First i'd like to say this. No one has any right to dictate errors in yours and Crandals parenting with your children ever. You know them better than any of us could. These comments you read are just opinions on what worked for those parents who shared their experiences. There is never a right way to parent, period and if some one wants to mount that pedastal then be prepared to fall. Never tell someone they're doing it wrong. I am very opinionated regarding those who think they know it all and will call yas out in a heart beat. Yes that's me. One day I'll share an experiece. That being said.... All you can do is keep going in and putting them in their beds saying night night. Be sterner and serious but try not to laugh. They will test you like crazy now because they will think it's a new game with mommy. So no game face and giggles mommy and daddy lol. It's like potty training, practice makes perfect. ❤❤
The twins are so stinking cute walking down the asile at Atwood’s! Parenting is the biggest, exhausting challenge in life! Don’t believe anyone who says their kid is perfect!
Funny story about my daughter when she graduated from her crib to a bed at 2 yo… first night, she kept getting out of her bed/room. After 2 or 3 times, her dad & I shut ALL of the lights off and hid when she came out to the living room… she was so shocked and went straight back to bed and never did it again. 😂 She is turning 23 next week and doing great!
I don't know why people would say that about crying. I thought at this age is when they do the most crying. They want to communicate and can't so they get very frushtrated. Great job dad.
I find it hard to believe that anyone would have the nerve to say negative things about your boys. It's the number 1 unwritten rule of all polite society....kids are off limits! How dare anyone critisize. That really upsets me Crandall. And for the record, your boys are awesome. They cry....OMG...all kids cry! Adults cry too. It's normal, it's healthy. It's how our babes tell us that something is not right. They don't have the words. You and Marcy are teaching your boys to be good, decent young people, and all of these moments are the building blocks to the men they'll become. You're doing great! Don't let anyone make you feel 'less than'. We need more parents like you two. We make mistakes, we move on. My husband said one time to our son (at age 2) in frustration, "Why don't you act your age?"...LOL. We both started laughing. I said to him "He is acting his age, and so are you!" Haha over 30 years later we still laugh about that one. Don't sweat it you guys, you're going to make mistakes, you're going to second guess yourselves. I'm sure all the YT 'noise' is hard to ignore, but just carry on. Your life, your decisions, your mistakes/failures, your successes and wins! Just because you choose to share parts of your lives on socmed this way, does not make it our business. Set your boundaries when the need arises, speak up. Negative comments about your children are definitely a no-no. Sorry...didn't intend to ramble....forgive an old(er) lady.
The thing to realize is you are working on “your” schedule not somebody else’s! You are working on what you are used to, not what somebody else did. Transition is always hard when you have toddlers and three times is hard when you have two of them. Lol. So never apologize, you and Marci were used to being together all the time to help each other. Now you have to adjust something else. Do it your way and never worry about what other people think please. You both are doing such a wonderful job with the kids. You’re open to suggestions, but don’t let anybody ever tell you you’re not doing it right. Only you as parents of your children’ know what’s right. 😘
Just a thought from a tip I got from the show "The Nanny". Every time they get out of bed, you go in and put them back in it. It may take awhile when you first start but eventually they will get the message that they have to stay in their beds. It's maybe worth a try and it can be really tiring when you first start. She also suggests that you sit in the room, not saying anything to them, until they get used to it. 😁❤
There are boxes that fit over plugged into outlets. Supposedly childproof but then again the twins are ELDREDGES! All bets are off😂 Watching all daily VLOGS on my feed first❤
Marci like l said yesterday. Put him on your bed. You get on your tummy, and slide off your bed feet first. Teach him how to do it. My California King was super high. I taught my son to do it when he was a baby. Only took 1 try!! It will work. He was only crawling. e
Your kids are so adorable and smart. You two are great parents. People shouldn't watch if a crying child bothers them. Kids cry and it is very normal . Love your channel and your family.
