The fact that Flynn is so aware of his siblings and the fact that he wants to show them his new things and makes sure they’re okay is just the sweetest thing to see! He is such an awesome big brother. :)
Flynn is so sweet to The twins
FLYNN IS STINKIN PRECIOUS!!!!!

He’s a tiny extrovert Erik ♥️❤️♥️❤️
So cute 😍 💓 💗 💕
can we just take a moment to appreciate how excited Flynn gets over EVERY gift he gets? i fuckin’ love it. buddy’s got like 15 different kinds of the same trucks and still screams every time he opens a new one.
I think my favourite thing is Colleen puts toys away in the garage and will randomly give them to Flynn and he thinks they are a new gift and gets so excited 😭😂
The fact that people steal comments (did they steal this one??) is so friggin weird. What in the world are people doing with their lives.
@@vampyx1629 is this true? I thought they are buying him new toy at least once a week as toys are always packaged?
@@dominikamihokova784 Colleen also receives a lot of things in her fan mail, so it's mostly that
@@dominikamihokova784 she said in a previous video/vlog that we shouldn't worry about Flynn being spoilt as she takes toys he hasn't played with in a long time and will put them away until his day prize box needs updated or something else x
Flynn showing the babies his toys & calling them "cutie bugs" is the cutest thing
i believe you mean “cutie bOhg(s)” 😂🤍 gosh they’re all so cute!!
Advice from a twin: Hi Colleen, I am a boy girl twin my self and some preferences that I have is for all of their birthdays try to have each of them their own cake. My mom done this since we were born and it was very exciting to choose our own theme for each of our cakes. Even through we share a birthday it made both of us feel like it was our own day.
Tortilla talk question: When Maisy came home you told us about the pearl necklace you got to pass down one day and mentioned that you got something for Erik to pass down to Wesley. What did you get for him and do you plan on doing something similar for Flynn? My mom passed a ring down to me that has a Ruby, which is both of our birth stones, and it is one of my most prized and special possessions.
I asked that too! Hopefully we will get an answer!
I want to know this as well! It’s all I keep thinking about lol!!
Flynn calling Wesley “that guy” may be my new favourite thing in the world
Or maybe I should have said him calling Maisy “that guy” 😂
That was cute and hilarious lol
He is such a good big brother!
Funny
I love it 🤣 and his southern “cutie bug”
flynn is the absolute sweetest with his little siblings, he’s got such a good heart
He’s the sweetest, “hii cutieee buoggggg”
ikr
@Elsa sasa sß
So true
He definitely has good role models in both of his parents on how to care for his younger siblings. And how to treat other people as well
kory’s editing is so hilarious, him saying, “the woman was too stunned to speak” was great!!! 😂
Yes, we all missed the kory voiceovers
I loved that the comment is underated
I busted a gut on that.
I lost it
Oml same
Cory’s editing is literally soooo funny 😂😂😂😂 “The woman was TOO stunned to SPEAK!”
Tortilla Talk: Another fun fact about Maisy's name! So in Hungarian 'honey' is written as 'méz'. When you want to say honey in a cutesy and lovely way, you say 'mézi', which is pronounced exactly the same as Maisy!! I think that is so sweet and cute! And it really does fit her, because she seems like such a sweet a beautiful little human. Sending love to you and your family!
the difference in your happiness from last month to this month is astounding! i’m so happy your babies are home. ❤️
Flynn saying “hi cutie bug” to the babies over and over is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen! He is such a good big brother!
Hearing Flynn say “hi cutie bugs” to the twins just made my entire upcoming year 😭🥺
The fact that Kory has started voicing over the twins now like he did with Flynn is hilarious to me
A big piece of advice that I would give from having a twin sister is really pushing that they are two separate babies. One of my biggest issues growing up was being referred to as "the twins". I felt like no one saw me as me and only knew us as twins and not people. Also bonding separately! Having those moment where it was just my parents and I and doing this together helped a lot.
Flynn being so happy and chilled having Wes and Maisy at home is a reflection of how great your parenting is! He is completely secure in the fact that his parents love him so much and it shows😁
That’s so true. Some people put all the blame on the kids when they feel jealous but sometimes the parents stop paying attention to the oldest.
