Episodes

Ep1: Pilot Episode:
Shawn becomes slightly jealous of how Kellie gets off of work for maternity leave while he works. Yet he soon changes his mind, after realizing how much work Kellie has to do with their son, Tristan. The Greenes have the Petersons over for dinner one night.

Ep2: Over A Cup:
Jodie and Kellie go out for a cup of coffee, with the boys. Jodie shares some of her personal tricks of parenting. Shawn decides he wants to go back and get his GED and graduate high school (after dropping out at age 17).

Ep3: Shawn's Got An Idea:
Shawn announces his plans of graduating (after 7 years) to Kellie. Kellie is happy for her hubby, then realizes he might not be able to work school into his schedule.

Ep4: Visiting Pros:
Jodie's visiting older sister, Pam (Courtney Thorne-Smith) offers advice to a advice-wanting Kellie. Since Pam has three kids of her own, she is considered a "pro" at parenting. Mark and Shawn watch the football game together at the local bar.

Ep5: Living It Up:Part One
Shawn and Kellie offer to take Rory for the night, as Mark and Jodie go out to celebrate their 3rd wedding anniversary. Kellie realizes she has a cold and doesn't want to pass it on to the boys. With the Petersons out and Kellie is away from the boys due to her cold, Shawn is forced to look after the boys alone for the night. Shawn decides he can't handle it and asks the single neighbor lady, Bonnie (Teri Garr) to help him out with Rory and Tristan.

Ep6: Living It Up:Part Two
Kellie decides she is feeling better and decides to come back home (at the same time as Mark and Jodie come by to pick up Rory). Kellie, Jodie, and Mark witness that Shawn is nowhere to be found and left the boys with Bonnie. Shawn returns (from the store-picking up more diapers). Kellie and the Petersons assume Shawn just left Bonnie in charge of the kids as he went out for a drink-yet they all soon learn Shawn went out for more diapers and left Bonnie with the kids. They each apologize to Shawn and thank Bonnie.

Ep7: Back to Work:
Kellie goes back to work after her maternity leave is over. Kellie and Shawn decide to have Jodie watch Tristan while they are working, since she is a stay-at-home mom and is watching Rory anyways.

Ep8: Mark's Birthday:
Jodie, Shawn, and Kellie put together a surprise 30th birthday party for Mark. Mark is not a fan of his birthdays. Shawn accidently spills the beans about the party to him, resulting in Kellie and Jodie being angry with Shawn for telling Mark, and Mark being upset with Jodie for having party after she knows he hates parties.
