[@jessmin6288]

We can tell! Yalls look so happy and fulfilled! So happy for yalls!! ❤

[@bellawells5430]

We can tell lol by the laughing and happiness because I do that too whenbi am super tired I go slightly crazy lol. Do you guys love my handmade blanket. Natasha said you got it and really appreciate it. Love you Guys, bless you!!!🥰🙂💕

[@iyanulapite]

Is it only me that thinks baby Micah looks more like Chad?! I've tried but I only see Tori's chin. But He's 100%cute for sure. And blessed ofcourse

[@claireforget2600]

"In those seasons of waiting, you feel like God is withholding versus preparing. Lean into what he is doing in the season of waiting and how he is preparing you for the promise versus withholding the promise." This added a whole new dimension to my prayer life. I will be praying with this and contemplating this for a couple weeks❤

[@mamablue007]

When we are in a season of waiting, we keep focused on the phrase, "delayed but not denied."

[@corensae.8074]

You have a new “tiny hand” in the mix! Congratulations to you both, such a beautiful addition to your family 🙏🏻

[@suelenmontenegro]

Have you realized how much you used to cry to be parents and now you are laughing constantly and loving your little boy in every moment you can! How great is our God! 🙌🏻

[@annalisemetzger7000]

I love following y'all! I have a Micah as well and I am going through a tough season of longing and waiting and your videos are so so fun and encouraging. I have been married for 5 years and so far I have three precious little ones the Lord has blessed with and I desire for more little ones!

[@Diana4Huskers]

Just know it does get better!! And you'll laugh/forget about the hard time's later on. My baby boy just turned 8 months and he was a difficult baby in the beginning. It's so worth it in the end. We got our boy after 7 year's of fertility treatments, and being with my hubby for 20 year's!!

[@kelseycayer7086]

I have never seen Tori smile so much in a video 😍 It’s the sweetest!

[@amruthavarshinisumanohar7135]

There is power in prayer because the One who we pray to is powerful and that baby is the living testament of this. God bless ❤️🥺🥰

[@wellworthitco.8495]

Part Two please!!! It's the perfect "simple" content to film and prepare for in this season.

[@caroelizau]

That answer about sleep and enjoying the season is so true!! I have a 7-week-old (that is currently sleeping on me like Micah is on Tori 🥰) and I like back at her pictures from even just a couple of weeks ago, but especially when she was a newborn and I have so many mixed emotions because she isn't a tiny peanut anymore and she is growing up 😭😭😭 but she is getting so big and I can see her eyes taking everything in and starting to laugh and smile and it also gives me so much joy 🥰😭❤

[@Mia-uv8co]

The noises Micah makes 🥰 sooo precious and so funny! Its so beautiful to see all three of you together 🤗

[@vandaaltje]

Aww I love all his noises! And I love seeing your guys so so happy!! 🥺🥰

[@aubreyidleman]

It is so crazy to see this thumbnail! After years of watching you guys, it’s so cool to see the Lord, working in your life!

[@sarahnunez7865]

Congratulations y’all! He’s precious. ❤️ Please pray for our little boy, David. He was born on 11/25 and sent to the NICU 12 hours after birth. ABO incompatibility caused dangerously high bilirubin levels. He’s been here four days so far and he’s improving soooo much already. God has been so faithful..levels like his could’ve caused neurological defects like cerebral palsy. Just pray he gets to come home with us soon ❤️

[@AD-zb4bm]

Just said a prayer❤

[@euniceasamoah4297]

Lord heal baby David IJN

[@courtneyhaselberger2382]

Dear Lord, please heal baby David completely. In Jesus’s name, Amen.

[@lilyw9324]

Will be praying! ❤❤

[@the_sower]

Amennn❤

[@TreasureLovely]

I felt such peace while watching this video, that it made me smile, knowing God was with me as I listened to you both speak. I'm a single mom of an 8 and a half year old boy and he's my entire world. I know the joy and hardship you're facing, while being able to know in hindsight that it moves way too fast. Sometimes as parents, we need reminders to slow down and cherish even the fire we have to walk through to get to the gold. So I thank ya'll for that today. I pray that God continues to bless your little family. Micah is such a sweet, precious, angel 💙

[@therealnechama]

How beautifully put! I feel the same❤

[@lilyw9324]

❤❤ May God bless you and your sweet boy as well!

[@sierragarza2174]

You guys are the sweetest parents. Micah is so blessed. The newborn stage is hard, but it will only last temporary. You got this!

[@natashapinerostachita9755]

that description though!! 🔥🔥🔥 life is going to keep moving wether you are ready for it or not. let's dress appropriately for the season we are in and embrace the uncertainty of change.

[@racheloshaksmusic]

Wow. This video was really encouraging for me. Courage is the ability to accept change ❤️🙏🏾 it takes A LOT of courage. May God make us brave to take it on. Amen. This baby boy is so pure and gorgeous. I love his little sounds.

