i literally started crying when flynn gave colleen a kiss when they were watching those videos, it was so endearing and so lovely to see him growing up to be such a loving kind boy. you’re doing an amazing job raising him colleen and erik!
Tortilla talk question: have you ever thought about miranda discovering the miranda rights and then re writing them? I think it would be hilarious. Also thank you for helping me with my chronic pain, depression and anxiety. I've been watching your vlogs since before quarantine and you really do brighten up my days. Cannot wait to see you have an amazing year with your husband, Flynn and the twins finally being home! I love you❤❤
@@hannahbanana3298 I think it's, "you have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law... etc" i had no idea they were called miranda rights either had to do some googling!
I can't get over how well you're doing at keeping Flynn involved and making him continue to feel loved and special while taking care of new borns! (Yes they're two month olds, but they're the size of/act like new borns) You are such a good mama and Eric is such a good father (even though we don't see it as much on camera, you always tell us all the awesome parenting things he does behind the scenes!) and Flynn, Wesley and Maisy will always remember and treasure that. I don't know how you do it (and if I had to guess you'd say you don't know either) but I'm blown away and inspired by it. Awesome job!
If you ever feel like you’re not giving Flynn enough attention, just know that he will always remember his dance parties with his parents. Switching it up and having him do it in the car it probably so exciting for him! You guys are great parents ❤️❤️
Flynn smiling watching his ‘Baby Flynn’ videos was so precious. The bond you have with him is so special, so pure, so beautiful to continue to see grow. You are doing so well - you and Erik. Much love to you all 🤍✨
Yes yes yes! Colleen you know I LOVE YOU AND YOUR WHOLE FAMILY👨👦👧👩👴👵👩👨👦👧👩👧👈💖👉👦👦👧😍😘💗💑💏😍😘💗💑💏. I feel like I'm a part of the family. Almosta tad bit jelly. Lol like low key want to be a part of ur fam bam.love u too much. 👩👨👦👧💖🏠👪💖
I love how you say "hanging out with" or "playing with" instead of "watching" or "babysitting" when you talk about an adult being with your kiddos. It's such a small thing but I think it does a great job of including your kids and not talking down to them or making them seem like they're a burden in any way! You're a fantastic mama, Colleen :)
Yes I adore the friendship they have!! He is part of the family 🥰 That is my question though, Colleen said he came back to watch Flynn. How much time does he have on his own? I want Kory to find his soul mate so we can watch their videos as one big happy family 🙏 We love Kory and the whole Stocklin/Ballinger family 💕
Kory showing a photo of him when your talking about the insta girls with sunlight… I’m dying!!!!! Edit: does Flynn ever use the door into the twins room from his without you realizing it just in general?
@@rileighmichelle110 kory is Colleen's best friend, they used to live together. He is also Colleen's editor and who Flynn is referring to when he says "uncle coco"
i had a c section about 7 hours ago. i watched your channel every upload my entire pregnancy and you gave me the courage and empowerment to take the c section head on i ended up testing positive for covid and they weren’t going to allow my partner to be with me and me being sick scared 19 and on my first baby this really freaked me out but i was ready and i think you prepared me and reassured me the most because you’ve overcome so many challenges with pregnancy and birth and postpartum i just want to say thank you and this probably makes no sense but anyway i love you and appreciate you putting your life on youtube because it comforts me and makes me feel like women are strong and can do anything and boosts my self esteem thank you
Warms my heart to see Flynn so happy watching himself as a baby. I think he realizes how sweet of parents you are to him, and I think it makes him feel special!! 🥰🥰
Tortilla talk question: Hey Colleen, weird question, Do you think you would be able to remember/how much would you remember of your live show without any practice or preparation? For some reason I find this very interesting since you’ve done your live show hundreds of time and there have been many different versions of it. Thanks ily
Adhd is more to do with daily stuff. Like when it comes to my daughter I'm on it etc but housework paperwork getting organised that way and stuff Is a lot harder.
It’s probably a mix of improv and scripted stuff. Like, there’s some bits that are pre written but at the same time, she just probably just goes off the audience’s vibes, and just goes with the flow. At least, that’s my take on it.
