I 10000% agree i work in retail and we have already set up Christmas and while I enjoy setting everything up and seeing all the new stuff. The “fun” is sucked completely out of the holidays because retail and corporate push the dates back further and further

this is what a happy family looks like. You can tell your kids are so secure because of yall's effort to be there present with them!! Look at you making your home a safe place for your kids to thrive and grow in! God bless you

I just wanted to share that with my second child (my daughter) we were starting getting horror sleep these days and we just ended up switching her to a big girl bed. Which i was very nervous too because i waited longer with my first child. And now there barely any fuss at bedtime and she sleeps better. Maybe it could help you too 🤍

You never know about the black hair. My daughter came out with black hair and now its a honey brown with blonde highlights.

I started balling when you opened up about the lack of sleep. My daughter is a couple months younger than Ekko and what you were describing is literally my life, every night. The sleep deprivation makes it a struggle just doing normal things and mind is just a complete blur after so many restless nights. I’m no where near the mom I know I can or want to be. I plan on calling my daughter’s doctor Monday to see if we can be referred to a pediatric sleep specialist (idk if there is even one in the area… I’m just so desperate at this point!) I always find comfort in watching your videos but this one really hit home. I really appreciate you being so honest about everything. I hope things get better for you guys soon & please keep us updated with any helpful tips or tricks that end up working 🤞🏼♥️

Do you have a night light for Ekko? I use a red light with my 2 1/2 year old. I also let her sleep with all her stuff animals. Have you looked into the sensory activities before bed. It’s something to do with like pressure points or something, I have not done this but I’ve come across a few videos suggesting this.

Would you consider sleeping with her? I know people avoid it because they don’t want to create that habit, but it really helped me get better sleep during our 2 year old sleep regression.

Link for the clip?! ❤

Love your nails! 🌸

Gosh I can totally relate to the feeling behind! I feel like the fact that soooo many people are sharing Christmas trees in September 😮‍💨 I totally get it that things sell out fast and you need to create content ahead of time but 😅oof the Christmas in SEPTEMBER is a bit much

CUTE!!!

Both my boys since birth have never slept thru the night and have always woke up multiple times no matter what I do. Lol 🙃 welcome to my life.

The little ghost screensaver…. Best decor idea I’ve seen in a while!! So adorable!

Your advice that everything is a season and to know your season became my mantra and really helped me get through the hardest parts of the newborn stage and the 4 month sleep regression. So take your own advice and be easy on yourself in this hard season. You're an INCREDIBLE mama and you will get through this and you will sleep again!

Need to know where you got the costumes. I got a Spider-Man one for my 4 yr old and super good quality but it was $70! Lol I need one for my little guy but don’t wanna spend another $70-80

Loved this vlog so so much!!! My boy is going to have a playroom for the first time when we move next week and you just got me way too pumped!! 😆

I feel you on the lack of sleep 🫠 I have 3 kids, May 2020, April 2022 and Feb 2024. That’s why I enjoy watching you since our older two are same age. Basically my firstborn was a great sleeper until randomly one night around 2.5 yo started coming into our room every single night to the point that we gave up. Two months ago we had the older two start sharing a room since the baby needed the nursery. It has been a game changer, my older one stopped coming into our room. I was soo nervous about them having share the room but they absolutely love it. I know you have a cute room for both but maybe that’s an option? I honestly feel like there’s some type of sleep regression that happens when they are 2/3 years old. Just keep reminding yourself that they are little for only a bit and one day they won’t need you at night. Sorry I’m rambling haha

I miss you !!! Get so eso when I got the notification!!!

Yay! So happy to see a video pop up for you. 🎉 favorite, I started watching before Rocky was born as my toddler is just a little younger ❤

Lack of sleep is literally the worst thing ever!! My 9 month old hasn’t slept longer than a two and half hour stretch since he was born and I feel like everyday I’m in survival mode. I was feeling bad I hadn’t done boo baskets for my kids but then reminded myself they are little they won’t remember the one year they didn’t get one.

My son's 3rd birthday was also spidey and his amazing friends. He loves birthday parties, he always has, he gets that from my husband. I'm more of a want to go above and beyond for just us, something small and take them somewhere fun. Everything came out amazing!

I’ve missed your videos!

Love your videos

Seems like so much people are in a rush for fall that they forget to enjoy summer! I live in Florida so we consider September still summer

I love your videos. Am I Old? Why does everybody tap make up products? It kind of drive me nuts lol

Missed your vlogs! Hope you all had a great time at the beach getaway for rocky boys bday! ❤

Lack of sleep is the worst! You probably have, but has the pediatrician checked for ear infection or something maybe going on medically? Hopefully it's just a phase and done with soon!

Glad you’re back! Sometimes breaks are necessary, even if they’re unintentional. Also your videos always make me want to start my own KZbin channel 😅

Finally my fave youtuber is back!!!

Missed you!

Hi 🤍love your vlogs! would you be able to link the things for ekkos bday on LTK ? Wanna do a puppy party for my baby girl as well!

missed your vlogs! can’t wait to watch this during nap time :)

Stunning job!❤

Ahhhhhh it made my day to see you using the journal!!!! 💛💛💛 Thanks for the amazing video as always!

You were so brave!

Sad beige mom ewww

Can I just ask..what’s the rush? Why force your body to start labor when it’s not ready🥺 seems so unnecessary!

How long do you typically stay at the gym?

So so so helpful thank you!!! 🙏🏻🩷

This is abusive . There is evidence BASED that babies CANNOT SELF SOOTHE at this young infancy age. It only produces stress hormones in their bodies which causes soooo many other issues for baby. Very sad. Poor development, emotional and mental stress and strain on babies nervous system. That is more evidence based than this poor sleep training method. You’re only traumatizing your baby and teaching him that he’s unsafe and insecure.

wow! you are so aesthetic and clean can you share the recipe please huge fan

YES! For me that happens to be cleaning my kitchen counters all for myself to enjoy. I clean the house for everyone, but I really clean the kitchen for me lol. Nothing better than my view out the sink window when it’s all clean :) Also my oldest stopped napping at 2.5 and its now been a whole month of my *21 month old* not napping, so I do all of my things when they’re playing together in one of their rooms! So even if your kids don’t nap, doesnt mean no more “free time”

That is why we should love and respect our mother

Your vlogs are amazing! I'm really looking forward to the next ones!

Has your husband been spending to much time maining a magical girl??

Where did you get Ekko’s Spider-Man costume? The black one?! Looks good quality

Where is Rocky’s paw patrol outfit from?! He’s such a cutie.

Thank you so much for sharing this. I was faced with the climb-out stage much earlier than I anticipated and I'm freaking out a little. This was very helpful.

Did you prime the dresser prior to painting?
