Just so you know, you haven’t “changed “, you’ve grown…It’s been a pleasure to watch! Thanks for sharing your life with us 💗
Couldn’t have said it better!
Love this! Amen
i think growth is change so same difference
Yes. I’m growing with her & I am 40!!!! ❤️ We never stop growing.
This!!!! 100%!!!
I’m 46, still 16 in my brain. Raised 3 kids and don’t know how I ever was even given the responsibility because I still don’t feel adulty enough.
54 and I feel the same way.
i’m 21 and feel the same way, and probably will for the rest of my life lol
I’m 56 and raised 2 who are now 38 and 40 and I swear I can out work both of them!!! I feel better than I did when I was 30!!!!
Hahaha! I’ll be 43 in October and I feel the same way. Cheers, sister! 😂❤️🥂
Almost 40 and these are my sentiments exactly.
Oh my god I saw “selling house” and I thought you were selling this one you’re in now! I was shocked! Good to know it’s not cause it’s a beautiful home you’ve built. Love seeing updates on insta!
I came to check the comments to see what's up!! I was shocked they might be selling their awesome house!
thank you omg thinking about selling the current house made me anxious
Clickbait works!
Omg same!!
I thought the same!! I was like.. not the enchanted forest
I was only 19 when I had my son. I was scared but I just remembered thinking as long as I love him and can provide for us every thing will be ok. Greatest thing that ever happened to me. He’s just been accepted to medical school. God blessed us.
I didn't feel like a grown up until my Mom passed away in 2018, and I was 53. A shitty way to finally feel like an adult. Mom was my person, and when she was alive she was my go to and my rock. I still miss her everyday. I don't feel like I have it all together but I do feel like I got this now.
I found it odd that I mostly wanted nothing to do with other people's children, but I feel so close and happy with my own children.
Kristi, it's so nice to see you happy and breathing easier these days!
i dont think its odd. i feel the same way. I think its because the other kids are too clingy or annoying imo for my comfort like with me.
It blows my mind just how long I’ve been watching you.
Years before you even bought your new house, and then to go through you renovating it and then you getting pregnant and now it just amazes me.
You have helped me so much, and always inspire me!
The word I think you're looking for is COMMUNITY. I will forever be grateful to you for using your platform to share the struggles and the joys of parenting. You've given room and voice to the community of us who need to hear the truth of being a parent. Love you always.
your commitment to the community cats is heartwarming
ahhh i feel you, sib. i’ll be 35 in december and i have absolutely no idea what i’m doing. it’s so comforting to know that none of us really do.
Same here, but I'm 56 🤣😂🤣
@@gategirl66 thanks for your honesty
I remember always looking at my parents growing up as the adultiest adults & I can’t believe my 1 yo daughter will look at us the same way one day. Wild!! It’s not what i thought it was on the other side 😆
Right?! I feel the same way. I keep thinking my daughter will think I’m a cool mom but my husband always said “no kid thinks their own mom is cool” 😔
same!!! I think back to milestones I remember (moving house etc) and realise my parents were like late 20s!! I thought they were just old forever!! Omg it's kinda sad tho that I couldnt appreciate them at that age
The stray kitten update made my day! So glad to hear they’re doing well & you found such a kind neighbor to take over feeding those sweet baby angels!! 💕
My sons first year was hell too. Every year after got better and better. Now he’s 21 and my best friend. He was an awesome teen too. I joke it was him making up for that first year 🤣❤️
The newborn phase was so hard. So many moms tell me that was their favorite phase and I’m like HAVE YOU LOST YOUR MIND! They can’t tell you what is wrong?! It’s so much better when they start to express emotions (tantrums and all).
The tantrums are down right easy in comparison to the all-day grunting my kid used to do when he was an infant. At least with a tantrum I know what's going on and how to proceed!
