Never apologise for feeling emotional. It’s natural for you to feel strong emotions. Big hugs. ❤
I think your very lucky to have your little girl I lost both of my twin girls , still born on my birthday they would be 24 now, but cause of they way it turned out I hate my own birthday
Babies are in heaven.
You video in and out
Look at that baby❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lauren and Mark you both are such good parents, so patient and soft spoken and we thank you for sharing your life journey and stories of your family with us. You have had such a hard past year and little Violet is a precious miracle to come into your sweet family. Never apologize for getting emotional when seeing something or someone that reminds you of sweet Magnolia, she will be with you forever. God Bless each of you. Love your videos. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️🌸🌸🌸
It’s okay to cry Lauren. You have so much love for both your girls. And maybe seeing those twins was a way for Magnolia to say hi. Bless you and your beautiful family.
I have to go to the Costco in S Florida and look for the pet toy plants!!!❤
There will always be an empty space in your heart. I lost my 1st son. Please don't feel that you need to explain Lauren as we understand. If you could find it in your heart to send prayers to my husband 🙏. He has terminal cancer and I don't know how much time he has. Side note... Congratulations to Donna 🎉.
Oh precious lady you don’t have to explain. Your momma heart is still healing ❤️🩹
Lauren great shopping video and you don't have to explain anything to us as your viewers. We know what you been through and how hard your journey has been. We love you and support you ALWAYS. Hope you have a wonderful summer. Love from Ohio
My sentiments exactly 💯 ❤
So well said
Yes ...We Love You ❣️
I just Love Ur Videos & Ur Family 😍
I feel the same way!! No explanation needed. We love u all and sweet little Violet is so adorable and growing so fast!! Love from SC!❤
Honey, I know exactly how you feel. In 1995, my husband and I lost our twin daughters, Daniella and Camilla, 24 weeks into our pregnancy. That was my first pregnancy and I had most the same issues you had. I now have 2 beautiful, healthy adult children. Such a loss is always with you and even 29 years later, something will trigger the emotions and it all comes flooding back. I want to thank you and Mark for sharing your story. You have opened your heart to your viewers and showed us how to struggle and grieve with grace.
I am so sorry for your loss. It is such a heartbreaking thing to have to go through but it also makes me want to be a better person. Thank you for sharing about your girls!
Oh Lauren! I’m crying right along with you God bless angel Magnolia and you and your sweet family
Crying is so cathartic. I cry with you, for you, for others and for me. Happy or sad. I love that you name Violet your sixth child. Magnolia will never be forgotten. 🥰
Oh my sweet girl don’t feel you have to explain it is a very hard time for you huge hug sending love from Queensland Australia 🇦🇺🦘🐨🦋
God bless you. As outsiders, we try not to bring up the subject of grief and loss, but it’s always in your heart.
It does get better over time, but it’s a process ❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🌈🌈
Two videos in one week - I don't know how you do it but I am here for every second you are willing to share! I can only imagine how it is to have lost one of your girls and then witness things around you that remind you of her or what might have been with both girls. It is only someone with your heart that can feel grateful that others stories have had different endings. You never have to apologize to us when your Mama heart is hurting. So thankful for you and Violet. So thankful for Mark and the boys and just everyone who surrounds you with love. God is so good! Can't wait to see the flower arrangement with the thrillers, fillers, and spillers... its been a couple summers! Prayers and blessings always to the Hamms (and the Slocomes). You are all just what is it all about! 💜💜💜
Thank you for such kind words. 💜
Never apologize for crying over the loss of your other baby but you will never forget that so you are loved and your family
Thank you! 🙏
Very true , I still crying over the loss of my 4 year old niece Ryeligh and by big brother Joel , life has its ups and downs
@@ThisAlaskaLifejamás te disculpes por sentirte triste por la pequeña Magnolia, ella era tu hija igual que Violet❤
Oh you sweet lady ,please don`t apologise for your emotions.Grief is like a roller coaster and hits often and sometimes unexpectedly i know.Sending you love and a comforting hug ,hold that precious little Violet close , she will be your sunshine on those rainy days.Xoxo
Thanks! I'm so grateful for her!
