LOL My hubby walked 1/2 mile to the PIggly Wiggly for a jar of green olives 32 years ago when I was pregnant with my first child. A symbol of his love and dedication to me in our first year of marriage. The sign of a GOOD man.
The mold will form between the bales and the tarp as well. Try and find some free wooden skids/pallets and use them to make a floor to stack the hay on
When I was pregnant with my 3rd and last baby, I was almost 30 years old and my cravings were insane. My sweet husband would go buy the gallon ballpark size pickles and I would use a spoon and scoop out the insides and then stuff the pickle with hot buttery popcorn. It was sooo good. Then I chomped on cherry lime ice from Sonic. I craved the sour bitter flavors. All three of my kids were born in the heat of Oklahoma summers so I would eat my “sours” and drink water all day and run to pee all night 🤣 I had my kids at 19,21, and 29 years old. I’m 46 now with two beautiful grands. Married 27years to my high school sweetheart living on our 4 acre homestead, homeschooling my grandson and my almost 17 year old son. Life is a beautiful blessing. God bless.
Pregnancy cravings... I had been dealing with infertility for over three years and had given up. My husband walked in on me after grocery shopping and I had just finished eating a whole jar of green olives and a quart of egg nog. I never bought green olives, I hated them back then. Five days in a row I did that same thing. After the second day he said 'you're pregnant!' I did not believe it because I had been through so many disappointments. I waited six more weeks to test, it was positive!
The plastic MAY make the mold problem worse. If that doesn't work put either pallets or boards under the bottom to increase air flow around the hay. God bless
This is fun, My husband had my cravings and he gained more weight than I did, I gained 22lb he gained 40lb, he told me no more children, it took him 3 months to get the baby fat off Lol 😂
My husband would have never waited on me like you wait on your wife. . I’ve never seen a husband be as attentive as you homesteaders. I worked full time outside the home and returned to work (under pressure) when baby was 10 days old. It’s impressive how much you homesteading husbands are involved with your children and sweet/attentive to your wives.
I was forced into going back early. I had had a c-section and the doctor wanted me out 2more weeks. They said I wouldn’t have a job if I didn’t come back. So I talked the doctor into letting me go back. I was a nurses aide.
@@cynthiafisher9907 that was going on 36 years this year. I found out from a union rep after I was back that they couldn’t do that. But, I was a single mom by choice. Met my husband when he was 11 months.As it is my son was 2 years old when I found myself disabled from lifting a2 person lift by myself.
I had a chilli craving when I was pregnant. Passed by this real “ hole in the wall” greasy bar in Detroit, had to go to the bathroom. When I came out, smelled this wonderful chilli smell and just had to get a cup to go. I craved that so much when I got home, that I made the trip back there every night for two weeks. ( we lived 30 miles away!) Until that wonderful woman made me a large crock pot of her chilli to take home. Crazy cravings.
I had tuna fish either in a sandwich or in a salad for the first 5 months. And a peanut butter and jelly sandwich before going to bed. Couldn’t stand the smell of perking coffee. Would go to the cafeteria at work and have to leave if they were making coffee. I was a nurses aide in a nursing home.
After nausea was gone around week 14 I craved spaghetti carbonara multiple times a week. My husband made it for me until the end of my pregnancy in September. Haven’t had spaghetti carbonara ever since 😂
One day I was craving green beans with new potatoes and fat back for seasoning. I went to the grocery store and bought a huge bag of beans. Nothing more. Cashier said, "Baby craving beans"??
Oh, pregnancy food cravings. I'm in my seventies now and will never forget the time my husband went to the grocery store for naval oranges. He came back with four oranges, and I practically inhaled them in a few minutes. I remember crying, "only four?". But he wasn't going back. I don't think anyone can understand that hair-pulling madness of a pregnant woman with a desperate food craving except another woman who has had it. You are a good husband and father, Art. You deserve that wonderful woman you are married to.
