Not really. I was actually thinking he was using the tape to label the date he replaced the battery since you should replace them once a year. When he used it to mark for hanging my thought was "typical Christopher". Warning: Be careful putting clothing on Rue when she is around other dogs. Clothing blocks natural body language and could cause conflict even between known acquaintances. Do the research.
Yes! All these years trying to drill the holes in the right distance with the help of measuring tape, and I never thought there could be an easier way... 😂
When Jessica showed Rue's candy cane to Luke and he responded "yeah" in his sweetest voice possible, Oh My God!!!! I have already replayed that moment a zillion times. Why he is sooooooooooooooooooooooo sweet?!?!
I was also very afraid of carbon monoxide when I was Parker’s age. I heard a story about it once, and it kinda scarred me. I would ask my parents every night if the car was off in the garage. Mind you, the car has never, ever been left on. I really respect you for helping Parker out with that detector.
You’re thousands of miles away from me, and yet your family life is so similar - kids, pets, and walking around the house going”which bloody fire alarm is bleeping!” Priceless.
Teddy is such a perfect little chunk! Love him and how he gets tossed around siblings and parents haha the most nurtured child ever. He is going to have no trouble making connections and friends
If you are thinking about black, have you thought about using chalkboard paint? So there could be a black color but some fun function as well that could be used for fun or homeschooling. Love your videos btw!!!!!
Great idea! I forgot about this. You can also mix/layer it with magnetic paint too. It's great for using those magnetic word tiles, so they can identify words and then start to use with sentence structuring. Saves your fridge/ freezer from getting scuffed up too!
As a child I was weirdly concerned about quicksand because of some tv shows. So I totally get Parker’s concern about the carbon monoxide (which might even be more likely than getting stuck in quicksand, but idk quicksand is pretty much everywhere 😂)
My daughter wanted a mosquitoes net for her bed after watching shows , around parkers age. We live in Ont Canada. We get some mosquitos but not usually ones that carry disease.
Do not feel bad about not being able to change everything in your house or even make decisions. We have lived in our house for 15 years. My mom *just* got the floors she always wanted and ordered matching appliances for the kitchen. We’re slowly painting rooms. Next (hopefully) is painting cabinets. I’m almost 19, so it’s a fun thing for she and I to do together.
I love the natural wood with the white, especially being a brighter wood color, and the black window frames also would look lovely, I think you are leaning towards kind of a scandinavian, hygge style, very cozy, very bright, natural materials, some small black touches, I think it would fit very well with your family vibe ❤️❤️❤️
Again, I love the natural wood of the shelves. Very simple, also painting the main room white it’s perfect with your windows, lets the light naturally bounce off the walls and is good for all of your eyes, especially Teddy. I think ur house is beautiful.
I lost my dog to cancer almost a year ago so getting to see Rue really makes me smile. She is so cute and you are all giving her such a wonderful home.
I grew up with a labradoodle that looks JUST like Rue. He passed away close to a year ago and we miss him so much. Watching Rue play with her candy cane today reminded me of all the great memories we have playing with our pup and put a big smile on my face! 💕 Thank you for sharing her with us.
Rue reminds me of the poodle from Secret Life of Pets! She's so fancy! 🐩❤️ Also, Parker just nonchalantly holding Teddy whilst on the computer is just the best thing I've seen on UA-cam!! If he chooses to, he will be the best dad in the world! ❤️💯
The way Chris said “what programme are you using?” And continues to talk about Bailey’s playing seriously sounded like those classic Simply Piano ads 😂😂
When one detector starts beeping you should change the batteries in all of them. Most likely they were all changed at the same time before and they will all start to beep over the next few weeks so just do them all at once and save yourself from a middle of the night beeping nightmare.
I watch every video and I actually pray to God that my kids one day will be as caring, loving and kind as the Ballinger family. You guys have done things so right you should have your own parenting series. ❤❤
Jessica, I remember you asking for recipes to make with plantains and I have a couple. I'm from the Caribbean and my mom would always get plantains and slice them about half an inch thick diagonally then roll it in cinnamon and sugar and bake for 10-15 minutes and it's something I always make for my kids and they love it or if we had green/unripe plantains we would cut it in diagonally about 1-inch thick fry for like 2 minutes then smush it a bit till about 1/2 an inch and fry until golden brown and season with salt.
Chris looking for the smoke detector that was going off made me laugh so hard because that was literally me & my dad a few days ago! Hahaha! Love watching you guys so much!
YES A FEATURE WALL!! If you wanted, you could match the wall to the cool green storage unit? It would bring the room together and tie in the colour as well as playing up to more natural colours of the wood? I suggest colour swatching the wall with little testers and having a vote in your family as it is your living room: we did it with our family kitchen :)
