I had 4 children and stayed at home(my husband worked out of town for 3 weeks at a time). My motto was "we all clean then we all play". We had chores for each day on the fridge and they knew they had to be completed before we did anything else. I also washed at least one of load of clothes a day. Sometimes it was hard with the all the activities, but we made it work.

[@Klaudyacampos]

YES 🙌🏼 I’m a mom of just two and I feel like a mess because I have the kiddos all day long and I work from home as well as homeschool but it can be done! Get the kids involved and everything is so much better. We also as moms gotta lower or tidiness expectations lol it’s just not realistic to have a magazine worthy home 24/7 😅

[@dorispoloko3904]

Hi Abby,I love your realistic videos. Your house is lived in with 4 kids. My Mom had 4 kids too and had chores for us too,teaches your children responsibility. I had 1 child who is now an adult. Time goes by so quickly. My little nieces come over to visit but love to help me clean and cook. I’m enjoying them now. Take care 😊

[@Lp2074]

So nice to see a day in the life video. I missed them!

[@tammyfields1236]

I had that same washer and dryer set … the washer was total crap and the dryer is still going we have had to get a new element twice … so you might want to get you a new element … we got ours from home depot online it was like $30 ..

[@stephaniem.5924]

I love these vidoes, they're so realistic! My house has been complete chaos lately. So i can relate so much! Especially w having family in town my space is getting out of control and I definitely feel over stimulated because i too like having my space mostly under control. We recently purchased a front loader and I completely understand where you are coming from. I miss having an agitator, much much better!!Thanks for sharing Abby!!

[@brittanykeith9561]

Okay jealous of STIR! That looks so cute and fun! Sooo many fun looking drinks 🙌🏽

[@Livetolove3]

I loved this day in the life video…haven’t seen one in a while. Love watching your videos Abby!

[@kayyy2788]

such a relatable video abby! thanks for sharing! more of these videos pleaseeee!

[@taraschmidheini4674]

Hello Beautiful ‼️ Did you get your dryer fixed? If Hubby is handy, it's an easy fix, heat element usually. We ordered one for ours years ago & boy, is it efficient now! I also use 3-4 wool dryer balls. There's wonderful videos on KZbin, showing people fixing all sorts of things.

[@mullins809]

We have had 2 different speed queen washer and dyer and actually do not recommend did not like either set - go with Maytag so much better!

[@annjohnson543]

Abby, I couldn't agree more about the front load washer and dryers. UGH. We got rid of ours and bought new a new top load set. No matter what I did the laundry room smelled musty and mildew like. After every load I would run a cloth with bleach on it around the gasket. Nothing worked. I'd never have another set like that again.

[@YvetteDelport-dq8tu]

I usually wait till they are a bit more ripe to freeze they are sweeter. Also when freezing, I literally just peel them and throw them in a ziplock and I grab into the bag and snap of about 1/3 of a banana for the smoothie or you can pull out a few for banana bread. Slicing it small will take a long time. If I see a banana, blueberries, strawberries, pineapple basically anything that’s about to go bad I just throw it in the freezer in the container it’s in and it’s perfect in smoothies. But love the dessert ideas with the chocolate.

[@darabowen8077]

Abby, I have the same washer and dryer, front loaders and I agree 💯 that they are VERY hard to keep clean. I felt rich when I bought them. 😢 I live in a mobile home and the stackable space saver is great.... for that. They are 7 years old and have had not one issue with them ...except the smelly washer/ mold problem. I would go back to a top loader if I could. Great video as usual! Love tou and your family! ❤

[@heatherjohnson2511]

We needed a washer and dryer REALLY REALLY BAD.... several years ago, our washer wouldn't spin anymore, the dryer just quit all together.... I started having to wring out all my laundry by hand, then hang it outside..... it was late fall I loved my clothes line truthfully, but where we live now we're not allowed to have one.... long story short we did rent to own, paid them off early, and have been extremely happy with both our washer & dryer, the washer has no agitator, it's just a big barrel, they are red as somehow no one wanted red, so they were cheaper, I love them though!! As far as your bananas, if you freeze them and then blend them they have a great consistency, and taste just.like ice cream!!❤❤❤

[@kaddigruener3615]

This is the most related thing I’ve seen all summer. This may be something you tried but my dryer was doing the same and not getting hot anymore. We found a clog in our vent tube. We used a leaf blower made a huge mess but it’s works again.

[@beckyatkinson7283]

Van eating cat food 🤣🤣 Real life right there!

[@laurameyer6681]

You just have that natural beauty 😍 makeup or no makeup, you are so beautiful! Loved the video 😁

[@alenasanderlin7539]

We got a speed queen washer a few months ago! It is the best! The clothes come out so clean! They are pricier, but definitely worth it!

