WELCOME TO THE VLOG! Hope you guys have an awesome day and a great Thanksgiving week in the States. Ellie wants me to make sure you know that she was super annoyed with herself and licking and picking her lips. 😂 We talk about this later too. We're grateful for your understanding with our decision. We're grateful for the flexibility to be able to do these kinds of things and try new things here and there. Again, have an awesome day!
Ellie and Jared I didn’t even notice she was licking her lips😂 you guys are so awesome and you have such a great attitude. Jackson is so nice to Calvin ☺️Great vlog.
Ellie and Jared I can’t stand when people ask me about what I buy! I went to a wal greens for a pregnancy test and the man asked me so are you excited about this or is this an accident??!? I was like um I’m not telling u that! That’s none of your business! What if I wasn’t even buying the test for me???? Not cool at all.
My pet peeve is when people leave their shopping cart in the middle of the parking lot. You push it around the store for an hour but you can’t push it a dozen yards from your car to put it up?! Lol makes me crazy.
So, even if you upload two days behind..doesn't Jared still have to edit every night?? I don't think i'm understanding this correctly...some one help explain!
I read someone down below that by being two days behind he can edit during the day like a normal work day instead of editing late at night and posting in the morning. So basically now he is filming during the day, spending the night with Ellie and then editing footage the next morning.
Huge pet peeve: People leaving negative comments on vloggers videos. I follow several families and it seriously makes me nuts to read the icky comments. (this goes for local FB community groups too). I just can't stand negativity in general ...love you guys!
This ☝🏻!!!! I LOATHE when people are like, “You are nothing without us.” Omg are they psycho?? Why do people “care” that much! When in reality, they aren’t “caring” at all!
My biggest pet peeve is I HATE the sound of people chewing. It’s puts an anger in me I didn’t know existed and it can seriously make me cry. I can understand it’s my own problem, and usually I have to leave the room when it happens. It’s really annoying. Lol
As a former cashier, I can say no matter what a cashier does, it's wrong. You can mind your own business and people think you are rude. You can try to have a conversation, but it's hard to have a conversation with a complete stranger in 5 minutes time, so you comment on their purchase and people get mad about that, too. Some people want everything bagged in a separate bag. Some want you to shove as much in one bag as possible. You can't please everyone, especially when every customer has a separate idea of what good customer service is. Don't even get me started on trying to sell people the store credit card. Those quotas are unrealistic. The cashier is trying the best they can.
I’m a manager at checkouts in the highest ranking supermarket in nz. Our team is trained not make comment about items in a questioning or invasive way. If it’s stuff for a birthday party that’s a conversation starter, if it was tampons or personal products just not mentioning makes it so much nicer for the conversation and customer service is highly important.
I never comment. But I have to say this. Ellie's attitude is SOO annoying. It's clearly that she hates vlogging. She wants to be selfish for Jared. Well guess what, we all have to work. Some of us can't be a stay at home mom. So we don't see our children all day like you do!!! Our husbands aren't with us most of the day.. Jared edited 8 hours in the hospital, but after that he was with you to help you because he does UA-cam. My husband had to leave after 3 days to work. There just isn't any connection like it used to be. Always complaining about what to share what not to share, when to film when not to film in the day so you have more time.. Like seriously if you don't like it, stop it! You certainly don't have to do it for the viewers..
I think vloggers that have been running a week behind have been a lot happier and not so stressed to get that vlog up by the next day. Your marriage is number 1! Nothing else should ever come in the way of that.
Do what you need to do. Marriage before internet. I support you fully no matter what you do. You guys have done so well with vlogging everyday and you have sacrificed so much for vlogging. It’s time to focus on you guys! I support you guys no matter what.
a pet peeve: when I'm walking across an intersection and the cars waiting to turn right rev their engine at me as if they expect me to run and get out of their way. I am disabled and have a walker. It's just rude that these drivers can't respect my need to spend maybe 20 seconds more getting across that lane especially considering that I have a green light and they have a red light. Do you ever have that happen to you, fellow E+J viewers?
It never ceases to amaze me what drivers in the USA get away with! If someone did that to an elderly or disabled person here in the UK, they would get pulled over by the cops for aggressive driving! It's shocking that any driver would think that that's acceptable driving behaviour!
My biggest pet peeve is when people make fun of special needs kids. I want to be a special needs teacher and I love those kids so it makes me so mad when people make fun of them.