I love the newborn stage. I've had 6, and with our youngest 3 kids, we had twins when one son was 11 months old for 3 babies in a year. I was nursing one while pregnant with 2, while running 4 older kids around (we took in a foster child too so had an extra), and it was chaotic and exhausting, but loved it. That time is magical IMO. I love babies.
YUP. I hated the newborn phase. Hated it. My daughter is almost a year and a half and I LOVE IT SO MUCH! Toddlerhood is making me want another child, lol, but then my daughter will have one bad night (which is rare for her now) and I start to have newborn flashbacks lol.
the update on deedee and his beebees has me so happy!! i’m so glad your old neighbor is feeding them. ❤️
As someone who is a first time mom with a 6 week old I really needed to hear this!😭😭😭💕
Kristi… as a new mom to a 2 week old, I desperately needed to hear that it gets better. We’re still struggling over here but to know there’s a light at the end of the tunnel is what I needed today. Also, I was here for the mom content before becoming a mom! ❤️
As a grandmother of five, parenthood IS the best, hardest job one can do. But I feel like now, my husband and I are able to really sit back and just enjoy family life. We say we have hit the "sweet spot" in life!! Of course there are always things that cause worry and stress, but having survived those years ourselves, we know that this to shall pass. You and Zack are doing a marvelous job..... and that is one blessed little boy!!💝
I've been wondering what happened to the kitties! I'm so glad they'll be taken care of! You are such a beautiful person, Kristi. And thank goodness your previous neighbors are willing to help them. 💛
I’m dealing with the teenage years right now. It’s the hardest time of my life as a mom. I miss the earlier years so so much . So being reminded of them makes me so happy. Being a parent is so tough because it is a thankless selfless job.
I'm right there with you Chantell. It's the worst 😕 Yep, thinking back to the younger years is my happy place too. Stay strong, you got this. X
Thank you for talking about the “hard” with kids. It’s HARD AF! I’m an attorney, and motherhood is, by far, the most difficult (but rewarding) thing I’ve ever done. My current hard is that my 5-year-old is getting ready to start kindergarten, and I’m terrified about that. He’s more than ready to go to school, but my mama heart is on edge about it.
Shoutout to all the badass mamas out there!
Love ya Kristi! 💜💜
Your honesty about motherhood has been so encouraging to me 🖤 my son is now 14 months old and it just keeps getting better
You don’t even understand how much you have helped me with my motherhood journey. With my postpartum depression, to the slow growth of accepting I’m a mother, through my sons first year, and now, I have come back to your videos for comfort, and to know I’m not alone in my feelings. NO ONE told me how hard motherhood would be, or how challenging it could be some days, and rewarding the next. Thank you for these videos, where you make me feel like I have someone that gets how I’m feeling, and that I’m not nuts. Thank you so much!
I'm currently in the first year of motherhood and really struggling, so hearing that there's a light at the end of the newborn stage gives me that hope. Thank you for sharing your experiences 😊
My son is almost 4 months old now, and I so appreciate the "same" you're providing. It's the hardest thing I've ever done. I can't wait for the future when it becomes easier and more enjoyable!!
I will forever say that being a mom is the best thing and the hardest thing I have ever done. 💙
Ok... anyone else relate to Kristi so much? I scroll through momtok and all the moms are like haha just wait until toddler stage, newborn stage is easy blah blah blah and to me it is unbelievable that anyone could truly think the newborn stage is easier. The newborn stage is rooooouuuuuughhhh. My son is 4 now and every gets better
I could not agree more! Having another baby this Feb and I’m scared to go through that first year again.
The newborn stage is THE #1 reason I'm terrified to have another kid. lol
I'll never forget my cousin's words when I had a new born "first 6 months, survive it. U won't be able to do anything else, just survive" 😭🤣😭🤣😭🤣
So happy to hear about the cats! 😍 thanks for caring for them so well ❤️❤️❤️
Keep talking about the hard parts. You make it real and I appreciate that. It only gets harder as they get older so I’m VERY excited to hear you then. 😂 I remember when I thought toddlers were hard and then they became teenagers… I went through what you went through and you will be okay even if it gets more difficult. You’re amazing and you’re doing a great job as a mom, Kristi!!
