I don't have kids of my own but I got a warm feeling in my heart watching how happy Olivia, Cody, and Boston we're opening their gifts. I'm so blessed to be able to watch your videos ☺️
@MMDemp9 жыл бұрын
Such wonderful gifts for your children, Bonnie. So thoughtful to give little Boston a toy pocketknife. I also admire you guys for the patient and careful way you are teaching Cody about safety with the grown up version. Looks like Cody is developing maturity about many things and he will be fixing things around the house before he even gets to his teens. Olivia's response to her kitchen set is absolutely priceless. I am sure you and Joel will enjoy this vlog for years to come. May you all have a relaxing, healthy and peaceful holiday.

Awe how precious / Olivia and her kitchen and reacting to her American girl doll. I can't wait to get my daughter an American girl doll. She's 1.5 years old right now.. So I have a little bit of time. We have an American girl doll shop about 15 mins from our home. It will be so exciting. I guess you can have a tea party in the actual store. That will be such a special mommy daughter trip. My 3 year old son is obsessed with Toy Story. We got him a buzz lightyear 12inch toy. Found it on Amazon for 22$ instead of 70$ from toys r us. I was proud!!! Bonnie your kids are so sweet. Thank you for sharing your Christmas with us. I feel like I was part of the moment. Your my favorite youtuber. I'm 32 with 2 kids and have been with my hubby for 10 years. Married for almost 5 years. My 3 year old LOVES watching your kids. He asked if he could play with them. Bless his little heart.

Cody loves his gadgets, nothing wrong with that. If Santa didn't feel it wasn't safe, would he bring it? No! He's going to be a professional at building and renovating just like Dad when he's older. So so precious. Thanks for sharing your Christmas with us!

I just think you two are a the cutest couple and have the cutest kido's. From Julia in Ohio. We had no SNOW this Christmas. Ugh. and it has been our Warmest Dec. Yet. Yuck !!! My kids are 27 and 23 no grand baby's yet. The 27 yr old just got engaged. I miss them being little. Sometimes I feel so alone but watch your family makes me feel better. To laugh and cry alone side you. Your loved from Ohio.
