It's truly never too late to establish a healthy relationship with family if all parties are willing and able. Also watching Nick with Honor is so beautiful.
It's the best 🥹 He is def the "fun Dad." Thank you. ❤
Colon cancer is on the rise in young people. It’s awesome your doctor is being cautious and taking your health concerns serious.
My friend found out she had it the day she gave birth 😢
Watching Nick and Honor together was just an absolutely gorgeous look into your family life. Your family’s happiness is just so lovely and well-deserved!
Julia has the best personality. Your sense of humor is on point... I loled several times throughout this video
Me too! The 45,000 holes too many 😂😂😂
Entirely too many buttholes to see in one lifetime hahahaha
My brother and I for years had a strained relationship after some stuff went down and for awhile we were not even speaking. Recently, he started going to church again and his life turned around and our relationship now is better than ever! We made amends for the past hurts and I am so thankful! Praise God 🙏
It is so lovely seeing the pure joy you and Nick have with Honor. Thank you for letting us see this.
Such a joy to see your family thriving! Honor's perfect round head and chubby cheeks are melting my wanna-be-grandma heart. Blessings, Julia.
The baby has already grown so much! Great family vibes, you all look awesome!
I'm so glad Honor has brought your sister and you closer ...I know what closeness with a sibling feels like, especially After a difficult time.
Congratulations on your relationship with your sister! Such great news!!
Sending thoughts and prayers for a peaceful and swift recovery from your procedure!!!
What a blessing about your sister! Amen!! Love the message.
Heyy Julia 😘
You're amazing as a mom, as a daughter, sister and girlfriend.
Thank you for sharing with us your sister relationship, family ties are important whether we like it or not sometimes. It took Honor for the family to Honor those ties, she's a gift to your families. She'll be thankful for all of you to have done this.
I hope you have a blessed day with your loved ones 🤍
Your family is absolutely precious! Baby is gorgeous!! Bless her!
I loved that you shared your colonoscopy story! The first time I heard awareness about colon cancer was in the Two Hot Takes podcast and it made me think a lot about my parents and how them and many people should be normalizing getting one and doing it. I also have a friend who's mom is struggling with colon cancer and it's sad and difficult. At the end of the day, it's healthy getting screened!
You're glowing, Julia! Motherhood looks so good on you!!
You look so beautiful! I’m so happy to hear about you and your sister ☺️ such great news
It is so nice that Honor brought you and your sister back. Babies have a power they will never understand my nephew creates that joy and good energy for us 😊
I'm so glad you've been able to reconnect with your sister! My sister is my best friend in the world and I can't imagine life without her! We are both currently pregnant with our first babies at the same time, which has been very exciting! I am 33 weeks and she is 17 weeks, so it's been so wonderful to have this additional bonding experience.
I'm so glad that Honor has not only given you the opportunity to be a wonderful mom but also to be close with your sister! How truly lovely.
EDIT: Also, I DIED listening to you talk about the colonoscopy and your doctor seeing way too many. You are so funny!
Never too late to cherish something as special as sisterhood. ❤️
You are so wise and so peaceful. I love every video you post! 💓 Keep being you 💕 Good luck with your procedure.
Julia, I was having a super stressful day and your video feels so warm and cozy, thanks always for sharing; the bond you have with Nick and Honor is something I aspire to have someday, sending tons of love!
The way Honor turned when you called her name😍
My little helper ☺
@@itsblitzzz she's very sweet and we are really lucky to get to see you all interact as the beautiful family that you are♥️
I've had a colonoscopy before. Sorry yours was painful! Mine was all good. My results were good as well. The doctor saw nothing alarming, but because of my age (I was 43 at the time) and family history, my PCP suggested I get one, so I did and was glad I did! Glad that you and your sister have rekindled your relationship! Sounds like she is thrilled that she's now an aunt! I can't wait for the visit! Honor is sooooo cute and squishy like all babies should be! I can tell Nick loves being a dad! You are an awesome mom! Thanks for the vids! Hope to see another one soon!
