I am so very happy for you, Elin! My Mom and Dad had 6 children, 3 before her MS diagnosis and 3 after, and she lived to be almost 91! I’m the oldest, and I call her my Miracle Mom! We grew up in Minneapolis, and 4 of my siblings still live there. My own family moved to Fergus Falls 45 years ago and love it here. Mom was an amazing artist, seamstress, and volunteered for so many worthwhile causes. You are my favorite UA-cam channel to watch! 💕
What a story ❤. I have tears in my eyes. Bless your mom. I also was diagnosed with MS and have one child. Dream of another one. You are right. Your mom WAS a miracle mom. 🎉❤❤
Congratulations on the baby! Can't wait to hear more about motherhood from your point of view. As for small messes (and this will cause people with pinterest-worthy linen closets to get quite flappy-handed), the day I stopped folding sheets was absolutely liberating. Take the set, shove it in one of the pillowcases, throw them all in a tall woven basket and toss a decorative throw on top. Are they wrinkled? Yep. Do I care when my eyes are closed and I'm snoring? Not in the least.
Yay congrats on your little babe! You will be a fantastic mother :) Give yourself LOTS of grace! You’ve got this! And amazing that you posted a video 👏 👏 but make sure you take time for you mama ❤
Congratulations and great joy on a successful birth and homecoming! You look wonderful and hopefully the MS is under control as you continue to navigate parenting. 🤩😍
Great life video - yes we all deal with messes in every stage of life and it is a constant struggle. Congrats to you both on your baby girl and this next big adventure in life!
Great video! I always love your videos. They are so original and not just rehashing the same stuff on many other channels. You look so happy and a little tired-the look of a great new mom. So happy for your family!
Huge congratulations to you and Andy! I can't believe you squeezed in some time for a video while adjusting to a newborn. I hope you didn't miss out on a chance to nap!
Yes enjoy this newborn time. It flies! You look great and sounds like you're doing wonderfully. We look forward to hearing about your birth experience.
Awesome video Elin! Congratulations 🎉 to you and Andy. How exciting for you both you are absolutely beaming! I loved your last point. I completely agree with all your points and I do them as well to handle my messes. I love that you call them smart messes. Ingenious! It puts a more positive vibe to the word mess instead of thinking of the mess negatively.
Wow congratulations. Can’t believe you are back already making videos for us. I could barely get dress each day before it was bed time when I had my first child. Don’t forget to look after yourself too.
Congratulations on your baby girl! Such a wonderful blessing! ❤️ I can't move my clutter to a less visible place. I've moved papers and things off the kitchen counter or dining table, and then lost bills and keys. I think I'm what Cass from Clutterbug calls a butterfly. Out of sight, out of mind.😢
Congratulations on the birth of your baby!! I'm sorry it was chaotic! I am glad you and the baby are well. Aw. Yes! Babies grow so fast before your eyes. Interesting about the "smart mess" - though the idea of even a little mess makes me get the chills hehe. I wish I didn't have to have my recycling area where it is, but in a tiny two family house apartment where I can't keep it all outside, it is what it is. When people come over, I put it nicely in my closet instead. It goes out every week though, thankfully. That must be my only "mess" I have that is actually well cared for. I make it a regular thing to not build up messes because I am "allergic" to them haha. It is probably why I don't get invited to places, because people are intimidated by my tidy home and feel I'll look down on theirs. >.< I love this though, this idea of a "smart mess" as you stated. I like the questions you ask.
What are you talking about. You don't need to go on Marie Kondo's show. Just get her book and do the work. It IS life changing. I read the book about 8 years ago and I permanently reduced my mess by 70% or so. The remaining 30% is easier and quicker to deal with.
Oh Elin...congratulations!! I can't wait to hear more about the baby and your journey in motherhood.
