I would never comment on someone's child, however, I know you guys had talked about it before. I have noticed the improvement lately. She's perfect no matter what
Chell IS growing up fast. Look at her long legs! Not only physically, but mentally. She is a sharp little cookie. I wish all children could have stay-at-home parents so that they had the benefits Chell does. I love how excited she gets when she looks out the window and sees people she loves coming to visit. Thank you for sharing her with us. Such an awesome family. ❤️💓❤️💓
Wow Kristen! Thank you for sharing the interesting information concerning air traffic controllers...I can't imagine the stress and responsibilities involved. I appreciate their hard work and dedication!! Chell is precious as always, sending love!! 🤗💟🐞
So glad you're getting Chell's little legs all straightened out. She's an adorable child and we all want the best for her. Sometimes that requires a little outside intervention.
Chell just brightens every gloomy stressful day. She's such a gem! I'm swarmed with exams these days. But looking at her having fun just made me feel so happy. Thanks!
Yes!🐥our little Darling is growing so fast!! I was watching an older Vlog just this morning as a matter of fact when y'all visited Grangie and Grark when she was 5 months old. She is absolutely beautiful and I can't wait to see her new little baby brother or sister!! Thank you Kristen for the Astros shout-out!! Our city deserved some good news after our life-changing weather event!! 😊💞🏑🐞
Brenda Hart Hello, dear friend. Very happy for the Astros! How are your neighbors/landlords doing in fixing up their homes after the flood? How are YOU doing? Sending love to TX!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Ms. Katie!!💘❤💓 So kind of you to ask, my landlords are enjoying new recliners and granite countertops instead of formica!! Good ol 1970's formica!🤣 KL and I are doing great on this Friday afternoon. Are you enjoying your new apartment? Did you finish unpacking yet? Lol boxes! Stay in touch and enjoy your 4 minute drive home!!😁🤗🏠💓🐞
Brenda Hart 😀I'm still unpacking. In fact, I made a trip to ikea to buy a couple drawer organizers and stuff. I love that place. I saw a man in the warehouse pushing his little boy in a BIG buggy/cart. The little guy was giggling like Chell. It was so fun to watch. So happy for your landlords. Recliners are awesome. My new place also has white granite countertops. I'm terrified I'm gonna stain them with grape juice or something. You and KL give each other a big hug from me. Have a great weekend.
This is why I love watching you guys, watching Chell grow. You guys have no idea how much you have helped me. Seeing you guys looking happy makes me look forward to my futur
Cory, my late dad love planes his entire life. When I was age 12 he built in our one car garage a Pete Bowers Flybaby plane. www.bowersflybaby.com/ I paint Snoopy on the fuselage and Woodstock on the planes tail. The fuselage was blue, wings and tail were yellow, stars on its wingtips. I have fond memories of that time in our lives. Stick to your dream, it'll happen!
Whatta great vlog .... Feels like we are a community of folks waiting for our kids to come running out of school. Just chatting about this and that experience and how we dealt with it... encouraging each other and ENJOYING what we have in common and also how we are different. Great feeling. Peaceful. Cory, you ARE the leader of the pack.
Another bow legs story. Grand daughter walked at ten months, and we called her a little cowgirl for ages. You could pass a soccer ball under her! Now shes a lovely twelve year old, with long straight legs. Once the diaper comes off, it seems to correct faster.
Cell is so tall Cory because you are tall. You will alway know when she is about to hit a growth spert when she eats and you can't fill her up and when she sleeps alot. Love you guys love watching Cell grow up
My toddler had one leg that was more bowed than the other and her pediatrician suggested that we put her in ice skating lessons. It forces the legs to point out rather than in. It worked great for us! Love you guys:)
Family reunions on this channel are awesome. So looking forward to it. And yeah, I was going to say the same thing. Bowlegs are not a big deal. It gets better with age. 97%ile on height and that too with BV bowed legs, she's gonna be TALL!!!
I'm glad you finally gave an update/reason to her bowed legs. Also glad they aren't concerned. People have jumped down my throat for asking, but the thing is, I work with kids, babies, and none of them had that issue, so I was genuinely concerned, but got yelled at for asking about it. I know it is better though, I can see the difference. Please keep her in shoes. She's gorgeous and I don't want her to have problems down the line as she grows. She's growing so fast, so my comments come out of concern and I'd really appreciate if people would back off when I show genuine concern. I was never rude about it. But other viewers were extremely rude to me.