My mom has woken up during the procedure before, it was horrible! She hates getting them done. Also, thank you for sharing your experience with your sibling. I'm an only child but I'm sure so many can relate. 🧡
I LOVE Honor, she’s so cute ♥️ thanks for sharing your stories with us, it’s always nice to hear from you. Te mando un gran abrazo! 😊
I have been watching you for a long time, I think you are a beautiful person I love that you are open and honest about real life. It is very refreshing thank you ❤💫
Just to let you know really quick, as a nurse and a patient, I've woken up during actual surgery on my ankle... That's part of the reason that the anesthesiologist is right there. They will monitor you health-wise along with the doctor but they're also there in case you wake up. They were already prepping the medication to give you as soon as they notice that you are awake. Also I recommend in the future that you let them know that you are nauseous after anesthesia it's a very very common side effect of anesthesia and what they will do is give you anti-nausea medication prior to giving you the anesthesia and when you wake up you won't have that post-surgical nausea. And lastly I just wanted to say thank you for getting a colonoscopy even though you are uncomfortable. It really is worth it going through it instead of having to deal with colon cancer. You're such a positive example. Thank you for everything that you do for all of us!
I started tearing up when I heard you've reconnected with your sister through Honor. That's truly wonderful and I hope the health, healing, happiness, and love continues !! (btw you looked gorgeous in this video and Nick's dad moment at the beginning was adorable !)
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations on reconnecting with your sister- that's beautiful! A friend of mine had something similar happen- she & her sister never had much in common & sort of lost touch with each other throughout their teenage years. Her sister married young & had children in her early 20s, whereas my friend became an engineer, focused primarily on her career & waited until she was almost 40 to have her 1st child... but once that happened, she & her sister suddenly had a lot more common ground & are close to this day (my friend's sons are now 13 & 11yo). You're right- it's never too late! I'm sure it's bringing your mom a lot of peace to know that her daughters are finding common ground & can be there for one another, as adults.
Love the ending of this video! It is amazing to be apart of your life journey in some way. As a subscriber for a little while, it is inspiring to see how you open up to us about the beautiful things and the messy things in life 😄.
Aww I’m so glad you reconnected with ur sister. That’s beautiful 🥹
and Ik ur moms heart is so happy!
Me and my sister used to fight all the time as kids, it def bothered my mom. She always used to get on us and tell us we’re going to need each other when we grow up etc lol. We get along now but it definitely didn’t happen right away
So awesome for you to share your positive story about you and your sister. Im so truly happy for you:). I have 4 siblings and we are very close. My 2 younger sisters and I are the best of friends. My 2 kids (already young adults) do love each other but they don't talk much because they have completely different personalities & find each other annoying. So i, too, know that pain of watching my kids not really get along. I hope and pray they can someday be close and spend time together. I always tell them that in this world there are few ppl you can trust and rely on and a sibling should always be one of those ppl.
Awww! Look at her laughing with her Daddy! 😫❤️
Love how loving and easy Nick entertains Honor and your explanation about your colonoscopy was a hoot 😂 you guys rock 😊 count your blessings Honor 😊
You’re the best OG at this style of vlogging! So inspired and happy for your journey
Thank you so much!!
Julia…I have been watching you forever…Love your content…Thank you sooo much for sharing that you and your sister are talking again…My My oldest daughter and middle daughter haven’t spoken in about 6 years…And it breaks my heart..But I believe in the power of prayer and that healing will eventually will come…Soo glad your are…Honor is precious…And seem like an amazing momma…
Your baby is just so adorable, she looks so much like you Julia!
Honor with the kitty was so sweet!!
I am always just so drawn to your facial bone structure, it is so beautiful and unique! Your skin looks so soft and glowing too. You look beautiful!! Love your content, thank you for all that you share us ❤ Happy Sunday darling 😊
Something about this video has made it my new favorite. You are hilarious Julia.
I don’t like forcing relationships. My sister was never a good older sister to me. 10 years difference. It’s my choice that we don’t have a relationship and it always bothered my parents. It’s unfortunate. I really envy you and happy for you, sincerely. I’m glad your colon is excellent!
Totally! It’s always a personal choice!
