13:00 Shout out to Jesse! I found his channel through you when your old unit rolled down the hill and flipped. I'm really glad i did too. You and him both have absolutely awesome channels!
Well, I’ve fixed up cars for about the same time, and I’ve never seen anyone install a car radio with a chainsaw, but it happened more than once on this channel. I shit you not
You know you are a real OG of this channel when you seen the black craftsman impact driver over the years. I personally noticed the aftermarket batteries and everything you’ve done to keep it running. It must be pretty symbolic to you.
I'm in the same boat, my old crapsman drill has been working for 15 years. I've got some grey noname battery I got off amazon now. The thing won't just die
The drill is impressive, but the tailgate on the dodge that still opens and closes is just amazing! I'm always looking for it in the video to if it's still there. Lol
Andrew never ceases to amaze.you do it all.engineering,estimating ,carpenter ,welder, fabricator, mechanic of everything, designer, architect, machine operator of anything, truck driver, electrician domestic and industrial it’s amazing
you are a newbie. Welcome to the club. Its kinda sad to see the whole concept of the house go away. It was a shipping container castle.... because anyone can get shipping containers, and anyone can find rocks. But He doesn't need that functionality and hes got enough money to stop doing things the cheap way. The whole reason people were using shipping containers was really popular in 05-08 with the last housing bubble. and if you look close enough, you see shipping container homes popping up again. I wonder why? the answer is in the SP case shiller housing index nationwide.
Mine’s still around,at age 93, and yes, still tells me how to do things- however, in many subjects he used to be good in, i have now surpassed him. And I’m the oldest daughter! Soi can,politely but firmly tell him, thanks Dad, I got this.
Honestly, considering the type of work he does I'd say he's outside of the norm with all the safety precautions he takes. He'll do crazy stuff, but in a reasonably safe way.
I know youve heard this 1.43 million times and wont see this but great stuff. Youve been a huge part of me getting out and doing more stuff of the like. Thanks for all you do.
Andrew 1.43 million subscribers.. I been watching your channel for 4 years my friend. your knowledge and work ethic is amazing.. no nonsense sponsorship or paid to say this or that. just straight facts and hard work. I see 3 million subs in no time Andrew, keep up the awesome vids for us all to watch and learn from. god bless you my friend! cody and blue love their dad 100 percent!!
I agree wholeheartedly. I been watching bout 4 years also. A hard working young man he is. Figures problems out and makes it right. I wish youngsters nowadays had his work ethic. And knowledge, and determination.
Andrew, I watched you build your castle during my darkest years. It was always such a joy when a new video popped up. I kinda moved on when the building was done. But today I got this in my feed. It is great to see you working on the castle again. Thanks for your fantastic videos that helped me through tough times!
I have a crazy idea for a video… equipment tour but where you talk about what you do/don’t like about each machine and if you would buy that again or if you would rather have a different model/manufacturer. I really value your opinion and I know if I’m interested I would bet a lot of other guys are too. Thank you for making all of your videos!!!
@@LaLaLucky7777 He's done it a few times but he cycles through so many pieces of equipment that he's not done this for all of them. He's done a video like this for his computer equipment.
Over the last many years, we didn’t think Andrew had a stitch of wood on the property. He was hiding it all in that one container.😳 THIS KID HAS INCREDIBLE SKILLS! All self taught and learning more every day❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🇺🇸
Never ceases to amaze me how … what’s the right word, gratifying, it is to watch good work done and watching the development! Living vicariously through your labor Andrew lol.
Andrew keeping it real. Showing people you can still do great things with a decent tool on the floor. Showing us you can have a castle without turning into a snob.
Andrew and jesse meeting at a home improvement store,(wonder who is gonna get... what?) priceless ! (we learned of jesse thru andrew, and jesse's parents and dumpster dave too)
@@Jon-wg8vr Generally speaking, you want to forget your exes ever existed, same for her. She needs to keep her confused self to her own channel, no hate... just get on down the road. So yeah, the new future Mrs Camarata is a H U G E step up for our boy from that other person.
@@Jon-wg8vr Not required to bring up other people, Andrew's personal relationships are his business, just be satisfied with what Andrew and the boys get into.
Amazing attention to detail when fitting the shuttering for the slab. There are many people out that would have just gone for rectangular pads and covered the extra with gravel. And a big thank you for proving to my students that geometry is important in real life.
