Sarah (aka Sarah the Pool Girl) drops some big news—she and her husband Andrew are expecting a baby in February! The conversation takes a wild ride from pregnancy excitement to pool safety, splash pad water systems, childhood hamster revenge plots, and why puddle jumpers might not be the best option for teaching kids to swim.
