Who Am I. Around The House Happenings! Bake With Me, Gardening (kind of) & Clean With Me!

Hey party people! Thanks so much for hanging out with me while I share with you this new around the house happenings vlog! I am still strutting my way through morning sickness so I appreciate you bearing with me as the vlogs may seem a bit different or less productive than usual. Today I did a little front porch makeover / I decorated it for the first time haha I love how it came out! Then I made some breakfast for dinner and made my own butter! It was delicious! And then of course I cleaned up around the house a bit! I hope you enjoy hanging out with me and getting a little motherhood motivation!
Best,
Kim!

I used to feel like a terrible wife and mom because of the everyday mess. I used to think it wasn’t normal and I’d fuss and yell at the family. You’ve helped me realize this is normal. I’m so much more relaxed and do it now with joy. This is everyone’s reality. I seriously had no idea. Thanks for exposing reality. Lol. Love ya.

[@thewadsquad]

You are so amazing. Thank you for saying this and having the same reality as me! I think we see IG and YT and how seemingly everyone “has it together” and my reality is, messy. Haha so I’m glad you can relate and I appreciate your kindness ♥️♥️♥️

[@CherokeeMaiden81]

@@thewadsquad Have you seen how many of those people have been exposed for being fake? Never compare your reality to their lies. Their own reality isn't what they pretend it is.

[@jera4121986]

I couldn’t have worded it better. I feel the same. I constantly stress over making my house look perfectly clean…..well I have 3 under the age of 6 so there is always gonna be a little mess. I’ve come to realize that it’s just mom life right now and it’ll get better. Thank you for your comment and thank you Kim for your realness that we can relate to

[@vickieforner7414]

So true... her " it is what it is " attitude has helped me so much!!!

[@findingaway5512]

Mess is normal around my house 🙂 There are lots of mamas who have mess out there.... Infact pretty much all of us at any point in time. Definitely don't stress the mess!!!! Glad you have seen that mess happens to us all. ❤️😊

[@brilliantbutblue]

"What the heck" your house looks exactly like most of ours Kim, you are just keeping it real! 👍

[@thewadsquad]

Yiu guys are so awesome! I’m so glad you guys appreciate the realness and embrace the chaos with me! Sometimes messes happen because we prioritize spending time with our kids over cleaning- but we always get around to it!! ♥️🎉

[@meeganvs1636]

When we were going through a difficult season of life I hired someone just to clean the main areas of my house every other week. It was soooo helpful. I miss it so much.

[@spink273]

Loved your front porch plants 🪴 Very welcoming 🏠

[@annieireland623]

For real though!

[@70foolio]

Love the “Lived in Look” of a home. Because people live in the home, it isn’t a photo shoot. But I also give you extra credit for filming and giving advice while preg and tired. You look fabulous even if you think your a wreck.

[@denisecole6128]

Many of us wish we looked so good.

[@cindylaffoon607]

I love the entryway it looks great. Your plants in the back need less light. Maybe but behind your pillars in the back instead of on the counter

[@Youknowitsjenn]

“Set a timer for 20 minutes” and then standing there eating bacon is SUCH a mood. LOL How are you liking the scrub mommy??

[@thewadsquad]

Lollll I was like… not yet… 🥓 the scrub I was using was just a normal flower shaped sponge 💀😂 I thought it was the scrubby mommy but it isn’t I haven’t cracked into that one yet!!