Same experience here. My brother is 9 years older and always a jerk. When I was 21 I realized “I’m a fucking adult, I decide who I have a relationship with”. No confrontation - i literally ghosted him. It’s been over 20 years and, tellingly, he’s never once reached out to me.
My mum would always say “it’s just the age difference”. But my sister is 8 years younger than me and while we didn’t connect as kids, we’re very close now.
That’s how I feel too, family doesn’t mean we need to suffer from the relationship, I feel. Our whole family has weird vibe all together, but me and my sister especially, because although our relationship was sometimes good, mostly bad or non existent. She’s 5 years older than me. We don’t talk most of our lives, because we start fighting very fast and it ends in traumas. We just live our separate lives and neither seem to mind that we don’t aren’t in each other’s lives that much.
The only hard part is hard for me- is that our mom tries to guilt trip me into doing something for my sister when she asks her to help, same with her. “Family always helps each other unconditionally”, like making me feel I need to participate in her life, do stuff for her and i always feel bad to say no, so I usually can’t. If I can’t find an excuse, I feel like have to do it. Ofc I’m always there for my sister or anyone in genuinely hard times with no one asking me to, but I always wonder if I’m being narcissistic that I try to wiggle myself out when it feels inconvenient for me.
@@JH-bx8lb Yeah after siblings get in their 20s or older I don't feel like the "age excuse" is valid anymore. Everyone is an adult and there's plenty of ways to connect if both parties are willing.
Watching Nick and Honor has my ovaries feeling things they shouldn’t be 😭
Me and my sister are pretty much best friends even thought we do argue sometimes. Our friends have all changed,and it in turn made us closer. So we pretty much do a lot of things together. She is 3yrs younger than me and has 3 kids, and I just had my 1st. Definitely great that you reconnected with your sister 😊 and your little girl is adorable ☺️
Honor's pants are so cute. Also I haven't eaten today and all of the food looks good.
Edit: The way you casually told us about your doctor and how he's seen too many buttholes...I can't stop laughing 🤣🤣🤣
This happened with my best friend!!!! Her sister and her had the WORST relationship but after she had a baby, her sister is now her best friend!! 😂 it's the best to watch. They talk about it all the time. Their "rediscovering" journey is so sweet ♥️ happy for ya
Your baby is just sooo beautiful ! Many blessings
I’ve lost count of the number of colonoscopies and gastroscopies (camera down throat) I’ve had. I’ve had stomach cancer twice as well as other illnesses caused by cirrhosis (due to a gene fault). I’m 35 and thankfully have never woken up during a procedure or surgery. Hearing stories where people do scares the death out of me! Happy yours went well eventually and nothing was amiss though. 😊
Love these so much! Great job new happy healthy parents!!!
I could relate to the sister situation, but with my brother, it definitely hurt my mom growing up seeing us banter, but once he moved out we surprisingly got closer! i noticed effort was being put in, but you definitely live and your learn, so happy your close with your sister again! xx life is very short to regret things.
Do you mean bicker? Banter is joking around.
What does "I noticed effort was being put in" mean? I don't understand things that are written in the passive voice.
I’ve been making smoothies too daily lol. Those blenders make it soooo easy. You also look so pretty ❤
I agree about the blender, one of our best kitchen purchases...I wish I bought one sooner! Nick uses it every day too. Thank you 🙂❤️
most siblings go through phases like yours. I always love my family too but it's important to establish boundaries when needed. I've had two colonoscopy already. they are a piece of cake.
I’m so glad that you and your sister are doing well! I have the same situation, and I’m the younger sister, I have three kids but my sister isn’t helpful nor supportive and she caused a lot of stress in my life, so I don’t think I’ll ever make the effort with her, but I understand feeling jealous of other people who have close friendships with their siblings.
Same here. She caused a lot of problems. I was part of a toxic family and our relationship ended because she blocked me just because now I’m telling the truth about her. She is not mentally well in my opinion. In my case I’m glad she is not in my life anymore. It a chapter that has ended
I love your cooking and meal prep posts!
