Gee, I wonder how Zander survived without all the advice people give you, lol. You are a wonderful mother. Zander will always be such a great big brother, I just know it.
Mom just take your time. It takes 9 months to grow a beautiful baby so take a year to heal body and strength. My doctor was so cool he said women should give there body a year to get back to where they were. You look awesome. Prays for all.
Your husbands face when he holds Lexi , he looks absolutely besotted. Zander will be fine, he’s doing so well it’s hard for him to share mum and dad but he will get there. Just remember you are not alone your Heavenly Father is with you all the time xxxxxx
Yep Xander, sometimes us grownups would like to cover our ears and run to a corner, too! 🤣 Lexi is already changing so much and getting cuter by the day! Xander is going to be such a great big brother. I can just see him always looking out for her, just like a mother hen🥰 Great video👍🏼 God Bless🙏
She is beautiful! Xander is such a big brother. I loved him finding clothes for her. He is such a sweetheart. I can't wait to see the pictures. Don't push yourself too hard. Give yourself time to heal. Be blessed.
I love that you do what is best for your baby, regardless of comments from others. You are outstanding! Your body just gave birth to an entire newborn human! I pray you are giving your body PATIENCE and your mind and heart GRACE that you need as you heal and adjust to life with a five year old and a newborn. May God richly and sweetly bless your home and your lovely family!
Lexi is so beautiful. She is lucky to have a big brother to help her! The girls did a great job with your flowers! Hope you get stronger and stronger, and feel like you!
Beautiful baby, beautiful family, beautiful mama! Thanks so much for sharing about your life during this crazy, special time. I’m due with my third (will have 3 kiddos, 4yo and under) in just a couple weeks so this video was inspiring to me. I’m praying I get a Lexi baby!! 😊 And I just want to add - be kind to yourself about the baby weight. You are breastfeeding and so loved by your family no matter the size. Give yourself grace and don’t get discouraged over it while you’re doing so well managing so much ❤️
I'm in my 60's and I remember well, I was exhausted and only had a 4 year old. It took me about a month to feel better and get my energy back. I learned to sleep when that baby slept and I went to bed early at night. I made supper early in the afternoon and kept for evening and that helped because by that time I was pooped. Baths, dishes and a load of laundry and I was done. Just remember that when she gets a little older she will nurse longer as she will regulate her milk supply. Hang in there mama! And Congratulations!!
Your flowers look beautiful! Such terrific nieces are such a blessing. My son also nursed every 2 hours. Now he is 6’5”, so apparently his constant need to nurse was because he was growing an incredibly huge body! Our daughters were better sleepers. May God continue to bless your family !
I did the roll of the towel with my babies. I'm old fashioned with alot of things. Yes, I remember those getting stains out of gowns and outfits, from the blow outs!That is exactly what I would call it. Don't push yourself. She is precious! God Bless and lots of love from a Grandma in Cali 🌺
I enjoyed this video and your nieces did a great job on your flower beds. I am 59 and still have a flat head from being left on my back alot as an infant. I was the youngest of five so I imagine everyone was too busy to hold or reposition me much. 🙂
Your looking amazing having a newborn xxx :) your children are gorgeous. Zander is so loving and polite especially with Lexi :) What an amazing family to help you do those flower beds, they will be lovely in the weeks to come xxx
Awe that precious little sound Lexi was making ❤️❤️ , Praise the Lord she passed her hearing test ,I think she favors your husband ,I think it’s so cute when Zander pats her on her little noses ❤️❤️ your flower 🌸 beds looks great ❤️❤️
My husband's sister is 5 years younger. She grew up adoring her brother. He, on the other hand, like Xander, remembered the "good ole days with much fondness. Lol! They haved shared many similar interests and talk weekly. It's an interesting sibling dynamic being 5 years apart, but they're quite close.
Love your content and how your life is just real! You have had life experience, and many ups and downs we can relate too. Some of these other mom channels are so glossed over to show only the good, and they also lack life experience and maturity! Just want you to know I love your channel! God bless you and your family!!!
Thank you for that. It means a lot as that's a big thing I dislike... but I hard balance to find... is when we portray life just perfect when it's not. Yet it can be difficult to know what to share and what is oversharing with the hard things. So thank you.
