Naaawww Layla asking 'What is it' with the dining table ☺️ So innocently honest...Sad that she didn't know but cute at the same time. We had my aunt, uncle & cousins (teenagers back at the time) come visit us from the UK. They were shocked we ALL sat together at a big table every meal. We asked where do they eat. They said in their own bedrooms the majority of the time (all different meals) or on the lounge/floor in front of the TV. They loved having meals all together with us. A few weeks after they flew back home they sent us photos.... They bought a 4 seater (very small house) dining table. The photos were of all of them together eating a meal 🥹🇦🇺🇬🇧🇮🇹💖
My mum was born there but moved to Australia back in the 60's, she was 1 of 6 & lived in a 2 bedroom home (my dad was born in Italy & they always ate together as a family). From what my cousins said, they didn't know anyone that ate together as a family because all the families were big but their homes were too small to cater for it during the majority of the year due to the weather. Summer was different because they'd take advantage of the weather & eat together outside ☺️
Evan, my saying is, " Better to be prepared than dead." Good job buying the ladder. I would try it out and run through a mock escape so Layla (and Carlin) aren't freaked out. Make it fun!
I actually loved it all! You all are so real and funny and I love anytime we get to see the big family stuff. Some of us don't have those kinds of get togethers anymore for different reasons and it brings back such good memories. Evan, your rambling is always one of the best parts as well 🤣Thank God you all are feeling better too. Nothing to apologize for the vlog was great! 😁👏
I honestly fell out laughing when Layla said, “What is it?” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Bless! But, seriously, the table and chairs are gorgeous and really warm up your downstairs! ❤
Firefighter wife here…….having window ladders for fire safety is vital. Technically you should have one in each bedroom upstairs. My husband has ran calls where they have lost children due to either smoke detectors not working, sleeping with bedroom doors open as well as not having an escape option from the upstairs bedroom because they are trapped inside, unable to get downstairs. I am not trying to scare you but let you know being proactive is so vital. Remember the phrase “Close before you doze” and “stay low and go”. There are videos on UA-cam that firefighters have made that you can watch to see why you should sleep with bedroom doors closed. Also a good idea is a visit to your local fire station so they can go over fire safety. My husband actually has a side business where he goes into peoples homes to show them the best escape route. But that is great that you guys got a window ladder! Pray we all never have to use them but good to have them for the just in case.
I thought it was a super fun video. We got to go every where with you. So happy every one is feeling better. Evan dude I sure wish I had your energy. Just happy and smiling all the time. Your a great husband and daddy.
Evan, you do a phenomenal job editing and putting these videos together each week! I have missed Bring up Bates, which is how I found your UA-cam channel… I went back and watched every single video from the beginning! It took a few days but it was worth it! Thank you for being that breath of fresh air! Love your entire family! ❤
I think this was a great vlog Evan! Real life with your beautiful family. Love how you stepped up and helped during this holiday season. Cookies with Layla!! These are memories your making with your daughter captured on film. One day she’ll love looking at this and seeing her daddy’s patience and love he put into making cookies together. Awe never think your rambling. Just telling a story of how much you care about every day happenings. Your a blessed and lovely family. May you and your family have a wonderful Christmas season !!
Evan, one more item that you need to add to your ladder- a baseball bat. This can be used to break out a window/ windows in case of an emergency. I learned that at a fire safety class several years ago. They also told to us keep one in each bedroom so if you are in a hurry, you don’t have to go looking for one. I keep one next to our bed for that reason. Layla will be really curious at first about the bat, but once you explain that it is just for emergencies only, she won’t even remember it is there. Btw, Layla your cookies looked DELICIOUS!!!
Nice to see carlin laughing she looked so sick at the beginning of the video so pleased Travis and Katie are staying with you layla had so much fun unwrapping her presents 🎁 I been with you since the beginning love you guys x
First of all Merry Christmas to the Stewart Family!!! I personally love your vlogs, you are both very cute together and well Evan just makes me smile, lol! It was great to see Katie and Travis, Katie is looking awesome!!! So great to see the family celebrating together. Good to see lots of Bates together having a wonderful time!!! Have a safe and wonderful Merry Christmas to all of you from Calgary, Alberta, Canada!!!
Sorry y'all were sick. Hope everyone feels better. The emergency ladder is a very good idea. We have one also, it was actually required when we were licensed for foster care. Thank God we have never had to use it, but it could save lives if there was ever a fire or any kind of emergency.