THIS!

I love how flynn calls the twins “those guys” or “that guy” and is so sweet and gentle with them. Just shows that he has the best role models showing him how to treat others
one doctor in my county said we cant raise our children or teach them things, they act how they see us, their parents, act
I was going to say the same thing!! "That guy saw it" killed me lol
tortilla talk question: How is flynn doing with sleeping? Does he sleep through the night or does he wake up sometimes? Is there a specific time he always wakes up? Also, you're such a strong person! You always manage to cheer me up and impress me with how you're handling everything that happened and is happening. Stay strong! :-)
The whole time Flynn kept adding toys to Daisy, I couldn’t help but think, “THAT’S ENOUGH SLICES” 😂 Daisy is an angel!
Colleen: “We’re having so crab and lesbians”
Rachel: “just one” 😂😂
Tortilla Talk Question: Hearing you say "my brain is already trying to erase the time in the NICU" REALLY hit home. My daughter was a 26 weeker and was in the NICU for 6 months. I was 19 at the time and a single mom. She'll be 16 in a few weeks and while I remember some things from the NICU, it wasn't until you were vlogging your NICU journey that all of the memories from that period of my life came up. The sounds of the alarms, the feeling of the hospital swaddle blankets, the smell of the NICU all came rushing back along with all the feelings you were feeling. I remembered it so clearly and realized I had been holding onto all that grief all of the years because I had nowhere to release and no one to relate to because I was so young and I had an extremely minimal support system. Do you think in the future you'll watch vlogs back from your twins' time in the NICU to remind yourself of your strength and endurance or do you think you'll never want to bring yourself back to that time mentally and emotionally?
Amy, you are such a strong woman! If no one has told you... you are amazing!
Omg, 6 months! That must’ve been super hard.
Wow what incredible story! You are amazing!!!
26 weeks wow that must have been so scary!
In my opinion, Flynn looks exactly like Eric. Wesley is a perfect mix of Stocklin and Ballenger. Then little miss Maisy is your twin. I can’t wait to see what they look like when they get a little older. All three of them are absolutely perfect 🥰
I agree! I think maisey looks exactly like colleen
I see that!
Yes I think Maisy looks like Colleen and I’m not sure about Wesley. If you’re right after they grow up more it’ll be an equal mix which would be cool! But they are all amazing and beautiful no matter what!
Maisy looks like Erik’s mom
@@vinceperhaps i agree! Maisy is so similar to Eriks mom. And wesley looks like his ballinger cousins!
“That’s just my baby kitty. That’s just my baby boy.” I could NOT stop laughing. 🤣🥰
Hahaha sameee I was crying from laughing so hard when he kept on putting toys on Daisy🤣🤣🤣
“That’s just my baby tail “😂
"Look brother and sister🥺" Flynn is such a good big brother❤️ it's amazing how the siblings adjust to having a new one at home.
tortilla talk: what is your favorite twin baby product? you almost said in a clip in this vlog but got caught up with those cuties haha! love you Colleen :)
I came to the comments to see if anyone mentioned it! We need to KNOW!
@@josephinedouglas2445 i think she mentioned it in another vlog that it’s the twin boppy but i still want it addressed haha :)
Flynn interacting with his siblings "hi cutie bug" is just adorable!
“HIi cuTe buOoG!”
@@rocket8_8 i know he says boog witch is very funny
OMG, you guys are sooo funny- Flynn calling Wesley "that guy" is hilarious, and when you said "Daisy is the chillest cat in the world, she let's Flynn just pick her up with his forklift" and then she just continues to sleep with 20lbs of toy vehicles piled on her! Lmao, I LOVE it!!!!!
🐈🛻🚙🚑🚌🚎🚐🏍🏎🚜🚲🛺🛵🤣
@@iAmMadeOfSoup trust me, the cat would let him know if it bothered her.😂😂 she wouldnt just sleep through it.😂😂
Hilarious!!!🤣🤣🤣
@@iAmMadeOfSoup oh stop, if she didn't like it, she'd move or run!Also, you should probably change your page name, lol!
