Congratulations, I already thought so from the last two videos. You have the glory on your face that only expectant mothers have. All love and good. I only found your channel 2 months ago, since then I've been sharing your videos like crazy, I hope you get a lot of subscribers from Germany too. You're doing so well, I admire you so much. greetings from Munich
Congratulations mama!! 💙 best blessing on your preg journey!! I bet the little /Big ones are so excited as well!! ✨❤️ I was so excited you linked your vacuum!! I actually go through vacuums allot ! So im currently using a shop vac!🥴 LOL! I been trying to find the perfect one will give this one a try!!👍 Look forward to your bread recipe as well! N your house is just Amazingly filled of beauty n history of your family 💞I love that!! And your nursery with open view 🪟 is gorgeous God Bless!!
Congratulations on the new addition! We can’t wait to join in on the journey! ❤ Side note, Aldi has dye free knock off doritos! Lol we treat ourselves with those every once in a while and they are just as tasty! Gonna have to try this taco salad with those, as you now have me craving it! Yum!
As a mama of 6, you are absolutely right in that you learn to manage your time better. Each child has taught me so much and made me a better person. Congratulations on baby number 5! So exciting. ❤ I always look for quilts, wooden utensils, and glass dishes when I’m thrifting. :)
Congratulations on baby number 5! My grandpa was a number 5, my father was a number 5, I am number 5, I married a number 5. There is something special about number 5s. And of course, my husband and I had a number 5. So special. God is good.
This is the first video of yours I've watched and I subscribed within the first 3 minutes 😂 you're adorable and I love everything about your channel, vibes, ethos, etc etc. I'm nearly 40 with 2 boys and a Bubba on the way and building a legacy home for them to enjoy and inherit is vital! I also learned to quilt from RU-vid and have made 2 bed sized ones on the last 5 years and some adorable lap sized quilts... Be warned it's addictive! But solo therapeutic ❤ oh and congratulations! Xxx
I'm a relatively new subscriber and have watched a few of your most recent videos and I wondered if you were expecting! How wonderful for you and your family! God is amazing!! Wishing you a peaceful pregnancy!
I was wondering if it was Catalina dressing. I love taco 🌮 salad yours looks awesome. A quick way to cut cherry tomatoes 🍅 from Rachel Ray is to take a container cover and put it over the top of a bunch of them and you can cut them easy. Congratulations how far will it be between Earnie??? It will be nice for him to have a sibling closer in age. I know he must love the older ones and want to be a big kid to. Family treasures past down family history.
Congratulations! Also those quilts are beautiful! My mother is a quilter so I've been around them all my life (she sews by machine). Definitely an art form worth learning!
Congratulations! Your videos have been such an inspiration as we switch to a slower self-sufficient lifestyle. You are such a pleasure to watch and can’t wait to follow along for baby #5💛
Congratulations! I’m also pregnant with baby number 5, but unfortunately my first trimester is not as kind to me. 😅 At least I have a nice video to enjoy while laid up with nausea and exhaustion.
Ok, so my mom and sister are both quilters. My mom's mom (my gma) is a quilter too. I LOVE that you have a descriptive note to go with each of the quilts. What a treasure!!! I'm so thankful they were gifted to you becuase you seem to understand the value in these sweet pieces!!
This is my second video I watched from you, and OMG I you are admirable, COngrats on your new Baby, We do celebrate this news, and thank you for sharing with us.
Am I correct in remembering your last was an unassisted homebirth? And if you shared that experience, could you link me to it? We just found out we're expecting baby #6! And we had a home birth with baby #5 and it was incredible.
