The best thing my dad did once I got married and had a baby was to never ever make us feel guilty about spending time away from him. He always said we should worry about ourselves first and not worry about sharing time. That automatically made us want to spend MORE time with him and maybe less with those that made us feel bad!
I was married young and did Christmas with everyone for years. Especially now that you have a baby keep the holidays to your family. It’s so much less stress and you can enjoy your little family more. After 16 years I’m finally doing that and I don’t actually dread Christmas this year for the first time ever.
Super useful parenting tip I was once given…If the baby is being exclusively breastfed (no formula, baby food, or “real” food) then the sun can remove poop stains! Every time my babies had a blow out during the first six months of their life, I’d just hang their clothes out in direct sunlight. Always worked!
@@MattandAbby hello matt and abby! i had a comment about 2 questions! but then i saw that same telemarket official matt and abby account just letting you know! ❤
Your son is the cutest! His little giggle is so adorable! I can’t believe that your husband can be so respectful to you and to his son, and your son looks like you Abby! Matt is such a great man to you!
@@kristennelson2480 In the video we mostly see Matt with Griffin so.. And usually father's are better with older kids and also usually father's work "normal" jobs when they're not a youtuber :)
I have the same problem when we go home for the Holiday's. I finally let the family know that I was going to be at Grandmom's house all day Sunday. This was the best way to have a stress free holiday. Love the channel.
Griffen isn’t just a darling baby, he’s a beautiful baby. You two leave me breathless w/ all of your energy & projects. 300+ thank you cards? No addresses? I’d run away from home! Not you, & then having to put up w/ Matt acting silly while you try to keep writing.! I admire your diligence & patience. You go Girl!
I hope people see your channel & hold on to their first loves like you did. Nothing else could ever compare. Ride the ups & downs but always ride it out. Have 50th anniversaries, grandchildren, extended family. Stay together no matter what.
That’s very sweet and might work out for some. But people can change so much from teens to adults, first love isn’t always meant to be. And that’s ok too.
Griffin is always a happy baby. Shoutout to Matthew James And Abby Howard for being really great parents to Griffin at a yuoung age. You guys are like a charm being a cute couple together
Abby you look amazing for giving birth only 5 months ago! I love y’all so much and y’all make my days so much better when I watch y’all! Y’all are amazing parents and have such a cute baby! Love y’all
I love y'all as a couple so much! You're both so wonderful with Griffin in different ways. Currently breastfeeding my 6 week old son and realize that my husband is amazing for helping where he can!
Dear Matt and Abby, Y'all are no joke the BEST parents I've every seen I cannot believe how much griffin has grown and I love being able to watch him grow up with y'all he's just so stinking cute and y'all do amazing parenting and y'all are very cute couple too 🥰💕
I can imagine parenting already being hard but we really appreciate that you guys do the filming part as well so that we get content. Best wishes from India 🇮🇳 and a Happy Christmas to y’all!
Griffin looks so much like Abby! He’s so freaking cute!😍😍 My 2 boys had screen time before 18 months and they’re fine! Of course it wasn’t for hours a day but here and there for a couple of minutes. They don’t have any delays and are doing really well in school. They are social and speak very well😁
Seriously if you don't really know about Matt and Abby then whenever Matt gets into daddy's mode there's no way you could've tell that he's actually a first time Dad, you guys are doing such a wonderful job for being first time parents 👌🏽💯👍🏼❤
I understand the trying to please the whole family. We spend Thanksgiving at home with just our family unit. Having one holiday just for us was an important boundary for us to set. Everyone survived.
I love how at 9:13 Matt looks like he is still in high school. Just shows me (an older teen) that you don’t have to be so oldish to have a nice family.
I wasn’t sure which one of you looked more like griffin, but now all I can see when I look at him is a little Abby! The nose, eyes, everything! Cute boy definitely took after his cute mama☺️❤️
Love you love you love you love you love you so much you guys are amazing and your family is so beautiful Abby is a wonderful woman and Matt is a wonderful man you guys are in a perfect example of what people should aspire to be you guys have a family that's not broken it's a beautiful thing to see wish you guys nothing but the best love you guys and your baby is so stinking cute
I'm from St. Louis, too. Loved finding your channel. It's so great that your parents are flexible. Makes Christmas and other holidays so much better when parents are understanding.