[@aimee2234]

Your house looks great lil' mama. Don't sweat the small stuff. The entryway is superb & that flamingo is the bomb diggity! You got this. I love breakfast for dinner and Cracker Barrell does have some unique gifts and great sales. Thank you for sharing your day with us. Best wishes for feeling better soon, Kim! xoxo

[@martegulbrandsen1308]

@@thewadsquad you know... This shocked me... But last summer I saw some cool flamingoes I would love to have.... But then my son i law to be(I hope) asked me what a famingo outside means..... ? I had no clue offcourse, but I'm happy he told me.! .. It means you are open for some swinging ! 😲🤯🙈 You know, like an open invite for other couples to come visit for some "fun" together! 🤪 And my plan was to have them in my garden where we are camping.... 🤐 Didn't end up buying one....👌😁 And you being pregnant and feeling not so hot... I thought I would tell you for safety reasons 😅😂😂😂😂 But is it true? I don't know! I loved your pretty famingo! They are so fun and pretty! But it's spoild for me no, here in Norway... It may be a local thing from where my son in law is from though... People can be strange in an tiny local village in the middle nowhere here in Norway😂 even if he is ok...😂👌

[@kh1386]

The plants on the front porch look great! You did a wonderful job. Hope you start feeling better.

[@thewadsquad]

Thanks so much! Slowly getting better! I am loving the plants! Now I’m obsessing over the backyard haha bought more planters yesterday! 🎉 🌱

[@iuldia]

My routine when having a tough day at work: go home, make me good coffee, check if Kimberly Whisk uploaded a new video or finally got the call from the food network. You brighten my days, thank you!

[@CK-ij6rx]

Finally got the call from the Food Network 😂 Yasss!

[@blancavaldez6986]

6:25 “Are you doing your dishes with me?” No ma’am, I’m laying in bed sipping on my coffee. 😆 I’ve been in pain for days (do to a chronic desease) so I finally decided to take the day off. You’re doing a great job Kim! ❤️

[@kathykwilliams6457]

You also have 4 little people running around your house plus EXTRA ONES!!!! DON'T BE HARD ON YOURSELF!!! PREGNANT OR NOT, YOU ARE AMAZING! YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL! YOU ARE ENOUGH!! YOU ARE JUST FABULOUS!!!

[@amandadavispomeroy]

Thanks for using the little bit of energy you have left to share your life with us. Hope you keep feeling better!

[@michelleslikelystories6266]

I like how the girls walked by and didn't say a word about the mixer splashing out. Probably thinking mom's making another Pinterest thing so we are just going over here 😂. I heard that you should rinse your butter so it lasts longer. Your energy gives me energy

[@thewadsquad]

Yes rinsing butter! The tip that everyone knows but me!! Haha thanks so much! And yes the girls were trying to be stealth - probably grabbed something from the pantry knowing dinner was soon haha

[@leeanneaquilina]

I also heard to let it drain for a little while but I've never made butter in purpose

[@MrsAlmaTrumble]

[@FrolleinMiez]

You did such a great job with the plants and everything in front of the house. Love the set up! 🤗 You put so much effort and love into making a beautiful home for your family and it shows. Your house is so full of life and fun. And visitors seem to love coming over to you guys. In my book that is all far more important than everything looking perfect all the time. For me as a one person household it's already a lot to keep up with everything. So I am in awe of how you do it all honestly. Now with being pregnant... Miracle work in my eyes. 🙌🏻

[@Samanthasmiles2002]

[@teridavis5785]

I absolutely love watching your videos. I found your page during Covid and you always make me smile! As a mom of grown daughters, I love gleaning from what you do,as I have granddaughters and you inspire me to do practical but fun things. Not to mention I cook more lol! I don’t comment often and I really should! I’ve been very sick for the last 23 weeks after Covid and they are still running tests to figure out what is wrong and why I have so much discomfort, nausea, and fatigue. I’m not expecting lol but I sure feel like. Anyway, I live in Florida and while we get the beautiful beaches I so understand the awful humidity. Hope you have an amazing day!

[@donnaevans2005]

The front porch looks fabulous! And praying for you that you begin to feel better soon! Always like the middle months of pregnancy the best!

Earliest I have ever been …… I needed this shot of happy today , thank you Kim x

[@thatcanadianmom]

Kim your house looks fabulous!! I home school 5 kids and we're always in it and it feels like it's always a mess. Being pregnant is exhausting. The kids are still alive and fed at the end of the day it's a win in my book. I can't wait to see your Herb garden that you end up putting in period. Gardening can be so much fun.