After three pregnancys, I have to say, I only had cravings with my middle child. He was my largest baby. I craved chicken chow mei from a local chinese restaurant. Fridays were my husband's pay day and he knew I was glued to the window waiting for him to come home with my weekly dose. So I understand her need.
🤔🤔. With our first son we lived in military in KY and being from California I craved greasy Mexican food. Back then no one in that area had any nor how to cook tacos and etc. The Commissary had canned Patio shells and also pinto beans so I had to make all of my own cravings eating one by one each fried shell for tacos and tostadas and I cooked up a big pot of beans then refried them in lard a neighbor had given me. My in laws gathered up all the supplies from nearby Mexican restaurant in California and sent me all I craved a week later including a tortilla press and bags of masa. I could smell it when husband had picked it up and said dogs followed him to the truck. I ripped it open and was content just to smell all that goodness then stayed up all night making all the tortillas and ate it for days with a huge smile UNTIL the next trimester fried pickles and peanut butter added to the Mexican food became my go to. Am certain hubby would have driven days to help satisfy my cravings but back in 60s it didn’t work that way. Everything was territorial and Mail was slow if at all. If on Post you could ask the Commissary to order whatever but sometimes it wasn’t an option. But quickly I snapped out of the weird cravings when on a late night run my husband got in an head on accident on two lane road when trucker fell asleep an my hubby drove into a tree which saved him from going over a huge cliff. That phone call numbed me and ended cravings and almost my pregnancy. Never had cravings with any other babies cus remembered how very lucky we were and yes how greedy I was knowing that man and a great father could have not been here to hold his babies tiny hands. One can certainly see how happy you are Art having this precious baby or babies. Just be careful on the road and maybe take Grace with you just to help ya stay awake. Bri May be carrying this new life but you as well are making home a special place too by keeping her happy. Just grateful that you and Grace can cook and Grace is a hardworker helping you with the chores allowing mom to sneak that nap. ❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
A friend of mine NEEDED peppermint ice cream during a pregnancy craving. We drove around for hours looking for peppermint ice cream in August and never found any. It’s easy to find it in the winter, especially around Christmas, but apparently not so much in the summer. I still remember how disappointed she was we couldn’t find it...and that was over 20 years ago.
Currently pregnant and I totally understand and share Bri’s cravings. Fried pickles, pad Thai, Panera salad, chips with sour cream. And she is totally right about homemade ranch being the most important part!
When I was pregnant, I craved assorted meat subs toasted with triple pickled hot banana peppers. I needed them 2 - 3 times a week. I’ve never heard of fried pickles, but they do sound yummy. God Bless you Bri, your pregnancy, your family and homestead.
A few years back when Brie was last pregnant I never really paid attention to pregnant women symptoms but now I'm pregnant myself I can relate so much! I feel you momma! We gotta eat what we gotta eat and those midday pregnant lady naps are the best! 😂. Praying that you will have two healthy babies in there come your next scan 🙏 xxx
I could go for fried pickles and I haven't been pregnant for 13 years! Art, you're a hard-working man and a great husband and father! Your family's lucky to have you!
As a women 24 weeks pregnant with number 2, I cried at the seriousness Art took about Bri's craving note. I have an awesome husband too. He drove to the store at 8pm the other day to get me some weirdness without a single sigh. Lol
My first pregnancy my craving was sour gummy worms and Pepsi My second was anything potato. Mashed, french fries, tots, buttered, baked ANY type of potato I wanted. This go round is mostly pad thai. But now I'm craving fried pickles...
My mother always said ,if you're craving something, either you or the baby need something in it. I craved grapefruit and lemons with no sugar and unsweetened cranberry juice and cream cheese and grape jelly sandwich s.