As a civil engineer the only thing I'd say is be a little careful how much you vibrate the concrete. Vibrating it too much can cause the aggregate to sink to the bottom. Not that it matters with how overbuilt this appears to be. Nice work Andrew!
I am no engineer, but definitely overuse of the vibrator, not to mention the watery concrete from the first load - far too wet. The excessive vibration is what caused the formwork to collapse - it might have held otherwise.
@@einfelder8262 I probably would have only used the concrete vibrator along the edge so that there would be a really smooth finish along the forms. I guess maybe using it towards the bottom when there was 4 or 5 inches in there might have provided some benefit? Of course it appears to be very much over-engineered so everything should be fine for the next few 100 years...
Definitely over vibrated it. Every wall I’ve had a blowout on was because someone used the vibrator way to long. For not screeding it off and only using a Fresno looks pretty flat
I'm from the old continent, land of the baguette. Sometimes watching you feel like the energy fled us and some of you on the new one inherited it. But still we have some amazing heritage to fix. You gives me a good vibe to tacle house/truck heavy work :) Cheers, one (apprentice-me) fixer to another
Now once again you have shocked me! When I saw you pull out that stinger and sting your concrete, I fell out of the chair I was sitting in! Now that’s what I call “Camaratatized” at its finest! Just outstanding work Andrew, and all the younger generations that you have inspired is unreal! Wow❤
Very nice video....I have no idea how you stay so calm under pressure....it's truly a gift! Great work as always! 300 years from now....your castle will be the last standing
Andrew is so well versed, in all construction, you make it look so simple. But I know the difficulty, in what you do. Keep it up, you do a great job, in everything you take on. I am an avid watcher.
I love and watch every video that Andrew produces. No "concrete expert" here at all; but I work for guys that do a lot of concrete. Two "humble" suggestions to make life easier for a formed slab like this: (1) Right before the pour, spray all insides of the wooden formwork with WD-40. It makes removing the forms much better. Less pull-off of rocks and less "rubbing it out" (IYKYK lol). And, if you do that and your forms are properly constructed, (2) Take a battery sawzall, remove the blade, and vibrate the guard along the outside edges of the forms, lightly (!). Just run it along the forms up and down w/o too much pressure before you bull float and you will see the cream come to the top on the sides. And the vibrations along the entire frame of the form move inward and settle everything. Then tamp it and finish it. Cheers and keep it up!
When my house was built the concreter painted the forms with black oil. I believe this was actually used motor oil. He probably gets it from some mechanic he knows. Way cheaper than WD-40.
Andrew my dude- I have been a subscriber since 2016-17 and the only video that I felt was difficult to watch was the Levi Tribute.. 😢 Great work in providing years and years of quality content and shout out to Jesse Muller! Loved the cameo brother! I love seeing content with the old man helping out.. days like that are priceless! Great work Andrew!
I had just finished watching one of your older videos "Testing out a small rock crusher" when lo and behold this new one showed up. Good timing Andrew! You've been a great inspiration for me and my channel.
Andrew, your content is so interesting and varied that it always keeps me coming back for more. I have watched you for years from very early castle days until now and you never disappoint. Thanks and keep up the great channel.
Andrew have been waiting this addition for a while, and have to tell you I Love the communication system you have to where you can talk to another person working with you and work together. Doing this make things so much more simple. The updaing and bit of repair you did with the Kabota was needed. I remembered when you first laid that footstone by your enterence to your castle 1 shop, yrs ago. A family that builds together stays together! LOVE and so enjoy seeing your dad. He is awesome. See that doesn't fall far from the tree🙂He must be so proud of all that you have accomplished. If I do not see another video of yours BEFORE this Thanksgiving, wish you and your family a very blessed and safe Thanksgiving.
Really it's a miracle we haven't seen Andrew casually buying a tank yet. But maybe he's on a list somewhere, that wouldn't surprise me for some reason, haha
I love watching you use those old Craftsman C3 Tools! I have and use daily the whole set of C3 tools. I have had very few failures over time but have seen Dewalt brand tools die all the time. I dred the day when I can't get batteries anymore!