Of course I support you in being 2 days behind. As long as I get a daily dose of ellie and jared it doesn't matter when it was filmed. Sometimes if I'm too early befor your vlogs come out I watch old vlogs just to see ur family. I really appreciate all the content you put out, you are such a fun good role model family to watch and I want vlogging to be easy on you. Thanks for letting me and all your other million subscribers be a part of your life!
One of my pet peeve things is when you send a long text message to someone and they respond with “K”... I have a few but that’s one... I don’t mind that your doing the vlogs a few days behind just please put the date in the beginning of the vlog...
I love the idea of being two days behind and you guys getting more time together as a married couple and with your family. It is important for you to do what is best for you. If people cant wait a couple days to see a video then they'll have to get over it!
Marriage and family is much more important than videos and entertainment! You do what is best for you guys xx Thank you for sharing your life and allowing us to have a small part!! Love you guys xo
I don't care when the vlog is filmed I just enjoy seeing you guys daily! I have learned so much from you and your family about how me and my husband want to raise our kids and and just enjoying life in general! Thanks for the videos guys! Love you!
My biggiest pet peeve is repeating myself especially when I know the person heard me and they say it anyway. Also I love you guys and I'm glad you know family comes first. Happy thanksgiving!
Reason I do not watch as much just find it lost the connection with you , but starting watching again see if I can get the connection , don’t no if it’s seems like u don’t feel the same about vloging but love this blog
I agree. It feels like they resent the "work" and find the audience annoying. I know they say they are grateful, but it doesn't feel like it. Maybe Jared is, but Ellie is not. The vlogs already feel fragmented and secretive, like we can't ever know what secret project is going on. I miss seeing their normal day. Bonnie's vlogs are much better at achieving this and she even has a delay, but I feel she does a better job of capturing normal moments so it's ok. I hate watching a vlog and feeling like I've missed something.
Ive been a viewer for years and don’t normally comment but yes since ellie has had her miscarriage she is totally different on youtube Like its an inconvenious to her now and i understand its a very very upsetting when i miscarriage happens but somethings just off and doesn’t feel the same anymore i try to watch every day but have no interest at times cause its just different.
Wendy Betts yes! I've totally been thinking and feeling the same way too! I love Ellie and Jared and would watch them every day since subscribing a year ago, but lately I just don't feel connected to them. I feel like we are out of the loop on some big secret half the time. I feel like I'm back I'm highschool trying to get in with the cool crowd but always outta touch 😂😉
you said it my friend. I’ve been watching since before Jackson and the connection and sincerity is not there anymore. I dont even finish most of the vlogs anymore
I honestly feel like the vlogs have gotten a lot better over the last month after the miscarriage there was a definite disconnect but I sort of get it, they especially Ellie gets a lot of hate, when they were completely forthcoming and open like when they announced their first pregnancy in May right away they got crucified for it. Seems their damned if they do and damned if they don’t. I’ve noticed recently a lot more sincerity and just better content over the last month but that’s just me. I couldn’t imagine doing what they’ve done every single day for 4yrs and I could see the videos just being plain better if he has a whole day to edit as far as the projects it seems like they work with other companies and simply aren’t allowed to say what they are until a certain date. That’s just my 2 cents but I understand everyone else’s views as well.
One of my biggest pet peeves is when I schedule something with someone and they arrive late with no word. It’s almost like they don’t appreciate my time and effort. Always respect people’s time you never know when you will lose that opportunity. Hope everyone is having a beautiful day!
Don't stress about posting holiday videos the next day! Just stick to your 2 day behind schedule. It's really not a deal at all, and that way you can just keep on your normal schedule and not stress about it! You have the ability to make your own hours, which is a wonderful gift. Make them how it works best for your family! When my husband had a job that required him to edit late in to the evenings it was awful. Having the evenings together and going to bed together is so wonderful.
My husband works every single holiday, he works until late at night. You guys are so lucky you both can work from home and spend all that time together. It seems kind of silly that you guys are complaining about having to edit. BUT I love you guys and will support you always ❤️
Amanda Thomas I thought it was a universal rule that you leave an empty stall between you and the next person if you can but apparently a lot of people don’t know about it!!
As a solid viewer and lover of your whole family, this makes me sad. It made me sad when Ruby did it, I was devastated when Bonnie did it. And am feeling the same emotions with this news. When delayed vlogs happen, it feels like a disconnect. I realize you guys started this for yourself, and continue to document because you love the memories for your families. But without your audience, you wouldn't have what you do. And as a long time dedicated member of your audience, I️ can't help but feel frustrated. It just doesn't feel the same.
My boyfriend and I don’t go to bed at the same time often because we are on different schedules. Going to bed at the same time is so important, I love that you guys have put yourselves first. I’ll still be here no matter what!