@@taylor8932 if you knew cats body language, you’ll know that her wagging her tail meant she didn’t like it at all. Just Bc she’s TOLERANT of it does not mean it’s okay to make a cat feel that way. Boundaries.
Tortilla Talk question: What was the gift you gave Eric to pass on to Wesley when he's older? Maisie's pearl neckless was so cute! You got the cutest twins colleen!!!!😊
Im thinking it has to be an Eric/Wes thing? I mean sure she did it with Maisie but Eric should come up with something to pass on.. or at least both of them.. idk why am i so triggered about you wanting her to give him something like that..
@@_sch_eme_ I’m pretty sure Colleen said she bought something but didn’t tell us because Erik had to open it on Christmas
@@BriannaLorraine she did
@@_sch_eme_ ??
@@yehaw385 ????
Can you just imagine in 2-3 years, all 3 babies singing the intro??
Flynn: I’m vlogging
Wesley: it’s boring
Maisy: I’m Colleen!!!
omg
that would be so adorable aw lol
i definitely notice a difference in you, you seem a lot happier and much calmer. lack of sleep would make anyone feel overwhelmed and emotional, i think you’ll feel a lot better once you guys get a routine down and the babies get a little older. you’re doing a great job, colleen 💗
Advice from a person who is in a relationship with a man who has a twin sister:
My partner and his twin sister are very different. However, when they were younger, his parents always celebrated their bdays together. Once the twins got to be around 5th grade they hated that because they were so different. Here’s how their parents dealt with that. Their birthday was on sept 13th, so, on the 11th, they would celebrate one twin and give them a special day (and they were allowed to have their specific friends over). Then, on the 12th, they would give the other twin their special day (with their specific friends if they wanted.) Than on the 13th (their actual bday), they would have a joint celebration with just family. This helped them feel like individuals, and do things they specifically wanted, but, also allowed them to celebrate being a twin, and together. They didn’t grow up with a lot of money, so typically they would each get one small gift, and then one joint large gift. Just thought I’d share.
Having twins who aren’t the same gender is always a challenge (from what I hear) but, it’s so special and amazing. You’re doing a great job, and you are such an amazing mama! ❤️ **Wesley and Masie are so adorable (so is Flynn) 🥰
wow this is such great insight!!
that is actually a great idea.
I have a twin brother abs my parents always treated us like normal sibling
i have a twin sister and i couldn't agree with this enough i absolutely hated sharing my birthday celebrations but when me and my sister where about 7 my mum and dad also decided to give us our own birthdays so we could express our individuality and personalities as we had completely different interests
I have a twin brother and I love the idea of treating twins as individuals and celebrating birthdays on different days. When we were little we had joint parties and as we got older they were separated like he gets the morning and I get afternoon.
For the genre thing, I like that my brother is a different gender just because we aren't categorized together as much. Same-gender twins are more likely to be considered as a "2-in-1" combo than twins of different genders (even though he and I are still treated as 1 joint person at times). I do get why different-sex twins can be hard.
I love how Flynn is still trying to distinguish between the twins and says “those guys” and “this one and that one” it’s so cute!!!
