I am so happy that everything as worked out for you. The joys of motherhood is wonderful and having multiple little ones in the home is bliss. You waited so patiently for children and god has blessed you with a son and daughter!!

[@kimberleeMP]

I like when you film in different locations!!! It’s nice!!! You could talk for one hour about one product and I’d still watch!!! Love you Jenn can’t wait to meet your prince!!!!

[@mylynnj3792]

Your family room/kitchen area looks so bright and inviting. Great remodel!

[@srodrig854]

I love where you are filming...perfect! I have a wonderful feeling that by now you have your bundle of joy already in your arms. I will have to watch the movie, I have not seen it yet but I will for sure. I wish you all the best and I cannot wait to see you again:)

[@madisonjacobs5408]

CC's sofa looks so comfy, such a cute space for her. Thanks for sharing!

[@0489Michele]

You are just a joy to watch! I’m not a mom yet, hopefully in a few years, but I just love you so much and love learning from you! You have the sweetest spirit! ♥️

[@mrsrobinson829]

I remember when you got that tea maker. I've been watching for a long time. Love all your videos.

[@BrandiN323]

Sorry for the double post, but I was just curious if you have ever considered doing a video about your blog. How to start a blog, what to include, photo tips, etc. Hope you and baby boy are doing great!!

[@ThePinkfluf]

I love your videos . I could listen to you for hours talking about anything !happy delivery 😘

[@fimoize]

Best wishes for the safe & healthy arrival of your baba. I've been rewatching ALL of your old videos, enjoying them all over again. Thank you Jen.

[@cupcakebabyx0x]

I would love to see an updated what’s in my carry on or packing with only a carry on suitcase. I binge watch your packing videos and I’ve been dying to try to go on my next trip with only a carry on suitcase. I always use your videos as a guide 🙂💓

[@JavaFirst]

This filming location is good. The lighting is fine. It doesn't make you look washed out or too bright.

[@beautyplayground]

That tea maker

[@rebeccamckeague7044]

Thanks for continuing to share your life with us all. I wish you all the best in the upcoming months!

[@acatslifepisicaslife105]

Congratulations on the arrival of your new baby boy! May God bless your family. :)

[@haileekibbe1803]

If you haven’t yet, I bet you’d love to watch the Crown on Netflix!!

[@cindyb8775]

I appreciate your videos Jennifer. You have "introduced" me to some neat things over the years and I appreciate it very much. My prayer is that your little guy gets here safely and that you settle down to a happy late winter season.

[@venessatalbert4602]

OMG!😱😱😱😱 I finally found your new channel! I had been looking through your old vids to see if you posted anything and then here you are! I found my friend y'all! All things are good in the world now! On to binge watching your new channel for the weekend. I got my snacks and my juice and I'm ready.

[@Jesivotchka]

Looks like I'll be saving up for a tea maker! And love this setup, it makes it super cozy and like having a chat with a friend.

[@katiesmith91022]

Thanks for sharing Jen! I was watching some old vlogs and your new kitchen looks so different from then! Different in a good way! Hope all is well! Can’t wait to see baby boy!

[@megablessedgram]

Always fun to watch your videos! Prayers for you and baby boy....can't wait to see him and little Charlotte with him! Hugs to you all!

[@Bhdez62]

Love everything you showed the tea maker is really nice, what a wonderful gift that would be either the teas. I wish you many blessings on your delivery and can't wait to see the baby and Charlottes reaction to her baby brother. 💞

[@Ane0803]

As I watched this you were in labor with Donny! Congrats, and Happy Belated birthday to him!!! ((Hugs)) ♥️

[@toddthomas8491]

I love the tea maker! Thanks Jen and wishes for a safe and wonderful delivery for baby 2. Kelly :)

[@laurabaerg5352]

Yay for another video!! Praying for a smooth delivery and transition for you and your family!!

[@sweetheart4u02]

I want to wish you a safe delivery for baby and you as well. You really have a beautiful family and I wish you lots of happiness and love!

