My advise. Keep and renovate. You won't be sorry when they all come home and share all the memories. Kids get attached to "home."
But it seems like the kids are more attached to the St. John's house, so that might not be an issue
.
@@SparkyJoonI think they are more attached to St. John the community, not necessarily the house there. 🤷🏼♀️
I LOVE your daily filming!!!! Thank you!!!
Shelly, you are such a wonderful mom. I love your nonjudgmental attitude and the way you support those around you. I admire you. Thank you for letting us feel a part of your family.
Love your family
I love when you two do Q&A vlogs - your answers are so honest and sincere and reflect the vast love that you both have for each other and all of your family❤ A beautiful thing to see and hear - thank you for sharing 🙏💙🤩‼️ I love your house and would keep it and just do renovations (unless you find a different house which you all love)‼️👍
Shelly.. I think you were exactly the type of mother Cody needed at that time. He needed someone who would steer him in the right path. He needed someone to nag him a bit. To teach him responsibilities and self management skills.
Haha Shelly you had us riding on an emotional roller coaster! 🤣 Yesterday's video you had us laughing and today you had us crying 😭😅
The love your family have for each other and for your CM family is truly heart-warming and inspiring! 🥹🥰
Much love & many blessings 🙏🫶🏻
I loved how you did you wish Cody would move back home. How you love him so much. Have you thought of maybe taking a little getaway with just Cody and doing things with him? A road trip or something if he is available. Or just taking a day so you and Cody can do some fun things together and have that quality time together?
I almost cried when you said you were excited to be a mom and then Lacey said she was pregnant! I love you both and being a great parent for your many children . Love from Canada 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I was so happy at Shelly’s reaction to Lacy being pregnant. Children should all be loved and celebrated when they come to be. Unless a parent has a bad problem where they can’t parent they need to find joy in their life. I understand someone that’s on drugs not being happy because of health worries. What happened to the son that you found and was coming around?
Kudos to the editorial comments when Shelly named the kids and left two out. That was funny as heck.
Shelley, I really appreciate you telling the when you got pregnant with Kylie story I’ve always wondered but felt like it was rude to ask . That’s special.
I straight up cried with you as you discussed your relationship with Cody. I went through similar years with my mom... and sadly, our relationship didn't improve until the day she was diagnosed with terminal cancer... she and I had 11 months of the best relationship... i cherish that time. It erased all the rough years for me.
You are such a great mom, Shelly!! I appreciate so much that the success of this platform didn't change you. Your "Why" has stayed the same, and it shows every day. ❤
I am so sorry for your loss, but I am so happy you had those special 11 months with your mom. Sending you love and prayers.
Never never a boring video with y'all! Shelly you had me in tears talking about Cody! As a single mother of 2 boys(8&10) we've hit a rough patch. And oh how I just pray it would pass. Hearing you say that about your son really got to me, so thank you! I am so thankful I have found y'all's channel (almost 5 years now) and you guys are amazing! Lots of Love from NC💜✌🏼🤗
I was trying to say take care of your boys and always know who the adults are around them, and make sure they know you are safe to talk to about anything, they don't have to worry about you not believing them and they don't have to worry about you being angry with them.
Loved hearing your experience of your teenage pregnancy and how you used it for the good when Lacey shared her pregnancy with you. It definitely explains why your reaction was so loving and big. Not that you owe anyone an explanation, but it really impacted me in a positive way. Thank you for being so vulnerable in this Q an A.
Shelly never apologize for having your feelings your a mom and your allowed to have them so just have your feelings and know your heart is wonderful. And as for your weight I’m new to your channel and I see your change you look amazing..
Shelly, you are so beautiful inside and out! Was the movie wicked good? Cannot believe y’all started youtube basically almost 10 years ago!! Kylie is a blessing to you Shelly and so glad you didn’t give her up for adoption since she is so loved by everyone! Is Kylie close to your mom Shelly? Love y’all!! ❤
Hi Shelly
Shelley, I wish you could see yourself through all of our eyes, you are looking amazing girl! ❤
Thank you so much! That means a lot!
