A Relaxing Day At Home With A Toddler & Making Vegan Burritos! | Home Vlog!

Today's vlog is a relaxing day at home! We start the day by making breakfast with Jackson and then lunch. We also talk about some new parenting techniques we're working on with Jackson to try to work on independence and making choices through out the day. It's really working well and and he's liking being in charge of some of the activities through out his day. Then Jackson goes down for his nap and we talk about some Disney Cruise Line news updates. After he wakes up we play in his play area and we talk about some of the fun new things that he's been doing, he's started asking where things come from so that's been a fun way to learn new things for all of us! Then daddy and buddy play in the pool for a little bit because the weather has been so great today! Then they go to the playground before dinner. Then we made some vegan burritos for dinner, they were pretty good too! Then we get Jackson ready for bed and call it night. We had a great night hanging out at home and we hope you had fun hanging out with us too! Thank you for watching and we'll see you tomorrow with a new vid!

“Did you really take a bite of his cookie?!” “Yea, he’s sharing!” The most Dad thing ever said 😂😂

[@sheilabrooks4764]

“You can’t just eat butter!” is the most toddler mom thing to say lol lol lol

[@anneahlefeld1989]

When my son was Jackson 's age my husband worked late night shifts at Applebee's ( with some light drinking after work). Anyway one time he worked that night, I was in at my job at 7 a.m. , he set little man up with a cup of juice on the coffee table , a bowl of dry cereal as he fell asleep on the couch. Well Dad rolled over and there was my son with the tub of butter with every large utensil sticking out of it . He had his feet propped on the table licking a big spoon of " buddy"

[@karakaspar1791]

Me to me everyday

[@Brangelito94]

I was literally coming here to say the same thing! I love it!!!

[@elliemarney9673]

I used to eat butter all the time

[@grumpibell]

Any day we get a home blog is a good day… This one was particularly adorable… Tim saying that making a smoothie together is the best part of the day… Oh my gosh it brought a tear to my eye it with it’s just pure love. Thank you so much for sharing your family

[@CamillaDenmark]

‘8 year experience’ nanny here 🙋🏼‍♀️ The absolute best thing you can do for yourself (it keeps you sane is insane moments, because toddlers and preschoolers can be a bit crazy), is to ALWAYS give your kids 2-3 options. If they don’t choose the option then you tell them that you’ll make the decision then, and then they’ll pick an option. This works until they’re approximately 7-8 years old, but then at that age they should be more independent and make good choices on their own. 😊

[@mire.r8726]

Yes!! I was a preK teacher and agree 100%

[@amandap8936]

100 % agreed with that with my first kid. The second...not so much. Starting around 3 years old (about 3 🙃) she refused to choose from a set of options, and would fairly quickly choose from her whole selection of shirts, etc. instead. Just goes to show that I always have new things to learn and experience as a parent lol

[@CamillaDenmark]

@@amandap8936 it’s probably easier for a teacher or nanny to set boundaries, but I don’t know, I’ve only observed parents, and they don’t seem to be able to keep the boundaries, I don’t have any kids of my own, after 8 years with kids from 0-10 years old I’m tired 😵‍💫. But in the scenario that the kid doesn’t want to choose then you set you foot down and make the decision. There’s of course instances that kids should just make their own decisions, like the clothes one you mention, then they can choose what ever they want because it won’t be a safety issue as long as they wear clothes that is appropriate for the weather. 😊

[@Soulmusictiger]

Jen (for the second time): “you can’t put the Mickey straws in the dishwasher” Jackson: “WhAt dID yOu SAy!?” 🤣

[@Soup2nutts]

Most dad moment ever when Tim eats the broccoli from Jacksons chair!

[@robinduke3184]

Add “You can’t just eat butter,” to the list of things we never realized we would say before we were a Mom. 🤣🤣🤣 Love it.

[@c0ronariu5]

Millennial trigger for: “is butter a carb?”

[@xcutenametagx7912]

Jackson sampling all the fruit, just to make sure it's safe for daddy to eat! I'm not a fan of kids, but this one has stolen my heart! ❤

[@funnymanatee]

I love sitting under a covered porch and watching the rain with a friend while sitting in a comfortable chair.

[@terrificthemeparkshopper6338]

My little guy used to wear the Disney PJ sets…so adorable and brought back some wonderful memories (he’s 24 now)!!