I kind of like having holiday vlogs up a few days later. It extends the holiday by just a few more days so I feel like i get to enjoy the holidays a few more days after it has actually passed. Y'all do what's good for your family and your relationship.
Selfishly I would choose for the vlogs to stay one day behind because it helps us feel more connected, especially on the holiday and birth ones. However when Elle described what it's like for you guys to be apart on holidays and during/after your births, I totally understood better! You MUST do what is best for your family:) P.S. I didn't find you guys (via Calvin's birth vlog) until Calvin was almost one, and I still bawled like a baby and felt an instant connection..... so whenever you put the videos out, they will be amazing!!
You both don't have to go out and work and between the two of you you still have to have delay vlogs. Maybe daily vlogs isn't for you anymore. You will always have your dedicated fans .
I love that you are taking time for yourselves and your upload schedule! You guys seem more happy in the vlogs lately, you guys are so amazing and down to earth!
Good one Jared, for telling Jackson that it isn't good to sneak around to get things. Asking for something is good, sneaking in to have it is not good, it isn't a good trait to foster in little ones. So good on you for not just laughing that away.xx
The 2 day delay doesn't bother me that much. But surely once the delay is in place, Jared will still be editing every night? Like Ellie complaining about Jared having to work on Christmas night, just because he's not editing the vlog from the 25th, he'll still be editing the vlog from he 23rd or whatever? I really don't think Ellie realises how lucky she is. Complaining about Jared having to work at night - forgetting he gets to spend all day every day with his family. Something lots of families do not get because...you know...work commitments. Nobody wants people to get burnt out or exhausted but if that's the case just take some time off. It's Ellie's attitude that bothers me more than the delay.
Maybe for holidays and birthdays, edit them the next morning and just upload slightly later in the day so they still go up the next day but you don't need to stay up late editing and can enjoy the holiday together without working!
I think it is wise for y'all to put your relationships and health before all else, especially since you have the option to do so. I, your viewer, am grateful you share your life story with us, and want to see y'all happy and healthy :)
I totally support your decision. I admire you both for putting your relationship and your family first. I love when you let your boys film. It is adorable...deep heavy breathing and all! ❤
The relationship with your family is the most important thing. Take the time you need. Do what works best for you. I'm a subscriber for life regardless. lol. Nothing but love guys! ♥️
My biggest pet peeve is when im cooking and someone comes in and takes over the cooking.. Im so happy for u guys about the new way of doing vlogs. Family is important and should come first.
I agree. I think it’s a burden and pressure on the whole families. I enjoy them but I think that amount of pressure and feeling beholden to others is not good.
Yes. People are royally screwing their children up because of this stupid vlogging crap. It's so sickening and so beyond sad. This world has completely failed, humans have failed. I hope aliens come take over soon. That is all. Hahahah.
1. My pet peeve is people who think they are better than anybody else! I just want everyone to understand that we are all the same in Gods eyes! 2. I’m totally okay with y’all being a couple of days behind! I think this will help your family be less stressed and it’ll even make it better for Jared to focus on fun editing things for the vlogs instead of just trying to get it up.
I think that posting 2 days later is fine. On one condition, if you do have another baby, you post a PHOTO day-of. We're patient, but not THAT patient 😉💙
I don’t mind videos being a couple days behind! You take care of yourselves! I’d rather see videos days behind then not see any at all. This channel is my absolute favorite!
I have a list of pet peeves! 1. When people don't put their carts away at the supermarket. 2. When people crunch ice in their mouth. 3. When my family puts their dirty close next to the hamper/dirty clothes bag instead of IN it. 4. When people say, " I seen it" instead of " I saw it."
My biggest pet peeve is when Ellie and Jared vlogs are 2 days behind. JUST KIDDING😂😂 You do what you need to do for you and your family. Your true followers will always be here! ❤️
Ellie, I noticed you putting on your makeup and wanted yo give you a little advice. If you keep a spray bottle of isopropyl alcohol and spray your lipstick after you use it, it'll reduce the likelihood of you getting another cold sore next time you use the lipstick. This is coming from someone who also gets cold sores, so no judgement just trying to help.
I understand your 2 days situation. You guys definitely need time with your family and that’s way more important than UA-cam. Love you guys and support your decision!
At the end of the day guys, YOUR marriage, YOUR family, YOUR life is what needs to come first. I’m just grateful you’ll still be here, and that you’re still the awesome family you are.
