Gavin’s first year not going back to school, Emmi’s first day of high school, Brock’s first day of middle school, Avia’s last first day of school with her siblings, big day!!! I hope all the kiddos had a good first day back 💘
Awww! I know this sounds weird, but these kids definitely turned out how I thought they would based on their personalities when they were younger! So many sweet, energetic, and just all around good kids under one roof ❤️! Many blessings to anyone who reads this 🙏🏾!
Loved the podcast on Wednesday, really liked hearing more details and how you guys have worked through things :) Been loving the vlogs lately too and all the videos on Avia's channel! Pretty sure I've been watching for 6 or 7 years.
I really appreciated the podcast with Roman. Thank you Shay and Colette for talking about that difficult time and giving us more insight. Would love to hear even more about how you guys were able to work through it.
You know. Im still so shocked when Daxton speaks in full sentences. Ive been watching for so long sometimes I see the little toddler still. Glad they all had a great time on their first day. The podcast was amazing as well !!!
I always felt like you’re part of my family and just live far away and keep posting to update us all on the family. It’s been incredible to see your family grow. The highs the lows are part of life. What a journey you’ve taken us on so far. Can’t wait for more incredible updates from the family.
i’ve been watching you guys since i was in middle school! i haven’t been keeping up for the past few years but to see everyone so grown up is so amazing. i’m 22 and feel like i’ve been apart of the family forever!
This makes me realise how long I've been watching you guys. I've been watching you ever since the beginning- Emmy was a baby (toddler) and Avia was so small!! And now she's a senior 😳💕
Can I just say, I just watched the podcast you and Colette did with Roman and Brittany and I just wanted to say that I grew up watching both channels [Im the same age as Gavin] and I remember being 8 years old and sitting with a cup of chocolate milk and watching the Shaytards Christmas special! you were my childhood and I feel like a lot of us long time viewers felt and still feel apart of the family! When you guys came back and started making videos again I was thrilled! Watching the podcast really clarified a lot and I just wanted to say thank you for being so open with us! I'm sure it was very difficult but you both did amazing! thank you for all of the amazing content over the years, and cheers to many more!
Holy cow, this is my first time watching you guys in years, and the kids have grown up so much!! I don't even remember most of their real names and nicknames, but your oldest daughter is a much more mature version of her charismatic younger self; I can also see the resemblances in all the kids' faces. Happy to see that you guys are doing everything in your power to develop a happy, healthy family
Crazy how much they've grown! 😭 If you wanted to know! (In order of oldest to youngest) Gavin - Sontard Avia - Princesstard Emmi - Babytard Brock - Rocktard Daxton - Brotard I THINK. It's been a while since I've thought about their 'tard' names hahaha. I feel like Gavin's is wrong 😅 But that's what my memory is telling me!
i love u guys so much, i’ve been watching ever since emmi was a baby so basically since u started youtube and i can’t believe how beautiful all ur kids are. ❤️❤️
Glad everyone had a good first day of school. Collette....I'm so excited with you about your bread!! As Mom's we get busy making the other parts of dinner, we forget how fast time goes and next thing you know, burnt bread . I'm whoo hooing with ya!! It looks good!
Can’t believe I’ve been watching you guys since Emmi was just a tiny baby eating a cheese block on the table and Shay scared her 😭😂 time goes by fast I’m not even old but I feel old 😂
Life is seriously crazy. I’ve been watching since about half way after the vlogs started. Shay started this on the last year of being in his 20’s and now in 2024 will be my final year of my 20’s that Dec is when I turn 30. Like this was my dream family, my 1st daughter was even almost named Avia! I love how much the kids have grown! And amazing to see what grades they’re in now! Love you guys!
I thought Avia was a Junior this year, I was off there. Congratulations to Avia on starting her Senior year, and congratulations to Emmi on starting High School! Everyone has grown so fast, I do not know where time has gone.
Wow this vlog is giving me all the feels. I started watching this channel when I was 13 almost 14 and now I’m about to be 25 and 9 months pregnant with my first baby. Time is flying by and I’m just grateful you still keep us updated on your lives!! Happy first day of school! 🥺💗
I've watched your videos for well over 10 years. I've seen both Daxton and Brock when they were born. I remember seeing Avia when she was a little girl telling you over and over while you were blogging, "Wait, daddy, I wanna be on t.v.! I wanna be on t.v." (talking about the vlog). I remember Emmie's famous "if you're happy and you know it smile". You're asking them if they're ready for 3rd grade, middle school, senior year, and freshman year respectively. The truth is that THEY may be ready, but ME? I am not ready for them to be starting their respective first days of school. They're all growing up so fast 😭💙
I think I have been watching you guys since I was about 18 and I'm 28 now, you guys have the most beautiful family. The kids are wonderful, truly amazing family. They have all turned into wonderful people ❤️ I'm so glad to be able to keep watching your life develop. I do not have a family and my boyfriend that I used to watch you guys with recently passed. I hope one day I have something as beautiful to look forward to as your family. Even if I do not, I'm still glad to feel like I've been apart of yours.
