"I'm embracing my new body, it gave me my baby!" Love! You're absolutely beautiful! ❤

I know. That almost made me cry!

What do you think about asking your contractor to be on your podcast if he had the time? Id be really cool and informative to have someone that does that kind of work to be on there. Congrats on your beautiful baby! Can't believe he's 2 months old already.

I’m a content and product photographer and I feel the same! I was shooting weddings when I started following Macenna and over the years my work shifted industries.

I just hired a new gardener and at the end of his second visit when I went to pay him, on a very hot day, working without his assistant, I brought him a large cup of freshly cut up cold watermelon with a fork and a napkin, along with the money. He was soooo grateful! I think he liked the fresh cold fruit more than the money! Probably not really, but his face was so happy!

So happy to hear what you said about your post baby body. It's so refreshing to hear a young woman not obsessing about looks and goals and what ifs. You're gorgeous inside and out!

From a parental POV, how amazing is it that Cade and future mini MaCenna/Romeo kidlets have this whole entire channel to watch of their parents and their younger years?

Could always ask your GC for advice, he’s such a nice guy and he’s done arches before (Drew’s) so he’d be a good resource. Little man is getting so big, he’s so precious.

[@jmk1962]

I'm sure she has done already as she had such a good relationship with them and they respected her so much too. Good tradesmen like to share their knowledge with others.

[@lvdywolf]

We recently had our driveway redone and a large concrete pad poured. We hired a fantastic crew, always had a breakfast/coffee bar set up for them with muffins and pastries, water, OJ, coffee. Treated them to pizza one day for lunch. Always had cold water and gatorade on hand. They said the same thing you mentioned, that most people just ignore them as if they’re not there. It made me cry once I got in after saying bye. I just don’t get how people can be so cold.

[@laurase2760]

Hi dear, just in case you didn’t know: have you checked whether you have to put the handle bar on Cade‘s car seat down during car rides? For most car seats it’s not „only“ a handle for carrying but functions as a safety feature so the baby won’t hit the seat in case of an accident as the handle bar will hit the seat instead (hope you know what I mean) 🙏🏼 Super happy for you that you FINALLY get to enjoy your kitchen and decorate 😍😍😍 second time for me to binge on your kitchen videos while pregnant 😄❤️

[@melissawiese5419]

I love how respectful you are in showing baby❤ it’s just the perfect amount of us feeling your journey and being mindful of him. Thanks for being you💕

[@adrianadura8738]

Hey Macenna! Silent watcher here! Your videos became my metime when I became a mom 1,5 years ago! I love everything you do! it made me realise how my style is so similar to yours. I’m also an art kid that wanted to become interior designer but life had other plans for me haha😆 not mad about it but interior design is still close to heart. You are such an inspiration!! Just also wanted to say after I gave birth I also had sty infections so you should not feel insecure about it. Our bodies go through a lot and added to all that breastfeeding and sleep deprivation, our immunity is fighting a lot to keep us healthy and infection free so this is super common. Lots of love from Romania!

[@IMOO1896]

Ohmygoodness, Little Man is getting so big! Many years ago, many, if there were workers at my home, they got a home cooked meal, by my Mother, and they sat at the dining table with the family. That’s the way it was done. I’m not a cook, but I do buy meals for workers. It’s the least I can do to show my appreciation, besides paying what they ask!

[@She.Follows.The.Sun.]

You remind me of my grandmother in-law. The way she talks too 😂 lol

[@rneustel388]

That’s the way it was done when my maternal grandfather worked, too, as a master carpenter in Arkansas, even during the depression. He was born in 1898.

[@chadseaman8365]

Hello! Try brewing a cup of tea (black or green) and apply the warm teabag to your eye for 15 minutes or so. Works every time to get rid of a stye!

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

If nothing else, it feels nice and soothing.

[@carrieaasland2862]

Just keep applying warm to hot compresses and it'll be fine. Make-up a no no!

