Don't worry about the daycare haters. Daycare is good for both kiddos and parents ✌🏻

[@MoonMagickMayhem]

Trust me, if I could afford day care even twice a week, I'd do it! My first daughter was super easy-going nut my middle child is a 4 year old neurodivergent Leo and she is something else! She drains me like nothing else. I knew when I got pregnant with her though that she'd be payback for having such an easy first child haha. My third is also very chill, thankfully. If my middle was my first, I probably would have stopped at 1 lol. My 3rd was pur pandemic baby and she came really close in age to my second so I didn't realize just how crazy it would be haha.

[@PamelaH_HappyVibes]

Absolutely!

[@PamelaH_HappyVibes]

@@MoonMagickMayhem- it DOES get better! Mine are grown now. Btw, my parents had my Sister first, then me, and my Mom and Dad said they could still try for a boy. But, I was less than a year old and they KNEW I was a handful. lol So, because I was wild I don’t have a little Brother or Sister. 😂

[@jobutler-mills5142]

I worked at a daycare for many years and I saw the good effects it had on both the children and the parents. You are a great mom!!

[@Ginmabes]

I think daycare is awesome! I don't have kids but when I would pick up nephew up from daycare it was so fun to see all the little interactions and learning and sweet connections between him and the teachers and kids. He learned all kinds of cool things like yoga breathing, te reo Maori, and how to make pals with his peers.

[@LinneaMejfeldt]

Tip for dealing with mom guilt, ask yourself this question: “does my child seem happy?” I bet that most parents would say that, yes their child seems happy, and that means you’re doing a great job. It has helped me a lot. Be kind to yourself and always remember that YOU know your child the best.

[@lexysharp3341]

Been a silent followers for a long time, but I just wanted to say thank you for still creating with us ❤

[@lobnasaeed]

You said it all regarding parenting!! I feel like that all the time. Love you so much shannnn love youuuu❤❤❤

[@ashleyc2525]

Sending your kids to daycare is very important for their socialization skills and early learning. My son can sing a song in French and Spanish and he learned that at daycare! I don’t care if you’re the best mom in the world, there will be things that someone else can do better! You’re doing a great thing for Porter by sending him to daycare!

[@samanthameyer8419]

I've never had much desire to be a mom, and anytime I tell people its because I like to sleep, they look at me like I'm crazy. Sleep has such a huge impact on my mood and my ability to regulate my emotions, and I don't know if I would have the patience 😂

[@87Ashlee]

Omg same, amongst other reasons as well;)

[@user-op5gq6gd3b]

I was sssoo scared of that part too. I slept so little because of work so I knew how it felt. But fortunately my daughter sleeps all night since she was 4 months old. But for working ladies it IS difficult. You don't magically get superpowers. That's a lie! Gotta have an understanding partner and family support! .

[@mrs_hindson7239]

I sent my boy to day care a couple of days, not just so I could have a break and get some jobs done, but also so he could have some interaction with his own age group and learn about other kids before starting in reception at school. It's important for both of you. Also, the music thing... The number of times I realised I was listening to Phineas & Ferb when he wasn't even in the car 😂 ....🤦🏾‍♀️ You are doing a good job! My boy is 17 next month 🤯 It flies by!

[@vegemitegirl1971]

The Yukka palette always reminds me of your Native palette, which I have and used so much that it now has 2 empty pans and pan has been hit in several others.

[@shaaanxo]

so true its like a combo of native and a little bit of my terracotta palette too haha

[@KairiiKaijuu]

Minus the blue liner, you have given me the BEST idea for my bridesmaids makeup for my friends wedding in September. I had no idea what to do to match her colors that wouldn't look strange with my black dress and I'm now SO EXCITED. It's gonna be just different enough but still so pretty. I love it so much 😍😍😍😍

[@LinneaMejfeldt]

My son turns 2 in about a month, so he’s just a couple of months older than Porter. And he has just started to want to cuddle a little. I also think that it highly depends on their personality and also might be a sign that your child feels comfortable and doesn’t need to seek comfort to feel safe (not saying that all cuddly children doesn’t feel safe).