Marci, you’re such a good Momma! You’re both great parents, so don’t worry about the negative comments. Thanks for sharing with us. I’m sure you’re helping other young parents to navigate life with little ones. Someday you will miss these days, so don’t stress too much. It’s all part of your sweet life!❤️🙏
Morning everyone, Crandall, i think you and Marci are grrrrreat parents and have such precious boys all three. Yes Crandall, children does cry very normal.....Marci, she's a great momma y🤜u betcha always remembering the twins drink.....You both keep doin what yall do bc you're doin it right..... Time has wings and before you know it, they will be in school...God continue to keep blessing you and your family. Maverick, you🤜 are such an adorable boy... Much ❤❤to you all....
Harvey said the same thing when Marci asked him to say Paxton lol they are adorable and yall are in the best season of life IMHO. Your boys are just precious
I know you couldn’t wait for postage and or if your store sells them , but best wire (side) cutters I have ever seen and used is a CRESCENT brand. They changed the swivel part in them so they cut through even a thick nail. Amazing. I know you were just after wire ones but they have these as well, which are the best I have had… CRESCENT SELF-ADJUSTING WIRE STRIPPER CUTTER & CRIMPER 0.2-6MM CWS1
My twins weren't perfect. But they are great adults. Both sets of twin s. All girls. I love your boys. I only have one son. Bless you and Marcie. Great parent. ❤
Oh Wow Crandall 🎉You are a hard working man,,,And to be at your age you have so much knowledge and you will teach your son's the know how of different things 🎉🎉
I know I had to adjust my schedule as they grew older and went through those changes, which included a 30 min quiet time reading books, playing quietly in their crib with a special nighttime toy, listening to lullaby magic lullaby songs, watching Good Night Sleep Tight music video, and telling quiet poems and stories while they were in their bed All these, while they were in their bed. I could never have done it without those good night tools, and they were very successful helping me get they quieted down in preparation for sleep time. I love listening to quiet music with them and it takes au my night time stress as well. Oh I had a special totem of quiet interactive books and toys only for quiet bed time. They really looked forward to those.
As I have mentioned to u I had twins training was hard in there beds we put mattresses on the floor for few weeks than beds . Also what we did cut door in half like a barn door . That help so much ! And made sure the dressers were tied tj walls . My mother in law lost her five year old girl from climbing the dresser and it fallen on her she use the door to climb . And she passed away .
Crandall and Marci, really enjoyed your video! Looks like Harvey and Paxtyn enjoyed going to the store with you Crandall. And what a cute little helper Maverick is! All 3 are just too cute! Can't wait till your next vlog. Love y'all and God Bless!❤
You guys are great parents the boys will soon learn to go to sleep when you put them to bed but it will take time . I had a friend that was a builder and he took the door off of the bedroom and replace it with a half door and the handle was on the outside so they couldn't open it . There is no right or wrong way of raising toddlers but you guys are doing great. The only other thing you could try is put one in first and wait until that twin falls asleep and then put the other one to bed next. You will workout whats good for you,.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Get some plastic outlet covers for the boys room they fit right in the plugs so they dont get shocked .Put a dresser in front of the plug you use so they cant stick something in it..
I worked part one nights and my husband mostly worked 16 hr days. We had two very young kids. You just have to adapt and do what you have to do. Also, I believe they make plug in covers for cords that lock so kids cannot pull the plugs out, nor can they play with the outlets. Maybe find some of those and the boys won’t be able to unplug everything. Let me know if you buy them and it works!
Your boys are wonderful! You both work so hard and it shows how much your boys come first.’ I saw the “curtain” over your bed and reminds me when we moved in to our house. I had black trash bags on some and bath towels on others. It worked and there were so many other things we needed before the expense of blinds and curtains.