In regards to the feeding situation you talked about at the start, remember that you don't HAVE to do anything. If pumping milk to bottle feed them is working for you, that's great. If you get them able to breastfeed and it works for you, that's great too. The main thing is that your babies are happy and fed, and however you get that to happen is perfect. You're amazing Colleen, sending you and your family lots of love
Yes, fed is best ❤👶
Yes! This. All day, every day! *Fed is best.* Also, a happy mom has an easier time taking care of the little smooshie faced little cuties, so whatever works for you is going to be the best for your babes in the long run. So, if you are a formula feeder or a breast feeder-- *YOU ARE DOING GREAT, MOM!*
Years ago, I had a hard time with beginning breastfeeding (lactation consultants? YOU ROCK!) and made myself a nervous wreck to the point of exhaustion because I was (in hindsight needlessly, imo) so freaked out at the idea that I would have somehow failed my baby by not breastfeeding. Our lactation consultants suggested that if we decided to use formula, it might be easier for the baby (and me!) if the first bottle was fed by someone other than myself. My mom came over to help and I remember weeping like a faucet at the idea (gasp! Insert needless clutching of imaginary pearls here!) of my baby consuming food that was fine and healthy and nutritious but that didn't come from my body. Post partem hormones do be wreaking havoc on a person, you get me? In the end, we did overcome our hurdles and a successful breastfeeding journey continued for a long time. But you know what? Things would have been _fine_ either way. Again, fed is best.🤗
P.S. Yes, I am fully and totally aware of the benefits of breast milk. I am also fully and totally aware that the overall mental health of the baby's family has benefits too, and if formula feeds help that situation be optimal, then all is good. Love to all you Mamas, each and every one of you, no matter how you choose to feed your babies.💖
Agree, I had a hard time accepting this because I was a pumping momma, my son just preferred the bottle, but wanted to nurse so bad. I felt like I failed in a way which would cause me so much stress. Eventually, I just had to let go and let the baby be the boss.
I keep rewatching this vlog for the Flynn and his brudder and sistur moments. I cannot handle how adorable they are individually and together. So thankful your twins were home safe for Christmas!
When showing the toy: “That guy saw it.” That made me spit my coffee out! I love Flynn so much!
Loving the voiceovers by Kory recently. He's been nailing it lol.
Every time Flynn calls one of the twins “that guy” I literally want to bawl my eyes out, he’s so adorable 😫💞
hi colleen! as a twin, (i have a twin brother who is younger by 2 mins) i really love how you don’t compare your twins to each other or always try to make them the same. i’m sure it makes them feel special and like they have their own life and personality aside from their twin. keep up the great work colleen!!!!! 🤍
edit: omg thanks for all the likes!!!!!
I can’t wait to hear more of Koko narrating the twins lives
"Look brother and sister, I got a toy! It's a forklift!" OMG, that was *the* cutest thing I've ever seen! And the fact that Daisy was completely unfazed when Flynn put his toys on her! XD
As a twin myself, I have a suggestion for you. On their birthday, get them each their own cake! My sister and I always shared one until we were 13 or 14 and started requesting two small cakes instead of one big cake.
That’s really smart
My cousins always have had just one cake but it's always devided in half so both siblings get to choose decor and filling for their side. That works since both of them only like vanilla cake. One decore pair I remember was Mickey Mouse clubhouse and Pacman. My cousins are not twins but their birthdays are just one day apart so it's just more convenient to celebrate them together. If they want they can have their own parties for their friends.
Yes this! Also, since the twins came home on separate days, she could celebrate each of their coming home days with them individually - and actual birthdays can be together. They will share so much and it's super hard to get time alone/give them individualized attention it would be nice for each to have their own "day." I plan to do this with my twins as they get older - even though they came home one day apart.
I’m a twin as well and we did this! Always made it more special! We’d have an ice cream cake and a regular cake and it was such a special memory!!
Tortilla Talk Question: What is your favorite twin product so far? You started to mention it in this video but got cut off by Maisy. ❤️😊
Yes I was going to comment this too! I’m curious lol
OMG thank you for answering my question! I have been silently watching your videos for years and this was my first time commenting so I'm totally fangirling rn LOL!! Yes I bet Flynn would LOVE Cars Land! I can't wait to see you guys take him, whenever that may be! It's so magical to see Disney through a child's eyes! :)
love ur channel
i watch ur videoss
Bruh I used to watch you
Omg I love your hp content, I heard her say your name and I immediately searched it up remembering you
I LOVE your Harry Potter videos!
The way she says “I’ll see you….someday” was so funny. I appreciate that. She just like I’ll vlog when I can. 🤷🏼♀️ 😂
Tortilla talk comment: this goes out to all the people out there who have had to spend any time in a hospital and especially to you Colleen. As someone who lived in the hospital for three months fighting a chronic illness, I know that just being there can make you feel depressed and helpless, the experience can be like a scar. The feelings you had when you were there can last a long time even after it’s over but eventually you will feel yourself again. You are so strong Colleen, you got this!