I get emotional when I see twins now, even just on video. Of course you’ll be emotional! I wish I had words of comfort for you, but I am truly speechless. Big big Hugs from Vancouver 😢❤
❤You are a very strong lady you are allowed to be emotional. Lots of Love Aileen❤❤
May God bless you and your family. It is OK to get emotional. Angels all around you. 😇❤
Beautiful baby girl!!! ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I totally understand the feelings. We lost a son a year ago and it's hard some days. Healing takes time but it does get better. I try and focus on the good things I remember. He is always with us. 🙏
My sincere condolences to you and your family 🙏
I am so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing your wisdom
The feeling that you have right now sometimes we get all types of feelings but when it comes through you just can't stop crying😢😢😢😢 and feeling that there's something else missing and part of you in your life when I saw that video you made me cry too😢 don't worry you'll get through your happiness and when you do be strong and look after yourself and your family blessing with all my heart 💕🐤🐥🐥💐🦆🌼🐓🦢🦢🦉🍁🏵️🐦🦤🦜🦜🌺🍂🍂🦜🦤🐤🐥🌿🦆🦉🐓💐 from Melbourne Australia 🌏🦘
I love seeing violet and Everett I think they look alike. Glad you found your flowers . Prayers and Love 💜🌺 From Oklahoma
It is expected of you as your a mom and experienced a loss. Thank you for sharing your feelings.
Thoughts and prayers. You are allowed to have those feelings. Its to be expected especially since you are such a devoted loving mom. Just know im sending you a huge emotional support hug..
God Bless You sweetheart 🙏🙏🙏Blessing’s
Lauren, please never feel bad for being emotional. The good and bad feelings are very real.
You are a wonderful and loving mama. God bless.
Little Violet is soo cute, and so aware of her surroundings. Thank you for sharing her new life with us. Children seem to make this ugly old world a much prettier place.
Let the tears come, mama. Magnolia was real. She is a true part of your family. Grieve for the loss of her and what should have been. Sending love to all of you.
Thank you 🙏
Hi, I loved the videos.. The cabin was great. I'm so sorry. I don't think that as a parent, you ever get over the loss of a child.
Big hugs for you Lauren, at 67, I still have a hard time with the fact I was never able to have kids. Breakdowns still happen. Thanks for sharing
Never apologize for what you feel.❤ keeping it bottled up is never a good thing. 💖🙂🌺
Lauren, always embrace how you're feeling and take the time to process those feelings. As a surviving twin with a Mom who went through a similar situation as your family, I watched my mom go through the same feelings as you and always being grateful for my survival and for those who were blessed to have both their babies. We have a set of twin girls who we have been blessed to see from the time their mom was still pregnant with them and now they are moms themselves. They had a very special place in my mom's heart and I know she is watching over them from the other side now. Prayers and my blessings for you all. Hugs.
Thank you 🙏
Good morning and happy Friday great shopping vlog love watching your videos ❤❤
It's always a fun time shopping at Costco with you and seeing the different items they have in Alaska. 😊
My dad always called them hip waiters. Instead of luxury camping, my family referred to it as glamping. Interesting dip net fishing 🎣
You brought tears to my eyes, you are such an amazing woman,wife and mother,we understand your emotions you are still in healing and our hearts go out to you, GOd bless you and your family sending love
Great haul baby Violet is so adorable. Enjoy your weekend Laura and family 💖
Thanks for taking us shopping with you seeing all the different things. Lauren your weather is like ours it is June and cold we have had 1 or two days of that big yellow thing in the sky 😂 ❤ from Scotland
Love the pineapple bacon sausage!! I was never blessed with children of my own but I feel your loss. Please don't feel it's necessary to explain your emotions. You cry and I cry right along with you.
Yogurts are great to freeze toss it in your lunches for school or work lunch as a cold pack.