Your routine is your routine-whatever it looks like-that is what the kids are used to so any deviation can upset their schedules. Add in teething and new beds-good luck, it can be brutal. There were times when I had to use the “Mom” tone so they knew I meant business-especially if it would save them from danger. It was used rarely so they took it seriously and listened immediately. Because of shift work the majority of the work was on me. My oldest had to move to a bed at 18 months so his brother could have the crib. Took him 2 weeks to figure out he could get out by himself LOL.
When my son got out of his crib I took 4x4's and plywood the size of the crib mattress and made his bed with the same mattress sheets and blanket and he loved his "real bed" . Plus it still fit his size and gave much more room in his room.
Paxton reminds me so much of my grandson when he was that age, he had the dimples to, they say everyone has a twin somewhere, pax would be my grandsons at that age.
Hello Eldredge Fam. Another wonderful day and I think you are doing terrific. Your children are normal children. Always remember that. Right now the twins are having teething pain and also need more attention. Maverick is so awesome for a three year old!🤗🤗💞💞💙💙
Good evening, Crandall, Marcy, Maverick, and the boys like always love the videos❤ your kids seem very happy to me I think you and Marcy do a awesome job parenting that you do😊
Make sure you inform the home insurance you upgraded the box. It will be good with the policy in the long run. Having someone vested is best if there is a fire etc. It helps you get a refund much easier. My 2nd son just upgrade and added a 2nd box too with an electrian as wel in December. Plus a bigger main box.
Chicken nuggets were my children’s favourite. Living so far from town, around 40 miles it was a weekly treat when we did the shopping. We would all pig out on the way home. KFC was the only store we had. We did have henny penny chicken years ago but all stores closed. They had the best chicken packs with fried banana & pineapple along with baked potatoes that were grown at crookwell nsw. Best spuds in the world…. Making fries (we call them chips) you can tell your eating a crookwell spuds
ok where will I start first Marci go with the standard white tiles - subway tiles will be way better the colours . this way you can change the room decor to anything you want. if you stay with different colours you limited to your choices. also when or if you go to sell the home then buyers will lean more towards homes with neutral decor// you can change the direction of which way the tiles go - such as making it into a herring bone design or ?? you might want to check out patterns to make with those tiles also looking into a local church or homeschooling groups in your area, once you start with them you might not want to place your kids in a normal school, for the dog = my husband says he is amazing with those kids -having them throw the ball and returning it / dropping it to do it over and over again . great job for getting him in an amazing dog school Marci try not to leave the kids allowen in the house or in a warm car , its dangerous in general, also Marci you need to get out of the house more and get with other mom's your age group to help talk about life.
I have grand twins going on Five in August. My daughter moved in with 4 kids. Our twins are girls. Yours are Angels compared to mine. We couldn't keep them in separate bed and they fought. We started giving them consequence if they get out of bed. It helped for awhile. A camera is an excellent idea, but you got to keep on it. It's like a milestone you got to cross. And it's not fun. They wore us out.
Take Paxton to the room by himself and practice with how to get out of bed feet first. Place the bed openings opposite of each other, beds back to back. Have you tried putting them to bed one at a time?
The only thing I can say, the kids will grow up too soon. Enjoy them now. You will look back on this, when they are independent and relive these times and miss them. You are great parents, for those who criticise, don't. Unless you are walking in their shoes you don't really know the full story of what is going on, we only see excerpts. Always be kind.
Those boys are so cute walking down the aisles. Lol on the kid comments. They forgot. Don’t worry about what the nay sayers say. Yall are doing great! Thank you for the video. I enjoyed it.
Twins are twins for sure. Thank goodness it gets better. When you put them down and they get back up just go back in without saying anything and put them back to bed. I saw this on the show the Nanny and it did work.
Hey E Fam, the boys walking in the store was a hoot😂,. One wants pool noodles and the other fishing poles🤣. Mavy us the best working 4 year old I know💪👍 I guess patience is the word🫣. This day too shall pass🤞. JO JO IN VT 💞
Teething is tough on kids they run fevers through up pain in mouth and tummy it is tough no wonder they are cranky. I use to use a wash cloth soaked in clove water and freeze it for my sons to chew on it nubs their gums and eases the pain.