OMG! Thank God you guys are okay!! That's so scary!! I've been in a serious 9 roll car accident and some close calls. I'm so happy you guys didn't get hurt. My heart stopped at the black screen with the screeching sounds.
Ive been a long time viewer, and ever since you had chell, it seems like every time i see a video, its like shes 7 yrs older each time. shes growing sooooooo fast!!! love you guys!
So glad to know about chell's legs. The nurse and me was concerned. She was so cute in the doctor's office playing with the paper. She's a very sweet little girl!
My youngest (born and raised in AK) had the same thing as Chell - he's 38 now and and Dr had told me the same, no braces. The thing that finally ended the turned in feet/bowed legs was when he learned to downhill ski in 6th grade. He ended up being a champion runner in high school and now climbs all the mountains. I loved seeing you guys at the air and space museum! :)
Cory, my dad obtained his Pilots Licence in his 40s. He had a night flying licence by his 50s. Sadly he passed away at 59... But I'll always have the memory of flying into the sunset over the sea with him. I can still see it now. Love to your family xx 🇬🇧
That car accident has happened to my dad when me and my younger brother were in the back seat really young. It was the exact same spot where my other family on my dad's side get into car accidents! So happy to be here! 💙👌
Am glad to hear you are keeping track of her legs, and growth. It really can help to correct problems quickly. Hey Kristen, love the bangs and hairstyle!!!cute!
I noticed her little bowlegs but also noticed that after y'all moved, it was starting to not be as pronounced. Her legs will be just fine! My little cousin had bowlegs and pigeon toes when she started walking, and the doctor put her in some special shoes for about a year. Of course, this was back in the 80s, I don't know what they do now. But I wouldn't worry too much about it, Chell will be just fine. She's really growing so much! It's such a joy to be able to watch her as she moves from being a toddler to being a kid! ♥ But OH MY GOSH. My heart DROPPED when you did the screeching brakes! No more jumpscares like that!!
EXCELLENT JOB CORY cause what you may have not thought of you just finished talking about Chelle's bowed legs. She was in the back seat with her legs toward that car. OH GOD was with you, (is) with you and GTA - Glad everyone is okay! We all have to be careful what we say! I've always WONDERED about Chelle's legs but you are so right it is improving FAST cause I have been away and I had not even noticed they had straightened THAT MUCH, wow it does correct itself, and the REASON I did not say anything is cause I had heard that doctors break them to fix it and I was NOT about to say something and some doctor say that mess.
I was waiting for the crunch when I heard that squealing noise. I lived above an busy af intersection for about five years. I learned by the sound of the crunch how bad the car accident is gonna be without having to look at it. Glad you guys are ok and you aren't hit.
Cory, thank God you guys are okay and that you were paying attention to the mirror and saw her heading for you in time!! You are awesome!!! Thanks for updating us on Chell's legs. I have noticed that they've started to look better, and also I'm awestruck at how fast she's been maturing. I think having other kids around has been great for her, as well as other adults. BTW in terms of the potty training, why not ask your pediatrician? She'll give you the best advice for Chell. (Just saying that many kids are unable to control their bladders until they're much older than Chell, so try not to pressure her.)
Haven't been to air and space museum there in a long time, but it is really neat. Glad you feel much better. Love watching every day. Can't wait to see what you do for dad hacks.
So glad you guys are ok! Definitely got a little nervous about the screeching tires and black screen. Way to go Cory for having quick puma-like reflexes!
I love this channel, makes me want to do all kinds of things with my nephew so he can have the same expressions of wonder and happiness as Chell. And Kristen looks so young with bangs!
Notice what Corey is doing at 10:09 . It makes me happy to see him open the door for her. My ADHD wants to write paragraphs about this, but I'll just say virtual high five for keeping it classy! Now to go listen to That Ain't Classy by Classified..
smallpaul is small Yes! I always make sure to thank guys when I’m out in public and I have the door held open for me. Always nice to have that chivalry still alive and well!
Glad you were able to avoid it. Car accidents are scary. My family and I were rear ended last month. The lady hit us so hard the impact knocked my glasses right off my face.
