This was so helpful!! Thank you!!

My children can't have dairy and my son has a meat aversion so I am so glad I stumbled upon your page looking for a lunchbox review. You're helping many people with your videos, I'm sure! Congrats on being committed to health. I admire that in you and aspire to level up!
Do you know what contribute to his autism or ways to prevent?
Is the “fog” color more of a cool/blue grey, or a warm/yellow grey? I think this is the color I want, but it seems to change on video, I just can’t tell. 🤔
It’s a true grey. No blue undertones. If I had to choose before cool and warm I’d say warm but it does feel like a true grey ◡̈
@@ellenv.s.4913perfect! I was looking for a slightly warmer grey. Thank you! ❤
@@anxylum Perfect, I think you’ll like it then! ◡̈
My boys smells like a goat in the morning-I have just attributed it to him being on goat milk and he’s my first kid… but I guess it’s a normal baby thing lol
Thank you so much!!! I was going to buy bamboo plates for my kids but stainless sounds like a way better idea! I also love the compatible tops for Mason jars idea.
We still have the stainless steel trays and mason jar lids all these years later, they are handy!
I love the mini
Are there two mini versions? My mini looks a lot smaller 🤔
I’ve never heard of two mini versions- unless they came out with new bags!
Interesting point about the darker colors showing a light film? I like Graphite best but prefer leather straps so I’m also looking into Super Grey or Dusk. Trying to find video comparisons! And to anyone reading, no the larger backpack isn’t too big or weird to carry around daily. I’m super short and everyone wears them up in the PNW! Backpacks are the way to go.
Great video! I’ve been wanting one for awhile but my big hold up is picking the size! Would you be able to fit your phone in the outside zipper pocket of the mini, or is it too small?
It’s too small to fit a phone in the front zipper of the mini, it’s a pretty small pocket!
My kanken mini in no 2 mine was 130
I have been looking for videos that make a diy laundry detergent for cloth diapers , that have soft water ? What would you recommend ?

Just Right for You is a book we used to help us talk to our kid. I’ve been following you since our first kiddo was tiny and she was diagnosed autistic just before she turned 6. Honestly your videos have had me thinking about it for years but of course we didn’t manage to get a diagnosis for our super smart, gifted kid until 6. All the pediatricians ignored our concerns because she’s gifted too.
Thank you for the book rec, I’ll check it out. And thank you, that warms my heart that my videos helped in any way to put it on your radar. I understand how difficult it can be to get a diagnosis. I hope you’re all feeling well supported now ♥️
Pls help me..I have baby..I need diaper.im her in Philippines..hes boy 1year old and 4months.I have account in fb.thank you
Omg, your video absolutely inspiring me to decide, been so confused which colour will fit better because they have so many colours,same about the size and this colour definitely fit to every occasion, especially the classic size😍😍😍 can't wait to receive the bag soon🥰🥰🥰
Yay! Hope you love it!! :)
How did you keep your 9 month old asleep to dream feed? Mine would wake instantly
Must have just caught in a lucky time of sleep cycle 🤍
I’ve been debating now between the mini and classic bag 🤔 the mini is cute, I’m worried that the classic will look too big? I’m 5’5. But I do have other mini backpacks I can switch back and forth if I need to. The classic doesn’t look huge which I like! I’m glad to see someone else carrying a classic as an everyday bag
This was the perfect review, but I need help deciding on which size to get, I'm leaning towards the mini because I only ever carry around a hydro flask, a pen, my AirPods, and some other things so i cant decide on which to get! please help!
They are both great! If you know you don’t carry much, then the mini would be perfect. My son stopped using his, so I now use both lol. If I need to carry more or am going on a trip, I use the big one. My daily quick errand purse is the mini. I’d say if you’re leaning mini, then go mini!