[@jordanlehr3402]

You are doing a great job! Loved the makeup today as well!! As a new mom, I feel like I'm doing nothing right...good to know I'm not alone.

[@shannaf6332]

Our daughter is about to be 8 years old. I got my tubes removed last August....and until that day people were still asking when we were having another lol when we started trying for her we planned to have a couple children. I think when even just a couple weeks old we already knew she was it. We were done. We were content with just her. N it was almost impossible to convince people we would only have one....ever. n not change our mind.

[@shaaanxo]

i swear its almost MORE taboo to only have one child rather than none or 2+ lol

[@shannaf6332]

@shaaanxo EXACTLY! lol if I say I want 5 no one bats and eye...but just one? Nope no way not acceptable lol

[@staceychico]

This color combo!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@ceciwolfcat7]

We always welcome a new video Shan.☺️ It’s hard having a kid no matter how old you are, especially when they’re sick. I’m glad you got in extra cuddles, see you’re already reaping the blessings. Follow your instincts always and if you’re needing help always go to his pediatrician.😉 Love this lewk!🫶🏼

[@batmanrobin2011]

Daycare is so good for socializing and they learn a lot. I’ve worked in childcare before I had toddlers ages 2-4 and I did letters, colors days of the week, months of the year numbers and shapes with them

[@saramarie0521]

I’m a strong believer in using daycare! My kids had some amazing teachers that they loved! It’s good for kids and Moms 🤍

[@Angelface761]

You don’t have to explain anything you do for your son to haters. You’re his mom, you do what you do best, you got it

[@kendallcarraway294]

I understand you about being a parent. It's hard, fun, sad and rewarding all in the same. Also I pick my face to. Thank you for being so honest.

[@chasitymoon9132]

Daycare is healthy for both , kids and parents. Kids have to learn how to socialize and interact with others. Don’t let haters ruin what works for and your family.

[@brookewatson9531]

I’m not a parent but I know that my nieces and nephews have learned so much about sharing and playing with other kids from interacting with other kids their age at daycare! I think it’s a great way for them to socialize and meet new little friends! You’re doing an awesome job with Porter!

[@aboveyoungbeauty7117]

This look is STUNNING on you as always babe ❤

[@jenifergorman1223]

Tell people with opinions of your life and what you do to kick sand! It’s no one’s business. People never cease to amaze me with their opinionated rudeness. You do you!

[@jaidenboucher0]

i love these grwms

[@Lauren9x]

Favourite time of the week when there’s a new video!!❤🎉

[@natarshahaworth5061]

We had 3 kids go thru day care and they loved it . When it comes to going to school, the juggle is real, when balancing work. Especially with all the school holidays! 😅

[@lahlm1887]

Love the eye shadow. TFS. Girl you are totally rocking being a mother. Don't let anyone guilt you. You will have enough guilt with the coming years. All the best.

[@deeniemcqueen]

A good daycare is valuable! I remember my daycare days and how much fun it was. Kids learn so many social skills that they can take into school later.

[@charlottelouise157]

Absolutely love your videos & vlogs xx

[@amandagail2487]

I will say this about being a mother…bad moms don’t worry about being a good mom. Let that sink in. When you’re concerned about doing good and being your best, just know that you are in fact being a good mom. ❤

[@georginawheller7758]

Coffee grind fast tip: oily beans (eg; organic or Brazilian are often pretty oily or greasy - can tell by the residue they leave on surfaces sometimes) need to be made slightly more course in ground because they pack down quick tightly and stick together making it harder for water to be pushed through. Less oily beans you can have ground alot finer. The tighter that beans are packed down the less space they've got for water to drip through and the more pressure the water needs to get through (think of it like pouring water through pebbles) . This can be seen when you see that the coffee drips out suuuuper slow like one drip at a time. If you're grind is too coarse the water will slip through really fast all at once (think of water running through large rocks instead of pebbles) . Ideally you want your coffee to take between 23-30 seconds to come out. Longer than that = grind is too fine. Shorter = grind is too course. Hope this helps!! 🥰

[@Flowerchyld222]

Just here to let you know I appreciate the lack of patience and overall realness and agitation in this video LOL I just love how relatable you are. Keep being you Shan we love you!