I think Cory's experience as a firefighter and such is better explanation than the GTA for Cory's reaction behind the wheel. A person who a about a month ago witness a fetal accident, the way the fire fighters and police officers talk about past accident and who they would have reacted, they learn from others on how to react to bad drivers!
Go Astros!!!! It was great!!! I’m glad y’all talked about Chell and her legs. I’ve been concerned about them since she started walking. I never thought about her potentially needing braces, and I’m so glad that she doesn’t need them. God’s continued blessings for your sweet family. 😊🕊🌈❤️
Potty training - when potty training stop using diapers. Only use pull ups at nap, bedtime and when going out in the car. Do a sticker chart- she gets 1 sticker for going tinkle and 2 for the 💩. Or you can use M&M's whatever will peak her interest. Every time you go potty have her sit on the potty. When the tires screeched my heart stop!! I was like OH NO!! Thank God you were able to avoid a collision.
One of our babies years ago we had to just do exercises thank heavens. I have seen the bars, but exercises worked. He was smaller though then Chell. I am glad you had her checked, I was worried but would not say anything. We look back and think how our first son was our practice child lol, he had to put up with us as new parents.
SO glad y'all are okay! Good reflexes Cory. Do whatever works for you guys for potty training. But if she's not ready it may be a one step forward one step backward for a while. My kids trained right around their 3rd birthday because they were ready then. I will say that pull-ups made it a longer process for my first. We just did straight to undies in a weekend for my second. Much easier.
I never actually noticed that's what Chell's legs were doing. I have always noticed how adorable she looks when walking, especially just in a diaper. It's just adorable and it makes me giggle a little because it's just stinking adorable!
Cory, you're right! I noticed Chell growing so fast lately! When you showed her legs in this vlog, explaining her bowleg thingy, I was like "Wait there are her legs!? They're so long!" My family is tall too. My great-grandma set the birth lenght record with 60-something cm (about 24 inch), and when my mum (who had already been a talk girl as well) went 14, she all of a sudden grew to 1,80 m (about 5'11") in a matter of weeks!
My daughter had bowed legs until she was 2 because she walked early. And don't force potty training babies don't have bladder muscle control until the age of three. Babies also will regress for a short time when a new baby comes into the family.
What are you talking about :D no control? Both my kids have been potty trained at 20months. I just took away their diapers and cleaned the floors for a few weeks and they underestood what was going on. We're three weeks into being potty trained with my son and he can tell me he needs to go and holds until he gets to a bathroom(that could be even 15min). Most kids in my country are potty trained before 24months, and parents who fail to do so are considered lazy or not interested enough (unless there is a medical reason, ofcourse).
It's great getting her into aviation. I am a pilot, I've had a daughter, and I can tell you that getting her into aviation at a young age is a great idea. My parents paid for my flight training, and used to say "it's cheaper than getting a lawyer." Aviation is a great career and I would recommend it to anyone.
"I know who's in the Super Bowl!" LMAO!! "Go Astros!" See, this is why I've loved Kristen from the get-go! :) Anyway, I'm glad that you guys are okay. That was a close call with the car. That, Cory, is what we call defensive driving. So three cheers for GTA for helping you. I've also noticed how much Chell has changed. She's such a beautiful and delightful little girl. Great vlog! Hugs from Houston with our World Series Title! (Sorry, I couldn't resist!)
I’ve got ten kids. I’ve had one kiddo potty train at 2, but everybody else was 3. Even if it was the day of their 3rd birthday, it took until 3 for them to “get it”. It didn’t matter how early I started, it’s always been that magic age. It caused us (me and kiddo) so much more stress than was necessary. If she doesn’t seem to get it really quickly, then you can always just hold off. It is no big deal. From my understanding, about her legs and walk, *most* children “walk funny”, and eventually grow out of it. Obviously, if they have a real health issue or deformity that’s different. But yeah... she’s perfect, and beautiful. :) You guys are awesome parents.
I had what was similar to a clubbed foot when I as a baby. No one knew there was a problem until I started to walk. The first doctor wanted to put me in a leg brace, so my parents got a second opinion. The 2nd doctor said it was just the muscles and put me in a show with a wedge in it. Fixed it right up!
My 3-year-old was so adamant about not going potty and then we just took a few days to JUST focus on potty training.... took us 2 weeks and she got it!
