Also, like this video. It really supports my channel, and it’s also helpful to see which videos you are enjoying and want to see more of. - Jak na to + styl
The blue thing is a card holder for the back of your phone, and the little pop up is a stand/finger rest (kind of like a pop socket). Also, Evonnie is your little shadow...so cute!
I had another mom once tell me that, "Some days you're on and some days you're not and both are okay." It was life changing.
I think showing us the good and the not-so-good is really healthy. I think we all can get too caught up in presenting perfection. You're doing so great, keep it up!
I'm not a mum, a mennonite or religious at all in fact, but I'm in awe of your beautiful family. It's incredible to see how hard you work and the way you're raising your kids. Definite inspiration for the day I do have my own family! I'd love to see a video on parenting tips/your parenting style and how you and your husband differ :)
Two under 2 is hard. Mine are 13 months apart and I have just learned to accept that there will be crying. Sometimes there will be lots of crying. Deep breathes. You got this.
Having two kids is tough, especially when you’re alone and they are in meltdown mode. I think we can all say we’ve cried along with our little ones during those moments. You’re doing great!
You are blessed to live in Lancaster, PA. If you left a child outside in Massachusetts, the Department of Social Services would take them away and you would have to fight to get them back. You are still living the lifestyle of the 50s - so HEALTHY. Not everyone can. I had someone stop in front of my house because I had my DOG on a leash (in the shade) in front of my house. They were concerned he was abused and abandoned and I heard them talking about maybe grabbing him as I walked outside after noticing them. Crazy in some states.
I had 2 under 2 also, and my hubby drives truck, so it was all me all week. Yes, you are allowed to be emotional. You just had a baby 3 months ago, you will have those days. And it's ok.
God's got you, rest in Him
I would highly recommend splurging and getting the bed bug mattress and pillow protectors for your Airbnb. We always feel better going to a place with those and it will also protect the mattress and pillows from all kinds of things. The bugs are becoming more prevalent in hotels and it’s really hard to get rid of them.
Bed bugs dont just live in the bed. They go everywhere but come out at night to feed on humans.
Thank you for sharing real life. So many of my days feel this way - the highs and the lows! It’s good to see another mom experiencing it too.
Loved all the new things for your new home!🤗 When my little girl was five months old my husband got a night time job (12 hour shift) so it seemed he slept all day, got up and ate then worked all night just to come home, eat and go back to bed. We lived an hour away from his job so the commute cut into home time as well. I cried a lot during that time. I had to really guard my heart during that time against becoming bitter at my husband. I had to remember it wasn't his fault and he was doing his best for our family. He worked at that job for almost two years. He finally got his dream job right after that! It was so much better. My little girl isn't so little anymore (she is four). When I look back, I am so glad I didn't let circumstances damage what mattered most~our relationship. Circumstances change, relationships continue on. Megan, you are a super mom!💜😘
Bless you, my friend! You're doing a great job! And you're going through a lot of stressful stuff right now. Just keep on hanging in there. It's going to be okay. Praying for you!
You are so precious and encouraging!! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful family with us and hang in there! You seem to handle things with such grace! Keep smiling 😊
Love the long video. You are amazing how you “mom”. Thank you for being real and raw and sharing your beautiful life with us!
Really enjoyed this video. Amazed how you set up all those shots with 2 kids around! Great job!
Thanks for keeping it real, Megan. There's a special place in my heart for all the moms "in the trenches". Every blessing on your move.
Loved this video. So real life, and there’s so much going on in yours right now! Sending you a big hug from Michigan🙋🏻♀️
I am so thankful for channels like yours. You are so humble, so encouraging, and so refreshing to watch in this era of 'more is more.' Blessings to you and your family.
God bless you Momma, you are doing an awesome job! My heart went out to you when you were sitting on the porch and sharing. I appreciate your honesty and every mother understands and can relate. ❤👍
You are doing an amazing job Megan! Love your channel and appreciate all of the hard work that you put into CZcams to make videos for us to enjoy. Thank you and May God Bless.
It's so nice that you have all this video of your little ones and these ordinary moments. Hang in there...your children are so precious, and you're so good with them! You really are blessed! Thanks for sharing. My kids are grown, but following you brings back great memories.
It’s okay to cry. Enjoyed the honesty.
I'm so glad I found you! You feel like a big sister already. Thanks for being transparent!
Thank you for being real. Being a Mom is hard work! Appreciate your honesty.