[@LindaKayHolevas]

I used to get styes all of the time & wish I knew this trick. I just remember my mom making me put HOT washrags on my eye & it was so painful!

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

@@LindaKayHolevas Oh, ouch! I'm so sorry! That must have been so painful! I remember one of mine bursting and screaming and screaming because I couldn't see anything as all that gunk filled my eye. I was 9 or 10 and thought I'd gone blind in that eye and I was so scared! My dad calmed me down and irrigated my eye with distilled water to rinse all the blood and infection out while my mom called the doctor for a prescription for antibiotic eye drops and ran to the drugstore to pick it up. II was the first time I'd had one burst - usually they just finally shrank and disappeared.

I don't think the tape will hold it, eventually it will crack again with the seasons. You either need paper faced corner bead (has metal in it) or J molding, also known as J-bead or J-trim, is a type of drywall finishing bead.

[@ca.1112]

It also cracked some because it hadn't been painted yet. That will help as well.

[@blovejoy7]

Mom of 5 here. I posted on one other video related to having kids, but I love all your videos. I also got styes and something similar but more in the upper eye lid called a chalazion postpartum. Maybe hormone and sleep change related. Chalazions are clogged oil ducts and sometimes have to be drained by an eye doctor, which I had to have done after two different births. I really do think lack of or interrupted sleep had a lot to do with it. Doctor’s couldn’t really make sense of why it was primarily only happening post partum, but I had it with every child and now 5 years since my last birth, I never have those eye issues anymore. Hope your’s is able to heal on its own!

YES THE ARCHES!!! it bothered me a little and i knew you'd get to it and it's finally here

[@sarah.fb.lindsay]

Girl SAME! I get it, life happens, BUT it always bugged me that it was unfinished.

[@Shahinaz14]

Same Every time she titled the vlog tackling unfinished project, I wish it's the arches 😅😅😅

[@chantz_a_loo]

I made my contractors coffee every morning. Warmed up their packed leftovers lunches in the microwave for them. Also lived on site through our kitchen reno (last year) and was project manager and did all the wall painting myself. Contractors played with our dog and she was so excited to have visitors every day. Electrician is a friend of ours and 1 contractor a relative so we often had lunches with them, and then our dog would actually watch the gate watching for the 2 of them especially. Our main builder was a work contact of hubby’s and his team was so cheerful. All great guys. We had a very happy site.

[@literari_ly]

In my experience, those little moments of kindness you extend to those helping you usually come back around to you through their work. As simple as them choosing to go the extra mile and making sure every tiny detail matters.

[@veritorossi]

I know that probably you are not going to see this comment but have in mind that when you have a sty in your eyes it's a bacterial infection so any make up, mascara, etc you used on your eye is contaminated and you have to toss. It's better not to use make up until your eye is healed. The same with contacts. If you use them you have to toss those.

[@phylliscalkins1607]

Girl, you do you and get your things done or not done as it works best for you. You and your new little family come first and your passion for home improvement will always shine through when it's time.

[@anticapitalisthomedesign]

I don't get the vibe that you're, like, massively rich (although compared to my 10k annual income, you are lol), but you're definitely one of those people who knows how to have money. Like, buying the workers lunches & paying so much attention to detail & trying to preserve what you can & make things that are high quality & objectively beautiful. Been following for a while, and I'm just continually impressed. Glad to have you as an inspiration ✨

[@meghannlopez3687]

My dad was a custom home builder and remodeled many homes (he’s now retired). He had clients who were amazing and those who were not. Now as an adult I’ve also always taken care of whomever has worked on my home. What I found is if you take care of them, they often take care of you better than the job may require. It’s the golden rule played out in real life. Being kind to tradesmen/women is so important. They often are masters at their craft, and we need them! Love love love all the progress ❤

[@user-om2ye7uh5n]

Best thing for a stye is hot compresses the moment you feel it! Do the compresses multiple times a day and it will come to a head sooner and usually resolves by the next day. It works every single time for me. I learned that from an RN that was my neighbor decades ago!