Andrew I love those back to front concrete mixers you guys have in the States, I haven’t seen them over here in Aus but I’m sure they are about, the drivers has so much more control, great vantage point, it’s like having another set of hands isn’t it. Can’t wait to see what transpires from all this effort, better looking castle than in Europe. Was that Jesse Muller that made the cameo in the warehouse, love that guy and his channel is so neat. Have a great weekend mate
When you order, you should drill a hole at the leading edge of your pad, and pour excess concrete into underground pylons tying the fill into the rock.
When that form busted at the bottom. I was only worried for like a second. But it probably was like an eternity for Andrew while piling up all that dirt and compacting it that quickly. Kudos to Camarata!!
Old man once told me when tying a new slab into an existing one to drill the rebar holes at a downwards angle. Once the rebar is inserted you then bend it down until it’s level. The bend in it will help keep the slabs from pulling apart with ground movement.
I cannot believe that I have been watching you for so long, that Cody is middle aged and you have to help him in the vehicle the same way you used to help Levi. I bet you miss that boy. He was cool! This is going to be the finishing touches. Hope you turn this place into a B&B
@@markbrown6236 yeah lets keep reminding andrew in all the comment sections on all kinds of sads on what he has lost and dodged in the past.. very fruitfull and uplifting.. people mean well(they think)
You’re the Master of time lapse Camarata. You use it perfectly. Can’t wait to see the exterior on the castle. You’re so freaking creative figuring out how to do everything.
Im a building carpenter since 80s. When you set grade on your forms, use grade stakes with a hammer and transit to set your forms on until level. Also, always support both sides of board when using a miter saw
@@charliemartin-k7m What does a display picture (or a lot of videos or subscribers, other things I have seen people judge comments on) have to do with knowledge in a particular field? Do you need a "real" display picture to be a building carpenter?
Liberally when you think the videos don't get any better, you get another 10/10 video like this. So instructional and relaxing at the same time. I have saved it for future reference. ❤❤❤❤
Holy Crap! I didn’t know Andrew C. and Jesse Muller lived so close to each other, and even use the same Lowe’s! Ya’ll definitely should collaborate together 100%!
Andrew, that's the easiest 13-yard concrete pour I've ever seen, nice job. I built a 40 x 60 x 12 building out of insulated concrete forms (styrofoam) and I was vibrating by one corner and it blew out ( they said not to do that in the instructions) had to stop the pour and fix it. Guys don't vibrate too much, it creates a lot of force from the concrete.
You're lucky to have your dad with to do these odd fun things together, especially with the old switcheroo while you/him was spray painting. We had a glimpse of the future Andrew in 50 years! That's for the entertainment Andrew.
He needs to get a little mini me Andrew baking in that new gf oven 😂😂 would be a shame to not pass his gift on to a son or daughter or both. His new gf seems to be pretty resourceful and ready to jump right in when Andrew is doing things, so i could see kids wanting to learn and capable of doing what they can do Would be cool but only time will tell
If I come back in the next life as a piece of plant or heavy machinery, I pick Adrew as my owner. The attention to detail he gives to keeping his fleet in tip top condition is awesome.
That was a boatload of cement to pour by yourself. I thought you would have a significant mess when I heard the wood snap. Good thing Dan and Mrs. W were there to have you a hand.
Gotta love seeing your dad and you working on stuff together. It's been a while. In the last video, it was his muffler. Good stuff. He must be very proud of you. 😊
Haha Jesse!!! I forget you guys are so close. Love watching you work with your dad too. The videos with equipment maintenance are some of the most satisfying for some reason
Bravo! It's hard enough to do the things that you do, solo. What I find even more incredible is being able to figure stuff out as you go, while also thinking about multiple camera angles and drones. Keep up the great work
Cody is turning into an absolute tank--just like Levi was...I miss the old guy, but it's great to see the Lab brotherhood being passed down through Cody and now Blue. Everything's looking great Andrew, keep up the great work.
@@AndrewCamarataThe government has a monopoly, so customers arent going anywhere if they dont like its service. Unlike Twitter, so Musk might get away with it 😅
Only Andrew would show a concept drawing with a tank inside the garage! lol Love the idea and the fact you have solid bedrock a foot below the topsoil is just perfect building. Good to see your dad again, and Cody is looking more and more like Levi each video. Blue is also showing signs of maturing.
I am amazed. It is not easy to hold that much concrete straight and without any blow outs. That really worked. When you put a vibrator to the concrete it has to be really good because it can move just from that. Great job Andrew, very impressive.
