I really respect y’all’s decision to keep kaia off camera and keep the channel about you two! Not that there’s anything wrong with putting her on screen or anything, I just think it’s really beautiful to keep her safe and to yourselves for awhile. Love you guys💛
Actually there is something wrong with putting s child on the internet and making that child the main source of the channel/ money maker so im glad jess and gabe stayed just jess and gabe only now they're parents. There is absolutely everything wrong with family channels
'' Jesus loves Makaiah lou, not because her eyes are blue, Or because the things she do, Just because she is Makaiah lou.'' This is the sweetest and the most wholesome thing i have heard today😍😍😍
i have a friend who has had to go to therapy because her parents never showed other emotions besides the positive ones around her. so she never saw her parents mad, upset, or angry that growing up whenever she felt those emotions she thought that something was wrong with her so she picked up bad coping mechanism and other things to deal with it. moral of the story: life is about balance. i am not saying kids should see there parents screaming or anything but they should see normal healthy interactions
Omg Ik what you mean. I know a pair of adult siblings who cannot handle confrontation or negative emotions because their parents never showed it, so it became this toxic positivity. It’s super important to raise a competent child.
I remember when I got pregnant with my son, I cried so hard and freaked out one day that I wouldn't love him as much as my daughter. Lol. It crazy amazing how much room we have in our hearts/love.
hey from australia!! i get so excited when i see you’ve posted another video , you guys just have such a fun vibe and dynamic with each other and it’s so inspiring 💗💗
So happy to see more of you on here! I totally understand taking time off since becoming parents, but definitely missed your content!🫶🏻 also really happy that this isn’t just becoming a typical family channel
my husband and I are the same age as y’all but I literally look up to y’all so much as a couple🫶 My husband and I have been together for 7 years and are waiting a few more years to have kids. You guys are doing great 👏🏻 and just know that you have a lot of couples looking up to you for how they hope to parent their future kids🫶 You guys are such lights for the Kingdom!! keep shining❤
@@elisabeth4687 this is the exact! Problem with social media n online no one knows who is talking to who and everything gets misunderstood. Don't speak to me like that as its extremely disrespectful.
Hi Jess and Gabe!! I got a bit too excited and clicked on this video instantly 😂 But I’m so excited to hear your insights! Been loving you guys for 5 years already. ♥️
You guys are amazing parents already and will continue to do so until she grows up. So so proud of you guys and how far y'all have come! I've been watching you guys since living in LA "Conteam" times!
Parents are lame ( No offense ) Gabe: Oh it says no offense Ohhh my gosh I was worried there for a second Jess: Oh I like nearly got offended 😂😂😂😂 Their humor alone says it all.. they're not lame 🤣
My parents screamed and argued in front of us.. when my husband and I are blessed to have children we will have disagreements in front of them and we will show them a healthy way to communicate ♥️
I can’t believe that jess and gabe are much more mature parents than my own who are now 60 years old 🤣 i definitely learned how to be an adult the hard way
This is amazing! I've been watching your videos since before you guys got married and now you guys are parents🤍🤍🤍🌻🌻🥺THIS IS BEAUTIFUL! I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU! GOD BLESS ❤
Isn’t it so funny how people have the freedom to assume anything and everything 🥲 you’re raising a wonderful little girl who was created by the most loving Father and for her to be given to y’all means He knows you will give your heart and more to being the best parents you could be 💕
Congratulations! Just wait - every new stage will be your new favourite. It just gets better and better! My daughter just turned one and she's SO much fun. Every single new skill or stage is just so beautiful in its own way and so exciting. It's a ride, but the hard times DO end and the great times just keep coming
I totally felt the same way about how do you fit any more love in your heart for baby #2 and it’s so hard to explain but I swear you love them the exact same amount but the connection you have with your babies are different with each baby, I have 2 kids and when they’re getting bigger watching them grow together it’s both equal the love you have for them but they will always have a completely different personality and the connections are just a little different between ever baby idk if that’s the right way to explain but 😂❤ that’s the best I could do hahah
I have 3 kids and I didn’t get it until I had my second child. But my daughter which is the oldest she loved her grandparents and dad more I would tell her don’t worry I will have a son that loves me and he’s the sweetest thing ever. And I have two boys but they are mamas Boys for sure. And I love them all so much and I do the best I can to show them all love. But they are so different is insane how they each show love. And how they show love to each other.
I used to sing to my son when I was pregnant and guess whaaaaaattttt he loves singing more than me now...I'm soooo proud of him ..y'all are great parents...I LOVE YOU🥰