I don't know if Colleen will ever see this, but I just wanted to thank you. I am a teenager with anxiety and your vlogs have been so comforting over the past years. You are a great part of my daily routine and I feel better after I watch your videos. Thank you!
Hey Colleen! Love ya girl! One of the things I tried to get my twins from bottle to breast was trying to do a breast feed for a short time before every feeding. Even if it’s like 2 minutes, just getting in the habit of practicing once at every feeding and then topping them off with a bottle. Then as they get bigger and stronger it’ll be easy and maybe less bottle feeds after and hopefully eventually stop bottles altogether. If your supply is good, which it sounds like it is, I think it could be a matter of practice and growing! It’s something I tried and it did help! It could take lots of time and practice, but you’re so amazing and determined that I’m sure it will help!!! My heart is with you my friend. You’re doing such a great job with your beautiful family. Love and hugs! ❤️
Tortilla talk question: Does the nanny come by often? You mentioned you liked a person but you haven't said if they started the job yet? I love your videos, no matter what kind of day I'm having, they always lift up my mood
My daughter and I (both with ADHD) have been watching a TON of your stuff the past few months and she kept saying "I think Colleen is like us, mom." She'll be thrilled to know her ADHD radar is working XD Meds are so helpful. I'm still trying to find one that works for me!
I was sobbing watching how sweet and affectionate flynn really is with you ❤️ he is just the most perfect little dude, and he’s so lucky to have parents like you and eric!! you both are doing such a great job, keep going mama!!
I’m a huge fan of Colleen and just knowing that she has ADHD too and she’s going to the same thing when she’s not on her medicine kind of makes me feel like I’m not alone
You're not alone! I find colleen talking about adhd to be really validating too, it's so nice to know that other people are out there struggling with the same things.
I met you through Miranda in high school, and girl, SIS HAD A HOLD ON ME! My teachers even knew I was a fan because it literally became one of my stored accents. Needless to say, I love Miranda but the last video made me realize as a new college graduate(with a Voice Degree too!), I totally have grown out of that phase. I love you for making videos for everyone, your videos encouraged and inspired me to grow up. Your vlogs are more mature and intimate while still holding that creative silliness that can still be present as an adult. I’m still watching Miranda tho.. even tho sis is annoying, I take it as “my girl(you!) being creative again, let me go ahead see what she talking bout’”. Keep being a star!
Tortilla talk question: How has your mental health been lately? I just want to make sure that along with the twins and flynn, you're taking care of yourself too. You are an amazing mom, truly an inspiration. Ilyyyyyy

Oh man! Getting back on my ADHD medication after having my baby it was like the sun came out and burned off the thick fog I had been living in for a year. It was amazing.
Colleen, you are incredible! Thank you for being open, real, and vulnerable with all of us! I’m a mom of 4 and I struggle with depression/anxiety. 3 of my kids have ADHD and other issues and life gets HARD!!!!! I appreciate this glimpse into your life and how you share the good and the bad. 😌
I’m 33. I discovered you a long time ago through Miranda, and I gotta admit that although she’s not really my thing anymore, YOU as Colleen are my absolute favorite RUclipsr to watch! So I’m happy she led me to you. Lol. To sum it up, came for Miranda, stayed for Colleen. 🥰 And of course I’ll always still support all of your endeavors!
Miranda was such a big thing when I was in elementary and middle school (I'm 17) and the style of humor was never really my thing, but I have watched these vlogs since quarantine started basically and I really like Colleen, just not Miranda!
I’m living for these vlogs where there’s more happy tears than sad tears, I know it’s still hard but you’re killing it girl ❤️❤️ your glowing and you’re whole, we appreciate you so much 🥰❤️ love- your diary 🤣❤️
Just have to say, I started watching you from your vlogs and not because of Miranda. I love watching you, listening and seeing you grow into such an amazing person!! Miranda is now just a bonus
Tortilla talk question: When Erik eventually has to go back to long filming days will Flynn go to a day care, or a pre-school program? Just wondering. I absolutely love you guys!!
