Jordan meeting her new baby sister for the first time.

Jordan: I don't like her.
Me: Why not?
Jordan: She's too small. I need her to be bigger.

Fair, tbh

Welcomed our second daughter through surrogacy a few days ago. So grateful to science and our amazing surrogate for allowing us to grow our family. How wild. 🙏🏽❤️

PS. If you’re curious about surrogacy, I’m very open about our experience. DM me and I’m happy to chat!

One of the biggest benefits to writing letters to my daughter is that I also get email documentation of so many great moments in my life as a mom. I send her photos and videos too and they're all in my sent inbox. So I get to read them and relive some of my favorite moments 🥰 Highly recommend it.

If you’ve had to fly with a newborn (under 1 month), any tips? How was the experience?

You know what surprises me most about having a kid? That I want to spend all my time with her. I always assumed if I was ever a parent, I'd miss having me time and I'd always want a break, but I spend all my me time missing her! Even took her to our ten year wedding anniversary trip lol

Is there a good reason why kids yogurt pouches only come with 4 pouches? Why don't they give you enough for the whole school week??

The older I get the longer my life feels, like as time passes I feel like I also have more time. Does that make sense? Does anyone else feel that way?

It took a while (mainly due to the huge quantity of data collected on some questions!), but the #StateOfHTML 2025 survey results are now live!

Big thanks to @lea.verou.me who not only designed the original survey back in 2023, but then came back this year to update it.

CSS `random()`, now in Safari 26.2.

Play around with it while waiting for other browsers to ship.
Wasn't expecting how much fun random() is, it really opens up a ton of pure CSS creative possibilities.

Now you need custom functions, which combined with random() will enable all sorts of distributions, Perlin noise and more 😇