It’s so nice seeing you in such a good place! I know you struggled for awhile for many reasons, but you seem happier and more content now than you ever have. I know I, and the rest of your community, am SO happy for you 💗
Raw Beauty…. You know we lurve you… I don’t care what you do , it’s always a pleasure to watch!
HAHAHAH as a teenager I had come to realize (while observing an “adult conversation” among a GROUP of adults) that they are still basically teenagers in a grown adult’s body. We’re all winging it from start to end, we just get slightly better at it as we go along.
I'm beyond thrilled for you, look at you living your best life!! "Complain" - when you need to, and share you joys too.
My son is the same age as yours and thank you for all those words!! I so feel you! That first year was so hard, and we just talked about it with my partner and he had no clue how I felt! My baby was the kind that didn't like to lay on hard surfaces, no crib, no stroller, no changing table, he was either in my/our hands or in a carrier on us and I felt so overwhelmed, so deprived of my own self, especially after my partner went back to work and we were alone. He is now super cute, but it's still hard many times!
I love hearing the excitement in your voice on how much you’re enjoying motherhood. I do not have kids of my own and I definitely miss the baby years of my nephews and nieces. My youngest nephew started high school this week. Enjoy these years because time goes by fast. Love your videos!
I would love to se the murals you painted! They are so beautiful. What I saw! What an awesome fur baby momma you are!
Love you for the cat updates. Good luck with the house.
I actually feel like I've grown with you in your journey, your sense of humor, your life. Your content changed with that growth and that's why I still look forward to your videos! Because it's natural, and I love it so much ❤️
I’m really enjoying watching you grow through motherhood! I’m 53 and if it weren’t for physical ailments I’d “feel” 30ish. Your son is a reflection of you and your husband, his personality develops from what he watches and learns from you and Zach. Of course he’d turn into a awesome human, just like his parents! Appreciate you! ( my 3 year old grandson loves to tell me how much he missed me when I see him, melts my heart everytime!)
One of the reasons I love you is for your pure honesty! Of course, being a mother is hard! And I think more people need to be honest on both sides. From mothers’ side and the others’ who listen. Mothers, most of the times, are pressured to be happy, say only good things about their child, about being a mother, and even about dealing with previous/current mental challenges. You never come off as negative or complaining. I love how you are💖!!
You and Sam sharing the real and raw honesty of pregnancy/motherhood has been so amazing. Nobody ever told me about the horrors of postpartum, the “hard” days and everything in between. For the longest I just felt like a terrible mom, bad wife, lost soul. It really does make a difference to hear and see that even when it’s storming, the sun is still there.
My sister is in the first year with her first and she has mentioned this before, like "why didnt you people warn me?!" And in all honesty I didn't want to ruin the idea that she had/has in her head of what parenting would/will be like. It's such a different journey for everyone and I'm already a Debbie downer so telling her you will most likely lose your mind at least a few times a week (or day) is a "normal" thing. I have a 5 and 3 year old and i can go from "I'm gonna lose my shit!", to gently stroking their little forehead while they fall asleep and crying bc it's all going by too fast. We are in our second week of Kindergarten and it's WAY more of an adjustment than i thought it would be. She cries at naptime bc she "misses me so bad" 😢
@@caitlindelk2146 Awww precious baby! I couldn’t ever drop my son off at preschool. The one time I did, he looked at me and said “mommy I’m scared”. That was it. Scooped him up and we went home! Told them I couldn’t work that day. My husband has taken him to school everyday since… lol!