Blessings to you! Parenting IS so hard and I love watching your videos, you are an awesome mama! I have four kiddos - 6.5, 4.5, 2.5, and 14 months! I so relate to your "every emotion under the sun" comment! When Daddy has to work late life is crazy and it's okay to cry right along with the babies! ♥️
Three under five with two of them under two! We have. 4 year old and 1.5 year old and a 4 wk old and I feel you. Days can be hard but we are so blessed! You are allowed to have bad moments. I just tell myself tomorrow is a brand new day, Lord willing!
You’ve got this momma!! Much love!❤️
The sticky thing sticks to your self phone. Your kids are just the cutest. Love your Bed frame. Love how you made a baby carrier with the sheet.
*I love this day in the life Megan, it's so real ❤ ️ keep up the great work. I take care of my kids by myself everyday because my hubby works so I can stay home. It's very hard at times but I am so grateful to be able to watch my little ones milestones and grow. Can't wait until we can collaborate together ❤️*
What a great way to see things and stay positive. I have 3 under 4. A son who’s 4 and twin girls who are two. I am blessed to have beautiful, happy and healthy kids. Even know they stress me out a lot of the time.😊 I really want to think the way you do. Thanks for sharing.
This was one of my favourite videos of yours Megan and thank you so much for not cutting out the struggles. So many people see others and compare themselves the the small snippets they see and feel unworthy when they don’t measure up. Encouraging others is so important these days. Love you videos and your family and the values and faith you are sharing ❤️🙏
I'm glad I see other moms struggel too.... I have 3 kids (with 2 on the spectrum); 6,5 en 2 and some days are really hard and some days we are just rollin' along and everything is good. Today is a struggle, but I'm feeling encouraged by your vlog! Just hang in there!
I had 4 children under 5, Now the youngest just turned 4 year old,those days were hard, but no scholars, Now with 2 in school I look back and realize those were my best days, I had days like yours, hubby works late, then maybe went to help a farmer till dark, it's totally normal to cry, be filled with emotions, many of us have been there, just know it gets better
Megan you got the most important thing done, taking care of the little ones. Speaking from experience, all the things eventually get done . Our children remember all the books and bubbles, keep up the good work.
Hello Megan, love all your videos but esp these two videos on so many levels. Glad to see you swaddle your baby, include and encourage your daughter to help around the house, also her seeing you be a mommie and doing every day life to learn. So awesome you walk and play ground with them a change of scenery, release energy, and bonding. Thank you for sharing your life and your transparency. Keep up the good work.
Also thanks for posting where you get your veils.
Thank you for sharing this video! Love your honesty 💜 I’m a military wife with 3, 4 and under (all 20 months apart) so I can totally relate! Love your videos so much!
You got a lot done in one day! I know u feel like you didnt... But u did. Props to u!! U inspire me... seriously!
Just discovered your channel today...binge watching :) I love it...your kids are adorable and you're a terrific mum !
That black and white skirt would make a super cute pillow!
Evenings when daddy works late are the worst!!!! I can't figure it out either🤷♀️
That ending was so encouraging to me. I have three kids under 9. May our Father strengthen you dear Megan. He is so good to us!
I used to be a homemaker and mum when my kids were little. And it is a full time job. I loved it with all time together but it was hard work. I remember days also when I were so tired and cried.. I like to follow you and your family. God bless you!
Love your REALNESS in this vlog ....best part was hearing you say your husband was home and putting your baby girl to bed .....#YourBlessed
I think you are doing fantastic...just being with each other, hugging & loving on one another & sometimes crying together...it's all a sweet balance🌊
MEGAN THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT YOU ARE STARTING A NEW CHAPTER AND THAT IS EXCITING AND WITH NEW IDEAS.
BONUS: YOUR A CAN DO WOMAN!!
Love the video💕You got this Mama Your doing a great Job!!😘
Loved watching! You helped entertain me while doing slush ! This video and your Q&A!!
Motherhood has been the biggest catalyst in my life for transforming my heart into Christlikeness. It's not easy. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for being so open and honest. I also found evenings my husband was working the worst time with our children. Maybe they missed their Daddy and couldn't express it? Take some time for yourself-to breathe and regroup and pray! I am hoping you have some help with your packing and moving...and don't be afraid to ask for help! That was a huge part of my problem...I felt I had to to it all and do it myself...it is TOTALLY okay to say...I feel overwhelmed...I need some help!
Thanks for being so honest and emotionally vulnerable on camera.
You are doing an amazing job, Megan. Thank you for being so open and honest! When my two were babies, I used to call 5:00pm - 6:00pm "The Witching Hour" because everyone was just unhappy and cranky no matter what I tried. Actually, they're 7 and 3 now and they still have a witching hour many days! Side note--Evonnie's hair color is so gorgeous!