[@susielee5634]

My absolute favorite look you've ever done!! You look STUNNING!!!

[@JenJen-zh2of]

I think it’s terrible that people give you a hard time about Porter. Having him at daycare is good for socializing for him and it’s good for you for working. Sending love and hugs ❤

[@makeinc.2346]

I love your honestly soo much. You make me feel like a normal person ❤

[@calicat1996]

My mom was a stay at home mom through my entire childhood, we never had baby sitters or werent with her. I commend her and am so greatful but i think it would have been great for me to socialize earlier (always been introverted with social anxiety) and we were my moms life, which again so blessed such an honor, but i never got to see her chase any dreams or anything outside of us kids. I think its a great healthy balance for social skills and alsk to see you as not just mom but also as a company owner and entrepreneur etc etc. I think from what weve seen youve been doing such a great job and porter is such a lucky babe. Also im 28 no kids and i cannot do no sleep i need like 10-12 hours a night or i feel like im gunna die lol, i feel like that would be my biggest struggle similar to you. I think exhaustion wise too with two it often evens out as they have somebody to play with and can entertain each other. For now tho i be loving auntie life 😜

[@kaylanetworks]

This makeup look is SO 🔥❤️‍🔥

[@ashleynelson500]

The woman who was took care of me and my sister at daycare was like a second mother, I was absolutely devastated when she passed away. He will learn and experience so much from daycare.

[@taesha896]

I feel the SAME way about the Roman numerals! I don't recall learning it but everyone seems to know them 😂🤷‍♀️

[@emilyovereem9974]

you NEED to try the flower beauty light illusion foundation, it's the best one i've ever tried and it's affordable too! i feel like it would be up your alley x

[@gaill7908]

My fave vids are when you do a full face of first impressions and everything is horrible and turns into a hot mess!! Although you manage to make it all look great in the end! 😂😂

[@JustAloraJay]

I only come to KZbin for the OG KZbin girlies. Please upload literally anything 🙏🏼 always down to binge some Shannon ❤

[@AshleyPfister-mu2kc]

I’m not feeling 100% and I’m in bed eating soup while watching your videos and it makes me feel cozyyyyyyy ❤

[@Zoeykw1087]

I know if i get bad sleep or very little sleep i am a crabby person the next day, its like game over already lol I hope you get great sleep soon 😴💤😴

[@ninablack2516]

The older I get the less I cope with the heat...cant wait for winter in Western Australia 💛💛 You are a working mum...this is your child . The only opinions that should matter are yours and Hamishes.

[@laurence.d.a]

As a young mom, I relate to everything happening in this video so much 😂😂😂❤

[@og_tgeesey]

I love how real you are 😂❤ I feel you girl. Summer sucks

[@jenniferrhoads3322]

YES! Omg, being hot makes me SO angry!! 😂

[@mayasondhi1469]

oooo the beach babe makeup look is a vibbbeeee!!!!!! ❤❤❤

[@nikolinekjellberg]

Loved this look, the danessa myricks palette looks insane!! And the lip combo, chefs kiss! But I prefered it matte tbh, still gorgeous tho xx

[@BeautyBySage]

Gorge makeup and girl! The hair is giving golden goddess💛

[@halfgoddess_halfhell]

Oh love. You'll always sleep differently when that baby of yours is sick. Mine are 10, 11, and 15 and I still struggle with sleep when they are sick. Mommas don't get time off, man. That's for sure! 🖤🖤

[@87Ashlee]

Your children will remember that when they grow older❤️ I’m very grateful for my mom who always took care of me when I was sick and I was sick a lot;)

[@RedLipshtick]

I’m self employed too and have 2 kids, one is 6 and goes to school but the other is 1. It is soooooo hard to try to work when you have your kids at home. They always need something and there’s constant interruptions. It gets so frustrating! We never sent them to daycare, but we looked into it. I totally get why you have Porter go to daycare!! It’s a lot to try to balance both!!