My mind is 30, and my bodies ability is 80 but on my birth certificate, I turned 46 this year. When I was 32, my lifelong specialists gave me two years at the most so I'm proud of the fight I've gone through to stay alive. Your years represent all you have both gone through a lot especially with all the children you have taken into your home and heart including the many that just stayed for a while. When I was well enough I was a school teacher and I knew I was going to be a mum through fostering and adopting when I was only 16 which was when my specialist told me I couldn't carry a baby full term. You are both amazing and I feel blessed to share a connection with you. I very much have God in my heart but I'm unable to get myself to church. I admire both of you a lot. Thank you for telling us such personal information it has helped me to be okay with myself and I appreciate you all.
Congrats 🎉❤
Amy, the beginning of your message, I Feel You. You should be so proud of yourself for proving the docs wrong. Us survivors in life are god's gifts ❤❤❤
Congratulations on 100 days of filming in a row !! Great work everyone!!!
Shelly I can see your weight loss especially in your face and neck. I hope you can feel it and feel wonderful.
I can see your love and pain regarding Cody, and wishing you had some more time with him as a child. ❤️
Kylie is such a treasure and so is Bex. So glad they are in the world to give us so much joy. Your choices were right.
Shelly I cried with you. Anytime anyone cries my tears just start flowing. I wanted a big family, but I stopped at 3, 3 daughter's. I enjoy watching y'all's videos. Y'all make parenting look so easy. And it can be but struggling sometimes gets in my path. Anyways Y'all's family is beautiful ❤
I love watching you all. I worked in a bank too Shelly. I was a teller supervisor. I got robbed twice. After 5 years I moved on. I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy new year!❤❤❤
Poor Shelly you forgot Trey & Brinley. Love all of your family
Oh my gosh Shelly !!! Stop making me cry every time you talk about the kids 🥹♥️ I love you and your family you guys are the joy of my day ♥️
yes, this time she got me talking about Cody and its not even 3am in the morning
I so enjoyed Shelly's Q&A! She has such a beautiful soul and you can see it everytime she talks about one of the kiddos!
When you talked about Cody and wishing you had a few more years, I couldn’t help but cry. I have 2 boys at home and just thinking of them growing and moving out kills me. I love seeing Cody, he cracks me up in every video! Sending love from my family in NH to yours ♥️
Her talking about that and tearing up literally broke me 🥺❤️ she's one of the best moms I have seen
@ agreed! You can just tell how much she truly loves her kids
When Shelly cries I cry , I can’t believe that when I first watched your videos you would never see Shelly , Shelly I am glad you came out of that shell and your an amazing person I honestly wish I was like you. The biggest heart ♥️
I think this was a top tear video. Definitely one of my favourites! Just two parents, loving each other, making each other laugh and talking so loving about there children. I LOVE Shelly and Jered. This is exactly the reason why i’m so stuck to this yt channel for over 5-6 years! Also loved Jered’s Q&A! Shelly was so funny😂 also loved how good they talk to/ of eachother.
Been refreshing for the past hour Lol! Cant wait to watch.
Shelley, Jared and you must really be feeling the benefits of your weight loss. I've lost some, mostly working . out at a specialized gym for 60+. They really look after us. They are physiologists and exercise scientists - all either having had completed or are working towards their Masters. It's a great atmosphere, too. Keep on working along your journeys, and towards your goals.