I missed your videos!! Love the vlogs :)
Family is so important. I know some can be toxic. Forgiveness is always possible. Happy for you and your family! ❤
Honour is such a sweetie omg 🥺🥺 the dinner with friends is a goal of mine recently! I really want my flat to be the comfort place for all my friends, where they can just come over and vibe ✨💕
You have mentioned the tumultuous sister relationship some years ago and her making nasty comments on your videos. I have been very curious seeing you say she sent you things for Honor. So happy the relationship is starting to improve. And so glad your colonoscopy went well. In 2020 my husband was diagnosed with stage 3 rectal cancer after a colonoscopy and what a crap (pun intended) few years that was. And while he’s much healthier now, he is permanently changed by it physically and mentally. I hope they keep lowering the age insurance covers one because so many people could catch a serious issue sooner. ❤
Same happened with me and sister.. we are 2 years apart and we always used to fight and be very competitive towards eachother, but she got a baby and everything just changed overnight and now for years we are so supportive of eachother and I am so happy that you have the similar situation because it feels amazing!
Julia,,the baby is very alert when you called her,,, she's beautiful,, good luck y'all
I had a colonoscopy with no sedatives, it's just tolerable. I love that you're not cussing around the baby, sweetest thing. ♡♡
Shout out to Nick for doing such a great job with the baby!
I had a colonoscopy and honestly the prep was the worst part. At the hospital here they won't let you leave until you pass gas.
So adorable ❤️ daddy with his baby girl!!
I just had a colonoscopy and I’m so glad I did. They found one tiny polyp, and they are non-cancerous. Or mine was anyway! Good luck to you and good job. It is so good to get those done. I didn’t feel a thing. Woke up it felt like five minutes later. My sister said it was an hour later. Drinking the mix the night and day before is not too bad either. Good luck! By the time you got this, you probably already had that.
I also have found Solid starts to be the best go to guide for baby food prep!
Honestly your colonoscopy story was so real it made me laugh - and I appreciate how you didn’t dramatise it, just told us how it went. Hope you don’t need another one anytime soon, as is your wish 😂
I had a similar colonoscopy experience when I was 19 :( Even 15 years later I have vivid memories of waking up due to the pain and begging for it to stop, hearing a nurse say "shit, she's awake!" and then conking out again.
Absolutely. If family or friends relationships are possible, take the step. I am 52, my sister was 15 yrs older. Never connected on a sisterly level until after our mothers death. We decided to leave opinions and frustrations at the door and be friends. 4 years in she developed metastatic breast cancer and ultimately died of Sepsis, 2 years ago. So we had a total of 6 years of friendship. I am so grateful to have had the fond memories, talks and laughs. I miss her everyday!!! Good luck to you and Sister. It’s just special bc u even have each other, but don’t fret sometimes same DNA or not ppl just don’t click. ❣️❣️❣️
P.S. a barium enema is way worse. Uuuuggghhhh. Glad your ok.
Long time fan. Love this peek! Love the name honor. I love her little baby mullet. She's adorable!
The ending of this video was the ending of a video I didn't know I needed 😂
"and this was the validation that I did not know I needed" 😂
Yes!!! Have had the same experience with my sister and we’re very close now ❤
LMAO at the end "And this was the validation I did not know I needed" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The same thing happened to me during my colonoscopy several years ago. I’m sorry you had to go through that, but I feel strangely comforted to know this happened to someone else too!! I’ve decided I won’t be having anymore colonoscopies after my experience. I recently did the ColoGuard test which is good for 3 years. So glad you’ve been sharing and bonding with your sister. Love conquers all.
I just love how he would liked to have a son but he is now se perfect dad for his princess!
We had our first baby in May of last year. My husband and FIL had a strained relationship pretty much the entire time I’ve known them. Once the baby came things just somehow got easier. I am so happy they had this positive change as my FIL passed in January from cancer.
Babies really have a special power to bring people together. ❤
I truly laughed out loud when you said 45000 buttholes is too many for anyone in one lifetime. 😂😂 Honor is so precious and seeing how you and Nick are with her is just so heartwarming.
So lovely to hear you and your sister are moving in a positive way with your rekindled relationship. I think if both parties are willing, it’s never too late ❤
I also had one super young at 29. It was not that bad. Glad everything went smooth! I was just super bloated for days which sucked but besides that didn’t have any major issues & was told some good news.
