Tummy Time With Jackson, Cooking Dinner & Baby Pics! | Home Vlog

[@janedal7291]

As soon as you said “I was able to wash my hair today” you officially are in the mom club lol

[@TheRealSmithFamily]

“Remember when we used to do a lot of stuff?” Yep, you’re parents! Sorry, I thought that funny. We’re parents too and that was one of the hardest things to get used to.

[@denisemarle4141]

This also sounds like me and I only have dogs!

[@kaspertillae6893]

This is one huge reason I’m childfree. I’m leaving parenting to the more qualified and deserving 💙

[@TheRealSmithFamily]

Kasper Tillae No shame in that! It’s not for everyone.

[@bpore]

Even in like a YEAR or whenever you're done breastfeeding I still want to see "Jen's day at the Parks" and see what you would do!

[@elysetomlinson6959]

I’m studying to be a teacher and I’m learning a lot about early childhood. Watching Jackson’s developmental progression is so fascinating and has helped my learning so much. It’s also so interesting to watch you guys as parents grow just as much as Jackson. Such a beautiful family ❤️

[@catherinelorene9914]

baby care center if you really wanna go to the parks alone! they have a whole nursing room with rocking chairs and you could definitely pump there :)

[@tohopeandhappiness]

@@KATHYMIKE6870 You can not leave children at baby care. It's just a space for parents to use. There are no child care services in that area. There is a room to pump or nurse, a room with chairs and tables for kids/parents to color and watch Disney movies which is intended for children who are overwhelmed by the parks, a small shop with baby necessities like diapers and Pedialyte, a changing area and a restroom. Someone staffs the shop but again, at no point can you leave children there. Lost children are brought there while waiting to reunite with parents. :)

[@catherinelorene9914]

thedisneylady yeah exactly! I never said it was childcare just a good place to pump :)

[@mindyschocolate]

Michael Schroeder lmao, you clearly don’t get it. She can go to the parks, SOLO as discussed in their vlog. She can enter the Baby Care Center and pump to her heart’s content. She can store her bottles in the fridge and take them when she leaves the park. Should she take the baby there, one day, then she can make use of the changing tables if he needs a fresh diaper. What exactly do you not understand? And so what if they tease the baby and call him grumpy? It’s in good fun. Some babies straight up look like little potato heads. I do it all the time. I think you’re trying to be a troll.

[@butnotLike2nite]

baby care centers are the best! my favorite place to change diapers and now that my daughter is potty trained its her favorite spot to potty. kid sized potties for the win!

[@chade.7948]

catherine lorene absolutely. We had 4 kids, we took them all to Disney, and we nursed them and changed them in the baby centers. They’re really nice.

[@jackieg6813]

Aw Jen and Tim look so much happier since Jackson was born I love you guys. You make me cry with tears of joy.

[@sherrystrawn7628]

My favorite vlogs are HOME vlogs. Love watching baby Jackson. 💖

[@raspberry129]

You guys are so cute as parents! You are showing us a different kind of happy that is just so enjoyable to watch. Thanks for sharing!

[@jesshavinfun3547]

I’m just overwhelmed with happiness watching your vlogs with Jackson!:)

[@hremaddox]

It brings tears to my eyes that you guys have a baby now! I'm so happy for you both!

[@user-xd6jg3sj5m]

I love these "we're tired vlogs", you guys are HILARIOUS! The rapport is so good between you two! Thank you for continuing to vlog :)

[@Davidoneill1967]

He's starting to fight the sleep, becoming more aware of his surroundings. He wants to learn now , not sleep. 😁

[@catherinelorene9914]

THESE ARE SO GOOD!!! literally tastes like little cookie dough balls NO-BAKE LACTATION BITES Ingredients 2 cups old-fashioned oats ½ cup ground or milled flaxseed 3 tablespoons brewer’s yeast 1 cup peanut butter or almond butter ½ cup honey 1 teaspoon vanilla ½ cup dark chocolate chips Instructions In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add all ingredients except for the chocolate chips. Mix on low speed until mixture is well combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Roll mixture into 2-tablespoon sized smooth balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or enjoy right away. Once the bites have set, transfer them to an air-tight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

[@Becuziamawesome]

The B-Roll of Baby Jen photos was PRECIOUS. Also Jackson is totally a thorough mix of both of his parents features👌

[@mrfortlauderdale]

Jackson is like “Who are these people?” 😂

[@user-qp4qi1of7n]

Love your vlogs. You guys are so humble and kind, it’s very refreshing to have found such amazing youtubers.