Thoroughly enjoy watching you employ so many professional skills in *ALL YOU DO*, Andy! Oh to be *just* 35 years younger! I wish there was UA-cam back when I owned my landscape and lawncare company! Besides just different ways of doing things - the levels of inspiration by watching folks like you create, build and mastercraft these projects is so cool! Even if now, only a spectator! I can't wait to see what you do with your new castle! By the way, I was curious if you were going to bore into that rock wall and create a kickass *SAFE ROOM* for food, weapons, ammo storage + bunks, air filtration and water/waste, etc. What with our current state of affairs, that sounds like it would be a nice plan to have! You certainly live in a great spot for safety's sake!
A man wise beyond his years. His success means he could buy new and have others do the work, but he remembers and respects his audience by not leaving the content that got him here.
That special tool you used on the seat, covered in blue, I used a chain and gear tool like that in late 70's, works good for awhile. You are quite astute on your concrete plans, well done as always Andrew great job. Enjoyed the tutorials.
Such a great video, I watched it twice! Appreciate your calm demeanor, even during the blow out lol. Of course it’s a bummer, but as long as it’s not a loss in the volume of concrete needed to complete it!
@@AndrewCamarata Although you initially describe it as small aesthetic work have actually talked about the expansion of the relatively large building on the left side near the mountain and therefore of structural modification so more complex work than what seems to be at the beginning of the video and let's add that you will probably have to move electrical entrance whose storyteller is inside the enlargement area so you could maybe make a technical explanation video
Andrew the way you calculate your concrete is spot on . Take the average in depth and round it up. I haven’t yet seen the final result but I think you’re right 👍🏾🇦🇺
What an awesome video mate you really know what you are doing many thanks for sharing it with us all and hopefully you and your family and friends are all doing well.
I think I have been watching your videos for nearly 8 years now. I remember you adding the tower on the side and not having anything but a big trampoline on the deck above the workshop area. I look forward to see how this addition to the container castle goes!
I SEEM to have heard in one of the past videos that Andrew is going to become a family? I hope that he brings them around to us.❤️🔥 His kid, whether boy or girl is going to be an amazing amazing youngster❤️🔥🇺🇸

43 YEARS IN CONSTRUCTION AND THAT WAS THE FIST TIME I HAVE SEEN CONCRETE TROWELED FROM A BOOM LIFT. INGENIOUS.
Well, I’ve fixed up cars for about the same time, and I’ve never seen anyone install a car radio with a chainsaw, but it happened more than once on this channel. I shit you not
Not that those things are similar…. The boomlift is a genius move
You know you are a real OG of this channel when you seen the black craftsman impact driver over the years. I personally noticed the aftermarket batteries and everything you’ve done to keep it running. It must be pretty symbolic to you.
I'm in the same boat, my old crapsman drill has been working for 15 years. I've got some grey noname battery I got off amazon now. The thing won't just die
I can't believe it still works
Some times I believe he just uses for the channel but he has to have more around and not just that one
The drill is impressive, but the tailgate on the dodge that still opens and closes is just amazing! I'm always looking for it in the video to if it's still there. Lol
Mine's still running, but I rarely use it. I'm more surprised his still works, haha!

It would be fun to see a collaboration project between Jesse, Andrew and maybe other tubers. Maybe a park or something for kids.
Andrew you make it look so easy! Great digger skill finesse. Cheers Ray (UK)
My heart skipped a beat when the concrete form blew out lol. Wow Cody gonna be 5! Nice video
Nice that the Wheelers could help out with the concrete. Mrs W is one tough lady.
When you order, you should drill a hole at the leading edge of your pad, and pour excess concrete into underground pylons tying the fill into the rock.
@@chrisoakey9841The pad is sitting on bedrock!
@@Gary-pogi no it isnt. he expanded it with the rock from blasting his cliff. he pushed the rock over the side.
Good job from
When that form busted at the bottom. I was only worried for like a second. But it probably was like an eternity for Andrew while piling up all that dirt and compacting it that quickly. Kudos to Camarata!!
Very very cool to see your video and your design plus to see Jessie show up. Awesome bonus
Old man once told me when tying a new slab into an existing one to drill the rebar holes at a downwards angle. Once the rebar is inserted you then bend it down until it’s level. The bend in it will help keep the slabs from pulling apart with ground movement.