You are such a sweet mother and everything about this vlog touched my heart. My four children were born over twenty years... Three in four and a half years then my little one was born twenty years and two days after my eldest. So I'm sort of doing motherhood twice over! I've had so many of 'those' days of feeling all the emotions. ❤️
At one point i was a single Mom of three going through a divorce, it’s tough but we all have bad days. You are allowed to have them. 😊
Can’t wait to see your new house decorated! You have such great style.
Evonnie is adorable the way she wants to help you so much.
I love your transparency, I have 8 at home ( 5 grown) and several have special needs. I have days where I just need a good cry here and there ! :)
Thanks for being real Megan!
You are such a “natural mom”, your kids are so calm, happy, cute and obviously smart - thanks to you and Josh and your parenting style. I love that your daughter said “thank you” to you without being prompted, like some children. You guys are a practical couple. Good job!
Your babies are soooooo adorable! Fletcher is growing like a weed and Evonnie is so petite, cute! Good luck with your account, pretty clothes like those should sell well. Can't wait to see your new home, xo
Megan, I think you and your family are beautiful. Just go into your day with love....things happen. I take it day to day....my husband passed away 2 years ago but it feels like yesterday. You just have to go on. Thank you for sharing your day.
🍃Your babies seem so content, I love your routine🍃
It’s so nice to see a refreshing real day in the life. I have a one year old and my husband works nine hours away usually for a month or two at a time and it can be exhausting.
I have five kids. Four under four has just been graduated from last month. I’m a single mum and it is really encouraging knowing that you struggle too sometimes. I love watching you for inspiration as you usually seem so motivated and together. I felt so encouraged to know that it’s ok and other people have tough days too- even bubbly, productive people like yourself. Be blessed. Thank you for your honesty. Good luck with your move
Being a mom is hard job but being at a stay at home mom. Wow no words to explain. You are doing great!!! Enjoy the moments because they will be teenagers and then out of your house before you know it. My oldest daughter (17) just graduated in May and is leaving in a few weeks for college. My youngest daughter (15) is at the age. She is focused on friends. It has been such emotional time for me.
When you feel overwhelmed just take a minute to pray and ask God for strength(not patience). Oh and take a few deep breaths. Tomorrow is a new day!!!
The blue thing sticks to your cellphone on the back and you could stand up your cellphone.
Fletcher looks adorable and Evanie (sorry if I misspell her name) too. May the Lord continued blessing your family. Thanks, Megan.
I remember the emotional roller coaster well.
I only had one child, but occasionally the enormity of responsibility for another human being would smack me in the head, kinda like Evani (spelling?) lol!
It would get scary, but it never lasted too long and then I’d feel fine again.
Mom’s have so much responsibility and, by nature, we’re emotional beings, so they can tend to run the gamut.
You are a great mom with two of the cutest babies ever!
That Fletcher is a little butterball and growing so fast!
Hang in there, momma!
It all works out😘
God Bless🙏
The blue this goes on the back of your phone to hold credit cards and the floppy things are like a popsocket to hold while using your phone or to prop up. 😀
Your doing just fine as a Mom, wife, etc. God bless you.
Could you possibly do a video on your budgeting? Especially with your new house and on one income!
I think the blue thing is a stick on cup holder for your car.
Thoroughly enjoying your videos. My eldest daughter has a three year old and one year old twins, so yep I know some days are tough but so worth it! Thanks for sharing.
Great vlog, really enjoyed this one! You doing a great job at being a momma👍😊🌻
I had 3 kids under 28 months...it was a little rough! We also farm, but I didn't grow up on a farm, so it was a lot at one time in my life. Now my oldest just graduated high school and the other two are right behind. Every stage has its challenges and its rewards. I think your self pop talk is a great perspective. There is ALWAYS someone who has it worse, so enjoy what you have. You are doing a great job and I can't wait to see the new home!
Amazing!!!! Thanks for showing us ur and ur kids day!!!!!✌🏻🌼🌼🌼
Evonnie is such a cute little helper 💜...wasn't Fletcher just born? 😊 He's absolutely adorable & catching up to Evonnie at record speed 💙 Thank you for sharing, especially during such a busy time in your lives.
Loving my #PACountryLife too!
For your low neck clothing try a thin tank top underneath. Can even turn tank top around so the back is in front for more modesty.
I use the Lumi glotion and it is amazing. It's kind of like a tinted moisturizer and highlighter in one. It has just enough shine and reflection to even out the skin tone without looking like makeup.
love your videos!
God bless you,sweet one. Your doing a great job.!!❤
you're a great mom, we have feelings for a reason and it's ok to show them. I was a single mom of 2 but 4 1/2 years apart, now they are 37 and 32! One day at a time! Lots of players and family members are how l made it. Now the extra fun... grandsons!!!