[@catinedington5411]

You could use this as an opportunity to see what's available for new breastfeeding mom's at the parks and vlog about that!!!! You are doing so great!!!

[@KellyBurklund]

“But remember when we used to do LOTS of stuff?” -Jenn

[@Shareul]

Haha. Welcome to parenthood, Jenn 😄

[@marenglad9786]

Get an Instapot!! You have use your slow cooker meal but it will be ready within the hour!! The best parent hack ever!

[@bamalamsue8720]

Maren Glad absolutely agree! Full on meals in no time. I love that I can use it when I forget to thaw meat. 😆

[@ladywithone]

Yessss! The instant pot is life changer, took me a few years to get on board but now that I have one I don’t know how I did without one. It’s a must for every parent. You can slow cook in it also but if you forget to get things going early enough you can just pressure cook and dinner is done in 10-60 min depending on the meat type and if it’s thawed or frozen.

[@milliehubbard8423]

Yes, an Instant Pot will change your life!! Stew in 45 minutes, delicious and tender!! Plus you can do a LOT of other things with it.

[@patingram4138]

Yes! I can't live without mine!

[@jenniferculp1643]

Agree with the Instant Pot!

[@CarolinaYankee]

Nobody can prepare you for how much your life changes overnight when you have a baby! My first baby is expecting a little one in May, our first grand baby. I’ve recommended your vlogs to her so she can get a sense as to what to expect. Watching brings back so many memories for me. My “older woman” advice is not to take any particular advice too seriously. I find that the baby dictates how and what you do and you just have to go with it. Once they settle into a decent nap schedule you’ll get some of your life back. You guys are doing a terrific job!

[@chrissyceravolo6664]

I enjoyed this home vlog! Felt like a "hang out"! Love the giggles between you 2!!

[@brittanymcguff]

Friendly advice from a mother of 5: the first couple of weeks having a baby is basically being available at there every whim but this can't last forever. Set a sleep schedule. Still with understanding it won't be perfect at first. If you need him to sleep put him down at that time everyday. At first they may not sleep which is ok but eventually it will happen. You will find that he will start to fall asleep on his own at the same time. Sleep begets sleep. Good napping means good nights. I am loving watching yall with your baby boy. Y'all are doing a great job. ❤

[@carolkoniecki]

Jenn, Go! There are lots of places to take care of pumping at the parks. Call and ask or check the 'mom's panel'. Go!

[@evercuriousmichelle]

I am in the midst of a super busy season at work and so I feel like I can never get work out of my head and I'm living and breathing work. Your home vlogs are so soothing for me. They remind me that the world is more than just my work stress and your chill, go with the flow energy is so grounding for me. Thank you!

[@lisaboisjoli3623]

“Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Baby” is a fantastic book for helping getting baby into a good sleeping routine. My daughter stopped napping around 3 to 4 months and after doing the routines in the book, she became a great napper. Good luck!!

[@juliajones2283]

Just love seeing Tim and Jenn as parents to Jackson, its wonderful.x

[@kellyparker1444]

Totally hadn’t even noticed the incorrect title. You’re both doing fantastic x

[@Vern0811]

You two are so adorable together! I absolutely loved this video. Thank you again for sharing.

[@clairehernandez9957]

You got mama brain jenn! It gets the best of us! Don’t worry!! Love your vlogs!

[@carriegruber6854]

I started rewatching your cruise videos from a year ago since I'm currently packing for our first DCL sailing next week. While watching your packing video, when Tim was showing off his backup outfit for Day 3, Jenn says "You look like a dad" and my heart melted because little did you know he was going to be a dad soon. Just thought it was a neat moment 🤗 You guys are such a cute family!

