Show Notes
The moms are catching up! Jill, Melissa, and Kelly are covering everything from family milestones to pop culture and sports. They recap Riley’s baby shower—where Jill had plenty of input—and look ahead to Brooke’s upcoming bridal shower, with Kelly officially on deck next.
The conversation takes a turn to football as they break down the Steelers’ tough playoff loss and share their thoughts on what the team needs to do moving forward. Melissa gives an update on Maddie and Kenzie’s upcoming movies, and introduces the newest member of the family: an adorable new puppy named Penny Lane.
Plus, the moms chat about how this generation seems to eat so much healthier than they did, how their kids’ habits have changed over the years, and even tackle the all-important question—what do you wear to the theater these days?

More from Dear Dance Mom...
Kelly is recapping Brooke’s church wedding, and let’s just say, once a Dance Mom, ALWAYS a Dance Mom! From the wedding cake she made as a gift turning out beautifully to coming to the rescue with a glue gun, Kelly was ready to save the day. Jill is also in full-on grandma mode, putting together a crib all by herself and creating a nursery for baby Chance (with a little Pottery Barn splurge, of course!). Plus, the moms weigh in on Brooke’s new haircut, which Jill thinks looks so classy.
Jill, Kelly, and Melissa are wondering what happened to the world as they knew it. From how much harder it is for this generation to buy a home to phones that seem to read your mind, the moms reflect on how much life has changed and what the future might look like for their grandkids. Will there be flying cars? And how is the time flying by so fast?!
Jill, Melissa and Kelly cover a little bit of everything in this episode! Jill is going blonder and looking for recommendations on how to take better care of her hair, while her Steelers attire sparks a conversation about how football can set the mood in the entire house. They may not care if the Steelers win, but they definitely want them to play well. The moms also look back at some of the things that happened on Dance Moms that simply wouldn’t fly today, including things Abby said that they believe can stick with kids for the rest of their lives. A random round of “Thuffering Thucatash” sends them on one of many hilarious detours. Melissa has one very specific request for the future of technology: the Jetsons-style machine that instantly does your hair and makeup. Meanwhile, Jill shares all about her recent trip to Scottsdale and how impressed she is with Kalani’s new studio and her dancers.
Jill is officially in her grandma era! She catches Melissa and Kelly up on her recent travel chaos, helping each of her kids, and soaking up every minute with baby Chance. The moms talk about Riley’s decision to hire a sleep coach and how a strict sleep routine is working wonders, leading to a hilarious conversation about just how different parenting is today—from carefully planned schedules and ingredient lists to chemical-free cleaning products. Kelly even shares an embarrassing story about her questionable parenting skills that even she can't believe today!
This week, Jill, Melissa and Kelly catch up on all the big changes happening in their lives! Brooke is in New York and getting to spend some time with Kenzie as she prepares for her Broadway debut. Jill is getting ready to head to Arizona with Kendall as Charlotte prepares to move back home. Jill is sad to see Charlotte leave, but knows it’s time for her to get back to work and start this next chapter.