I never really comment on videos but I just wanted to let you know that I support your decisions. Family should always come first and I think that you guys are doing whats best for your family. We are just grateful to watch your videos when you put them up. Also, I agree with Ellie, spend the holidays and birthdays with and enjoying your family, we will watch the videos, it doesn't matter when they go up.
Holidays are the time to give priority to family and create memories for oneself and the kids. Enjoy your time together and have a beautiful blessed time.
I think birthday vlogs being behind isn't a big deal but the holiday ones are what I look forward to the most. Especially thanksgiving as it's somewhat diffrent from the Canadian one. Watching it on the same day is just extra special and gives you the holiday vibes but if it's like watching the Macy's parade on Sat...it loses its appeal. But you do you, I get it. I`ll still watch since 2014!
I don’t mind it one bit! I really enjoy your vlogs and it really doesn’t matter if they’re one or two days behind. At this moment you guys are the only daily vlogs family I watch, your sincerity, humbleness and been so down to earth it’s what set you guys apart!!
Christmas is a time to be around your loved ones. It's amazing that you still continue to capture holidays and birthdays, but especially with Christmas, so many people will be busy with their own family things, they may not get the chance to watch your new videos straight away. I think that if you guys uploaded 2 days later to give yourselves more time with each other, your fans and viewers will still appreciate your content no matter what. The time and effort and commitment you and your family have given to this channel, the least we could do as followers, is to be patient.
Having the vlogs a few days behind doesn't bother me at all, I'm just grateful for the blessing of being able to follow along with your family's journey! Thank you for sharing!
I’m pregnant and incredibly hormonal, so a lot of things bother me right now. But right in this moment it’s other peoples negativity that drive me bonkers! When they offer their rude insight and comments when it wasn’t warranted or asked for. You guys are amazing! I will always love you guys, regardless of what you change with your channel :) Your family comes first!
I wanted to mention the fact that there are regulations on working hours and holidays for normal jobs, and because you don't have a boss that regulates that, you have to find your way yourselves, so it's totally understandable for you to need time during Christmas etc., I hope people consider this before saying things like "this is your job"
My number one pet peeve is when other people tell me how I'm feeling - grrr, like on the phone they'll say: "Oh you're feeling so much happier than the last time we talked."
yay for being ahead! That makes so much sense! I seriously can't believe that you all have done daily vlogs like this for so long! I love seeing your videos whether it is behind a few days or not!
I think the two days is totally fine around the holidays. Even more it gets so busy for you guys and even us. I always feel like I get so behind with the videos I want to watch on the holidays because of the timing of wanting to be with family. Why do I get to be with my family and you guys do not. I get it. Do what makes you feel happy. Just don’t stop vlogging completely
Recognizing that you needed to make a change for the sake of your marriage and family life is a great step. At the end of the day, you’re still posting videos everyday which in and of itself is huge. Take care of yourselves and happy thanksgiving!!
It doesn't botter me at all. Your health, relationship, friends and family are priorities. I prefer seeing a happy Ellie and Jared, instead of Ellie and Jared who are tired or dealing with personal struggles. I love your videos
Daylight saving: creates longer days in the summer for farmers to work more hours when the weathers good and it's time for harvesting things (it is outdated now though, doesn't really affect too many people anymore)
DO WHAT IS BEST FOR YOU!!! Personally I am SO OK with you keeping all of your videos on the same two day delayed schedule even for holidays and special days. Making yourself happy and taking care of yourselves and you family is the biggest priority.
Jared, I vote for Ellie's idea. Take your Holidays and Birthdays off. We all will be busy with our own lives during holidays anyhow. We will all catch up afterwards. No sweat. Relax. Enjoy your family time.
WELCOME TO THE VLOG! Hope you guys have an awesome day and a great Thanksgiving week in the States. Ellie wants me to make sure you know that she was super annoyed with herself and licking and picking her lips. 😂 We talk about this later too. We're grateful for your understanding with our decision. We're grateful for the flexibility to be able to do these kinds of things and try new things here and there. Again, have an awesome day!
Ellie and Jared I didn’t even notice she was licking her lips😂 you guys are so awesome and you have such a great attitude. Jackson is so nice to Calvin ☺️Great vlog.
Ellie and Jared I hate it when people chew loud or chew with their mouths open
Ellie and Jared I can’t stand when people ask me about what I buy! I went to a wal greens for a pregnancy test and the man asked me so are you excited about this or is this an accident??!? I was like um I’m not telling u that! That’s none of your business! What if I wasn’t even buying the test for me???? Not cool at all.
