Wake. Feed. Wrangle toddlers. Curl hair. Watch The Good Wife. Give Fred a life of infant luxury. That’s Kelly’s maternity leave so far. Oh — and let’s not forget nursing while podcasting!
If you’re posting attention grabbing yet vague statuses on social media, or annoyed by someone else who does, you might find today’s millennial word of the day — ‘soft launching’ — useful.
Lizz is bringing back another feral freeway — her counterpart to Kelly’s driveway dump — where she tells us about the reels she watched this week and viral trends she’s following. Up this week are tart cherry juice for sleep, doubting that makeup influencers are really in such a rush, and the 10 pumps of foundation trend. 
Kelly’s sharing her favorite newborn baby products in her driveway dump today. She couldn’t live without The Shusher, her Halo bassinet, Kyte PJs, and muslin washcloths for Fred. Katie Perry is hopping on the mocktail train and Kelly’s ready for a taste drive. A Dyson airwrap recap reveals how Kelly really feels about the (dispensable) hair tool. And Kelly and Lizz answer the question: Is Target overrated lately?
Giving equal parts family-essentials and personal splurges, Kelly and Lizz share their last three transactions. Lizz purchased a new pair of the only shoes she wears — Hokas, a washable nursery rug from Rug USA, and maternity biker shorts from Amazon. Kelly went all out with her Tupperware sippy cup buy, matching Hill House dresses for her and Hattie, and a tripod she picked up after being inspired by @cecilybauchmann’s everyday content on Instagram. 
When it comes to height and confidence Lizz has always been the six foot girl wearing six inch stilettos while you’ll catch Kelly slouching in the corner. On today’s advice segment, the gals give a mom advice on how to support and celebrate her tall five year old. 
Today’s ditch the drive-through comes from Britney — an orange chicken dish that comes together quickly. You’ll need a frozen snap pea stir fry mix from Walmart, chicken, Top Ramen, and Panda Express orange chicken sauce to pull this one off!
In short and sweet industry news, Consumer Reports names their Top 10 picks of 2023 Cars and include the Toyota Corolla Hybrid, Subaru Forester, and Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid in their lineup.
