Thank you Sony for giving The Ballinger Family such a nice gift. I cannot think of a more deserving and kind family. Enjoy your movie nights Ballingers!
I’m so excited for you guys! I can’t believe you never had a TV!! You guys are so incredible and a huge inspiration! Have the best thanksgiving ever I CANT WAIT FOR VLOGMAS
You should look into taking the family Geocaching. It's like a big outdoor global scavenger hunt based on GPS. It's family friendly and suitable for all ages! Many geocaches have really cool stories to go with them or are even based at historic locations
Can you please bring back «Lets talk about what we learned today» for vlogmas? Its one of my favorite things to watch from you guys, and it would be like a little advent calender!
i absolutely love seeing how excited luke gets with all of his siblings, all the way from saying “good morning everyone!” all the way down to do something as a family, such as showing us their brand new tv. i love you ballinger’s!
So happy for your family and your new T.V. Luke's personality is so sweet. How he laughed at his Momma for getting the clothes caught in the light and how he was watching himself on the T.V. He's just the sweetest little guy!
I am so very impressed that you haven't had a television. That shows what truly awesome parents you are, and why your kids have such amazing imaginations and creativity.
Seriously? Lots of people don’t have tvs for one reason or another. It doesn’t make them special. Even if you have a tv it’s called setting limits on what and how much they watch.
oooo congrats on the fancy sponsor ballingers !! i dont think i will ever get over duncan's lil winks :') and with his lil shirt that just says four XD just too cute
OLED is def the way to go! So awesome you were gifted this beautiful tv- how cool is that! My husband is a techie- he’s all about investing in a quality set every few years. Technology changes so rapidly, but it is beyond worth it to enjoy media in this way. You should def invest in some 4K Blu-ray’s to really see it shine. My best recommendation would be the new remastered 4K UHD Lord of the Rings release. It’s an investment- but SO worth it. The movies have never looked more incredible! Peter Jackson assisted in the remaster, so it was done right.
Christopher: is that thermostat the functioning one that controls climate in any of the rooms in your house? If so, the possible warmth from the back of the tv might falsely inform the thermostat so keep an eye on your room temp if it’s a proper one? Maybe the newer fancy TVs don’t get as warm but it’s possible that the tv placement might cause a temperature control barrier. Anyways congrats on all the big screen streaming now!!!
Aww Jessica snuggled in her bed with (almost) all her kids is just living her best life. And I cannot believe Luke’s progress! His verbal skills are growing so much and even when words fail, he has such a wonderful way of expressing himself. All the kids are incredible. And Chris’s explanation of what they were doing with the cords reminded me a lot of his videos on Gifted Guitars sooo basically this was an awesome video! Editing to say that I’m excited for the day Bailey can read Da Vinci Code. It’s a little mature for her right now, but I think she’d really like it.
Luke is communicating so much better!!! My 5 year old son has hearing loss and autism and has speech delays. He gets speech 3 times a week and occupational therapy and we haven't seen much progress yet, but you guys give me such hope! Thank you! Happy Thanksgiving!
Good job Bailey and Parker and Duncan for helping your dad out with the tv~ hi Luke and teddy and Jacob and wonderful Rue and mom and dad , thanks for always being kind and loving I’m a fan from Canada also happy thanksgiving family~
I've occasionally bought a flat extension cord only to figure out that it left the outlet in the wrong direction. I didn't even know flat SWIVEL extension cords were a thing, but that will work great for me.
When Jessica said they had never had a TV there I first thought she meant they hadn't had one in their bedroom. Then I realized she meant they hadn't had one at all. Lol.
I love using our big screen TV to gather everybody around and take virtual tours of museums like the Smithsonian and the Louvre or the castle that the queen lives in I can’t think of the name right now but it’s really good for that kind of stuff and I know you guys homeschool your kids so I think you guys would really enjoy that they have all kinds of places you can do virtual tours of now
Great idea for the tv cord. I was wondering how they hide the cords. Now I will let my husband install the tv on the wall 😂 I did not want a cord hanging down. What a beautiful walk with the kids! Bailys food looks soo good!