I’m almost 74 years old and I remember when I was pregnant for the second time, I was on the couch with my almost 5 year old daughter wondering if I could ever love another child as much as I loved her. We’ll, I soon learned that yes I could and it was wonderful. My new baby daughter was also her big sister’s baby! Love expands your heart! 💗
Love yall! Would love to see an updated couples/parents daily/night routine! As well as what yall do like date nights how often, i know saturdays now yall are doing no phone days, just ways yall find to connect and have a succesful marriage and relationship together
About how to love another baby as much as you love Makaiah, my dad had great anxiety when my mom was pregnant with my brother that he wouldn’t love him as much as he loved me. He shared to my godfather he didn’t know how he could possibly find space in his heart to love another baby just as much as his first. My godfather’s answer was « your heart won’t split in two, it will expand » ❤
I have only one child and shes 5. and i couldnt see how i could have another one. Id perfer to have my one on one time with her, and she can have my attention. And honestly just mentally, i know I can only comfortably have just one.
Absolutely loved hearing what you have decided to name your daughter when you announced her name because I had a niece with the same name. Sadly she passed last month at 20 months and I wouldn’t have been able to even imagine when I was watching the name reveal video that one day my niece would be gone 💔
i agree, of course you'll take your daughter to church! i mean, why would you not? obviously you want her to know God. there's truly nothing better than having a personal relationship with Jesus, and as her parents you get to lead her to Him. God bless you guys 💜
I think they just wanted to know if like when she gets older, if she decides that's not the church for her or might not want to go at all, would you be okay with that or would you tell her she has to go like it or not.
I agree about the changing diapers as a bonding thing. As a single mom I used to bond in another way with my son (todfler now) while changing his diapers as a baby 🥺
I think that's what people need to understand - the difference between arguing and disagreeing. I don't have a child, neither married, not even in a relationship but I've already planned it out and offered it up to God. They would not be privy to all disagreements - as some things are just not for their ears - but yes certainly healthy for them to see a disagreement and see how it is resolved so that when they have one with their siblings they will follow. And IF there is an argument they would also see mummy and daddy apologising to each other (because the kids should learn that too). The person who said that Jess connects more to Makaiah than Gabe... apart from the fact that she was in her and then there is breastfeeding... we don't actually see every second of every day of their lives.
med student here. You actually get more room in your heart for another child because you are moving sooo much bc of your first child, so your heart grows. okay that was a joke haha I actually think one cannot imagine how much love one can feel …until he/she feels it
The iPad thing is easy. My son turns 3 soon and we haven't gotten an iPad nor will we. He obv watches tv but the timer in your best friend haha best of luck guys I'm sure you're great parents already ❤
I'm so floored by how you both responded to these assumptions. I've lived in a in home daycare for 25 years and also worked in one for about 8 years, so I KNOW good parents and happy kids when I see them. Trust me. And you guys have nothing to worry about. Keep the Lord in the center, remember to keep your spouse priority over M, and you and baby girl will be fine 💕
My friend put parental controls on the kids ipads! She has a password on it and once it hits an hour it asks for you to add more time and a password. She will only add time if needed but they basically get an hour and even if they get mad and take the Ipad they cant do anything on it.
My partner struggled to get a bond with our daughter for the first two years she was obsessed with me but over time she’s warmed up to everyone not just me 🤣it comes with time Gabe don’t worry. Father daughter bonds are so special but take time to make 🥰
Oh my god OMG OMG!!! I just paused the video cuz you guyssss are addressing my assumption 🤩🤩🤩 which said that you guys are exceptional parents!!! 👏 thank you Btw, I meant tht as a compliment bcz no doubt you guys are great parents ❤
That's a great thing about heart - it's bottomless if God Himself can live in there. Of course it's able to make room for all people in the world, existing and on their way to come.
“The goal is to raise a competent adult. Not a well behaved child.”👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Wow. Loved that❤️
Agreed, that was powerful! 🤯
Their child is so blessed to be raised by them
I really respect y’all’s decision to keep kaia off camera and keep the channel about you two! Not that there’s anything wrong with putting her on screen or anything, I just think it’s really beautiful to keep her safe and to yourselves for awhile. Love you guys💛
Yeah and not making money off their kid
@@Roooooo433 plus weirdos
people can still see pics of her online though 🥺 sadly
Actually there is something wrong with putting s child on the internet and making that child the main source of the channel/ money maker so im glad jess and gabe stayed just jess and gabe only now they're parents. There is absolutely everything wrong with family channels
They've officially reached the parenting era of calling each other "honey" 🥺
'' Jesus loves Makaiah lou,