Jessica I love the shelves as is but I would definitely consider leaving natural or staining it before paint, you can always paint over stain but not stain over paint! (I mean technically you can use for antique look and misc other things, but not related lol). I love watching your family have been watching since not long before Duncan was born! Also as a skilled trade painter, I HIGHLY recommend getting and using an empty 5 gallon bucket and metal grid with a 9inch roller and a roller pole (or you can literally use a mop or broom handle). From there you will then screw your 9inch roller frame onto your pole/ handle and pour your paint into the empty 5 gallon bucket, inset metal grid with hooks onto bucket, then dip and roll excess onto grid and then to wall. Always roll from floor to ceiling straight up and down for best coverage, you should be able to get the feel once you start dipping and rolling. I hope I'm not over or under explaining too much 🤣
That’s great information regarding the 7-14 month old dog. With cats it’s the first 6 months that can be tough in our experience. They’re like drunk toddlers that can jump on countertops and climb the curtains 🤣
Wow Parker learning about science, experiments and observations,writing down the results and summaries just blown my mind. I was just busy thinking of playing catch at that age.
Totally agree, natural is absolutely beautiful gorgeous. Whatever you decide is Awesome for YOU! Do whatever you want...I just love watching!!!!!! Love watching the Family
I took a break from watching your videos, but am currently on a kick and so happy y'all are doing vlogmas. I honestly think last time I religiously watched the vlogs was when you had half the kids and none of the dog! Your family brings me so much joy, so glad Christopher still does what we learned- they ALWAYS crack me up. Love getting to know Duncan Luke and baby Teddy! Also, I want to pet that pup and give her snuggles so so bad. Much love to the whole fam!!!
Ya know your house is just fine!! Natural wood. Paint etc. if you try to get everything exactly the way you want it by the time the kids grow up I promise you , you’ll ask yourself WHY? If you are happy it’s PERFECT because I guarantee your children will not remember anything but the happy memories you make. When your youngest hits about 13 THATS the time to think about it… nothings going to stay pristine right now and it’s not worth losing sleep over! I love your house. It’s a VERY happy house!!
My pup turned 1 on 9/20 and today is his gotcha day so we’ve officially had him for a year! Watching all the videos from the first week we had him and he was so small is so crazy now!
That was a good point at 25:50 of the range that dogs and cats are given to animal shelters to be rehomed. From about 5 months to 3 years, with 14-18 months being the peak time period that animals are given away :(
studying architect here! the natural wood is gorgeous, and the idea of the black frames will be stunning! contrast is gorgeous in homes especially when there is a lot white. either way a beautiful home for a beautiful family
i think you should take the color of the side table you found and sort of make a theme of that on certain areas 🥰 like the wall you want black, would look lovely as a dark olive green or something! 😊
I really enjoyed Parker’s science experiment. It’s so cool to see them connect the dots and look back at those real life references. How rewarding!! I love vloggmas! I wish it was all year round!! ☺️
I can sympathize with parker, I went through 2 separate phases as a kid where I couldnt fall asleep at night because I was afraid of either a house fire, or my parents dying in the night!
Some dogs really enjoy wearing clothes, like mine really liked wearing them from the start, even though he was certainly confused the first time I put clothes on him when he was a puppy. But similar to a baby, it’s something that you show them to do! I hope that you guys get Rue some cute Christmas gifts :-)
Oh my goodness I am so happy for vlogmiss And I’m so happy you do what we learn today at another videos again. That’s actually one of my favorite parts of your videos.
I got both of my dogs from families with little kids that were overwhelmed with the 5mo old puppy plus kids. Both have turned into great dogs. But it's definitely a really common time for people to get overwhelmed with a puppy. I see it way too often.
You are right about the dog return time,it’s teenage years for the dog, I got my doodle at 9 months old, she was given up to rescue at8 months old, she was a terror, growling, biting and showing teeth, when she was told no,she showed her teeth. I have had 8 dogs in the last 30 years mostly rescue dogs who needed training. Sadly the cute puppy they wanted didn’t train itself. For me it was a blessing because the adoption fees are way less then a new puppy and with calm consistent training I have the perfect dogs! I’m glad you guys got Roo and it’s nice to see how well she’s doing. Sorry for laughing here the sweaters are cute but definitely sizes for a 20 lb dog, I have them for my dogs and the way to measure is from the back of her neck at her collar to just where her back ends and tail starts. You can also lay the sweater on her back , it should be as long as she is to fit properly. Her size would most likely be XXL in the dog sweater and jacket world. She is cute tho, the smaller sweater may cause more scratching and knots in her fur, and hard to get on and off. The candy cane is my girls favourite too! How much does Roo weigh now? My girl is 70lb at 3,she was 60lb at 1.