IM SO HAPPY YOU KNOW SCOTCH AND VODKA THEY ARE GREAT LITTLE BABIES! You gotta get your twins to start making their own bottles, use their videos to teach them!
the girls that get it get it 😭👏🏾
Exactly! Then they can just leave the twins at home to go to Disneyland. They won’t even need anyone to watch them.
yess! snapchat and vine!
@Julianne Pierre 😔okay but i wanna get it with the girls too
Is that their real names
oh my gosh!! the "look brother and sister, i got a forklift! Hi cutie bug!" Absolutely MELTED MY HEART too precious for his world. 💗💗
Tortilla talk question: Since the twins’ due date has officially passed, how have things changed? You mentioned that the twins haven’t really been acting like newborns because they were born premature. Has their behavior changed at all? Also, how are you adjusting to having both the twins home? Sending lots of love❤️
I was wondering too so thanks for asking her!
Flyn showing them his toy and saying” look brother and sister I got at toy”;is quite literally the cutest thing I’ve ever seen
I love how Daisy is just SITTING there while Flynn is pilling toys onto her 😭 Love Daisy.
I like when Flynn refers to the babies as “those guys” or “that guy”
As a mommy with a career, I felt the same way. I absolutely loved and still love being a mommy however, I love my career as well. I’m a nurse practitioner and took 6 months off to care for my babies but eventually knew I wanted to return to work. Prior to the babies, my job is what identified me and I missed it. Some people are born to be full time mommy’s and I give them so much credit but me returning to work just 3 days a week was a blessing and definitely made me a better mommy. As my therapist said, “just because you became a mommy, doesn’t mean you still can’t be you”.
The way Flynn keeps calling the twins “those guys” is cracking me up! What a sweet older brother, the twins are so lucky!!
Thank you for being so honest, it helps to know that the feelings we sometimes feel as a mother is totally normal
I’m still so so happy the twins are home ❤️ also when Flynn was saying “your a cutie bug” MADE MY HEART MELT!
“Hi cutie BOge”
Tortilla talk question: Is it hard for Flynn to stay quiet when the babies are napping? I know sometimes he gets excited and enjoys dance parties. Are there times you have to tell him to wait awhile because the babies are sleeping?
One of my granddaughters was a NICU baby and her older sister was allowed to be loud because the baby was used to the noise of the NICU. She’s 3 now and can still sleep through anything.
@@annajosullivan Yeah. We try to be quiet around sleeping kids and sometimes i get surprised by what kids can sleep through. Loud sneeze or someone dropping something. Seconds of panic. Just to realize that baby totally ignored it 😆
You’d be surprised how well some babies sleep when they have older siblings! I work with infants and toddlers and most of them can sleep through anything, babies could be screaming bloody murder and they’re fast asleep 🤣
@@kaylee1769 I agree! I worked in an infant room at a daycare and you could totally tell which babies had older siblings and which ones didn’t😂
In my experience I always sleep my baby in the living room with either the radio or music on so she doesn’t wake up easily.
Daisy wasn’t sleeping, Colleen - she was LIVING! 😂 Just enjoying her human brother’s attention. So adorable! 🥰🐱
Tortilla talk: You said the twins don’t look anything alike, do you think either of them look like Flynn as a baby? What about you and Erik as babies? I’d love to see comparison pictures! You’re such a fabulous mama!
Flynn is the cutest and sweetest thing I have ever seen. I am bawling right now with tears of joy. You have such an adorable family and Flynn is going to protect them so much!!
Congratulations once again!!!
Tortilla talk question: do you ever get noticed in public? if so, how does flynn react to a stranger asking for a picture? ❤❤ love u
Real question does she go in public???