Luke is getting soooo big and hes just a little ball of 🌞 love him and duncan to bits. The age range that they are in is my favorite age range of all children if I could have my dream job it would be teaching children in that age range pre pre kindergarten
I use to nanny Lucy Liu’s brothers kids and they never had a tv either. The only thing they were allowed to watch was tinker bell on a iPad, and I think it’s because Lucy plays one of the fairies lol
Hi from England! If any of your kids are interested or studying history I highly recommend the kids CBBC show 'Horrible Histories' not only is it historically factual it is funny. They use all kinds of techniques to teach kids through like funny sketches or songs (I've watched since Parker was a baby so I know your family likes a sing and a dance). Every child in the UK watched this show and even at 19 I still enjoy it and learn from it. Hopefully you can access it in the US, I think you will be able to on RUclips. Lots of love to you all, Izzy xxx
Does Jessica tend to hang out in the room most of the day? I hope she's doing good from one mommy to another I know how overwhelming it can be after having a baby and having other kiddos to also keep up with 🙏
Hi! Great book recommendation for Bailey! They are called the Dear America series. Each book is written in diary format from the perspective of a girl about Bailey’s age during different times in US history. They’re super informative-if I remember correctly, they cite all the information in the back, but I could be wrong-while making the information relatable and engaging. Happy learning!
Has Bailey read the book thief yet? It’s another amazing book about WWII. I think she would really enjoy, I’m the same age as Bailey and I really enjoyed it.
Anyone else having 2nd hand anxiety about the tv being behind the door? I've seen how kids can damage things with doors! It's quite impressive what kid plus door can achieve. 😓
Could you guys go do a day in Ojai? I used to live there and love it so much. Maybe a day at Bart's Books and a visit to the hot springs at Matilija Canyon. You could get spring water up the highway. Get some fresh orange juice. It's such a magical place. Give it a thought.
Thank you Sony for giving The Ballinger Family such a nice gift. I cannot think of a more deserving and kind family. Enjoy your movie nights Ballingers!
I am so impressed with how far Luke has come along!!! Early intervention is simply amazing! ♥️
I’m so excited for you guys! I can’t believe you never had a TV!! You guys are so incredible and a huge inspiration! Have the best thanksgiving ever I CANT WAIT FOR VLOGMAS
Yes vlogmas!!!!!!
Lots of people don’t tvs, it’s nothing new
You should look into taking the family Geocaching. It's like a big outdoor global scavenger hunt based on GPS. It's family friendly and suitable for all ages! Many geocaches have really cool stories to go with them or are even based at historic locations
Thats a Great idea!
Yes! I did this all the time as a kid!
they would love geocaching!!! Great idea
YES!! I feel like this fam would LOVE Geocaching!
The intro never gets old the more it adds the better it gets😊
I get the theme song stuck in my head 😂
I was thinking that when they had to add more of the song to add names a while ago. Makes my heart happy
Duncan winking melts my heart every time! He’s such a sweet kid! 😉
Omg, Lukes way of saying "Ya", sounds exactly like Parker when he was small!!
props to Cris for remembering all the electronic mumbo jumbo about the tv...enjoy it! looks great on the wall !!
Can you please bring back «Lets talk about what we learned today» for vlogmas? Its one of my favorite things to watch from you guys, and it would be like a little advent calender!
Little Luke saying “yeah” is the cutest
Yes😊
yeah like how janae in j house vlogs says she does not want pink socks but her mom said say ok and she said ok
Duncan's little winks are so cute!!
He's the sweetest little kid i swear
you can really tell how much improvement Luke has had with his speech even in just the last couple of months. So proud of our little yes man!
I CAN'T wait till you guys meet the twins! Im sure Bailey is excited!
If I was Bailey I would be excited! She is the only girl so to have another girl is very exciting.