[@nancyegan841]

I love your home vlogs and seeing how Jackson is growing so fast! You should put up your own captions of what Jackson is saying. I'm truly interested but the CC can't understand him either, haha. He is so cute!

[@pixiedustmama1983]

I love home vlogs, it’s like a warm hug on a busy day.

[@Slygathor]

Jackson making sure all the fruit was good enough to go in his smoothie was adorable. Love the home vlogs!

[@heydianawillett]

One of my favorite things about going to Publix as a kid was getting a free cookie from the bakery! At one of the entrances that has the thing with all the coupons and flyers some still have Publix specific coloring pages and crayons on the bottom of those, use to love that as a kid too, normally the entrance side that has the scale.

[@darkblade1707]

Fun fact: I actually do work at the bakery in my Publix Location! Seeing kids asking for cookies always puts a smile on my face!

[@s.a.m.c.]

Two highlights for me: “You can’t just eat butter” “You took a real bite?! 🍪” both had me dying laughing out loud

[@lukebmitchel]

Did Jackson say ‘daddy why the hell you following with me?’ at the end of the video? 😂

[@nickellfrancis6846]

that was so cute the way jackson say his sweet little words I enjoy watching your home blog Tim and jenn thank you 🙏💕💕😀😉

[@emmicruz]

Jackson and Tim’s relationship is so pure.. warms my heart♥️♥️

[@AnnalieseMayer]

Such a good video! I think ever since Jackson was born the home vlogs have been just as fun if not more fun for me than the theme park videos. I obviously love Disney, but it doesn't seem like Jen and Jackson are able to go with Tim a lot of times when he goes to the parks and I really enjoy seeing the whole family. If you see this thank you for the daily entertainment. Until tomorrow!

[@jessicacross4673]

Jackson is the cutest! I love to see the home vlogs for the updates about him and the yummy food Jenn makes!

[@silverfairy614]

Oh! Using the "hot tub" as a Jackson-sized pool is a great idea!

[@Lynnmarie9395]

Awesome to give kiddos acceptable choices! It gives them the feeling of having some control and also helps their independence 👍

[@riversongsmelody]

When I was a kid they gave free cookies at my grocery store…Publix might be the only grocery chain that still does that.

[@stacyneuman8619]

They also do that at Smith’s here in NewMexico

[@tricialevi9817]

Harris Teeter in NC has done it too!

[@nancyegan841]

Safeway does too

[@missyadrian4558]

I wish I could remember which store it was here in Cincinnati, but I do recall a fruit bin for kids to choose a banana or a cutie mandarin for free.

[@verawilliams1208]

oh my god, i totally miss when my local Stop"n"shop used to do that and i would go there with my grandmother and would ask for one every time.

[@hilarywallace9927]

Love a home vlogg - Tim and Jackson doing breakfast routine is so darn cute ! Your dinner looked so tasty Jenn 💕

[@ChinaDollTravels]

:40 Jackson helping out in the kitchen and eating strawberry 🍓 cute 🥰

[@maggieherrera2925]

Tim and Jackson drinking the smoothie together with their Mickey straws, soooo cute!!!!

[@jackluver19]

On rainy days up here in Chicago if I'm not working, I like to spend the day in bed reading comics, watching tv or just resting. It's nice to have a relaxing day once in awhile.

[@Mon_Zak]

I absolutely love your home vlogs. Jackson is sure growing up quickly.

[@frankfam0625]

I love home vlogs! Jackson is so inquisitive and it is so much fun to listen to him talk and process things. Thanks for sharing your family with us!

[@jimbutler4935]

Tim the way you are with Jackson in the morning is priceless never lose that father son relationship

[@KathyHollister]

One of the Rainy Day Fun things we do is, each of the kiddo's have a metal tin they have picked , (can be a decorated box or bag too). We call them our Grateful Tins. I have a box of old magazines and toddler scissors and they cut out things they like or love and put them in their container. When they are all done. They show me all the things they found that they are thankful and grateful for. It ranges from Food, Flowers, pic's of families having fun. etc... It makes them so happy to see how many wonderful things there are to be thankful for.

[@jama17gill]

That's really nice that your grocery store does that with the freebies for kids!!! That is not common. And, wow, pretty soon Jackson will not want naps at all. To be expected at his age. At that point, mine went into pre-school and loved it!!! A great way to make friends, etc!!!

[@headfangs]

you know what else is good mixed with those dry oat packets is yogurt! I used to eat it all the time for an easy breakfast. I didn't microwave it obviously, just ate it nice and cold.

