I took care of my daughter almost exclusively with second-hand items and clothing. Money goes a lot further, and she still had quality name brand things.
Hey Peter, my aunt used to foster and one of the key tips that she used to live by was purchasing a crib that can convert into day beds and full-size beds to accommodate any age child so you’re not constantly buying cribs and beds over and over. She just stored the different size mattresses and whenever she got a child of a certain age she would just change the bed to suit that age!!
I am so glad their are safe and loving Foster Homes like your,s.There are so much Abusive Foster Parents that God Forbid are allowed to foster or even adopt kids that upsets me.But God Bless you for being a good foster parent!
Kids are a main cause of impulse spending 😂 and it’s the only kind of impulse spending that’s ok 😂 you did a great job shopping !!! That “lil” coffee will soon turn into “a pot” of coffee now that you have a lil one … congratulations and may yours n all the childrens live you impact be full of blessings and love 💕
So nice to see Anthony helping out alot more! Shows how much he has matured over the last year. And Peter taking Anthony’s Crocs lol living the Real Dad Life! 😂✌🏽
A suggestion Peter. Give each kid a suitcase if you can. That way if they have to move on to a different home & or onto reunification, they have a nice storage solution that is theirs for where to pack their things when they leave from your house
I love how Peter turns all things into a joyous experience for these kids. With the gender reveal it was something that they possibly miss out in their own families seeing their own mom get pregnant. Peter makes them look forward to everything in their life and feel like a true family. Peter is such a wonderful man. I can imagine his videos alone have encouraged hopefully thousands to want to foster. We have our first home study this week and alot of it has been encouraged by seeing Peter's videos!!! God bless you Peter and keep being a tool for God!!! Much love from South Carolina!!!❤️
You are so amazing. To get a call for a child and you run out and get most of the things she needs. I wish there were more people like you. May God bless you.
Peter, you are awesome. Your heart touches me deeply. I was abandoned at birth by my birth mom, placed in foster care, and thankfully adopted as a newborn. How many times have a filled out paperwork for foster care but for some reason never follow through. I have a special place in my heart for children who have been displaced from their bio parents. Thanks so much for all that you do.
What a remarkable foster dad you are, Peter. The new little girl will be loved and well taken care of in your spacious home, where there is never a dull moment! God bless you all.
That is a massive car seat! It looks like it could hold a gorilla! My son was born in 1969. You would be shocked by the flimsy little contraption he was in. I'm shocked right now just thinking about it.😳 How fun to have two girls in the house, and I'll bet you've got eager little helpers, there.🙋♀💞🤵♂
Your videos warm my heart. To see the joy in your eyes while shopping for your new little arrival. The love you have for all the children that come into your life is wonderful to see. You are a true hero to so many. I always pray for you and your family and love seeing you all.
Haha...look at Anthony giving Peter grief over not reading the instructions with the playpen and then again when he's installing car seats. Definitely a typical teenager 🤣
This was very real and very fun. You had better listen to Anthony. "Shouldn't you look at the instructions? Maybe you should have taken a photo before you took it apart?" Smart young man.
It's also very nice to give the child the things u bought them cuz as a foster child it's so important for them to feel lk something belongs to them it means so much. Believe me that's so nice of u
Make life easy! Bring the car seat to the fire and/or police department. They will install it for you the right way. Even if you already installed it bring it by and let them inspect it to make sure it’s in correctly. You’d be surprised at what you might learn 😄. Also, shop at Walmart for baby stuff. It’s so much more affordable. Good luck! You’ll do fine. 🍼👨🏽🍼👼🅱️🎊🎁🥳
I love that you try to keep the kids together! I also love that you give the kids that you have, the stuff that you bought for them when they leave you! Love that you are getting another girl! Love that you took Anthony's crocs! Love that Anthony was not helping-at least he was filming for you-I wonder if he will change diapers :) I love that you included the little guy in the balloon reveal! You will do great with the baby!
I was just thinking I have so many questions about your story. Then, I realized you wrote a book and I have audible credits!! Can not wait to start listening. Peter you are wonderful. Thank you for inspiring me to be more involved in my community. Good luck with all the kiddos!!
Sorry but I think babies need a woman who makes a mother roll specially at that age. I can’t imagine there is not any other foster home fits better for this baby.
@globetrotter6127 it's a sibling of one of his other children!! He states they keep them together wherever possible. Also it's not the sex of the parent, it's the love, respect and ability. Peter has all that and more.
First time watcher here. I’m so smittened with this amazing father and his adorable family. God Bless and always watch over this man and his this family.
I just got suggested your video and now subscribed!! You seem like a amazing man opening your heart and house to children!! Mad respect sir!!! Much love from Texas!!!
You are a better person than I am. The hardest part that would bring me trauma is that of being separated from time to time with the kids and families that I have made relationships with in the journey. May God bless your life and those who have the privilege to meet with you or those who are gonna meet with you. Not forget everyone around you in this journey including all the kids too. 🙏
At first I read the title and interpretted it as the placement being 15 months long. Then I realized the child is 15 months old. I was all set to provide respite weekend care for sisters 3 and 4 years old. I had a room set up with 2 large cribs, had bought some cute clothes and shoes. Then I was diagnosed with chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia. The specialist told me I should definitely not go ahead. I was very disappointed and never was well-enough to try again.
You got the easiest car seat to install. Now just make sure that the harness straps come out from a little lower than her shoulders. Just a tip for this particular car seat, if you need to uninstall, unbuckle the seat belt first and then open the clicktight door, if you do it the other way around, you risk breaking the clicktight mechanism.
I wish you lived closer because I have like new baby items to donate. Did you say she’s a sibling if the kids you already have? You’re a great father and role model for your kids.
I am excited for you and the kids Peter!! I don't know how to say this but I truly believe that you PETER are exactly what God wants from each and every one of us. I admire you especially knowing that you are freely and lovingly giving something of yourself that you longed for and never had. Bravo sweet man. Now where's the baby????? I love babies!!!! 💜
You are AMAZING BIG HEARTED DADDY that These children love you. Your so gifted you truly are. I love the fact your a foster papa and we are grateful to have ppl in this world like you , 😊
Hi Peter and Anthony; Enjoying the wonderful conversation between the two of you, just awesome!. God bless you and your family as you prepare for your new baby addition.
Peter you are just simply put, amazing! This little girl is so lucky to be in your home! I myself have missed some videos because I am preparing my home to most likely take my 3 year old Granddaughter for a little while. My son and his wife need time to straighten their lives out. I was wondering he is Zay doing? Good I hope and pray ☺️❤️
We have a new store in our area that has slightly used items. It is called Hammy Downs in Grover NC. It might be handy for you to get familiar with them. They have all the things like you just bought.
Peter, thank you for all the amazing work you do. Just a tip, if you have an IKEA nearby, they sell some good basics for kids. For example, they have an inexpensive high chair that my kid loved. If you have to buy everything every time, this might be a good resource for good quality inexpensive basics. Target is amazing for the rest :).
U are such a great foster parent im so happy there are great foster parents out lk u cuz not every child is blessed with that and ik as a former foster child it's so important to feel safe and loved cuz they are very scared. God bless u and ur growing family
I just found you today and instantly subbed! I’m a Guardian ad Litem next door in Union County, and you are an amazing foster parent. Much 💜 to you and your family.
Good morning Peter, happy and healthy 2023 for you AND family. May God bless you and your decisions to love the children. If I were younger, Ivwould follow your footsteps and share my space and love with foster children. Your example ROCKS!!!!!! I will be following your advancements. Cant wait to meet the new member.