My sister and I were horrible to each other until I moved away. Now we’re best friends. I wish we lived closer. ❤
I’m 29 now and to this day when I eat chicken and rice with carrots through it just like yours brings back childhood nostalgia x100
That chicken and rice 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻 I have been eating it several times a week since you posted it on ig. I am OBSESSED
I am so glad you have reconnected with your sister. I wish me and my brother could reconnect in that way. Maybe one day.
It's SO good right?! I'm going to try some more of her recipes soon (Iowa Girl Eats). Thank you, maybe you can. ❤
My sister and I always had a complicated relationship too. She was always sick when were growing up and it putting a lot of strain on my family and getting my own emotional needs met as a child/adolescent. When she became a mother, we became so much closer. She died from brain cancer 4 years ago. There’s so much I wish I could change still.
Hello! Sorry if this comes off as rude but Im sure your sister was very very happy you guys got to spend some time together and really meet each other, properly! Late is better than never and Im sure you guys shared a lifetime worth of love in that period. Sending you lots and lots of kisses and hugs!
@@soar3135 thank you for saying this. ❤️
Also Julia I looove your glasses! So cute
Thank you! ☺💗
Lots of blitzzz lore recently
Julia, I am from Russia, my English is not very good and I don’t understand you like for 100%, but I glad to hear that you reconnected with your sister. I understand, how this important to you, because I also reconnected with my sister after 8 years of silence and pain without her. My sister’s name is Julia by the way 💞
You look radiant!
How cute is Nick with the baby ❤
rawrrr periodt queen slayyyyy girlboss
Weird timing, my dad is getting his first colonoscopy this week! He’s in his 60s so it is HIGHLY overdue. My sister, my mom and I have been after him for years to get one! He is grumbling about the prep work which seems different from the one you had to do. My mom’s had a few done and her prep was similar to yours. My sister (around your age and mine, early 30s) had her first last year due to gastro issues and since they found polyps, she’s due to get one every 5 years now. (My mom and uncle also had them too, apparently super common). Sorry your experience was not great, waking up in the middle of the procedure sounds terrifying.
And glad to hear Honor has brought you and your sister closer! Is she a parent too? I was wondering if that was maybe part of the reason you’ve been able to reconnect. I remember you mentioning in a video once you had a difficult relationship with her so you have discussed it briefly in passing.
Happy for you and your healthy colon 💖
I love seeing Nick in dad action!!
Children also is perfect peacekeepers in a sense, your sister did not want to missout on being a aunt and for that reason may have mellowed and you too.
Your fridge has put me to shame. I am going to clean out my fridge now 😂😂😂
That is one cute child!
That was one hell of a rollercoaster 😂😂😂😂
I lost one of my sister's almost 2 years ago she died alone and we hadn't spoke in a year before she passed away and my other big sister is coming around slowly so im grateful for that make it right no matter what 😢
I have had one colonoscopy and for me the prep was horrendous. I have to get another one in five years and I am dreading it. I think they are extremely important but they are awful to go through. Glad all is well and you got through it.
As an ulcerative colitis queen, I've had four colonoscopies in the past 7 years. Hopefully you were able to do the Miralax and Gatorade prep rather than the magnesium citrate...makes a world of difference to how you feel before and after. My doctor uses very light anesthesia and likes to point out things to me on the video monitor during the procedure! 😬
I had my first Colonoscopy last year and the prep was the challenging part but the actual procedure was fine. They knocked me out with propafol (I think I butchered that spelling lol) and they also did the procedure where they didn't have to put air up there so I didn't have gas afterwards. All I remember is the anesthesia starting to go in then fade to black then I was waking up in recovery. I had never been put under before so I was really nervous about that but everything went fine. They did fine one polup near my colon and removed it sooo now I have to go back in five years for another one. For me it was the opposite...childbirth was WAYYYYY worse than the Colonoscopy haha. But, it's one of those things that's super important to have done. Glad everything was good and healthy for you😊❤️
Dude, I want one! I mean, well, it's an ambition of mine to father children (but Nick makes it look awesome and I'm missing out).
The last few seconds of this video 😅🤣 Love you.