Tortilla talk: What is Flynn's favorite part of being the big brother? Also absolutely love you! I know life is hard, but you're doing amazing. Medication for your mental health is so important!! 💜💜💜
I almost cried seeing flynn react to baby flynn! I never realize how much he’s grown since I watch him almost everyday but looking back, he’s grown so much! we definitely need more of this❤️❤️
I loved the side by side of Flynn now and baby Flynn, and seeing him still making some of the same expressions and smiles! I love that kiddo, and so does my son! 🤗
Tortilla talk question: do you have any allergies? If so, what do you do to avoid the things you are allergic to? Are there any special own tips and tricks you have? /// Btw All of ur children are SO cute, seriously I’m getting baby fever from here. I love watching your videos thx for doing what you do 🤍
I love truck tunes my son loves it so much. He also loves blippi and the truck songs he has. If Flynn hasn't seen it you should show him blippi excavator songs. He also does a lot of learning videos. Being in the pandemic with a baby we stayed away from most people so we taught him to play with toys he picks what he likes but instead of being around other kids and seeing how they play blippi has taught him a lot about everything outside of our little family. Like aquariums and kids play places. He picks up on things so fast he knows most of his abcs can count to 10 and speaks in sentences. He will be 2 in February and im always amazed with watching him learn and grow. Watching your channel has helped me think of things to do with a little boy while being home so much, so thank you for that. And every time I watch your videos and he hears flynn he stops what he is doing to come running to " see the baby" lol. He thinks Flynn is the coolest ever lol.
Also the bulldozer dance by blippi is one of my sons favorites. It's not the bulldozer song it's the dance one where blippi shows him to dance like he is a bulldozer and when the music stops he freezes and then dances when it comes back on. It reminded me of that when Flynn told you to wait to dance lol
Flynn is such an amazing little boy. He so sweet with his baby brother and sister. The fact that he likes watching vlogs of when he was a baby with you, melts my heart. ❤❤❤
tortilla talk question: do you think any of your kids have similar personalities to your parents or eric’s parents? or do they look like them? love u so much!
my adhd neurodivergent self hears you, i legit can't function without my meds and when i go off of them all of a sudden i have a massive appetite, i forget everything, no thoughts come to completion, i'm ten times more impulsive but also my comedic abilities improve
Colleen, I've been following you for years, since I was really young. I've grown up seeing you be the best example of an amazing mom. When Flynn came I would watch all your baby updates and play with my dolls like you would parent Flynn. Now I'm a teenager and I'm watching you parent the twins and I'm thinking of how I will parent my kids in a couple years. I don't know if you know this or not but you are truly and amazing mom. You do whatever you can to be the best mom, and that makes you amazing. The love you give to your kids is never ending motherly love. Lots of love Colleen 😘❤❤
For Erik: I really love a show called timeless and I haven’t watched it since I started following you guys and today I watched an episode with Erik in it!! I got so excited and my parents thought I was a weirdo! Just thought I should share!! Xx
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for talking about your ADHD medication!! There is so much stigma attached and as Mum to a little girl on medication, when people say it actually help, it helps normalise and take the stigma away. So thank you! Medication changed her life after we tried everything for years. She’s now thriving at school and one day she’ll change the world so thank you. I’ll show her your video later and she will feel like a super hero! 💕
That is the sweetest thing that he likes to watch those older videos with you! He loves those memories, you can see it all over his face! Watching him-watch those he looks almost nostalgic! He has little dreamy eyes and looks to you so endearingly. Your a great mother Colleen! Don’t you forget it! Same about Erik as a father! You all have brought up such a sweet boy!!
Tortilla talk question: have you thought about writing a song using things Flynn has said? I love “Happiness is very Happy” and “The Hug Song” so much and I think it would be awesome to have one written by Flynn.
Hey Colleen! I just wanted to say a huge thank you for sharing your life with us. I’ve just moved back to my apartment after being back home since the pandemic started and it has been a rough shift, It’s been hard missing my family and my dogs every single day but your vlogs are a big safe space for me and make me feel like home, so thank you very very much. Sending my love to you and your family always
i just went back to college after being home for winter break and was thinking about how i always love watching these blogs before bed. i think it’s nice to watch a family and colleen being a mom since i don’t get to spend as much time with mine
@@krabby-patty She’s clearly able to do both. To Colleen, vlogging doesn’t seem all that different from picking up a phone and calling a friend or taking time to write in a journal. Mothers can do things they enjoy and still be good mothers to their children, and surely don’t need people on the internet judging them for it or telling them how to parent.
