[@apaperpeace7564]

The kids ARE going to care. They will love looking at them now and when they’re older. I am OLDER so I know. So glad I made them.

[@Snaphotsthroughtime]

I am a few years behind on my scrapbooks and my son asked me to catch up on them because he loves them.

[@alexismoore7854]

Please never stop making videos! They take my morning from "I don't want to do anything/I don't know where to start". But I start watching your videos and I get moving! I'll replay them in the back ground just to keep cleaning and going!

[@MrsAlmaTrumble]

Don’t bother over yesterday and don’t worry about tomorrow. Just enjoy this lovely Thursday. Wishing you a good day/ evening.

[@danidavis3716]

I’m always so impressed at how much you do in just one day!! You’re an inspiration! If my kids were still young, you would’ve been “the woman across the room” for me!! Plus you look phenomenal for having five kids!! I’ve been working on almost 100 lbs I gained with my oldest for 30 years!! Thank you for being an influencer on top of being a wife, mother, daughter, friend, sister, aunt, cousin, daughter in law, sister in law, hostess, and I’m sure there’s more titles!! You don’t ever need to apologize for having a lived in home!! There’s so much love, respect, laughter, etc within your home which is why there’s always coming over!! They enjoy you & your families company as well as an inspiration!!

[@tanyadutton4017]

My partner's sister gave him a scrapbook two years ago she had been working on since he graduated high school. He is 54. He loves it. Better late than never!

[@sammanthaaynes6430]

Me at my TV when you were showing the pictures of your babies: “OMG YOUR BABIES ARE ADORABLE 😭❤️” My husband: “well thank you, but theyre your kids too.”🤦🏻‍♀️

[@maraciobo]

I had surgery and now I'm watching you from the hospital bed. You help me reduce the pain.I would like to be able to move and clean, I can't wait to get back to strength

[@sammanthaaynes6430]

Wishing you a speedy recovery 🙏

[@maraciobo]

@@sammanthaaynes6430 oooo You are so cute for this

[@marywalker1394]

🙏🏾❤️

[@ButterflyCatcher72]

Honestly once my oldest turned 12 I stopped doing parties. Instead I have him pick 3-5 friends and he picks something way more special to do. Then we go out to dinner or lunch and I found they enjoy that SO MUCH MORE. One year he decided to do the escape rooms, one year it was to an amusement park, one year it was to the indoor skydiving, one year it was bowling, and one year it was sharkdiving (his 16th and most recent bday!) With that one I had him only pick 1 friend lol he also got his own car when he turned 16 so that was his huge thing for this year. My daughter is 10 and she has already said next year she doesn't want parties anymore but to do the same as we've been doing with our son. Zero pressure now! Love it

[@HillabillyHippie]

The Princess Bride!! It’s got all the clean family friendly good stuff you need in a movie! My fav!!

[@danielleallred9625]

It does have a few swear words, and a bit of violence near the end. But I agree. A classic!

[@bettywurm306]

My go-to movie with children of several ages is an older Disney movie called Flight of the Navigator. Some of my grown nephews still recite parts when we are together. I recall some name-calling, but don’t remember actual swear words. And so funny the kids were looking for brownies Saturday morning. 😂

[@cmak1212]

My teens really love the Shutterfly scrapbooks I made them years ago. It's worth your time.

[@heatherholt4275]

Movie suggestions: Space Camp, Adventures in Babysitting, The Goonies, Karate Kid. Edited to add a few more: The Princess Bride, The Wizard of Oz, Little Monsters 🍿

[@samanthagonzalez9664]

As a 27 year old, I enjoy looking back at pictures from when I was a young kid.

[@sammanthaaynes6430]

28 and I love looking back on my shenanigans with my own kids now. It helps me remember that once I was in their shoes too, helps lighten me up a bit ❤

[@ellennewth6305]

Your videos always brighten my day, Kim! Love all the fabulous things you and Alex do for your kids from movie night to the fully stocked snack drawer to Elenore's new Tumble Track. I'm impressed that you're finishing those scrapbooks. Here's hoping Mama Bird and her eggs are OK!

