    I’m seeing a lot of Everett in Violet’s face. Especially her eyes & smile. Before you know it she’ll be the “Sample Queen”.

    The nail buff is definitely something I find new parents feel better using because they’re so afraid of the paper-light nails, but once you’re a seasoned mom there’s no need for it and we’re comfortable just using clippers 😂

    Listen, I am 76 years old, and I loved 🥰 this video.!! I had my first little one when I was just 19. You wouldn’t believe what we all didn’t have from your wonderful video. We still survived, but I do remember that there were so many things that we thought were amazing that we couldn’t get either, because they were so expensive. I just really enjoy and love ❤️ your videos. As I have said in your past videos, I admire you , Mark and your whole family. I know things go on off camera, but your boys are so sweet with baby Violet, and Violet is such a good girl on film. So happy. You can’t get babies 👶🏻 to be so happy on camera, but Violet is an exception. I loved the pumping part. I couldn’t get my 1st one to breast feed 😳😱 for the world! You have helped many young women today. ❤️

    I just love watching the boys with Violet. It is so obvious how much they love and adore her, and she them. Even when she's not been happy I've noticed they can go to her and make faces, jump around, or pick her up, and the next thing is Violet laughing. It really warms my heart every time I see their interactions with her, especially since it's not because they have to but because they want to. Lauren, you and Mark are truly such amazing parents, and watching the boys interact with Violet and with each other, makes just how amazing very apparent. Seeing all of you doing things together, whether it is cooking, cleaning, camping, taking a walk or hike, or fishing, is really awesome to see. Unfortunately, it seems like the majority of children today do nothing outside. Instead they spend any free time holed in their rooms on some electronic device. I absolutely love your videos, and really look forward to them.

    I wish I could have been a mother. With my niece, we used a bulb aspirator, little blue rubber thing with a long tip, to remove the congestion. Some of these items weren’t around back then but seem very useful! I am certain these great recommendations will help many. I was a classics major in college and Ceres is the Roman equivalent of the Greek goddess Demeter, agriculture, motherhood, etc. You pronounce it like SEER-ease.

    I love seeing these from seasoned moms vs first time moms. I love love your impupt especially on the pumps. I used the Medela pump and go as well. I have also used the Lansino Descreet Douo brest pumps and I really think the strength is comparable to my Medela. Not all hands free pumps are created equally and I have heard that the momcozy ones aren't the greatest. Also Milk Moms online is amazing for milk information and helping with what your insurance covers as far as pumps, milk bags, and post partum recovery items.

We used playtex droppin's for most of the grandsons but one had reflux and wound up with Dr Browns wide neck glass bottles! I agree the graco pack n play was ehh. I won a 4 Mom's Breeze Go play yard. Loved it so much better. Wet bags are amazing we used Smartbottoms and Thirsties ones. Thank you for sharing this video! Violet is adorable and looks a lot like her brother Everett!