[@foxymama9203]

Hearing those amazing tradesmen say that some clients don’t even say hi must have broke your heart, it broke mine 😢 I can’t imagine NOT saying hi and picking up lunches and chatting with them about their lives and watching them create such beauty and appreciating it and giving them the respect they truly deserve!! My problem would be shutting my chatterbox and letting them get on with their work so they aren’t at my house 10 months instead of 5 months 😂 These guys were among the first people who were around Cade and I am sure that was very special to them also! They also got the chance to have a true collaboration with someone who has done a lot of what they do and who understands the process, so that was fun for them too! They will always be a part of your home!! I remember when my parents built our first home, we had all the tradesmen sign their names and the date next to my brother and my signatures (along with our parents) in each of our bedrooms and that was such a special moment!! I was 12 and my brother was 10. That was 48 years ago and I often wonder if any of the owners after us remodeled and found them!

[@schwal11]

Girl I noticed you got an eye stye, I used to get them all the time throughout highschool and I even had them surgically removed (painful) but here is what I wish I known sooner to get rid of them. Not just hot compresses but cilantro compresses, boil 2 cups of water let it boil for 3-4 min turn it off and throw in a handful of cleaned washed cilantro cover it w a lid. Remove the cilantro once it’s warm not hot anymore and w a face towel soak it and put it over you eye. Make sure you set aside water and not keep dipping back, you can save your water warm it up a you need it. It’s so good!!!

Your baby is absolutely ADORABLE! It is so hard to believe he is already 2 months old because it seems like it was just yesterday that he was born. McCenna, you really look amazing and I was thrilled to hear you say you were embracing your post baby body because it gave you Cade. I wish many more women saw themselves in the same manner after having their baby/babies instead of dwelling on the fact they no longer look exactly like they did before their baby was born. I can only imagine how thrilled you are to finally be able to start putting your house back together and knowing you're only a few days away from actually having a kitchen again. I'm also a person who does not function well at all when things are in turmoil around me. Isn't it sad though that so many people are so rude to contractors they hired to do work around and/or in their house. I simply do not understand what is so difficult in being kind to others, yet many people tend to look down on them which has always bothered me a lot. And for your contractors to have actually commented on your kindness, and thanked you, speaks volumes to seldom this occurs. Your house is truly turning out beautifully, inside and out. Your flowers are magnificent and always make me smile whenever they're shown. Here in West Texas beautiful blooming flowers are not a common sight.

[@elisahamilton73]

I've always taught my kids to be grateful and thankful to people no matter what they do as a job. She is studying for her degree and where she is living they have a cleaner to hoover, clean the showers and toilets and empty the bins. My daughter always talks to her and the lady said it was so unusual for that to happen as most people do even acknowledge her.

It might not be your vibe but it might be helpful for someone to see this… using shutters inside can be an easy and interesting way to cover a frequently opened wall. For exsample if you have plumbing issues and have to open a wall to access the pipes, then the shutters can allow you access with out having to re-drywall every time. In my childhood home we had access to our bathtub due to a pipe that would leak (no matter how many times it was fixed or replaced) and the wall to open was in the stairwell by the back door. Dad put up shutters and decorated the stairwell as a cottage. It made it seem intentional and gave easy access anytime there was an issue with the tub. 😊

So old wives trick to help heal a stye faster - if you wear a gold band ring - take the band of the ring and rub it over the stye - something to do with your bodies chemistry and chemical reaction with the gold that helps heal a stye.