You seem to be the sweetest mom...every mom gets overwhelmed! I am on my own with two teenagers. This is the last "first day of school" for me to send off two kids! The oldest will be in college next year, so it will be just me and my son, entering into high school. next year. From my standpoint...enjoy every single second!! Our children grow up in a blink of an eye...you will wonder where the time went someday!! (Doesnt mean they dont learn how to drive you nuts some days tho LOL!!)
Bless you. You are a great MOM! Hugs!
I am a new subscriber and I just want to say I love your channel! Thank you so much for sharing your life. And your kiddos are adorable! I am definitely going to make those pumpkin cinnamon rolls for my husband!
The blue thing you mount on the back of your phone and it serves as a pocket for cards or cash, and I think the fold out part could work as a slap bracelet like things and you can keep your phone on your wrist!
Love your channel. Love your life. Good stuff on your channels. God bless.
When you asked what is it about kids and evenings, I’m with you. My toddler and I have evenings ... not sure what gets me through. Knowing I’m not a lone helps though.
We ‘stay-at-home’ moms can all relate. Trying to do the best for our children and keeping up with all the household tasks as well is not easy. I lost a lot of sleep in those years. What you are doing is worth it. Let those emotions flow. This too will pass. I have only two but I also had my grandsons for 10 years starting when the oldest was 2 and the youngest was 6 weeks. You can do this. One day at a time
Yay for your new house!
I love the part on the couch with the babies. This will be such a treasure for you one day!
A granny here my daughter has 1 yr old twins and new baby due in a month watching 2024. Megan you are a great mom and vlogger. Thanks for being real.
Love your videos! Inspiration for us mothers as well
I used duvette covers and matress/pillow protectors because everything is going to need to be stripped and washed more frequently than you can imagine. I also had double sets of linens and towels because its difficult to get them washed and the room cleaned and turned over when guests are booked back to back. A bnb has to be function over fashion. I was a superhostess so i learned a lot from experience over time. You will do great but there was a learning curve for me. Back to school time has "dorm specials" where you can get new sheet sets for cheap. God bless
Prayers for you. Yes, all moms have emotional moments.
I have 3 under 5 years.
I am mostly with the kids about 18hours a day usually.
It does get emotianly exausting at times (I really don't have help) but love my boys.
Thank you so much for letting us know even you cry sometimes and 'experience every emotion under the sun in 2-3 hours'. I only have a year-old son and wow, parenting is hard! You make it look so easy to have happy kids and a clean house. My house is never that clean and gorgeous and my son doesn't have near the schedule your kids do, well done Mama! It's nice to know I'm not the only one that gets negative. I'm so thankful for Godly husbands to keep us encouraged!
I thing that use to help me in the evening after our evening meals I would go for a short run and I found it was relaxing just to be a lone for a little while and it brought serenity because I had 4 kids there. One little girl that was my niece and a step daughter every 3 months and my new born son. He never gave me a full night’s sleep until he was 18 months old. During our younger years of raising children is wonderful to have and look back on the normal routine. I now have 2 beautiful grandchildren which brings me much joy. My husband isn’t well and I have some really hard times dealing with his illness. And it’s a new journey to walk through...
You’re doing great mama💗
10:31 It sticks to your phone/phone casing and holds business cards. The flippy part acts as a kickstand for when you want to watch movies or videos on your phone. 😊
The blue thing is a little wallet for the back of your phone! I have never seen one with a kickstand attached. That is pretty cool. I use one on my phone and now I don’t carry a purse around. 😀
"We're just going to sit here and do nothing". But time spent with your children IS something and something that builds good foundations for years to come! I had five sons in 7 years. Now they're 14- 21. Time goes by SO quickly. I know it feels like forever when you're in the thick of it. And the tears flow often. Now at 46 I'm pregnant with what they tell me is a girl! Feels like starting over for sure! I hardly remember how to do this. Keep an eternal focus!
You are so right, Marie! I am happy that some of my memories from early childhood include just sitting on my mother's lap and reading books or talking.
Congrats on the news of expecting a baby girl! I bet she's going to be treated like a princess by all those big brothers! :)
@@michellehasty1038 thank you! We all wonder what a girl will be like. :) Altho I have five younger sisters so I have a little trepidation. Lol.
The blue thing with the sticker behind it is a pocket for your cell phone. You stick it on the back of your cell. The snap thingy is to set you phone on its side to watch videos or movies or whatever
I raised two boys alone. They are grown now. It's very tough. You are a terrific mom. You are entitled to cry. You work hard.
Hang in, you are doing a great job. We all have those days. Praying for you!!!
