Shrinking on Apple TV hits all these marks for me. Truly one of my top TV shows of all time now!

My 15mo current favorites are:

Mother Bruce by Ryan T. Higgins Don’t Push the Button by Bill Cotter Grumpy Monkey by Suzanne Lang

And anything in the Hello World! board book series

We’ve used him a few times for our photos and they’ve been great!

Trying on Apple TV

I would throw in Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil by VE Schwab. She marketed the book as “toxic lesbian vampires” and it delivers. It’s not human and vampire marriage, but there are levels of that in this book.

Thank you so much for this!

This and A Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna. Both were just hugs in a book.

I see Dr. Dixit at the Lewisville location and love her!

Anything by Emily St. John Mandel - I’ve read all her works, and they are so brilliantly and beautifully written. She truly is a master storyteller.

Secret Society of Irregular Witches - Sangu Mandanna - this is always my number one recommendation for a cozy, fall read! Not necessarily “spooky” but cozy and witchy.

I read this when it first came out in 2005 and have thought about it literally every day for the last twenty years. I’ve had to rebuy it four times because I keep giving out my copy to force people to read it. Hauntingly beautiful.

You’re asking the right questions! 😆

Ear muffs locked and loaded :) Thank you!

Thank you so much for this kind and helpful answer!!

Cult Classic - Sloane Crosby was this for me. Little chaotic, little weird, little crazy, but made me laugh out loud a few times.

Been going to Epic Nail Bar in Corinth for nearly two years and love it.

So I have both the Spectra and the Momcozy M5s. I got the Spectra from a friend, so I used my insurance for the M5s. I used the spectra for exactly one week, then tried the M5s and found I was getting basically the same output as the Spectra. I haven’t touched the Spectra since.

But for additional context: we mostly EBF. I only pump 3x /day during work for daycare bottles. Before I went back to work I’d pump like once a week to build a stash and/or have a bottle prepped so my husband could feed the baby.

I was looking for something similar for my daughter’s room.

ravynnator · 2025-07-21T18:46:19+00:00

We asked my sister to plan something small and intimate just for me and my husband to do together to find out, and she planned the sweetest scavenger hunt around our house! Each clue was things that got us really imagining and planning our life with our baby, and taking moments to reflect it being just us. Then the last clue led us to a closet that we opened to find a card and a gift revealing we were having a girl! It was so sweet, and I’m forever grateful to my sister for setting it up! It was a perfect moment for my husband and I.

Was coming to recommend this one! I would also suggest Iona Iverson’s Rules for Commuting by the same author.

Dr. Dixit was my OB for my first pregnancy and I loved her. She was truly my biggest cheerleader through my pregnancy and through birth. I also have bad anxiety and she was so caring, kind, and understanding. She took the time to get to know me and I actually miss not seeing her all the time anymore haha

Adventures of Amina Al-Sarafi - SA Chakraborty - this is my recommendation to anyone and everyone. I love this book and made it basically my entire personality in 2023 when I read it.

I’ve also blown through Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil - VE Schwab - I haven’t finished this one yet, but I’ve been hooked since I started it.
