Going Home for the Holidays

This was our journey home for the holidays for our son's very first Christmas. We haven't seen lines this long at the airport until now, the holiday rush is a very real thing.

The best thing my dad did once I got married and had a baby was to never ever make us feel guilty about spending time away from him. He always said we should worry about ourselves first and not worry about sharing time. That automatically made us want to spend MORE time with him and maybe less with those that made us feel bad!

I love how Matt leaves Griffin on the floor outside the bathroom and proceeds to call him "bro". Matt is doing great 😂

[@MattandAbby]

He’s a chill baby 😎

[@emilieesimmons6105]

Can we appreciate Matt for being an amazing father, and a respectful , attentive husband at the same time?!? 🎉💯

[@kristennelson2480]

The only reason it deserves praise is because it’s unfortunately rare

[@przemyslawkoziel7767]

We already do appreciate him though...

[@cheekymonkey5150]

@@kristennelson2480 In the video we mostly see Matt with Griffin so.. And usually father's are better with older kids and also usually father's work "normal" jobs when they're not a youtuber :)

Super useful parenting tip I was once given…If the baby is being exclusively breastfed (no formula, baby food, or “real” food) then the sun can remove poop stains! Every time my babies had a blow out during the first six months of their life, I’d just hang their clothes out in direct sunlight. Always worked!

[@MattandAbby]

Wait what? I’ve never heard this before! Totally going to start using your trick haha

[@saraharmstrong6134]

Works like a charm!! 😁

[@eb6177]

Also, regular blue dawn dishsoap, scrub it then throw it in the wash

[@OfficialL0L]

@@MattandAbby hello matt and abby! i had a comment about 2 questions! but then i saw that same telemarket official matt and abby account just letting you know! ❤

[@brittanylockwood6085]

Works with formula fed babes too! At least with mine.

[@Daymickey]

Love Matt’s parents so much! There’s something about their presence that’s heartwarming.

[@Kk-us9qi]

I was married young and did Christmas with everyone for years. Especially now that you have a baby keep the holidays to your family. It’s so much less stress and you can enjoy your little family more. After 16 years I’m finally doing that and I don’t actually dread Christmas this year for the first time ever.

[@MattandAbby]

It’s definitely important to know it’s okay to say “no”

[@brob79429]

Matt has the sweetest parents they drove all the way to the airport to pick them up how nice most parents wouldn't.

[@theatrefanatic6752]

Griffen looks so much like both of them, but especially Abby! It's so crazy!

Griffin is so cute and is so adorable watching his parents run around getting ready for the trip. 😊

I hope people see your channel & hold on to their first loves like you did. Nothing else could ever compare. Ride the ups & downs but always ride it out. Have 50th anniversaries, grandchildren, extended family. Stay together no matter what.

[@MrPstevens70]

That’s very sweet and might work out for some. But people can change so much from teens to adults, first love isn’t always meant to be. And that’s ok too.

[@user-wg2kg4qk3b]

Your son is the cutest! His little giggle is so adorable! I can’t believe that your husband can be so respectful to you and to his son, and your son looks like you Abby! Matt is such a great man to you!

[@avarichard1343]

I love Matt and Abby. I fell like you are people who are not afraid to show the real struggles of being parents.

[@ls8609]

Abby you look amazing for giving birth only 5 months ago! I love y’all so much and y’all make my days so much better when I watch y’all! Y’all are amazing parents and have such a cute baby! Love y’all

[@r_arringt0n]

Griffin keeps getting even more adorable!!! His cooing had me cracking up!!! Happy holidays Matt, Abby & Baby Griffin!!! 💗💗💗

[@starbucksgirl652]

I have the same problem when we go home for the Holiday's. I finally let the family know that I was going to be at Grandmom's house all day Sunday. This was the best way to have a stress free holiday. Love the channel.

[@kelleymontgomery7323]

Merry Christmas Matt, Abby and baby Griffin! ❤🌲☃️❄️

[@drnancysjohnson3844]

Griffen isn’t just a darling baby, he’s a beautiful baby. You two leave me breathless w/ all of your energy & projects. 300+ thank you cards? No addresses? I’d run away from home! Not you, & then having to put up w/ Matt acting silly while you try to keep writing.! I admire your diligence & patience. You go Girl!

[@apostolicgirl]

Dear Matt and Abby, Y'all are no joke the BEST parents I've every seen I cannot believe how much griffin has grown and I love being able to watch him grow up with y'all he's just so stinking cute and y'all do amazing parenting and y'all are very cute couple too 🥰💕