ok now it’s my turn! I started watching when it was just Sontard and Sistertard. Then I just watched once in a while but when Babytard and Rocktard came along I was ALL IN! Also just want to let you all know that you inspire me and I’m so excited to see you back ! Also I watched the blog with Roman and Britt and am so proud of your honesty and candid answers. Continue to tread the happy road of destiny! One Day at a Time
My first vlog ever was FACE SINGING so many years ago! My kids and I watched religiously… my doesn’t graduated in June and my youngest just started his senior year! 🥰 I feel like my kids grew up with yours! 🥰
just wow! seeing gavin as an adult off to work is bizarre. i’ve been watching since before brock was born and now i’m almost 30 😂 i’ve grown up with you guys as much as the kids have grown up in front of me!
I graduated back in 2009 so it's been a long time since I had to go back to school after a fun summer of sleeping all morning and doing nothing. But I remember being SO excited for the first day of school that I could never sleep the previous night. Looking back, school seems like a dream because it's such a distant memory. However, I wish I could go back and do so many things different. For one I wouldve taken academics more seriously, gotten good grades and done well on tests/ exams. Second, I would've NOT been so shy. I was so terribly shy throughout my entire school career, mostly from 6th grade to senior year. I wouldve been more confident and social, I missed out on so much because I tended to be anti social. So bottom line, get good grades and make lots of friends! Don't be scared to be yourself! Have fun, speak your mind, and dont be scared what the other kids are going to say or think about you! Tha'ts what I'd tell my adolescent self.
I really enjoyed the podcast you and Collette should do one I really would like to hear more of Collette's wisdom I could learn a lot from her I feel. Thank you for being so open 💓.
I’ve just been watching an old vlog again & saw this upload! I can’t thank you enough for uploading. You always make my day brighter! FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL! 🙌🏻
Watching the podcast video with Roman, made me cry. Cry with happiness that you 2 have come through the outside. Have been watching your channel from the beginning and it killed me to see you guys go through. Especially the video Where you said, where is she? Missing Colette….
I would another podcast from you two. I’ve been treating wtkgts. You guys had a lot of great insights and advice on the Roman Atwood podcast and I would love to hear more from you guys!
Oh my God. Believe it or not, I will be studying in my 3rd year at university and every year on the first day of school, I get ready by singing the same song in the morning. It's like a manifastation and is the best way to start a new school year for me. "First day of school, first day of school. Everybody's cool on the first day of school..🎶🎶"
So crazy to see how fast the kids are growing up I've been watching you since the start so watching you grow as a family is amazing. I wonder If shay still has the Christmas tree still up
I laughed so hard when Shay was rolling that jade roller on his face . We also have a senior our youngest daughter . Our youngest is a 7th grader the baby I prayed so hard for . And our sweet Larissa has already gone back to Oklahoma to start her sophomore year at Oral Roberts University .
Iv graduated but the first day of school song has me jamming rn from the nostalgia man it's crazy 2011 to 2022 I can't even watch the vlogs or music videos without tearing up a Lil bit
Awesome video I really like it lot it was cool and you made awesome video and I subscriber to you and all of your friends channels and you are best UA-cam channels and have a great day at school
It’s crazy to come back and check in and see how big the kids have gotten. In the beginning years my son and I would watch every single vlog. He’s now in Pendleton as a US Marine! 🇺🇸
Good morning everyone happy Saturday morning and I loved your channel and you all amazing Supporter and I loved your back to school vlogs and you all amazing
Collette, I too am notorious for burning the bread, I’ll look and it needs a bit longer, wait a minute, open oven and BURNED! Hope the kids have another great school year. Can’t believe Dayton is in 3rd grade. I started watching when you were preggers with him. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Love from Albuquerque (where shay stopped at McDonalds moving Phillip DeFranco) (yes I watched all previous videos when I discovered you all those years ago)
Loved the podcast with Roman guys I’d made me tear up I was so disappointed with Shay until I heard the podcast. I can see the pain in his eyes. Keep up the fight! Y’all touched on the big house are you guys getting rid of it? Crazy so much time has passed! It seems like yesterday the kids were little babies!
good vid dont miss the first day or any day of school math was my worst subject and bad teacher senior year 4 classes went to bed when ever ditch a few times ...i mean missed the bus and no ride😂 never had homework in highschool
wow look at that long hair, you kids are adult sized and i cry and you all are not mine, but my only son is 30!! but you all are grown and its awesome!! wow i just cant believe it
Good to see Gav. Mexico will be great and may just surprise you. Learn their language well it will help you a lot in the future. 🌎🍉God Bless You and all of Your Family

Omg sameee😱

I still remember the video with the slobbery watermelon 🤣
Glad to see that Dax is adjusting. He's a smart kid. I wish him the best. You are very good parents and he needs you and the team.

Colette is the definition of unconditional love, I love how she simply enjoys the gratification she receives from them ☺️☺️

Grandparents can have an endless summer. :) We're going to Minnesota to spend time with our granddaughters before they start school on Sept 6.
I graduated back in 2009 so it's been a long time since I had to go back to school after a fun summer of sleeping all morning and doing nothing.