I rarely comment even with close friends... today before beginning my day I want to tell you... You really surprise me at every turn. And, I'm not at all surprised that you've been a success on social media. Congratulations, so very well deserved!!! I've become memorized when viewing your wonderfully crafted videos, and now have found your shorts. This morning, I've just checked out your home page. You have wonderful content at a glance. I'm a complete stranger, and yet I feel warm and uplifted upon discovering a new part of the sequel of yall's lives. Your day to day, wow! Most importantly, I respect your love of God. How you’ve expressed your wish to place him first. Your wish to follow His Will is so very strongly expressed that it pulls me into the rest of your lovely life and how well you've been giving examples of how to live as close to His principles as humanly possible. It's so refreshing not to see the ugly side of life protrad. We as humans have our responsibility to strive to live it as best we can. The only source truly is from God's Word. So thank you for staying steadfast. I dare say we are set a part in our doctrine, but His truths work through to give unity in our actions, and it shines through to loving others as He has first loved us. If we try our best. And you are the real deal, such a strong woman, and yet so tender as we all want to be. God Bless You Today and Always! I will keep watching, but I will need to pace myself... lol. Again, thank you! 🤗🤟🥰
Oh, and your sourdough recipes are how I found you... I've baked very little, but found success through a sweet lady who had the rep of the Queen of sourdough...😊 she gave me some newly fed starter. I have since paid it forward, and shared some as well. My mom loves sourdough, but my hubby doesn't. So, during times when mom is with us, I bake for her and myself. I really like the bread loaf pans you use, hope to buy some. Thanks for all the wonderful pointers you give as you go about your day! See you later when I can watch some more... 😊
Pregnant! I figured. Lol. Congratulations. I'm 16 weeks now and finally over the the fatigue. If everything goes well this will be my second home birth too. The last one wasn't planned so hopefully will be a little more prepared this time. Especially where the mattress is concerned 😅 I'd love to try a water birth but unfortunately that's not an option ☹️ I know all about having a messy house. My kids are 4, 3, & 2.
Yay!! You got this! Have you found a midwife who will come to your house for the birth? I'm planning our 3rd homebirth, our first 2 were uncomplicated hospital births. I am 37 wks now.
No normal woman with children has a house that is totally clean at any given time. Maybe the day before Thanksgiving---NAH! I have had a big set of Pfaltzgraff "Independence," which is the grayish/blue set. You should google the info about the original production of the brand--it's interesting. I've added to my set at resale/antique shops over the years at really low prices. Also~you probably know this, but never wash your antique quilts in the washer. It will quickly shred the fibers of the old fabric, and destroy the cotton batting. I chose to write with a fine point sharpie the provenance of each treasured. I wrote a small note in a corner of the back of each one, so that my children will know that it is part of their heritage. I didn't tell my mother or grandmother, though! 😬 Blessings!
I am a new subscriber, and I loved your video on Cheesemaking. I bought the book you recommended and such a random thing, but the author lives right down the road from me! I thought you might find it interesting. Love your channel and congratulations on the new baby. Hugs from Oregon!
What kind of sauce did you use on it? I’m a moma of 5 who found out early on I don’t ovulate. Thankfully I only had to take 1 pill 6 days out of the month to get pregnant. My first we tried a year before finding out about my situation then 3 months charting cycles and 3 months trying before we finally conceived. My 2nd it took 4 months of trying so with my 3rd we thought maybe 5 to 6 months. I got pregnant the first month. With my 4th pregnancy my doc thought because I was in my early 30’s it might take longer so she increased the dosage only to the second lowest dose and surprise we god boy and girl twins. God has a sense of humor because my husband said if they’d been first that would have been it. Mine are now 25, 22, 20 and the twins are 15. I miss so much having littles! Time truly does fly by. I’m now 47 and had planned to just enjoy my one day grandkids but with the way things are going and no one else in my family is taking it seriously I feel like I’ve got to learn a new way of life to protect them all. I saw your homemade laundry soap video first and I make one very similar except mine is all dry ingredients. Same ingredients just dry. I use 1 tablespoonful for a regular load and 2 for a heavy load. I don’t have a lot of room in my home either for storage. My daughter just brought home from a school ag project 2 baby quail. We did this years ago when they had chickens. But we ended up with 5 roosters! They had to go. I think we got a female and male quail. I’m hoping to raise them and then get chickens. We have 5 acres so I’m thinking goats would provide meat and milk instead of cows. We used to have 2 horses we adored but they were a money pit. One died of old age so we gave the other to a friends brother who had 2 little boys and only 1 horse. Now they have 2. I have no idea how to care for birds or goats. I do have a stepdad that’s a veterinarian. But I want to learn how to do things the old ways and all natural if possible. My husbands mamaw has told me how back when she was young she would go out in the yard and pick the bird for supper then would grab it and have it’s neck wrung in a second. I’m not sure I can do it. It may be up to the hubby to do that. I’m so tender hearted and can’t stand the thought of ending anything’s life though I know we have to eat. I’ve even thought about maybe getting some pigs later if we do ok with the chickens and goats. I’m thinking we can trade for hamburger and steak since we live in the south in the country. Your laundry video randomly popped up on my feed and I’m hoping to learn a lot. I love seeing younger generations living the lifestyle we should have been living all along. I just wish my family that knew how to do all of these things were still with us. May God bless you and your precious family!
