You're a wonderful mom. Your kiddos are adorable. Stop being so hard on yourself. Life doesn't have to be perfect all the time. I'm a mom of two teens. Being a mom is hard but they turned out ok. Adore them, so blessed. Just do the best you can, which you are and make time for yourself. Love watching your adorable young family all the way in Cape Town South Africa. Just looking at how cute Emmy is and how cute she sounds and how Okley smiles at you - beautiful kids like their parents. You know by that, that you're doing a great job and being a loving mom. Love your channel. Keep smiling💕🤗
I just wanted to sincerely thank you for being so open and honest about the not so "pretty" aspects of your life. It is so easy, as a viewer, to watch videos and think "Wow these mommies really have it all together!" As a mommy who suffers from anxiety and depression, I absolutely appreciate it when I see a video like this one. It makes you more "real". 💕
Thank you SO much for opening up about your recent struggles. I just saw my doctor yesterday and I am currently experiencing PPD & PPA. I totally understand what you’ve been going thru! My youngest is almost 6 months and my oldest is 4. I didn’t experience this the first time around. This is new to me. I’m glad you went to your dr! We will get thru this, Mama! 💜
Oh girl... I understand fully, being a mom of 3 boys & feeling super overwhelmed/overworked, but never neglect that thyroid medicine. I have hagimotos thyroiditis and I’d say it’s 99.9% due to your thyroid disfunction. Your thyroid controls WAY more of your hormones and bodily functions than most people realize. You’re doing a great job, momma. Keep it up!
Thank you for being so open to sharing what you're going through. Such an important thing and great to spread self-health awareness. Know that the work you do is so important and motivational. Thank you for being real. You have a beautiful family and you're a role model for so many. Thank you!
Love the ending! Thank you for keeping it real! I have days like that too and I couldn’t put it into words. Like they will be great fun days. But dealing with tantrums and over tiredness, and I want this and I want that. Just makes parenting hard. Love your videos!
I so appreciated the end of this video. I needed to hear this so badly right now. i’ve been struggling the last couple of weeks with my 4 month old (the lack of sleep is starting to really kick in!) and it was so nice to be reminded that it’s ok not to be ok sometimes and that it’s totally normal. I applaud you for being an advocate, especially for yourself, because I often find myself struggling thinking, “doesn’t anyone notice?!”. rather than suffering in silence it’s good to be reminded that I can/should stand up for myself and make time to make sure that i’m taken care of, too, not just the family. sending lots of love & well wishes to you! 💜
Hey Allie ! I’m 26 from Wisconsin and I found you on here a month or so ago , I’m not big in the online world , but when I do laundry or clean I love to watch your videos, and really only a few couple other girls I follow ,, so you are def one of my favorites :). I like watching you because you motivate my cleaning techniques , ...your a mama and I’m a mama in way too (I’ve been raising my fiancé’s two boys for the last 5 1/2 years we have been together) so I can jump on board with you and the running , cooking , cleaning, mom anxiety thing and it feels good to watch people that inspire us to be better in our own routine like you do for me and others .. I get anxiety and stress trying to be my best at it right now,AND knowing i will be married next summer and want more kids of my own right away makes me turn to ladies like you that inspire me to keep getting stronger and better in all I try to do ,while still being my own . . Your clip before signing off on you not being ok had me wanting to tell you that your not alone... trying to be a mom to two young boys, who don’t have their real mom around ever , and me never having any experience of my own yet ,got my anxiety up real quick when moving in with my fiancé when I did at age 21. I grew up real quick and have had many emotional days since ..I know how your feeling and you saying some of things you did I 100percent got right away ,made me feel better knowing IM not alone and other strong ladies that inspire me can feel those ways too. Love you lots ❤️
Thank you for your honesty. It's not misery loves company, but it's you are not alone. Having 2 small babies is a wonderful, beautiful thing but it is also so challenging. I am experiencing these emotions, as well. I think that we have to be honest but also kind with ourselves. I am right here with you. Please take care of yourself but know that you are an inspiration. I needed this video today, truly. I am sending positive vibes your way, please do the same. Life's hard, being a woman is hard." Amen! You got this, Allie. We got this. "💜💜💜💜
I have hypothyroidism also and it can definitely effect your feelings as well as your female hormones! Make sure your taking Vit D also or talk to your doctor about it. I also suffer from depression and that really made a difference-getting my vit d levels up. I take 2000-5000 in daily! They think vit d is a hormone now. Talk to your doctor about it! And give your thyroid time to get balanced also. ❤️ It sucks to feel bad emotionally! You’re a great mom! Don’t doubt it!