Ellie y are you soo beautiful😍😍😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My worst pet peeve is when I get out of the shower, and there are no towels :(
My pet peeve is when people leave their shopping cart in the middle of the parking lot. You push it around the store for an hour but you can’t push it a dozen yards from your car to put it up?! Lol makes me crazy.
Something that drives me crazy is everyone getting "offended" by EVERYTHING! Just worry about yourself and live the best life you can.
Stephanie Salonek I take offence to that! 😂😂😂 Sorry!
So, even if you upload two days behind..doesn't Jared still have to edit every night?? I don't think i'm understanding this correctly...some one help explain!
Allie Hanson that’s exactly what I was thinking 🤔
I read someone down below that by being two days behind he can edit during the day like a normal work day instead of editing late at night and posting in the morning. So basically now he is filming during the day, spending the night with Ellie and then editing footage the next morning.
Ohhh that makes sense 😊
Allie Hanson Thanks! I get it now! 😁
Jamie Nelms they also have cooker, cleaner, babysitter and a dogwalker!
Jarred saying he can't hear Ellie was so flipping cute
LOL! = )
Sophiea Garretta agree! They are such a sweet loving couple.
Huge pet peeve: People leaving negative comments on vloggers videos. I follow several families and it seriously makes me nuts to read the icky comments. (this goes for local FB community groups too). I just can't stand negativity in general ...love you guys!
Kisses For Noah I don't know how you read the comments. Once I awhile I read ellie and Jared and I NEVER finish , but still waste 2 hours .Lol
This ☝🏻!!!! I LOATHE when people are like, “You are nothing without us.” Omg are they psycho?? Why do people “care” that much! When in reality, they aren’t “caring” at all!
85michellemybelle I agree with you. It's all about jealousy. Luckily, the vast majority of viewers are not that way.
My biggest pet peeve is I HATE the sound of people chewing. It’s puts an anger in me I didn’t know existed and it can seriously make me cry. I can understand it’s my own problem, and usually I have to leave the room when it happens. It’s really annoying. Lol
You may have misophonia. I have it and what you described above is exactly how I feel about it as well.
Wow i thought i was the only one! Glad to read that some other people feel the same..:)
same! my mom thinks i’m crazy for it
Literally just commented the same thing!! I am okay with gulping or drinking I just can't stand slurping or chewing haha
it’s more annoying when people chew with their mouth open omg i cant stand it
Queston? Why not just edit the video less? like personally i don't care if the video is super fancy looking?
but i also could just be really naive to it all. id watch you even if you were a week behind.
Aww Jared in the shower when he didn’t know you were filming “I’m sorry sweetie i can’t hear you” so sweet!
As a former cashier, I can say no matter what a cashier does, it's wrong. You can mind your own business and people think you are rude.

When people don’t use blinkers when driving in a roundabout!
Tori Rydalch ugh, yes!!!!!
Same!
I never comment. But I have to say this. Ellie's attitude is SOO annoying. It's clearly that she hates vlogging. She wants to be selfish for Jared. Well guess what, we all have to work. Some of us can't be a stay at home mom. So we don't see our children all day like you do!!! Our husbands aren't with us most of the day..

“Sweetie I’m sorry I can’t hear you” I love when you catch moment when one of them doesn’t realize the other is filming. So sweet 💕

KyraWolf 15 Hey we are a New UA-cam couple From Jamaica if u guys don't mind showing us some love by Checking out our Channel and subscribing ❤🇯🇲❤
OMG I loved when Penny put her two front paws on the counter while Jared was doing the paper towel trick! She makes my heart melt!
“Lube for the car” 😂
a pet peeve: when I'm walking across an intersection and the cars waiting to turn right rev their engine at me as if they expect me to run and get out of their way. I am disabled and have a walker.

We agree! = (
Rachel Quinton I work with special needs kids. They are the most lovable humans on the planet. Your job is going to be so rewarding. 💕
Of course I support you in being 2 days behind. As long as I get a daily dose of ellie and jared it doesn't matter when it was filmed.

One of my pet peeve things is when you send a long text message to someone and they respond with “K”... I have a few but that’s one...
I don’t mind that your doing the vlogs a few days behind just please put the date in the beginning of the vlog...
Ave C totally agree!!
K
I love the idea of being two days behind and you guys getting more time together as a married couple and with your family. It is important for you to do what is best for you. If people cant wait a couple days to see a video then they'll have to get over it!
Marriage and family is much more important than videos and entertainment! You do what is best for you guys xx Thank you for sharing your life and allowing us to have a small part!! Love you guys xo
I don't care when the vlog is filmed I just enjoy seeing you guys daily! I have learned so much from you and your family about how me and my husband want to raise our kids and and just enjoying life in general! Thanks for the videos guys! Love you!