I only had actual cravings with my son. In the beginning all I wanted was tacos and orange juice. At the end tho it was chicken sandwhiches and cinnamon buns 😂
My mom ate tons of tomatoes while pregnant with me. My paternal grandmother said you’ll mark that baby. Mom said no this baby will be fine. I hate to say it, but gramma was right. I HATE HATE HATE tomatoes. 💙
With my first I had cravings for fresh fruit - cravings for cherries in a Melbourne winter! She still mostly prefers raw fruit and vegetables. My second, it was white starch and fat - fries, noodles with butter, white bread and butter, pasta and butter. A steamed green bean made me retch. And he eats an okay diet now, but he was over 9lb at birth, and he's been taller than me since he was 10 years old.
I craved a burrito with everything ...an order of potatoes ole lay with hot melted cheese sauce and a side order of jalapenos. and all of this at 3am cause I worked 3rd shift. congrats on baby. eat what u want. love and peace
I put all our hay, round and square bales, on pallets. If it's in an area where there's a lot of water runoff, I double stack pallets first and sandwich plastic between the pallets. You need air flow under them to stop the mold.
When I was expecting my daughter, Monica, I craved any kind of potato I could get. I would come home from work and boil two potatoes and eat them before fixing supper for my husband. When I was expecting my son, it was anything sloppy!! Soup and cornbread, a hamburger with anything on it, anything that was messy. And his room was that way for the last couple of years he lived here. haha
Corn dogs and bean burritos. I couldn't get enough! Then as soon as the baby comes it all abruptly stops...back to normal. It's an interesting feeling.
I read through the comments to see what people craved....we adopted our son so no cravings for me except to hurry and get here. There was some awful sounding concoctions in the stories below, but if it works that is what you need to eat. Your body knows what it just has to have. Thank you Art, for catering to Bri's cravings, you're a fine husband.
Grace is such an amazing girl. She's so hardworking and knowledgeable for her age. I'm sure you know this and you're very proud of her. Best wishes from Ireland x
Bologna and sauerkraut for number 2, cheese quesadilla for number 1 and salad for number 3. My mom had twins and she had cravings for radishes. One twin loves them and one twin hates them 🤣
I don't need pregnancy to love me some fried pickles! The only thing I really craved when pregnant was snow cones. I'd drive around to all the summer festivals to get it from the food trucks until one day someone told me to try the Sonic slushies to see if they did the trick. Thankfully, they did!
I give pallets to all my farmer friends that want them for hay and straw. Keeps them up off the ground with air circulation. Businesses are happy to not have to throw them out.
With my first I knew I was pregnant 1 week before I could test cause I fell in love with fried pickles, and I never eat pickles. As soon as I bit into it I knew I was pregnant
I would love to have "sunshine" streaming through the windows! Even just one in the living room (we have too many windows). We have such gloomy winters here, mostly we get "snow-shine" which just isn't the same as wonderful, glorious sunshine!!! Looking forward to spring!!
When I was pregnant with our daughter, my husband had to bring me Fish & Chips *at least* once a week (with EXTRA tartar sauce)! The best ones came from a restaurant about an hour from home! Interestingly, our daughter has *always* loved fish!
Craved fresh strawberries with my first son. It was the middle of winter 40 years ago so had to have frozen ones till fresh ones came on season . The second son for about a month I craved hot sauce and extra sharp cheese every day. Back then I did not like hit things . But loved that. Was surprised I could eat it because I had morning sickness for 7 months. My last I could not eat much without being sick. I only gained 15 pounds snd he came 6 weeks early. I had high blood pressure with him ! He was 5’4” at birth both his brothers were 8 lbs. but he was 20 1/2 inches like his brothers. He is 18 and 6ft 3. Inches and still growing. ( A couple years ago he broke both bones in his left arm and has plates and screws in it, and the doctor said then he had at least another 5-6 years of growing to do yet! He had grown 3 inches since that. So not sure how tall he will get.). But he is a healthy young man and has been.