Even Flynn knows you can’t start dancing until the beat drops 😂❤️ also Colleen, you’re already raising one great little human being, and I’m so excited to watch the twins grow into the same amazing little people like their older brother. You’re doing so great mamas, I hope I can be at least a fraction of the kind of mother you are.
I'm a mom of 5 with another on the way! 100% never get any thing done when planned. I love watching these videos, you are such a great mama and so relatable. Thank you for making these!
Glad to hear your feeling like yourself again. I know there's a lot left in that brain of yours. Let me say this, Miranda is one of the most genius characters ever created. I think every once in a while, we all would like to lose our filter. Miranda gets to be that every day. Lucky girl. Peace and Love.
I know this isn't a tortilla talk question but hear me out.. Colleen's journey from having her angels seperated from her in the nicu to where she is now really reminds mme of the song; I See The Light from Tangled. ( listen to all the lyrics carefully) "And at last I see the light, and it's like the fog has lifted" - Those specific lyrics really stood out to me especially due to the fact when Colleen described her experience of being seperated from her babies as being "foggy" or "feeling lost in the fog" Love you Colleen, give Wes and Maisy hugs from me!
I love you so queen. You are the sweetest kindest most caring amazing talented human ever. I could never thank you enough for all you have done for me in my life. You are the best mom ever to the sweetest cutest toddler ever with the biggest personality and to Wesley & Maisy. Erik is so loving supportive and encouraging. You are the most beautiful person inside and out. You have benefited my life in so many ways and have had such a positive impact on me. Thank you for making me smile daily and bring joy to my world. I truly don’t know the person I would be without you. I’m so proud of you and all you have accomplished in your life. There are no words to describe how much you mean to me and how amazing you are. Thank you for being the sunshine in mine and so many others life. Thank you for getting me through tough times and making me so happy. Love you to the moon 🌙 and back. 💜💕❤️💙🌻🍪💛🌵🐢🚗
What a gift to Colleen and Eriks children! Watching themselves grow up! Every major highlight is there. Flynn pronouncing water. Or taking his first steps. Or watching his parents fall in love! How damn special. The twins , just how much they are loved! All the future milestones they will accomplish. Its a record of their lives. Couldnt be more priceless.
I’ve been going through some depression and your videos have helped me a ton. My fiancé has even mentioned that he hasn’t heard he laugh like I do when I watch your Miranda videos. Haters Back Off! So excited for you to be back! ❤️
Tortilla talk question: I love your pearl necklace and the idea that it is for Maisy when she gets older, so precious! But you mentioned that you have a similar idea for Wesley and Eric But it was a Christmas present, so you didn’t want to ruin the surprise, so now that its after Christmas, would you mind telling us what it is? 👀 Thank you ☺❤
it was rly nice to hear you talk about medication even briefly! i too am on medication and it don’t know any of my friends who are (taking medication) and they often put down medication which i try not to take personally. so it’s nice to hear someone like you talk abt it!!
Watching Flynn watch him self before bed was adorable it truly makes me think of the future when he is older looking back on the amazing captures of his life will all your content ❤️ love this so much
Tortilla talk question: I have bin on the exact same ADHD meds almost my whole life but, a bit ago I noticed it has not seemed to be working that well even after doubling my dose. I was wondering if that has ever happened to you and if it did what you did what did you do about it. I was also wondering if you have also had weird side effects from you medication
Thank you for making my Saturday night. Seriously you guys bring me so much joy. Everyone remember this Monday on Tia's Instagram live. For childhood cancer the same charity Colleen donates to every year for her birthday.
i literally started crying when flynn gave colleen a kiss when they were watching those videos, it was so endearing and so lovely to see him growing up to be such a loving kind boy. you’re doing an amazing job raising him colleen and erik!

@@hannahbanana3298 they are the rights that people get read when they get arrested. It's called getting mirandized because they are the miranda rights

I love how during the car dance party, Flynn was like “WAIT” and then started dancing during the chorus 😂 That’s some musical intuition!