we do this also!
He clearly said that he gives the family the things he buys for the children when/if they move on.
He said most things, not beds.
@@lizf1353 I was thinking the same thing but a convertible bed would be something good to send home with the child if it's needed.
One thing for sure, this baby will find lots of love in your home!
Peter, you are the most amazing man I have ever seen, everybody loves you, wish more people were like you!
Thank you 🙏
💯 the world would be greater for it !!! ❤
He’s setting the example for others to follow. That’s the best type of parenting.
Be the change you wish to see in the world
I agree . Peters a gift from God and these kids are so blessed to be placed in his loving home.
I am so glad their are safe and loving Foster Homes like your,s.There are so much Abusive Foster Parents that God Forbid are allowed to foster or even adopt kids that upsets me.But God Bless you for being a good foster parent!
Anthony is an outstanding young man, and an awesome big brother.
I agree with everything you said, with a cherry on top. I love how Anthony has matured, he’s great🌈
Yes Anthony is The BEST Big brother 💞💞💞
Kids are a main cause of impulse spending 😂 and it’s the only kind of impulse spending that’s ok 😂 you did a great job shopping !!! That “lil” coffee will soon turn into “a pot” of coffee now that you have a lil one … congratulations and may yours n all the childrens live you impact be full of blessings and love 💕
And my son's dad hasn't contacted him in over 2 years. This is a wonderful man
I love that you gift the child all the stuff bought for them when they go home. That is so wonderful. These kids have so little to call their own.
We adopted all six of our children 5 of them through foster care. It was a very interesting ride. I was adopted as well. You are such a blessing
Anthony!! He will be a great dad in 12-15 years!
So nice to see Anthony helping out alot more! Shows how much he has matured over the last year. And Peter taking Anthony’s Crocs lol living the Real Dad Life! 😂✌🏽
I take my sons addidas slides
He's such a great kid with such a great attitude.
I love your shirt " families don't need to match"