She is, of course, adorable!! She’s very calm!!! And you look amazing!! Use this time to recover without feeling driven and remember that you deserve this season of rest. If you push you’ll pay later. I’m the queen of “resting makes me feel lazy”. God made our bodies to have good rest! So no pressure, ok?
This was such an amazing update, your daughter is absolutely beautiful I love all the photos and that you were able to capture the beautiful eye contact between Nolan and his daughter was stunning. God bless all of you 🙏🙏👍👍💕💕💕
I think you are very smart in letting her sleep that way, my baby was asleep on her back and got so strangled from spit up that she quit breathing , at two months, called an ambulance and hospitalized to find out that her esophagus flap didn’t close, so then we had to have her sleep upright at an angle, and had to give her baby cereal to thicken her formula, and another thing, I think it’s so crazy that people bind their babies up, they are born out of the womb to grow and move and stretch, babies can’t move, it reminds me of the Chinese women use to bind their feet, please don’t give me hate mail over my last comment, it’s just my belief
Lexi is just perfect and Xander is the cutest big brother. I used to lay my babies exactly the same way as you do. I would put a blanket over the top and tuck it in tight to keep baby secure. You're looking well ,it's nice when you get a good sleeper.
Bless him Zander is doing great, its a huge adjustment after having you both to himself for so long. The little baby snores were so cute. Breast feeding will help shift the baby weight , the body stores the calories in anticipation but dont cut back too much. sending love and prayers your way
Oh Xander. He's a sweetheart. With some very normal thoughts about wanting things to go back to the way they were. Lexi is a darling baby but I think you are handling the issues perfectly. It will change of course with every stage Lexi goes through. Both kids will be just fine. I got a lump in my throat when daddy was holding his little girl and she was looking up at him. Precious beyond words.
I was the same way with the flat head deal! My 1st grandbaby I taught my daughter. I also made sure my daughter could swaddle. Motherhood is so amazing!
I love that you just turned your flower beds over to your very capable nieces...so wise to delegate that task so that you could focus on your sweet babes Zander and Lexi! :D
Such a blessing to have nieces help you out with your flower beds. They did a wonderful job. Boy mom of 2 and 1 girl here and I must admit my boys never slept and ate all the time, especially my oldest who was a boy. I didn't think I would ever sleep a full night again LOL then my 3rd came a long and it was my daughter everything was so easy with her. She slept from the first night maybe got up once a night, but oh my I was thankful for sleep again. Now my kids are grown we joke and have good laughs about it all. I know in the season it can be hard but know it will pass. Once you adjust and develop that schedule it will be a breeze trust me and you will be saying this isn't so bad. Your little Lexi is just adorable and I can't wait to see pictures Xander will love playing with her as she grows and Nolan and her will have such a special bond Father and daughter just you melt your heart. Thank you for sharing your family with us. Be Blessed. God is good!
that's so interesting! I was wondering if it was a boy vs girl thing. Boys being hungrier so much more. she sure is a breeze so far in comparison! Thanks for sharing!
I really enjoy all your videos both your babies are so beautiful your son has a million dollar smile blessings to you and your amazing family 👋🏼👋🏼👏🏼👍✌️🙏🏽👼🏽👼🏽🇵🇷👵🏼
Awe, you are doing so good! Nice to have family to help! Your flower bed looks so nice! You all as a family are going through an adjustment. It can be trying at times but it's so worth it. Zander looks at her with so much love for her. I could see it when he sat with her on the couch.
I’m glad your recovery is going well and you look great Jeannine! What a precious little joy you have! I liked how she looked at her dad at the end of the video! Zander is such a good brother! Blessings! 🙏🌸🌼🌺
Oh my goodness I can’t believe so much time as passed already. Congratulations on your baby girl and addition to your family. I’m so happy for y’all. Your absolutely glowing and look fabulous. Remember self care is important. Your blessed to have a supportive family.