[@MsHolli09]

Jackson’s talking is so clear. He’s so big I could cry 😭

[@alisongriffiths5836]

Needed this home vlog on a Monday☺️ Jackson was adorable helping make the smoothie. You did a lot in this home vlog. The new pans look amazing. Hope you’re having a great Monday 😊

[@courtneyc314]

Jackson is too much. His personality is huge and he has such a great sense of humor. You are doing an amazing job raising him!

[@jeaninemunoz1817]

What a nice treat! So much is changing with Jackson, he is so clear and fun!! Enjoy it all 😊, they grow so fast!!!

[@lorettawhite5437]

Tim I’m retired from Publix and for years Publix has always given children free cookies and a ballon and also a basket in produce for children too pick from sometimes the deli has a ziploc bag of popcorn for the kids too 😊. Remember where shopping is a pleasure !! God Bless 🙏

[@mmmhmm5912]

Absolutely relaxing! Thank you so much. Ive been watching you guys for quite some time and i love all videos but what's most relaxing, calming and just plain great is a nice home vlog. That's all it takes to intrigue my enjoyment. You guys are the utmost real, sincere, outgoing, playful and fun people I know. All the activities and places i wish i could go. You experience for me. The fun you have with your family. The not only learning aspect of it for you guys and Jackson but to learn and be able to experience all these great things is incredible. I wish i could be so blessed to see it all like you do but i see it through your eyes. The best ever so thank you. Appreciation for all of you. Tim, Jenn, Jackson and Lynn..Thank you.

[@andreaf7458]

OMG the beginning sequence of you making the smoothie with Jackson is just so precious. You can tell this is the morning routine. He's so ready to push down the magic bullet. And I love how he samples everything. 😆

[@nancyvozella3841]

Jackson is one smart dude!!!❤️

[@tjohnson-wooten8987]

I enjoy your relaxing home vlog videos. I saw that Bluey has a live stage show and I immediately thought of Jackson!

[@JackiieDelight]

I swear Jackson speaks more and more every vlog and I LOVE IT. His little personality is so cute ✨

[@rosieroots2540]

On rainy days I always deep clean my room while watching yalls vlogs. Sometimes I'll watch movies.

[@CoopersCorner201]

Every mom EVER.... "You can't just eat butter." 🤣 I was just thinking about Jackson asking "Where'd that come from?" and it reminded me when my daughter used to ask all the time "Who got this for me?" She would love remembering where her favorite things came from! As she got a little older she would say "remember Aunt Lori got me this?" I think it's so adorable! Love home vlogs! Happy 2.5 Jackson!🥰

[@superhero891]

When Jackson is older he would love Cedar Point and Kings Island. Lots of coasters.

[@dansuehath]

We live in Oregon! HA! And on the Coast! So it rains ALL the time. So we just do whatever we want, rain or shine. ;)

[@SoCalPat]

I love Tim's, "sharing is caring" and takes a bite of the cookie. My local Albertson's will give me free stuff when I'm on the fence of buying bakery items. Not much rain here in SoCal, but I did manage a same day trip to Disneyland yesterday and enjoyed watching the crowds trying to do everything in a day

[@MicheleKlinger]

We really got to see Jackson’s personality shine in this home vlog. He’s just so adorable!!!

[@erikagholston6610]

I like how Jackson is your taste tester in the morning.

[@margaretmacgillicuddy4944]

Oh my, Jenn how do you resist Jackson’s beautiful blue eyes, when he misbehaves. He is just too cute.

[@SimplySarah222]

I think Jackson’s half birthday is May 29th :) so he’s not quite 2 and a half yet

[@witabif]

glad I'm not the only one who thought of this lol 😅 my birthday is in may and my half birthday is in november so I was a little confused.

[@SimplySarah222]

@@witabif haha! my birthday is november 27th so i know mine is may 27th. so i was like wait huh?

[@jcockrell83]

Yes, November babies (like me!) have 1/2 birthdays in May! I guess they'll have to celebrate again at the end of the month 😁

[@SimplySarah222]

@@jcockrell83 haha yess😊

[@beckyhmltn]

I so agree. Jackson is 2 yrs and 5 months. Lol, haha

[@Dizfan]

Love Home Vlogs! Free cookies were & are still a thing today...not just at Publix...but at WalMart too,etc. I like how Jackson is Expanding his Vocabulary a little bit. Love the Relationship he has with Tim when they have a conversation & fixing Breakfast or a snack. He's Definitely a little Chef for sure! You guys should start keeping track at how many Rollercoasters Jackson has ridden..I can't believe he's rode 5 already. Definitely want to see him do 7 Dwarfs.