I thoroughly enjoyed this Q&A. I was so touched by your stories about when your were pregnant with Kylie and then how that impacted your reaction to Lacey, and the story about the girls surrounding your foster daughter that was missing her Mom. I can’t even imagine that moment for a child. The ache for their bio parents or siblings and then to be surrounded by those that understood and simply offered comfort. ❤ I also love your heartfelt desire for redeeming the years with Cody by having him home. I think we all relate to some area of our lives like that. Cody is a great young man and you should be proud because you did play a huge part in that. And now he is relaxed and so funny and fun-loving! ❤
You look amazing Shelly! Your heart is SO BIG! ❤❤❤
Both of your Q&As were a pleasure to watch. I wish you had more time for Crazy in Love because you obviously are in love and it is heartwarming to see. This is what helps you be great parents.
I love Kylie I'm glad you had her she's a real gem ❤
Wow Shelly I have been watching you forever and never heard the story about why you wanted to starting fostering and adopting.. that was powerful. Does he know that his words made you guys want to starting doing that for other kids? The story about the girls surrounding a foster with love is amazing.. ♥ super super hear warming!! Sometimes your kids growing up is when you become the closest.. I'm so happy for you and Cody growing your relationship!!
Love how open and honest and vulnerable you all are!!!
As a 24 almost 25 year old trying to loose to feel over all healthier it is honestly a non linear rollercoaster. I was doing good with my weight loss about 20ish pounds away from my final weight range goal then life spun and did a complete 180 and due to life circumstances my weight loss was put on hold and went way backward while having to live on on the go/fast food stuff while taking care of my grandma while she was sick before she eventually passed in fall of 2021 ive been trying to get back to where I was before I slid backward its been a rough go but not loosing hope and trying to not loose motivation 🙏🏼 Please please please DO NOT GET DISCOURAGED OR BEAT YOURSELF UP Shelley the longer it takes to loose it the better it is for you because that steady loss means your skin and muscles will readjust better with your changes and slowly gain some more elasticity going back to how it was before you gained but also if others are noticing your loosing it wont be too long before you notice it too. Keep up the amazing work you do. ❤ I love you, your family and yalls videos so much they give me so much happiness and a smile to watch every time you post.
Please don’t ever be sorry for a longer video, appreciate your time and effort that you put into these and willing to share your wonderful family.
Hands down, my favourite UA-cam family!
These videos are quickly becoming my favorites. I love seeing the more grownup side of having a large family and parenting. Appreciate all that you all share! 🫶🏼
Shelly, I have been watching your shows since 2018. You really have mellowed and seem as though you enjoy life these days. Please continue to post often. We really enjoy your family.
Shelly, I was also a bank teller for many years and I still am fast at counting money, but definitely not as fast. Loved watching you all! I cried with you and laughed with you! You and Jared have made the most beautiful and amazing family!
I absolutely love your videos and just seeing a glimpse into y’all’s daily life. You guys totally were made for each other. That was such a sweet moment at the end
Shelley, You are looking amazing! The shirt you have on with the white sleeves really Access the amount of weight that you have lost. Keep up the good work! I know how hard it is, as I have yo-yoed my entire life. So proud of you and Jared! May you both be blessed for all you do!❤
Really enjoyed yesterday and today's videos. Learned so much about the two of you. Esp loved the story about how you and Crystal came to foster and adopt.
I'm one of 5 kids. My mom liked having that many for lots of reasons, but one was that even if one or two of us was in a "bad" phase and not liking parents, there were always others who were in "pro-parent" phases! I always wanted a big family, and now that I'm an empty-nester I get so lonely -- have two wonderful children (through foster care-adopt) -- but I never got marriage right. Love that you are so blessed, Shelly and Jared!
I agree with editor - extra gifts for Brinkley & Trey! 😂
i love this so much. i love when you talk about experiences you’ve had with the kids. it’s obvious how much you love them, even the ones that you couldn’t adopt.
i do wonder, though- when you talked about which kids you would want to move back in, you mentioned harlan’s name. what reason do you have for wanting him specifically to move back?