"Sweety, I'm sorry, I can't hear you" found that adorable!
Totally understandable especially in the holidays. You need to be together as family. We do love you no matter what ❤️❤️❤️❤️
My biggiest pet peeve is repeating myself especially when I know the person heard me and they say it anyway. Also I love you guys and I'm glad you know family comes first. Happy thanksgiving!

One of my biggest pet peeves is when I schedule something with someone and they arrive late with no word. It’s almost like they don’t appreciate my time and effort. Always respect people’s time you never know when you will lose that opportunity. Hope everyone is having a beautiful day!
Don't stress about posting holiday videos the next day! Just stick to your 2 day behind schedule. It's really not a deal at all, and that way you can just keep on your normal schedule and not stress about it! You have the ability to make your own hours, which is a wonderful gift. Make them how it works best for your family! When my husband had a job that required him to edit late in to the evenings it was awful. Having the evenings together and going to bed together is so wonderful.
My husband works every single holiday, he works until late at night. You guys are so lucky you both can work from home and spend all that time together. It seems kind of silly that you guys are complaining about having to edit. BUT I love you guys and will support you always ❤️
When you are using a public restroom and someone chooses the stall next to you when other stalls are available.
lol odd
Amanda Thomas I thought it was a universal rule that you leave an empty stall between you and the next person if you can but apparently a lot of people don’t know about it!!
Amanda Thomas same goes with when someone parks right next to you when there are plenty of other empty parking spots.
Amanda Thomas People who this in the movie theater need to stop. Empty room and they sit right next to you.
Or people that HAVE to use the treadmill next to you at the gym when they're all open. Annoying.
The more you worry about what people think the less genuine and enjoyable the vlogs are. Just do you! When and how you want to!
You do what you need to do for your family that makes ya'll happy. Happy Thanksgiving. Love to all!!!
As a solid viewer and lover of your whole family, this makes me sad. It made me sad when Ruby did it, I was devastated when Bonnie did it. And am feeling the same emotions with this news. When delayed vlogs happen, it feels like a disconnect. I realize you guys started this for yourself, and continue to document because you love the memories for your families. But without your audience, you wouldn't have what you do. And as a long time dedicated member of your audience, I️ can't help but feel frustrated. It just doesn't feel the same.
My boyfriend and I don’t go to bed at the same time often because we are on different schedules. Going to bed at the same time is so important, I love that you guys have put yourselves first. I’ll still be here no matter what!
I dislike sooo much when people say “ I Seen” instead of “I Saw”.
Omg yes!!
Thank you so much for saying that!!! It is my biggest pet peeve!! So many people use seen and saw incorrectly...makes me crazy!!!
I kind of like having holiday vlogs up a few days later. It extends the holiday by just a few more days so I feel like i get to enjoy the holidays a few more days after it has actually passed. Y'all do what's good for your family and your relationship.
I think this is such a great decision for you and your family!
Honestly, I don’t like watching old videos. I’ve found myself slowly distancing myself from watching videos on this channel and it’s really saddening.
I totally agree with Ellie. This is your marriage, your family, and your life. You don’t owe us anything. Do what works for you guys! Love you guys
Selfishly I would choose for the vlogs to stay one day behind because it helps us feel more connected, especially on the holiday and birth ones. However when Elle described what it's like for you guys to be apart on holidays and during/after your births, I totally understood better! You MUST do what is best for your family:) P.S. I didn't find you guys (via Calvin's birth vlog) until Calvin was almost one, and I still bawled like a baby and felt an instant connection..... so whenever you put the videos out, they will be amazing!!
You both don't have to go out and work and between the two of you you still have to have delay vlogs. Maybe daily vlogs isn't for you anymore. You will always have your dedicated fans .
I love that you are taking time for yourselves and your upload schedule! You guys seem more happy in the vlogs lately, you guys are so amazing and down to earth!
Good one Jared, for telling Jackson that it isn't good to sneak around to get things. Asking for something is good, sneaking in to have it is not good, it isn't a good trait to foster in little ones. So good on you for not just laughing that away.xx
Today is welcome home PENNY anniversary
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY PENNY
The 2 day delay doesn't bother me that much. But surely once the delay is in place, Jared will still be editing every night? Like Ellie complaining about Jared having to work on Christmas night, just because he's not editing the vlog from the 25th, he'll still be editing the vlog from he 23rd or whatever? I really don't think Ellie realises how lucky she is. Complaining about Jared having to work at night - forgetting he gets to spend all day every day with his family. Something lots of families do not get because...you know...work commitments. Nobody wants people to get burnt out or exhausted but if that's the case just take some time off. It's Ellie's attitude that bothers me more than the delay.