[@kayliiika]

I thought Jackson is 2.5 at the end of May ? If he was born in November? Still such an exciting milestone either way!

[@debbiep664]

I came here looking for this comment! Definitely May.

[@Cutiepenguin42]

When I was a kid, my favorite rainy day activities were to draw (giant poster rolls of paper for murals were fun!), do crafts, build forts, bake cookies, and go outside in rain gear and enjoy the rain and puddles!

[@chelseytritt3311]

Yall should take Jackson to ride flight of the Hippogriff! I believe it's 36" and up! My daughter loved it at 2!

[@nicolemc2263]

I LOVE how Jackson samples the fruit and then puts it in the smoothie maker with a mini bite taken out of it!!! The cutest - my heart!!! 🥰🥰🥰

[@keishlaspivey6157]

Greatly enjoyed the Home vlog. My rainy day activity: Watching A good Mystery Movie and or binge watching a good series. Snacking, sleeping. The beige color pots are very pretty It's awesome seeing how Jackson is developing so well. Yay 🌺🧡 Thank you for sharing GOD BLESS

[@bridgetphillips2969]

Yay! Just going to bed but can't wait for a home vlog when I get up!

[@mimicallsit7675]

The thing you’re talking about in the beginning is called, “the illusion of choice.” We learn it in education to encourage kids to choose between options and exercise autonomy. Super helpful for the exact reason you shared.

[@Kay-hh3vy]

For me the best rainy day activity is baking and binging a new show or Disney videos! Glad you guys got to enjoy a fun day at home!

[@natty4231]

I love that you guys are giving him options!! In therapy ( ABA) we call that paired choice. Give two options that are perfectly viable so child feels like they still have a say in their day and choices.

[@jamieadisneyfan8317]

Seams like only yesterday my baby was 2.5. End of this month he will be 32!! I don't know where the time has gone!! Our first trip to Disney he was 5 years old and his brother was 8. Jenn, I miss those days. Enjoy every moment while you can.

[@kai_ymgc]

Jackson really is getting smarter and smarter!! And he’s talkative with full sentences now wow XD His little personality is sooo cute and that’s on how Tim and Jenn raise him😊 I can’t wait to be such a good parents like you two🥰❤️

[@summerlarson2543]

We hardly ever get rain where we live, and love the rain in FL. We find every reason to be out in it. Last time we went to the beach and enjoyed the storm at the restaurant at the end of the pier. The rain and lightning was increadible. 😊

[@lisaculleton8660]

Hello from England 🇬🇧 I LOVE your HOME VLOGS! You have amazing play parks over there! Won’t Jackson be 2 ½ on the 29th May…🤔🤔 or have I got his birthday wrong? (29th Nov?) x

[@HeidiSKulesh]

ROTFL at Jackson biting, and licking, each strawberry, before he puts it in! Awww - I love that Jackson is sharing with both of you (even though Jenn didn't bite it - LOL). Socially distanced hugs to the 3 of you from New Jersey. Stay strong, stay positive, stay healthy!

[@KevinGerhardt]

I could not really tell during the *time lapse* of Tim and Jackson in the swimming pool, I was wondering if Jackson (floatie assisted) was swimming? If so, that's so cool BC if I remember I was swimming at an early age as well. BTW Jackson is getting so audible and conversational now, he has sue grown in the last 2 1/2 years. 😎

[@amy_soucy]

Here we have "Dave's Marketplace". The company started out as a fruit stand at the end of the road where my mom grew up. They now have lots of full sized grocery stores throughout the state. They have a complimentary coffee and tea bar that may feature baked goods from the bakery as well. 😊

[@karleeayala5487]

I like to bake when it is a rainy day. It would be fun to make chocolate chip cookies, either store bought dough or homemade with Jackson.

[@jwild4501]

Jenn your edits are awesome I so enjoyed the festival of fantasy editing that you did! You’re so talented

[@sandrad2261]

Rainy days are for reading and sleeping. Glad it didn't rain so you could get in the pool and play at the playground. Love how well Jackson will eat his food, but I'm sure he doesn't always eat that well.