Idk how you could open up like that without crying, you are so so strong...I WAS CRYING FOR YOU 😭 I dealt with PPD after my 1st born and now I'm about to have my 2nd in 2 months and I'm so scared to go through those dark emotions again 😩 If it happens though I'm glad that I know I'm not alone and having gone through it before I think I can recognize the symptoms earlier and get help sooner 🙏
Makes perfect sense whether thyroid related or otherwise. I hear ya! I literally was feeling the same way, got thyroid tested on Monday, as I had issues during pregnancy, and boom, that was it. It is crazy how it really affected my whole being. And yes, it helps me to know I'm not alone🌺
I just got diagnosed recently with anxiety and depression. It’s always nice hearing others opening up. It’s not easy. It’s definitely something I’m not use to. It puts on a toll on you for sure!!! Hang in there girl!!!!
Thank u so much 4 speaking about realness! I must admit i feel like a slob at times because alot of the youtube moms seem to have it all handled and clean with their hair down, dressed up and im like,get my hair out my face, put leggings on and some nike free runs to not let my feet hurt,why put make up all the time, if im just gonna sweat it out...i have 3 little bys under 10 and boy, is it crazy. I also get frustrated and not handle things the best way and feel so bad but it is part of parenting and its awesome u shared...its like a fresh breath honestly!!! Thank u! Sending u mom power dude..lol thanks alot for the inspiration!
Shave Irish spring soap and place the shavings on the soil and you can even hang chunks on the fence. Somehow the smell of the soap is repulsive to them 😊 the soap is literally a dollar in the dollar store and it truly works even for deer. 😌
Yes yes yes. I love the reality you show in your videos. Days can be great AND stressful. You can be grateful for your blessings but still not feel “quite right”. You’re setting such a wonderful example for women and families in general. Not everything can be cookie cutter perfect all the time and that’s okay, just because it’s not perfect doesn’t mean it still can’t be great. Thank you so much for voicing that message!
Thank you for sharing how you feel! It’s not always an easy thing to talk about. It brought tears to my eyes because I’ve been feeling the same way lately. It’s nice to know I’m not alone. 💗
You are too hard on yourself. You seem like such a genuine person, and I look forward to hearing you be honest about how you are feeling. You are not alone, either. Stay positive, mama. 🥰
Hey for the rabbits I think you need to do more wires at the top too instead of a chicken fence at the bottom. Because rabbits can jump quite high so I’m guessing they’re jumping through that big gap at the top!
Girl, I have graves disease and have always been on the hyperactive side with my thyroid until I was pregnant with my daughter. Shes 8 months now and I'm still hypo which is good because I guess its easier to keep under control but when it isnt under control I ALWAYS get the blues. Just keep taking care of you, mama! Love the videos and excited to see a youtuber in Virginia!
Thank you for sharing your feelings. First time mom here to an 8 month old and been struggling in various areas. It made me cry to know I'm not alone! ❤
Just came across this video, thank you so much for sharing! I’ve had a similar experience and it was so nice to see another mom discuss these issues that probably most moms experience. Greatly appreciated!
Emerson has such beautiful hair! Electric fence around your garden is still good, it'll keep anything bigger than rabbits, out. Still keep the fence, but definitely reinforce it with chicken wire.
We all have those hard parenting days, Allie! I find myself getting more upset and yelling when that probably wasn't the best way to handle the situation. I think the most important thing is that we recognize when that happens and try to handle it differently the next time! You're doing a great job, mama! 😍
Hey there Allie, we had 4 kids in 5 years and it. was. tough! There were various things that got me through. I think the hardest was the ppd after my first, and then our 4th almost not making it. Oh, and parenting does have hard days; none of us are or will ever be the perfect parent. The problem, I think, is if we quit trying - keep going Allie!! I am praying for you!!