Wait for the hook! 😄
Ask Erik lol he knows the score HEEHEE, love from England xx
Kory just seems like the absolute best 🥺💞

Miranda was such a big thing when I was in elementary and middle school (I'm 17) and the style of humor was never really my thing, but I have watched these vlogs since quarantine started basically and I really like Colleen, just not Miranda!
watching Flynn watch himself as the a baby is the best thing ever MORE of this please :)
Your relationship is Flynn is so beautiful to watch. Like it almost brings me to tears. Parent goals.
Flynn has a huge personality. I love him. Looking forward to seeing the Twins personalities too.
I’m living for these vlogs where there’s more happy tears than sad tears, I know it’s still hard but you’re killing it girl ❤️❤️ your glowing and you’re whole, we appreciate you so much 🥰❤️ love- your diary 🤣❤️
Just have to say,
I started watching you from your vlogs and not because of Miranda. I love watching you, listening and seeing you grow into such an amazing person!! Miranda is now just a bonus
Tortilla talk question: When Erik eventually has to go back to long filming days will Flynn go to a day care, or a pre-school program? Just wondering. I absolutely love you guys!!
Tortilla talk: What is Flynn's favorite part of being the big brother?
Also absolutely love you! I know life is hard, but you're doing amazing. Medication for your mental health is so important!! 💜💜💜
Probably getting to talk and snuggle with them💖
I almost cried seeing flynn react to baby flynn! I never realize how much he’s grown since I watch him almost everyday but looking back, he’s grown so much! we definitely need more of this❤️❤️
As someone with ADD, without meds I am so unfocused and never finish tasks. It's not easy and I can't imagine going almost a year without them.
I loved the side by side of Flynn now and baby Flynn, and seeing him still making some of the same expressions and smiles! I love that kiddo, and so does my son! 🤗
Tortilla talk question: do you have any allergies? If so, what do you do to avoid the things you are allergic to? Are there any special own tips and tricks you have? /// Btw All of ur children are SO cute, seriously I’m getting baby fever from here. I love watching your videos thx for doing what you do 🤍
I love truck tunes my son loves it so much. He also loves blippi and the truck songs he has. If Flynn hasn't seen it you should show him blippi excavator songs. He also does a lot of learning videos. Being in the pandemic with a baby we stayed away from most people so we taught him to play with toys he picks what he likes but instead of being around other kids and seeing how they play blippi has taught him a lot about everything outside of our little family. Like aquariums and kids play places. He picks up on things so fast he knows most of his abcs can count to 10 and speaks in sentences. He will be 2 in February and im always amazed with watching him learn and grow. Watching your channel has helped me think of things to do with a little boy while being home so much, so thank you for that. And every time I watch your videos and he hears flynn he stops what he is doing to come running to " see the baby" lol. He thinks Flynn is the coolest ever lol.
Also the bulldozer dance by blippi is one of my sons favorites. It's not the bulldozer song it's the dance one where blippi shows him to dance like he is a bulldozer and when the music stops he freezes and then dances when it comes back on. It reminded me of that when Flynn told you to wait to dance lol
Also, have to say, one of the tell tell signs of AMAZING parents is the fact that Flynn has zero jealousy issues. Way to go guys.
Flynn is such an amazing little boy. He so sweet with his baby brother and sister. The fact that he likes watching vlogs of when he was a baby with you, melts my heart. ❤❤❤
tortilla talk question: do you think any of your kids have similar personalities to your parents or eric’s parents? or do they look like them? love u so much!
