Oliver is here!!!!!!!!! 💙💙💙💙
I was scheduled to be induced Wednesday the 16th at 7:30 am.
I was feeling very discouraged about that as I wanted to approach labor and delivery naturally, he was 10 days late on the 16 and my doctor was worried about the meconium in his system and didn't want me to go past 10 days late.
Well! Tuesday the 15th came and went with no labor but on Wednesday the 16th at 12:30 am I went into labor!
I stayed home during the first phase of labor and arrived at the hospital at 3:00 am dilated to 5 cm.
labor progressed successfully and Ollie was born at 7:59 am completely naturally!
It was everything I wanted it to be!
It was the hardest and indeed the most pain I've ever felt in my life but I would do it all over again in a heart beat!! My husband was amazing support and never left my side.
Ollie was born with perfect health weighing 7 lbs 10 oz and 20.5 inches long.
They released us in the evening the next day on the 17th and this was everyone's first encounter ☺️.
I'm truly the happiest I've ever been and I'm so thankful for everyone's encouragement, support, love, and kindness through my pregnancy! You're all amazing!! 💜💙💗
Everyone is getting along SO well (from a safe distance of course) Ollie doesn't react a bit to the loud noises and sleeps right through lol.
Although Gotcha and Letty have been INCREDIBLE and been relatively on the more quiet side, Gotcha hasn't thrown a tantrum yet! Lol
But thankfully when he does the nursery is on a different level of the house and the sound is dampened enough that it would be easy for Ollie to sleep through. 🙏🏻 😄😉
Anyways I hope you enjoy the video and thank you again from those who supported encouraged and loved on us. I wish I could hug you all! Lol
I will continue to make videos when I can between mothering my newborn and continuing to give the remainder of my love to the animals! ☺️💜
THANKYOU!! 💛💚💙💜💗❤️
Thankyou for watching!!
❗️❗️❗️85% of parrots are either resold, given away, or abandoned within just 2 short years of being purchased.
DO YOUR RESEARCH before adopting a bird. They are a LIFETIME COMMITMENT!
I cannot stress enough how heartbreaking this sad truth is.... Too many people impulse buy parrots because of cute or funny traits they've seen in other birds.
A life stuck in a cage is cruel and so unfair to these magnificent beautiful creatures.
They deserve the absolute best!
If you are interested in a parrot, adopt one because you have the time, money, patience, energy and if you want to save them from a life stuck behind bars, not solely because they are cute or funny or talk etc.
Again parrots are a LIFETIME commitment.
They can live up to 80+ years!! Which means they just might outlive you, and where will they go if something happens to you and one day you don't come home? What will happen to them? Who will love them and care for them? All things to consider....
I've given up many many things to give my two parrots and other animals the best life they can possibly have!
It is an honor to share our lives with these amazing creatures, remember that....
Please do your research before adopting.
After all, we have our friends, our jobs, and our hobbies.
They only have us💗❗️❗️
Congratulations on the baby. Your probably going to wake up in the middle of the night now and go see why the baby is crying only to find out it's gotcha HA HA
+Moby Dave No, Letty!
Moby Dave hah
Moby Dave 410th like
Moby Dave yaaaaaas
But they usually don’t scream during the night
I love Oliver all wrapped up in the blanket.

Do you think they know? They seem to be very quiet and respectful...
Animals know what babies are! They're smarter than you think. Pitbulls especially are very tender and protective with young children. Many pitbulls actually used to be used as nanny dogs, dogs that guarded babies and children while their parents were out. They have an extremely high tolerance and are quite sweet.
I'm sure the birds know what a baby is, but they aren't mammals and express parenthood a bit differently than a dog or a human would (dogs and humans evolved with each other, so you'll find they parent quite similarly!) You might notice though that the birds watch Oliver intently. That's because birds usually watch over their young to make sure they're safe.
So, yes! The animals know what a baby is. They'll likely be very good family members.
oh yes most definitly
Earth Tooth My pit mix used to sit under the baby swing and not let her boy out of her sight. She is still in love and he is almost 3. He cemented the bond by feeding her behind my back when he was learning to use a spoon. He would spoon yogurt into her mouth.
