[@staciegibson1876]

I am so proud of Max and you! Two of the kindest people and you can tell how hard Max has worked. Feel like I know you both and have been along for the ride! Can’t wait to catch a Bruins vs flyers game!

[@lilygubbins3936]

[@katelynz223]

So proud of max!! He’s been killing it this season!! Also Brody sleeping at the beginning while you were working out was so cute!!

[@rhiannad7252]

I’m a Penguins fan, but still SO proud of Max for signing with the Flyers! Love how supportive you two are of each other 🥰

[@vanessad7202]

"thank you, for being here today." max, you KILL me!! :)

[@brooklynwilson_]

Yessss congratulations!!!! So deserving and so genuinely happy for him! Love Gretchen for always being so incredibly supportive!!

[@alexandralynne4073]

My boyfriend and I sleep with our humidifier on every night and if we don’t we both wake up with sore throats so they definitely do work!! It’s also helped my hair & skin be less dry. Also, new Starbucks drink for you to try! Iced chai tea latte with oat milk and brown sugar syrup. Tastes just like the Trader Joe’s cookie butter!

[@brianaaarose]

I couldn’t be happier for max!! such a big fan of the NHL and I’m beyond excited to see max play! congratulations to him🥳 ily guys foreva & eva❤️❤️

[@AshleyP2013]

My husband can drink all the coffee then nap. It's insane lol. Also, go max!! So incredible getting to watch him live his dream with you by his side.

[@jemmlizzerz7823]

I also live in PA and have a humidifier that I really like. You can get different types for various room sizes and they will only work for that area usually. I have a Acurite brand digital indoor temperature/humidity monitor (from Amazon) that I keep in the room with the humidifier!

[@MaddieCassidy]

SO HAPPY FOR MAX (and you!) i love how supportive you are of max, it truly feels like it's a huge milestone for you too 💌 he is so deserving and i can't wait to see how well he does on the flyers! when i found out from your instagram i literally had to tell my boyfriend right away because of how excited i was for you guys hehe

[@as.alwayscare6850]

My cycle makes me bratty as well 😭😭 it’s so important to just remember that everything will be okay 🥰 and Congrats to Max 👏🏻👏🏻

[@thebeautyshell194]

In PA humidifiers are needed. You can get a bigger one to put in the living room to do the whole area. QVC has some good floor ones and there is a type of digital thermometer that lets you know what it is.

[@maryrode3690]

I live in Philly and it’s honestly the best place ever! You will love it here. 🎉🎉

[@danielleinfante5086]

Max in a robe is so cute lol big congrats!!!! I'm so happy for you guys fr fr 🥰

[@AllThingsAlexa]

OMG congrats max!!!!🎉🎉

[@AllThingsAlexa]

Clearly I missed the announcement vlog haha but still congrats 😀😀😀

[@izziesmalkais6337]

Humidifier is an absolute must from like November to April. So dry so so dry it makes my throat so dry

[@allisonstewart291]

Definitely just left my class as soon as I got the notification you posted❤️

[@tasneemsabir3632]

LOL

[@AmieOlsonalo]

Brody with his head out the window made me smile so much 💗

[@anabelleparada3036]

my dermatologist told me that this past winter has been dryer than any other! i live in MA and i feel like it’s definitely true at least here on the east coast because i have struggled with my lips cracking dry and so many other dry skin problems that i’ve never had before and so i bought a humidifier too, i have one small one for my bedroom by the brand “hey dewy” and then i got one from Canopy for my living room area. definitely helps a lot but you might need multiple!

[@imanhawaa8887]

So happy for Max & you, he truly deserves everything!! Y’all are so cute, the little surprise was adorable!! Sending your lil fam love❤️❤️

[@jodi1979]

I'm going to get some Flyers shirts and hoodies to support Max.

[@mercedesa1466]

Congratulations to Max!! I'm so proud of him! Can't wait to see him play with the flyers

[@beth1865]

Have never been into hockey but will be cheering for the Flyers now!!! Congratulations to Max🥳 you guys are so deserving, beyond happy for you both!!

[@rachelweyenberg4315]

So true about how growing up is so weird!! It’s crazy how each day feels not that different from the last but looking back a lot has changed!!! So proud of both you and Max!!! 💕

[@xoEllieSteward]

hopefully I can see max play in person soon since I live in philly!! so exciting and go flyers!