[@jess1ic5a]

Micah brought joy to your home and in the hearts of so many others! Praying over you guys and feeling so filled up after this video!! Thank you

[@suechristy363]

You two are such beautiful souls. I appreciate your willingness to be so honest, humble and transparent with your fb community. What a blessing you are 🙌🏼 to your new son, the body of Christ and to your viewers. As a longtime Christian Birth Doula, Lactation specialist and mom of many + Grammy to many, I would love to help you process your birth, if you need. My heart and prayers are with you.

[@maccosmeticsfan5973]

Congratulations you three :) It's actually kind of incredible that you found the time to sit down and do a video just days after the birth of your little one. 🥰 Did Tori go into labor doing the baby mama dance? Haha much love to you all ❤

[@brandondoane]

Definitely need a part 2 and / or a part 3 … I love these videos! It really makes us feel like we’re having a genuine Fam conversation with y’all and I take so many notes from these videos! God bless Masters fam!

[@w.k777]

Thank you guys for sharing! May the LORD keep blessing your household.✝️ And by the way, Tori, you now have the face of a mama, and it is beautiful.🥰 Love you guys, from a sister in Christ.🤗

[@kelseyem6481]

I can relate so much to the feelings surrounding labor and delivery. I was planning on a home birth too and I cried when I was told I needed to transfer to the hospital, and I cried when I ultimately needed a C-section and I remember asking God where he went during it all. Looking back now (my baby will be 4 months soon!) I can definitely see His hand in every part of it. It was a true lesson of surrender and trust. I feel like we learn and grow so much through birth, it’s just as much a spiritual experience as it is a physical one. I’m happy for your family and I’m excited to see where God takes you!

[@jesuschristuslebt3523]

😢same thing happened to me I needed to have a c section because of baby’s heart rate kept going down my husband was praying our brother and sister from our church too, but ended it up with a c section I was so disappointed in God but now I can see we don’t have all the control but God does. My son will be 3 month soon I am so happy.

[@jesuschristuslebt3523]

What I am saying you are not alone❤

[@kelseyem6481]

@@jesuschristuslebt3523 yes I agree, it was such a lesson about letting go of control! I’m hoping and praying my next birth goes differently but even if it doesn’t, God is still good ❤️ I’m glad you were able to see God in your story, too. Definitely sounds scary but thankfully you have your sweet baby to remind you it was all worth it!

[@jesuschristuslebt3523]

@@kelseyem6481 Yes, it was a lesson for me too. Hopefully 🙏🏾you will have the next time a better experience all we can do is to really trust him. Yes it was all worth it.

[@jesuschristuslebt3523]

[@yislainneitzel21]

thank you for making time for us, even though you must be tired. We love you🤍

[@bequirivera8540]

PART 2 PLEASE! Welcome to the sweet boy!

[@naomipenner2478]

So so grateful for your lil’ fam! What a blessing Micah is to all of us!💛 Also what Tori was talking about at 16:42 hit me. SO well said!

[@jordandemps6235]

Love seeing you all together! So happy for you guys🤍 would always love a part 2 haha

[@allisonlucas018]

It's so beautiful seeing how filled with joy you are over baby Micah! It's so sweet and definitely an overflowing of the joy of the Lord in your lives!

[@shawnee.]

So beautiful. Such humble and authentic hearts ❤ Thanks for sharing your life

[@kensington323]

Tori, you are so so well spoken, sharing truth with a sound mind and the heart of God. Thank you for being an inspiration to myself and so many others ❤

[@leonelaportillo9652]

The Fathers LOVE without works 😭 Thank you Jesús! 🙌🏼❤️🥰

[@niki_mart]

Part 2!! Loved this, y’all.

[@maraisreynolds9688]

So right about wishing away certain seasons! Babies change so much and in every season there will be difficult things and others will be easier, and then a week later it will change again. Hold onto things loosely and accept the changes and thank God for being faithful and good. ❤️❤️

[@Sincerelykeyy]

On what you’re saying about the season of waiting i can most definitely understand everything you said. There’s a lot of things I’ve been waiting on from God. Of course you have to always do your part too but whenever he gives you what you’ve been asking for after so long it’s just 100x better even when it’s just one thing At a time. It’s all a learning lesson for sure

[@kamahorodaphnepatra]

I believe when you want something,Just believe. If you want a child just believe. I love the perfect description of how God loves us like you (we) love Micah. I needed this pill for my morning from Uganda

[@jenlewis241]

really great vlog, guys! As always, love your authenticity and being open to sharing your experience. Love you guys (including you, Micah!) and thankful for you!

[@taraleasure]

I love this so much. I love what Tori had to share about how she's doing emotionally and the hardest part of being a new mama. I'm a new mama to a 2 month old girl. She's a beautiful blessing and God's gift to us in his perfect timing (getting pregnant our first year into marriage wasn't our plan but it was God's) but it is so hard. I've had to ask God to help me have joy in this new, challenging, beautiful season. Being a mom is the hardest job in the world but nothing worth doing is ever easy.

