  • Well folks it's official! Started the build on the MINION Bus today.
    With the Big Bus engine blowing up I am not sure when it will fixed or when I will see it again.
    I need a bus and we need a better living situation so we are gonna build out this little 4 window which was the original plan in the beginning.
    Designed this layout with our baby on the way in mind.

    Hi Isaac. Glad I'm still around to continue watching you and Jaylena. Just an update on me. I made it through my cancer surgery. Today I'm at home recovering and cancer FREE. No radiation or chemo needed. The tumor is out of my body.
    I thank GOD everyday for giving me my life back. Now on to bigger and better things to do. Now I can enjoy watching you and Jaylena and soon Ember. I can't wait to see you're daughter. Love to all of you and you're entire combined families. 💕

    Yeah , it’s a good transition in the short term to build out that bus and do the big bus later when the baby is older . As long as you have a place to put the car seat and have Jalena sit as well , plus the shower / toilet that’s all that needed . Once the baby is older , you can either keep that bus or sell it when you move into the big bus . My mom would alway say , “This too shall pass and it will all work out in the end . “ Trust the process of your journey.

    • @Infinitepossibilitiesat56plus
      @Infinitepossibilitiesat56plus 2 роки тому +4

      Maybe you can somehow add an attachment to the back of the bus ( like a tunnel )to use when you guys are stationary and then you would back up the two buses together end to end and connect them so it’s one big bus anyway ??! Then you would drive separately, but have buses combined together when needed . It would probably be the combined size of a big bus anyway.

    • @Infinitepossibilitiesat56plus
      @Infinitepossibilitiesat56plus 2 роки тому +2

      If you put the two buses together and connected them with a walk way then it would be easy to have one bus be your master bedroom and Ember’s room would be in the peach . Maybe you could then make the bathroom bigger in your bus because there is already a kitchen in peach 🍑

    You could build the benches like the one in Jaylena's so you can pull out one to join both benches and make a really big bed for when Ember wants to sleep in mommy and daddy's bed, it's inevitable so might as well get use to the ideal! Lol

  • @rossallen738
    @rossallen738 2 роки тому +1

    Something that I think would make the back bed area more usable and more convenient would be putting the bed on a manual pulley system with the benches and table permanently fixed. That way, you don't have to assemble the bed every time, and you don't have to assemble the table. The bedding can stay on the bed while the bed is up on the ceiling.
    Just an idea! Something I wish I had done in my build for sure.