Allie, I am thinking of you ❤ I completely understand. Being a momma is hard. Especially with thyroid issues. I struggle a lot with anxiety and depression more so when my levels are off. Hypothyroid issues can really mess with everything including mood. I'm glad you've gotten your levels checked. Don't be so hard on yourself you are amazing. ❤❤ Here for you if you want to talk
You are an AMAZING Mom! God hasn't blessed my hubby and I with children yet, but when He does, my prayer is that I'm as dedicated and caring as you are. This video was REAL and inspirational. Thanks for encouraging us, but also keep in mind that tomorrow is a new day with no mistakes in it! Be great girl! Also, is it me or did the little princess sample each strawberry before putting it in her basket?? lol. She's too cute and I can only imagine how much energy she has in person!!
You’re such a wonderful inspirational mother and RUclipsr. So happy to find such an amazing inspirational woman who makes the most amazing vlogs that are extremely excellently edited.
I have been through so much up and down with my thyroid to not at least share with you to look into Hashimoto's thyroiditis. Ask your doctor if you can have your antibodies tested- it is an autoimmune disease. Your thyroid affects every part of you. Extreme fatigue, depression, anxiety, brain fog, weight LOSS (most people are overweight but I am underweight) are my main symptoms. The only thing that has helped is seeing a naturopathic doctor who is helping keep my thyroid antibodies under control through diet, mostly. Love that you are sharing your struggles with so many in the same boat. You're not alone!
Allie, cut yourself some slack. You have gone through multiple changes, as we have all watched you undertake. Even positive changes are stressful. Everything and everyone does not have to be perfect. Chores such as house cleaning can wait, you're making memories with your husband and children! Schedules are not for real people! Ha
You may want to put the chicken wire all the way up. The bunnies may try to jump over it if it's too short, and they may get stuck in the top of the fence 😒
I’m so sorry you’ve been having a hard time, Allie... but so happy that you discovered the problem and got help! Loved watching y’all at the strawberry patch and Emmi swimming... too cute!!! 💕💕💕
I feel u girl with the parenting, and I just have one son. I ALSO feel you on the late ppd/ emotions. My son is 4 almost 5 and I STILL deal from time to time. I wasn’t diagnosed ppd but I just knew.
I’ve been dealing with some very bad anxiety. Friday evening my husband and I went to Walmart, I needed to pick up some cat food while he went to automotives to get some stuff for the car. I was okay until a man started cursing at his wife, telling her mean things and you could seek her flinch at each insult. They finally walk away and another family walks around the corner and the mom is telling the kid something horrible. He took off crying and she stood there laughing. The more I could feel others pain and anguish, the more I started to feel chaotic. I grabbed my cell phone out of my pocket and found an aisle no one was in and called my husband, sobbing, asking him where he was. He found me huddled into myself, he helped me breathe. He told me I need to get help and good help, not just some quack whose going to medicate me more than I already am. I just cannot afford to talk to someone. I also deal with severe depression, I’m in a major rut right now. Thank you for sharing that you’re struggling too, I don’t feel so alone. I hope yours gets better soon!
You’re doing great with your kids! I love your videos. Thank you for sharing and be so honest. Keep up the great videos but also take a rest if necessary ❤️
2 two and under, who would be okay! 🤣 I've been really enjoying your vlogs lately because I will soon be in your position! I am 13 weeks pregnant and my two kids will be 25 months apart! I feel like you're mentally preparing me 😂
You are great at what you do... Even if you feel the way you do... Your still pushing... And we all have our good days and bad days... And I really enjoyed this video... Specially watching Emmi taste testing her strawberries... That was too cute... Happy Tuesday 😊... 👍👍👍👍👍
Yes, talk more about the real struggles, even tho im a very kind hearted person, somehow I feel like I totally "failed" at being a mom, im a mom of 2, with 2 Dif dads, and none of my children living with me, divorced, and somehow I thought that rebuilding myself, by going to school and being more qualified, getting a better job, I would manifest a "perfect family "....that I would have more value, i absolutely loving my dream career that I worked hard to get, but still I feel sour feeling inside, I can't eat, im not really well, ....im subscribed to a few channels of moms , and I try to learn and analyse how to be at home ,married, mommying. The fact that you share that everything isn't perfect is really what I need to hear sometimes. The more you will share how hard it is, the more ill be watching, so don't be shy to talk about it.
