Fly lady recommends shining your sink & having a clean kitchen before bed. I try to do that, but it doesn't always happen. Thanks for the reminder and motivation. I too love hickory farms 😄
I just wanted to say thank you! Your videos are helping me get through a tough time of motherhood. I love my kids and I love my life. But being a mom is hard! And I am so grateful I can see inside other moms lives through RUclips! Thanks Bonnie and Joel!
I watch your videos dear Bonnie because you have a wonderfull family that love to laugh and live a simple life. you are honesty amazing people.God bless you
You're kids have AMAZING manners! You and Joel are such great parents. your children never complain about what there eating or anything! WOW! hope when I have kids they are just as respectful and amazing as yours.
I do the same thing put my babies in the couter, of course only when I am standing right there.!. I love you because you are soo natural and relatable...
Those are awesome tips, my grandmother always told me "what you can do today don't leave for tomorrow". Your vlogs are fun, real and down to earth, that's why we watch them.
I put my kids on the counter too. Keeps them where I can see them and out of trouble! Love watching you guys. So relatable and honest! You don't stop showing something just because someone says something negative. I LOVE that you do you! Haters gonna hate! 😉
I have a hard time understanding people who "hate" or think it's weird that you sit your kids on the counter, or that you feed them all together from one spoon, or sometimes you feed them in the bathtub. Um....how are people not seeing those are brilliant mom moves when you have multiple kids??? HELLOOOO!!!! If they are on the counter, they are at YOUR eye level when you are feeding them, and talking to them, and they enjoy sitting up there! When you feed them all together from one container, you are saving dishes, plus it's kind of an endearing bonding moment to still feed them once in a while like that rather than them all feeding them themselves. Yes, they can feed themselves perfectly fine right now, but it's a cute thing to do to feed the kids as if they were still tiny babies. What's wrong with that??? It's not like it's all the time, it's a cute little thing you do that's all. And feeding them in the bathtub??? UH YAAAAASSSSS!!!!! The mess goes right down the drain! HELLERRRRRR!!!!!
I watch because it is so much like our home lol... I like seeing how you do things like daily tasks.. p.s we dry our sink out every night I grew up like that too.. I even got my husband accustomed to doing it too lol..:)
So stinking cute!!! Bonnie enjoy ever minute with your babies. They grow up so fast. My oldest 2 are married (my daughter is pregnant with our first grand baby) YAY!!! my youngest is engaged.... Seeing you with your kids takes me back to the silly wild crazy days when my 3 were little ☺️love,love you guys😘
Bonnie...you know why we watch you? You are a true family that is doing the right thing for her kids! You both know how to parent! Btw....I love your cleaning routine in the kitchen
your videos are honestly amazing! they make me so happy! whenever I see you've posted I get so happy and instantly watch! your my favorite RUclipsr! love from Australia!!!
Boston cookies like his fat cheeks or little bum! Hahaha that was the best! That was so cute him helping with the cookies! I love your little kiddos! 😍😍😍😍
Bonnie I LOVE the love that you have for your kids!!! You have made having four kids in a nice little house in Utah a dream of mine!!!! Maybe a little house in Georgia will have to do... but I seriously see you as such an inspirational mother figure! My mom was never family-oriented... not her fault, as she has faced many battles that have made her life not exactly as she had planned.. anyways, I tend to look up to you and your sisters and your mother as examples for how I want to lead my family one day. I'm a college student but at the end of the day I dream about what my family will be like!! Thank you for your vlogs, Bonnie!! Love from the east coast :)
I sat my babies on the counter also. It was perfectly safe because I kept a close eye on them just like you do. Love seeing Boston singing the abc song and counting while you cooked. Btw, your hair is so beautiful straight as well as curly. I also have naturally curly hair. Lincoln blowing on his food was so cute.
MOMMY TIPS: My kids are all grown now. It would be easier Boston if you put sugar in a zip lock bag and let him shake the bag with the dough ball in it... When my kids were little ... I buy a bag of M&Ms, They could only have the amount in the bag for as high they could count to.. So IF they could only count to 8 they got 8 of them out of the bag... I would tell them what the next number was.. IF the next day the got 9 they got nine.. if they didn't remember and only got to 8 they got 8. Cleaning as you go makes for a lighter load... Putting off cleaning till later... makes a load of work later.
Ah, the days leading up to Christmas are always crazy! Your kids are just like everyone else's this time of year, Bonnie, so don't worry about them seeming over the top! I think you are such a great mom. I love that Boston was helping you in the kitchen making the cookies. I haven't checked out the recipe yet, but they look very similar to a cookie my mom makes and she calls them Ginger Crackles. They are THE best cookie of all time, and you are right - they seem undercooked when you take them out, but they are perfect! xoxox Heather (St. Albert AB 🇨🇦)
Bonnie, I love watching your vlogs because it makes me feel like I'm not alone. I have two kids. A boy who is almost 5 and a girl who is 2. Even though I only have two kids I feel like you at the end of the day when the kids are going absolutely crazy! Lol I love how real you are with us and that u don't hide the hard or stressful or chaotic times. Your family also gives me hope that someday things will get better for us. Thank you Bonnie and Joel for sharing a part of you with us everyday. : )
Hickory farms is the best. I used to work at the booth in the mall with my dad when I was younger and I was the sample queen haha I made sure everyone got a sample. Now I walk by the booths and no ones out sampling you have to ask them to give you a sample?! Not as fun, like come up to me and offer me some sausage and cheese! 😂
One of the reasons I watch is because it makes me feel good about my chaos with my 2 and 1 years olds. And there is light at the end of the tunnel and they will play by themselves one day.
It sounded like Lincoln was trying to whisper after you called him naughty! By the way, when you were slicing the vegetables, I was hoping you'd slice up a kielbasa to cook with the vegetables! LOL!
Poor little Boston. Always getting bullied by the other two. Meanwhile, Bonnie looks on and thinks, "Olivia and Cody.. I'm so proud! Just like their mommy!" lol
I just love the dinners you make Bonnie! Similar things that my family enjoy. Would you consider doing a weekly dinner video sometime, where you show us recipes and what you've made for dinner?
I love your Christmas list! How about driving around and looking at Christmas Lights in your town? Bring Hot Chocolate in Christmas travel mugs! So fun!!
That's not weird at all Bonnie!! I HAVE TO make sure my kitchen is spotless before i go to bed so i can wake up to a clean kitchen! 🤗 Remember in your 50,000 subscriber video? you said the same thing "i don't know why you like to watch us!" haha and we still do almost at 450k! 😘
No one should tell you what YOU want to do with YOUR children. She can put her babies on the counter all she wants!! I'm 19 and even I understand that. Unless someone is harming them to the point where it is inhumane then maybe you can have a say. You have an amazing family Bonnie I hope to be a mother just like you one day!
I love your whole family and watch all of you. :) I started watching Ellie and Jared first. I don't even know how I found them. Lol! You have the cutest kids. Love your kitchen to btw so pretty. I love white kitchens. :) Happy Holidays.
+Bonnie Hoellein I'm Going back home tomorrow for a few and For some reason you came to mind. the way you vlogged NY , represented and fell in love with it was so great! A true NY'er at heart! :)
Bonnie, were you initially a little upset that Lincoln was a boy? I found out yesterday that we are expecting our 2nd boy, I was devastated at first as we were all certain I was carrying a girl and I have pretty rough pregnancies so was hoping we'd have a girl to "complete" our family. I know I'm so blessed to be able to have children so I should probabaly stop complaining but I can't help feeling a little upset, I'd love to have a Princess!
I hate how people bash mothers for having feelings! I feel guilty for not being overjoyed and am scared that this little guy won't be as awesome as our first son, I'm sure everything will be fine once he arrives ☺ I'm a little afraid that I'll always feel like a piece of me is missing if we don't ever have a girl 🙁 Thanks for your reply Bonnie, you made me feel a lot better xx
ZacandSophie there's nothing wrong with way you feel!! It's natural if you have. boy most times your going want girl. Or Bonnie's situation... I hate she got crap for it and you shouldn't feel bad for it love!!! Of course you feel blessed and you are but just like Bonnie said does she regret now of course not... once you hold your baby I can bank your not going care that it's a boy!!!! Many prayers and love sent. Bonnie: you are amazing 😉
I never thought a baby could be as cute as Boston but Lincoln is giving him a run for his money haha! lol
I love when you put the kids on the counter!! Some people just like to complain, smh, Bonnie you put a smile on my face daily!!
Love how Bonnie gets the kids involved in her daily tasks. Such sweet bonding moments I'm sure they'll remember for a lifetime x
I just love when you show us the random details of your life;They are relatable and/or a good lesson or tip! Thank you 🙂
If you look closely Boston actually pushed Cody and then Cody retaliates LOL, but I love how they both looked to see if mom was watching first.
Kirsten Whitby I thought the same thing. Glad someone else noticed it as well
Bostons face is hilarious when he's doing the side eye at Bonnie! Stinkers!
Stephanie Harrison f
You know. I saw that the first time and it totally didn't even register. Looks like they are both on the naughty list.
Lincoln's personality has been shining through lately! So funny...