[@katehensley62]

I completely agree with your review of Darkest Hour - what a captivating movie. I also loved The Post but as a Washingtonian it was a must see for me. What a nice way for you to Don to relax in these weeks before baby boy is here. Very sweet, Jen! So happy for you can't wait to meet little boy Ross.

[@lauralvegan2835]

I keep checking to see if baby boy has arrived. 😁 Hope you’re doing well and hanging in there these last few days.❤️

[@chaank1069]

Laura L Vegan I do too.

[@PenniesNotPerfection]

Good luck with your delivery! Best wishes for a healthy baby! Can’t wait to follow in your footsteps in a few months.

[@LisainCalifornia]

Jen, I hope you are healthy and happy and have your baby soon. I loved this video. Your videos make me happy

[@hmarie060]

I always loved your knit nooks! I still rewatch them now and then. Looking forward to baby boy and praying for a safe delivery. 💙

[@sharonbartoszak9159]

Hailey H I enjoyed those too and miss them

[@kathleena247]

Happy belated birthday and good luck with your delivery!

[@meganbinder3911]

Great video! CC’s nook is adorable!!! ..... and yes I love the new filming location, your kitchen is beautiful!!!!

[@Barbara-yw7mz]

Sending you words of blessing and love at your delivery time. Enjoy your special maternity time, it goes bye so quickly. My oldest child from three is 9 now (the youngest is one day younger than your doughter:) From my perspective those are the fastest but most meaningful years in life!

[@SarraCannon]

Love your videos so much. I am thinking of you and sending you happy thoughts for an easy delivery and a healthy baby boy soon!

[@jennp.6984]

Congratulations on the birth of your precious baby boy!

[@MamaWonderland]

Thank you for sharing where you got the sofa/table set up for CC! Another wonderful favorites video....everytime you post one, I add more items to my shopping and wish list ❤ xo

[@vanessa91614]

Thanks. And lighting is fine. Happy bday to you n Don. And best of luck on birth of baby boy.

[@alexismaycock4665]

Praying for a safe and speedy delivery 💗

[@everydayinthebay3917]

When you are out of maternity tops I highly recommend the new Target brand A New Day. Their t shirts are so comfy and have lovely seasonal colors. As for accessories you have to check out the oil diffuser bracelets from Vitality Extracts! I'm partial to the glass diffuser bracelet collection. They are functional and beautiful.

[@abunchahooey]

I've unfortunately gotten hooked on Kopari Lip Love. It's not cheap, but the tube lasts a long time and is very effective at keeping my lips conditioned, it's like a treatment with a bit of gloss. I wish you a speedy, safe delivery, Jen!

[@toniatkathgr632]

I watch "the Post" just yesterday and I loved it !!! I'm planning to watch the Darkest Hour within the week !! I like that we have the same taste in movies !!!

[@journeys_with_jen]

That tea maker looks amazing. I use the Teavana perfect tea maker but yours is even better. You have a very exciting month ahead. Best of luck with baby boy!

[@GingerM14]

Yep love this location.. and congrats on Donny

[@jennifermcgonnell1026]

Thanks for sharing Jen - take care and all the best 🙏😊

[@marissag423]

Just wanna say congratulations to the family!

[@TessieDobey]

I remembered two years ago, I was preggers with twin boys (#4 and #5), my feet were swollen looking like two roast beefs, lower back pain, and crying all the time. I was just miserable.

[@jensnksm]

LOVE these ! I get great suggestions from your favorites and empties ❤️❤️

[@readingteacher1168]

I love historical films as well. I just finished watching The Crown (Netflix) - amazing. I purchase the Breville tea pot based on your recommendation in an earlier video. My husband and I love out tea maker.

[@lisysjourney3150]

Congrats on your new baby

[@chaank1069]

All the best to you with the delivery. 👍🏽 wish you well. Can’t wait to see the baby.

