I sooooo respect and admire you two for being TRANSPARENT, -admitting you have struggles and removing the illusion that life is “perfect” all the time. It’s healthy for YOU to acknowledge it, and it’s healthy for your viewers to hear it. With mental health being a national crisis, you are champions in my eyes. Stay transparent (as you feel led; we all need SOME privacy). So glad you got to take vacay together. ❤❤❤
You guys are the epitome of wholesome fun! Peaches and cream ❤love the positivity of youthful parenting! I had my one and only child at 38! Trust me guys the days are long but the years are short!!!! Enjoy every minute! My son is 8 and he was your daughter’s age literally yesterday 😢😊
I still spend my summers “down the shore.” When my daughter was little she always loved shell hunting. I would buy fancy shells and my husband would secretly throw them while he walked a few feet ahead of us. It was a great feeling to watch how happy she was finding beautiful seashells. We did this for 10 years. And she would always come back to our shore house and save the shells. She’s 20 now and I just told her a few years ago that we put the shells there. She was disappointed that I told her the truth 😂. Someday I will do the same shell hunting with my grandchildren. It’s a fun memory that we have walking on the beach.
The Sun, a friendly face, a beautiful day, a smile, birds singing, a beautiful butterfly are some things that are free, and can be very important for a person. And can be very good for you. Very important but cost no money......!!! 😊👍🏻
This saying never meant anything to me until I had kids and grandkids. (The days are long and the years are short). True statement. Always stay in the moment so you don't miss anything . Love ya'll and God Bless 🙏❣
First holiday with your first child is a huuuge adjustment with feeds/sleeps/sun/sand and heat and fitting in all those activities. This is your steep learning curve and every time you go away again it will be easier than the time before. God bless you all xx
Hailey is the sweetest baby 😍, and I love seeing how you live your life integrating her and not isolating yourself because she's still little, what a fun vacation, I hope you enjoyed it a lot!
One of the best things about this video is getting to see Haley in those cute shorts and her bathing suit. Those chunky little legs with the little fat rolls were the most adorable thing! I think Travis is starting to really realize now that the Bates can be just as competitive as the Clark’s, even though you are a Clark now. You dunked him real good girl! It was hilarious. The first look on his face was like he just couldn’t believe that you were going to shove his head in the cooler. I was laughing so hard. The footage you have of all of you on the carousel and the train is just precious. Hailey loved looking at all the lights and colors and yes, I think she is teething! Drag out the bibs or you’re going to be changing her a lot more due to all the slobber from teething. I cannot wait to see her with her first two little teeth. She will be even more adorable and I never thought that could happen! I’m praying that you are going to pass a kidney stone soon Katie. Glad you’re going back to the doctor. Y’all have a great weekend. Hugs from the south east coast of Florida 😎🦩🌞🦩😎
For babies at the beach: being a small baby pool and push it into the sand a bit. Fill with a bit of water for the little kids. Put baby powder in a sock and use it to get sand off your skin. Pack n play with a fitted crib sheet on top and another on one side for shade and wind works well.
A kidney stone only hurts when its moving. So when your hurting Katie the stone is moving through the ureter. If the gave you a strainer you need to strain all your urine so you will know when it passes. And some drs wants you to bring it in to their office so the can send it for a pathology report on it.
Katie I also get motion sickness. It helps if you can focus on one object in the distance and as you get closer to it then find another object to focus on. Love your family.
Hi Guys!!! Quick tip- it works great! ( My Pediatrician told me) Take cheap thin baby washcloth, wet both ends & put in a ziplock into the freezer. Take your adult finger around stiff & frozen washcloth, & place on baby’s gums… works so well! Better than teething toys!! Best of luck, she’s Awesome!!! Audrey from PA
Katie, I was told that the pain from the kidney stones is mainly when it is moving, that's why the pain comes and goes. When I had mine, that was DEFINITELY the case. I feel for you.
I've been saying this the last few years about myself. I'm a blonde with light Blue eyes and my eyes have been really sensitive to the bright sun and outdoors period!!! I always had my head down or shading my eyes from the sun. I wish that my mom and grandparents would have given me sunglasses to wear. I also should have with my kids as well.
@@dearleah7299 Oh my goodness! This is not a good look for you at all! If you feel the need to Judge, maybe take that Judgmental attitude and turn it around on yourself, cause Nobody asked you anyway...Geez😬😳
@@CrazyCrystal8175 I don’t care how I look to complete strangers on the internet. You obviously do, which is sad and pathetic, but when I see someone telling a parent what to do with their own baby, I will say something. If you don’t like it, oh well. I really don’t care.