The last few weeks were a lot for you and your family😔 Maybe you can take a little „mom time out“ and do something special just for you (spa or Target again 😂). We all have such bad/sad times and i‘m glad that you‘re honest about it. Just remember 😌it‘s always darkest before the dawn😘 you are so beautiful and awesome and you mean so much to me🖤
Emerson reminds my so much of my extremely willful 2 year old Landon who is also terrified of pools (hoping to kick that this summer. I’d love if you went into more detail about your recent feelings of anxiety and maybe some blues because it’s something I struggle with as a mom too and I don’t see a lot of my mom friends dealing with as much. Thanks for the hard work!!
I love this family they are so happy and healthy growing there own food when most young people like them are just living life when this family is appreciating every single minute of life #lifegoals❤️❤️❤️
Been there babe, I had a newborn and a 1.5yr old. IT DOES GET EASIER. You will feel yourself again. There will still be time to do all the thing you want to do. But you can’t do it all over.. so cherish it while you can. You’re doing great and those dang hormones are pesky but know it’s just your body and not your mind. Take care of yourself so that you can take better care of those babies. Hang in there, there’s light at the end of the tunnel ❤️👨👩👧👦💪
Awesome video!! Hang in there mama ❤️ I would love to see a hair tutorial with the new curling wand! I want my hair to look like yours! Lol love your videos and your sweet family!
Dear Allie, I'm watching you from France so sorry for my English if it's not perfect. Thank you for being honest on your emotional state. I'm dealing with a depression for several months and I know what you're talking about when you say you don't recognize yourself but I would like to tell you that it will come to an end one day. Take this moment like a test to teach you something on your personality and to identify what you want or don't want in life. It's a time for you to reconnect with you body and your soul. Sometimes you'll have perfect days and other days, it will be harsh but this is life. Accept it, let emotions comes even if it hurts and then one day, you'll no more suffer from them, from anxiety or from the mess your head can be in "storm times". Take care of yourself. I send you my thoughts from the other side of Atlantic Ocean
Hola ☺️. Soy nueva subscriptora, me gustan tus videos, aunque aún no entiendo mucho y tampoco todo lo que dicen pero de todas maneras me gusta verlos son muy coloridos y son una bonita familia, Saludos te veo desde Tijuana BC México. Bye..
Hi do you have suggestions or advise for anxiety and how to deal with it without medication, I also have not being feeling my self but I am hanging in there with my God's help☺ thank you for opening up about your feelings it helps to know we are not alone
Thanks for being so open and honest. Have you considered counselling? I’ve had it and it was fabulous. Maybe you should try and spend time on you doing pamper stuff or the gym? XX
I feel like you and I are twins lol. 2 little ones, Hypothyroidism Both of our husbands names is Andrew And yes a lot of that is your thyroid I literally just went through this.
Oh my gosh show me how to use the wand. I’ve heard people are loving it. I have short thin hair tho but I’m wondering if it would help give me some volume - I know the exhaustion. I have hashimotos and I’m already up to 175mg and still going up. Hoping my next draw is better but it may not be depression and more thyroid related. I have it also Also I just went off my progesterone birth control and that highly effected my mood. I feel a weight lifted off me. Crying less! Insane how hormones effect us.
You're a wonderful mom. Your kiddos are adorable. Stop being so hard on yourself. Life doesn't have to be perfect all the time. I'm a mom of two teens. Being a mom is hard but they turned out ok. Adore them, so blessed. Just do the best you can, which you are and make time for yourself. Love watching your adorable young family all the way in Cape Town South Africa. Just looking at how cute Emmy is and how cute she sounds and how Okley smiles at you - beautiful kids like their parents. You know by that, that you're doing a great job and being a loving mom. Love your channel. Keep smiling💕🤗

Andrew should do a solo day in the life of a dad lol it would be so fun
Jessie kay I agree!!! Everybody who wants this, let Andrew know!! 😝
Simply Allie would love to see Andrew vlog a day in the life please film it
I suffer from anxiety and so appreciate you being open & honest about those things!
