Loved this video! We had a house fire last Thanksgiving and after about 2 months of recovering we moved back to start over and try again. Since we've back been we've done a lot of research and decided to go vegan. We just hit our 6 month mark a few days ago and we have never felt better. We found this channel in the early stages and haven't stopped watching since. Thank you so much for taking time to show others like us how possible it is to live this lifestyle. You guys are truly an inspiration.

[@elissadavis5657]

Soooooo glad u turned vegan “”because””…..””everything”” u eat “”1st”” has to be converted into sugar (glucose)…….period. U cannot get around that. ALL animal products (& “everything” u eat) 1st has to be converted into usable energy **period**…..period…. ;-) ❤ Sugar (glucose) Carbs Protein Fat Calories r used in that order “”period””.

[@rainedyani8505]

[@TheConscientiousEater]

My sister and I once worked out with 6 kids with us. One in a pack in play, one in a bumbo, and 4 running around outside. It’s possible to workout with kids for sure!

[@empoweredbykee]

I do this 3-4x a week, im a mom of 6, oldest 9 and youngest just turned 1

[@peace4meplz]

Your little family is the sweetest. You are so inspiring Erin!

[@BarbaraAnnB-yi5ew]

Wow thank you for saying you bedshare and nurse your oldest. I have a 14 month old and we nurse and have always Bedshared but our society makes it seem wrong! I feel so empowered and validated that I'm doing it right.

[@EatMoveRest]

Glad you feel that way! We love it!!

[@erinjoella]

Every upload gets better and better I just love and appreciate all that you share with the world and your family is beautiful! I have a 4 year old son and a 7 month old girl - I aspire to model a healthy lifestyle for my family and you guys inspire me so much to keep that a priority ❤

[@samanthac450]

I didn’t realize you were tandem feeding!! Id love to see a video about your experience breastfeeding while pregnant and with a new baby plus toddler. Please share - not many people do this let alone talk about it!! ❤

[@sallybilly1]

I'd love to know more about this too! Breastfeeding my toddler and planning for a next one so wondering how others cope with it

[@EatMoveRest]

Honestly Max breastfeeds in the AM when we wake in bed and at bed time, and that is it! He essentially takes the place of my breast pump haha!! I’ll expand more in a future vid! My best advice starting out is to always prioritize Baby!

[@marissam9279]

Love this so much!! We use The Good and The Beautiful too and love it! I’m going to try to incorporate some of your suggestions into our day! ❤

[@morganecaen]

Best reward system I've used as a nanny is using marble jars. Each kid gets their own jar that the adults keep in a safe place (not for kiddos to play with) and each good day they get a marble in their jar. Once they've reached the desired amount of marbles they can choose to have a treat, a new toy, or an adventure of their choosing. Hope this helps!

[@jessicaz.1901]

I think a star chart is awesome! I couldn't keep up with something like that when my kids were small but I would (& still do) thank them and praise them for good behaviors. When they got a little bigger I posted a checklist of things to do before they can have screens. It's a couple basic chores, reading and outside play time. ⭐

[@mirandaburt4923]

Erin, you’re SUCH a loving and excellent mom!!!

[@jenns4105]

This was one of my absolute favorite videos by you all! I just love your family, wholesome content, and yummy food inspiration! I found your channel a few months ago, and I am so glad I did! I’ve been so blessed by your content! God bless you guys!🙌🏼💕

[@EatMoveRest]

So glad you enjoyed this one! Thanks for the love and support!

[@rainedyani8505]

Another beautiful video, Erin! ❤️ I can’t believe what a great swimmer Max is!

[@hayleysunnex1208]

Awww what a beautiful video!!! You're such a precious family ❤❤ my 2 babies are just both at school this year 🥺 I miss these days at home together, enjoy every moment of this special stage! You guys are amazing! X

[@Dalykd]

Love hearing about the home schooling and pretty much everything else too. It’s great hearing what others with the same values/way of life are doing with their schedules. I for sure need new ideas. So excited for your book!

[@EatMoveRest]

So glad to hear all of that! We are working hard on it!!!

[@EatMoveRest]

I'm so glad! Thats why we love our community, we can all learn from each other and get ideas!

[@heathervanhoof8549]

Nailed it again. Another wonderful video and motivational content. Love the new backsplash in kitchen and your taste in decor throughout eco house is so choice! Most importantly, is the beautiful family inside and out :)

[@lesliereinhardt4908]

I hope your in a safe place. Praying for you and your.🙏

[@daplantgirl]

I love your transparency and realness. 😊

[@HealthyHousewife]

LOVE that you guys are homeschooling!