Love this deeper vulnerable 1 on 1 with Shelly and Jared. I was crying with you 😭😍 and CODY PLEASE MOVE BACK HOME ❤
If I wasn’t 50 and wasn’t already part of a loving family I would have liked to have had you guys and the kids as my adoptive family. You guys are such an inspiration and all the kids are so caring and loving. I applied to foster in the UK earlier this year but unfortunately I was turned down as I live with my elderly parents and mum is showing early signs of dementia. I will revisit the option again in a few years though x
Yes Lacy looks like your biological child for sure❤
Shelly ur weight loss is awesome u can definitely tell and see it! We’re proud of you keep going!
Congratulations on your health journey, Jared is right it may help to look back at videos or even photos. I know it helped me see it on my journey as I was the same didn't feel or see the difference, but everyone around me could. But once i seen a photo that was of me 12mths prior I could see there was a big difference especially in my face shape.
I feel like Cody feels the same way and that’s why he is there as much as he is. I think he longs for that also.
I've been watching for like six years. I had forgotten / didn't clue in you were a teen mom like Crystal. Did you marry Kylie's father before or after the birth?
I have loved your daily video updates! I think your family is so fun no matter what you do, even if it’s nothing.
Shelly I’m in the process of losing weight so I wasn’t really surprised at your response when you said you don’t see your weight loss but I sure see it. You are looking so good and your weight loss is really starting to show a lot! You are amazing. I know how hard it is to lose weight and keep doing it, you and Jared have been doing great!
Shelly is such a wonderful mother figure and the kids know that they are loved who has as a wonderful partner in Jared.
I just love you so much Shelly! Honestly you have the most sweetest soul and you remind me so…much of my mum and that is awesome, you are an amazing mum, and I love watching you being one. I just wish I could give you a big hug! Hehe you sure have that motherly love and i can feel it when when I watch your vlogs. ❤️
❤❤❤ Shelly has such a beautiful heart and soul. You are the best mother for Kylie even at 16!!!!! ❤ and for the rest of your babies ❤❤❤
Sweet, sweet Shellie, I respect you soooooo much. I find you to be very real and not fake. You show your love for your children (Jared too) it radiates from you. While i know you provide their needs and I am sure some of their wants BUT you don't make it like you are buying their love. I understand that the children have experienced trauma and have to deal with their emotional issues and it's a long journey. My mother at the age of 79 (and we were having a honest conversation about my daddy committing suicide and I was 62 at the time and I still deal with my heart issues and I was sixteen when he died; anyways she was given away but she felt like she was thrown away at a very young age under 2 years of age) never wanted me to know what it felt like to be unwanted. She felt like this all of her life and even though I loved her my love could not or did not make it better. My mom passed away last year. But it's not that I don't think my dad did not love me BUT do you have any suggestions on not mending or getting past a broken heart but just making each day less sad? Grief, sadness is my constant companion. My most precious blessings were my children and they are my Angels now and my four sons watch over me from Heaven.
My oldest was adopted and we had a wonderful relationship. I knew where his biological mother was and I offered to arrange a meeting in any way he desired and he refused. He was gifted and blessed my life when he was two years of age. I don't know why I felt the need to share this snippet of my journey in this life but here it is. I truly think you are amazing and so down to earth and real.
You look good Shelly it take awhile for u to see a change but keep up the good work, I love your family and how yall love being around each other.
You two are SO AWESOME. You remind me of my parents. I'm a single mum to 2 sons, ages 16 & 20, I've been single 14yrs, MY choice, but love it. Just me and my boys. I never found the right person to share my life with, I think it's due to me putting too much pressure and thought into what a relationship should be. I always tried to copy what my parents had (I say had, because we lost my mum 6yrs ago in April) My parents would have been married 52 years on Dec 17th, and together 54 yrs in total. 1 of my Dads sisters has only been married once too, approx 40yrs, and 1 of my Mums sisters, also married approx 35yrs and both sets of grandparents, and great grandparents were married all their lives too. So all my cousins and I, had a lot to live upto, and put a lot of pressure on ourselves, sadly all ending up single. But it's our choice, we all love our lives and kids.