But that first year is something else. Everything is new and scary, you’re both getting to know each other and trying to communicate. Not to mention, you have a whole new body to adjust to, raging hormones that make you feel wild and the sheer exhaustion of those first few months. I wouldn’t change anything, it’s been the best thing ever! But I would have appreciated some insight 😆
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who still feels like a kid and am waiting to feel like an adult. Love your honesty about parenthood, and love hearing how sweet your boy is ♥️
Omg I have been living my whole adult life feeling exactly the same way…I thought I was the only one that felt like that
Yay, you’re through the hardest part. There will be other stresses, my oldest is a whole grown ass adult, and I still worry sometimes. But newborn is the hardest, it’s the lack of sleep, the complete life changes. I remember being horrified that these hospital staff were letting me take home this helpless baby! Like, hello, have you met me?! Can’t wait to be a grandmother one day 🥰💜
I love hearing you talk about all the fun things your son is doing because my son is 6 months younger I believe and it just reminds me of things to look forward too, like him saying I love you. I also really appreciate how honest you are about your mental health, I've been really struggling and you really motivated me to get the help that I need.
You are literally the only youtuber that i just chill and watch. Its like we are just friends and you are catching me up with your life. Please do not ever stop making content. I need this chill time!!!
I’m so proud and happy for you that you’ve come through the hard part and now get to enjoy your child’s journey through life. I’m 64 now, and retired, and my two boys are grown, but I vividly remember the hard times-trouble conceiving, the kids medical stuff that’s scary, the teenage years, lawd those were bad-but the stuff that was good was SO good! Like you said, the point where they’re conversing with you is so cool! Their little personalities come out. There is a song by Vanessa Williams called “The Sweetest Days” that you should listen to- it’s perfect for so many stages of life. Love you kiddo. ❤️
That’s so nice of you to help the kittys. I love helping animals. It feels wonderful. Absolutely wonderful. Bless you Kristy l!
Love you videos girl! I am a single mama of my 5 year old daughter and I have custody of my 3 year old niece and some days are soooo difficult!!! It’s nice to here some “same” everyone once in a while! Thanks! ❤️
Hearing about Mimi is so heartwarming. my husband and I adopted 2 cats recently a kitten and a big fluffy black cat who was feral for the first year of her life and was brought in pregnant, loved cats, didn't like people. Shes slowly warming to my husband (we think because the rescue was predominantly run by woman, she may find him a bit less scary and he gives her ham) and she and the kitten are bffs.
It's so rewarding to watch her gain confidence and twine around hubby's legs knowing how shy she was.
51 here…I mentally still feel in my 20’s lol. Although I think as you get older (at least for me) your tolerance for bs changes lol. Physically it’s a little different. Embrace the journey!
I'm 52 but feel like this too! My bs tolerance has definitely changed. Lol
I'm catching up on your videos from this year and the way that I've cried hearing you talk about your baby boy in this video, i absolutely cried. You can feel the love, and as someone who didn't have a mom, he is the luckiest boy in the world❤️
People love you because you are just the most relatable queen on UA-cam. Just the realest, most down to earth person. Thank you for sharing your light.
I just want to say that I really appreciate your honesty when it comes to parenthood. It's one of the many reasons I've continued to watch you here and on insta. I watched this at 3am while feeding my 6 week old son and you talking about parenthood is exactly what I needed in this moment. Thank you!
It’s so nice that your neighbors are helping out by feeding the cats. My mom has taken in several strays over the years. She has had to build a catio to keep them safe from coyotes. That would be another way to keep them safe at your home if the current arrangement doesn’t work out.
I think the word you were looking for is "solidarity." Lol. And I'm one of the moms in the first year who needed those words 😊 I love hearing every aspect of your motherhood journey!! The happy and the not so easy! Its realistic and while I know not to compare, it still is really nice to celebrate the good with you and know that even with the hard times I'm going through your happy stories are what reminds me that it wont last forever.
This is so lovely and made me tear up (love that time of month)! Sending you all the solidarity as you navigate this season x
@@alexisyates28 aww, thank you very much ❤
It's nice to see a mom who i can relate to. 💖
I don’t know how you do it. You have a toddler & you are making makeup videos.