[@spikerdoddles]

The thing is, Smarties have milk chocolate centers while M&Ms have semi-sweet chocolate. It's all comes down to what kind of chocolate you prefer.

[@helenainscough8235]

I just absolutely love these home blogs, you are just the most wonderful parents trying your very very best and just loving Jackson and each other with your whole Hearts. It’s just so lovely. Xx

"I need to put my leg up, my arm is hurting." -Tim Tracker 2020

[@Dani-si8wv]

Lol that was funny

[@leny9047]

I'm sure it's been said already, but the baby care centers are amazing and not only do they allow you to pump at Disney, but you would love getting the chance to use them since they're so nice to relax in. Dollywood has them too and they're adorably decked out with super comfy rocking chairs

[@ashleybell1429]

Diaper bag suggestion: Jujubee. They’re washable, don’t stain and have a thought out layout. The pockets just make sense. Anyway...👍🏻.

[@KcBallerina1982]

Allyson Davis yes! I have a back up bag in the car with all the essentials. As a baby shower gift a friend gave both my husband and a emergency baby bag filled with everything you could possibly need to leave in our car. In every size for the first year! CRAZY! It’s all in a back pack cooler so I can even throw something cold in there if really needed. That bag has been a life saver. Just a little of this and that. I then pack up for each day in my diaper bag. It’s nice to know there’s a back up stash INCASE we run out out of anything.

[@beckiethomas5739]

You're doing a great job.... Jackson is the center of your world like he should be. 🤗

[@armandohernandez6074]

Lol my son is 2 years old and I still don’t feel comfortable leaving him with anyone outside of my parents

[@maryloufarnsworth8461]

Try a play group. By the time your son is three he should be learning to socialize with other children.

[@vianjelos]

@@gissneric with how people are today, kids should be scared to be alone with their own parents...honestly its sad.

[@TravelGlobalVideos]

Washing your hear is totally a win Jen from what we have heard as a new mother!! Jen you are definitely looking more rested and you guys seem to be getting more comfortable as new parents. Has us excited about our little guy joining us in June!!

[@wencireone]

Jackson is a baby, he's got years before he looks like either of you, and people will give you a different opinion each time you ask. Loving home vlogs.👍

[@StarLuvr004]

I used a backpack diaper bag and i LOVED it. So much room, and it frees up your hands.

[@StarLuvr004]

Mothers milk tea is great!!

[@kentky95]

Tummy time was so cute. I love the Jackson vlogs.

[@eurydicespectrum]

I’ve never “met” a baby that enjoyed tummy time anywhere NEAR as much as Jackson seems to! 💕

[@aprilnasworthy4669]

Get a instant pot!! Doesn’t have to be that brand but it’s the best thing ever!! Much fast that slow cooker.

[@sassyladydeboer7103]

Agree...I was just going to suggest that. Instant pot would be so much easier for them to cook meals. And so many helpful videos for recipes.

[@alwynvorster3447]

Co-signed.

[@irenepierce167]

I was just about to suggest that also. I sent one to each of my kids last year and they said it was a game changer. However, you have to actually be willing to cook without using pre packaged meals. Tim & Jen seem to prefer those. Although, we have had the best ribs ever, using the insta pot. I am officially drooling. LOL

[@catstandish]

Air Fryer :)

[@lorrifrench4460]

Enjoyed your home Vlog . Love seeing little Jackson, and the baby picture comparisons. I think your both great parents. God Bless you both and Baby Tracker ❤️

[@danaq27]

Guys! You need an instant pot! It's amazing! You can make the slow-cooker type foods, but a lot faster :)

[@amberhorvath1010]

Ding Dang You are such a great Mom! Always do what you feel is right for your family. If you prefer spending quality time with your babes then do it! Never let anyone question what makes you feel good or where your energy goes. You are both great parents!

[@mamaminifox3303]

Hey to help calm Jackson swaddle him more. He is still adjusting to life and don't have control of his arms and legs.

[@lindaadams9007]

I think the two of you are doing great. Keep up the good work. You can really tell how much of your world revolves around Jackson. Coming from a mom of three it does get better.