Both of you are incredible, you laugh together, have fun together, parent together, work & live together (which is hard enough for some people, let alone having a big family to tend too also). You are definitely what I'd call "Couple Goals", what you both have is rare in this day and age, it's a sad statement, but realistically true unfortunately.
xxx You have very lucky kids, because they have amazing parents xxx and on the flip-side of that, you are very lucky parents, because you have amazing kids xxx
I loved that you were able to be excited for Lacy! So sorry that wasn’t your experience. I hope to remember that, if my child happens to get pregnant early. Yes, it’ll be challenging, but lack of support won’t make things easier on anyone.
I loved both videos of the Q&As with Shelley and Jared. Shelley, I understand your editing mind while you are watching movies. Many years ago I worked in a photo lab and one of my duties was color correcting wedding photos (it was done manually back then, nothing was digital at that time). To this day I still see whether the colors are right or off on photos and in my mind I'm adding magenta or cyan. LOL I absolutely love your family and thank you for sharing your lives with us.
I was a barmaid in my younger days and loved it.i had never pulled a pint before but it came naturally.when I started in a bingo hall I was playing in the Sunday afternoon by the evening I was serving in the snack bar making sandwiches ect then running around checking claims.
On renovating have you thought about moving the staircase from up stairs. Then closing off the one to downstairs making the living room bigger? Also raining up the part in front of the fireplace.
The conversation about Christmas was interesting for me. I have lived in Northern Utah my whole life, with snow every winter. But in January I’m moving to Arizona. I am so excited to NOT have snow. I’m sure at some point I’ll miss it but for now, I am thrilled to move where it’s warmer.
“Keep it crazy”… 15:20… “keep it calm” now I’m thrown for a loop🤣
This was a great q&a Shelly, been following since St John’s and I learned new things. You and Jared are amazing parents and your kids are so lucky to of found you!
Shelley, us big girl will find it harder to see our weight loss. I have gone down 3 pant sizes and still my old self in the mirror. Keep up the great work.
Such lovely parents you guys are inspirational. We only have 3 miracles due to infertility and some days it’s tough but seeing how calm you are is lovely
Not a question, but I wanted to say, as a 30 year old mom of 2, you make me wish I was a little girl who'd you guys choose to adopt, the amount of love you give your kids is breath taking, right down to forgiveness and wanting to go back to have a few more years with Cody even though he was harder to handle, you wanted to make up for the time, my mom still just hates and always uses the past against us, as a mom now I understand what it means to love your child. These kids are so lucky to have you guys 🥺❤️ forever wishing I was one of the crazy middles ❤️
on the weight loss my boyfriend is 77 and he had to lose weight to live and so we chose a different way of eating no chips no candy and only one or two sweets in a month and we eat salads almost every night and steak or chicken and not fried and he loist over a 100 lbs in a year and we keep at it. I have gone from 189 to 124 and feel good it is work but great
I'm always thinking that I am late to a video but not today glad I am here a tad bit late I just lost my grandpa this afternoon and this video is making me forget about my day today. Thankyou for making my day a little better
I fully believe that you and Cody have the relationship you do know Because of butting heads when he was living at home. He (I think) had to push to see if you would keep loving him or wish you’d never adopted him. Just my thoughts. ❤
Ive really been missing the challenge videos these days. But anyways, yall are an awesome family. Probably my dream family because of living in a toxic household. It's a long story but watching your videos really make my day and I don't even realise i'm smiling! Keep doing what your doing! ❤
Definitely not boring. Loved this. Ty❤🙏
I completely understand what you were saying about Cody. Wanting a few good years almost like a redo. It sounds a lot like how things were with my son.
I’m in tears listening to that story of the girls comforting that little foster girl thanks Shelly I’m an emotional mess now! lol xx
Shelly I feel the same way you do about my own weight loss journey. I take Zepbound & even though the numbers on the scale are getting smaller, I don't notice it.
