Description

Not one but TWO new Carpool babies are on board for this celebratory episode! Tune in for a full report on family baby announcements and Kelly and Lizz's early pregnancy symptoms.

Shout out to @themomfluencer on IG for today's millennial word of the day, 
"Do it for the plot," which is the new—and much cooler—way of saying 'yolo.'

In driveway dumps Kelly and Lizz talk about detoxing your home. Lizz finished her first candle to get rid of artificial fragrances and Kelly and her kids have switched to The Primal Kitchen ketchup. Lizz shares her backsplash project progress and Kelly updates us on her fish fry bar-baking journey. Her three-staple recipes are yet to be found for biscuits, cookies, and lemon bars.

Got pregnancy brain? Then chances are you'll end up forgetting a thing or two, like when to cancel that trial subscription you started. Stop wasting your money on things you don't use, like sneaky subscriptions that pile up so quickly. Put them all in one place and easily cancel the ones you’re not using with Rocket Money. This personal finance app can also monitor spending and help you lower your bills—all in one, easy-to-use place.

Last three transactions
Lizz kicks off the last three transactions segment with her car seat purchase for Mattie's truck, the Britax Poplar. This seat is easy to install and get tight, even if you've got three across. She's also picked up a hot glue gun to get her wicks just right for candle making and a retractable baby gate to keep James safe around the stairs. Kelly is excited about the lifetime lockers that have arrived for her new garage and is less thrilled about needing to order magnesium lotion for her pregnancy arthritis. Lastly, Primally Pure Skincare is on it's way after Kelly took their quiz and ordered the whole kit!

Rivian's R2 reveal brings us a cute little SUV that starts at $45K. In industry news, Kelly shares that they also had a surprise R3 reveal along with it. And if you're actually shopping at the New York Auto Show, check out group tours with Scotty from 'A Girl's Guide to Cars'!

The last three meals Kelly made are bringing get-it-on-the-table inspiration so you can ditch the drive-through. Ham, mac and cheese, and Car Mom broccoli; Chicken Ceasar wraps with Just Bare chicken nuggets, Trader Joe's white rice, and a Caesar salad mix; and Trader Joe's beef kebabs with rice, cucumbers, peppers, tomatoes, feta, lime, red onion, and tzatziki sauce.