Twinkie so cute! My German shepherd did the same thing when my youngest was born! If she started crying, my dog would come & grab my hand gently in her mouth & lead me to the baby💖💖
yup thats german shepherds for ya!
There is so much love overflowing in this video
Savindi Hewage how can you feel love through a screen..? I like to know how to do that so please enlighten me
Jolene Uranga
Empathy.......
Dafuq kind of question is that
Savindi Hewage Totally agree! Makes me melt to watch them 💜💕💜💞💜
that's the quietest I've ever seen gotcha,and I see all his videos when possible I've spent countless hours watching this cool families videos.
I started watching these videos 3 days ago. Thank you for sharing the love, and the beauty of that love with others who can only dream & hope to have one day. You are so kind and careing ( not to mention) cute as can be!!! 😊
Congratulations on the new addition to the family. The dogs are thinking "yep, in about 8 months Imma park my furry butt under this one's high chair and live like a king on dropped noms."
Oliver has many of his dads features, he's beautiful. I bet he's gonna grow up to be a stunner, watch out world.
How sweet. They were so gentle & quiet.
Wonder if your birds are going to start mimicking your baby... XD
Alysha McCarty I think in one video about a wasp in the house, Gotcha was crying like a baby
княуѕαlιѕ I would be, too!
Alysha McCarty or the other way around....baby's first words.... "I gotchu"!
He mimics TV gangsters and crazy people ! Some of the stuff this bird says gets me thru the day !
😂😂😂😂😂😂
It's so sweet to see how gentle they are with him, Gotcha is quiet like he knows he's sleeping and that he's a baby. Thank you for sharing this with us!
I love when animals figure out that a baby is a member of their family. We slowly introduced our dogs to the babies in the family. The dogs came to be protective of the kids and when the kids began to crawl and then walk, the dogs stayed close by as if to watch over them. It's great for the kids too because they learn empathy.
Gotcha is clearly in AWE and amazed. You can tell he's imprinting for sounds that give the new arrival a name. SOoooo holy and sweet 😇
They were trying not to scare him with their birb noises. That's so sweet!
That kids gonna have a great immune system
Emma Lucas
*wheeze*
lol, I was thinking the same!
How so?
M. Soutelo With all those animals, I'm betting...
Kaelah Smith: I'm genuinely not sure if that's sarcasm or not, because I don't know whether growing up as a child living with a multitude of domesticated animals is beneficial to our immune systems. If only we could infuse tone of voice into what we type...
Honestly, shout out to you for keeping your parrots AND having a baby! I know that people get married, or give up their parrots to raise a child. Of course I know you wouldn't give Gotcha or Letty up for any reason.
But it must have (and still is) hard to have a baby and parrots.
I've known about Oliver from your videos, but hadn't seen this one.
Congratulations!!!
Oliver is super cute, even with his tired wrinkled up resting mad face in this video! Haha!
I got â cacatoo called mavrick
MyBeautifulMuffins they have 2 dogs 2 parrots and a baby
MyBeautifulMuffins That happend with me 😢
MyBeautifulMuffins annnnddd even a dog
How could anyone give up a parrot to have a child. They're the same thing. I don't get that at all. You take a parrot into your family and you've effectively taken in a permanent 3yr old child with feathers. Who will prob out live you and needs a place in your will.
congratulations little Oliver! God picked a most awesome family for you. may your life be blessed by all the love that surrounds you!
Born naturally? You are a warrior, haha!!! Beautiful Oliver!
ABCDEFG T that means with no medicine of any kind, and no c-section
Again, most babies are born naturally
No IVFs? i am guessing.
You two must have a huge heart full of love for not only your baby but your furry and feathered babies too. I wish you all the happiness in the world for it would be a happier place if there were more families like yours. All the Best.
Congratulations my friends also here on youtube , amazing such a cute little boy . Its so cute to see how Gotcha watch to Oliver ... wonderfull . Wish all the best with this little wonder , Love from Harley and us 💙💗💙💗
Beautiful baby, beautiful bird, beautiful family, and beautiful you with so much love in your heart. Bless you!