Hailey is adorable. You guys are great parents so sweet to see. Also so funny when Travis says you're a great mom you watched Hailey while I had fun... 😂 lol. Beautiful vacation. Love seeing your videos
Thanks for sharing your 1st vacation as a family of 3 and for keeping it real! You guys are real deal! Just a little suggestion to help pass the stones- drink a lot of water and eat more carbs. ENJOY your special moments with Hailey!😍🥰😘
Katie I get motion sickness too, very easily! Sitting in the passenger seat I get motion sickness. Right before I knew I was pregnant with my daughter I got motion sickness even while driving! It has grown worse with time and she’ll be 6 years old this Friday June 16th. I pray you grow out of the motion sickness.
Y’all are so sweet! So glad you had such a great family trip. Hailey is such a cutie patootie. My baby days are over so I’m waiting for grand babies. Frozen waffles make great teething treats. Hope you feel better soon Katie. God Bless you all. 💕
What a beautiful family!❤ God bless you three and all your loved ones and may the joy of the Lord Jesus Christ, peace, health, prosperity and adventures fill your lives all the days of your life, in Jesus name, AMEN!
A hat is definantly a necessity, or at least it was for us😊 I wouldn't be surprised though if Katie had a little hat for her in the footage that was destroyed on the broken SD Card🤔 She's such a good momma😊💕💝
I don't understand why these generations don't put hats or bonnets on babies these day! The wind can make their little ears hurt? Anyway I would listen to you working for a pediatrician!❤❤
Such a beautiful family! I didn’t know until I became a mom myself 4 months ago but babies under 6 months aren’t supposed to wear sunscreen because their skin barrier is vulnerable to the ingredients in it!
Hello - I have experienced kidney stones 5 times; 2 times I passed the stones; 2 times passed after lithotripsy; and about 1 year ago I experienced a stone/s ... only 1 day and haven't had an "attack" since ... not unusual. You may have passed it without knowing or it may still be there. Best of luck with yours, listen to your doctor, drink lots of water and move around a lot. Love your videos; thank you for sharing your life with us. Barbara
POTS is aggravating. My 14 year old granddaughter was diagnosed in January with it. She got in a school bus accident and got a concussion. Then came the passing out and POTS was her new diagnosis😮. If she gets over heated she passes out for a few minutes. scary too. You are a lovely family and I love The Stew Fam too.
I was born at Point Pleasant hospital and live in Brielle. We all went to Manasquan High School, class of 1970, 72, 74, 75 & 99. I love the Jersey Shore. No matter what state I move to I always come back to Brielle ❤
canadian here, sorry about the air. hope its better now. i live in northern Ontario where some of the fires are weve had air quality warning for over a week. usually okay midday but morning and nights are the worse for us. woke up this morning and all you seen in the distance was white
Ah Katie I feel ya with the motion. I went on a tea cup with my son and I usually have Dramamine but I forgot., I just closed my eyes or I focus on the baby and you’ll be good
Hi, I live in Massachusetts so we are also having the poor air quality from the Canada wildfires 😢. I do have a mommy hack for you to use the next time you go to the beach. Buy a cheap shower curtain liner to put in the hole you dig in the sand and fill it with water. It keeps the water from being absorbed by the sand and keeps the water clean also. I’ve lived on the coast/within walking distance of the beach for my whole life and trust me, this hack works. Enjoy 😉
I am praying for you, kidney stones can be very tough. I was lucky that they were able to break all the larger ones that either could have blocked the ureter or hurt the kidney so I would have had to have surgery, or been extremely painful to pass, with ultrasonic therapy. They all were reduced to just small pieces they called 'gravel' and then I was able to pass them. I now am very conscious of drinking lots of water everyday to lower the risk of new ones forming. Rest, and good hydration can make a big difference - get in the habit of having a large bottle of water with you all the time and taking a drink everything you see the bottle!
I am from Northern Jersey up in Bergen County. I do live in Franklin TN now. I spent every summer vacation in Ocean City. Such great memories. The place with the train and carousel still called Gillians? Is their a putt putt next door? We used to rent bikes too and ride them from one end of the boardwalk to the other and of course get donuts. We also bought sweatshirts too. I am now 57 and can't fit in mine but my kids love them. I'm glad you had such a fabulous week. Thank you for the memories!
Haley is cuter by the day. Listen to the little girl. Lol that was funny and Haley talking so cute . I hope we get to see a really good guy laugh when she does it . Babies first belly laughs are great. Pictures were great
So cool seeing every place that our family is used to. Ocean City NJ made the top 10 best family vacation spot.👍 we do a family vacation there with siblings & cousins and me Grammy & of course grandpa. Enjoy the nice weather
Can't wait to see the new vlog and hope you guys have a great Saturday afternoon and evening with baby Hailey and have fun on your guys vacation and can't believe she is 3 and a half months almost 4 months old and she is so cute and adorable.
I believe you both had a little fun pushing each others head in the water with just a tad bit of energy......LOL!!! Your family enjoyed it, could hear the laughing. You two make a beautiful couple. Love all the pictures taken. Cherish the pictures, and moments because Hailey will grow up fast.