There was no way I was wearing any makeup until my son was 3yrs old.
I love how you do it all. Please take time for yourself so you don’t burn out.
kristi girl i need a podcast from you, you’re so relatable and i feel like you have so much to say 🥲
Being a parent is so amazing and challenging. Experiencing every emotion during this lifetime journey is being human. Thanks Kristi for sharing all you’ve gone through. It’s wonderful of you to share that it is not only ok but normal to go through more difficult parts. A stage one mom find easy another may find it a hard stage and that’s true of any age. Babies, toddlers, preteens, teenagers, etc🤪 I know I still cause my mom all the emotions today as an adult with kids of my own.
You sometimes ask why we watch these videos. Personally, I love your personality and stories and I’m in a similar place in my life with young toddlers. But even more than any of that, I’m here for the Christie descriptions like “Loviest biscuit making angel” to describe the once-feral cat. 😂❤️
Thank you for the chat on mommyhood. I’m becoming a mother for the first time in November of a little boy. You confirmed what I’ve heard that the first year is terribly hard. Thanks for reminding me it gets extremely rewarding with the cuddling and the “I love yous.”
I don’t think you’re complaining. I think you’re being truthful!! Being a mom is so so hard the first year or so and not enough people talk about the struggles. Love watching you!
Love these chats… feels like sitting down with a good friend 🥰 your insight into motherhood brings me so much ease in this hectic season of my first child’s first year. Thank you.
100% agree what you said about the 1st year of motherhood. Really started to enjoy it after 1 year mark. Now she is 2 and I am in love with her, she is my best friend!
I LOVVVVE that you talk all about the hard it helps and makes me feel so much better
‘I’m somebody’s mom’ this resonated with me ! just had my first baby and I catch myself still acting like a baby with my mom 😂
I always rewatch your videos, but honestly this one hit home. Your videos are timeless, I just adore you and your family. ❤
Yes you. are knocking it out of the park uploading the videos
Thank you I know life is busy
Please never quit making videos your my serotonin 🫣😍 love ya kristi!!
Thank you for updating us on the kitties. I know how much they mean to you. 🥰
I'm 52 with an 11 year old son and I am still growing with him. He just started middle school. First day of school he called me on his lunch just to see HOW I'M DOING. Haha! I said "I love you" when we were done. He said "Back at you Mom"...he didn't want to say it in front of his friends. I laughed and laughed. He tells me enough when he is home. I'm good. So nice to see you growing into motherhood and enjoying it. It's not always sunshine, rainbows and heart emojis. Sometimes it is 🤬🤷♀️😳🙏. You got this!
I always love hearing about yall's garden. My dad has quite the green thumb and a couple of years ago planted a leftover pineapple top. They take a while to grow but he now has over 20 pineapple plants. The grocery store pineapples could never compare to growing your own. They're so juicy and sweet, the best!!
People also told me motherhood was hard, but until you experience it, you have no idea. Now I'm am empty-nester, which starts a whole new level.
"I could of missed the pain, but I'd of had to miss the dance".
Martie🐭
This. ❤
I lost my only child on his last day of school, many years later I still have bad days, still miss him, but am still so so grateful I got to share 17 years with him.
So thankful you share truth about real struggles .
It helps more than you know ❤️
Kristi - you know your audience. Trust your instincts because your message is always on point and you are sharing in an area where not enough people are honest. You are appreciated for your authenticity.
I knew you would get past the hard part of motherhood. I mean, each stage will bring its challenges but overall, the hardest part is over! Communication is everything and once you and your child can establish a basic line of communication, it goes so much smoother. You are such an awesome mom Kristi and I absolutely love your “sit and chat about life while putting on your makeup videos!” Those are my faves! Don’t ever stop doing them!
Love your content. Kitties. Gardening. Momlife. Dreamhouse in the woods. Emotions. Just everything hits home. Thank you for sharing 💚
I take care of a colony as well! It has shrunk from over 11 to just 5 and each of them are now over 7 years old. I love them so much!