[@ren8240]

HUGE respect for you for longterm tandem feeding! 🙏💜😊

[@abrahamxraytech78]

You guys are amazing parents!! ❤

[@23hannahbanannah]

Thank you for sharing this! I’m feeling very inspired to get moving more purposefully with the kids around! We have just set up a workout room safe for them to get involved with me with their own dumbbells etc- wish me luck haha! Also, regarding the rewards charts, or repeated rewards in general, while they can be seemingly effective they don’t work in the long run. Research ways to foster intrinsic motivation, internal validation and a growth mindset. A lot of it is us parents modelling and the language we use every day which does take more time and effort but it’s effective in the long run for everyone 👍🏻

[@celestemarsh1718]

Loved the video. You guys are always so inspiring. I love to see your daily routine. I agree, you have to be intentional in working out and taking time for scripture study and prayer. I love how you are teaching your kids through example. Thanks for being a good example to us. Love you guys!! 💕Celeste Marsh

[@emilyvillar4713]

You’re a good Mom! 😊

[@davidthescottishvegan]

A fantastic daily routine video incorporating a what we eat in a day video with yummy food from the beautiful Erin & family. Love 🥰 the video and love 💕 The Stanczyks.

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks so much! 😊 Glad you enjoyed this one!!

[@heathercohenchapple9520]

We use rewards for encouraging positive behaviors and try to give rewards that are experiences like extra 10 minutes at the playground or extra book at bedtime. Sometimes it’s a small toy. We just try not to offer food/treats as rewards. I think the chart can be very helpful for kids with the visual reminder and confirmation they can accomplish their goals. Just started Kindergarten good and the beautiful with my child and we love it.

[@melissaambrosini5411]

Love this video. More of these honey ❤

[@rachelemazza8623]

Great video! Altho my 3 are now older I too used to want to be the source they fed from. It took a while to realize I needed refueling too! Wish I had you (and YT) back then! Hugs, Rachele PS - The squares and small rocks look amazing out back, not only professional but add to the tranquility of the spa-like atmosphere - tell Dusty! PPS - They're getting sooooo big!! See you in March!

[@luvndrip9703]

You’re an inspiration to me! Thank you ✨🙏💕🦋

[@amandarayford9374]

We use that curriculum as well!!! Its been awesome!

[@christypeterson4649]

Love some good routine inspo!!! Also tell us the truth, how hard is it to keep all your amazing new cookbook recipes a secret until next year???😂😂 can’t wait! ❤

[@aliveinchrist2379]

Homeschool! what a blessing :) We homeschool as well

[@user-vn6xo2tc9r]

I loved this and can’t wait for all the future content to come!! Thanks for sharing ✨☀️🧡🔆 I love the idea of a star chat, even though I know there’s a lot of debate on it. I think it can be beneficial if it’s not the main focus of the day/activity!!! Maybe the rewards can be more personal (10 minutes with mom alone in the morning, a trip to the store with dad) versus a tangible object? I love that you’re giving him the option to choose though! The only thing I would be hesitant to reward is “finishing your plate/finishing all your food” as it could cause disordered eating patterns later on (I’ve heard this from numerous pediatric dietitians/nutritionists). Possibly a reward for trying something new instead? But absolutely no hate and you do what works best for Mr. Max!!! 🧡🧡🧡

[@crystalrendon4210]

Great suggestions 👌

[@alicsakurai]

I agree. I think this is a great comment. Personally I don’t intend to use star charts but this suggestion sounds like a good way to go about it if you want to keep using it 😊

[@haleygarner4667]

Love this so much!!! Also love your bedding! Please share where it’s from!

[@paw2287]

Your kids are adorable. Just watched Max do a "nose" dive, lol.

[@emilybrossard2680]

Love this video!! You are so inspiring, Erin! Where is you bedding from?! Love it 😍

[@theloomsistersco.6518]

I love this video so much! I didnt realize how much I had in common with you. Thank you for sharing! I feel more motivated to eat more vegan things and use my TGTB curriculum for my preschooler.

[@EatMoveRest]

You are so welcome! Cool to hear from like minded people!

[@iocphr]

Love this video. :-) What time do you get up in the morning, and when do you go to sleep? A very good idear to have your routines, and a structure through out the day. :-)

[@scwendy6302]

I’m trying to eat as raw as possible but my non-vegan family is not on the same page (yet!). I’m seriously considering your meal plan program to be able to accommodate all of us! I struggle getting a reasonable grocery list completed!!! Love this video❤

[@inspiteofbecauseof4745]

Thanks for sharing.

[@EatMoveRest]

You bet!

[@yokuystermans1098]

I love your videos.

[@Jessicah256]

We use the food and the beautiful for L.A too and love it. My kids have used this curriculum for the past 3 years and are now in level K, 3, and 5. A good math curriculum has been more challenging! If you find something you love please let us know.

