Went from a Toyota 4runner to the Honda odyssey and I have NO regrets!! So much space. I have the uppa baby Cruz and uppababy vista in my trunk with plenty of room for groceries and space to change the baby’s diaper!
Congratulations on the new baby! I’ve been following along and have been pregnant at the same time with you lol my oldest was April ‘19 second Jan ‘21 and just had my youngest Nov ‘23.
We have a Chevy traverse and it’s been great with 3 kids, plenty of trunk space still. We are having our fourth and the double Bob even fits in the trunk with the full third seat in use
We have a Chrysler Pacifica and loveee it. Will never go back from a minivan for a long time, it’s the absolute best with kids. We really wanted a Toyota Sienna or Honda Odyssey, but the Pacifica worked better for our budget and it’s still an amazing vehicle
How do you like the Highlander (taking out the kids and seats situation)? I have three kids and am moving out of the minivan era… mine are 15, 13 and almost 6. One carseat still. I drive an Odyssey and LOVE it! I’m currently shopping for a gently used Highlander, but I’m already missing the missing the cupholders. 😂
I love my 2023 chevy traverse. All of my 3 kids, husband and I fit. We can also fit my 3 kids in the back along with my mother and mother n law. My kids are ages 12, 3,and 1 so we have 2 car seats and we all fit comfortably.
I love the nursery and Kollyns room! They’re absolutely beautiful! I remember when you decorated Emmett’s room, and I still love it. Prayers sent for a safe delivery and healthy momma and baby girl.❤️🙏🏼❤️
We do 3 across in a Nissan Armada. And with the third row down all the time, there's so much trunk space. But we need it for 4 wheel drive (MN) and towing the boat. But if you don't need either of those options, there are better vehicles out there for you. Totally support van life, but I could never do it where we live.
We went from a Highlander to a Chrysler Pacifica. I always said I would never drive a minivan, but now I won't ever not have one! I love it and so convenient with kids! There is so much room, stow and go, and don't have to worry about the kids hitting the doors.
First thing I’m going to suggest it to check out the Car Mom. She has 3 kids one more on the way and drives a Ford Expedition. Most bang for your buck, plenty of trunk space and lots of room for car seats. Technology is great too. She has multiple reviews on all sorts of vehicles on her channel (IG and RU-vid).
I had a highlander like you with the same trouble when I was pregnant with my third. Our kids are the same ages! I got a 2021 ford expedition max limited. I was worried it was gonna be too big, but it really isn't! It has been great with all the people and kids and carseats that we put in and out.
We have a Chrysler Pacifica and I am SO glad we got a van and not an SUV, so much space for the kids and no worries about doors slamming other peoples cars! So much more convenient getting the kids and things in the vehicle!
4runner -I have three kids and fit three very large britax seats in one row and have full back trunk space and fits double bob with still a have trunk to spare. When my thrid was born , I had 3.5, 17 months, and the newborn. One forward, two rear including the newborn carrier. Now theyre all three forward facing in Large britax seats.
Beautiful pale pink crib!!! Can't wait to see baby girl!!! Awww. Love Kolly's new room! Praying everything goes smoothly for you and the baby. Love you! 💕💕
Good morning Brooke!!! Awww, you look beautiful with that perfect bump🩷🩷🩷 Oh I cannot wait to see that new baby girl! And Kolly's room!! Great job on the glucose tests! I think I passed mine too. It's been so long ago, my son is your age lol. I still remember that hyperemesis tho!! 😂😂 Love you!! I hope everything goes very well the next few weeks. 🩷🩷🩷🩷
I’ve been following you since you were pregnant with Emmett! I’m so excited for your precious family to be a family of 5. Everything you bought is absolutely adorable!❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Brooke! Oh, that flowered print, I can't!! Everything is just gorgeous!!! Kolly is getting so big!! Boy they had a mass of friends on the couch!! So cute!! Can't believe I've watched you for ever 5 years!! Love you all!! 🩷🌸🩷🌸🩷🌸
I, too, purchased one of everything off the toddler girl table in Walmart. The shorts and shirts are such good quality and so cheap that I could care less if she gets them dirty and stained at school.
I ordered a bunch of stuff for my daughter, shes 5 but still fits in some of her 4-5 dresses. I bought some in 5-6 and some in 6-7 and the 6 years and 7 years stuff is soooo small. I was super disappointed bc that stuff shrinks so bad…. So annoying lol makes me think twice about ordering again…. Im wondering if maybe the big kids section just isn’t as good.
Hi Brooklyn, I have watched a lot of ur videos when my son was a newBorn , and it used to give me a lot of comfort, as I was a first time mom. Happy that u are uploading content again.
