
than everybody makes it seem
everybody makes it seem like if you like even like have dry what's it called dry humping with your
like oh yeah clothes on there's still a chance that a sperm might get through both layers of
clothing and impregnate someone yeah and I'm like no it takes a lot I mean at least for us it took
a lot of actual planning and tests and like making sure everything was lined up.
And it's a scientific process.
I mean, sex can be fun and wonderful in its own way.
But planning out sex to have a baby can also kill the vibe a little bit.
Yeah. And I feel like if we do try again, that would maybe be more of the vibe if I even take the chance and get pregnant, which I'm still definitely not there.
But it was like, I had no idea. I mean, we had so much sex. I had no idea I was pregnant the first
time. And then the second time he just knew after my DNC procedure, how fertile I was going to be
in this certain week. So I said, just God be careful. If you know, we we've only been together
six months, we're moving in together. Just know this week if we have sex. And I told him that.
And then we did. And he was like, Oh,'s that we i was like she's got me pregnant yeah i love it it was the best chance we had to have a healthy baby she's perfect i feel like
recently like i feel like a couple months ago you were like absolutely no like i'm good with just
summer like i am don't even whatever but i feel like there's a little like a little ease now that
you've been like if instead of it's it's gone from like never to like if, and I'm going to take that.
Cause I want you to have another baby and time it up maybe with having a second.
I feel like the thing that would really have me start thinking about it more is when the second kids start coming around in the friend group. You know, Lala has another baby.
Elaine has another baby.
I feel like...
What about if Summer starts asking?
What if she sees that Ocean gets a baby?
Well, that's what I'm saying.
And if she starts asking, like,
Mama, Dada make baby.
Do you think she could...
I know she could melt your heart into it.
I feel like we still...
I told Brock this week,
we're going to make an appointment with my fertility doctor
and we're going to see if any of the embryos,
once we make them, are viable.
I don't know if my eggs are.
How many eggs do you have on ice right now?
I have 16.
So we need to go fertilize those, see if any are viable,
genetically test them, all of that.
That's step number one. Step number two, if none of them are good, then I would do a full round of
embryo freezing where we just immediately make the embryos instead of freezing the eggs and doing
this later. So those are the next steps. And then consider a surrogate. But I just, I don't know that I want to chance getting
pregnant again with my health syndrome. I understand that. And I, you know, that's,
I keep saying to Jason, like, let's just boom, boom, baby, baby, back to back,
get pregnant as soon as I give birth. And he's like, why don't you give birth first
and see how that goes? Because I mean, I feel like you had a pretty like, you know,
healthy, normal pregnancy with summer and then had a pretty traumatic birthing experience.
So I also fully understand like after that, like, you know, taking a beat or like not wanting to put your body through risking death again.
Exactly. I mean, I was 15, 16 hours into labor and I was so good.
I was like, oh, I see why people do this multiple times.
Even the pushing wasn't that bad.
It was just everything else that came with it
when I got on the magnesium drip, the help syndrome,
just all of that.
I'm like, I never want to go through that again.
And there's so much stuff that can happen
that you don't know about until you're like in the room,
I feel like.
Yeah.
And it's scary, you know.
Very scary.
Okay.
One more break. We'll
be right back. It is still summertime. And even though my little summer has a broken arm, she is
still all up for adventures and arts and crafts and being ambidextrous. And let me tell you, my
child inspires me. Seeing how resilient she is, I've never broken a bone in
my life, but watching her, I'm just like, yes, kid, you get it. And I feel like summer is also
not just the name of my daughter, but the season to make memories with your kids, whether you're
staying home or heading out on adventures, this is what
is so great about KiwiCo because they're inviting kids to celebrate the season of discovery through
hands-on fun. Brock is so good at doing these arts and crafts with Summer and I just love to see it
because I've not always been the craftiest. I definitely was more into writing and reading when I was younger,
but Brock is so crafty and summer definitely takes after him in this sense. KiwiCo encourages kids to
get outside and explore and keep them off their screens, which is one thing in our household
we are really trying to be better about. They have awesome projects that they have
like this bottle rocket kit that helps turn the outdoors into a playground of learning and fun.

What does she do for work?