I’m so happy for you and your little family. Seeing so many people have kids over the past few years and be more open about what it’s really like, the good and the bad, has honestly made me appreciate moms more and also feel more comfortable if I were ever to have kids. I love watching you talk about the things that you love. Keep being you Kristi, the world needs more people like you 💜
Another video. Yes. I’m so here for it all !!!! I love watching you. So excited to hear about all the updates. Love seeing your makeup looks. Love you. How do you protect the home grown goodies from animals ?
I just turned 40 and it blows my mind. In my mind my mom is still in her mid 40s so when I walk by a mirror and see my mom it freaks me the hell out.
SCAMMER
It is so nice to hear you talk about the good and bad, because I feel like that's most people's experience and the perfect vision of motherhood that a lot of influencers portray makes me feel awful about myself. I also 100% agree that toddlerhood is so much better - it's so much easier when they can communicate!
House (and grounds/garden?) tour pleasseee!!! of your forever home
I loved your comments about aging. I’m 63 and still learning
and feel like I’m a child
just came across your channel and this vid was my first video and ohh my God, I get you! The adulting (when we are blagging it), the motherhood, the chronic pain and hurt days! I know it all too well! stay strong you are inspiring and so real! xx
So glad to see your videos coming up more often. Love watching.
One thing that surprised me about motherhood is like you said, the first year or two are HARD. My first was especially hard with reflux and ear infections and such, but it really does get easier and better every day. I’m sure the teenage years will be rough, but he’s 7 now and some days are hard, but generally he’s so easy and fun to be around. Especially once you don’t need all the “stuff” just to leave the house anymore, it’s amazing.
My second though, was so much easier. Personality wise she’s just laid back and go with the flow. It really highlights how difficult my first was, but it may also be that I’m more experienced so I’m more comfortable…. It’s all so interesting to see how different the experiences can be even within one family.
I love how modest u are cause it shows like no matter how much u want to be a mom and how hard u try that doesn't mean it's not hard.
I love how you still use the IT cosmetic brush from 2018 (?) You use what is great & not “The latest brush” So relatable.
I’m a first time mom and my baby is 8 months today. It has been hell I’m not going to lie, but thank you for your honesty and I’m trying to survive the 1st year. The girl does not sleep and she’s been teething since she was 2 months. There is still not a tooth in site. Pray for me 💜
Thanks for being frank about your experience, it’s really important for others to see. I love how you’re growing and changing your channel in motherhood. The mental health discussion at the end was exactly what I needed.
I’m 41. My kids are 18-14. In my brain I’m still the same kid! But mom comes out and I hear someone else comes out of my mouth haha. I didn’t struggle in the early years, I just held on and went with it. Now years later I can’t believe how quickly it went.
Love you Kristi because you do keep it real! I have never doubted for one minute how much you love your little man, but it is does help when you let other mommies know that they are not alone in the trenches sometimes!❤❤❤
Beautiful 💖 for caring for those little cats . blessing!
When you were talking about not feeling like an adult, I related so hard, I’m in my mid-30s and I just had a moment where I was watching my friends kids and they come running in telling me they need an adult cause someone was too scared to get off the diving board….I remember frantically looking around for an adult when I realized the children were looking at ME 😅😂🤣😂😅 I wanted to whine and be like well don’t look at meeeeee, I still watch Saturday morning cartoons with a bowl of Oops All Berries
I also feel I hit the child lottery 💗
such a cute thing to say btw and it's exactly how I feel too!
I went to play in makeup and it is very fitting that I got out my Pur Foundation and It Brush and then realize there is a new Kristi video!
I needed this. I’m sitting in the hospital finally starting to feel better. Maybe I’m going home tomorrow.
So happy for you, and thank you for your honesty, never seen it as complain just ups and downs of life :-) it feels nice that you talk openly about both
