Okay the clip of your three friends all around Theo just looking at him just radiated happiness and friendship and support it made me cry. Congrats Tess, he’s gorgeous.
I absolutely love the transparency you give when talking about your experience in motherhood so far. It takes a lot of strength to admit it’s not all perfect. Love it and love seeing your beautiful family find the groove of it all! So excited to see more videos 🤍🤍🤍
Hey Tess! Our 5 month old wasn’t a fan of having his arms swaddled in the Snoo from the beginning either but as soon as we let his arms be free at night he was so happy and content in it! There’s a section in the Snoo manual that talks about how to use the swaddle with the arms out. We started with one arm out and eventually two. He’s been sleeping through the night ever since making his change!
First of all: tess you look incredible ! Literally beautiful. Second: it feels like motherhood was made for you and you seem to have a great intuition when it comes to what to do, how to do it and what your family and Theo needs 😍💖
Seeing you in this lens brings a certain degree of nostalgia to us OG subscribers. I am so happy to see you as a Mommy and this journey. Enjoy it! I know you'll balance things out and I love what you give us. It's like seeing a friend & just being delighted about how your life is turning out... More blessings and sleep your way Tess!
It's great to see you and your family getting along and finding your way into this new season!! Take your time girl, this is probably the biggest adjustment ever! I appreciate your honesty and integrity as you navigate this new time; I think you're handling it so gracefully! Praying for you guys 💕
Still find it amazing how long its been. I started watching you when you did a couple of your Vampire Diaries get the look videos. Now, you’re talking about your own baby and pumping. 😅 I hope I get to meet you in person soon! ❤️
So nice to hear about realistic postpartum experiences! I had a rough ride the first 10 weeks I'd say especially with struggling with bub who was slow to gain weight, it's very stressful! All the best 💕💕
And also everything you described about Theo’s sleeping situation happened to us with our baby. No swaddle and always wandering eyes. He’s 1 now and sleeps with us in bed. I couldn’t fight the lack of sleep anymore lol
Seeing you as a new mama is the CUTEST/SWEETEST thing ever!!! I have watched your videos for years now and always thought you would be awesome as a mama.... I love this!! I am expecting, and hearing you mention you dealt with postpartum made this all so real!! Love it and appreciate you and your family!!
Tess I so appreciate you being real about the experience, cause I saw you looking beautiful with makeup at the beginning and was like “wow I don’t want to watch this because that was not my experience” and I had a crazy similar birth experience to you- but hearing you be like “nothing is normal and I wasn’t okay” is so refreshing and is the reason you have so many fans! Sending love and light to you and your sweet boy!
This is so crazy. I’ve been watching you for YEARS before Patrick! So nice to see you now with your family 😩 especially your handsome baby boy omgggg. So happy for you!!!
Soak up the snuggles while you can! I used to feel guilty too just snuggling on the couch all day, but at a certain point (and way sooner than you think) they stop letting you snuggle them! :(
I really appreciate that your vlogs aren't only about Theo. Don't get me wrong, he's the most precious baby I've ever seen, but I really like that you add some other parts of your day. I tried that salad subbing the croutons by an apple, and it's the best salad ever. Thank you!!
Hey Tess! Our baby boys are 1 day apart (mine was born June 16th) Its amazing to see someone go through this journey at the exact same moment, i cant want to see baby Theo reaching milestones and growing with you. You have made yourself a beautiful little family ❤️
Love this video! So happy for you and your little family. I’ve been following you for years and even met you in NYC a few yrs ago. I have a 5 month old myself. Motherhood is the toughest yet most rewarding jobs we can have. You’ll learn little tips and tricks every day. Enjoy the snuggles and watching their personality grow every day. Truly precious!
You guys are just the most darling parents. I know these vlogs don't show everything, but boy does it look like you guys are naturals. Still so, so stoked for you.
Massaging the kale with an acid like lemon juice or acv breaks down the cell walls of the kale and softens it. Literally goes from tough to tender in 2 minutes! Salt also helps
First of all Theo is super cute, just enjoy those snuggly days when you can just sit down with him on you enjoy them. He will grow out of that phase so fast you would not know what just happened!
When you massage the kale you’re supposed to do it with an oil. It helps break down the kale so it’s easier to digest. Also is this salad supposed to be like the harvest salad from sweetgreens?
I remember watching the beginning of you and Patrick and now I see you both as parents and it makes me so happy to see that the love you guys have resulted in a perfect and beautiful human being! I'm so happy for you guys and in a weird way, because I never meet y'all, I'm so proud!! Lots of love from Brazil
An easy way to candy nuts is over the stove. Take any nut you like, lightly toast it over med-high heat, then add pure maple syrup to coat the nuts (1/4-1/2 cup per 1 cup nuts), and cook over med-low heat until thickened. Let cool until hardened. Delicious! You can also add some chili powder to add some spice!
Having kids are literally no joke lol!I don’t understand young couples who keep having multiple kids now days like 4,5,6,7 it’s crazy!Anyways you’re doing amazing momma 🥰
I would love to know what it's like not having any help from family. I can't imagine. I had major post-partum issues and a baby that did not want to be put down and would not sleep unless held. She has blossomed into a very independent toddler and enjoying this phase so much!
Your little family is beyond beautiful:) I feel so much joy coming from your smiles and I can feel how much you guys love him!! He’s so cute! I’m so happy for you!!!!!🥰🥰🥰
Omg, for some reason I haven't watched you in a couple of years, but it feels like I never stopped. And now you have a beautiful baby boy? It's so crazy to know I grew up watching you. I love you, and if you see this- I hope you guys are having a good day!
This is such a cute first vlog with Theo! I'm sorry about the difficulties at the beginning but the most important thing is that you and Theo and Patrick now are good! ❤️ Theo is so cute and stunning😍❤️
Hoping to have a baby in about 5-7 years. I know you can’t always plan life like that. It’s very unpredictable but I know that I do want to be a mother and I’m so happy watching you and Patrick become parents to Theo who is incredible already. Sending you all lots of love 💫 can’t wait to see you all continue to grow as a family.
This video is so wholesome🥺🥺 I’m so happy for both of you for this amazing next chapter of life. I’ve been watching since 2015 so this is making me emo hahah🥲❤️
Rydel Funk here on RUclips made a video about her feeding schedule and linked her parents book on how they raised 5 children, I highly recommend it was so informative.
I’ve found that putting the Elvie flange on my nip and checking the position first, THEN pushing the pump on, is best to make sure it’s on my nip correctly!
Hey Tess, do you recommend the stroller you have?! I considered buying some stroller that come with bassinet but frome what I see in the internet it's not that necessary, and sometimes it just a waste of money....
Aww bless his little heart! He is literally the sweetest little baby! Thank you for sharing such a sweet and beautiful video with us! Sending lots of love to you guys!
Anyone else think that Theo was a mini Patrick at first - but now looks SO much like Tess?! Such a beautiful family x
Yess i said the exact same thing. He's Tess twin!
Yes for sure!
EXACTLY what I think!!
I still can’t believe y’all are parents. Theo is just precious 😍.
Okay the clip of your three friends all around Theo just looking at him just radiated happiness and friendship and support it made me cry.