[@MissEllaReads]

Can’t wait to meet baby boy! Blessings ❤️

[@SuperJdizzle18]

If you all go to movies frequently, you should look into getting moviepasses! It's only $10 month for unlimited movies in theaters so if you go once a month, it pays for itself :)

[@denisefonda2815]

Jen, Thank You, as always for sharing. I am anxious to visit Sephora and try your suggested lip balm, it sounds great! I really thought you would have Baby Boy by now, but I know, my second son just didn't want to leave his nice comfortable spot and had to be coaxed. It will be wonderful when he arrives, I'm sure Charlotte will ace being a big sister!!

[@bridgette712]

Jen, you keep surprising us with videos- thanks!...although if my guess proves correct, your baby boy will soon be arriving as I have been thinking Jan. 31. My nephew (who is the first to make me an aunt) was born 13 years ago tomorrow :) Can't wait to see The Post!

[@starstruckfeie]

Will definitely have to check out Darkest Hour thank you! When u mentioned the Breville I realized that is how I found you!! From your review video and you mentioned that it was also in a birthday vlog and then I fell in love with your vlogs!! I’m doing my first ever princess half marathon next month which are some of my most favorite vlogs of yours! Yay!

[@BrandiN323]

Great video as always Jen! Hope you are having a wonderful week!

[@everydayinthebay3917]

Best lip balms ever in my opinion are blistex lip serum and burts bees ultra conditioning. They are amazing! I even got my hubby addicted to the lip serum. He described the texture as " the cream on top of good yogurt " haha!

[@twobirdys]

You know what tea is really good? The creme earl grey that comes in a purple ziplock baggie from Trader Joe’s. So creamy and tasty. Also TJ makes a great all around balm for lips, cuticles and more called Head to Toe balm. You get a huge tin 57g for $4. Thinking of you and hope your delivery goes well. I’m sure it will!

[@Hdanseur]

I am with you on the historic movies. I love them.

[@sharminrahman8038]

congrats on the baby, he is adorable.

[@Dreblueskies]

Loved the darkest hour, one of the best movies I've seen.

[@palomabrighton9756]

Would love to see some more vlogs of you and your family (a day to day routine ?)

[@bumblebee6080]

you wont never see that

[@ArtJourneyUK]

Bumblebee ...that double negative makes it sound promising! I think you mean “you will never”

[@maggiegodoy7012]

any more cooking videos??? I really like those

[@sillystupidpastime]

warm thoughts for your final "push" of pregnancy. good luck! enjoy your videos.

[@nawalkhan2788]

Good luck......come back happy and healthy😊with the baby

[@paeeze5]

Jen best wishes for easy delivery... thank you for even this days you are uncomfortable and tierd but again thinking of us We love you too ... than you💟💟💟💟💐💐💐💐💝💝💝💝🍀🍀🍀🍀🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@cindydunn3036]

Congratulations on Donny boy! 💙

[@71yessi]

Haha!!! Big tushies are in!!! 😂

[@anatechera5101]

Happy belated birthday Jen!!!

[@thespongepuppy]

It is so exciting that your parents are getting a grandson!!!!

[@YouCanCallmeNet]

Every time I see a new video from you I think...is this it ? Is this the baby news, is he here yet ???!! lol Can't wait !!

[@stephaniemarino4936]

Always soooo excited to see you post a new video 😊😊😊

[@kristymarie6065]

Your videos make my day! :)

[@fmm269]

Jen you would love the movie The Greatest Showman!

[@debipowell9509]

Love your favorites, Jennifer! Would you mind telling me what brand your oven/micro combo is? We live in a "parade of homes" home (been here for 13 yrs) and have built in appliances. Must get new ones asap! Apparently they dont make the same sizes of appliances as none of the new ones fit into our openings. HUGE headache. I now have to have a cabinet maker come tweak our openings so instead of going with a micro on top and an oven underneath it, I'll just open it up to fit a combo unit in that space. *same situation with our built in refridge unfortunately! :( Thanks for sharing.... Looking at Kitchenaid but would love your brand to consider!