Oh Jeanine; this is a lovely video. Gorgeous baby girl, busy Xander, doting daddy, lovely nieces, adorable puppy, great photos, ......and you look beautiful. Be kind to yourself! 🐾🥰
In no time at all everything will be just routine and Zander will not even hear his sisters crying . It takes time for you all too adjust . God bless and hope all get the rest you need with new baby in house. 😍
Add some baking soda to the dawn and peroxide, I just make a pile in my sink of those three, grab an old toothbrush mix together spread on stains, go on your merry way for awhile, till you think of it again, rinse out the spots, and no scrubbing needed.. works amazing every time for me... currently have a 3 1/2 mo.
You are so fortunate to have your family so close, my mom had passed and my other family was so far away so I basically was on my own. She is so precious
Looks like things are going very well! So wonderful to have the nieces to help out with the flower beds! They did a wonderful job! So glad that you and Lexi had some alone time! Our kids slept on their sides like you are doing. The theory at the time was it was better if they burped up any milk. There wouldn't be any choking hazard because it would dribble out but if they were on their back, they might not be able to get it out. Love how Lexi looks at her Dad! She is staring at him! Xander might be sensitive to noise, so maybe he would like a special pair of earplugs for Lexi's noisy times! It will keep him busy, running to get them and putting them in, and make the noise more bearable. She looked adorable in the baby pictures! Laughed seeing Xanders feet going a mile a minute while he held her. Hope you two have lots of conversations because there are a lot of feelings going on in that bouncy boy! You look great! The hardest part is being housebound and not snacking so it's great you are able to get out!
Your flowers are just beautiful, such talented ladies. I lost my big brother almost 5 years ago & was thinking that if every girl had a big brother like Xander we would all be better off. He’s so precious with Lexi 💝
Thats the same thing i did with my 2 sons when they were newborn babies roll a blanket put behind there lil backs n head and always rotating them lexi sp adorable beautiful baby girl
I have 3 daughters in their 30’s and I put a rolled up blanket behind their backs too, and they were fine. :) I was afraid they would choke if they spit up. :/ I believe you are a very good mom!!
I told my babiess dr that I put a rolled up blanket behind because my oldest has bad choking episodes from being a preemie and she agreed with me to do so! It scared me when she'd choke and flat on her back made no common sense 🤷🏼♀️
You have a beautiful home. Your family is so sweet. Much love to you all on your new family addition. Don't worry about weight. You just had a baby. You look great. God Bless.☺
Xander is such a good big brother. It's so sweet how Lexie looks at you and Nolan. She knows who you both are. The pics look so sweet. So proud you treated yourself to getting flower beds fixed. They are beautiful. Love your sweet family. So glad to see this video.
Hi, Jeannine :) I told my husband as we watched, "I'll try to spare her another story of how similar I feel that her birth story continues to be....but golly it's hard!" Once again, the connection here is a fun blessing. After our daughter Mia was born, joining our firstborn Zachery (who I've said is just SO much like your Xander...) then almost 3.5 yrs, I was all set to be sleep starved etc and it just didn't happen. Zachery would eat every 2 hrs on the dot, usually every 1.5 hrs beginning his hunger cries...so when Mia kept sleeping I was like, "wow, is this for real?" I really don't have to explain it any more as your description of Lexi & Xander was like me telling about Z & Mia, flashing back to the year 2000 when we brought her home tht Sept!! Often I'd joke and say, it feels like we just went thru the newborn stuff one time...instead of two times. Isn't it neat how God reveals such different and uniquely special character in each of our children? Mia continued to be pretty calm and more well... "still"..and Zachery was our enthusiastic dinosaur 🦕voice presence. What a joy it was to have some of each. I love what Xander said about girls bring cuter and how Lexi was even the cutest at that. Precious🥰😇 I love how they swaddle babies now. I never knew about that but I do remember friends doing the rolled blanket sometimes. Our son liked to lay on his back constantly but our daughter preferred sleeping in her bouncy seat or car seat. I know tht probably sounds uncomfortable but she was so happy to be snuggled into a compacted area. If only I'd known about swaddling. I wonder if that's why her head turned out so beautifully round 🤔Interesting..bc she was often not smack dab on her back. God Bless you all and I'll continue to pray for continued good health for you and the whole family as well. Try not to focus on getting the weight where you want it to be, it will all happen in good timing although I know it was tough going through that and those feelings were definitely valid! We seem to just be hard on ourselves. We are truly our biggest critics but you are beautiful and, blessed with wisdom ❤at your young age 😉 Thank you for sharing these priceless moments of your lives. Makes me feel like yesterday was just 2000. Love & Hugs! Julie P.S. My husband thinks the channel is called. "Xander." Because he must miss our little guy at tht age more than he'd like to admit🤭
Ahh Thanks for sharing! I enjoyed reading this! They did so similar lol. I agree with you! It just dies not feel like I have a newborn it's been so much easier this round. I'm still waiting till she changes her mind and decides to do newborn things 😀
Y'all are amazing parents. God has blessed talk with 2 beautiful creations your son and daughter. Special gifts from God. The love y'all have is such a blessing and your nieces did an amazing job with the flowers and it brings out the beauty to y'all's home. God is blessing y'all abundantly
Absolutely loved the way Lexi was gazing into Nolans eye, so precious!