Theo slowly falling asleep in Patricks arms at the end is soooo cute 🥺
First of all: tess you look incredible ! Literally beautiful.
Second: it feels like motherhood was made for you and you seem to have a great intuition when it comes to what to do, how to do it and what your family and Theo needs 😍💖
“Motherhood was made for you” is the sweetest compliment 💕
The end made me tear up. I just love how much you love your little family, that tight bond really shows.

oh my god, he is just a bundle of cuteness! he's the perfect mix of Tess and Patrick
Also you can tell how much love little babe is surrounded by, the clips with your friends and him make my heart so happy!
Still find it amazing how long its been. I started watching you when you did a couple of your Vampire Diaries get the look videos. Now, you’re talking about your own baby and pumping. 😅 I hope I get to meet you in person soon! ❤️
you noticing what Theo likes and doesn't and making changes to make him happier shows what an amazing mother you already are !
I have so much respect for new moms. Can't imagine how difficult that transition can be! Props to you, you're doing it so gracefully.
Such a beautiful family, love seeing Theo! x
I LOVE that you said his best friend and not 'crush' when he was looking at Skye (is that the spelling??).
Theo looking at Tess in the beginning like “my mom is so beautiful 😍”
So nice to hear about realistic postpartum experiences! I had a rough ride the first 10 weeks I'd say especially with struggling with bub who was slow to gain weight, it's very stressful! All the best 💕💕
Nothing like a baby laying on his mama ❤️I’m so happy for you guys! The first few months are SO hard, but looks like you guys are doing great.

Thank you for being so transparent about your life! You guys are doing amazing I’m sure 🤍

He’s perfect, enjoy every minute! My baby boy is 30 now. You blink and they’re grown!

After these little clips at the end…I‘m in tears 🥺 this is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing this with us, Tess!💜🌈

You have made yourself a beautiful little family ❤️
I can already tell Theo is going to be such a smart and creative like boy, love your videos. 💙👶🏼

You massage the kale with oil to help breakdown the toughness of the leaf & infuse the leaf itself with flavour. It makes it easier to chew & digest.

the clips at the end were so wholesome! 🥺🤎
Theo is literally a mini Patrick!! So sweet 🤍
First of all Theo is super cute, just enjoy those snuggly days when you can just sit down with him on you enjoy them. He will grow out of that phase so fast you would not know what just happened!
