  • This was our journey home for the holidays for our son's very first Christmas. We haven't seen lines this long at the airport until now, the holiday rush is a very real thing.

    The best thing my dad did once I got married and had a baby was to never ever make us feel guilty about spending time away from him. He always said we should worry about ourselves first and not worry about sharing time. That automatically made us want to spend MORE time with him and maybe less with those that made us feel bad!

    I love how Matt leaves Griffin on the floor outside the bathroom and proceeds to call him "bro". Matt is doing great 😂

    I hope people see your channel & hold on to their first loves like you did. Nothing else could ever compare. Ride the ups & downs but always ride it out. Have 50th anniversaries, grandchildren, extended family. Stay together no matter what.

      That’s very sweet and might work out for some. But people can change so much from teens to adults, first love isn’t always meant to be. And that’s ok too.

    The way they look after griffen looks like they have been parents before the way that they look after him while vlog looks so stressful but at the same time they show that parenting can be hard and amazing at the same time(sorry if this dosnt make sense)

    A little advice when u put griffen in his little chair and he almost cured and u picked him up it’s better if he crys bc he will get used to being in hands and then he grows and he gets bigger and heavy u can’t anymore but Ofc if u wnat and love yall 💞 (I’m a mom on 4kids)

    Developmental specialist here!! Screens occasionally is totally ok! Especially with an educational show like ms. Rachel. As long as griffin isn’t sitting in front of it 24/7. A half hour- an hour a day if you need to get something done is perfectly fine.

    Guys, I haven’t even watched the video yet but last night I had an idea that would make a big difference. (Sorry this is serious) but for a video, maybe you could travel to a state that gets super cold and buy jackets/coats for those in need maybe finding a shelter or even going to schools and talking with the teachers or principals to see if they have families to suggest that could use warm coats. I’m blessed to have a warm room and clothes over myself but I can say with 100% seriousness- my area I live was literally -(negative) 26 degreesF for multiple days. People literally pass from freezing so I think that would be such a meaningful life saving video for you guys!❤ hope you had a wonderful Christmas and visit

    When griffin is older and can have lollipops like 2-3 I think during takeoff when you fly you should give him a lollipop to suck on during the flight and time he starts to get fussy/cry let him suck on the lollipop

    Super useful parenting tip I was once given…If the baby is being exclusively breastfed (no formula, baby food, or “real” food) then the sun can remove poop stains! Every time my babies had a blow out during the first six months of their life, I’d just hang their clothes out in direct sunlight. Always worked!