[@shirleyyeno]

I’m 75 and watching u makes me feel exhausted. Buy don’t stop being u. U make my day when I see ur videos. Love u all.

[@crawleyr4919]

More exhausing than the news?! 😅

[@kyliemcleod]

Hey Kim, You made my day by posting. I am feeling rough! Watching you as I fall asleep xx

[@Notable2Nikki]

I am 15 years behind on my scrapbooking... except Disney! I did a whole book when we went to Disney.

[@kittykooky]

You look absolutely fabulous for a Mother of 5. ❤💐

[@junesammy-robidoux2305]

Kim I have to say it again I love your intro music, it always melts away the worry. I'm transported into a time when life was so much easier then I get to hang out with my friend who is just as big of a mess and slightly unhinged like I am, it makes a girl feel good and scene. Thank you for being you and being a friend. ❤🎉

[@lisagrafton2529]

I keep my patriotic decor out from Memorial Day through Labor Day!

[@dubsgarcia]

Movie suggestion: The Iron Giant. That is a 90s classic! 10/10 chef's kiss 👌

[@cordellcaleb12]

Omg glad I just say this that was one of my kids favorites definitely going to watch it with my grandson. Thank you for the reminder ❤

[@debrajarnagin7101]

I made each of my kids a scrap book when they graduated. They loved it

[@ednarose86]

I honestly thought that the second picture you showed WAS Wolfgang!!!!! I thought you saying like, oh here's Meredith, now look at Wolfgang. Are you kidding????? But no, that's certainly Meredith (proof is the backsplash lol!) DO THE SCRAPBOOKS and don't feel guilty about it!!!! I've always loved looking at photos and now that my parents are gone, I appreciate them even more. Meredith saying "Where are the brownies?" ....... She is her mother's child lol!!

[@janelledupuis-]

I definitely need some motivation before going camping this weekend to get my life in order! Happy summer Kim! Thanks for being everyone's motivation

[@lorithuenemann8867]

You will be glad you took the time to get your family memories out where your family can enjoy them! You get so much done in a day even with all the "mom" interruptions, that's just life with kiddos! Thanks for sharing and motivating us to get things done!

[@brianreiniger7371]

So together and open. Keep spreading that cheer😂❤

[@radhasircar8558]

I want to be just like you Kim! So enthusiastic and nice. Always remain your usual hard working and cheerful self. Loads of love ❤

[@carriechinn8104]

Me too!

[@llhughes1803]

Favorite moment…10:01…Kim is that YOU??? (sees bird nest out the window) Oh my gosh by the way…BEST as always! ❤️😂🤣😂❤️

[@liisbethmichelson2064]

You talking about your kids growing up, and here I was binging your old videos and now I saw Wolfgang sooo big and I was in awe, such a big boy! Last video I watched he was like 7months old babyboy😢❤❤

[@traceykillam1658]

Great a little bit of everything video. I always get do many ideas of things to do. Thankyou very much Kim.❤

[@planningtolive_thebestlife453]

I think a 70” entertainment console would be just fine in that movie room. It doesn’t have to take up the whole space to look great! Just center it and it’ll be intentional.

[@patjones5723]

I agree 👍

[@mylittleruralhomestead]

Just recently discovered your channel and I have to say how much I love your personality and how you remind of Sandra Bullock (meant as a compliment🥰) I love all things scrap booking, cooking, organizing, and hauls. I especially LOVE photos and my adult children will often ask me to send them photos, so yes photos are definitely a must.💞

[@Notable2Nikki]

Brownie sundaes are the top dessert in the universe. Perfection. That was what we always wanted for our birthdays growing up, not cake.

[@aimee2234]

Sorry so late... Life. Thank you for always bringing the happy! YOU are LOVED and APPRECIATED more than you will ever know, Kim! xoxo

[@heatherweiss5426]

We just watched George of the Jungle🦁🦍 with Brendan Frasier. Forgot how cute it was! Great for a family movie night!!🍿

[@silviagamez-marin3595]

The "Greatest Showman". Best family movie.