This year the flu is more on the rise than COVID has been. I work in Early Childhood and it’s a health hazard just showing up to work every day. My classroom had several kids out with the flu and I caught it too along with other staff members. I’ve been sick since thanksgiving day and started to get better. I went back to work and caught Covid right behind that. Thank God it is a mild case and I am getting better. I’m learning that it doesn’t matter how sick you are, what matters is that you are getting better. You can’t always go by how you feel because that will always change. I hope you and your family get better before Christmas. Love you guys! ❤
I got my exhusband a window ladder for his house when divorced when my daughter was 2. Never had to use it but they had it at both houses that he lived in that had 2nd story bedrooms. Glad you are all healing.
I thought this was good!! I'm glad Carlin was better enough to enjoy all the parties and Katie and Travis's visit!!! Layla is so cute!! And I am glad you finally got a table!!!
Hi from Michigan! I am slightly younger than Carlin's parents. My Grandpa and Dad were firefighters. We had a window ladder. My Dad made us practice fire safety and how to escape a fire. My brothers climbed down the ladder. I refused because I am afraid of heights. I told Dad my fear of fire is bigger than heights so I would clumb down if need be. Layla is young but it is never too soon to teach about fires.
Evan your an awesome,son,brother ,husband,and father! Have a Wonderful, and Blessed Christmaswith family. Love all your videoss, you Crack me up,and bring so much joy.
Hi! Sorry you've been sick! But I do love love love following your Very Sweet family! And always love love love seeing the other Bates family members who I have followed for years! Love you and pray for you, so glad Carlins doing better!
I absolutely love you rambling on Evan lol you are very easy on the eye and I could listen to you talk all day and love your laugh! Carlin is so beautiful too and the little ones are gorgeous xx
I loved the rambling. It’s better than a bunch of b-roll where you look like you have perfect lives and don’t talk much and we never get to know you. So ramble on bc it’s real life and that’s the good stuff.
This video actually made me feel more like a part of your family. I enjoyed this one more than any in a while. You keep on going 👍 And God bless you with better health next year ❤
Gosh it’s so nice to see everybody together and home for the holidays - Loved seeing your parents - I admire them very much - and miss them on tv - What loving parents and great example of Christen love they show - I have always just loved their devotion to family and their devotion to Christ - ❤️- Blessings
Evan talking is hilarious! He is naturally funny and has a talent to make people laugh! You are to use all of the talents in which the Lord gives you and that is what he is doing!🙂
I love you guys. I miss your show, have been watching all the old episodes. Christmas this year is hard emotionally, my husband of 23 1/2 years died very suddenly a year ago and watching how Evan is with Carlin just reminds me of my husband.
That Escape. Ladder, and a Fire Extinguisher, are the best presents to receive, and give. It’s a wonderful way to say I Love You. And that you want them to stick around. ❤️👍🏼❤️
Awww Layla is just so cute at the end and I love to watch everyone grow I was sad when they canceled the Bates family show I watched every episode multiple times and seeing most of y’all on UA-cam I feel like I get to continue to see everyone grow and it’s such a family to look up to y’all have definitely done great.
Sorry y’all have been sick but, happy you are feeling better! Very nice table! Layla is so smart and adorable! Zade is adorable! Love and Prayers Always! Happy you were able to go to your family Christmas Party
I got a Casetify case for Mother's day the following week I was traveling to N.Y. and my phone fell on the hotel bathroom floor. I was scared to pick it up because I have had that happen before. No cracks what so ever !!!!! I was super impressed.
Evan, never stop "rambling"! I loved this video. Carlin should not be upset at us seeing her poorly. We understand and empathise. You are keeping it real which is so important. Show everything so finely polished is not real life. Never change ❤❤❤
glad you got over the pinkeye enough to have your parties. I love how Carlin breaks out in song; I do that too. I could have fun with that......anyway, have fun getting ready for Christmas and all that
It’s always SO GOOD!!! Keep doing just what you do Evan you are talented at filming editing and talking in these Vlogs… you keep it up& going and keep us laughing & so interesting!!
Doesn't matter what your talk about Evan it's always fun watching you all 🤗 Love you guys💞 its precious seeing the whole big family together bless you all 🙏 Merry christmas 🎅🤶 🎄 the best wishes for everyone 💖 💫
Who else enjoys Evan’s ramblings? 😂 🙋🏽♀️
He is a breath of fresh air!!
Love him. Since they stopped the show it’s a way to keep up a little.
His ramblings are funny. I love listening to him. He’s got such a positive happy personality.
Reminds me of my son! They would get along so well.
I love the whole family! Evan’s ramblings are awesome! Merry Christmas 🎄 😊
This is the type of vlogs I love. Never stop “rambling.”
Carlin you looked like a normal person doing life not a dork!
💗🙏🏻🎄
Totally agree
Evan- you a wonderful daddy and hub!! God bless you all!!
Evan has such an awesome sense of humor that I don’t even realize he’s rambling..I’m easily entertained..lol. 😂🤪
Thanks for keeping it REAL Evan.
Ramble or not, we love you Evan. Keep the blogs coming.
We love you because you’re real. Nobody likes fakes so enjoy your lives and thanks for the entertainment.
AMEN!! Make sure you change pillow cases every day! Pink eye is extemely contagious!!!
I’m impressed with Evans baking skills! Those cookies looked delicious.
I thought the exact same thing!
I want the recipes. They looked delicious.
My cookies never look that good.