[@chloe_reacts_to]

when Jenn said your doing great sweetie my heart dropped love you guys so much 🙂❤️😘😀👏

[@chelseytritt3311]

Hey yall! I just want to tell you two, yall are doing great at adjusting to having a baby! I literally cried when yall announced Jenn was pregnant after all these years of watching your videos! So congrats on baby Jackson, and enjoy these moments! Time sure does fly by when it comes to the little ones! I have 4 kiddos myself, and we all love watching your channel and getting updates on the happenings of Tim, Jenn and now Jackson Tracker! The first year with your first baby sometimes can be stressful and trying but yall are doing great working together to ensure each other gets sleep, showers, and whatnot. I promise, month by month, it gets easier!!Tim, you're such a great supporter of Mom during pregnancy, birth, and breast feedings! Guys really need to take notes at how attentive you are! Jenn, you're doing amazing juggling motherhood! PS pregnancy brain doesn't go away, it becomes Mom brain! Just embrace mispronouncing words, searching for the right word or calling things by the wrong name! And I love how much you are really researching and taking suggestions from your viewers! Yall are amazing parents and I'm so excited to watch your sweet boy grow up! 🤘🖤❤Chelsey, from Columbia, SC

[@melysaisabella]

Ok I am dead at Jen’s pics from when she was a kid! How gorgeous 😭 and only more gorgeous every year 💕

[@cherryfields1324]

Baby Jackson is so adorable ♥ Ya'll are great parents :D

[@arringtoncapehart1862]

When is the end "credit" video going to be updated to add a Jackson image?!

[@correllian44601]

When they have time to have it changed. They talk in every home vlog about how busy they are since Jackson was born.

[@green3y3dgirl]

Jackson’s lil noises in the background are so cute!

[@hellhound_haunt]

Ok, to be honest, I LOVE that "use it in a sentence" portion of the Toehead definition. I was laughing so hard when Jen read it.

[@rnydi7749]

Hellhound Haunt omg so was I! I found it hysterical 😭

[@hellhound_haunt]

@@rnydi7749 I did too! I was dying! I had to watch it literally 5 or 6 times to be completely satisfied with myself. It was great

[@vlk40]

You two are such cute parents! Jen you look great, love Tim’s haircut. And Jackson’s tummy time made my night- so adorable ❤️

[@karennahastings7344]

"Dishwater toe-head" is the name of Tim's new band lol

[@Charliefarley170287]

Exactly what I came here to say! I cried with laughter at the whole toe head thing! 😂

[@jessicaditmer8577]

After 3 kids and 11 years of parenting I own an instant pot and it is a game changer. I would have loved this thing when our babies were babies. It’s 4 o’clock and I forgot to put the meatloaf in the oven at 3 so we can be at ball by 5?? No problem!! It’ll be done in the instant pot in 25 minutes!! It also doubles as a crockpot and it makes hard boiled eggs, so I trashed two other appliances when I got it. So many different functions! I had 3 kids in diapers at one point(not for long thankfully)! If I had to do it all over I would get a backpack with lots of pockets. I never liked diaper bags because what I needed was ALWAYS at the bottom of the bag. Lol. Also, a good messenger bag with lots of pockets/dividers would be good as well. Love these home Vlogs and seeing you start to venture out with Jackson!! He’s precious and you guys are doing an awesome job!! EDITED TO ADD: Use gallon ziploc bags to help keep items separated- diapers and wipe case in one. Bibs and cloths in another. Changes of outfits in one. Bag with rash cream, Tylenol, gripe water, etc. Makes it easier to grab exactly what you need and if you squeeze the air out before you zip them it helps save space! I always had a drawer of pre packed zip bags in a drawer so it was easy to replenish the diaper bag in a hurry.

[@lesliebeaver]

I NEVER use my slow cooker but I use my Instant Pot almost EVERY DAY! It’s great for people like me that don’t plan way ahead. It’s just easier.

[@melaniemmoraless]

Jackson is going to have the best time growing up with two cool parents God bless ❤️❤️

[@kelliefay7625]

Where did you get the WW meal? I’m on WW and I’d love to try something like that. Also wouldn’t Jen be able to pump at the baby Center in the parks?