[@jamesonplaysyoutube8643]

Hi Kim. I'm just nursing my 1yo watching you. We have strep throat and I can't sleep bc I'm miserable. Thanks for the good video today. I needed to see a friend. Love the Lyons Family.

[@jamesonplaysyoutube8643]

We had a birdsnest on our porch. A baby fell out and passed. I came home and a turtle had it in his mouth. My deck is 6ft up and has only stairs. How the heck did a box turtle get up there?? Nature is wild. That's forsure.

[@judyp4221]

❤️❤️❤️ your videos!!! You have the cutest personality. You are the best Mom ever. You go out of your way to create MEMORIES for your children which is so endearing. They are lucky to have you. You are the second greatest Mom I know. ❤️❤️❤️

[@elaine2770]

Omg this is me just watching today's vlog and I've came to the part that you show the present you got Eleanor, I just bought my 8 year old granddaughter this and I bought her the Gymnastics Bar for her birthday, i can't wait to give her them I know she'll love them ❤

[@joan3435]

I love the coastal blue and have an artificial tree on each end to take up the additional wall space.

[@kerimurphy4240]

Hi Kim and family, from Pennsylvania. 😊 Thank you for your hard work 💜

[@leewaggoner3037]

Your kids will appreciate those photo albums so much when they are older!

[@lizlove8772]

I totally obsess over photo books too! I'm currently in the middle of trying to get my boys books done. I make them one every year and one for my mom and in-laws with all three boys. It's a process but they love them.

[@melaniemassengill1419]

If you buy the little plastic containers with lids ( jello shot size) you can individually portion the popcorn seasoning for the littles ❤❤❤

[@thriftgirlshopper]

I’ve been four years behind on my scrapbooks- including my wedding! You’ve inspired me to get started on 2020!

[@crueltyfreeraven]

I'm never this early! My relaxation time is watching you

[@josiee4657]

Every house needs a good mom clean when you have kids!❤

[@wingingitsemiretiredlife2981]

Hey Kim. When looking for pineapple at the store look for yellowish the yellow means it's riper and sweeter. Oh and I saw a brownie hack. Grease a mini muffin pan to make brownie bites. Bake 10- 15mins @ 350*. It's like you get the end piece every time.

[@SarahAnew]

The water bottle tirade at 16:39 is incredibly relatable. “Where’s the matching straw? Where’s the lid?…and then my hair falls out.” Yep.

[@nadinekore6308]

The sauces looks Delicious! Meredith gets it, Why would you not make brownies when you have ALL the toppings! I can already imagine my serving with White Chocolate sauce and the funfettis? Aw! Delish!

[@pamelar4377]

"Robots" 2005 animated film! We LOVE this one! Super cute, great cast, and so funny..you guys will love it.

[@Boringmama6]

We had water bottle issues at our house too with 6 kids. I threw them all away bc I was tired of dealing with 100 bottles and straws, etc too. Each kid got a yeti. The ones with the chug caps. They each have their names on them done with a cricut and they only get water (or LMNT) in them. They each are responsible for their own water bottle and it has worked fabulous for us for the last 3 years. Good luck!! 😅

[@larisaschreiber3146]

You are such a great mom! You do so many special things for your kids! Movie night...Splash 🧜🏼‍♀️!! Not sure if it's streaming anywhere but I LOVE that movie! It never gets old!!

[@justusewater1]

I need to put scrapbooking on my to do list too. I am 3-4 years behind too.

[@grammytammy3535]

You are absolutely correct on the modifications in YMCA classes!! Glad you love your Y!!!