Very strange - most people brought up in Great Britain eat together as a family, around a table...
My mum was born there but moved to Australia back in the 60's, she was 1 of 6 & lived in a 2 bedroom home (my dad was born in Italy & they always ate together as a family).

Keep being you Evan, it's gotten you this far. Love to your fam and have a blessed holiday season
I love that Zade's belly always finds a way to sneak out lol
I loved hearing Evan. He is so enjoyable. Carlin you are so blessed to have such a wonderful family 😊
I agree!!
I honestly fell out laughing when Layla said, “What is it?” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Bless! But, seriously, the table and chairs are gorgeous and really warm up your downstairs! ❤
The ladder is a fantastic idea! As the kids grow each one can have one to use if necessary. Good job dad!

Oh my goodness, how precious Layla is. She is so smart. Great seeing the Bates Christmas party even if it was a few seconds. Blessings
I sure do miss the entire Bates Family. Just love them and their love for each other.
They are such a great family I miss them on TV
Looks like Kelly Jo found a Siberian Husky pup for Ellie. Yay! It's so cute! Glad you all felt better in time for the party. Merry Christmas!!
It's a shame she got scammed on the first one. People are so rude and unethical anymore.
Yes I was happy to see that as well.
Or is it Warden's dog?
She got 1
YAY!! Good for Ellie!!
Evan, you are such a jewel to your family and your an amazing vlogger! Praying everyone gets well fast!
Wow! Christmas parties, boutique staff dinner, family in town, oh my! I’m glad that you guys were feeling well enough to enjoy lol of it.
Love the “rambling”! It makes us laugh! This was a fun, chilled out video. Thanks for the company while I did laundry, y’all. ❤️ LOVE the table! 😍

I bet Layla will enjoy being in a theater group for kids in a few years. She is creative, outgoing, and cute as a button.
And my grandson is going to drive a garbage truck. He loves everything about it! LOL!!!
Love watching you all.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all.

Evan, never stop "rambling"! I loved this video. Carlin should not be upset at us seeing her poorly. We understand and empathise. You are keeping it real which is so important. Show everything so finely polished is not real life. Never change ❤❤❤
I haven't watched a vlog from you guys that I didn't enjoy. You guys "ramble on" in the sweetest way so "fumble on" Stew Crew !!
I live for Saturdays and your vlog.😊 Evan, I never get tired of hearing you talk. Thank you guys for brightening my day!