Gee, I wonder how Zander survived without all the advice people give you, lol. You are a wonderful mother. Zander will always be such a great big brother, I just know it.
🤣🤣 thanks for the laugh
Haha 😄
Xander is so sweet with his sister, it’s lovely to see :0)
Mom just take your time. It takes 9 months to grow a beautiful baby so take a year to heal body and strength. My doctor was so cool he said women should give there body a year to get back to where they were. You look awesome. Prays for all.
The flower beds are BEAUTIFUL.hope you show them again when they have been for awhile,I see the kids all look happy and healthy enjoy
🌸🌸🌸
I always did that with my 3 children. I’m 64 and they turned out fine.
Xander and his dog, soooo cute 🥰
When our baby was in the NICU this year, our nurses would often lay a rolled up swaddle the same way you did and she seemed to really liked that.
Your husbands face when he holds Lexi , he looks absolutely besotted. Zander will be fine, he’s doing so well it’s hard for him to share mum and dad but he will get there. Just remember you are not alone your Heavenly Father is with you all the time xxxxxx
Thank you!!! 💗
Oh she is so precious.
Yep Xander, sometimes us grownups would like to cover our ears and run to a corner, too! 🤣
Lexi is already changing so much and getting cuter by the day!
Xander is going to be such a great big brother. I can just see him always looking out for her, just like a mother hen🥰
Great video👍🏼
God Bless🙏

I do not remember seeing you so happy in a long time.
🙂 yes it feels like we are on a mountain top in comparison to much we've been thru over the past few years. God is good!
Her and daddy looking at each other made me tear up! So special!!!
You are doing so well. Well done. I think you are so more relaxed with second children and as a result the child sleeps much better xxxxxx
Yes this could be quite true! So much easier second time
Xander is such a wonderful brother! Lexi is adorable! Love the family pictures. Your flower garden is beautiful
All normal adjustments happening! You look great and are doing a wonderful job! Your blessed to have family that close for sure!
Your flowers look beautiful! Such terrific nieces are such a blessing.
My son also nursed every 2 hours. Now he is 6’5”, so apparently his constant need to nurse was because he was growing an incredibly huge body! Our daughters were better sleepers.
May God continue to bless your family !
Beautiful family!!! Love you all ❤❤❤❤😃😃😃😃😃😃
I did the roll of the towel with my babies. I'm old fashioned with alot of things. Yes, I remember those getting stains out of gowns and outfits, from the blow outs!That is exactly what I would call it. Don't push yourself. She is precious! God Bless and lots of love from a Grandma in Cali 🌺
Every time I watch your videos, I think of WHAT a treasure you are making for your future self!
Thanks! I've always enjoyed documenting life and that's something o never what to stop
Beautiful job with the posies. 🌻
I enjoyed this video and your nieces did a great job on your flower beds. I am 59 and still have a flat head from being left on my back alot as an infant. I was the youngest of five so I imagine everyone was too busy to hold or reposition me much. 🙂
Such a beautiful baby. ❤️ So nice to see your updates. I’m glad your getting some recovery and rest.
