Do Three Kids Really Change Things? Vito and Liz Get Real About Parenting, Marriage, and Sex Life
So, does adding a third kid really turn your world upside down? Vito and Liz are diving headfirst into the chaos and joy that comes with expanding their family in this candid and hilarious episode. Spoiler alert: Things change—and not always in the ways they expected.
When you have one kid, it's a whole new adventure of sleepless nights, diaper changes, and the overwhelming joy of watching them grow. Add a second, and suddenly it’s double the trouble, double the cuteness, and definitely double the laundry. But three? That’s a whole new ball game. Vito and Liz are ready to get real about what it’s like to juggle three little ones, maintain a relationship, and, yes—try to keep the romance alive.
In this episode, they tackle the big question: Does three kids really change things? From parenting dynamics to their marriage to their sex life (yes, that’s right, we’re going there), Vito and Liz leave no stone unturned. It’s raw, it’s relatable, and it’s downright funny.
Parenting with Three: Chaos, Love, and More Chaos
The first thing you notice when you add a third kid to the mix is the sheer volume. Whether it’s the noise, the mess, or the amount of snacks needed at any given moment, things escalate quickly. Vito and Liz share some of the hilarious moments that come with trying to wrangle three little humans at once, from the constant juggling act of making sure everyone is fed, happy, and not fighting over the last popsicle. Spoiler: It doesn’t always go as planned.
But despite the challenges, there’s something magical about having three kids. Sure, it’s a circus, but it’s their circus. They reflect on the unique bond that’s created between siblings and how watching their kids interact with each other brings a new level of joy to their lives. Even if that means dealing with more tantrums, more messes, and more questions than they ever thought possible.
Marriage in the Trenches: The Balancing Act
Let’s be honest: Parenthood can be a strain on any marriage. Between balancing careers, housework, and trying to carve out time for each other, it’s easy for romance to get lost in the shuffle. Add a third child, and you might find yourself really wondering when the last time you had a date night was (and no, “watching Netflix with the baby monitor on” doesn’t count).
Vito and Liz explore how their marriage has shifted since becoming parents of three. While it’s a lot of work, they admit that it’s also forced them to get creative about how they stay connected. From sneaky “date nights” in the living room after the kids are in bed to making time for meaningful conversations (without the constant interruptions), they share how they keep their marriage strong while riding the rollercoaster of parenthood.
Sex Life? Let’s Talk About It.
Let’s get to the juicy part: How does having three kids affect their sex life? Vito and Liz dive into the reality of intimacy in the whirlwind of parenting. Let’s face it—when you’re chasing after toddlers, cleaning up messes, and trying to squeeze in a few hours of sleep, the idea of a spontaneous rendezvous feels like a distant memory.
But that doesn’t mean the spark is gone. Vito and Liz get candid about the adjustments they’ve had to make, the importance of staying connected in every sense of the word, and how they’ve found ways to prioritize their physical relationship, even if it means getting a little creative. No topic is off-limits as they explore the ups and downs of keeping their relationship intimate when the demands of parenthood are at their highest.
Laughter, Love, and Real Talk
At the end of the day, Vito and Liz are just like any other couple trying to navigate the messiness of life, love, and parenthood. In this episode, they prove that even when things get overwhelming, laughter is often the best way to cope. From the moments that make them want to pull their hair out to the moments that fill their hearts with joy, Vito and Liz remind us that the journey through parenthood—and through marriage—isn’t always easy, but it’s always worth it.
So, does three kids change things? Absolutely. But as Vito and Liz show, it doesn’t have to be a bad thing. It’s an adventure, it’s a challenge, and it’s a whole lot of love—and they wouldn’t have it any other way. Tune in for this fun, heartfelt, and totally honest episode that will make you laugh, nod in agreement, and maybe even give your partner a little extra love tonight.