I live in New York mountains...hay is expensive here too...to save it from rotting, put a layer of cheap straw bales down first straight on the barn floor (whole not broken open), then lay the good hay on top, as high as your comfortable...I've been able to use the straw bales all year...saving my hay perfectly. And I get about 2 tons at a time... Then when they're spent use the straw bales as garden mulch...Be Blessed
God bless pregnant women. I loved it when my wife was pregnant. One night at 2AM she had a craving for double stuffed Oreo cookies, at the time 1994, nothing except gas stations were open at night. It took me two hours to find them, but I certainly didn't mind. Many other cravings but, that was the one I remember the best.
My pregnancy cravings were fried fish, mashed potatoes, corn and whole pickles. My sweet craving was strawberry swirl ice cream. We'd never even heard about fried pickles. I'd probably have had that craving also. Stay happy, healthy, hydrated and safe. May God continue to bless you and your family.
Fried pickles sounds like something you'd find at the Los Angeles County Fair. Fried bananas, twinkies, extra. Never heard of fried pickles. They look good. Enjoy Bri. Great seeing Grace step up to the chores. Looking forward to seeing some geese.
When my wife was pregnant we were in Germany. Her craving was bananas and they weren’t readily available. I had to drive all over Bremerhaven til I found an ice cream parlor that had bananas. They thought I was crazy when I told them all I wanted was a couple of bananas They were a premium and were rationed so I paid dearly for them, but it was worth it to keep my wife happy.
You're such a great man Art! I have 7 children and my cravings varied a bit depending on the pregnancy but the most consistent craving were for potatoes...any potato was a good potato back then, and any meat or potato was a good excuse for bbq sauce. I craved more greens/vegetables with one pregnancy and that child...now 44 year old woman has always asked for "green food", so your little one maybe letting you know they will like fried pickles. Love your family!!!
When I was pregnant with my first I craved big mac and chocolate pudding. I also could not get enough milk. This is significant because I NEVER drink milk, even as a child. My children are now 38 & 39
When I was pregnant with my first child I always wanted Jack In The Box tacos extra cheese no sauce(so I could control how much hot sauce I wanted on it) dipped in their ranch and sweet and sour sauce. To this day.... I can't eat their tacos unless I have my sauces with it.
Art, you need to pick up some pallets and stack the hay on them, plastic is going to hold moisture and mold. Bravo for getting Bri those pickles she was craving, Happy Wife , Happy Life!
I've had the mold issue with my hay in several different storage systems. The best way to save your bottom layer is to lay it on it's side so no strings are touching the ground. Further layers can be placed on their strings. Works well and saves money.
A long time ago, my pregnancy cravings were to cut salami, cheddar cheese, and sour pickles into tiny squares and eat them using toothpicks. Why? Who knows☺️
LOL My hubby walked 1/2 mile to the PIggly Wiggly for a jar of green olives 32 years ago when I was pregnant with my first child. A symbol of his love and dedication to me in our first year of marriage. The sign of a GOOD man.
I couldn’t agree more...That’s exactly what a good man would do! Men like that are harder and harder to find!
The mold will form between the bales and the tarp as well. Try and find some free wooden skids/pallets and use them to make a floor to stack the hay on
Yes! Get them up off the ground and on pallets or boards spaced apart! Plastic will still cause the mold problem.

yikes that is a very unhealthy combo, glad you finally got your baby tho. thats a blessing.
A perfect pregnancy craving. I drank pickle juice in my last pregnancy. I'd crave it all day
@@quiverfullmomma137 pickle juice is good for leg cramps too. I will take a swig when my legs are cramping. Works so good.
Congrats! That is a miracle!
@@kathydavie7004 Yes it was!
we store hay on pallets. i think moisture from hay on plastic is going to mold. hope it works out
The plastic MAY make the mold problem worse. If that doesn't work put either pallets or boards under the bottom to increase air flow around the hay. God bless

All your children are beautiful Grace is becoming quite the little young lady. Art you're doing a good job taking care of your family and so is Bri
Art put your hay up on pallets or wood slats. It needs to be up off the ground but have room for air underneath.