i strive to become a mother like abby. i pray to have a husband like matt. someone so forgiving and apologetic when he recognizes his human mistakes to ensure love and compassion for his family. id say they are pretty damn close to being perfect
Matt and Abby are doing an amazing job with being parents. They work as a great team! Griffin is also such a great baby. Great job being such a great team! 🫶🏻
While getting my masters in psychology one of the things I learned was that “traditional marital roles” end with the woman taking on WAY more responsibilities, things are not split evenly, and it ends in a ton of martial dissatisfaction and unhappiness, obviously mainly on her part.
A little advice when u put griffen in his little chair and he almost cured and u picked him up it’s better if he crys bc he will get used to being in hands and then he grows and he gets bigger and heavy u can’t anymore but Ofc if u wnat and love yall 💞 (I’m a mom on 4kids)
Griffin is one of the CUTEST babies I’ve ever seen!! Not just saying that. Also why do I feel like Matt is talking in a baby voice with his L’s in this whole video? Haha You guys are awesome.
Oh sweet kids, I am feeling your stress!!! You are both in the move tho. In the meantime griffins smile melts my heart🤗. I do have to hand it to Matt, you do have a cool take on multi tasking shug. Poor Abby's immune system is having a hard time. I'm so glad you are such a good team. Merry Christmas and love to the 3 of you and your families. Can't wait to start the new year with you!!!!👍💕🤗🤗🤗
Okay, for real, you guys should totally get TSA pre-check!! My husband and I travel a lot too and it is a LIFESAVER! I was kind of annoyed about it originally because it took time, but it has been so worth it.
When you left the terminal in St. Louis and it was 30 ° that was aheat wave, St. Louis was -6° with a wind chill of -32° just a few days later, so I'm guessing you were in St. Louis to enjoy that arctic cold. I know you are missing your warm Arizona weather. Later this week it will be in the 50's so hopefully you will still be in town when it warms up. Have a good visit with your family.
Developmental specialist here!! Screens occasionally is totally ok! Especially with an educational show like ms. Rachel. As long as griffin isn’t sitting in front of it 24/7. A half hour- an hour a day if you need to get something done is perfectly fine.
Little man is growing up so fast. I love watching your videos, you are such a cute couple. You are both very good parents its really neat to watch your family your always so positive. I hope you have an amazing Christmas.
My Family likes to get to the airport about 3 hours before, just to be safe! Cause then once you’re there, you can relax and just be hahah. Loving your videos, guys! So entertaining!
The way they look after griffen looks like they have been parents before the way that they look after him while vlog looks so stressful but at the same time they show that parenting can be hard and amazing at the same time(sorry if this dosnt make sense)
You can go to Staples and do tsa precheck! It takes about 10-15 min per person and you can do a walk in or make the appointment online! It’s $85 per person and lasts for 5 years! It’s so worth it!
Matt has the sweetest parents they drove all the way to the airport to pick them up how nice most parents wouldn't.
The best thing my dad did once I got married and had a baby was to never ever make us feel guilty about spending time away from him. He always said we should worry about ourselves first and not worry about sharing time. That automatically made us want to spend MORE time with him and maybe less with those that made us feel bad!

It’s definitely important to know it’s okay to say “no”
I love how Matt leaves Griffin on the floor outside the bathroom and proceeds to call him "bro". Matt is doing great 😂
He’s a chill baby 😎

Works like a charm!! 😁
Also, regular blue dawn dishsoap, scrub it then throw it in the wash

Works with formula fed babes too! At least with mine.

Your son is the cutest! His little giggle is so adorable! I can’t believe that your husband can be so respectful to you and to his son, and your son looks like you Abby! Matt is such a great man to you!
Can we appreciate Matt for being an amazing father, and a respectful , attentive husband at the same time?!? 🎉💯
The only reason it deserves praise is because it’s unfortunately rare
We already do appreciate him though...

I'd love a video of just Griffin laughing and smiling. He's so cute.
This is one of my favorite videos of your channel. Griffins smile is the best and it looks like you all had a good time.
Omg Griffin has gotten so big! He's so darn adorable!!! All them big smiles! Merry Christmas to you guys and your family!!!
Griffin keeps getting even more adorable!!! His cooing had me cracking up!!! Happy holidays Matt, Abby & Baby Griffin!!! 💗💗💗

I love Griffin’s parents. They’re awesome 🥰