I do the same thing put my babies in the couter, of course only when I am standing right there.!. I love you because you are soo natural and relatable...

Trudy Anderson That's a really good idea

Merry Christmas to your family from any Aussie family

Lincoln is so cute when he make its little tricks 😍😍
Lincoln was the sweetest when he was in his crib, 😍
bonnie reminds me of Leighton Meester:)
I've been saying that since the first time I saw her in Jackson's birth vlog, I wish Bonnie tell us if someone told her that too...
How rude
We watch because we love your crazy kids and you and Joely of course.
One of the reasons I watch is because it makes me feel good about my chaos with my 2 and 1 years olds. And there is light at the end of the tunnel and they will play by themselves one day.
Omg I just busted out laughing on the edit of Cody pushing Boston, and my mom was like what are you laughing at lol
It sounded like Lincoln was trying to whisper after you called him naughty! By the way, when you were slicing the vegetables, I was hoping you'd slice up a kielbasa to cook with the vegetables! LOL!
Love hickory farms! They have the best peppermint chocolate bark and little kisses
i totally remember being hyper in the evening times and just screaching and running around like a crazy! made my mom go nuts! 😅😆
Poor little Boston. Always getting bullied by the other two. Meanwhile, Bonnie looks on and thinks, "Olivia and Cody.. I'm so proud! Just like their mommy!" lol
lincon looks so much like your father bonnie