Your looking amazing having a newborn xxx :) your children are gorgeous. Zander is so loving and polite especially with Lexi :) What an amazing family to help you do those flower beds, they will be lovely in the weeks to come xxx
Awe that precious little sound Lexi was making ❤️❤️ , Praise the Lord she passed her hearing test ,I think she favors your husband ,I think it’s so cute when Zander pats her on her little noses ❤️❤️ your flower 🌸 beds looks great ❤️❤️
I loved how the baby was starring at Nolan! Zander is still fascinated with her sweet, little nose!
The ladies did an amazing job. It is good that Lexi is such a good baby. It does take time so still take it easy.
I love how Lexi was swaddled - she looked so content and cozy! You and your little family are precious!
So nice to see how much loving support you have! Lexi is a doll, baby!
My husband's sister is 5 years younger. She grew up adoring her brother. He, on the other hand, like Xander, remembered the "good ole days with much fondness. Lol! They haved shared many similar interests and talk weekly. It's an interesting sibling dynamic being 5 years apart, but they're quite close.

Your new baby is so precious! I love your flower bed! Your nieces done an awesome job!

That's interesting! I think they like it better!
OK, as long as everybody’s fed and has a place to sleep, call it good, Jenine. You are doing a great job.
Lexi is Precious! Xander is doing well with baby Lexi. Glad you’re doing so well! Take care of yourself!
Bless him Zander is doing great, its a huge adjustment after having you both to himself for so long. The little baby snores were so cute. Breast feeding will help shift the baby weight , the body stores the calories in anticipation but dont cut back too much. sending love and prayers your way
Thank you! I hope it does! 😀
You and your husband are blessed to have two beautiful children.
Oh Xander. He's a sweetheart. With some very normal thoughts about wanting things to go back to the way they were. Lexi is a darling baby but I think you are handling the issues perfectly. It will change of course with every stage Lexi goes through. Both kids will be just fine. I got a lump in my throat when daddy was holding his little girl and she was looking up at him. Precious beyond words.
Continual change 😀 yes she already has her daddy wrapped around her little finger! 😀
She is absolutely perfect. God bless you and your little family. Continued prayers for her to continue to be as easy as she is.
I was the same way with the flat head deal! My 1st grandbaby I taught my daughter. I also made sure my daughter could swaddle. Motherhood is so amazing!
Good for you! What would we daughters do without our mothers? 😀
Zander will adapt with you two as his wonderful parents!!
I love that you just turned your flower beds over to your very capable nieces...so wise to delegate that task so that you could focus on your sweet babes Zander and Lexi! :D
Such a blessing to have nieces help you out with your flower beds. They did a wonderful job. Boy mom of 2 and 1 girl here and I must admit my boys never slept and ate all the time, especially my oldest who was a boy. I didn't think I would ever sleep a full night again LOL then my 3rd came a long and it was my daughter everything was so easy with her.

Thank you for sharing your family with us. Be Blessed. God is good!
that's so interesting! I was wondering if it was a boy vs girl thing. Boys being hungrier so much more. she sure is a breeze so far in comparison! Thanks for sharing!
Be kind to yourself, its only been a min since you had her. You look beautiful and blooming. X
Your children are adorable! Glad you are taking time to rest. How wonderful to have family near by. Flowers look great.
Oh Zander is so cute!!!!! 🥰
She is so precious, and Mom, you are looking wonderful! You are lucky to have your Mom and family nearby to help you out. Relax and enjoy.

Awe, you are doing so good! Nice to have family to help! Your flower bed looks so nice! You all as a family are going through an adjustment. It can be trying at times but it's so worth it. Zander looks at her with so much love for her. I could see it when he sat with her on the couch.

love this! I will try it. Thank you!!!
What a beautiful baby and Zander is a great big brother. Your flower bed is just beautiful. How blessed you are to have nieces who help you with that.
You are so fortunate to have your family so close, my mom had passed and my other family was so far away so I basically was on my own. She is so precious
I'm sorry 😞 that makes it hard!
Great update! Some of her expressions really looked like Nolan. I know it's early to tell, but there are glimpses. Hope things keep going well.