[@lolaadegbokun8923]

I can completely relate to this. We are going to be married a year next month and baby girl turns a month on Friday. I have to trust that there is a reason God brought her to us soo quickly

[@taraleasure]

@@lolaadegbokun8923 Congrats on almost a year of marriage! I feel the same exact way. We initially wanted to wait at least 2 years before starting a family. Clearly God had other plans and knew we were ready, so I have to believe that He brought her to us so early into our marriage for a reason, and that He is going to grow me in ways I never knew I needed to grow in.

[@lolaadegbokun8923]

@@taraleasure Yes! I completely agree especially about the personal growth aspect. I also believe its going to require me to deepen my trust and intimacy with the Lord

[@sheriturner6118]

Your smiles and laughter are so uplifting. Micah's little noices too precious!!! Enjoy the seasons they really will go by so fast and we you look back, you will be like wow!!!

[@composermalte]

(god's) unconditional love, great wisdom drop by tori round about minute 7. and great encouragement by chad today! : ) Thanks for doing this videos and encouraging others, even when you are tired yourselves! That's truly kind.

[@jlv61560]

Good inspiration today! (And I'll just bet you're tired! I remember those days -- in my case they happened in flight school for the military -- every other day we had to be at the airfield at 4 am to get ready for the day's flights -- and I operated on about four hours of sleep per day for about three months!)

[@carmenjanae]

Y’all’s story and all the waiting and y’all’s journey through it all has helped and inspired me so much this year ... we lost our first baby to miscarriage in February... I rejoiced when y’all finally got that positive test even through my tears. 4 of my best friends were also expecting babies (some very close to the due date when mine would have been born.) we are still in the waiting season . . . This year has been full of questions and doctor visits . . . (I have a partial septate uterus) BUT we finally have a surgery to fix that scheduled NEXT WEEK! There is finally a light at the end of the tunnel 😭🤍 prayers would be much appreciated that surgery would be successful and ultimately that my womb would be completely healed to safely carry babies in the future! 🤍 we are one step closer to also have a miracle from heaven in our arms! 😭🤍

[@iuliaturcas4348]

Love the new cozy vibes of your videos🤍 can’t wait to watch and be up to date on how this new life season is for your lovely family 🤗 May God bless you and be with you every step of the way in this journey as a family of three! 🤍

This is Soo good to see that from just two of you on the video for the past years and now you're 3 now. Aweee baby masters is here too for the q and a 🤗🐼

[@THINGSiDOofficial]

My husband got healed from the gaging recently! Every morning during teethbrushing or even while getting dressed he would make really loud sounds as almost throwing up and keeping it the last second. At the beginning it was just soo funny to me, but maybe half a year ago I realized God can remove this, its like a bondage, torture, not the blessed life in fullness God wants for us, so I added it to my prayers from time to time and last week we realized we dont even know when it last happened! So he tested all the things that triggered it and watched himself for a few days, but he is totally free! Praise God!

[@benthevanrumpt2797]

You guys are the cutest! Loved the updates and you look so so happy and in love! So of course we all need more episodes hehe :))

[@VictoriaTalbert_]

Y’all don’t know how much I needed this video. I am currently in my first trimester and I’m “miserable.” I don’t have like severe nausea or anything but I am living in a different state than my family and I have been so homesick. I’m really emotional I pray and then I get sad because I feel like God isn’t listening but oh my when Tori was speaking about the waiting period I was just speechless. God has always spoken to me through videos all the time especially through y’alls so how could he not be listening to me. Of course he’s still here holding me and comforting me. I just have to remember even if I’m sad or “miserable” (I’m so dramatic 😅) he’s still here I just have to wait till April when I can go back home and be around my family. Gods timing is perfect. Thanks soooo much for this video it helped me so much.

[@emmam3416]

So much sweetness in a video I love it!

So happy for y’all, what a blessing! I can relate to birth not going as planned, I just had to remind myself it may not have been my plan but it was God’s. I have 7 children and the first birth was so rough, I was so scared for the second birth but the rest was a breeze. ❤

[@mamaat5682]

Awww, i remember those times I had a 18 mth and twins all at one time😅felt like I did not sleep at the beginning. But a schedule was a must to be able to function. That schedule saved me. I would turn on symphony music during there nap time and had it quite at bedtime. When they started naps I would let them sleep 2 hrs while I clean and bathed and then woke them up after the 2 hrs so they could sleep through the night. I would emphasize how important a schedule or same routine is so important and will help so much. I am a mother of 5. Hope this helps😊. Enjoy the moments they grow fast my twins are 10😢.

[@nia5128]

I’ve been listening to Bill6 Graham’s sermons lately. They’re really good and challenging. You’ve never looked more beautiful btw Tori even though you’re tired.

[@aurorap.7578]

For the question about struggling with time with God. Ask God to give you the time, I would personally pray something like. "Lord spending time with you is really important to me can you please help me and give me some time everyday where I can do this because I'm struggling right now and I want and need to spend time with you."

[@natashapinerostachita9755]

Micah: "am I the drama?"