Never apologize for grieving a loss! Which never ends and will come in waves, but the gratitude you have for Violet will help balance it! 🙏🏻🔥💯🥰
Thank you Lauren, it's official Alaska is now cheaper than my State of Victoria in Australia for groceries, I think your other Australian Subscribers would agree. I continue to watch your wonderful channel Lauren, but not commenting alot. My kindest thoughts to you, Mark, Hunter, Bennett, Western, Everett, Baby Violet, Luna and Maggie in the arm's of the Loving Angel's. From Australia 😘🦋🐞🙏
Love your videos Lauren!! Hugs to all ❤❤
❤ It’s always great to have a great cry, cleanses the soul, and just helps sometimes
Yes it does!
We truly understand and it is ok. Some have experienced this to and know what you are going through.
I always think its so sweet when people say hi to you at Costco when you’re shopping 💕💕
Always nice to see Donna at the checkout. Congrats 🎊 to her 25yrs!!! You have a wonderful & loving Costco family💥💐✨
Lauren, you will never get over losing Maggie because she was a part of you. It's okay to get emotional; you, Mark, and the boys have Violet which is a blessing. Sending love and hugs to you and your family.
Big hug to you Lauren you can’t help getting emotional about losing your baby girl she will always be with you in your heart ❤
Thanks for nice video
It's been 32 years since I lost my angel. Valarie 😇 l was 25 weeks along. 😢 It's still tearful times. God bless you all and many prayers 🙏🏻 Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister 🙏🏻 ❤️
Glad you mentioned Gary because I was wondering if he was ok. It’s been awhile. Great shopping trip as usual.
You will always feel sadness when you see twin girls together , you’ve been through a lot , enjoyed you last video when you all went to the cabin , Violet is growing fast , enjoy her 😊xx
You went to hell and back to bring Violet into this world. Your pure emotion is beyond understandable. Sending love your way...❤
U are so strong and beautiful miss Lauren
I understand I lost my firstborn, a son. I have two daughters who are in their fifties and I am eighty-one. I still get teary thinking of my son. We love them, it's only natural.❤❤❤
Bless your heart ❤xx
Just remember she in heaven and she will be your guardian angel until it's time for everyone to go meet her good to see you again take care and be safe from Colorado
Never ever apologize for your feelings. You have every right to your feelings, you and Mark lost a beautiful baby girl. I understand how you feel, it's been 37 years that I lost my first child. I still get emotional the week of Christmas. But the best thing is I have three beautiful grown boys. God Bless you Lauren and your family 🙏❤
I’m so sorry for your loss. I suspect Christmas is going to be a bit hard for me as well. Much love to you.
iT'S OK!
Hang in there Lauren. I can’t even imagine the feelings when you see twins. Grief is a very hard thing. I lost my mom a little over a year ago and sometimes it just hits you out of the blue.
Lauren your still healing and Violet will always have her special Angel by her side.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏
Lauren, my heart broke for you as you’re still processing the loss of Magnolia. ❤🙏🏻 I’m praying for you. You have a beautiful family.
Thank you so much!
❤😍💐🇳🇱
❤
You don’t have to explain.wWE UNDERSTAND.MY MOM DOES BECAUSE SHE HAD 2 miscarriages in between my sister and bother . We love you and is praying for you god bless
Thank you 🙏
Lifting you up in prayers. Sending you hugs and love from Arkansas! 💕💕💕
Families are Forever ❤🙏❤️
..u made me hungry also..so I made a crunchy peanut butter and peach jam sandwich 🥪😋..🤭🤭...
Yum!
No need to explain you are such a strong lady you are still healing after the loss be kindto yourself ❤
praying for you it is very hard. god bless
Hi from Kentucky, you should try freezing the gogurts and eating them frozen they are delicious. Love your family
Thanks for the tip!
I may be wrong but I think your grief must be more complicated because of Violet. I'm not saying that as she's a negative but being so thankful that she's here and having her to take care of would be such a blessing but doesn't give as much room to fully grieve. I hope that makes you sense.
