Awww…reminds me when my little girl was that little and I could still carry her to bed ❤️. The teen years snuck up on me. Still can’t wait for the cruise videos though!
Never underestimate how much you touch and inspire others just by being .. and sharing how beautiful love, mariage, parenting..a family .life... can be.... Love you (I love how Austin always says Love You) Austin is a great man, Jess is my virtual best friend.... keep up the amazing Being YOU
Yay! Lucas has joined the right of passage of every Spomer kiddo - to crawl through the end table 👏🏼🥰❤️. Great job momma! You’re already packed for the trip! That’s huge! Clothes packing tip to keep things smelling fresh - pop in an unused dryer sheet (if you use them) along with the clothes you pack, it’ll make them smell fresh and clean. And will also come in handy when packing the dirty clothes to bring home 😉 if no dryer sheets then you can use a sock to place some of the fragrant air freshener beads into it and pack that with your clothes.
Wow, you got a lot done for your trip. It is understandable because you have three kids as well as yourself to get ready. Let alone still your house and doctor visit. The video was just awesome. Lucas is doing so great with developing. Just precious. The girls are so adorable. Page going to sleep in her fort was just precious as can be. Sending love to y'all from Texas. ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi, Spomers... Awww, Paige is so cute asleep in Austin's arms. ❤️Lucas is really growing up so quickly and Micah is so grown up now... what a beautiful family you are and I always say God bless you all!!!! The gym down in the basement is so nice and you did an awesome job!!!! Thank you for posting this vlog... it makes me so happy being a part of your family!!!! 💙❤️❤️❤️💙😘😘😘😘😘🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
We used to go to the beach for two weeks. My mom would pack each kid’s (that’s 7 of us!) in a plastic hamper. They would load up the station wagon and when we arrived, we all stood in line to get our “hamper” to bring in the vacation house. The night before leaving, she would go to a laundromat (with a few of us to help) use about 9 washers, clean all the clothes and re-pack our hampers. Then when we got home, we had to put our clean clothes from our hampers back in our drawers. The older kids helped the younger ones. It was like running an army!!
Brooklyn Bedding is Helix's sister company. I am a plus size person and Helix customer care told me about Brooklyn Bedding and so I talked to their customer care and they're amazing. So Brooklyn betting is their sister company, both are awesome companies both have great customer service.
I'm 56 and one of my favorite memories of my dad was when I about Paige's age and was being baby sat by a friend of the family. I had fallen asleep on her sofa and dad showed up to pick me up. I was in and out of sleep (a really deep nap) and here and there I remember him carrying me to the car and home then placing me on my bed. I will forever remember the love my dad had for me, how gentle he was and that safe and loved feeling I had in his care. He passed away when I was 19 and I miss him dearly. Thank you for sharing with us such a tender loving moment with your sweet babies. ❤
I loved that game when I was little, I use to play don't break the ice all the time when I was between 8 and 12 years old. I still remember it today at 62 years old.
Lucas face is looking so mature lately, probably the haircut. Paige “I’ll do your work for you” was so genuine and heartfelt ❤️ Jess it’s not to early to pack. Your clothes will not smell, Utah is not humid enough to trap moisture. ❤
When my kids were younger, i would start packing at least a month before we left. It helped me make sure I had everything we needed and time to purchase the items we still needed.
I love your videos, your kids are cute and your videos bring joy, just another happy family going about your days. It feels relatable. You guys are great parents, keep up the good work.
Just seen USA. Man cleaning out dryer vents… if your home is more than ten yrs old. Please get your vents cleaned out professionally. Omg it was a firer waiting to happen… we don’t have these in England…. WOW!!!! ❤❤❤
Congratulations on packing up early to take the stress off. My husband and I cruise a lot and I have a packing list of clothes so that I can put them together at a moments notice. Also have a checklist of things I need to pack as well as things I need to do around the house (mail hold, paper, lights, etc.) This helps with the stress of...did I do everything/get everything before leaving. When we cruise, we sometimes spend a week or more prior to and sometime a few days after the cruise. I pack several days before leaving and this means that the before and after suitcases sit in the car in the Florida heat for a couple of weeks prior to being worn and they are no worse than if I packed them and wore them next day. It's all about HOW you pack them in the first place. If "smell" is a concern, throw a dryer sheet or two in the luggage.