You have a beautiful family.

I'm sorry to hear that.. 😥 so hard to lose a loved one!
Thats the same thing i did with my 2 sons when they were newborn babies roll a blanket put behind there lil backs n head and always rotating them lexi sp adorable beautiful baby girl
Oh how wonderfully blessed you are!!! Enjoy every second , both the easy or hectic, good or "bad". 🙏🙌👏
I’m glad you’re feeling better getting well life is very busy with little ones , many blessings to all of you 🤍🤍🤍
I have 3 daughters in their 30’s and I put a rolled up blanket behind their backs too, and they were fine. :) I was afraid they would choke if they spit up. :/ I believe you are a very good mom!!
I agree! To me lying on their back seems like such a choking Hazzard
I told my babiess dr that I put a rolled up blanket behind because my oldest has bad choking episodes from being a preemie and she agreed with me to do so! It scared me when she'd choke and flat on her back made no common sense 🤷🏼♀️
You have a beautiful home. Your family is so sweet. Much love to you all on your new family addition. Don't worry about weight. You just had a baby. You look great. God Bless.☺
Xander is such a good big brother. It's so sweet how Lexie looks at you and Nolan. She knows who you both are. The pics look so sweet. So proud you treated yourself to getting flower beds fixed. They are beautiful. Love your sweet family. So glad to see this video.
Your nieces did an amazing job ,you can definitely tell that they are professionals
Xander is so sweet with his sister , they are just so adorable 🥰
I feel for you and Xander’s sleep routine. It was a whole year before I got a full night’s sleep. It was awful
Hi, Jeannine :) I told my husband as we watched, "I'll try to spare her another story of how similar I feel that her birth story continues to be....but golly it's hard!" Once again, the connection here is a fun blessing. After our daughter Mia was born, joining our firstborn Zachery (who I've said is just SO much like your Xander...) then almost 3.5 yrs, I was all set to be sleep starved etc and it just didn't happen. Zachery would eat every 2 hrs on the dot, usually every 1.5 hrs beginning his hunger cries...so when Mia kept sleeping I was like, "wow, is this for real?" I really don't have to explain it any more as your description of Lexi & Xander was like me telling about Z & Mia, flashing back to the year 2000 when we brought her home tht Sept!! Often I'd joke and say, it feels like we just went thru the newborn stuff one time...instead of two times.
Isn't it neat how God reveals such different and uniquely special character in each of our children?
Mia continued to be pretty calm and more well... "still"..and Zachery was our enthusiastic dinosaur 🦕voice presence. What a joy it was to have some of each.
I love what Xander said about girls bring cuter and how Lexi was even the cutest at that.
Precious🥰😇
I love how they swaddle babies now. I never knew about that but I do remember friends doing the rolled blanket sometimes. Our son liked to lay on his back constantly but our daughter preferred sleeping in her bouncy seat or car seat. I know tht probably sounds uncomfortable but she was so happy to be snuggled into a compacted area. If only I'd known about swaddling. I wonder if that's why her head turned out so beautifully round 🤔Interesting..bc she was often not smack dab on her back.
God Bless you all and I'll continue to pray for continued good health for you and the whole family as well.
Try not to focus on getting the weight where you want it to be, it will all happen in good timing although I know it was tough going through that and those feelings were definitely valid! We seem to just be hard on ourselves. We are truly our biggest critics but you are beautiful and, blessed with wisdom ❤at your young age 😉
Thank you for sharing these priceless moments of your lives. Makes me feel like yesterday was just 2000.
Love & Hugs! Julie
P.S. My husband thinks the channel is called. "Xander." Because he must miss our little guy at tht age more than he'd like to admit🤭
Ahh Thanks for sharing! I enjoyed reading this! They did so similar lol. I agree with you! It just dies not feel like I have a newborn it's been so much easier this round. I'm still waiting till she changes her mind and decides to do newborn things 😀
Y'all are amazing parents. God has blessed talk with 2 beautiful creations your son and daughter. Special gifts from God. The love y'all have is such a blessing and your nieces did an amazing job with the flowers and it brings out the beauty to y'all's home. God is blessing y'all abundantly
