What's up everyone welcome back to the Trying 2 Parent Podcast! This is Episode 52, and things are getting festive—Christmas vibes are slowly creeping in with decorations lighting up the neighborhood.

We had a meeting with our infinite banking specialist, and soon, our policy will be good to go. On the furry friend front, Nina’s had her blood work done for a teeth cleaning and got herself a massive new tennis ball—it has a squeaker?