Enjoying the videos where you ask, questions of each other gives more of an insight as to why and how each of the kids are.❤️🥰
I have to say y’all are my favorite on UA-cam! You both are an inspiration and I can see the love you have for your beautiful family!!! ❤
You guys are definitely made for this...love you guys 💖
I love the videos since it has just been your daily life. That is my favorite. It’s like you don’t have to come up with a bunch of fake stuff to have fun as a family. Also appreciate that you don’t use Clickbait. One of those people that sees almost everything is black and white and that’s deception to me.
You’re not boring! It’s nice to learn about you guys!
Thank you for this update on Shelly. I enjoyed it very much. I love the story about Cody moving back in❤ it made cry because I have a beautiful relationship with my son. Mom/son bond is a blessing😊
Doesn't Cody and Harlen live together?
@ They used to. Not sure if they still do. Harlen doesn’t go to his parent’s house as much.
Hello crazy Middle's Best Family Ever Thank you so so much for sharing another amazing video and a great Q&A Shelly you are amazing and a beautiful person inside and out ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Love the Q&A. Shelly, you are truly an inspiration. A womderful mom and such a beautiful soul.
Thank you so much! You are so sweet! 💖
I totally agree. The two of you were made for this.
I think you and Jared look amazing!! Try taking measurements of different parts of your body at the beginning of the month then again at the end of the month especially if you’re not seeing movement on the scale. Sometimes if the scale isn’t showing weight loss you’ll see a change in the measurements. Also, keep up with your water intake. That will help as well. Don’t get discouraged you both are doing a great job!! 💜
for your weight loss, go to the grocery store and pick up 4 10 lb bags of potatos and feel exactly how much you’ve lost!! that always gave me the motivation i needed to see exactly how much i lost in a perspective of something i handle frequently!
Shelley you are a beautiful soul inside and out
Kylie and Bexley are both treasures
Shelley you are truly an inspiration , you are a great mom
I love your family
Thank you so much! I appreciate your kind words! 💖
@CRAZYMIDDLES You are very welcome!
7-7-67 just 10 years older! 🥳 it’s been fun watching your videos! Thanks!
The new friend Crystal brought home that day, does he know the impact he's had on all your lives or did you lose contact?
You should remodel the kitchen, bathrooms and laundry in this house. You need to find a new house similar to Crystal’s new house. (Also involves low maintenance and your needs.)❤❤❤❤
Very sweet! I think if Cody watches this one he will be very touched ❤❤❤
Question: Do y'all follow a specific diet for your weight loss? If so, what is it? Also is it hard to stick to it when also having to cook differently for your large family?
Hi guys❤😊in tears,especially when shelly was talking about cody❤😊he has a lovely personality
I always say they are not spoiled, but they are loved a lot!
Cody move back, I thought he lives there lol just because he's over all the time. He's the funniest and he has so much energy for always saying he tired lol.
Shelly, I wanted to jump on here to say that the top you had on for this video shows you have lost weight. You are doing a fantastic job. Sending Love from New Zealand. ❤
It was funny hearing Hannah on yesterday’s crazy pieces video saying Ariana there’s more at the store! It reminded me of you.
Loving your outfit Shelly. Colour really suits you.
Stay safe guys xx
Shelly…I totally see your weight loss…mostly in your pretty face.
I too have recently lost 45 pounds…and feel exactly
The same as you…I don’t see it or feel it. Hopefully we will both see and feel the difference soon…!
Love watching your family…I look forward to it every day. ❤
Congratulations on your 100th day of filming I've really enjoyed watching everyone of your videos. Your family is awesome I'd love to one day meet you all and Crystal & Aarons family too. Also your mom is so sweet I can picture having her as a friend if I lived anywhere near you all I'd love to have an early morning walking partner. God has really blessed your families!