[@cupcakeBonnie]

Your amazing I swear you made me laugh so much I so needed this!!! I fell down the stairs on Sunday so I been just in the couch 🛋 24/7 and you made me so happy 😁 thank you so much!! God bless you

[@taylortrione6913]

Yes I definitely have more “expectations” for my family and house. Everything definitely needs a mothers touch! Hope you feel better soon. When I was pregnant with my second baby in 2020 I was so sick daily. It’s rough to keep up with everything when you feel like total trash! Thanks for your videos. Very motivating to me also shows that we all have messes and struggles.

[@taniasprout7102]

Thank you so much for sharing your time with us when you are not feeling so good. When I was pregnant with my son I was always feeling dizzy and nauseated. Lots of bed rest became so boring but I could not do anything. I am happy for you and your expanding family. Continue being the great Mom that you are.

You’re so entertaining, I love that you talk all through your videos. Crockpot meals are so yummy.

[@xenade1890]

Everything in your home is beautiful. Love the Nick pillow

[@chereeburtner4659]

I had hand surgery and watching your videos in the morning while I'm struggling to manage doing simple things like getting dressed makes me laugh. I'm 66 years old and remember morning sickness well. The fatigue was overwhelming. You are doing the best you can and I can't imagine cooking and cleaning, oh and laundry the way you are holding up. Good momma! And you are right, growing a little human inside you is priority right now. There's always laundry! Take care my friend. You always put a smile on my face 😁

[@AshleyHedrick]

Hello beautiful 💕 Best part of waking up is seeing your video pop up 🙌 1. The plants look great. I’d put the one closest to the ground on a little stool. 2. Meredith is a cutie pie taking the sunglasses and necklace off and on. 3. I miss Amish butter 😭. My husband and I moved to Florida from Ohio. You making butter reminds me of Amish butter and their peanut butter spread 😋

[@laurenalcala4253]

Love your real life video! Meredith is so adorable helping you ❤ I forgot to tell you the entryway looks amazing. Love it!!

[@ellennewth6305]

It never ceases to amaze me how you keep on cleaning, cooking, and organizing ... even with morning sickness. I absolutely LOVE your new flamingo! Meredith was so cute helping you with the plants. As always, fun to hang out with you!

You always put a little happy in my day! :) You are such an amazing mom and person! :) I love your front stoop decorations! :)

[@laruetoombs678]

Like the newly decorated "front stoop" Good job! There are also spray weather protectors for wood if you want to extend the life of your cute stool. In fact, check the spray you use on the flamingo it might work for both. I enjoy watching your channel.

[@wendyomalley6433]

You always make me laugh! Thank you for the joy!

[@jenniferrosser8776]

Hey Kim, you look fantastic! I know exactly what you are going through since I had the same hyperemesis issue. Take it easy and don't stress yourself out. I was never a fan of flamingoes, but now every time I see them (and whisks), they reminds me of your channel. LOL! Feel better soon!

[@sherribrown8756]

Great tip I just learned from a friend... you can melt the butter, then let it cool, add it to really cold buttermilk and it will solidify into little bits. Then just mix it into your dry ingredients. I was worried because every recipe ever talks about the butter being extra cold. But it worked great!!

[@susanoffutt2696]

I love what you did out front. It looks very chic. You get more done in a day not feeling well. Then most of us do in a few days. Well done!!! Little Meredith. She is precious. Your backyard. Wow. Stunning. What a view. Take care. Thank you for your videos. They make my day.

[@kara097]

I love your channel, you are always helping me get motivated to keep up with my house!! I have 4 kids too, so the mess is never ending... lol 😆 Here's a tip for you about the butter: next time you make it, don't forget to wash it after to get all the buttermilk out or it will go rancid faster! Just run it under the tap and squeeze until the water runs clear 😊

[@tiffanysailor8410]