[@shannoncook9915]

Can't wait for the hard cover book. I am one of those who like the book in my hand

[@heatherjuliet]

The star chart thing - not a fan and found it backfired and created false motivation in my daughter and then she became obsessed about earning rewards, so I stopped. It’s hard to learn what will work with your kids, so much trial & error. ❤

[@napoleonsgarden5162]

Have to agree with this. I was one of those kids who was more obsessed with getting the praise/reward validation than actually doing a good job and just being proud of myself for accomplishing something.

[@lasweetbrier7965]

The finishing the plate I personally do not like. I try to teach my child to listen to their body, no matter whats left.

[@helena-boateng]

@@lasweetbrier7965 yeah i’ve heard that from nutritionists too

[@plengmini2712]

Such a cute and glam family

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks so much!

[@meganwhite8204]

I saw you were working out with Caroline Girvan! I love her programs! :)

[@phanypieee]

Vegan homeschool mom here 🙏🏻🙌🏻

[@phanypieee]

PS the star chart works!

[@Vamusika]

Always love you videos 💖 you guys are inspiring! Btw, Erin do you use sunscreen? Haven't seen you mention that, and I'm seeing a lot of sun burn. Hope you're using it!

[@paulasmagicland]

I like your videos and they are inspirational 🥰 ...to address the reward topic for kids...this is never good (also the punishments), especially on long-term...you guys can check this online. I know it from multiple sources (atm I just don't remember one in EN, sorry), different great specialists and holistic practicioners! Ah, just remembered one: dr. Shefali Tsbary. Big hugs! 😘💖🧚🏻‍♀️

[@EatMoveRest]

Thanks! Will look into it more! :)

[@jasminm8784]

I agree with regard to rewards. Alfie Kohn has written wonderful books about the danger of reward and punishment. Highly recommend him!

[@SummerAdamsdotcom]

Can you please share the baked oats with pumpkin? Thank you!

[@ginaandoen5811]

Va iubesc sunteți o familie frumoasă 🤗🤗🙏🙏

praying for you guys as Ian eyes up Florida! I am not sure if this effects your area or not?

[@julieluckey3559]

I have the EMR meal planner, the baked oatmeal did you do a 4 serving in this video? Thanks!

[@wastingtimeya]

A great read for parents is Punished by Rewards by Alfie Kohn.

[@erikpj441]

Love this video! We tried to order the Seed probiotics through your link and it didn’t work

[@oliviablassingame9397]

Love your videos!!! 🎉 Are you guys going to be homeschooling?

[@lilalavendel3951]

Dear Erin and Dusty, will your printed book be also available in Germany? It would be a big wish to get this book from you!

[@judycummings298]

Hello guys- nice video, always good to hear what your up to! Curious why you workout with weights in your bare feet? I have never seen this before. I do Essentrics in my bare feet but not heavy weights, seems like it would be hard to stabilize your body w/o shoes🤷‍♀️

[@Goodandevil2512]

hi Erin, is your pool chlorine ? or Celtic salt, mineral?

[@lisawaddington9880]

While breastfeeding your littles, be sure to at the very least, put your device on airplane mode and turn off Bluetooth to reduce exposing them to EMFs.

[@allison9995]

Soo...other than KZbin, what do you do for work? How do you make enough money to hire a babysitter and be a stay at home mom?

[@EatMoveRest]

We are full-time with EatMoveRest! I am working while at home and so is Dusty!

[@StephanieMT]

My youngest stopped breastfeeding the week of her 4th birthday so its been only a short time since she stopped

What is the name of the devotional app? X

[@Dutchessofcyber]

EMR homes??? Are there any videos on this? I was just going to ask...how do you keep your house clean? 🙏

[@EatMoveRest]

Yes we did share a bit about EatMoveRest Homes in our home tour video, and we've mentioned a few times in passing. We will definitely share more in a future video. In the meantime, go to EatMoveRestHomes.com and we will email you back with more info if you submit your email there! :)

[@mariaduroska1062]

That was so helpful ☺️. I hope my son will cooperate. Cross fingers 😉. Thank you and have a nice day.

[@EatMoveRest]

Best of luck! Thanks for watching!

[@janamiller2679]

I personally don't think I agree with the chart. I feel like it tells kids they have to eat to be good which can so lead to overeating so they can get a star. kids are so good at listening to their bodies or not voice their complaints or they are not good.

[@patty5266]

Have your son trace his name with his finger until he learns how to hold a pencil properly. You could try crayon tracing too. (I’m a certified teacher 😊.)

[@christianmommaofone9184]

By chance can you collab with Amy maryon? She her husband and 10 children do alot of the same things you guys do.

[@EatMoveRest]

We will look her up!