If you’re at all worried about the clothes smelling, which I wouldn’t be, throw a dryer sheet in each bag. Honestly though I have three grown daughters and I was a single mom most of the time. I was a respiratory therapist and was always looking for shortcuts because I worked a lot and didn’t want to spend all my free time at home working too. So during the change of seasons I packed away the seasons clothes in those vacuum sealed bags so they could just store them easily under their beds. The next season I had to iron them but they didn’t smell. Let me tell you story about the baby the Christmas when she was 8. So the girls were 8, 10, & 12. I asked the baby, Kalyn, what she wanted for Christmas and she said, I want a new coat that nobody else has ever worn so it doesn’t have lumps in it and will keep me warmer. I felt like total crap and took her right then to buy a new coat.
We leave for our big trip to the USA in about 6-7 weeks and I am wanting to pack now! So excited about going to see family and friends again! You can put a dryer sheet in the suitcase to keep it smelling good. When my boys were little and we were visiting Indiana my cousin would grab my boys and tell them that he was going to give them a swirly. They screamed laughed about it. And that was so sweet when Paige fell asleep in her fort. Gosh, I miss those times when we had to carry our little ones to bed. Once I couldn't find one of my sons and I searched the whole house. He had fallen asleep across two dining room chairs that were pushed under the table. So cute! Now my boys are teenagers! Love and hugs from Norway!
Austin & Jess Aww Paigei paige that sweet girl so adorable sleeping and just wanted to be near mom and dad, it melts hearts 💗💓💯 And Lucas with his wild hair 🤭😁 cute as a button. And i just love Micha ❤ ever since she was little 🙏🏻❤💚 I realized i have followed you guys for many years now, since you were only dating and before marriage and all.. long time, but i have not regretted tuning in to your channel one bit. You are my online loveing family and i love you guys to bits and pieces ❤😊 Small soapbars in your allready packed siutcase bags if there is room, and you can use the soap on your trip for what is needed, 2 things in one 😃😉
I always pack super early and I have never had issues with a smell. For the wrinkles you just hang them on a hanger and put them in the bathroom when taking a hot shower. The wrinkles fall right out. Don't forget about the crawling crab in Lucas's closet. Lots of fun to be had.
I feel ya. We’re going to the beach in 2 weeks and I did the same thing with my daughters clothes. I also have totes already ready with other things we need for our stay 🤣🥳 whatever you gotta do!
beautiful beautiful Paige, fast asleep , eyelashes to die for!!! you lucky girl, Lucas is so grown up looking since haircut, Micah is adorable your three children and so good looking , pink poop for Paige hahaha
I've put some dryer sheets in my bags before to keep clothes smelling fresh because I'm like you, I pack way ahead of time to have one less thing to do last minute before I leave!
When you were lying on the bed talking about Helix mattress... You had a ghost 👀😳😳😬 Your light directly behind you kept going on & off 😬😳😳👀 So HAPPY you both will be feeling better to go on your Vacation... GBY ALL 🙏❤️💙💖💖💙🧸🐕🤗✝️
What baby monitor system do you use for your house? I’ve finally transitioned my boys to their own rooms but my anxiety of not being able to see them is keeping me up at night so would love a recommendation 😊
Im a widow disabled mom and let me tell u everything is on me daily I never get that break cause Dad's aren't in the pics. My best friends brother is dying to cancer so I am leaving at four am to fly to Texas to help my bestie it's first time I ever left my kiddos behind or their side for more than week or even he out of state lol
This tip is not for sharing with the kiddos, so caution!! If they start pushing ice cream more during the cruise it’s because they need to empty a freezer…
I was bullied when I was younger, but never got a "swirly" done to me. It looks like Austin's sciatica is acting up again? I've had it before too and the only thing that relieved it was sleeping on my stomach with my feet hanging over the end of the bed completely straight for several nights. It wasn't comfortable breathing since I'm asthmatic, but my hips didn't hurt anymore.
I am 64 and played "Don't break the Ice" as a kid so I had to buy it for the kids. I bought them Ker-plunk and Mouse Trap too; but haven't given to them yet. Maybe in a future video?
Will never go with any other mattress for my kids or myself and husband!!! Best bed ever!!!
You can put a dryer sheet in to add freshness to the suitcase.
I have that exact clock in my stairwell. Lucas is such a sweet boy! All your babies are so sweet.
Awww…reminds me when my little girl was that little and I could still carry her to bed ❤️. The teen years snuck up on me. Still can’t wait for the cruise videos though!

Prayers for you, Jess, that you get feeling 100% healthy!!!! You have the very best family ever!!!