Love the question
Did you comment this in her last videod
I saw Tim at Ralph’s on Christmas!
i honestly think she would get recognized if she went to public places but as far as the vlogs know she doesn’t really go out
Flynn saying “your a cutie bug” was so cute he sounds just like you Colleen
for tortilla talk: i am a fraternal twin and i totally get the "your twin is your built in bff!!" and stuff like that but PLEASE don't force anything or always make them do stuff together. from my experience being a twin, it is sometimes hard to break out of the mould and be individualistic. of course if they ask for matching outfits and to do stuff together then don't discourage them, but please don't force the narrative that all twins must get along all the time simply because they're twins. thanks for reading xx
I grew up with a couple pairs of twins and this is very good advice. It's one thing to match them up as newborn's/toddlers, but when they get older I think you can start to tell if they're into it or not. One of the pairs of twins I grew up with were put in different classes in elementary because they didn't want to be associated as twins (they wanted to be individuals and viewed that way) while another set of twins (I was closer to them in middle/high school) took as many classes together as they could and very legitimately were each other's BFF. Like, neither of them had a "best friend", that person was each other. Im sure as they get older Colleen and Eric will adjust/adapt as the twins are able to form their bond and make it known what their relationship with each other is like.
Flynn interacting with his siblings is the most precious thing I have ever watched ❤️
I love how well Flynn adapted to the babies. I love watching him sit and talk to them and kiss them♥
flynn singing “that’s just my baby tail” made me actually laugh out loud haha
I was giggling so much as Flynn piles all those trucks on the cat haha. She's so chill!
My brother and I were cracking up and Flynn and Daisy 😂😂 she’s a special, lovely cat for sure. I can’t wait for the twins to get to know her and Gus too 🥰
I’m so excited to watch as the twins become more aware and more interactive with Flynn!! I’m so beyond happy for you and your fam!
You are such a good mom and I cannot wait to see your kids grow up to be good people like you
Flynn calling the twins “That guy” and “cutie bug” is melting my heart
Hey Colleen, as a premie twin myself (that was in the NICU for 2 weeks) I also love having those separate pictures to look back on. But my advice for you is to not always dress the Wes and Maisy alike, obviously when they are babies and even toddlers then it's fine but my mom let my twin and I have our own style and we only ever dress alike when we want to, this not only helped us grow into a style of our own, but also helps people tell us apart. And now we have very different styles! I'm NOT saying that you shouldn't live out your Mary-Kate and Ashley dreams with the twins dressing alike, bit I've always appreciated the fact that my parents never forced us to dress alike once we were older like (5ish and up). (I'm not trying to tell you how to parent because you are an AMAZING mom, and I see that they aren't always dressed alike) Its just a tip. Also I love your vlogs and videos and what you stand for, Love you Colleen (I hope you see this)
“Dress the Wes”-that’s fun to say! 🤪
This is such a nice comment :)
I agree with this! Individuality is important in multiples because we get paired together so frequently
@@christinestachnik8008 lol yes it is, I didn't mean to say dress the Wes but it's fun isn't it
@@stephanie3469 thank you, I'm glad you like it, it is just advice I want to give. I hope Colleen sees it

Tortilla Talk Question: I've heard that women's singing voices change during pregnancy and sometimes they change permanently. Have you noticed any changes in your voice like notes that you couldn't hit before but can hit now? Also do you think you'll involve your kids in doing theatre once they get older or when the pandemic dies down?
My aunty had a baby a couple yeaes ago and her voice changed permanently. I'm pretty sure it doesn't happen to all women though.
A few helpful things I’ve heard about getting babies to wean off bottle back to breast is to give them like half the bottle so they aren’t starving and frantic then try switching to breast. Also to just like take a day where you just dedicate most of your time to having loads of skin to skin and free boob access time so they can snack on it, again this avoids the frantic hunger that has no patience for boobs - it can be really hard getting them to switch back over and pumping to feed is so time consuming and taxing there’s not shame in adding formula in when needed ❤️❤️
I have never seen a cat so chilled like Daisy! I laughed so much with all the toys that Flynn puts on her. I also love the cutest moments with the siblings. So heartwarming!
It isn’t funny. It is sad. That is not how you treat a family pet.
Flynn saying " you lil cutie bogs" in an accent completes me🥰🥰
Colleen.. You are doing such a beautiful job! Flynn is such an amazing big brother. You are such an inspiration. Thank you for sharing these sweet moments with us. 🥺❤️
Video Idea: Erik vlogs for a day!