[@butterflyaway1_gurl352]

A growing strong little boy thank you both for sharing your adventures with us 🤭🤗💓

[@lisa4bells]

Yep. We have Price Chopper and Hyvee and both of them give kids cookies. Walmart sometimes does too.

[@melanieknight4503]

Such a cute home vlog, Jackson is growing so fast, the same as my grandson ❤️, loved the breakfast routine also that dinner looked so good Hen ❤️

[@lovestodive1879]

Hooooooome Vloooooog! That playground looked so cool. I'm looking up those pans right now.

[@superbadgeethan8335]

I'm 45 and I still remember loving the grocery store as a toddler bc they'd give us a free cookie. It wasn't something they had a sign for or promoted, but the good grocery stores have done it for ages. Either your parents didn't tell you, they didn't buy a lot of bakery items, or they didn't strike up convos w the staff.

[@marklee_702]

Jackson is the official food taste tester 😊

[@kaylajane6554]

On rainy school days my mom would make popcorn and hot chocolate for when we got home! I’m from CA and it doesn’t rain much so it was always sort of a special occasion lol

[@brittanyreed3811]

I think Jackson's butter to toast ratio is spot on!

[@joshnelson2476]

That use to be the thing my sister and I would do. We would go up to the bakery of the grocery store and ask for a cookie. Almost always the worker would hand us a cookie.

[@leighannlambert6930]

The best days are family days - loved it when our son was little and it was just the three of us.

[@Mrswoo42]

My son is a month older than Jackson and we totally use the options to help him along! “ do you want mommy to carry you to the bathroom to brush your teeth or do you wanna walk?” Etc it’s the best

[@lewisevans3364]

Surprisingly this home vlog taught me how to roll a burrito! Thanks guys

[@Mossfaerie]

OH MY GOD. I haven't been back to the channel in a while and JACKSON IS SO BIG NOW. MY MIND IS BLOWN.

[@jrknight3776]

Wow Jackson’s speech is amazing. And he’s so funny and smart. You’re a lovely super duper family. Thanks for letting us be part of it. Love you guys 🙏🏻🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@beckers68]

If Jackson is craving butter, it may be his body's way of telling him he needs more healthy fats. Giving him extra avocado, chia and flaxseed will help the craving calm down. You can add chia or flax to his oatmeal plus a little pat of butter in his morning oatmeal and that will help him get more really fast. If he doesn't like avocado, try putting it in a fruit and chocolate smoothie that he enjoys with daddy. My kids down theirs and have no idea it is in it! Oh and yes, it is normal for most bigger grocery store bakeries to give a free cookie to kids.

[@susanorr8348]

Jackson is the sweetest and so smart !

[@jasminerose231]

When Jackson is sampling very thing in your smoothie in our family we call that making sure it not poisonous lol

[@Laurenboynton]

Omg that is the coolest playground ever! Wish we had one like that!

I love how Tim and Jackson have such deep conversations

[@debbiewestphal4291]

Publix has been giving out cookies since my kids were little Many decades ago Brilliant giving him choices 👍🤗

[@JAMProductionsInc.]

As a produce clerk at Publix. I can 100% confirm that kids can get a free cookie in the Bakery! Also,,not sure all Publix's, but at the one I work at,,we have a section with bananas, mandarins, or sometimes apples and kids can have a free one of those as well!

[@JAMProductionsInc.]

Prior to my comment I was at the part where you were questioning if it's a common thing to give free cookies at grocery stores....I paused it right before you yourself mentioned about the free produce. Lol Whoops. Lol

[@christiewells6263]

Raining days are spent watching old movies and or SLEEPING 😴

[@wilmaluth6256]

Yes. Our children are 40 and 38. We shopped at Publix when we lived in Jacksonville FL. Grocery stores gave cookies when they were small also.

[@ducky366]

Things only moms have to say…”you can’t eat only butter!” 😂🤣

[@MyBackyardScience]

Good morning Tim, Jen, and Jackson 🙂

[@oldmomj5088]

Choices are great. Helpful hint.. make sure that you keep his answer to the choices you gave them. So, "You want toast. We can do that. Do you want toast for your PB sandwich or your turkey sandwich." Thank you for your videos. Love the home blogs

[@anne-marie1037]

I am a cookie baker and sometimes my 3D cookie cutters get warped like Jackson’s straws. You can put the cutters in a bowl of hot water for a couple of mins and they get soft and easily are reshaped. Maybe try that with his straws. :)