[@izziesmalkais6337]

And so proud of max!!! I can’t wait to go back to Philly for in person classes and will definitely watch Max’s games!!!!!

[@jillianday3522]

You can get a thermometer that will also measure the relative humidity in that space (I have one that is the Vicks brand), not 100% positive where you can find them, probably could find them at a store like Walmart (or on Amazon). Some home thermostats (the one where you control the temp of your home) have a humidity setting, or you might check with your leasing office/maintenance if there is any way to adjust the humidity setting on any machinery (like a/c unit/heater) in your apartment. Humidifiers do help, but that one probably isn't going to be able to change the humidity in your entire apartment drastically. I believe there are larger humidifier designed for larger spaces that you can buy (again at like Walmart or Amazon)

[@laurakenney6001]

I have that same humidifier! Also not sure if it does anything, but you have to be super careful about cleaning it! One time we didn’t clean it properly and my boyfriend and I both got really sick (difficulty breathing, tight chest, etc)

[@robynburchell]

you are so genuine, ugh love ya sis

[@dancergirl1348]

I had a humidifier when I first moved into my apartment because it was so dry! I find it very helpful!! Use it with the windows closed. I usually put it on from early evening all the way until I wake up in the morning. But that was just for me personally!

[@carlisleemily]

finally just catching up on your vids now, I am so happy for Max!!!!! yay!!! what an exciting year he so deserves it :) he was so funny in this vlog I'm laughing so hard ahahaha

[@MikesVegas]

Congratulations Max ! The Flyers deserve the very best ! 🏒

[@dezyxoxo99]

I'm from Wilkes Barre PA, it's usually pretty dry in PA but this winter has been the worst. Humidifiers definitely help! Especially with stuffiness

[@jalyassin]

I have my humidifier on all the time too and I feel it helps with congestion

[@TheBabybooxful]

The humidifier, I know it’s kind of common sense but please make sure you clean it out, pink mold can grow so easily inside of the water chamber

[@KatieSev]

So so freaking happy for max he seems like he works so hard

[@sophierobbins4859]

I have two humidifiers in my room and I don't really notice a difference when im using it but as soon as I stop for a few days i notice a massive difference!

[@luckylillygreen5053]

gretchen!! i would recommend a larger humidifier that does not spray. it can make your room damp and musty. i also think the one you have is too small for your room size and would recommend the honeywell top fill tower humidifier!

[@kaylakloepfer3817]

Your humidifier is doing something, but it's not big enough for your entire apartment. Mines a bit more powerful and I close my bedroom during the day and have it in the main area. It helps a bit. At night I put it in my bedroom with door closed and helps a lot.

[@kharinapineda7504]

I have literally never watched a hockey game, but I am so proud/excited for max!! 🥳

[@cailinnbrooke]

Gretchen I am so GLAD you asked about the humidifiers! I am always curious too about all that, don't know if I spelled it right but you get the gist

[@Liquid-iv]

Congrats Max! 🙌🎉

[@IsabelleMichelle]

You and Max are literally so cute and couple goals😍

[@madisoncrawford5367]

Literally I relate to the moodiness part so much 😅

[@sorynna._3184]

Heck yeah!! Go FLYERS!! Somehow I got a mixed feeling that he will make it.... Can’t wait to see him play on the team!! Congrats Max!!

[@nicolerodriguez9568]

I have a humidifier and I put Vicks in it but it helps me breath so much better !

[@SamElle]

ahhh so so proud of max!!!!

[@Caitceneviva]

I live not to far from you guys and let me tell you this winter was THE DRIEST winter of my life. Literally unbearable. It definitely hasn’t been like this in past years. Both of my roommates have humidifiers in their rooms and swear by it. I’m really considering investing so let me know if it is helping you! Also, congrats on the contract Max! Go flyers! I have a friend dating someone on that team. It would be cool if y’all linked up.

[@xDavidWallerx]

I know Dyson is a bit of an investment but I love there fan and humidifier because it’s so dry here in Ohio too and they measure the air quality in your apt/house and will tell you the humidity as well!!

[@LeaZun]

CONGRATS!! 😻 loved it again very much!! 💙❤️

[@tessremy-detty5025]

Congrats , Max! Well deserved!

[@hannahwaples6915]

I’m from Canada and it’s so dry here! Try putting that humidifier by your bed! Works much better that way

[@ashleyraven8407]

CONGRATS!!! Flyers is my favorite NHL team!