Totally makes sense. It’s a tricky dynamic.
Aww honey love you so much. It's good to share and talk about 😢 our feeling's..... Don't never say sorry 😞 As Violet gets older I'm sure you'll tell her twin. Now go home and hug you're baby girl and boy's.🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Grief sneaks up on you. Don't apologize for feeling all the emotions, you are in my prayers. My daughter lost our twin grandsons nearly 11 years ago, and we still have our moments. Sending love to you and yours.
❤ i love You 🩷
Hi thanks for taking us to Alaska I love Alaska I would love for you to take us camping with you so I can see what you cook on your camping trips
I have lots of past camping videos. Check out our week in seward ruclips.net/video/4Z1DOd1Ydy8/видео.htmlsi=9sdXltUpxjE45eDc
I am so sorry for your loss. It will never go away. My prayers are with you.
You were reading my mind, because I was about to ask if Gary was still at Costco since we haven't seen him in a while. Tell him he was missed!
Yes, sad to not see him very often!
I just also wanted to say the Costco employees are amazing in Alaska. I loved that she hugged you & ❤️ I cried when you cried. Let it out. Never apologize ❤
That was a good video I love seeing Violet. There were quite a few issues with your camera cutting in and out
Thanks for letting me know, I will have to watch it back because it was fine before I uploaded it.
Costco in my state has milk in the box
I'm so happy for you and your family because losing a family member is very emotional. Glad to see Ms. Violet is growing and holding her head up on her OWN. GOD Bless you and the family. ❤
You don't have to explain. You are blessed with a great family to support. Ms. Violet is getting so big and adorable. Love babies with fat cheeks. We love you Lauren.
Violet is so precious and you are such a great momma to her and your 4 boys!
Oh Lauren I wish I could just give you the biggest hug!! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and rawness with us. I've fallen in love with your family and have enjoying following you these past few months plus binge watching old videos after I found your channel. 😊 ❤
It’s called triggers honey and those little girls were your trigger today . I know how that can be . I’m sorry for your pain . You are so loved sending you a big hug from a mama who understands . ❤
oh Laureen so sorry you got upset huge warm hugs love Gina UK XX
Thanks so much
Love this video…totally understand the triggers…tender emotions…🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I hate those new chicken bags
U should have bought the stuffed plants for violets room
Cute idea but her stuffie shelf is overflowing!
Continued prayers
First off I want to just reach out to give you a great big Alaskan bear hug
Your loss is deeply felt
You do bring a lot of joy to peoples lives who get to watch what you do. And now thank you for the shopping trip i’m in the burbs north of Chicago and comparing prices the prepackaged stuff the same if not a little bit higher maybe 5 to 10%.
The fruits and vegetables may be 10 to 20% higher, but they look about the same. Most of that stuff is probably got to travel the same distance to me as it does to you lotta California production. I am happy to see that there’s more of the large box stores. opening them up in Alaska, gives you a little bit of a chance to make choices instead of settling for what they have.
Thank you!
Ugh I just went grocery shopping this morning and spent almost $300. It’s ridiculous the cost of food now.
It sure adds up fast!
@@ThisAlaskaLife it really does. Almost half my paycheck went to that.
HUGS my friend. I too lost a twin. Its my oldest son who is now 27. I was so so sick and then on bedrest with an emergency csection because I did not realize I was in labor. He was 13 lbs 10 oz. He has never been deficient in anything. I know GOD will allow Miss Violet to continue to grow and thrive. PTL
Thanks for sharing your wisdom! So much love to you.
Always great videos! Thanks 🙏🏽
I think you can grow magnolia trees in Alaska
Never seen one 🤔 I did see one in Vancouver when I was there
No need to apologize Lauren..you and Mark will always grieve for her. It's natural. 😢 i love that you share your life. You are REAL..unlike some RUclipsrs thats why we ❤ you so much! I love that you explain all about Alaska & you show us the beauty etc!❤ TY for another great video ❤❤❤❤