That place looks so awesome!! I know I had a friend who's son had to go into braces. BUT it was SUPER bad bow legs. And I believe it was before he even started walking.
You did great and prevented your family from getting hurt. I'm so glad you're all okay! Btw adrenaline is a great thing, it made me put my kneecap back in when it snapped out of place in January :D
My twin and I have bowed arms and legs since birth. It runs on my dads side. But it hasn’t stopped us. We did gymnastics and cheerleading since we were little and now we’re emergency medical responders for our town🙂🚑 (ps Chell is soooo cute!!!)
I was a very lazy mom. Toilet training just upset my son and upset me, so I just stopped. He trained himself just before he was three, he was ready. You have to choose your battles.. you know your child and know when she's ready, besides girls are easier to train than boys, so they say.
Theresa Carmen I don't know about that lol. I have a little girl, my friend has little boys. Her oldest boy picked it up early, and with no time at all. My little girl waited until she was nearly three. Her youngest, however, was older than three. It just depends on the kid.
I was born with retroverted hips, which made me look bowlegged. So it meant that my hips were not in the socket correctly, or that my hips were backwards. It was something I was born with and it took many doctors and xrays for someone to finally say that that was the problem when i was 5. I noticed in Chell that when she walks her feet point outwards, which is what mine did. I would just keep an eye out and if she has hip pain when she gets older it might want to be something to look into because it can deteriorate the bones and it is genetic. Yall are doin so great, I know it can be stressful to go to the doctors and not get a straight answer.
Potty training with the setup and routine you've developed looks really good. In the day of cloth diapers, my mom and I had a routine when I went #2 in the diaper: She would have me make an A shape with my legs ("Make an A, Ginny"), and she'd carefully slide the diaper off. We made a great team and rarely would she mess up my legs. I think that was my first precision activity, since I had to stand just right.
That end part when chell got stuck with a needle was so funny because I have a phobia of needles and that is literally what I’m like every time a needle is even in the room
If you guys ever get to Pensacola, Florida, stop at the Naval Aviation Museum. My kids love it and I do as well. So many things to look at and on certain days you can go to the rear of the property and watch the Blue Angels practice!
I noticed when my youngest son was 2 that one foot turned in so much that it actually caused him to fall a LOT and he wouldn't run like other kids. When I took him to his doctor, he actually dismissed me as being an over-reactive mom. Even though I was right about him being Special Needs a year earlier and he brushed me off then too. I asked his therapist about it and she arranged for a specialist who had special inserts made for his shoes. He now runs and plays and walks without falling like he used to, though he still falls, just not as much. Don't be afraid to seek another doctor if you KNOW you aren't being heard when it comes to your daughter.
How is Kristen feeling? I noticed that she looks a little depressed, even when she smiles, it doesn't seem authentic. A couple of people in my family suffer from depression and by observing them I can sense that. I just wonder if she is ok, I really hope so! Much love for all of you!
My son-in-law was so into flying, remote planes and other stuff and really wanted to take flying lessons! Well he did and guess what? He didn't like flying at all! So Cory, before you buy a plane, try taking flying lessons! Don't worry Chell's legs will get better as she grows! Have fun!
I've listened to air traffic control on Shanwich shortwave radio frequencies. It's fascinating to listen to but I'm sure it's a really demanding job. Especially on days when the radio reception isn't the greatest and they have to repeat things and have pilots repeat things. One false letter or number in a call sign or instruction...yikes! Good job and thanks, ATC!
My daughter had bowlegs, and she grew out of it by the time she was 2-3, she is 18 now.. I don't blame you Corey, I can't take hospitals, needles, tests, it makes my skin crawl and my heart race a million miles a second.
Good luck on the potty training. I wished I had some helpful tips. We tried lots of different potty training tips but my girls just wasn't interested. My girls was 3 when they finally became potty trained. Their pediatrician said that it was common for some children to potty train later than others.
Now that is something i always feel that something wtong with chell legs ... good as aresponsible parents you took it seriously and even explains it ..... good going ..
I'm happy you guys are safe! I was in a car accident about 20 years ago, very similar to your situation. Although the car behind us did indeed hit us and my dad swirved into the ditch trying not to hit the cars infront of us. The young man in the car behind us was fiddling with the radio so he didn't brake until it was too late. Thankfully no one got really injured apart from seatbelt bruises, both cars were totalled though. So... safety, seatbelts and GTA will save lives? :P
Whoa. If she ended up BESIDE you she would have hit you so hard. Oh my god. I'm so glad you got out of the way.