[@ellalle]

When you moved the mic, it sounded better. I liked summer when I was younger but not so much now. I can't tell if I love spring or fall more. I think spring might be the best after a long winter. It's warm, sunny, and you can do more things (vs just staying indoors). Fall is good for all the holidays.

[@ann-mareefellows4391]

gonna have to stop u right there babe!!! ur absolutely smashing life..and jealousy is absolutely the only reason you get hated on bout daycare. the mum gig is tricky n its so easy to lose yourself, so dont u dare guilt urself. we all find the balance side of mum life hard..but u b killing it. random question time lol, do you use one of those led masks, would love ur opinion (brands, benefits, etc)and any other girls who love theirs too would love ur input.....

[@Alli11999]

I have been really getting back into drugstore makeup so any foundation from a drugstore that’s new I would love a first impression. I really value your opinion and most of the time what you love I love.

[@simplyellenxo95]

Just don’t be too hard on yourself…❤ everyone’s gna be understanding for you…😊

[@aprilwest254]

Hi, do you think the yucca palette would look good on dark blue eyes?💙🦋

[@shaaanxo]

I think it would suit any eye color tbh!!

[@makeinc.2346]

Haha i love hearing you pronounce Spanish words! La Jolla is pronounced like “La Hoya”

[@user-uc1nn1dq8f]

My 3 year old just started headstart and he is enjoying it but I miss him so much but it gives me more time with my youngest which is 8 months but I do understand feeling guilty I do several times a day.

[@leopoldinef.5821]

I have my son with me one day during the week and I work from home on that day but man it is hard. I’m only half focused on work and half focused on him and at the end of the day I feel guilty for not having worked hard enough and for not having spent enough time with my son 😖 and it’s just one day. So of course you need to put your son in daycare to be able to work properly !

[@zuzulina1884]

I loved watching your GRWM videos with your favourite electronic music, I just jammed with you every time ❤ How about making such videos again, while P's in daycare, and this will be your own little space again ♥

[@Celenababy3]

I would love to see that Valentine’s Day makeup/vlog video you made please 🙏 ❤

[@melanie-sq5bs]

the look is stunning! you look amazing. usher rollerskating was I guess maybe to depict its significance in the black community, it’s very popular. I thought it was pretty entertaining. I can’t even roller skate at all, so it’s crazy to see how well people can dance in them!

[@jrbritt21]

I love the weird swoopy liner ❤

[@TattooGurl1977]

Yes very much so yes I live in Canada where it's cold most of the time so I'm not used to the heat so in summers when it gets to like 40C I become the most grumpy person alive and of course I don't have AC because it's a waste of money for like 2 months of summer.

[@jrbritt21]

Ugh I wanted to see this look with a more brown lip, but as always this look is stunnning

[@OrmaliSmith]

Yes, please upload the date night grwm

[@PamelaH_HappyVibes]

I’m so glad to hear you were a happy only child. My Grandson is going to be an only child and I was a little worried. I’m feeling better hearing from adults that were happy that they were only children.

[@hannahsheppard5311]

Loveeee this look! So cool!!

[@king921]

Daycare is good for kids, my kids thrived there..I still love the makeup looks, grwm videos..

[@marzbarj16]

i just placed an ulta order and got the halo glow to try for the first time😆 i feel like i'm the last person on earth to try it lolllll i've never tried the ff, so its kinda my first time trying something like that. i saw someone who was fair skinned say shade 1 was too dark for them, so when they released even lighter shades, i was sooo stoked!!! i think mine is shade 0.5 (i'm ultra pale lol), so hopefully its not too dark😅 i also ordered the halo glow loose setting powder (ljght pink vers😉), the new hydrating camo cc cream, their halo glow contour wand, and the lash n roll mascara! theres a couple other items from other brands i ordered too, but its basically an elf haul😂😂😂

[@stephanietorres5679]

I like the green eyelook!!!❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊

[@Federstedt]

Omg everything you said about sleep I say too! 😂

[@emilycraddock3557]