[@msmary126]

Now you're making me want tea! 😍👍💕

[@jessicagriffis1407]

@prettyneatliving...I think you’d also enjoy the movie “I,tonya” if you enjoy that type of movie...it’s about Tonya Harding the American figure skater and has Margot Robbie is the lead actress...brilliant movie!

[@JeSuisEmma28]

I don't know for sure because I haven't seen the movie or researched it, but I have read that the Darkest hour is very inaccurate historically. I am still interested in seeing it though, have heard a lot of people say they really enjoyed it

[@mariadiosdado5321]

Can you do a what's in my hospital bag?

[@plannedinpen4434]

I also have the Breville tea-maker and love it. Do you find that the tea stains the little basket on yours? Any tips on how to get that off?

[@starstruckfeie]

Planned in Pen i had that problem with mine as well! I used baking soda and lemon juice and let it sit for a little bit and then scrubbed it with the empty half of lemon and it came right off (also from the inside bottom of the kettle and the basket bar). ☺️🍋

[@20011Amanda]

I miss seeing Don in your videos. He was the star....

[@Madisondmclean]

My favorite video of the month ❤️❤️❤️ ****correction...every month!

[@staceyshaw564]

If you like historical movies - have you watched the Crown on Netflix? It is really good!

[@nicktheveganchick]

I've never been this early to a video before! Yay for a new video!

[@doriscox2734]

Waiting for the news of baby boy. You are great a inspiration to young Mom’s .Thanks for sharing your favorites.

[@Ane0803]

Doris Cox She has photos up on her Instagram if you have seen him yet. Looks just like Don, which is fitting since that’s his name too. 😂

[@raquelhazel4116]

I hope you will have more kids😊

[@jessicabreann8374]

I love you so much!!!!!

[@lyndsielove123]

Hospital bag video please!

[@bettysircely750]

Love your videos !! Next time we see you maybe you will be holding a little baby boy !!!! Awwww!!

[@angelaevington3961]

Congratulation on the birth....hes beautiful..x

[@averekriz]

i haven't watched your videos in years, but i have started watching orphan black on netflix and i can say for sure that the character alison hendrix was based on you. her husband is even named donald. she uses the same rags to but up her gift wrapping roles as you (did?) and her crafts room is painted in the same blue. her house looks kinda like yours. she dresses kinda like you. please watch that, honestly it's scary.

[@myview6852]

Good luck. Best wishes for a healthy delivery.

[@susanvelez6534]

Your so funny Jen lol

[@Jasmine4.44]

I feel the babies name will be Theo

[@ArtJourneyUK]

Jasmine ...that’s the name of CC’s cousin (Don’s sisters son), so it’s unlikely they’ll use the same name.

[@Jasmine4.44]

ArtJourneyUK I forgot his name lol I never would've thought it would be Donny, now that we know his name

[@ArtJourneyUK]

Jasmine ahh I think we all knew it would be Don/Donald/Donny as that’s in the family Heritage name. Don’s grandfather’s name was Donald Ross, so is his dad... little Donny is Don Ross #4!

[@BonnyL]

It's not February yet LOL

[@sweetheart4u02]

I swear I could listen to you all day.....I want to let you know you, you should be receiving the package I sent in 2 days hope I made it in time for baby boy.

[@TessieDobey]

I bet Jen gave birth to their son by now!

[@Ane0803]

Tessie Dobey She has. He was born on Jan 30. 😊

[@TessieDobey]

I am so happy for her!

[@Mettewanning77]

He is going to be born on sunday february 4th.

[@gragraw9640]

Something other than what you buy is “tacky”? Some would call it “practical”.

[@courtneycox8297]

Something other than what you buy is “impractical?”

[@gragraw9640]

Not at all what I said.

[@abunchahooey]

Practical doesn't have to be tacky. Everybody has different ideas on what they think it tacky, too. Either way, that's why there are so many things to choose from.