I have hypothyroidism also and it can definitely effect your feelings as well as your female hormones! Make sure your taking Vit D also or talk to your doctor about it.

haha same here!
Your garden is unbelieveable. Thanks for being so open and honest about your feelings. Hope you have better days ahead, take it easy momma ♡
Shave Irish spring soap and place the shavings on the soil and you can even hang chunks on the fence. Somehow the smell of the soap is repulsive to them 😊 the soap is literally a dollar in the dollar store and it truly works even for deer. 😌
Yes yes yes. I love the reality you show in your videos. Days can be great AND stressful. You can be grateful for your blessings but still not feel “quite right”. You’re setting such a wonderful example for women and families in general. Not everything can be cookie cutter perfect all the time and that’s okay, just because it’s not perfect doesn’t mean it still can’t be great. Thank you so much for voicing that message!

You are too hard on yourself. You seem like such a genuine person, and I look forward to hearing you be honest about how you are feeling. You are not alone, either. Stay positive, mama. 🥰
You're doing so great. I'm happy you went to your doctor about this. Talking about this topic saves lives.
I'm currently also suffering from those feelings and physical stress, April and May. PPD is very real and raw. You are a good mom, this will pass.
Hey for the rabbits I think you need to do more wires at the top too instead of a chicken fence at the bottom. Because rabbits can jump quite high so I’m guessing they’re jumping through that big gap at the top!
Girl, I have graves disease and have always been on the hyperactive side with my thyroid until I was pregnant with my daughter.

Well done Allie talking about your feelings it isnt easy. Great video as usual. Sending love😘😘😘
Thank you for sharing your feelings. First time mom here to an 8 month old and been struggling in various areas. It made me cry to know I'm not alone! ❤
Just came across this video, thank you so much for sharing! I’ve had a similar experience and it was so nice to see another mom discuss these issues that probably most moms experience. Greatly appreciated!
Watch SimplyAllie first thing in the morning ? Yes please ❤️❤️
Emerson has such beautiful hair!
Electric fence around your garden is still good, it'll keep anything bigger than rabbits, out. Still keep the fence, but definitely reinforce it with chicken wire.
We all have those hard parenting days, Allie! I find myself getting more upset and yelling when that probably wasn't the best way to handle the situation. I think the most important thing is that we recognize when that happens and try to handle it differently the next time! You're doing a great job, mama! 😍
Hey there Allie, we had 4 kids in 5 years and it. was. tough! There were various things that got me through.
I think the hardest was the ppd after my first, and then our 4th almost not making it.
Oh, and parenting does have hard days; none of us are or will ever be the perfect parent. The problem, I think, is if we quit trying - keep going Allie!! I am praying for you!!
We love you, Allie! Thank you for sharing this. I hope you feel better 💛

A tip for cucumbers we always put a tomato cage around them and they will climb it that way your cucumbers wont be laying on the ground. Works great!
Thank you Allie for sharing this video 💕
Totally understand when you said “ i wasn’t crazy... we are going through this together 💪
Love you bunch ♥️
You’re such a wonderful inspirational mother and RUclipsr. So happy to find such an amazing inspirational woman who makes the most amazing vlogs that are extremely excellently edited.
So proud if Emmie. Oakley is getting big. Hope you have a great week.♥️♥️♥️
I have been through so much up and down with my thyroid to not at least share with you to look into Hashimoto's thyroiditis.

The only thing that has helped is seeing a naturopathic doctor who is helping keep my thyroid antibodies under control through diet, mostly. Love that you are sharing your struggles with so many in the same boat. You're not alone!
For your dry shampoo, if you don’t like the non toxic one, try Batiste! It’s the best one I’ve tried!
Allie, cut yourself some slack. You have gone through multiple changes, as we have all watched you undertake. Even positive changes are stressful. Everything and everyone does not have to be perfect. Chores such as house cleaning can wait, you're making memories with your husband and children! Schedules are not for real people! Ha
You may want to put the chicken wire all the way up. The bunnies may try to jump over it if it's too short, and they may get stuck in the top of the fence 😒
please talk about what's been going on. I know i would love to be able to hear that I'm not the only one. also Emerson's little voice is the sweetest!