You two will be the most amazing parents. You both have a unique ability to love unselfishly and deeply while respecting the life of another.
Congratulations on another little happy place in your lives! He's gorgeous...
Biggest congratulations on the birth of your precious son Oliver He will be blessed to be raised by parents who love and care for animals 👍🌸
oh gosh u have such a wonderful family....i am so impressed at how beautiful ur house is and how happy ALL ur pets are..plus now an amazing baby wow !
Giselle B, me too! 2 birds,2dogs, a baby and a husband!!! Her house is very clean, she must get up at dawn and go to sleep at midnight! Such a sweet loving young woman! I enjoy all the videos!😊👋🏼
Ollie is PERFECT!!! im so glad everything went the way you wanted and that everyone is getting along just fine! congratulations! letty was adorable wanting to get closer. of course she probably shouldnt get too close but she looked so interested! and gotcha was just like "mom, pick me up mom. mom! what is that? its wiggling!"
I love how quiet they are, especially Gotcha and Letty! I'm sure they know, parrots are extremely intelligent. :)
he is absolutely precious, I know you'll make a wonderful mother to Oliver, Gotcha and Letty. congrats on your new addition
I do believe that Gotcha was completely aware of Oliver and the newness of a tiny human! I see a certain thoughtfulness in Gotcha's expression. A certain curiosity.
I'm commenting many years later, but it's heartwarming to see such a beautiful family, including Gotcha.
Be well!
hey im overwhelmed by what caring awesome people you guys are. oliver has some awesome parents. he is beautiful. the respect you have for your animals is what has won me over i wish more people were like u thanks
Congratulations! Oliver's beautiful. Much love, happiness, and health to Oliver all his days!
Congratulations to your whole family! What a fortunate child Oliver is to come home to a house filled with so much love.
Awwww, Ollie is beautiful! New babies are exhausting, but I promise it will get easier! Don't be afraid to let the little things slide (like UA-cam!). These early moments go by so quickly. And congratulations on your birth experience!
Laynie Fingers w
Wow!
That's a lucky kid having a family like this!! BRAVO!!!
what a well balanced home you guys have made I LOVE it! 🤗
Oliver is one lucky boy. He's going to grow up in a family with so much love and so many friends at his side.
A loving big family of six!
Brandt McCall THEYRE SEVEN
Congratulations! Ollie is just beautiful. And it is especially nice to know that another wonderful human is born to be humane and loving toward life. Excellent job! Love you all! ❤️
What a gorgeous family. ❤️💜💜💜❤️❤️
Beautiful...I wish my life had this moment. Awesome!
Congratulations on the birth of this Beautiful little man! Welcome to this Crazy world Oliver.
What a lovely household all those loving pets, and still time to play Playstation 😂
Gotcha Momma this is precious!! You have plenty of LOVE for everybody!!
“Look at your new adorable stepbrother!”
Gotcha: “Ok”
Letty looks like she just wants to kiss him! ♡
Gotcha is such a sweet, funny bird! He seemed confused, then excited, and when Ollie was cooing, Gotcha seemed to have a very sweet, even spiritual understanding of Ollie.
I'm going to venture that your tactic with Gotcha of helping him overcome his fears/discomforts around objects will help him tremendously as the family adjusts to Ollie and his various noises and antics. I'm quite certain that had you simply removed the "scary" things from him, Gotcha would be very fearful and would be much more likely to act out at Ollie.
You're a great Momma, Katie, to the animals and to your precious Ollie! ♡
♡♡ Congratulations to your whole family! ♡♡
Congratulations!!!!!!! I am so happy for the both of you. I know you're both going to be amazing parents. Baby Oliver is a very lucky boy! 💚💚💚🎉🎆🌈
Amazing!!! Just amazing how everyone knew to stay quiet and respectful. I love animals so much. Baby Oliver is precious! What an amazing family environment he is going to have. Much love to all of you ❤️❤️❤️.
Adorable! Two things I love most animals and babies!
I can do without both.
Ollie is a beautiful baby. Enjoy him, they grow up so fast!!