I cannot believe that I have been watching you for so long, that Cody is middle aged and you have to help him in the vehicle the same way you used to help Levi. I bet you miss that boy. He was cool! This is going to be the finishing touches. Hope you turn this place into a B&B
I miss Levi, he was a good boy.
@@markbrown6236he was, now he is in Doggie Heaven watching Andrew continue to build his legacy!
@@markbrown6236 yeah lets keep reminding andrew in all the comment sections on all kinds of sads on what he has lost and dodged in the past..
very fruitfull and uplifting..
people mean well(they think)
You’re the Master of time lapse Camarata. You use it perfectly. Can’t wait to see the exterior on the castle. You’re so freaking creative figuring out how to do everything.
Love your turret plans and hiding the fronts of the containers, it will look great!
Cameo by the Great Jesse Muller. Andrew helped launch Jesse in the UA-cam world now both make wonderful content. Love it 👍👍
Im a building carpenter since 80s. When you set grade on your forms, use grade stakes with a hammer and transit to set your forms on until level. Also, always support both sides of board when using a miter saw
Why is it always the no real display picture arm chair experts saying this?
@@charliemartin-k7m What does a display picture (or a lot of videos or subscribers, other things I have seen people judge comments on) have to do with knowledge in a particular field? Do you need a "real" display picture to be a building carpenter?
Liberally when you think the videos don't get any better, you get another 10/10 video like this. So instructional and relaxing at the same time. I have saved it for future reference. ❤❤❤❤
Andrew, I really like the chainsaw cutting concrete and the blue ratchet thing. I want one of them . Thanks for the great video and best wishes.
@@frankkirby5763 never seen a chain like that...
Yippee! More castle-building videos. Those were always my favorites. Can't wait to see what you do with this project. Your videos are awesome!
Holy Crap!
I didn’t know Andrew C. and Jesse Muller lived so close to each other, and even use the same Lowe’s!
Ya’ll definitely should collaborate together 100%!
@AndrewCamarata
They have if you have been a long time viewer.
They've done stuff together before. Jesse started his channel after working with Andrew I believe.
Andrew, that's the easiest 13-yard concrete pour I've ever seen, nice job. I built a 40 x 60 x 12 building out of insulated concrete forms (styrofoam) and I was vibrating by one corner and it blew out ( they said not to do that in the instructions) had to stop the pour and fix it. Guys don't vibrate too much, it creates a lot of force from the concrete.
If a vibrator is causing a blowout then it wasn't framed correctly in the first place
You're lucky to have your dad with to do these odd fun things together, especially with the old switcheroo while you/him was spray painting. We had a glimpse of the future Andrew in 50 years! That's for the entertainment Andrew.
He needs to get a little mini me Andrew baking in that new gf oven 😂😂 would be a shame to not pass his gift on to a son or daughter or both.
His new gf seems to be pretty resourceful and ready to jump right in when Andrew is doing things, so i could see kids wanting to learn and capable of doing what they can do
Would be cool but only time will tell
30! I think he’s 32 now.
If I come back in the next life as a piece of plant or heavy machinery, I pick Adrew as my owner. The attention to detail he gives to keeping his fleet in tip top condition is awesome.
It's always a great day when Andrew uploads an hour and a half long video
Wow, one of the best channel in Internet, hi from Spain!!!!
Thanks
From the heart 🫶 Thank you 🙏! That was another Camarata movie 🎥 😊🍿. 👉 Thank you 🙏
Update on castle #1 ,what a surprise and castle #2 pending. Life is good. FANTASTIC 👍😎🇫🇷
That was a boatload of cement to pour by yourself. I thought you would have a significant mess when I heard the wood snap. Good thing Dan and Mrs. W were there to have you a hand.
Noticed that too. Good people's
I really liked the opening of this video of yours. With music, it instills the joy of life in people. thank you habibi
Great to see the Pops again
Gotta love seeing your dad and you working on stuff together. It's been a while. In the last video, it was his muffler. Good stuff. He must be very proud of you. 😊
Can't wait to see the finishedchanges on the inside.
OUTSTANDING ANDREW! I've often wondered what it would look like with Barbicans added. And now you're making it happen!
I like the fact that your not a talker but get it done!
Haha Jesse!!! I forget you guys are so close. Love watching you work with your dad too.