I'm having a baby and I want to do cloth diapers but I've heard that they are very hard to get you to like put on your baby and all that what do you recommend
The only part that’s harder about cloth diapers is doing the laundry. It’s slightly more work than taking the dirty diapers out to the trash. (But then again you don’t have to worry about running out of diapers and needing to rush to the store!) Putting diapers on babies can be tricky if it’s cloth or disposable, depending on their age and how squirmy or active they are! I’d say give it a try! I loooooved cloth diapering, and I’d do it all over again in a heartbeat.
MMOs so thinking of going eco-friendly what would you recommend this is my first child and I'm kind of nervous but I do want to raise my child eco-friendly
Miss seeing your videos! Hope you and your family are doing well!
Thanks so much! My phone is ancient and out of storage, but when I get a new one, I have a couple video ideas :) Hope you’re well too 💜
The title is misleading. I thought you was a mom who has autism.
Hello, I loved your review. I wanted to know your opinion of which one do you recommend for a summer bag?
Hi! Sorry for the delay. I like the big one year round, but I also carry water with me, and have kids. Either works, just depends how much you tend to bring out and about with you :)
@@ellenv.s.4913 Thanks a lot :)
Your beautiful!!
The little white piece keeps falling off of mine!😣
Hello it's possibl for me? pee nigth and day ! very difficult the diapers industriels thanck you bye
Thank you so much for posting this video!! I am currently pregnant with my second fluff butt. My first fluff butt, I could not get flats down to save my life! Even my mom with cloth diapered me that way tried showing me. To no avail. This Joey fold I can finally do!!! I am now so confident I am going to Joey fold fst this baby as a newborn! From birth! So thank for for giving this Momma the knowledge she needed. 💝
I love flats! My favorites have been flannel homemade ones. Receiving blankets are a close 2nd.
This review really helped me feel more comfortable carrying my Kanken as an every day bag. I got self conscious of what people would think carrying a larger bag and seeing someone else say that they use it as an every day bag has really helped my overthinking brain. I'm switching over to that bag today!
Awesome! Thanks so much for the nice feedback. I still use it for my everyday bag, it’s just so useful, comfortable, and classic! Hope you enjoy using yours :)
I see you put the diaper on a teddy bear, I put disposable diapers on my plushie to make them look cuter.
100 years ago when they they had babies There were no pampers, and mothers breast, fed let her have mommy milk as long as she wants it momma.
so happy to see you posting! your cloth diaper videos are timeless....
So sweet, thank you!
Would a kids hydroflask fit in the water bottle pouch?
Yes! We have the 16oz coffee ones for the kids (same width as the hydro kids but no boot) and they fit. Just not leak proof :)
Did she pee thru it that night?
So none of the diapers are good. They are cloth diapers so changing more often is a must
Awesome review! The best review so far that actually compares how the backpack and mini look on a person. Thank you!
I appreciate the kind feedback :)
Thank you so much for putting the bag ON! I've been worried the classic might feel too big as an everyday bag so it's nice to see the size comparison with the bags on.
Glad it helped! :)
Love your videos. I'm also a vegan. I'm planning to purchase the launch one. Your ideas have given me some ideas on what to put on my container when I get my food.
That’s awesome, I hope you love it!
very brief and clear. thankyou
this video is so helpful thanks a lot 😁😁
I'm trying to determine if the big dipper would be suitable for soups. thanks!
They are leak proof, so yes! They are not insulated though, so controlling the temp would be something to consider. It’s a fairly small serving as well, but with other food it could make a nice side :)
Great to see you again! Totally agree w your "tips" 👍😊
Ellen!! Love both of your new videos. This is just the best life, right?? 🤪 glad to see your face on here. Sending you guys well wishes and we’re all in this together. That’s the saying, right?? Ugh! ❤️
Mindy!!! I miss you, I was hoping to hear from you. Yes, this is just a wild time of life. Hope your family is well, so great to hear from you 💜
Yay, so glad to see you back!
Thank you for your comment and for watching!🤍
Always good to see your updates!! Love this and the one from this evening :)
Thank you!!🤍