Much Love!!! Kathilyn❤️🐾🙏

Maple being right there with the kids as they played on the floor 😊❤she is so sweet
For your cruise, pack some Ginger capsules or ginger candy. It helps with seasickness.

Lovely to see Miss Maple!
Austin, I had the same reaction to Paige putting herself to sleep! ❤
I miss the conversations with Stella!
When my kids were younger, i would start packing at least a month before we left. It helped me make sure I had everything we needed and time to purchase the items we still needed.
that was so sweet, I remember when I was that age and that was a loooonnnnng time a go my dad carried me up to bed. all the best to your family.

I see lots of the same thing I was gonna say add a dryer sheet, it will help keep them fresh.
Put fabric softeners in your clothes that you packed and that will work to keep the smell from getting bad❤
beautiful beautiful Paige, fast asleep , eyelashes to die for!!! you lucky girl, Lucas is so grown up looking since haircut, Micah is adorable your three children and so good looking , pink poop for Paige hahaha
Not gonna lie I got a little teary eyed seeing Austin transport Paige 🥹. Gosh time sure does fly.
I've put some dryer sheets in my bags before to keep clothes smelling fresh because I'm like you, I pack way ahead of time to have one less thing to do last minute before I leave!
Good thinking to pack early. Nice to see the kids and Maple, Austin and you Jess. Your hair looks very nice.
I remember when the girls were babies and would crawl through that side table..❤
Happy Day from Ohio
When you were lying on the bed talking about Helix mattress... You had a ghost 👀😳😳😬
Your light directly behind you kept going on & off 😬😳😳👀
So HAPPY you both will be feeling better to go on your Vacation...
GBY ALL 🙏❤️💙💖💖💙🧸🐕🤗✝️
Throw a dryer sheet in the clothes bags to keep the clothes smelling fresh and static free.
What baby monitor system do you use for your house? I’ve finally transitioned my boys to their own rooms but my anxiety of not being able to see them is keeping me up at night so would love a recommendation 😊
Aww Paige ❤ tired herself out!
Your hair looks so cute Jess 😊
Good evening spomer family .. Watching your latest !!!
I always pack weeks early lol. Your clothes won’t smell if they’re clean and the suitcases don’t stink.
Mihcha crawled through that same little side as well when she was a baby too.
Jess do the packing cubes work? I never used them. Do the clothes get wrinkled?
The look on Paige's face when she found out what a swirly is. I almost choked I was laughing so hard.
I love watching because i can pretend i have a family.
Im a widow disabled mom and let me tell u everything is on me daily I never get that break cause Dad's aren't in the pics. My best friends brother is dying to cancer so I am leaving at four am to fly to Texas to help my bestie it's first time I ever left my kiddos behind or their side for more than week or even he out of state lol
Paige is so precious
Happy Day Friends!!
Paige's face when you explained what a swirly is...😂 priceless! Lol
This tip is not for sharing with the kiddos, so caution!!
If they start pushing ice cream more during the cruise it’s because they need to empty a freezer…
I love your workout setup! Where did you get it?
Austin built it for her. 😊
We are going to Gulf Shores the same time and I haven't done anything yet! You have motivated me to start. Made some good points! Less work😂
That is a good thing packing early. I pack 2 weeks early myself lol.
Should do a workout routine video❤ I need some motivation
I was bullied when I was younger, but never got a "swirly" done to me. It looks like Austin's sciatica is acting up again? I've had it before too and the only thing that relieved it was sleeping on my stomach with my feet hanging over the end of the bed completely straight for several nights. It wasn't comfortable breathing since I'm asthmatic, but my hips didn't hurt anymore.
Since you have travel with the kids before. How you go about car seat in the airplane. I will be traveling for the first time with two. Any tips.
My son will be 35 on June 2nd and my daughter will be 32 November 30th
Just thought of a couple of other old games they might like, ker- pluck and mouse- trap where always fun for me to play.
I am 64 and played "Don't break the Ice" as a kid so I had to buy it for the kids. I bought them Ker-plunk and Mouse Trap too; but haven't given to them yet. Maybe in a future video?
My boys are in their 30s and I still see the little boys in them when they sleep(aka napping on couch)
Happy Day Spomers 👋..
Happy day 🙋♀️💜
Don't forget Dramamine in case of motion sickness; wait the girls seem ok on coasters and swings! Lol nvm
great video sweet family
Put dryer sheets in with your clothes. Even in your clothes in a dresser. Happy day
💗
Safe voyage
My brother did a swirly to me.
Dryer sheets in shoes
When is ladies n lattes coming back.