Congrats! what a handsome baby. an Gotcha looked happy.
Bless You All.
At 4:27 he's like she is mine and I'm not sharing
Love is in the air.....That's why I enjoy revisiting this video so much....
Newborns are such odd looking little things. My friend calls it "luggage stage" where they mostly just sleep and eat and poop and you can take them pretty much anyplace.
+Anne Haight Haha, your friend is a "hoot."!!!
Ps. I love your little owl.
To me, they always look like they're born as little old men or women and get younger as they fill out. Benjamin Button style, though thankfully it doesn't last as long as that. He's so darn cute now, and well past the little old man stage, as I'm typing this a wee bit later than you posted! :-)
Anne Haight okay but me tho
So smart, gentle, and sensitive. What a sweetie.
Aw baby Oliver is gorgeous! Congratulations!
HE IS SO HANDSOME! The girls are gonna be after him in high school! Future basketball or football star? I know he'll be an animal lover thanks to u & hubby! And it proven that kids who are end up so much more compassionate towards others. Congrats.
Aww congrats on your sweet baby boy!!! 👶🏼
The cute birds, they realize it's a baby and try not to make a scandal. SO cuuuuute!
who else thought gotcha was a giant looking at the thumbnail😣
Dooey me 😂
He's was closer to the camera
its amazing how the birds know to be quiet around the sleeping baby.
Congratulations on the birth of a child. I wish you, your child and spouse of good health and happiness of the sea.
Gotcha is so sweet 💟 he will definitely love Ollie!
your baby is so beautiful and handsome . Your family is beautiful aswell ( all of your pets ) ! I wish you the best blessings.
What a beautiful family! Oliver is sweet, sweet!!
Congratulations Katie, Seth & Fids on the arrival of Oliver. He is SO cute. Thank you very much for taking the time to keep us all updated, & this beautiful video & photos. Love to you all x
That child will grow up with so much confidence and bravery.
I have 2 birds, 1 parakeet, 1 blue and gold macaw, his name is tutu and he's 17. then I have 4 dogs all rottweilers,and 2 cats.
livlif32th3 fullest holy
Why not name your a sanctuary..:D
***** Honestly I'm not sure because not all my pets live with me. My birds USED to live with my cats and its been pretty bad. But if you could keep them apart in separate room or something then I believe it could work.
FFatal Gaming cats and birds would most likely not be good companions because one is the natural predator
livlif32th3 fullest the only likely way that I can see birds and cats getting on well together is if they are introduced at a young age.
OMG how precious and utterly adorable and sweet! Congratulations! 🎈🎈🎈
Beautiful baby. And to be born into such a loving family is a blessing too.
Ohhhh..... He's gorgeous! I love the short Benjamin Button phase that newborns go through. Born like beautiful little old men and women, all crinkled up, then they unfurl into babies. It's beautiful to watch. Oliver is absolutely adorable, not to mention one lucky little boy. If there's any truth to the belief that babies choose their parents then Oliver chose very wisely. Congratulations to you all (that includes Gotcha - hope he bonds closely with his new baby brother).
CONGRATULATIONS 😊😊😊💖💖💖. KATIE HE IS BEAUTIFUL. IM GLAD EVERYTHING WENT WELL. EVERYONE IS HAPPY THAT MOM, DAD, AND BROTHER OLIVER IS HOME SAFE AND HAPPY. GOD BLESS YOU ALL. HAPPY EASTER🙏🙏👼👼😊😊. WE LOVE YOU GUYS.
Baby, Dogs, and Parrots....Life is good! Congrats!
Congratulations on your beautiful baby ❤
The birds seem almost afraid at 1st. So sweet. All of you.
PS4? MY MAN!!!
Swamp Fox when i saw him.in the beginning i knew he was a gamer
Swamp Fox whats yo name on ps4 mine is Marty Madbowl
Gotcha certainly was very relaxed 👍 .. noticed Ollie will be three shortly.
LOL he is cute, my teacher is pregnant and she said she is gonna name her baby Oliver. Lol, congrats
Ollie is just perfect!