He is not going to edit over night, he is doing it during the day with everything else he does, so she can enjoy him, and hee can rest at niight
Maybe for holidays and birthdays, edit them the next morning and just upload slightly later in the day so they still go up the next day but you don't need to stay up late editing and can enjoy the holiday together without working!
You guys have to take care of yourselves and your family first! Love being apart of your lives and thankful you guys share !
I think it is wise for y'all to put your relationships and health before all else, especially since you have the option to do so. I, your viewer, am grateful you share your life story with us, and want to see y'all happy and healthy :)
I totally support your decision. I admire you both for putting your relationship and your family first. I love when you let your boys film. It is adorable...deep heavy breathing and all! ❤
The relationship with your family is the most important thing. Take the time you need. Do what works best for you. I'm a subscriber for life regardless. lol. Nothing but love guys! ♥️
seriously the sweetest way to tell ellie you couldn't hear her jared! and also dying at how cute your boys are together. Love you guys!!
My biggest pet peeve is when im cooking and someone comes in and takes over the cooking.. Im so happy for u guys about the new way of doing vlogs. Family is important and should come first.
Oh, BTW, BIGGEST Pet peeve is when people end their sentences in a preposition!!!! ie "where are you going at" sounds SO ignorant!
Seems like there is a lot of UA-camr burnout lately. Maybe daily vloging isn’t worth it anymore?
I agree. I think it’s a burden and pressure on the whole families. I enjoy them but I think that amount of pressure and feeling beholden to others is not good.
Yes. People are royally screwing their children up because of this stupid vlogging crap. It's so sickening and so beyond sad. This world has completely failed, humans have failed. I hope aliens come take over soon. That is all. Hahahah.
Totally agree. Seems like some vloggers aren't really enjoying it so much which is disappointing for them.
Do not agree with above comment but replying to the first comment made here
I agree. I don't watch much anymore. You can see the viewers going down.
1. My pet peeve is people who think they are better than anybody else! I just want everyone to understand that we are all the same in Gods eyes!
2. I’m totally okay with y’all being a couple of days behind! I think this will help your family be less stressed and it’ll even make it better for Jared to focus on fun editing things for the vlogs instead of just trying to get it up.
I think that posting 2 days later is fine. On one condition, if you do have another baby, you post a PHOTO day-of. We're patient, but not THAT patient 😉💙
I think it is wonderful that you put family first! It is the most important thing!!!
I don’t mind videos being a couple days behind! You take care of yourselves! I’d rather see videos days behind then not see any at all. This channel is my absolute favorite!
I have a list of pet peeves!
1. When people don't put their carts away at the supermarket.
2. When people crunch ice in their mouth.
3. When my family puts their dirty close next to the hamper/dirty clothes bag instead of IN it.
4. When people say, " I seen it" instead of " I saw it."
My biggest pet peeve is when Ellie and Jared vlogs are 2 days behind. JUST KIDDING😂😂 You do what you need to do for you and your family. Your true followers will always be here! ❤️
You are so wise to put family and relationship first!
Your decision is right! There is nothing more important than family
I agree with Ellie! Make your family memories and get your sleep.
I love that being a few days behind or ahead will give you more family time!
Did this Vlog make anyone else dizzy?? 🤣 You guys just do you. Whatever makes you happy!
Ellie, I noticed you putting on your makeup and wanted yo give you a little advice. If you keep a spray bottle of isopropyl alcohol and spray your lipstick after you use it, it'll reduce the likelihood of you getting another cold sore next time you use the lipstick. This is coming from someone who also gets cold sores, so no judgement just trying to help.
We are blessed that you have made us apart of your lives, you do what is best for u. Enjoy our time with u .
I just appreciate every minute you share with us! How much or how often you decide to Vlog will be fine with my family!
I understand your 2 days situation. You guys definitely need time with your family and that’s way more important than UA-cam. Love you guys and support your decision!
I support your decision, guys! Specially about the holidays and birthdays!!! We want to see you happy and heath!
At the end of the day guys, YOUR marriage, YOUR family, YOUR life is what needs to come first. I’m just grateful you’ll still be here, and that you’re still the awesome family you are.