(if he's comfortable of course!)
it would be very interesting to see his daily activities. even if you guys have a similar schedule it would be intriguing to see it from Eriks perspective. Respectfully, I am in love with Erik

When Flynn was putting a bunch of his toys on Daisy and she was just chilling there I laughed way to hard 😂 Daisy is literally a mood and I’m here for it 🙌🏻
Every time I see Flynn he makes me so happy! I love that he loves his siblings and family so much! And Daisy is the best cat in the world with your son. If I tried doing that with my cats they would have zoomed to the other room. That's so funny you mentioned Miranda today because I was just thinking of a Tortilla talk question and going to ask about Miranda and when you would think of bringing her back. Literally, no rush, and please take all the time you need with the babies and Flynn and family and most importantly yourself! I love you so much and I hope you have a great rest of your holidays.
Tortilla talk: how's your babysitter? Is she coming finally? How you go along?
Lack of sleep is a HUGE mood factor. Once you will have better sleep, things will be much better. You have amazing family, is a relief to watch you guys.
I love the way that Flynn said "Hi Brother".😍💙
Tortilla talk: now that you can see their cute faces everyday who in your family do you think they resemble the most? I think Maisy looks exactly like erik, and Wesley is just his own person haha
Maisy definitely is a mini Colleen
Wesley looks so much like Erik
Maisy looks like Kory 😱 🤣
wesley looks like duncan
@@yarlinthais I agree, Wesley looks such like Ballinger boy babies! 🥰
The babies are SO DAMN CUTE. Colleen you are such a wonderful mom. Thank you for sharing everything you have over the last few weeks. Its lovely to see how happy you are with the twins and the sounds they make are so precious
Flynn talking to the babies is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen! (Plus Kory- keep doing the voiceovers on the babies, so funny!)
Omg Flynn is so adorable my new favorite quote is: heiiyy cootie boog heyyyyyyy coottie booooggggg
Awwwww Flynn, you are so caring. Hugs to you!! 🤗❤️
"The woman was too stunned to speak" 🤣🤣 Kory cracks me up 🤣🤣
It’s adorable how Flynn hasn’t learnt their names so he makes up his own names
He did say Maisy and Wesley in a different one but I find it so cute how he had little names for them! The best big brother’
He’s 3 he knows their names! Probably just likes giving them nicknames 😊
When Flynn looked at the camera and said “that’s just my baby tail” he looked just like Erik 😭
omg i noticed that too
TORTILLA TALK: also, I think this is really cool: I am a twin, and have an older brother who is three years older than me and so seeing flynn interacting with the twins is so interesting to me because it makes me think of my brother, who is grown up and moved out now, and how he might have been because I've heard stories of him being obsessed with me and my twin. its special to see their relationship and will be cool to see how they grow together! and I love the similarities between your story and mine!! thank you so much
Flynn loving on the twins has my heart melting, he’s such a great big brother
I'm sure I'll edit this after I watch the vlog but can I just say what a Christmas miracle!!! Youare a phenomenal mama and provide us with so much inspiration and we are so grateful for you Colleen and Erik!! You are heros in my humble opinion and I'm so grateful to be apart of your journey! Thank you for everything you do!
As a single mom of 4 grown kids. (No twins lol) I did something that my girls have all loved as they turned 18. I started an email for each of them and have been sending the letters, photos etc each month until 18. They all still have those emails and LOVE looking back at their childhood that way. Good luck and you do have the strength even if it doesn't feel like it now
That's a great idea! I think I'll do this with my son, thanks!
Omg such a cool idea!!!
Flynn's gentleness to his twinlings really warms my heart. And the Lucy mountain of trucks was hysterical 🤣 thank you for sharing them with us.
I love seeing the reality of being a twin mom when you were feeding Maizey and Wes started crying. Man you’re a super mama! So proud of you!
Awww I love Flynn when he sings with the cat he’s so cute bless him ❤️❤️
FED IS BEST! Loving the flexibility in your feeding methods, you’re a freaking champ mama! sending love and strength for this upcoming year! ❤️