10:32 well if that’s not the sweetest kiss i’ve ever seen 🤧 my heart burst
my adhd neurodivergent self hears you, i legit can't function without my meds and when i go off of them all of a sudden i have a massive appetite, i forget everything, no thoughts come to completion, i'm ten times more impulsive but also my comedic abilities improve
Colleen, I've been following you for years, since I was really young. I've grown up seeing you be the best example of an amazing mom. When Flynn came I would watch all your baby updates and play with my dolls like you would parent Flynn. Now I'm a teenager and I'm watching you parent the twins and I'm thinking of how I will parent my kids in a couple years. I don't know if you know this or not but you are truly and amazing mom. You do whatever you can to be the best mom, and that makes you amazing. The love you give to your kids is never ending motherly love. Lots of love Colleen 😘❤❤
Whenever Colleen posts it literally makes my day a million times better!! Love you 💕
Flynn is the sweetest little guy, he loves Colleen so much. His reactions to baby Flynn were so cutw
For Erik: I really love a show called timeless and I haven’t watched it since I started following you guys and today I watched an episode with Erik in it!! I got so excited and my parents thought I was a weirdo! Just thought I should share!! Xx
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for talking about your ADHD medication!! There is so much stigma attached and as Mum to a little girl on medication, when people say it actually help, it helps normalise and take the stigma away. So thank you! Medication changed her life after we tried everything for years. She’s now thriving at school and one day she’ll change the world so thank you. I’ll show her your video later and she will feel like a super hero! 💕
I don’t think I would’ve gotten through 2021 without these vlogs 💛
That is the sweetest thing that he likes to watch those older videos with you! He loves those memories, you can see it all over his face! Watching him-watch those he looks almost nostalgic! He has little dreamy eyes and looks to you so endearingly. Your a great mother Colleen! Don’t you forget it! Same about Erik as a father! You all have brought up such a sweet boy!!
Tortilla talk question: have you thought about writing a song using things Flynn has said? I love “Happiness is very Happy” and “The Hug Song” so much and I think it would be awesome to have one written by Flynn.
Yess that's such a good idea!!!
Yes!!!!!
Your older son is soooo sweet I love his spirit he brings so much joy to your family.
Tortilla talk question: What is Miranda going to name the twins since she named Flynn Pinto bean?
oooh, i like that one!!
Lima and Kidney bean?
Miranda was never pregnant... she never played into that this time. I'm guessing she just won't even bring the twins up as Miranda.
@@AwesomeCat2012 It still would be fun to know the names tho
@@AwesomeCat2012 yes she was! check her channel ❤️ she did a twin gender reveal as miranda :)
Hey Colleen! I just wanted to say a huge thank you for sharing your life with us. I’ve just moved back to my apartment after being back home since the pandemic started and it has been a rough shift, It’s been hard missing my family and my dogs every single day but your vlogs are a big safe space for me and make me feel like home, so thank you very very much. Sending my love to you and your family always
Can we all agree that Colleen is amazing?

10:33 omg my heart melted, I love these two!!!
omg when she said "i'm out of breath and i have no idea why" i just got a flashback to when Colleen used to pregnant and she would say that so often ❤
i just went back to college after being home for winter break and was thinking about how i always love watching these blogs before bed. i think it’s nice to watch a family and colleen being a mom since i don’t get to spend as much time with mine
I love the fact that Flinn can just look back at your vlogs and see his own growth 🥺
Colleen you’re such an amazing mother. I’m so obsessed with your and Flynn’s relationship 🥺
Can we thank Colleen for vlogging her life everyday even though she’s so busy with Flynn and the twins 💕
ruclips.net/video/66v5NZzgquI/видео.html

@@krabby-patty She’s clearly able to do both. To Colleen, vlogging doesn’t seem all that different from picking up a phone and calling a friend or taking time to write in a journal. Mothers can do things they enjoy and still be good mothers to their children, and surely don’t need people on the internet judging them for it or telling them how to parent.
Well this is also how they make money. She makes an estimate of $6.9K - $110K monthly earnings on this channel alone.
I don’t know - can you?
@@krabby-patty 🙄
Even Flynn knows you can’t start dancing until the beat drops 😂❤️ also Colleen, you’re already raising one great little human being, and I’m so excited to watch the twins grow into the same amazing little people like their older brother. You’re doing so great mamas, I hope I can be at least a fraction of the kind of mother you are.
I look forward to these videos everyday!!!

Flynn melts my heart he’s the sweetest ever!
Hey early gang :))
Heyyy love your pfp
Heyyy
Hi!
Heyy
Hiiiiii
I'm a mom of 5 with another on the way! 100% never get any thing done when planned. I love watching these videos, you are such a great mama and so relatable. Thank you for making these!