Thank you for being honest about how you feel and your parenting stuff
I’m so sorry you’ve been having a hard time, Allie... but so happy that you discovered the problem and got help! Loved watching y’all at the strawberry patch and Emmi swimming... too cute!!! 💕💕💕
I feel u girl with the parenting, and I just have one son.
I ALSO feel you on the late ppd/ emotions. My son is 4 almost 5 and I STILL deal from time to time. I wasn’t diagnosed ppd but I just knew.
Love watching your family! For the garden, I use deer and rabbit repellent, Walmart sells it. All natural :)
He’s so Super Scared. How cute is that 😆😆😆
Liliana Martinez haha! I thought so, too! 😆😘👧🏼❤️
Having my thyroid removed I have to stay on my medication. It’s super important. Happy to hear you are feeling better
I'm loving the garden clips. It's doing so well. Thanx for sharing:) Cheers!
I was thinking the chicken wire on the last garden video they are smart lil buggers you could also get a trail camera and see how they get in
Hugs allie. We’re in this together. As you know from tonight it’s been rough. 😭😭 I wish we lived closer!!
2:50 those smiles ❤
I’ve been dealing with some very bad anxiety. Friday evening my husband and I went to Walmart, I needed to pick up some cat food while he went to automotives to get some stuff for the car. I was okay until a man started cursing at his wife, telling her mean things and you could seek her flinch at each insult. They finally walk away and another family walks around the corner and the mom is telling the kid something horrible. He took off crying and she stood there laughing. The more I could feel others pain and anguish, the more I started to feel chaotic. I grabbed my cell phone out of my pocket and found an aisle no one was in and called my husband, sobbing, asking him where he was. He found me huddled into myself, he helped me breathe. He told me I need to get help and good help, not just some quack whose going to medicate me more than I already am. I just cannot afford to talk to someone. I also deal with severe depression, I’m in a major rut right now. Thank you for sharing that you’re struggling too, I don’t feel so alone. I hope yours gets better soon!
You’re doing great with your kids! I love your videos. Thank you for sharing and be so honest. Keep up the great videos but also take a rest if necessary ❤️
2 two and under, who would be okay! 🤣 I've been really enjoying your vlogs lately because I will soon be in your position! I am 13 weeks pregnant and my two kids will be 25 months apart! I feel like you're mentally preparing me 😂
You are great at what you do... Even if you feel the way you do... Your still pushing... And we all have our good days and bad days... And I really enjoyed this video... Specially watching Emmi taste testing her strawberries... That was too cute... Happy Tuesday 😊... 👍👍👍👍👍
Yes, talk more about the real struggles, even tho im a very kind hearted person, somehow I feel like I totally "failed" at being a mom, im a mom of 2, with 2 Dif dads, and none of my children living with me, divorced, and somehow I thought that rebuilding myself, by going to school and being more qualified, getting a better job, I would manifest a "perfect family "....that I would have more value, i absolutely loving my dream career that I worked hard to get, but still I feel sour feeling inside, I can't eat, im not really well, ....im subscribed to a few channels of moms , and I try to learn and analyse how to be at home ,married, mommying. The fact that you share that everything isn't perfect is really what I need to hear sometimes. The more you will share how hard it is, the more ill be watching, so don't be shy to talk about it.
Mireille Bliss I’m so sorry you’re having these sour feelings! I’ll be praying for you! 💗
This was so relaxing 💕 thank you for always being so real!
Your doing great momma don’t ever forget that 💕💕💕
You are so amazing Allie!!
The last few weeks were a lot for you and your family😔
Maybe you can take a little „mom time out“ and do something special just for you (spa or Target again 😂). We all have such bad/sad times and i‘m glad that you‘re honest about it. Just remember 😌it‘s always darkest before the dawn😘 you are so beautiful and awesome and you mean so much to me🖤
Sophie Zophie true!!!
Keep up the great work mama, love watching your channel.
Great video. Thanks for sharing your emotions. You are not alone😘
Emerson reminds my so much of my extremely willful 2 year old Landon who is also terrified of pools (hoping to kick that this summer. I’d love if you went into more detail about your recent feelings of anxiety and maybe some blues because it’s something I struggle with as a mom too and I don’t see a lot of my mom friends dealing with as much. Thanks for the hard work!!