[@salliwallace7962]

You are just so realistic and I love these kind of videos, as they make me feel normal that I do not live in a showcase home that is always tidy and immaculately clean. Reality is, that only a few lucky people have an immaculate homes 24/7, and probably because they have full time help. I appreciate your honesty.

[@PenelopePeppers]

Got my Favorite shirt on towards the end👍 Where's Louie---Haven't seen him in a while🤔

[@heatherfranklin8509]

Omg! Your human! Abby I very been a Mom of 4 for thirty years and you know you remind so much of myself 20 years ago give your self a break you are way to hard on yourself! Love the videos God bless you and your family ❤❤❤

[@kristins2078]

Hey we have a Samsung dryer and same thing and it’s a heat element and if your hubby is handy - it’s an easy fix and get on Amazon and my husband has done ours twice now. Cause I keep saying no i don’t want to buy a new set yet to haha. Ours is so old to but it will keep going till we can’t get it to ;) momma of 5 and totally relate to this video but now I’m trying harder to not hate it all and keep telling myself to find the joy in all that cause all mine are growing up and graduating and no more none of that and man my momma heart aches. Our youngest just turned 9. He’s the last baby. And the other one left she is about to be 16. 💝

[@merediths9667]

Ok so how hilarious that you went to stir. We literally just passed by there last week on the way home from the coast and I was wondering if that place was any good. 😊

[@carleerae521]

Check your dryer vent for clogs. I thought it was my dryer going out...spent $500 on a new dryer...turns out it was the dryer vent clogged up. My dryer vent went up and out through the roof so it was really jammed up (also cost me $$) . I definitely wanted a SpeedQueen after having LG frontloaders on pedal stools. I thought I was getting new amazing things and so happy they matched for once....didn't like them for the same reasons you mentioned.

[@katiemcevoy]

We have 4 kiddos too and love Sam's for bulk items! Our gas in PA is like $3.75 even at Sam's!!!! I hate getting gas. We went to NC to the beach recently and filled up because it was way cheaper like yours. ❤

[@belindacrump8567]

Do you have to pay for your kids to eat lunch or breakfast at school? In Australia we have nothing like that it’s packed lunches only and breakfasts you eat at home

[@teresabaechtold236]

Sure have missed seeing you and your videos! Hope that you and your family are well!😁

[@mlhenry4]

When you were making your bed, was that a gap filler pillow you have? I’ve been thinking about getting one!

[@PenelopePeppers]

Don't you mean "Overwhelmed" ???

[@tamaradiehl1571]

Buy a whirlpool or LG. Speed queen quality is not the same as it used to be. Good luck with buying one when you decide.

[@LisaEdgeman]

Ur such a good Lil Momma ❤ Ur kid's R adorable. Can't wait 4 more recipes

[@kassandrahenrikson2118]

My son has a few days left of school before he is home with me all summer and I’m already feeling dsyregulated about it. Such a relatable vid Abby!

[@lindseyrhynes4072]

Wow! You start summer late! LOL My boys got out on May 22nd, but they go back August 5th

[@kassandrahenrikson2118]

@@lindseyrhynes4072 are you in the states? I’m in Canada and this is pretty typical for us here. Especially where I live it really doesn’t get hot until end of June so it’s nice the 2 hottest months off

[@kaylafaheyahrndt]

I feel seen! Almost 6 year old, 2.5 years old, and newborn. 😅 no daycare next week for the holiday and random kids sick. 😬 I’m on maternity leave and it feels nothing like when I was home on Mat leave with just one babe. lol 😆 deep breaths

[@meld925]

We have speed queens! Highly recommend. They are more pricey but well worth it. And the bananas….that was funny.

[@natalielong7804]

Hi! I’m a recent subscriber and I’ve loved your vlogs so far. What do you do as a job from home? x

[@jenburns6265]

Omg, Socks is so cute ❤

[@sarasounds2389]

My house is a disaster as well. 😂

[@pamelaking4414]

I suggest a routine sheet for kids on fridge! A basket for each kid put clothes in when come out dryer and have them fold or not and put just In draws there self ! Sending love! Put door handle locks little van can’t get in when closed

[@cassiemoore6892]

Thank you for sharing your life being lived. I appreciate you showing your reality and being genuine about it. Where is your grey high neck tank from?

[@cassiemoore6892]

Also like the length of the skirt. Super cute outfit.

[@aprilinalabama9074]

It's hard to keep a house clean in the Summer with children everywhere 😁

[@LeaveItBetter-CaitlynR]

Can I ask how you found your cleaning lady? I clean houses and am looking for more but I don’t use social media and am unsure how I should fine more houses.