@@abigailgrace4733 ...shes got girl cousins on her moms side I think.. :)
@@13xclaudiax ya I think your right. It’s still exciting on the ballinger side bc they were also born in her birthday ☺️
@@abigailgrace4733 ...for sure...
How did I spend this long watching you guys and NEVER notice you didn’t have a a tv?! 😂
i absolutely love seeing how excited luke gets with all of his siblings, all the way from saying “good morning everyone!” all the way down to do something as a family, such as showing us their brand new tv. i love you ballinger’s!
Congrats!! I aspire to be like you guys as parents when I have children. You have the sweetest children on earth !
Omg Luke saying ‘yeah’ 😭❤️❤️ I’m so proud of him
So happy for your family and your new T.V. Luke's personality is so sweet. How he laughed at his Momma for getting the clothes caught in the light and how he was watching himself on the T.V. He's just the sweetest little guy!
Luke is talking so well when he was looking at the t.v earlier in the video he said watch and see So cute! Good job little Luke!
I am so very impressed that you haven't had a television. That shows what truly awesome parents you are, and why your kids have such amazing imaginations and creativity.
Seriously? Lots of people don’t have tvs for one reason or another. It doesn’t make them special. Even if you have a tv it’s called setting limits on what and how much they watch.
Haha, I can't believe Chris remembered the name of the tv!! That was a lot
oooo congrats on the fancy sponsor ballingers !! i dont think i will ever get over duncan's lil winks :') and with his lil shirt that just says four XD just too cute
That's a beautiful picture on your Sony Bravia XRA80J 4K HDR OLED TV, C & J! 😂
Congratulations on the sponsorship!!

I have tv’s but I still choose to watch YT on my iPhone lol. It feels more intimate ☺️😂
That was a mouth full just for a TV. Impressed Christopher.. 👏
Luke is communicating so much better!!! My 5 year old son has hearing loss and autism and has speech delays. He gets speech 3 times a week and occupational therapy and we haven't seen much progress yet, but you guys give me such hope! Thank you! Happy Thanksgiving!
Love you guys so much. I’m so excited for the Ballinger Christmas season.
ahhh i’m so proud of luke, he’s been so chatty these past few videos!
I love how you turned the tv into a family activity! And, I’m with Duncan, those sea lions were awesome! It would be a dream to see them!
Good job Bailey and Parker and Duncan for helping your dad out with the tv~ hi Luke and teddy and Jacob and wonderful Rue and mom and dad , thanks for always being kind and loving I’m a fan from Canada also happy thanksgiving family~
Your kids are the best! I’m loving watching Luke’s development.

Its Duncan's wink for me ✨
Luke saying "yeah" is the cutest!!
That’s one happy momma with all her babies! ♥️
I've occasionally bought a flat extension cord only to figure out that it left the outlet in the wrong direction. I didn't even know flat SWIVEL extension cords were a thing, but that will work great for me.
Well done Sony! This is the family you want to support!
Great video! I'm glad that you finally got something you have been looking forward to. Have a good Thanksgiving everyone, love you!
So happy for you guys! I love this sweet family!
Love the TV!!! And Duncan’s winks are so cute. Also, what happened to Bailey’s arm?
When Jessica said they had never had a TV there I first thought she meant they hadn't had one in their bedroom. Then I realized she meant they hadn't had one at all. Lol.
All of your kids are precious but Luke melts my heart every time he smiles.
Never ever lose that remote. It's so hard to find a replacement!
I would actually buy the replacement right now and put it somewhere safe
seeing you guys happy, makes me so happy
Y’all have the best kids! Luke is so adorable. I think it’s time for a bigger bed now! 😂😂😂
I love using our big screen TV to gather everybody around and take virtual tours of museums like the Smithsonian and the Louvre or the castle that the queen lives in I can’t think of the name right now but it’s really good for that kind of stuff and I know you guys homeschool your kids so I think you guys would really enjoy that they have all kinds of places you can do virtual tours of now
Always a Blast at the Balingers 💙😂💜
Congratulations for a TV 📺🥰🌟 it was so cool watching you teaching the kids to hide the cord like that!!!