The stye is just oxalates the same as in kidney stones Milk and dairy calcium helps to absorb oxalates Also all kidney stones cure herb teas are good And just heat like warm water in the shower helps

[@hiwelcometochillis2579]

Check high oxalates foods in your diet to identify what is causing them In general is based seed milks and Swiss chard

25:23 Literally so random, but noticed the baby mirror and had to comment. The best thing we ever discovered when we had our little one was BABY CAR CAMERAS. Those mirrors are terrible! They shake, they slide, I felt like I couldnt see clearly enough to relax and feel like my LO was safe. Baby cameras provided a way clearer image of what was going on back there and I didn’t have to stare into my rear view for ages to get peace of mind. Highly recommend!

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I’m so excited for you and Romeo to have your kitchen completed. I absolutely love it! You have done such an amazing and beautiful job in the design. I love having table in your kitchen. The way you’ve styled it is perfect. The handles and knobs are so perfect and beautiful. The chandelier is stunning. The cafe curtains are lovely. The entry door that you added the curved frame is so nice. You did an excellent job on it. Now enjoy. What will be your formal that you’re going to prepare in your new and oh so beautiful kitchen? I was thinking Italian. Love it all. ☺️❤️

I would have wimped out and had the contractors finish the arches, and not told anyone, you’re so good. ❤

The kitchen is stunning. Can you do a video on how you re managing to get work done with a 2 month old!? I freebirthed my baby boy just over a month ago, he only sleeps attached to someone, or in motion. It's almost impossible to get anything done!

The fact that you have a genuine kindness in your being is why I'm still subscribed to both channels. I came for the diys but my five year old daughter and I stay for the kindness and heart that comes through in every video. Charlie (my daughter) loves your videos and asks for you by name. She also loves Kinsley and always asks what Romeo is up to. She predicted you were going to be a mommy two weeks before you announced it. Thank you for sharing your projects and so much of your life even when you don't have to.

Alway the best day when you upload I immediately stop what I’m doing to watch

I bet Romeo is so happy, I am too. Good job sweet Macenna

[@bcarolynn]

Oh, Macenna. I saw your stye when it first started and I didn't know you had never had one before. My daughter gets them, too. As soon as we notice one coming on we get a washcloth with hot water(as hot as you can stand) and she leaves it sit one her eye for 5 to 10 minutes at a time a few times a day. As one side cools, turn the wash cloth to the inside for a fresh hot spot. It doesn't always get rid of them completely, but it makes them stay smaller, and they go away faster.

Exciting! So, so happy for you…definitely worth the wait. Like you, it’s beyond me when some folks forgo kindness. Leave people better than how you meet them and send them off smiling. Contractor and tradesmen must be feeling well appreciated. Cade is gorgeous. My baby is 32 yrs and even when he visits and sleepover, I enjoy watching him sleep. I often thank God for the experience of being his mother. I see you so in love with Cade. May God continue to bless you all and Cades every milestone. Thank so much for sharing.

In Australia the corner joints of gyprock walls have 90 degree aluminium cornerbead you tack in place. You joint fill over the top of the cornerbead.

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

And they make special ones for curved areas like arches.

On the wall you're planning a trellis.. why not make a faux window shutter feature with flower box cills?. ❤

[@marthazan9732]

That beautiful bleu :) oven hood over your shoulder!!! You're a natural wonder.

Mommy and Daddy are working well switching time management. Congrats. He is a doll@

The little sneak peak of the kitchen when you were talking about the arches.... oh my gosh... the kitchen is absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!!

[@MultiDonna26]

Oh so lovely to see Baby Cade and your kitchen finally finished. We've just spent four months in a hotel due to a kitchen and bathroom/laundry and floor renovation. Finally we are back home but the organising and unpacking is taking forever. :)

[@preesh]

Eeee! I’m sure you have an idea of how many of your viewers are rooting for you, but just here to say it’s been so fun watching your life and skills evolve over the last FOUR YEARS!! 🥳💀 Congrats on all your success, looking forward to seeing what’s coming next! ♥️

Being kind- the world needs a lot more kindness

[@grisespino5342]