[@Laurenmu14]

I live in PA by you guys! I use a humidifier only at night but it makes such a difference. I haven’t had a sore throat at all all winter, and it does help with stuffiness too. Might be weird but I also use a nasal spray too since it’s so dry 😅

[@mvulikh4977]

yes omygod humidifiers are life savers, i go to college in vermont and i constantly have mine on in the winter

[@katherinekobe8449]

Ugh so so so happy and proud of you two!!

[@smash021795]

Ugh my apartment is soooo dry from our heat from winter and me my boyfriend and even one of our cats got sooo dry, we got a humidifier and noticed a huuuuge difference!!!

[@carolinerhea3493]

Humidifiers are a life safer! I would say it does take like a week or two for it to actually make a big difference but I’ve always kept mine own 24/7. I don’t actually know but at least to me I feel like it helps a lot.

[@averygaming8707]

Congrats Max! Welcome! Go Flyers

[@elenaleon1218]

I have humidifiers and it works... specially for your bedroom so you can sleep better. I live in Iowa and it helps me sleep better

[@annao4787]

my heart is so happy for you guys

[@AmieOlsonalo]

Also a huge congrats to Max

[@kaitlynreiss4664]

And the last minute of ur vlog is too real lol I feel like I should be 23

[@KayaMarissa]

GO MAX!!!!! HE DESERVES IT!!! WOOHOOOO

[@admann3033]

I love my humidifier. I think it does help with the dry air. I first got one for my nose bleeds because my nose was soooo dry but as soon as I use mine the nose bleeds go away!!

[@nancypratt9513]

I thought that you only used the Colgate Optic White Renewal toothpaste and mouth wash? Same with Brooke? I used Crest 3D Whitening toothpaste for a long time, and then switched to Colgate and noticed a bigger difference in removing yellow stains that you can only see in a 20X magnifying mirror. Now I'm hooked on that toothpast.

[@IanCurls123]

Yes, you can find all the properties of the air in your apartment by knowing only two (let's say the dry bulb temp and rel hum) with the psychrometric chart. That's literally why it was invented by Carrier in the first place.

[@elviraalemanvieyra4546]

im so happy that max signed to the NHL congrats

[@Ashley-pz7bx]

Try putting the humidifier in your room while you sleep! That makes the biggest difference for me!

[@mikesheerin7607]

LETS GO MAX

[@diamondpribble2677]

“Whole house humidifier “ will make a huge difference!

[@darlinvee7582]

Yesssss the Nestlé cookies are the best🥲

[@shivangisinha5620]

Congrats!!!! This is great news ❤️

[@jesshurst7275]

I live in Michigan and we have to use our humidifier all winter. I have it running 24 hours a day. Without it the static is so bad I can't even sit on the couch without shocking myself.⚡

[@pariswegleitner9425]

I started using a humidifier at night in my room and it has helped me out so much. My nose isn’t stuffy anymore and my sleep quality has really improved. Just one night without it and I can tell that I didn’t use it.

[@blessingakindele317]

Aww soo happy for max 🤍🤍🤍

[@doingdentalschool]

ahh congrats max! This is awesome! You should be so proud!

[@Nicole-kh3fg]

I get so moody before my period too UGH it never used to happen but this year has been different

[@juliacurtis8115]

can you link the grey nike crewneck you're wearing in the beginning?!

[@nicoleolesen4245]

Congrats Max!!!! Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately??), the way the Fly Guys are playing at the moment, he may be skating at the WFC before you know it!!!

[@Jazzberry101]

Where is your grey tank from that you're wearing at the very beginning?!

[@fragos]

Knwo where here necklace is from with lock??

[@JC-tr8pc]

@@fragos I think Louis Vuitton

[@fragos]

@@JC-tr8pc I did about half an hour of research on Louis Vuitton website and the only one they offer is a silver one I think $200 goes to a charity or something. There is no gold one ever made in belive.... Hers might be a custom piece. Too bad it's nice in gold

[@JC-tr8pc]

@@fragos I just went on her ig and it's 100% from Louis Vuitton because it has a big LV on the lock. Awww that's super weird you can't find it in gold.. so maybe it is a custom piece. Try to dm her on Instagram and ask!

[@fragos]

@@JC-tr8pc I tried urghh never answers. Thanks for trying! :)

Aww that was so sweet 🍪🍪❤❤🐕‍🦺🐕