Okay. So we were just saying one of the funniest questions that comes in, and there were several of these, but Kim Schick wants to know, what does she do for work?
work. So I've done a lot of different stuff in my life. But before I moved to Los Angeles and when I first moved here, I was a sign language interpreter. I have a degree in American
sign language interpreting and education. So I was an interpreter for a while. I managed
interpreting agency remotely for a while. After a little bit in L.A., I lived off of
savings for a little while and like was co-hosting to all this fun stuff. That was the fun part
when people I feel like when you and I would travel together, I specifically remember like being in Australia at a bar and this girl
being like, all right, Sheena, I know what you do. You're on this show. You know, I've heard your
podcast. What do you do? And I was like, oh, nothing. And she was like, I don't understand.
And I was like, I do nothing. And she was like, but how do you, and I was like, I don't know,
make it work. And it was like, so then after that year,
I took the last five years, I've been a personal or executive assistant.
The next part of your story, I want you to tell in sign language while you're talking
for those on the vlog. I'm so bad. Okay. You did this for a living.
I know, but it's been five years. After I was an interpreter, I then went back to work
as a personal assistant and worked for many different people like all over L.A.
You know, people that you would know, people that you don't know, you know, a big mix of people.
But I was a personal assistant always running around for somebody.
And then I had just quit my job.
I was matched with somebody.
You work with agencies to get personal assisting jobs.
So I was with somebody for a very long time and then started a kind of a new path.
I pretty quickly knew with the most recent person that it has to be a really good personal match.
You have to like really vibe with the person, like the way your work ethic and schedules and stuff and the way you do things, you can tell
pretty quickly, like within like a month, I would say, like if it's going to work or not. So I knew
that this person, I was like, we're not, we don't work the same. Like this, I'm not going to be good
at this. They're not going to like my style. I don't like how they do things. So I just, I was
like, let's, God, I wish you could say who it was. Those NDAs really get you. But I was like, this isn't a good match. Like broke that
off. And then I got pregnant like two weeks into it. And I was like, oh, it's okay. I'll like
find another job, you know, that'll be good. And I was so wiped out the first trimester that Jason
and I had to sit down conversation where it was like, he was like, take some time off. Like we're
okay. So it's a weird place. You're so lucky. lucky I'm so grateful but it's also a weird thing you
know like I've never I have still have my own money from savings I've worked my entire life
so I haven't gotten to the point where I have to ask Jason to pay my credit card bill or anything
like on my end yet like he's paying our mortgages and for our desert house and our house here he's
taking on the big stuff but like I don't have to go to him if I want to like order McDonald's
Postmates breakfast uh-huh like I can put that on my card oh yeah for now we'll see like I think I got another year of that
left maybe perfect but for right now he's like the breadwinner in our household and I'm super
grateful for that that I have gotten to take the time off while pregnant and kind of like explore
some fun like side projects and different things being able to like come and co-host again
and like not have to worry about like taking off work
or like saying, no, I can't take off work.
So right now I'm kind of floating by again.
I love that.
It is the best though.
I mean, I was pregnant, you know, in the pandemic
for most of 2020, I was pregnant.
I lived in San Diego.
I didn't do anything.
You're so lucky that you didn't have people,
that there was no clubs or bars. No music festivals. Hot tequila breath in San Diego. I didn't do anything. You're so lucky that you didn't have people, that there was no clubs or bars.
No music festivals.
Hot tequila breath in your face.
Nothing.
I literally missed nothing.
But the other thing, like, you know,
you just had COVID and you're pregnant.
That was terrifying for me.
I feel like this time around,
I wouldn't have been as scared.
I'm happy.
It's like, if it was like when it was first
happening yeah there was a lot more questions about it this time I called my doctor and she
was like hey as long as it's just basic cold symptoms you're okay she was like there was a
lot I couldn't like normally when I get sick I drug myself up I'm like call my doctor I'm like
give me that scissor up give me whatever good stuff I'm like what's the strongest thing you
could give me I like very much sound like an addict when I call my doctor. I'm like, what's the strongest thing you could give me? I very much
sound like an addict when I call my doctor when I'm sick. Cause I'm such a baby. So this time it
was like, I could not, she was like, you can have three Tylenol a day maxed out at this many
milligrams. So there I am like taking my one in the morning and then stretching it out and being
like how long until I can wait to take the second one. And I'm like, this sucks. So that part was like not fun that I couldn't like get all druggy high
from when I had COVID.
But so pregnant was different, but it was safe.
And a lot of people, Nia reached out to me.
She was like, I had COVID with the twins
when I was pregnant.
Everything ended up being okay.
She's like, don't stress yourself out.
So between talking to my doctor and friends,
I was like, okay.
And it really was short.
And this is the third short. And I've,
this is the third fricking time I've had COVID and that was by far the easiest and shortest.