[@lauraporter2484]

Jenn, you can pump at the baby care centers in the park. Just time it out so you are close by one of them when you need to pump. Having you and Tim switch places would be an AWESOME video!!!

[@kel4151984]

You can do it! Head to the parks, Jen!

[@jennijem5887]

I really appreciate you two taking time to film while in the midst of the new parent tiredness

[@marycivitello6745]

Oh Jackson’s smiles are so cute! Love this vlog!

[@kelinh.3259]

Yes for slow cookers! When my kids were infants (a decade ago!), I relied almost exclusively on the crockpot because I could assembled it when they took their morning nap and not have to worry about it the rest of the day. I did want to mention, as I'm sure others have as well, that had Instant Pots been a thing when I had babies, I would have been so grateful. As it is, as a working mom of two hungry pre-teens, I have a deep and abiding love for my Instant Pot. I can use it like a crockpot and still do the same, beloved recipes; but, if I just totally forget to even thaw anything for dinner and get home at 5pm, I can still have something made by 6:30. I've done a whole chicken - frozen - in an hour and a half. It's my best friend. :)

[@shannonwebb121]

Canadian here: M&Ms are better than Smarties; agreed! Also an average backpack is what we used for a diaper bag and it was perfect and affordable

[@noecrockett]

I second the Jujube suggestion for diaper bags! They’re cute and WASHABLE, and some are convertible between backpack, messenger, etc. As for getting back to the parks, stay home as long as possible, but when you’re ready, wear him (I recommend a Tula for long wear), it’s so much easier and convenient. And use the Baby Care Center, they’re amazing.

[@JustARedHead73]

Do you ever just carry him around in your arms or just in the carrier? My daughter hated being swaddled, he is too cute.

[@littlep5441]

Home vlogs are cute. Your toe head, dish water hair convo was comical and cute!

[@Elizabeth-foolishmortal]

The child care centers are a good place to pump in the parks.

[@roguemarvel]

Coming here to say this. You could do the child care center or first aid. Just do a few hours at the park. But I still understand, it was a while before I left my first for an extended period of time and she didn't take bottles so it was very hard.

[@jodyben-david6188]

OMG I love you guys. ROFLOL! "Remember when we used to do a lot of stuff?" So, so cute. I promise it goes by fast!! You'll be doing tons of things very soon. Enjoy every second of every stage. You are fantastic parents and Jackson is SO lucky!!!!!!!

[@jolotess8131]

You guys are the cutest couple ever🥰🥰 and Jackson is so beautiful❤❤❤❤

[@lynnekerr3890]

My first comment after years of watching.....CANADIAN SMARTIES AREN’T GOOD??? Oh dear.....I’ve loved watching....gonna miss you.....🤣🤣🤣

[@StephhyDoll]

Love this 😍 you're both keeping it real and doing such a great job!

[@finkfizzle]

We got an instapot for Christmas and it has been a game changer. Frozen chicken cooks in like 10 minutes, you throw the stuff in and it’s done! Your hair looks fantastic! ❤️

[@johannacheong9745]

Jackson definitely looks like Tim. Also, I’ve never heard of dish water blonde before?? Only dirty blonde.

[@momokoblue8032]

Dish water blonde is an older term that people used. My family uses it as a term.

[@Anon71717]

His bag for diaper bag! It easily wipes off, has feet on the bottom to keep the fabric off of the ground/floor, includes a built in changing pad, can be carried multiple ways, can be expanded, and has plenty of space for all of your baby needs + room for maybe an extra shirt for you (because....babies are messy) and even a few vlogging items!

[@malloryr5248]

You need a InstaPot. Just as good as slow cooker and way faster!!!

[@badesjarlais]

AGREED!

[@heathercarter9741]

I was hunting for this comment just to add my like. I got an instant pot back in early December and I've used it a dozen times already!

[@tomcullen1749]

Hi Tim and Jen. We were just watching your video of the flower and garden festival from a couple of years ago (we are in Orlando in May - all good research) and our youngest daughter Penny (3 months) just gave you both huge smiles. She probably feels like she knows you, lots of your videos have been on the last 3 months! You guys are doing a great job, with Jackson, Penny hopes we get a chance to run into you during our holiday.