What is it about cordless vacuums I break them all the time too!! 😅 Just saw your fifth pregnancy announcement on Instagram, I am also pregnant with my fifth baby “still keeping it a secret for now so I couldn’t share it on Insta lol” Congratulations from a fellow Catholic mom! ❤ my oldest child is still only five, but she will be six by the time the next one is born. I’ve got to say I love following along with other large Catholic families, makes me feel so much less alone in this world where it seeing as “too many children.“ Thank you for your videos 🤍
We don't usually eat Doritos, but if there are some at a picnic, I indulge. I had no idea it had red 40 in it! I will probably not eat them again...but that's my choice. Everyone should have freedom to do what they want!
Great news, congratulations! Love your channel and yes miele vacuums are the best! I currently have 3, one which is very old, you just can’t kill them!!! Oh and btw, you are just glowing, your skin is amazing❤
Congrats! 🎉❤ You are one of my favorite channels ever. I was so so excited to see a “maybe bump” in the last video as you were moving about and got so excited for your family! God is Good! Children are such a gift. Wishing you a smooth pregnancy, and smooth and easy delivery and postpartum recovery. You, baby, and family will be in my prayers!!! ❤
I had been binging your videos and caught the last couple new releases sometime last week and could tell you were pregnant in these last couple. I thought you had already announced it lol
I've just ordered my 7th? 8th? Maybe more sourdough starter. I have failed at this small homesteading task so many times. But I am determined to figure it out and not kill it this time! Yay for another home birth! Your home is lovely ❤
If you really struggle, watch The Elliot Homestead's dry starter video. It made it so much easier for me to do sourdough. No feeding and discarding and the starter lives in the fridge ☺️
Thanks for sharing your cute farm life, house, etc. I'd love to see how you make your sourdough - your dough looks incredible! I make some bread, but I am intimidated and many of the recipes out there seem daunting! Thanks again :)
Also, where are your kiddos?? Is this naptime? I only have three kiddos and no matter what I'm doing, they're always underfoot. haha. And I just assumed you homeschool, so maybe that's an incorrect assumption. Again, first time video here! haha (I had to watch in hitches b/c of work_ ~Ashley
Hello. I am new to your channel. So where are you located? You make me think of the Midwest. I was raised near my Amish/Mennonite family. I like down to earth cooking.
Congratulations! I am a new subscriber and actually a master quilter. After watching you move through your days, I am convinced you will be an exceptional quilter. Once you get the time to sit down and do it. You are truly an inspiration! I’m surprised you didn’t make the Doritos from scratch 😂…. many thanks for your content!
We call them walking tacos (when you make them in the small Doritos bags) Congrats btw! I knew it was coming!!! Lol Beautiful video, now come decorate my house! I have the bones, just not the room or pieces. I have trouble "fitting" it all in the way I want. I took just stand there and eat my sun sugars! They are so sweet and low acidic.
“Contraband “ that is so funny, I’m 64 and that’s what I called junk food when I was raising my 4 kids ! My kiddos would help bring in groceries and put them away and would come across a beloved junk food and YELL “woo hoo, mom bought contraband!”
I’m a new subscriber from England I have been married since 1992, we have 2 grown daughters and 2 adorable grandchildren. It’s lovely to see young wives and mothers carrying on the domestic arts! Congratulations on your pregnancy! I am so happy for you!
Your house is just fine as it is !! It's lived in..a lovely family lives there. There is no decor or shelf trinkets that could make a family home more lovely than one which is obviously lived in by a healthy happy family. That decor cannot be bought. Lets just step over toys & socks and get to canning & making butter and cheese & coconut pie. 😁😉😘
Do you guys eat meat on fridays? I thought you mentioned it was a friday and I was wondering if I would get meat free inspiration now that you guys are Catholic. But if you do eat meat on fridays, I know not to expect that. Congratulations on the new baby! I am 11w into my 6th baby's pregnancy, so April baby. When are you due?
Yay!! Congrats on baby #5!!! It wasn't that long ago that I watched the video of you saying you'd like to be pregnant again, so so exciting. And yes! Mini house tour lol we love it!! That fire place ughh 😍😍 gorgeous! And the floor planks!!!! But also, 🤣 doritos is contraband lol. We do the same, I've really started making my own snacks the biggest is Graham crackers.
Congratulations!!! This blessed child is so fortunate to be born into your family!! Those mugs you found are German and very expensive. You scored!! Hoping to learn about making sourdough, I have the starter going. Love the story about the traveling bread, I would have thought the movement of the car would cause it to go flat. LOL You have so inspired me I now have a cheese mold... I soooo look forward to your videos!
