    You said it lovely! Have that big family, I don’t know why people care or make comments when others have lots of children or no children. Is it their life???
    Also, I love that you have the headphones on to re-center yourself while the kids play. Such a great idea!
    Thank you for uploading and your hard work in doing so ❤

    People need to mind their own business when it come to how big or how small you and your partner want your family to be. That goes for all family members as well. If they didn't have it in them or struggled or if it was more of burden to them to raise and really value what it takes to be a mom or a dad, then their opinion really doesn't matter. It's a blessing, Turley, to be gifted the chance to me a mom. Its not always easy but always worth it❤

    You have plenty of time to have another child! Don't worry about the phases they're all in, etc. Just have it when you are fully ready. When that happens your new baby will fit into your family just as they were supposed to 🩷

    I totally hear you on the timing of having another kid. We had our first two 18 months apart and have waited to have the third for 3 years due to my trauma from hyperemesis in my second pregnancy. Really wish I’d been able to get through that sooner though as I’m worried about a potentially 4 year age gap between number 2 and 3 now. Not the end of the world, we are so blessed with the kids we have but I just know it would have been great to have them close together and also not be completely detached from the baby stage before having number 3 ❤️❤️ good luck on making the decision, you’re such a natural mother. I’m probably 10 years older than you but I look up to you and your parenting style so much. Love from New Zealand xx

    I had my daughter 13 years ago and now have a 6 month old son .. Major age gap yes but omg watching them together absolutely melts my heart.
    So regardless of when you decide to have another baby those boys will love that little one so much and they will fit perfectly with your family ✨💕
    Love your videos gorgeous

    Praying everything works out and you will qualify for the bed 🙏
    And I'm right there with you. I want #4 so bad. I'm blessed with 3 beautiful children and I do feel that society puts judgement on others for having large families. Unfortunately I have received this from family and it's just not ok to say these things especially when it is such a personal decision. It's hurtful.
    You are totally right you won't have regrets on the size of your family but you'll see the legacy you have created ❤️

    Girl, my kitchen is a DISASTER rn, and I 100% understand what you mean about being unmotivated by your space not being functional, or your aesthetic or whatever! I HATE my kitchen, and I used to LOVE to cook and be in the kitchen. It's falling apart and is in such a dysfunctional layout. It's impossible to enjoy! 😢

    Have as many kids as you can! They are beautiful and make life so much fuller. I have 3 and my daughter is now 9 months and honestly bitter sweet about her being the last. Sadly I cant have more but if you feel like your not done yet then try for more! Your an amazing mom! ❤

  • @ADG247
    @ADG247 5 місяців тому +2

    I don’t think as women we ever feel fully done. I think we probably all think “what if” and how would the family look with another sibling. I have two boys and work full time and my husband really want a third. However I feel totally burn out already with the mental charge or both kids and work. I just want to be a good mother. I think it really comes down to how much energy you have to take care of those children on your own. From your videos it looks quite intense already. Good luck ❤

      @@MadelieneVanMarter Yes that makes it hard but you can buy a roll of removable vinyl to cover your green tops, a lot of renters do it. If you can't tell I've watched too many design channels lol. I love your content so much it reminds me of the fun and love of bringing up my own children and still trying to be me at the same time. All grown up now but happy memories.

    I have 4 kids and decided to go for a 5th. I’m never going to regret having another child but I will always wish I did if I ignore that feeling. Don’t mind other people if they’re negative. People always have something to say so just do what makes you happy ❤ I agree what you said about your kitchen.. I rent too and can’t stand the way it looks but can’t change it. So chaotic and even if you clean it still looks messy and ugly. Your environment absolutely affects so much and yeah you can be grateful for at least having a house and all that but you’re absolutely allowed to say I don’t like this and want to work toward something that’s more my vibe. I make Pinterest boards of the house I want one day and ignore my ugly kitchen for now 🙃

    Maybe you can ask the landlord if you can paint it and give the color swatches to show them. It's really only going to benefit them if you pick neutral colour's.