That was so sweet that she made you a whole crockpot of it
Now that's a sweet story....
I think a light shining into our windows could be a whole new product. I would buy them for the winter.
I absolutely LOVE seeing how Happy you two seem to be these last couple days ❤️
When my mother was pregnant with me she would sit out in the garden with a salt shaker and a knife and eat tomato’s all day 🍅 ☀️
I had a craving for tomatoes 🍅 on fresh white bread 🍞 xx
my mom ate so many tomatoes when she was pregnant with me my uncles thought I would look like a tomato...they still tease me, I am 54...lol
Another gorgeous video, the music is always so well suited, grace is growing into a beautiful young lady X
I realized I was pregnant when I made chicken salad and added captain crunch cereal to it! Yes I did eat it and I enjoyed it!!
After nausea was gone around week 14 I craved spaghetti carbonara multiple times a week. My husband made it for me until the end of my pregnancy in September. Haven’t had spaghetti carbonara ever since 😂
POINTS for Art ....for being a trooper and satisfying his woman's NEED for fried pickles.
My sister craved corny dogs & Mexican food. I thought we would have to put hot sauce in my nephew’s bottle or he might have withdrawals. 😂

Snickers Cheetos and Fountain Pepsi all together in the same bite and swish it down with Pepsi. YYYuuuuummmm! He never faikled me except once! LOL!
With my first I knew I was pregnant 1 week before I could test cause I fell in love with fried pickles, and I never eat pickles. As soon as I bit into it I knew I was pregnant
Love it when there is lots going on . Bri you are looking so beautiful and happy xx
Grace is such a big help! And I think You are as hard a worker as Justin.!
Ohh, fried pickles are the best. Weather your pregnant or not. What a sweet husband.
I would love to have "sunshine" streaming through the windows! Even just one in the living room (we have too many windows). We have such gloomy winters here, mostly we get "snow-shine" which just isn't the same as wonderful, glorious sunshine!!! Looking forward to spring!!
When I was pregnant with our daughter, my husband had to bring me Fish & Chips *at least* once a week (with EXTRA tartar sauce)! The best ones came from a restaurant about an hour from home! Interestingly, our daughter has *always* loved fish!
My 2nd trimester pregnant wife wants nothing to do with fried food right now. I WISH she did I want some fried goodness!!!
1st baby, oatmeal, bananas, and buttered toast. 2nd baby Spahgetti and garlic bread. 3rd baby Twinkies and chocolate milk.
I never had food cravings but WATER!!!, oh my, I couldn't drink enough and I have never been a big water drinker, it was my only craving.
Craved fresh strawberries with my first son. It was the middle of winter 40 years ago so had to have frozen ones till fresh ones came on season . The second son for about a month I craved hot sauce and extra sharp cheese every day. Back then I did not like hit things . But loved that. Was surprised I could eat it because I had morning sickness for 7 months. My last I could not eat much without being sick. I only gained 15 pounds snd he came 6 weeks early. I had high blood pressure with him ! He was 5’4” at birth both his brothers were 8 lbs. but he was 20 1/2 inches like his brothers. He is 18 and 6ft 3. Inches and still growing. ( A couple years ago he broke both bones in his left arm and has plates and screws in it, and the doctor said then he had at least another 5-6 years of growing to do yet! He had grown 3 inches since that. So not sure how tall he will get.). But he is a healthy young man and has been.
My husband went out to the gas station after midnight more than once to get me my cravings. One was fruit snacks.
During my pregnancy I loved to eat mangoes with medium spicy Tako Bell sauce !😂
I live in New York mountains...hay is expensive here too...to save it from rotting, put a layer of cheap straw bales down first straight on the barn floor (whole not broken open), then lay the good hay on top, as high as your comfortable...I've been able to use the straw bales all year...saving my hay perfectly. And I get about 2 tons at a time...