The videos with equipment maintenance are some of the most satisfying for some reason
Jesse and this channel are the best 😎
Awesome video Andrew! You're spoiling us with these resent uploads. I can't believe Cody is going to be 5 yrs old.
Nice video Andrew
Bravo! It's hard enough to do the things that you do, solo. What I find even more incredible is being able to figure stuff out as you go, while also thinking about multiple camera angles and drones. Keep up the great work
giving the driver a headset was a good idea
Cody is turning into an absolute tank--just like Levi was...I miss the old guy, but it's great to see the Lab brotherhood being passed down through Cody and now Blue. Everything's looking great Andrew, keep up the great work.
That big ole super slong scared that concrete right in place ..nice 😂
A guy can sleep good at night, thinking about his accomplishments of that day!! A man is born to work.
I nominate Andrew to work with the new government efficiency group with Musk and Ramaswamy. Can I get a second?
Yes, I'll do it. Lets shut down everything.
@@AndrewCamarataThe government has a monopoly, so customers arent going anywhere if they dont like its service. Unlike Twitter, so Musk might get away with it 😅
@@AndrewCamarata yes, let's shut down everything indeed! Back to basics.
Agreed! Start with the EEE Pee A
In the spirit of Marvin! lol
Only Andrew would show a concept drawing with a tank inside the garage! lol Love the idea and the fact you have solid bedrock a foot below the topsoil is just perfect building. Good to see your dad again, and Cody is looking more and more like Levi each video. Blue is also showing signs of maturing.
I'm ready for this one
I am amazed. It is not easy to hold that much concrete straight and without any blow outs. That really worked. When you put a vibrator to the concrete it has to be really good because it can move just from that. Great job Andrew, very impressive.
two hard working men seeing each other at Lowes- Jesse Muller and Andrew Camarata-imagine that
That Kubota excavator has probably seen more action than most construction sites combined-great job keeping it alive! 💪
Andrew check out surplus center for seats and hydro hoses. Way cheap we get them there all the time.
Thoroughly enjoy watching you employ so many professional skills in *ALL YOU DO*, Andy! Oh to be *just* 35 years younger! I wish there was UA-cam back when I owned my landscape and lawncare company! Besides just different ways of doing things - the levels of inspiration by watching folks like you create, build and mastercraft these projects is so cool! Even if now, only a spectator! I can't wait to see what you do with your new castle! By the way, I was curious if you were going to bore into that rock wall and create a kickass *SAFE ROOM* for food, weapons, ammo storage + bunks, air filtration and water/waste, etc. What with our current state of affairs, that sounds like it would be a nice plan to have! You certainly live in a great spot for safety's sake!
A man wise beyond his years. His success means he could buy new and have others do the work, but he remembers and respects his audience by not leaving the content that got him here.
That special tool you used on the seat, covered in blue, I used a chain and gear tool like that in late 70's, works good for awhile. You are quite astute on your concrete plans, well done as always Andrew great job. Enjoyed the tutorials.
Andrew is back….this is the content that got him to 1.4m subscribers. So nice to see.
Such a great video, I watched it twice! Appreciate your calm demeanor, even during the blow out lol. Of course it’s a bummer, but as long as it’s not a loss in the volume of concrete needed to complete it!
@@robertjennings5357 thanks.
@@AndrewCamarata Although you initially describe it as small aesthetic work have actually talked about the expansion of the relatively large building on the left side near the mountain and therefore of structural modification so more complex work than what seems to be at the beginning of the video and let's add that you will probably have to move electrical entrance whose storyteller is inside the enlargement area so you could maybe make a technical explanation video
Andrew the way you calculate your concrete is spot on . Take the average in depth and round it up. I haven’t yet seen the final result but I think you’re right 👍🏾🇦🇺
What an awesome video mate you really know what you are doing many thanks for sharing it with us all and hopefully you and your family and friends are all doing well.
I think I have been watching your videos for nearly 8 years now. I remember you adding the tower on the side and not having anything but a big trampoline on the deck above the workshop area. I look forward to see how this addition to the container castle goes!
I SEEM to have heard in one of the past videos that Andrew is going to become a family? I hope that he brings them around to us.❤️🔥 His kid, whether boy or girl is going to be an amazing amazing youngster❤️🔥🇺🇸