Victoria Farmer Yeah, no doubt. It was scary and just missed us by inches.
I'm glad you thought fast! I think those could be considered Dad reflexes of legend!
probably on her phone
Did she say anything to you?!
Thank God He protected you.
I would never comment on someone's child, however, I know you guys had talked about it before. I have noticed the improvement lately. She's perfect no matter what

That black screen with the car sounds almost gave me a stroke! Glad for gta
Neta McKinney me too, my heart stopped and I got so scared for them! I'm so glad they're ok and Cory has a good reaction time.
Chell is such a beautiful and caring little girl, you guys are doing good!
So glad you're getting Chell's little legs all straightened out. She's an adorable child and we all want the best for her. Sometimes that requires a little outside intervention.

Great driving reaction Corey! You just spared a lot of injuries and grief.
I can't get over just how adorable Chell is. She is so darn precious ❤
I'm so glad you all are enjoining Tulsa. Welcome!
Cory, it felt good because you were the HERO of the day! Good move.
So proud of the Astro’s!!!! Houston proud 👍🏼
Defensive driving, however one learns it, is a wonderful thing. Glad ya'll are safe.
Omg! I about had a heart attack when I heard the breaks squeel! I'm so glad you guys are ok! Excellent driving skills cory!
Cory, thank God you guys are okay and that you were paying attention to the mirror and saw her heading for you in time!! You are awesome!!!

Also I wanted to add that was a great job driving there! I certainly would feel very safe in a car with you!!
We won we won we won !!!!!!!!!!! Yay Astros. Love watching your family.
I was wondering what you meant by "Video games saved our families lives". I'm so happy that you didn't get hit! Great job Cory!
That last part was awesome. Love your family
WOOT WOOT our ASTROS WON!!!! I'm so excited for them.
Rigged to reward houston for the hurricane, no doubt...
tbb033 WOW 😮!!! Really??!!??!!?
Hope you enjoyed the Astros and Dodgers first ever Super Bowl! Hope they didn’t drop the puck and scored plenty of three pointers! 😜
shawna brown 😂😂😂
shawna brown lol, but they did manage to pull a few birdies out while the other team only hit gutter balls their rackets.
Hahaha....good one
lol!!!
All those powerbombs on the unpadded cement, that had to hurt!
I think Cory's experience as a firefighter and such is better explanation than the GTA for Cory's reaction behind the wheel. A person who a about a month ago witness a fetal accident, the way the fire fighters and police officers talk about past accident and who they would have reacted, they learn from others on how to react to bad drivers!
Go Astros!!!! It was great!!! I’m glad y’all talked about Chell and her legs. I’ve been concerned about them since she started walking. I never thought about her potentially needing braces, and I’m so glad that she doesn’t need them. God’s continued blessings for your sweet family. 😊🕊🌈❤️
Oh my god, thank goodness for video games! Cory you’re a boss, so happy you’re all okay.
You said no more broken people vids... so , you have done well. Stay save.. I do hope the lady learnd her lesson ...
Potty training - when potty training stop using diapers. Only use pull ups at nap, bedtime and when going out in the car. Do a sticker chart- she gets 1 sticker for going tinkle and 2 for the 💩. Or you can use M&M's whatever will peak her interest. Every time you go potty have her sit on the potty.
When the tires screeched my heart stop!! I was like OH NO!! Thank God you were able to avoid a collision.
So caffeine works like an adrenaline rush but harms your heart? No caffeine Cory - your family needs you!

One of our babies years ago we had to just do exercises thank heavens. I have seen the bars, but exercises worked. He was smaller though then Chell. I am glad you had her checked, I was worried but would not say anything. We look back and think how our first son was our practice child lol, he had to put up with us as new parents.
SO glad y'all are okay! Good reflexes Cory. Do whatever works for you guys for potty training. But if she's not ready it may be a one step forward one step backward for a while. My kids trained right around their 3rd birthday because they were ready then. I will say that pull-ups made it a longer process for my first. We just did straight to undies in a weekend for my second. Much easier.
I never actually noticed that's what Chell's legs were doing. I have always noticed how adorable she looks when walking, especially just in a diaper. It's just adorable and it makes me giggle a little because it's just stinking adorable!