Glad to hear your feeling like yourself again. I know there's a lot left in that brain of yours. Let me say this, Miranda is one of the most genius characters ever created. I think every once in a while, we all would like to lose our filter. Miranda gets to be that every day. Lucky girl. Peace and Love.
@10:34 I legit sobbed 🥺 Flynn is the sweetest boy!
I know this isn't a tortilla talk question but hear me out..
Colleen's journey from having her angels seperated from her in the nicu to where she is now really reminds mme of the song; I See The Light from Tangled. ( listen to all the lyrics carefully)
"And at last I see the light, and it's like the fog has lifted" - Those specific lyrics really stood out to me especially due to the fact when Colleen described her experience of being seperated from her babies as being "foggy" or "feeling lost in the fog"
Love you Colleen, give Wes and Maisy hugs from me!
flynn's relationship with both of you makes me cry, he's such a beautiful little boy.
I love you so queen. You are the sweetest kindest most caring amazing talented human ever. I could never thank you enough for all you have done for me in my life. You are the best mom ever to the sweetest cutest toddler ever with the biggest personality and to Wesley & Maisy. Erik is so loving supportive and encouraging. You are the most beautiful person inside and out. You have benefited my life in so many ways and have had such a positive impact on me. Thank you for making me smile daily and bring joy to my world. I truly don’t know the person I would be without you. I’m so proud of you and all you have accomplished in your life. There are no words to describe how much you mean to me and how amazing you are. Thank you for being the sunshine in mine and so many others life. Thank you for getting me through tough times and making me so happy. Love you to the moon 🌙 and back. 💜💕❤️💙🌻🍪💛🌵🐢🚗

JK. Love Miranda. I’m exsided for MIRANDA Monday!
We have the same name
Flynn is the literal cutest!!! I'm 26 weeks pregnant sitting here crying watching you and Flynn watch baby Flynn videos😭😭
What a gift to Colleen and Eriks children! Watching themselves grow up! Every major highlight is there.
Flynn pronouncing water. Or taking his first steps. Or watching his parents fall in love! How damn special.
The twins , just how much they are loved! All the future milestones they will accomplish.
Its a record of their lives. Couldnt be more priceless.
I love how toddlers always like to repeat stuff. Just Flynn living LIFE watching Gus inhaling that snack over and over again, adorable.
I’ve been going through some depression and your videos have helped me a ton. My fiancé has even mentioned that he hasn’t heard he laugh like I do when I watch your Miranda videos. Haters Back Off! So excited for you to be back! ❤️
Flynn watches himself as a baby, the way we all watch him as a baby and now...with a big grin!
I so love watching how you parent and those adorable chilren but it feels to be so invested in your family
Tortilla talk question: I love your pearl necklace and the idea that it is for Maisy when she gets older, so precious! But you mentioned that you have a similar idea for Wesley and Eric But it was a Christmas present, so you didn’t want to ruin the surprise, so now that its after Christmas, would you mind telling us what it is? 👀 Thank you ☺❤
it was rly nice to hear you talk about medication even briefly! i too am on medication and it don’t know any of my friends who are (taking medication) and they often put down medication which i try not to take personally. so it’s nice to hear someone like you talk abt it!!
Your such a great mom, you are a rockstar!

Such precious moments of you and Flynn watching his baby videos. You are an amazing mother! I love watching your videos!
Love you Colleen ans your family!!🥺💕😂
Watching Flynn watch him self before bed was adorable it truly makes me think of the future when he is older looking back on the amazing captures of his life will all your content ❤️ love this so much
Tortilla talk question: I have bin on the exact same ADHD meds almost my whole life but, a bit ago I noticed it has not seemed to be working that well even after doubling my dose. I was wondering if that has ever happened to you and if it did what you did what did you do about it. I was also wondering if you have also had weird side effects from you medication
Thank you for making my Saturday night. Seriously you guys bring me so much joy. Everyone remember this Monday on Tia's Instagram live. For childhood cancer the same charity Colleen donates to every year for her birthday.
I was rearranging my furniture when she said "shaggin wagon" and I literally peed myself lol 😆
It's the most dad thing ever but still hilarious😅