Yes! She's also entering another "fear" stage very soon. So it's one to be on the lookout for. It's the time to be extremely patient but firm with rules/boundaries/expectations.
I think it just depends on the dog if they like clothes or not! We adopted our little chi mix as an adult (1.5-2 yo) and I don’t think he had been trained or anything but he loves wearing clothes. When I take out one of his sweaters he will run up and start sticking his head in. He has really short fur though so that’s probably a big reason why, he loves being warm and cozy. He doesn’t mind bulky costumes either!
Parker being a multi tasking brother hero with Teddy & Christmas lists with Luke. Man is it just me or has Tessy been super strong since day one? Holding his head up, pushing up, sitting up? I could not hold my babies in my hip until at least 4 months old or they would flop over!
I love the warmth that the natural wood brings! As for the black I feel like it could maybe feel too heavy? I feel like playing off of the natural wood and that green/yellow table underneath the wood could be fun! Like adding accents of colors that would enhance that little corner. It is coming together so beautifully!
I like the natural wood too. I think I like it more than I would if it were painted white. I LOVE white walls more than beige. I think painting the frame would be cool. Just make sure it goes with the furniture and carpeting. Oh it’s so much fun to redecorate isn’t it! It can take me years to perfect a room. I don’t buy decorative items unless I fall in love. It doesn’t matter if something would match, it’s gotta be an item I can’t handle leaving the store without.
Here in Norway, the 1st of december is the national "Change batteries in your fire alarms" day, so just change them all! Also about paints: you can stain the natural wood in a white-ish color that keeps it from becoming yellow! Also black window frames makes the window appear as a painting and it's so cool :D
just wanted to say that I am really enjoying the vlogs lately, every single night I get to watch you guys before bed and it is so nice cause my family lives far. Love you guys, keep smiling!
The way that Parker sits there and holds Teddy whilst helping Luke and entertains Duncan melts my heart.
Lol I was just writing the same thing! 😂
He's a great big brother :)
Same thing! He was so cute!
Feels so bittersweet, still see and remember him as this tiny little brother toddler for Bailey n Jacob.
i love how Duncan is commited to saying "happy new year" everyday. lol he's so cute
is the way that chris mounted that carbon monoxide detector not blowing anyone else’s mind? genius!
Me!
Not really. I was actually thinking he was using the tape to label the date he replaced the battery since you should replace them once a year. When he used it to mark for hanging my thought was "typical Christopher".
Warning: Be careful putting clothing on Rue when she is around other dogs. Clothing blocks natural body language and could cause conflict even between known acquaintances. Do the research.
Yeah boiiii it did!!!! 🤯🌟🙌
Yes! All these years trying to drill the holes in the right distance with the help of measuring tape, and I never thought there could be an easier way... 😂
Me at 31 sitting here with my mind blown that I've been doing things the COMPLICATED way my entire life
Chris' excitement about the dog clothes was just adorable... " But she needs THIS sweater" HAHAHA
Chris: Doesn’t want a dog
Chris: Buys 27 Christmas sweaters for said dog
That’s a dad for ya 😂
27 dresses 😂
Omg Parker sitting on the computer with teddy on his lap IS SOOOO CUTE. What a sophisticated big brother 😆❤️
i was thinking the same thing! adorable.
P
That’s what I thought also and I love how he was helping Luke with his Christmas list I thought that was the cutest thing in the world
Duncan saying "happy 21!" filled me with so much joy omg
When Jessica showed Rue's candy cane to Luke and he responded "yeah" in his sweetest voice possible, Oh My God!!!! I have already replayed that moment a zillion times. Why he is sooooooooooooooooooooooo sweet?!?!
He also said "here Daddy" quite clearly when they were doing Parker's seawall experience.
@@RedRoseSeptember22 yeah!! IKR!!🤩
Luke just brings me so much joy, I love that little dude. He is so sweet and happy and adorable. What a guy.
Parker you gorgeous soul, sitting there looking after your 3 younger brothers. My heart can’t cope ❤️
I was also very afraid of carbon monoxide when I was Parker’s age. I heard a story about it once, and it kinda scarred me. I would ask my parents every night if the car was off in the garage. Mind you, the car has never, ever been left on. I really respect you for helping Parker out with that detector.
You’re thousands of miles away from me, and yet your family life is so similar - kids, pets, and walking around the house going”which bloody fire alarm is bleeping!” Priceless.
I love how they allow the children to observe and do experiments. It helps them grow.
CHRISTOPHER UR TRICK WITH THE TAPE ON THE BACK OF THE CO DETECTOR HAS JUST CHANGED MY LIFE 🤩
Also I’m team natural wood shelves 😂
I say no black but another color window frame may be cool!
I thought everyone knew that trick, I started telling other ppl and then found out that many did not know that.
Teddy is such a perfect little chunk! Love him and how he gets tossed around siblings and parents haha the most nurtured child ever. He is going to have no trouble making connections and friends