Oh My Goodness The Twins Walking Around The Store With Crandall Was The Sweetest Cutest Thing EVER!!! They Did Sooooo Well 💙💙🌟!!! They Look Much Older Than They Are, Tall Boys!!! Then Maverick Working With His Hammer AND Monitoring The Twins At Nap Time, Awesome 💙🌟!!! I Think The Twins Are Doing Amazing In Their New Beds, I'm Sure It Will Get Easier 🤞♥️. Crandall What If You Built A Shelf And Put Your Small Plug In Cordless Generator In The Twins Room? Just A Thought. Marci How Fun, Swimming, Taking A Walk, Exercising, So Many Activities... To Be Young Again ❤!!! Such A Fun Video 💙🩷💙🩵🩵🙌!!! My Boyfriend Of 16 Years Is A Master Electrician. I Used To Worry But Then Understand He Is So Safe "Safety First" Is His Saying. He Taught My Son A Lot Over The Years Just Like You're Doing Crandall With Maverick. Oh My Son's FAVORITE Snack When He Was Young Was Baby Carrots 🥕. He Would ALWAYS Have His Pockets Full Of Them 🤣, It Was So Cute!!! Western Upstate NY Here 💚🤎💛💜🩷🩵❤️🧡🤍

My youngest got teeth at once when he teethed. It was absolutely horrible for himmand us. I remember his 1st time his gums were tbe color of denim jeans. I thought possibly he fell. Then I realized it was 4 top and 4 bottoms at once. It preceded to be that way for all of tgem. But here was done with teeth by 1yr old. What a blessing. Paxton had same symptoms I think, throwing up etc..
Put Harvey in their by himself til he goes to sleep and then put Paxton to bed. Also don’t go in the room tell them over the monitor to get back in bed. That might shock them to know you’re watching.
I got those boxes when my grandson started coming to my house as an infant, now he's a curious 2½ yr old. The bad thing with the boxes is, they can still pull on the electrical cord of the component, camera, monitor, TV, sound machine or lamp and pull it off on top of themselves.
Children are children and they will alway try you to see what they can get away with. That's how they learn what the rules are. With 3 it seems hard right now hang in they will get their. Look what a good child Mavrick is and the twins will be the same way when they get a little older. This is your children and you have to be the parents that you choose to be. Keep up the good work.
I really enjoy the boys. When you were in the store the boys were really cute. They learn by example from their parents. I never had a problem putting my son down for naps so I think your problem is they are both together. That would make the difference. 😵💫🥴🥱❤❤❤
I read some of the comments and I am shaking my head. Marci and Crandall, I want you two to remember the “Karens” of the world are NOT happy until everyone is unhappy. I am 68 and so I have been around a long time. I had 5 boys, one passed as a baby, BUT the other 4 are amazing, 3 are married and dads. So, as the saying says “Proof IS IN THE PUDDING!” You both are amazing, hard working, and doing a wonderful job as parents. Wonderful job with your marriage. Why do some say nasty things, they are JEALOUS!!!
The twins are so stinking adorable. It has been so fun seeing how the boys are growing. Maverick and his speech and thought process maturing, and the littles and their talking, not totally clear, but adorable and sweet sounding. Sad, toddlers cry, giggle, laugh, show frustration, anger, cuddle, bite, pull hair, slap/hit. THEY ARE WONDERFUL littles. People are sick--must be some real moron trolls spamming you. Maverick may need to be a plumber or electrician so he can charge upwards of $200 per call B4 work even gets done!😛😬
We see just a snippet from your day and if there's a child crying some people think that's all they do. Usually we see about 20-25 minutes out of your 24 hour day. I don't get it. You're probably right about the reasons people say those things.