Then when they're spent use the straw bales as garden mulch...Be Blessed
You have such a wonderful family. Tell Grace she is so beautiful....looks just like her Mama. Really enjoy your videos. Bless you all!
My craving with my first child was pinto beans, cornbread and buttermilk👀
God bless pregnant women. I loved it when my wife was pregnant. One night at 2AM she had a craving for double stuffed Oreo cookies, at the time 1994, nothing except gas stations were open at night. It took me two hours to find them, but I certainly didn't mind. Many other cravings but, that was the one I remember the best.
Blessings to you and your family.
Pickles with whipped cream 😋😂
Pregnancy cravings are strange but there so strong too.
My pregnancy cravings were fried fish, mashed potatoes, corn and whole pickles. My sweet craving was strawberry swirl ice cream.
We'd never even heard about fried pickles. I'd probably have had that craving also.
Stay happy, healthy, hydrated and safe.
May God continue to bless you and your family.
Fried pickles!? 😂 I thought those were fried shrimp when you opened the bag.. when you said fried pickles I was like 🤣🤭
Fried pickles sounds like something you'd find at the Los Angeles County Fair. Fried bananas, twinkies, extra. Never heard of fried pickles. They look good. Enjoy Bri. Great seeing Grace step up to the chores. Looking forward to seeing some geese.
When is next ultra-sound ? Praying little one was just hiding they do that lol🙏🙏🙏🙏xoxo
When my wife was pregnant we were in Germany. Her craving was bananas and they weren’t readily available. I had to drive all over Bremerhaven til I found an ice cream parlor that had bananas. They thought I was crazy when I told them all I wanted was a couple of bananas They were a premium and were rationed so I paid dearly for them, but it was worth it to keep my wife happy.
What a great hubby n future new Dad..... PRESSURE LOL
Yellow onions, peeled eaten raw. Like an apple, dipped in brown mustard... It was .... Yeah .... I dont know... *cravings*
Frito dippers with bean dip and mustard. Hah!
I’ve never been pregnant but NOW I must try fried pickles! Thank you Bri! 😜😂
You're such a great man Art! I have 7 children and my cravings varied a bit depending on the pregnancy but the most consistent craving were for potatoes...any potato was a good potato back then, and any meat or potato was a good excuse for bbq sauce. I craved more greens/vegetables with one pregnancy and that child...now 44 year old woman has always asked for "green food", so your little one maybe letting you know they will like fried pickles. Love your family!!!
My hubby went to the local market to get me chocolate cake with chocolate frosting and fresh cold milk at midnight one night.
When I was pregnant with my first I craved big mac and chocolate pudding.
I also could not get enough milk. This is significant because I NEVER drink milk, even as a child. My children are now 38 & 39
Busy times!!
It has been awhile since my last pregnancy, but I think my consistent craving was for falafel sandwiches 😄❤
When I was pregnant with my first child I always wanted Jack In The Box tacos extra cheese no sauce(so I could control how much hot sauce I wanted on it) dipped in their ranch and sweet and sour sauce. To this day.... I can't eat their tacos unless I have my sauces with it.
Art, you need to pick up some pallets and stack the hay on them, plastic is going to hold moisture and mold. Bravo for getting Bri those pickles she was craving, Happy Wife , Happy Life!
I craved coffee and loved the smell, BUT I don’t drink coffee and hated the taste.
I've had the mold issue with my hay in several different storage systems. The best way to save your bottom layer is to lay it on it's side so no strings are touching the ground. Further layers can be placed on their strings. Works well and saves money.
You don't have to be pregnant to send the hubby out for fried pickles and nachos..lol
A long time ago, my pregnancy cravings were to cut salami, cheddar cheese, and sour pickles into tiny squares and eat them using toothpicks. Why? Who knows☺️