I’m impressed that Rue didn’t immediately destroy that candy cane! She was so sweet with it! Rook is a maniac destroyer! He also loves crinkle paper!
As a child I was weirdly concerned about quicksand because of some tv shows. So I totally get Parker’s concern about the carbon monoxide (which might even be more likely than getting stuck in quicksand, but idk quicksand is pretty much everywhere 😂)
My daughter wanted a mosquitoes net for her bed after watching shows , around parkers age. We live in Ont Canada. We get some mosquitos but not usually ones that carry disease.
I have quicksand in my woods and it's nothing like what people say, it's pretty much just wet mud sand. Not quickly sinking at all😅
Do not feel bad about not being able to change everything in your house or even make decisions. We have lived in our house for 15 years. My mom *just* got the floors she always wanted and ordered matching appliances for the kitchen. We’re slowly painting rooms. Next (hopefully) is painting cabinets.

Yeah I was thinking Scandinavian Hygge all the way.
Yes! I was thinking the same thing. Beautiful and clean aesthetic wrapped in a cuddly blanket.
Again, I love the natural wood of the shelves. Very simple, also painting the main room white it’s perfect with your windows, lets the light naturally bounce off the walls and is good for all of your eyes, especially Teddy. I think ur house is beautiful.

I love this family, so much, they're all precious!
Luke's speech improves sooo much ❤️
The way Chris said “what programme are you using?” And continues to talk about Bailey’s playing seriously sounded like those classic Simply Piano ads 😂😂
Rue is absolutely adorable! Love how Christopher bought Rue's Christmas outfits !
When one detector starts beeping you should change the batteries in all of them. Most likely they were all changed at the same time before and they will all start to beep over the next few weeks so just do them all at once and save yourself from a middle of the night beeping nightmare.
I love Christopher using his magic skills when he showed the neverending candy cane toy for Rue LOL.
I love that Rue has an amazing home! Thank you so much for loving her! They all deserve so much love
19:09 Teddy chilling on Parker's tummy 🥺❤️
I just love the "let's see what we learned" part.
I watch every video and I actually pray to God that my kids one day will be as caring, loving and kind as the Ballinger family. You guys have done things so right you should have your own parenting series. ❤❤
Oo I would love if they passed on their parenting knowledge!
@@kathleenbolanos Right?!?!?
a love how parker is siting with teddy on his lap and luke and duncan beside him looking to see what santa will bring fantastic.
Every Ballinger loves Christmas! Rue fits right in.
PARKER WITH TEDDY MELTS MY HEART ALL THE KIDS DO THEY’RE SO GOOD

Yooo what me too
The four youngest boys in their jammies on the couch was too much for my boy mom heart
I am so happy that we’ve been seeing more of Jessica now that it’s Vlogmas!
I discovered and subscribed to you when you did that European trip when Duncan was a baby. He won me over and he is still my favourite Ballinger 🥳😍😻

Parker being a Carbon Monoxide Safety Squad member all the way!
“I went out to the wilderness “ love Parker 😂😂
Watching Rue play with that candy cane toy in her new sweater brought me so much joy:)
HA I am absolutely dying at how Christopher said “wait what” when parker suggested there’d be a next time getting a dog lmao
I took a break from watching your videos, but am currently on a kick and so happy y'all are doing vlogmas.