Good job Cory saving your family!
Cory, you're right! I noticed Chell growing so fast lately! When you showed her legs in this vlog, explaining her bowleg thingy, I was like "Wait there are her legs!? They're so long!" My family is tall too. My great-grandma set the birth lenght record with 60-something cm (about 24 inch), and when my mum (who had already been a talk girl as well) went 14, she all of a sudden grew to 1,80 m (about 5'11") in a matter of weeks!
My daughter had bowed legs until she was 2 because she walked early. And don't force potty training babies don't have bladder muscle control until the age of three. Babies also will regress for a short time when a new baby comes into the family.
What are you talking about :D no control? Both my kids have been potty trained at 20months. I just took away their diapers and cleaned the floors for a few weeks and they underestood what was going on. We're three weeks into being potty trained with my son and he can tell me he needs to go and holds until he gets to a bathroom(that could be even 15min). Most kids in my country are potty trained before 24months, and parents who fail to do so are considered lazy or not interested enough (unless there is a medical reason, ofcourse).
Start saving now Cory! (for your plane) - I believe you'll get there - it's so you :) Chell is a lovely little girl x
It's great getting her into aviation. I am a pilot, I've had a daughter, and I can tell you that getting her into aviation at a young age is a great idea. My parents paid for my flight training, and used to say "it's cheaper than getting a lawyer." Aviation is a great career and I would recommend it to anyone.
Neither of my children potty trained before age 3. I just waited until they were ready to do it. Saved a lot of frustration.
"I know who's in the Super Bowl!" LMAO!! "Go Astros!" See, this is why I've loved Kristen from the get-go! :) Anyway, I'm glad that you guys are okay. That was a close call with the car. That, Cory, is what we call defensive driving. So three cheers for GTA for helping you. I've also noticed how much Chell has changed. She's such a beautiful and delightful little girl. Great vlog! Hugs from Houston with our World Series Title! (Sorry, I couldn't resist!)
thank god i was so worried about her little legs im happy your happy with the improvement with them and the doctor is too :D

I’ve got ten kids. I’ve had one kiddo potty train at 2, but everybody else was 3. Even if it was the day of their 3rd birthday, it took until 3 for them to “get it”. It didn’t matter how early I started, it’s always been that magic age. It caused us (me and kiddo) so much more stress than was necessary. If she doesn’t seem to get it really quickly, then you can always just hold off. It is no big deal. From my understanding, about her legs and walk, *most* children “walk funny”, and eventually grow out of it. Obviously, if they have a real health issue or deformity that’s different. But yeah... she’s perfect, and beautiful. :) You guys are awesome parents.
Jen L is too. Each of my 3 kids potty trained within the two week mark of their third bday (my son was almost 5, but he’s mentally adjusted to 3).
I had what was similar to a clubbed foot when I as a baby. No one knew there was a problem until I started to walk. The first doctor wanted to put me in a leg brace, so my parents got a second opinion. The 2nd doctor said it was just the muscles and put me in a show with a wedge in it. Fixed it right up!
Cory you have fangs! Lol never noticed that!
Omg I love that globe lawn ornament!
My 3-year-old was so adamant about not going potty and then we just took a few days to JUST focus on potty training.... took us 2 weeks and she got it!
That place looks so awesome!! I know I had a friend who's son had to go into braces. BUT it was SUPER bad bow legs. And I believe it was before he even started walking.
You did great and prevented your family from getting hurt. I'm so glad you're all okay! Btw adrenaline is a great thing, it made me put my kneecap back in when it snapped out of place in January :D
Super early!! Love watching you guys! Definitely do it Cory, I loved it when I piloted a plane at 13 and would love to get a get my licence! x
aww hi Chell and I love you and congrats Kristen and Cory on the new baby
Great driving Cory !!!
My twin and I have bowed arms and legs since birth. It runs on my dads side. But it hasn’t stopped us. We did gymnastics and cheerleading since we were little and now we’re emergency medical responders for our town🙂🚑 (ps Chell is soooo cute!!!)
I was a very lazy mom. Toilet training just upset my son and upset me, so I just stopped. He trained himself just before he was three, he was ready. You have to choose your battles.. you know your child and know when she's ready, besides girls are easier to train than boys, so they say.