Congratulations on your beautiful baby, Oliver! Such a cute one! And all the furred and feathered kids are curious about this new edition. Do (did) they understand about baby people? I have a rescued dog and she has always reacted badly to thunderstorms. How do your individual kids react? Apologies if this has all been covered, before. You can always just tell me where to find it so you don't have to do it all, again. Best wishes on your lovely family!
Oliver has so much luck, being born in such a lovely family. He looks so cute. I wish you all the best! You deserve it more than any other family in the world. ❤
You can allow your dogs closer to Oliver. Dogs have a protective instinct, be sure they are well trained though lol
Yeah she's a mom. shes not going to let dogs near her new baby. No matter what people say online.
Temari Paku well the little pup was excited to see a new pup in the house....the other three animals not so much😝
Beautiful baby boy ,such a lovely family wish you lots of love and happiness always xxxxx
😰 *woooaaahhhh*
A cocktail AND a baby! You have the heart of a saint and the strength of a warrior! 😅 good luck!
Oli is SO adorable. He's about 8 or 9 months now right
Lovely family,my daughter was born naturally also.Only in labour three hours with her,I was so thankful for that.
Your baby is Beautiful little boy abd the animals are so sweet and gotcha understands!!
Mom, you are a marvelous person - beautiful child & beautiful birds - all having a loving, enriched life with you
I think gotcha and Oliver are on the exact same level of cuteness
can gotcha fly?
Doggie Treat
Yeah. The owner has said she has let his wings grow out (his previous owner kept them clipped) and he can fully fly.
smarter than a human. look how gentle he is.
Oliver?
Yes
Gotcha The Cockatoo Love your baby's name and he's so cute
Diana A. Its like olivier from Assassin'S CreeD IV Black Flag
Ollie has been born to a natural and beautiful family, gorgeous to see everyone getting to know each other, bravo you special family. He will know from birth that creatures are his brothers and sisters, not to be mistreated, but respected and beloved..♡
I'm surprised that Kobi the Pit still has a tail. That thing never stops wagging. That's one pitbull who knows he has found a great forever home. He's got a square meal and a place to sleep. He just don't care. So mellow. Oliver missed my birthday by 9 days.
What a beautiful and sweet baby! Congratulations to Mom and Dad and rest of the family!!
0:06 and this is what we have come to. We need to say our babies were born naturally. (This is not an insult.)
She means no kind of painkiller or anything.
Culan Der ummm childbirth isnt easy ... before modern medicine it was not uncommon for the mother and or child to die during childbirth...
And even with modern medicine, some still die during childbirth.
So no, "this isn't what we have come to."
Childbirth, natural especially, is and always has been quite a feat.
Lauren Thompson And to add to this, lying on the back to give birth is actually not helpful at all for the mother. On all fours is apparently the best, but doctors have women on their backs for their convenience.
"Whoa, it moved". I didn't know that Letty knew those words.
Congratulations on baby Oliver!
Gotcha is so cute and curious!! Pure sweetness!
So cute. He's sleeping through his welcome home party. What a loving home full of life. Congratulations :).
HUGE congratulations to you all :-) So pleased baby Oliver has arrived safely into the big wide world. Kobi looks besides himself with delight and is probably fast forwarding a couple of years when Oliver can play ball LOL. Turbo looks as if he's still sussing him out, Letty is wondering why that small person is sat next to her Daddy and making funny noises and Gotcha's probably wondering when you're taking him back because small people are as scary as shiny wrapping paper or Mom's bunny eared onsie LOL. As for Oliver - he is absolutely adorable - and you've made me want my kids to hurry up and reproduce for me to be a Nanna LOL. Really well done to you too Katie - 100% natural, wow! Way to go girl xxx
That look on that bird face gotcha be like really a baby I thought I was your baby really lol
HAPPY VERY EARLY BIRTHDAY OLIVER!!! I'M SO HAPPY THAT ALL THE ANIMALS ENJOY MEETING THEIR LITTLE BROTHER AND I'M SO HAPPY TO SEE THAT GOTCHA WAS QUIET WHILE HE WAS SLEEPING. CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR BIG FAMILY!!!!