Or because the things she do,

This is the sweetest and the most wholesome thing i have heard today😍😍😍
Unconditional Love :)
Completely agree 💕
That was so good 😍😍😍
Are makaiah’s eyes blue?

DANGGGGGGG
Jess is a lot more comfortable on camera, she’s more comfortable saying what she wants to, she’s more open about it too. I love that for her.
I remember when I got pregnant with my son, I cried so hard and freaked out one day that I wouldn't love him as much as my daughter. Lol. It crazy amazing how much room we have in our hearts/love.
Y'all are lovely parents...may God continue to give you wisdom in the way you raise your daughter ❤
I just loving seeing y’all in this phase of life 🥰 like Jess, I really feel like you’re thriving! Your personality’s are just… idk… happy! 💛💛

When Jess said “seeing him father my Daughter” ughh sounds amazing.. i love how Jess talks hihi
When Jess talked about playing school with her brother that unlocked a childhood memory 😂🤗😅love you guys ❤
Same!!
My brother got mad that I graded his papers in red pen and I told him he’d have to get used to it 😂
I hope one day I'll get to be a wife and a mother just like the way Jess is. Full of Love and Grace. ❤️
I hope so for you to being a wife is the best thing ever with one you love :)

5:58 THE SOUND EFFECT BROUGHT ME BACK TO THE OLDER VIDEOS hahaha loved that little moment of nostalgia
Taking a sip of my morning coffee, while hearing you say "But first... Coffee" while I say it with you, made my day💓
You two are incredible parents to Makaiah ❤it shows how naturally parenting has come to you. Beautiful little family. Sending so much love 🥰
8:12 jess: “it’s kinda hot in here”
gabe: “yea it’s because you are here”
*2018 sound effect* 😎😎😎
hahaha loved that
Parents are lame ( No offense )
Gabe: Oh it says no offense
Ohhh my gosh I was worried there for a second
Jess: Oh I like nearly got offended
😂😂😂😂 Their humor alone says it all.. they're not lame 🤣
Makiah has two amazing parents 💗 God bless your adorable little family 🥹
You guys are such amazing parents and it inspires me to want to be like you guys when I have kids 🥹
Love you guys so much! your videos have been the best thing over the years
All these parents stuff makes me emo.. I LOVE YOU GUYS
I just love watching your videos! Especially after a stressful day ❤
My parents screamed and argued in front of us.. when my husband and I are blessed to have children we will have disagreements in front of them and we will show them a healthy way to communicate ♥️
Homeschool is SO much easier now! So many curriculums online. The Good & The Beautiful is AMAZING!
This is so sweet! I didn’t even think to assume anything about you guys being parents I guess I just thought that it would come naturally to you 💛
the "but first, coffee". That got me, haven't heard that in a while. the nostalgia 😭❤
“I like nearly got offended” 🤣 I love Jess (&Gabe!&Makaiah!)❤️
READYYYY.. thank you for sharing your thoughts and taking the time!
Have a blessed day :D
My favorite couple and parents on RUclips ❤ y’all are so inspiring
I can’t believe that jess and gabe are much more mature parents than my own who are now 60 years old 🤣 i definitely learned how to be an adult the hard way
i missed yall😭❤️ i love yall,im going through long distance too,and i pray that it works out like your relationship
I still haven’t got my journal but im so excited for it Jess❤😊

Would love if you share share a bit more about your day with makaiah
- routine, naps, hows she sleeps all night!
I’m a new mom to a little cute potato who’s 2 weeks and a day old I still have much to learn. You two are doing amazing, keep up the lovely work ❤
Congratulations! Just wait - every new stage will be your new favourite. It just gets better and better! My daughter just turned one and she's SO much fun. Every single new skill or stage is just so beautiful in its own way and so exciting. It's a ride, but the hard times DO end and the great times just keep coming
@@memmamonsterrahr thank you for the kind thoughts and guidance. I’ve never been more tired but excited at the same time.
Y’all saying bye at the end of the video… unacceptable 😂 we need the “peace out, from Gabe & Jess CONTE”‼️‼️ it gives us real closure, okay?!🤍
I would love to see you guys do this again when baby girl is around 3 or 4 yrs.
Adding to favorites idk why I loved this sm💕so funny and honest 😂

You guys have opened up so much more after Makaiah … it’s lovely 😊
Love yall! Would love to see an updated couples/parents daily/night routine! As well as what yall do like date nights how often, i know saturdays now yall are doing no phone days, just ways yall find to connect and have a succesful marriage and relationship together
6 months?! Oh my goodness, time fliesssss how has it been 6 months I literally had to go to your Instagram to check I wasn't going mad
About how to love another baby as much as you love Makaiah, my dad had great anxiety when my mom was pregnant with my brother that he wouldn’t love him as much as he loved me.

Ahhh love you guys! 💕💕
Lmaoo Gabe overthinking about overthinking and Jess trying to stop him from finishing the question is hilarious
Jess is always beautiful, but there's something different in this video!! You look so gorgeous, Jess!!
Great answers guys!
Part 2!
“she tells me thingss” I love that 😆🤍

Exactly!!! I had to wait for Hannah Montana to be on tv. Unlocked a memory 😭😭
I think they just wanted to know if like when she gets older, if she decides that's not the church for her or might not want to go at all, would you be okay with that or would you tell her she has to go like it or not.
You guys are the best individuals, the best couple and going to be the best parents for sure ❤️
PS: did you guys change ur editor ?

My assumption: You are the coolest and most loving parents to baby Kiah 👶❣️
So calming to watch as always. But what happened to your intro and outros?🥲
Jess’s little scoff when Gabe said 4 kids😂
You are the cutest couple ever and the best parents wow!!
The iPad thing is easy. My son turns 3 soon and we haven't gotten an iPad nor will we. He obv watches tv but the timer in your best friend haha best of luck guys I'm sure you're great parents already ❤