Like, I don't know. I think we were sick for like four days, both Jason and I.
Totally.
We were stuck together again, which was like, oh my God.
Well, you're going to be when you have a baby.
We were like, what do we talk about? Like, do we have anything in common? Do we like anything? We were out of shows to watch and we were just staring at each other and I were like, what do we talk about? Do we have anything in common? Do we like anything? We
were out of shows to watch. We were just staring at each other and I'm like, oh, your face.
Well, he's, he's got a good face. He does have a good face. He's got a good face. Yeah. He's
got the abs. He got you pregnant. He sure did. I did see another comment that came in from
Claudia J. Perry. Oh, that's my mother.
She said, you girls can just talk about how wonderful your mothers are.
We do love our moms.
So when is she moving out here?
So we're finishing our garage that's unattached from our house into a little guest apartment that's going to be like 400 square feet.
Right now we're waiting for the permits to get approved.
They should be approved like in the next month.
As soon as they're approved, we're breaking ground like immediately. We're also doing a pool. But both of these things
are supposed to be done. Our contractor swears like he's like, I'm aiming for your due date or
like it should be finishing right as the baby's getting here. OK. Contractors, I feel like never
fully, you know, get stuff done. I really like our guy he's with neo builders seems joe he's
awesome but he is promising like around our baby due date we're like if we have to have my mom get
an airbnb for the first month that's fine but by the end of the year everything should be done
project wise so that my mom can move out here and then she can raise this baby for me
how do jason and your mom get along really well really really well my mom's
very your my mom and your mom are very similar like in the sense that like and brock and jason
are very different that's why i asked but my mom's like very much like i can be like you're making me
a little crazy can you like we're very close where i can be like you're making me crazy can you leave
me alone a little bit or like like i can be very honest with her my almost doesn't want to be
around all the time she's very independent and like she makes be very honest with her. My almost doesn't want to be around all the time. She's very independent.
And like, she makes friends very easily.
Like, I'm afraid that we're going to move her here to help with the baby.
And then I'm going to call her and be like, where are you?
And then she'll be like, oh, Erica, Lisa and I are like out at this band or like we're
watching or like there's a play opening or this restaurant opening.
Like my mom always finds all these things to do.
Yeah.
So I'm not so much worried about her being like intrusive in our lives.
I'm more like, you know that you're coming here to help with the baby, right?
You can't be like miss social out here.
And like she's already made such good friends with your mom, like Lala's mom.
All the moms out here she already has like a little crew with.
I love that.
So yeah, I think and Jason, my mom laughed together a lot.
I think he was nervous at first of having his mother-in-law live a hundred feet behind his
house. Yeah. But I think the more time they've spent together and when my mom's here, she's like
doing her dishes help. She's like, oh, I pulled your laundry out. I didn't know where, you know,
some of this stuff went, but I folded everything or like, she just does little stuff where I'm like,
oh, that's awesome actually. And she like helps herself to things like we don't really have to host her.
So I think that the more she's visited, the more he's like, oh, yeah, this is really nice
to have extra hands of help.
And it's the best when you have your baby being taken care of by the grandma because
you can trust your mom 100 percent.
It is such a big help.
So I'm really happy that she's able to
move out here to help you
I don't know what I would have done with my mom
still you know it's like we're currently
looking for a nanny slash teacher
just to have someone else because
we just need more help than just my mom
there's also things sometimes I want
all of us to do together and we're like well we can't
if it's after 8pm so
we're still looking for someone to help out.
The girl we have right now is great,
but she's not super available.
So like last week she was only available one day.
And then when it came to that day,
it was Friday.
We forgot she was even available Friday.
Then Brock was swamped Friday.
I was,
I had interviews and we realized that like 4 PM.m. on Friday we're like shit we
could have called Gabby I was like damn it I didn't realize today was Friday and it's Friday
but no yeah having the mom is the best that's like I've seen how especially you and Lala have
your moms close by and the relationship I had a super close relationship with my grandparents
growing up so seeing how your kids are with their grandparents and just how at ease
you guys seem versus some other people when they're like, oh, I'm leaving. Like Jackson,
Brittany have a great babysitter that they've used, but they check in a lot more with the
babysitter compared to like when Sherry, Brittany's mom is here, they seem like they can kind of
disconnect more. And so I'm like, the trick is the grandma that's like the that's the secret sauce here definitely
oh well I'm so happy for you and just where you're at in life you are literally glowing and this is
a fun little little kiki yeah I love it yeah I love it so just a reminder you guys check out