[@pamanderson5841]

Summertime fun with Kimberly !!! My day is starting off......❤

[@memphis2375]

Always love hanging out with you Kim! I love the idea of an ice cream bar!! 💙🩵

[@aprilinalabama9074]

You have adorable children ❤... I can't wait for grandchildren ❤

[@pauleengould998]

Coastal blue console downstairs xxx it’s absolutely beautiful ❤. Put the dark blue one upstairs it won’t matter if there is a space either side 😊

[@traceyrommel1847]

Happy Thursday! Watching you while I’m my at the gym. You are doing great at the gym. Don’t worry your core will get stronger. ❤❤❤

[@SarahAnew]

Movies I loved as a kid: Parent Trap (from the 1960s), That Darn Cat (Haley Mills fan over here), The Boy Who Could Fly, Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken, Sweet 15, … then it was the 90s rom coms or dramas like Sleepless in Seattle, French Kiss (a completely underrated Meg Ryan movie), Far and Away (might have to fast forward a couple of scenes), only You, ooh and a myriad of late 90s fun ones like Clueless or Romy & Michelle’s High School Reunion.

[@psymompa]

Sandlot is a fav.❤

[@lgibson0515]

Sooo happy you got time to workout, and made time to do something you enjoy!! (Catching up on scrapbooks) 🎉❤🎉❤ . Cant wait til i can catch up on some long overdue "projects"!!😮😢😊 Always love a good tidy/restock!!😂❤😊 hope your having a great week 😊

[@ShanYalesTale]

Another great video to put happy in our day. ❤

[@missgreece91]

Oh wow i was completely shocked! Meredith is as skilled as her older sister Eleanor. Meredith will soon do acrobat and gymnastics as well ❤

[@Lovemeso.]

Flushed away. Is a movie our kids really enjoy

[@Hey_Ruthie]

I love musicals, haha. My whole family (siblings) enjoy Seven Brides for Seven Brothers!

[@TheRustyTrike]

My in-laws came for a visit and brought 4 huge scrapbooks of my husband’s life. My mother-in-law has spent the last year since they’ve visited scrapbooking everything that has ever happened to him EVER. So what I’m saying is…you can catch up on the scrapbooking in retirement. 😂😂

[@pamelathornton70]

Never Ending Story

[@sharon_rn2066]

Mama Mia is a great movie full of awesome ABBA music! 🎉 There are some more adult under currents but kids just notice the fun stuff. 😻

[@shereemorgan1430]

I love the updated ice cream scoop! Have a great weekend Kim😊!

[@pauleengould998]

All my kids gradually grew out of big birthday parties. I did think they would go on forever but they came to an end before I was prepared. They wanted a family dinner and an outing with a few special friends 🎉❤🎉❤

[@TracyShead-Stamey]

That what mine did. It was about the ages of 13-15. My son lasted the longest. My girls were 13 and decided they just wanted their closest friends, and they wanted it to be a sleepover with movies. I was mixed on feelings about it. I was a bit sad because they were growing up, but I happy too because it was cheaper and less chaotic. Girl parties always seemed more difficult than boy parties. Now, this was the 90s and early 2000s. Thankfully, keeping up with the Jonses wasn't a thing in our little town. Internet didn't have control yet. The one thing I will say is just enjoy things because with a snap of the fingers, they are moving 3000 miles away and starting families of their own. Take care, everyone.

[@shoppingwithmichelle9077]

I have been scrapbooking booking with creative memories for years. I made a scrapbook for the oldest one. The other two I am up to 3rd grade. I am sorting through pictures for each one. I have report cards and awards too. I did a first year one for each child. A wedding book from shutterfly. 3 kids takes some time.

[@pixiedustmama3]

MOVIE NIGHT : Eloise at the plaza, Eloise at Christmastime,The Sandlot, Unaccompanied minors. Those are a few that come to mind ❤️🧚‍♀️

[@SharaLee60]

Hi Kim, I'm sure your kids will love your scrapbooking albums. Though I prefer the physical ones where I can get my hands in glue & ink etc. I just love that. I've made my kids' small birthday albums & they love those! I also made one for my husband too! He thinks it neat. I made extra pages so I can go back in it for each year & put the new ones' pics & some writing in. He's a character! I put pics of him acting like Groucho Marks! You're probably too young to know who he is! He was a comedian! He's good at it! Well, you did great on your digital scrapbooking albums! Your dinner looks good too! I've made something similar to it. I most always put onion & garlic in my hamburger & other things too. Thanks for sharing! ♥️☺️🫂🦋🍄🧶🧵🪡📓✏️🐾✨️

[@CookingwithCatLover0330]

Chitty-Chitty Bang Bang! That's the movie to watch. Or Bed knobs and Broomsticks!