Girl. We tried doing IVF mid last year. And it didn't work, so we decided no more kids. Like 100% no more. Just our 2.5 year old. Found out at Christmas I was pregnant (and I was back on BC) lol. It took ALONG time to come around to it. 😊😂

[@71579musiclover]

Hey girl ❤I think your blue eyeliner looks nice😊

[@Zoeykw1087]

Do you mind trying the Lady Gaga foundation by house labs? ❤

[@shaaanxo]

Omg I have that somewhere!! Lol thanks for reminding me

[@nicolesbeautyroom1494]

Hi sweetie. That Fushi color is a cream to powder. They build slow. Love you babe. Your a great mum. To answer your question. Yes you always feel like your doing everything wrong. Your doing a great job. xoxo

Beautiful look!

[@JenniferLeeHogan]

I would love to see you try Kash beauty 🖤 love your videos and appreciate your opinion xx

[@alphabookworm]

So many thoughts about this video. First! Who is giving you grief for placing YOUR child in daycare when you need to work!!??? Find a hobby guys. Leave moms/parents alone. You are a great mom, Shan. Keep doing what works for you and your family. Next, so happy you are enjoying your coffee machine. I know it was hard to decide which one to buy, and looks like you nailed it. Sorry you lost a tomato plant. Hopefully you can salvage it with ground stakes or whatever. Luckily you planted quite a few of them so you should be good still. Lastly, LOVED this entire makeup on you. It is nice to get away from the stressors in our lives and just have a play sometimes. I always enjoy seeing what you create. Please be kind to yourself, my friend. You have multiple full time jobs, and you are only one person. Yes you have a fantastic support system, but you are with you all the time, and just have to remember how much you are killing it out there every day. ❤️

[@jessicabevan2198]

I was 18 when my brother was born 😅 I enjoyed it as I felt like I was a big kid and loved being a big sister still do. But sometimes pepole would think I was his mum 😂 but I'm not lol. So yeah have them close together is allways good. 😊

[@dawncampbell9385]

You are important You are awesome You are talented You are who we love Screw the haters

[@caitlinbaker36]

I'm pregnant with my first and I already know I'm done 😂😂 honestly never wanted children at all but it happened and although I'm excited about my baby now, the pregnancy journey has been too much and I hate it. I'm not good with little sleep either so I'm definitely not wanting to have another one lol

[@olliebear3685]

P.s my mum was a STAHM and I never went to play group until I was like 4 and only 1 day a week at the most... and I have social issues. They NEED the socialisation.

[@annamarial2960]

Oh my God I am with you on the 2nd child thing. My son is 6, he can do a lot of things on his own now. Having another would disrupt a perfect routine, I don't know how I could manage with 2! I mean I know I would -duh, moms are badasses - but yeah. No.

[@haleydiven9538]

Same on the roman numerals, I have no clue which is which

[@jessicalynn8746]

I actually like the lighting and volume in this video. Other videos sometimes the lighting is so bright in different parts makes it a little hard to see what you are holding up ect

[@beverleysteele1106]

i think its pronounced LA HOYA ,i love the green eyes stunning

[@MorticiaLaMourante]

@shaaanxo Slow. Rhythmic. Diaphragmatic breathing. In for a count of 5, out for a voint of 7. Research is based on 20 mins per day of practice, but if you can only do 10 mins, that's fine. Get familiar with the technique, then you will have it in your brain when you're feeling super stressed or anxious. Most of my patients with anxiety are taught this because it is extremely effective. I'd go into the long explanation of why and how it works, but too much for a comment!

[@kgarasich1]

Micellar water always get everything out of the carpet! Strange I know lol

[@hannahpilisko7085]

I feel eeeeeverything you’re saying about having a second - honestly the sleep deprivation itself is traumatising! In my case I adored being pregnant and would love to be pregnant again, a second child though 👀

[@irishaoife31]

I might be wrong, but I think when a toddler isn't clingy/v. cuddley, it can be a good sign they have a very secure attachment and don't need that comfort and reassurance as often as insecure children. Toddlers should be confident to leave caregivers side to explore, knowing caregiver is nearby and there for them when they need them. 💜