I never really comment on videos but I just wanted to let you know that I support your decisions. Family should always come first and I think that you guys are doing whats best for your family. We are just grateful to watch your videos when you put them up. Also, I agree with Ellie, spend the holidays and birthdays with and enjoying your family, we will watch the videos, it doesn't matter when they go up.
So it sounded like there is hope for more babies! That’s so much more important than whether or not the VLOGS are behind. 😍
Holidays are the time to give priority to family and create memories for oneself and the kids. Enjoy your time together and have a beautiful blessed time.
I think birthday vlogs being behind isn't a big deal but the holiday ones are what I look forward to the most. Especially thanksgiving as it's somewhat diffrent from the Canadian one. Watching it on the same day is just extra special and gives you the holiday vibes but if it's like watching the Macy's parade on Sat...it loses its appeal. But you do you, I get it. I`ll still watch since 2014!
I don’t mind it one bit! I really enjoy your vlogs and it really doesn’t matter if they’re one or two days behind.
At this moment you guys are the only daily vlogs family I watch, your sincerity, humbleness and been so down to earth it’s what set you guys apart!!
I think it's perfect and I'm so glad it's better for your family. Love you guys!
Christmas is a time to be around your loved ones. It's amazing that you still continue to capture holidays and birthdays, but especially with Christmas, so many people will be busy with their own family things, they may not get the chance to watch your new videos straight away. I think that if you guys uploaded 2 days later to give yourselves more time with each other, your fans and viewers will still appreciate your content no matter what. The time and effort and commitment you and your family have given to this channel, the least we could do as followers, is to be patient.
Having the vlogs a few days behind doesn't bother me at all, I'm just grateful for the blessing of being able to follow along with your family's journey! Thank you for sharing!
I’m pregnant and incredibly hormonal, so a lot of things bother me right now. But right in this moment it’s other peoples negativity that drive me bonkers! When they offer their rude insight and comments when it wasn’t warranted or asked for. You guys are amazing! I will always love you guys, regardless of what you change with your channel :) Your family comes first!
I'm so glad you are putting your marriage and family FIRST! I hope you always choose that no matter what it looks like. Bless you!
I wanted to mention the fact that there are regulations on working hours and holidays for normal jobs, and because you don't have a boss that regulates that, you have to find your way yourselves, so it's totally understandable for you to need time during Christmas etc., I hope people consider this before saying things like "this is your job"
My number one pet peeve is when other people tell me how I'm feeling - grrr, like on the phone they'll say: "Oh you're feeling so much happier than the last time we talked."
yay for being ahead! That makes so much sense! I seriously can't believe that you all have done daily vlogs like this for so long! I love seeing your videos whether it is behind a few days or not!
I think the two days is totally fine around the holidays. Even more it gets so busy for you guys and even us. I always feel like I get so behind with the videos I want to watch on the holidays because of the timing of wanting to be with family. Why do I get to be with my family and you guys do not. I get it. Do what makes you feel happy. Just don’t stop vlogging completely
You guys do you!! Dont worry bout pleasing everybody else! Love your family and vlogs!
I loved the vlog style today. It felt very relaxed and just bringing us along. I loved it...reminded me of a few years ago.
Recognizing that you needed to make a change for the sake of your marriage and family life is a great step. At the end of the day, you’re still posting videos everyday which in and of itself is huge. Take care of yourselves and happy thanksgiving!!
It doesn't botter me at all. Your health, relationship, friends and family are priorities. I prefer seeing a happy Ellie and Jared, instead of Ellie and Jared who are tired or dealing with personal struggles. I love your videos
Daylight saving: creates longer days in the summer for farmers to work more hours when the weathers good and it's time for harvesting things (it is outdated now though, doesn't really affect too many people anymore)
DO WHAT IS BEST FOR YOU!!! Personally I am SO OK with you keeping all of your videos on the same two day delayed schedule even for holidays and special days. Making yourself happy and taking care of yourselves and you family is the biggest priority.
to quote Jared from the vlog the other day..... "you do you boo!!"
I’m not even sure how people know what day it was or why it matters. I just enjoy watching the videos 🤷🏼♀️
Jared, I vote for Ellie's idea. Take your Holidays and Birthdays off. We all will be busy with our own lives during holidays anyhow. We will all catch up afterwards. No sweat. Relax. Enjoy your family time.
As long as you guys are fine and healthy, it's ok for us! just don't want to stop watching your adventures. Please, never stop! xoxo
Whatever is best for you and your family! And whatever makes you happy is just fine with me!
Stick two days behind for the holidays. you guys need that and we will see it when it is up and it will feel like Christmas all over again 😀
I totally support your decision. Always do whats best for you and your family first.