[@mlmm47]

I wish i could order Kiwico for my grandchildren again But 2 or 3x after my first order they tried charging me over $400 on my cc for orders I never placed it was huge disappointment and I will never order again. Love your beautiful family Kim ❤ sorry to be a negative nancy but just had to tell ya about kiwico

[@luvangelmyers2731]

❤️”Home Alone” and “Polar”!! Christmas in July!🎉🎄🎅🏽

[@courtneycarson412]

I need universal yum to sponsor you! That would be so fun to watch, everyone trying different snacks from around the world. We have a shutterfly book and I don't think my 4 year old realizes that I designed the book, he just thinks it's a book about him and it's so cute! I'm also 2 years behind on printing my pictures, I do photo albums and we are filling up #6 with 1000 slots.

[@nikkioverkamp]

Yayy for scrapbooks!! Your kids will appreciate it! ❤

[@hollymcnamara9993]

I'm 8 weeks pregnant, my grandad is in hospice and I've a 4 year old and 2 year old. My house is completely upside-down and can't remember the last proper meal I cooked. I'll get there 😅😅 thanks for the inspiration, Kim

[@rebeccabaker572]

I always enjoy your videos and the time you take to show them thanks my friend

[@klmjtr]

L🩵VE the blue console!!! Get it! You’ll never see that color again! 🩵🩵🩵🩵🩵

[@lindseyheilman511]

Hi! I'm a traditional scrapbooker and I ask myself that all the time...who cares about what I've created. Well you know what, it brings me joy in the moment, who cares what happens after I'm gone! If it makes you happy - do it!

[@taylortrione6913]

My girls 9 and 4 love “Parent Trap” with LL. Love that one and then the Trolls movies and Sandlot!

[@rhongib]

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Greatest Showman, Bedknobs and Broomsticks

[@afo21258]

My 8 yo granddaughter does gymnastics, and she has the mat and a bar at home. That's awesome.

[@maeganb7288]

You could get all the same color water bottles too!! That ice cream scooper looks epic!!

[@marinemom5630]

Great video. I love older disney movies. Swiss Family Robinson is a great one. Meet the Robinsons, Indian in the Cupboard, Homeward Bound, Bedtime Story, Robots, Nanee McPhee 1 and 2 and Dolphin Tales.

[@tammiehoyt3191]

Sand lot for movie night. I just love you. You always make me smile!😊

[@LindzeeSimpson]

Love the cute ice cream bar for dessert and you are right brownies with the toppings is a great idea!

[@franceskloos1297]

Thanks for another great video always fun hanging out with you!!

[@maryscavone5622]

Kim you are such a wonderful Momma. One day the children will remember all the things you do for them. Including the movie night, snacks, party's! Hey, have you ever thought about getting a " dumb waiter" to help you get things down to the first floor? That looked like a heavy cast iron you were carrying. 😅😂❤

[@kellycrowl1500]

Every video is worth watching, Kim! TFS!❤

[@jodyk.woller5485]

Movie night: Greatest Showman! That tumble track might fit perfect in the new addition hallway! 🤣

[@barbarapeterson8030]

Hey Kim, family, and chickens. Love the Jumpsuit. STTB📜📜📜📜📜

[@roxannebudd1978]

I loved that blue cabinet from Costco, but have no place to put it. 😂❤

[@janicerepass6996]

Saw the blue console at Costco and it's gorgeous!! Absolutely beautiful!

[@lindamartin7580]

Kim, you make the rest of us feel lazy. You get more done in one day than most get done in a week! The Shutterfly books will be used and mean more as the years progress. There’s something to be said about having tangible results. Supper looks awesome. No skill involved at all! I heard that somewhere! Haha! It’s one of my ‘Kimisms’! 🥰🥰🥰

[@kristysegler22]

I’d suggest ‘Between the Lions’ or ‘Where the red fern grows’… True Family Classics but the first is a real hoot 😂