[@stephaniem.5924]

Word of mouth helps a lot. I started out with people I knew and grew from there. I don't have social media either but grew cliental quickly by word of mouth. Get cards made start off with a smaller count and hand them out is another way.

[@LeaveItBetter-CaitlynR]

@@stephaniem.5924 thank you!

[@stephaniem.5924]

​@@LeaveItBetter-CaitlynRYou're so welcome!

[@AndreaandCassieMusic]

This was sooo relateable!

[@quirkydrivenlife]

I don’t have 4 kids & mine is a mess 😂

[@PenelopePeppers]

Sounds like the thermostat and/or clogged vent on dryers. Your best bet is to get brand new machines that you prefer. Speed Queen is very expensive unless you own a Laundromat !!! Your best bet is GE or Whirlpool ( which GE owns Whirlpool)

[@brendahowell5946]

😢 sometimes I don’t think I make it. Make a chore chart and make the kids help

[@crystaldon4995]

My son is 20 with autism. Please pray for him. Two huge meltdowns today and I'm beyond exhausted. We call him Mr. E

[@meganscot5562]

Van eating the cat food 😂

[@carriesessum2505]

I am 50 grandma of 5 , 2 we adopted and I care for the other 3 weekdays 6:30-5 . Aging from 7 to 2 yrs old. It’s tough keeping up with them and household responsibilities! I for sure don’t have things figured out but a couple things I do are .. have an hour of down time to other a nap for the little ones and the bigger ones watch a movie or get tablets for a little while. Music is helpful just instrumental music and it sets a calm in my home . That’s just a little bit. What works for me may not work for you 🙏🏼

[@mariarichards1462]

Hello from northern California! Our gas is $4.93/gallon. It's killing me! I would love $3 gas lol

[@riograndelily8344]

Do your children have a chore chart? I had my babies learn how to wash thier own clothes very young, that included folding and putting away. Dishes at age 5 ( with me there of course). Babies need to learn they are part of a team and as a team we all have a vital part. Your a beautiful hard working mama and every one needs to have at least two chores a day. Blessings.

[@georgiaedwards9423]

I would sale that washer and dryer. Bite the bullet and get what you want. It will save you so much time and stress! ☹️

[@shartman2150]

I absolutely loved my Speed queen washer and dryer. I was so sad when we had to leave it at our old house. We have a Samsung top loader that came with our house and it’s fine but I keep waiting for it to break. It’s probably at least 6 years old.

[@cathyfeigert5660]

I have a Speed Queen washer and dryer. Love them!!! They are 14 years old, and the only thing we’ve had to do is replace the agitator once and replace a part on the dryer a few months ago. Well worth the money.

[@heathercraig7217]

Abby, I can relate with you. It seems like everywhere I turn in my house there's Something that doesn't belong, or it's a mess. We as mom's definitely have to commit to making the kids pitch in and help out more

[@calliewhitley8224]

I love these vlogs!! Also can relate with the dryer situation. I currently have to run mine twice too to get the clothes dry 😂 thankful it works but it does take more time

[@dlrosa2449]

Hey!!! I had a question, now what your youngest is older do you put him with your older son? I am having my 4th child and I have the same order as you except my oldest just turned 9 and my baby boy will be born in late November or early December. I didn’t know how it would be to room them together when the baby is about one. Can you tell me what’s your experience?

[@HeyItsTaylorrr]

Abby our American girl clothes look the same way right now 😂 they need their own closet

[@somethingsaboutmary3134]

Thank you for showing us all the real stuff, I definitely am hard on myself about how out of whack my house is during the summer and to be honest just this whole season of life with a one year old. We are working on learning chores with my other two and it may be small things but it puts me in a better mood 😂 so it’s worth it for sure.

[@pamelaking4414]

I got notification like away yay

Gas is so cheap in TX compared to NY! I’m so jealous.

I love my speed queen washer! Highly recommend! It’s the best washes in 30 min and everything is super clean! Def worth the investment!

[@darabowen8077]

I just saw a vid on the Speed Queen Washer! They said they got rid of their HE washer and switched them out. Best decision ever!

[@almahernandez06]

I love how some moms are raising the caple kids

[@martialraptor_8398]

No sympathy for someone that says "I have a cleaning lady".

[@WCBergable]

Seriously I had four kids and stayed home with hubby traveling and working long Hours! No cleaning lady

[@lluviagarcia3529]

Regardless, she can still feel exhausted and tired. Being a stay at home mom of 4 is hard. ( I am of 3) Having a cleaning lady is such a blessing and it’s a lot of help. Plus Abby has pets and chickens! Don’t compare yourself. Everyone is walking their own path.
