    LOLLLL PICTURING BABY SLOAN GROWLING AT PEOPLE IM DYING 😂😂😂😂

      Haha. That so reminded me- when my kid was little, we had baby monitors throughout our house so we could hear him when we’d lay him down for a nap. I told my husband “that’s be so sweet if we heard him blowing kisses through the monitor” (because we always blew kisses to our little boy). Nah. We got demon growls through the monitor. It would randomly scare the fck out of us lol. Quiet house and then all of a sudden “GRRRRRRRRR” 😂😂😂

      That's what I was coming to say. Sloan is like the actual exact replica of his parents mashed up. You don't always see that. He's his father on top and momma on bottom. Copy&Paste

    • @JustJ-Me
      @JustJ-Me Před 25 dny +9

      The eyes and some of Dad's expressions... I'm guessing the amazing hair/curls come from Mom. Love the parents❣️ They're so sweet. These stories are great. I wish I had grandparents who are still alive and wish I could've asked my mom more questions while she was alive.
      It's so fortunate that they were able to do this and have it on video.

    What a delightful family. In the ‘80’s and 90’s it was the norm and expected that moms would work and kids went to daycare and often wound up being latchkey kids. Your parents decision for your mom to stay home was quite a sacrifice and absolutely the best decision (in my opinion) for children. It’s so nice to see a loving and close knit family, you are blessed to have them and they are blessed to have you. ❤️❤️❤️