Theresa Carmen I don't know about that lol. I have a little girl, my friend has little boys. Her oldest boy picked it up early, and with no time at all. My little girl waited until she was nearly three. Her youngest, however, was older than three. It just depends on the kid.
I was born with retroverted hips, which made me look bowlegged. So it meant that my hips were not in the socket correctly, or that my hips were backwards. It was something I was born with and it took many doctors and xrays for someone to finally say that that was the problem when i was 5. I noticed in Chell that when she walks her feet point outwards, which is what mine did. I would just keep an eye out and if she has hip pain when she gets older it might want to be something to look into because it can deteriorate the bones and it is genetic. Yall are doin so great, I know it can be stressful to go to the doctors and not get a straight answer.
So happy didn't get hit you good driver see you don't need that caffeine see your brain is working great you have a great day
Potty training with the setup and routine you've developed looks really good.
In the day of cloth diapers, my mom and I had a routine when I went #2 in the diaper:
She would have me make an A shape with my legs ("Make an A, Ginny"), and she'd carefully slide the diaper off. We made a great team and rarely would she mess up my legs. I think that was my first precision activity, since I had to stand just right.
That end part when chell got stuck with a needle was so funny because I have a phobia of needles and that is literally what I’m like every time a needle is even in the room
If you guys ever get to Pensacola, Florida, stop at the Naval Aviation Museum. My kids love it and I do as well. So many things to look at and on certain days you can go to the rear of the property and watch the Blue Angels practice!
Chell is so adorable. I can't believe how big she is. She's so big!
I noticed when my youngest son was 2 that one foot turned in so much that it actually caused him to fall a LOT and he wouldn't run like other kids. When I took him to his doctor, he actually dismissed me as being an over-reactive mom. Even though I was right about him being Special Needs a year earlier and he brushed me off then too. I asked his therapist about it and she arranged for a specialist who had special inserts made for his shoes. He now runs and plays and walks without falling like he used to, though he still falls, just not as much. Don't be afraid to seek another doctor if you KNOW you aren't being heard when it comes to your daughter.
How is Kristen feeling? I noticed that she looks a little depressed, even when she smiles, it doesn't seem authentic. A couple of people in my family suffer from depression and by observing them I can sense that. I just wonder if she is ok, I really hope so! Much love for all of you!
welcome to the world series where every ones a super bowl winner HAHAHa perfect end to a vlog. anyway im glad you guys are safe and healthy
My son-in-law was so into flying, remote planes and other stuff and really wanted to take flying lessons! Well he did and guess what? He didn't like flying at all! So Cory, before you buy a plane, try taking flying lessons! Don't worry Chell's legs will get better as she grows! Have fun!
I've listened to air traffic control on Shanwich shortwave radio frequencies. It's fascinating to listen to but I'm sure it's a really demanding job. Especially on days when the radio reception isn't the greatest and they have to repeat things and have pilots repeat things. One false letter or number in a call sign or instruction...yikes! Good job and thanks, ATC!
My daughter had bowlegs, and she grew out of it by the time she was 2-3, she is 18 now.. I don't blame you Corey, I can't take hospitals, needles, tests, it makes my skin crawl and my heart race a million miles a second.
Chell is going through a huge growth spurt! I think Cory and Chell need a train table for Christmas.
Good luck on the potty training. I wished I had some helpful tips. We tried lots of different potty training tips but my girls just wasn't interested. My girls was 3 when they finally became potty trained. Their pediatrician said that it was common for some children to potty train later than others.
Now that is something i always feel that something wtong with chell legs ... good as aresponsible parents you took it seriously and even explains it ..... good going ..
I'm happy you guys are safe! I was in a car accident about 20 years ago, very similar to your situation. Although the car behind us did indeed hit us and my dad swirved into the ditch trying not to hit the cars infront of us. The young man in the car behind us was fiddling with the radio so he didn't brake until it was too late. Thankfully no one got really injured apart from seatbelt bruises, both cars were totalled though.
So... safety, seatbelts and GTA will save lives? :P
This vlog was HELLA informative.....!!
Hey Cory, I think the Mr. Fantastic look is really going for you! Very Reed Richards. Also Chell is so cute and getting so big!
I'm glad you got skills. This upsets me. Too many fast drivers out there need to slow down. Give enough time to break.