Emy and Okley looking soooooooooo cutee... loveee 😍😍😍😘
Try hanging pie pans in the garden. The noise they make when hitting a pole, should scare the rabbits away.
I love this family they are so happy and healthy growing there own food when most young people like them are just living life when this family is appreciating every single minute of life #lifegoals❤️❤️❤️
I love how real you are. It is so refreshing to see youtubers who dont have to fake it for the camera.
its 12.50 a. m right now in malaysia. im on my way to sleep actually haha.. but bcoz i love her chanel.. my sleep is not gonna happen haha.. love u
I feel like Emmi could be a total farm girl! ❤️
I love that Emi put her half eaten strawberry in the bucket 😂😂
Been there babe, I had a newborn and a 1.5yr old. IT DOES GET EASIER. You will feel yourself again. There will still be time to do all the thing you want to do. But you can’t do it all over.. so cherish it while you can. You’re doing great and those dang hormones are pesky but know it’s just your body and not your mind. Take care of yourself so that you can take better care of those babies. Hang in there, there’s light at the end of the tunnel
❤️👨👩👧👦💪
I love your videos and your family! Looks like so much fun! ❤️
You got this mama!❤️
You’re babies are so beautiful!😍
Awesome video!! Hang in there mama ❤️ I would love to see a hair tutorial with the new curling wand! I want my hair to look like yours! Lol love your videos and your sweet family!
I love your Chanel 💗
Dear Allie, I'm watching you from France so sorry for my English if it's not perfect. Thank you for being honest on your emotional state. I'm dealing with a depression for several months and I know what you're talking about when you say you don't recognize yourself but I would like to tell you that it will come to an end one day. Take this moment like a test to teach you something on your personality and to identify what you want or don't want in life. It's a time for you to reconnect with you body and your soul. Sometimes you'll have perfect days and other days, it will be harsh but this is life. Accept it, let emotions comes even if it hurts and then one day, you'll no more suffer from them, from anxiety or from the mess your head can be in "storm times". Take care of yourself. I send you my thoughts from the other side of Atlantic Ocean
Thanks for keeping it real Allie! 👍🏼♥️

Hi do you have suggestions or advise for anxiety and how to deal with it without medication, I also have not being feeling my self but I am hanging in there with my God's help☺ thank you for opening up about your feelings it helps to know we are not alone
Your veggies are doing amazing!!! Here in Mexico We cook the squash flowers... they are so yummy!
If you plant rosemary at the corners of the planters then every morning go out and rub them the rabbits HATE that scent.
I was so excited to see you blw! I loved it. But I understand why you wouldn't want to.
Thank you,lots of info..just know you are an amazing mom and wife.You are AWESOME!
Aw fun!! Love strawberry picking!
You live in heaven..i really like ur familly😍😍
Thanks for being so open and honest. Have you considered counselling? I’ve had it and it was fabulous. Maybe you should try and spend time on you doing pamper stuff or the gym? XX

Savannah Szabo
Thank you!☺️
love watching your videos!! :)
Be happy always,ur kids are too cute,
Is this your private pool.. Or a common one... If you could plz tell me the size in square feet?
The rabbits still manage to get through our chicken wire somehow too. Haha.
Do you have a DIY video on the planters boxes?
People need to realize being a SAHM is not that easy 😫😫😫
I’ve been there mama, just now getting my kids back on a good schedule instead of just being constantly on the go which pushes them to their brink...
I feel like you and I are twins lol.
2 little ones,
Hypothyroidism
Both of our husbands names is Andrew
And yes a lot of that is your thyroid I literally just went through this.
Oh my gosh show me how to use the wand. I’ve heard people are loving it. I have short thin hair tho but I’m wondering if it would help give me some volume - I know the exhaustion. I have hashimotos and I’m already up to 175mg and still going up. Hoping my next draw is better but it may not be depression and more thyroid related. I have it also
Also I just went off my progesterone birth control and that highly effected my mood. I feel a weight lifted off me. Crying less! Insane how hormones effect us.