That’s the fun part ! Shopping for your kiddos.
Because you can be trusted and this is your God given calling . Continue the good work.
This child is blessed to be under your rooftop
Anthony😂a mattress in a box on legs! You two were meant for eachother🥰
Peter, you are awesome. Your heart touches me deeply. I was abandoned at birth by my birth mom, placed in foster care, and thankfully adopted as a newborn. How many times have a filled out paperwork for foster care but for some reason never follow through. I have a special place in my heart for children who have been displaced from their bio parents. Thanks so much for all that you do.
May the Lord bless you for all that you do for the foster kids
The world needs more people like you ❤️
I don't know how you do this but you are an amazing dad.
Your house is amazing, the furniture, the beds, the blankets, everything is so beautiful, lucky kids, hope they can stay permanently with you
Peter...you are an inspiration! Those kids hit the jackpot.
A Beautiful Human Being! May God Bless You!
What a big beautiful home ! Kids are blessed ! And what a great father ! I wish I would have had you when I was in Foster care
Hurrah 🎉❤ Peter, we need more people like you.
I think it's wonderful how you make sure to make each child has the best experience possible with you
What a remarkable foster dad you are, Peter. The new little girl will be loved and well taken care of in your spacious home, where there is never a dull moment! God bless you all.
You can go by the fire department and they help to install car seats and make sure they are installed correctly.
That is a massive car seat! It looks like it could hold a gorilla! My son was born in 1969. You would be shocked by the flimsy little contraption he was in.

Some tips for you: waterproof bed pads, sippy cups, finger foods, overnight diapers. Can't wait to see your new addition!
Your videos warm my heart. To see the joy in your eyes while shopping for your new little arrival. The love you have for all the children that come into your life is wonderful to see. You are a true hero to so many. I always pray for you and your family and love seeing you all.

Love the new opening / intro of your vlog :)
I was just thinking I have so many questions about your story. Then, I realized you wrote a book and I have audible credits!! Can not wait to start listening. Peter you are wonderful. Thank you for inspiring me to be more involved in my community. Good luck with all the kiddos!!
The work that you are doing is amazing, and a shout out to all the people who are Foster workers or care workers. Lots of LOVE
That is so kind of you to recognise us with a shout out. I wish you all the best. Xx
Your a pretty amazing and one of a kind man!
the best thing i love about Anthony is he embrassed the life his dad has...his support to what his dad doing is outstanding...❤❤❤❤
So glad this baby girl is going to be in your loving home! I can't wait to see her... and watch your other children interact with her.
Best wishes!
❤
Sorry but I think babies need a woman who makes a mother roll specially at that age. I can’t imagine there is not any other foster home fits better for this baby.

@@sheilamorrell6329 Yes, I heard that and then forgot about it. Thanks for reminding me. It' will be challenging, and so exciting, too!
@@globetrotter6127 I would choose Peter over my mother if given the chance to go back and do my childhood over.
First time watcher here. I’m so smittened with this amazing father and his adorable family. God Bless and always watch over this man and his this family.
This video (and more importantly *family*) is so full of joy and love! Thank you for all you’re doing for these kids!!! ❤❤❤