Oh my gosh! I had no idea you guys didn’t have a tv. I guess with computers and a projector it’s not always needed. But how exciting!! 🤩💖
Congrats on the new tv. ^_^
May your family have hours of fun enjoying your new TV! Happy Thanksgiving!
Duncan has a beautiful falsetto 😌
Great idea for the tv cord. I was wondering how they hide the cords. Now I will let my husband install the tv on the wall 😂 I did not want a cord hanging down. What a beautiful walk with the kids! Bailys food looks soo good!
What a cool sponsorship! Looks like a really beautiful TV.
You’ll make more memories as a family with those TV, that’s for sure! 🥰
Luke is getting soooo big and hes just a little ball of 🌞 love him and duncan to bits. The age range that they are in is my favorite age range of all children if I could have my dream job it would be teaching children in that age range pre pre kindergarten
I have a SONY tv to, my friends. I wish you all to have a very blessed Thanksgiving holiday!! HUGS.
I wish my dad was like you. Childhood would have been amazing ❤
You guys are such a cute family and I love all of you guys😁😁
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS AND YOUR FAMILY 💕
I need one of those Sony TVs so I can appreciate the sea lions from today's video a little more 😉😄
I mean come on...Duncan is the cutest handyman of all time...He is so adorable!!!
We just bought that TV! I know nothing about technology but it is really cool. Enjoy!
Everyone on the bed snuggled up was so cute 😍 🥰❤
That’s amazing! You can have lots of fun watching tv!
So ready to finally hear once again…“ITS VLOGMAS VLOGMAS AND ITS TIME TO CELEBRATE… VLOGMAS!” And for advent! Love the Ballingers🥰
The sound effect with Duncan's wink never gets old lol
Duncan and his Wink are the cutest thing ever 😉
I use to nanny Lucy Liu’s brothers kids and they never had a tv either. The only thing they were allowed to watch was tinker bell on a iPad, and I think it’s because Lucy plays one of the fairies lol
I just love your family and all the updates ❤️

Congratulations on the TV!!! Love it
I love your family you’re kids are so cute
Love your family
I’m completely obsessed with all of you!🥰❤️
I just love you guys so much you guys are like my cup of coffee☕️☕️☕️😁😁😁
Have you guys watched Colonial House? It was a pbs show in the early 2000s, very historical and educational but also fun! 🦃❤️
Does Jessica tend to hang out in the room most of the day? I hope she's doing good from one mommy to another I know how overwhelming it can be after having a baby and having other kiddos to also keep up with 🙏
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

AWW LUKES 'YEAH'
Luke says “YEAH”! 😍
Luke will be amazing and have great skills when he’s older!!!
Has Bailey read the book thief yet? It’s another amazing book about WWII. I think she would really enjoy, I’m the same age as Bailey and I really enjoyed it.
What a cool place to walk and just enjoy yourselves
What a lovely place for an evening stroll
Anyone else having 2nd hand anxiety about the tv being behind the door? I've seen how kids can damage things with doors! It's quite impressive what kid plus door can achieve. 😓
Yes very very much so.
Yes
Yes!!+
I feel like they must not use that door I'm sure Christopher would have thought about that
I noticed a bolt lock at the top so I’m assuming that side of the door does not open? I could be wrong.
Great TV 📺 Sony is the best 🎉🎉🎉
Could you guys go do a day in Ojai? I used to live there and love it so much. Maybe a day at Bart's Books and a visit to the hot springs at Matilija Canyon. You could get spring water up the highway. Get some fresh orange juice. It's such a magical place. Give it a thought.
Omg I love you family so much
I love going to Harbors! Sea Lions are incredible!!!! ❤️❤️❤️
That’s awesome that you guys got a new TV the quality is very good and I love sea lions at the bay so cool and the kids are so fun
Wow, no tv for years and now one of the BEST, amazing!