[@kimt8162]

There have been a few times where the slow cooker has literally saved me. When your at let's say a playdate, and you can't be home to cook, and you don't feel like making something because you know you'll be in late. And you've already eaten out a few times. It's so heavenly to have meal waiting for you at home.

[@youregonnaneedabiggerboat2936]

2 time mom here. I don’t know how you feel about letting Jackson self sooth, but I had both my kids sleeping thru the night by 6 weeks by doing this. I’d give it a limit and if they wouldn’t stop by a certain time (5 mins or so) then I’d go in to their rooms. I also had them sleeping in their own rooms from 4 weeks on. This helps them to know when they’re in their rooms at night it was sleepy time. Hope that helps!

[@themelissaeileen]

H O M E V L O G! ty both! love ur videos, Jackson is amazing!! ✌️♥️

[@hollieleggett2737]

Home vlogs are my favourite videos. Thanks guys.

[@CCrispyyy]

Jackson’s head control is amazing, so noticed that in the birth vlog

[@jordanflynn4683]

I pumped and went to Disney! The baby centers are a life changer! Take your time in the parks and take advantage of the AC and baby rooms in all the parks

[@shellyprice422]

I LOVE home vlogs!

[@RJ-lx7lz]

An Instant Pot can be your best friend. Cooks so much faster than a slow cooker. Love the videos.

[@kpoinsett8257]

Tummy time was so cute. He is doing great!!💙💙💙

[@tiarahagaman]

I used to have a Petunia Pickle Bottom ( the weekender it might be to big for you guys im not sure) I have never had issues with staining. I can see how the inside might stain but I never spilled anything crazy . Something that has always helped me in regards to my diaper bag was to get a few smaller zippered pouches. I kept my wipes, a few diapers, and the changer ( sometimes desitin) in one pouch then extra clothes in another. You can use as many pouches or as little as youd need. This helps when you get into the bag and makes finding what you need easier . I have four kids and have been through my fair share of diaper bags and the PPB was by far my favorite.

[@couuurtneeey]

My son had a few months where he took 30 minute naps almost to the minute. He’s now 13 months and takes naps anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours.

[@rebornsnuzzles2573]

I used a Vera Bradley weekender as my diaper bag and it was perfect. Perfect. Tons of interior pockets. Lots of bags that have interior pockets (like the Jujube - hated that bag) don't have a lot of space in the middle for items like clothing and blankets once you fill the pockets. Mine also has a key fob, some outside pockets, space for a changing pad. I still have that bag and my kids are grown.

[@majakodani5818]

It is easy to pump and nurse at Disney at baby centers. You can even sterilize everything there. Super awesome!

[@angithompson9500]

Love watching your home logs, especially now with Jackson! Seeing these remind me of when my husband and I had our first baby!! Anyhow, love watching y’all and y’all are doing great!!!

[@lesley3609]

My mom was a toehead when she was little. She always explained that it was like a white blonde. Very blonde.

[@Journey_On1]

For Universal: each Health Services location has a nursing room (or curtained-off space, at CW) where you could pump and/or nurse. You could also leave your breast pump at any of the main Health Service bases in each park and come in and out throughout the day to pump so you don't have to carry your pump around with you. You could even leave your milk in a fridge (it would be labeled) so you wouldn't need to carry that around as well. :) I look forward to when you can get back to the parks, Jenn!

[@mv1420]

I laughed out loud when you talked about chucking the lemon pig in a lake. XD (Also Jackson is soooo cute.)

[@kellypoulnot4201]

Taking Cara Babies is how I sleep trained my son! He was sleeping through the night at 8 weeks. Cara has online classes you can take but her instagram is also a wealth of knowledge!! I still follow her over a year later because she shares so much information on baby sleep, eating, naps, illness, travel, etc.

[@jgvids2242]

I wouldn’t risk going to Disney with Jackson during flu season...

[@sarahs1108]

I so love the home vlogs! Thanks for letting us in!❤