Rue just fits your entire families vibe to a "T" love that!!
That was a good point at 25:50 of the range that dogs and cats are given to animal shelters to be rehomed. From about 5 months to 3 years, with 14-18 months being the peak time period that animals are given away :(
As a groomer, i love that you love grooming day 😊
I love the calmness of the new paint. 💜
studying architect here! the natural wood is gorgeous, and the idea of the black frames will be stunning! contrast is gorgeous in homes especially when there is a lot white. either way a beautiful home for a beautiful family
i think you should take the color of the side table you found and sort of make a theme of that on certain areas 🥰 like the wall you want black, would look lovely as a dark olive green or something! 😊
Yes it would be so pretty!!
Parker being the best big brother 🥺
I think it’s so sweet that way you do “talk about what we learned today”
I really enjoyed Parker’s science experiment. It’s so cool to see them connect the dots and look back at those real life references. How rewarding!! I love vloggmas! I wish it was all year round!! ☺️
Awwww!!!! Yes this is so informative! Knowing when your doggies terrible two time is so you can use your patience!!!! 🥰🙏❤️🎶💜🎶
Duncan is going to say “happy new year!” Every day of vlogmas 😭. I’m already picturing Teddy going “VLOGMAS!” in the intro next year
I was thinking about Teddy saying it too!
Can't wait to see how the house finally turns out. :) I love this family so much. Wish I had grown up in a family like this.
I can sympathize with parker, I went through 2 separate phases as a kid where I couldnt fall asleep at night because I was afraid of either a house fire, or my parents dying in the night!
I love the natural wood of the shelves, I would seal it somehow, maybe just a beeswax coat & I would add black brackets instead of the white ones.
The whole "finding the beeping" situation really gave Phil Dumphy from Modern Family vibes 😄 I loved this vlog!!
I like having things that are able to change and evolve, also I really love the natural wood
I was thinking the exact same before you even said so - some dark colour for the big window's frame - so yaaaassss gurl do iiit!
I like a good pop of color for the window frame! A nice sage green or light orange or yellow!
Some dogs really enjoy wearing clothes, like mine really liked wearing them from the start, even though he was certainly confused the first time I put clothes on him when he was a puppy. But similar to a baby, it’s something that you show them to do! I hope that you guys get Rue some cute Christmas gifts :-)
Oh my goodness I am so happy for vlogmiss And I’m so happy you do what we learn today at another videos again. That’s actually one of my favorite parts of your videos.
Let's talk about what we learned today got me so excited! Always so funny Chris! Love to all!
I love your vlogmas videos I look forward to seeing your them every year!
I love Rue. She's amazing! Also, I love how your kids love learning. ^_^
I got both of my dogs from families with little kids that were overwhelmed with the 5mo old puppy plus kids. Both have turned into great dogs. But it's definitely a really common time for people to get overwhelmed with a puppy. I see it way too often.
Luke said daddy in this vid and mama in the previous video! So sweet to hear him so clearly!
Yes, black (or deep charcoal grey) window area and shelves!!
You are right about the dog return time,it’s teenage years for the dog, I got my doodle at 9 months old, she was given up to rescue at8 months old, she was a terror, growling, biting and showing teeth, when she was told no,she showed her teeth.

Yes! She's also entering another "fear" stage very soon. So it's one to be on the lookout for. It's the time to be extremely patient but firm with rules/boundaries/expectations.
i think its looking fab! I would incorporate color with whatever curtains you choose. It'll help warm it up and make it feel homey like you want
I think it just depends on the dog if they like clothes or not! We adopted our little chi mix as an adult (1.5-2 yo) and I don’t think he had been trained or anything but he loves wearing clothes. When I take out one of his sweaters he will run up and start sticking his head in. He has really short fur though so that’s probably a big reason why, he loves being warm and cozy.

Rue is such a beautiful fancy little lady love all her Christmas clothes and her giant’ candy cane .
I love that you brought back "what we learned today" out-tro! Merry Christmas!🎄☃️
Gosh, I am enjoying these daily vlogs so much from you guys!!!!
Parker being a multi tasking brother hero with Teddy & Christmas lists with Luke. Man is it just me or has Tessy been super strong since day one? Holding his head up, pushing up, sitting up? I could not hold my babies in my hip until at least 4 months old or they would flop over!
I love the warmth that the natural wood brings! As for the black I feel like it could maybe feel too heavy? I feel like playing off of the natural wood and that green/yellow table underneath the wood could be fun! Like adding accents of colors that would enhance that little corner.

It doesn’t matter if something would match, it’s gotta be an item I can’t handle leaving the store without.
She looks amazing after her cut and she was adorable already. 🥰🥰🥰
I really like the natural look of the wood! Def seal and do what you need to do, but the natural is so pretty!
Thank you for bringing the joy to my rather tough day! I especially loved the "what we learned today" segment. It made me smile :)
Also love Chris being the typical dad, who's spoiling their dog like a child (or more?)
You can always do black trim and then different colored curtains/blinds!
Here in Norway, the 1st of december is the national "Change batteries in your fire alarms" day, so just change them all!
Also about paints: you can stain the natural wood in a white-ish color that keeps it from becoming yellow! Also black window frames makes the window appear as a painting and it's so cool :D
For the window you could go mid-grey as a compromise instead of black or white!
just wanted to say that I am really enjoying the vlogs lately, every single night I get to watch you guys before bed and it is so nice cause my family lives far. Love you guys, keep smiling!
