This Week's Parenting Wins: Celebrating the Small (But Actually Huge) Moments

Image
  "Some weeks feel like survival mode. But this week?  This week had some wins worth celebrating... and I'm taking a moment to soak them in before the next diaper blowout or meltdown over the 'wrong' cup." The Milestones That Make Your Heart Melt My win:  My daughter waved for the first time this week. Not just a random hand flail, an actual, intentional wave goodbye to her dad. And then she did it again. And again. I may have teared up. She's also decided that "uh-oh" is her new favorite phrase. Everything is "uh-oh." Dropped her toy? Uh-oh. Knocked over her sippy cup? Uh-oh. Had the dogs eat from her hands...  "uh-oh" (I love this stage). The best part?  She's not just babbling, she's  talking to me . Making eye contact, waiting for my reaction, trying to tell me things in her own little language. We're having conversations, and even though I understand maybe 10% of what she's saying, it feels awesome. And physic...

New Year, New Adventures: Making Space for the Memories to Come

BUBS New Year Update

Hey there, BUBS family!

Can you believe it's 2025 already? Hope you all had an amazing holiday season with your little ones!

Some Big News... 

I've got to share something super exciting... We just welcomed a little one to the world! Yep, I'm back in the sleep-deprived parents club now with our beautiful baby girl. These past few weeks have been a wild ride of midnight feeds, figuring out diaper changes, and soaking in all those newborn snuggles. 

Talk about hands-on research for Hello Bubs, right? 

You All Rock! 

December was huge for us. So many of you reached out with amazing suggestions and feedback about the app. We're seriously blown away by how engaged and helpful you all are! Not gonna lie, between baby cuddles and catching whatever sleep we can, development has been moving a bit slower than usual (fellow parents, you know how it goes!). 

But don't worry, we're going through every single piece of feedback you've sent our way.

What's Cooking? 

Even with the new baby chaos, our awesome team is plugging away at some cool updates based on what you've told us. We're working on:

  • Making the app easier to navigate (because who has time for complicated menus with a baby, right?)
  • Adding more ways to customize your tracking (because every baby is different!)
  • Tweaking things here and there based on your suggestions We'll be rolling these out bit by bit over the next few weeks. 
*No rushing. We want to make sure everything works just right for you all.

Looking Ahead 

 

I've got to say, I'm getting back into my groove with the baby. But there's so much new techniques I've learned, that I jot down notes between diaper changes about features I wish I had right now (usually at 3 AM). There's nothing like living it to really understand what could make parents' lives easier. Thanks for sticking with us and being the most amazing community we could ask for. Your messages and support mean everything, especially during this crazy wonderful time. 

Here's to an awesome 2025 – may it be filled with lots of baby giggles, tiny victories, and maybe even a full night's sleep! (Hey, we can dream, right?) 

Catch you soon!

Founder, Hello BUBS

Real Talk: Parenting Wins and Struggles of 2024

Image
Parents, You're the Real MVPs Let’s get real for a second. Parenting is a journey filled with moments of joy and others where we’re just trying to survive the day. As we wrap up 2024, it’s the perfect time to look back on the wins, the struggles, and everything in between. The Wins The first steps, words, or new hobbies your little one mastered. The meals where no one cried (yes, even the grown-ups). The unexpected moments of connection that made your heart melt. Sometimes, the biggest win is simply getting through the day. And that deserves to be celebrated. The Struggles The sleepless nights that felt endless. The meltdowns (from kids and parents). The constant juggling act of schedules, emotions, and responsibilities. If 2024 taught us anything, it’s that the struggles are just as much a part of parenting as the wins. They remind us we’re human, we’re trying our best, and we’re not alone. ...
