I hope you find it! I was blessed beyond measure to have parents that were soul mates. I don't even really believe in soul mates but there is zero doubt in my mind they were meant to be together. My entire life they never once fought,they put each other and us kids first, they were just like 2 puzzle pieces that clicked together. They spent all their time together and genuinely enjoyed one another. Sadly after over 30 years of marriage, my dad passed away 4 years ago. My dad was home on a ventilator the last 8 months of his life and my mom and I were his care givers,I still live at home despite being an adult due to also having chronic health issues. My mom said had they spent the next 30 years with her being his care giver she would have been happy and fulfilled and I have zero doubt that that's true. Even only being able to mouth words and have limited mobility,they still enjoyed each other while he was still here. She could have left him at the nursing home he was at but she literally said there is no way in hell I'm leaving him here! And he would have done the exact same for her without question. I,and the rest of us,can only hope to have a fraction of what they had someday.
Beautiful family. Family goals ❣️ Did you try a syringe 💉 medicine thingy to get glass out. Not with the needle in it. Just try to suction it out. Seen a video about it.
My daughter has slept through so many “medical procedures” by her dad and I… trust me… it’s the way to go! Heck I used to cut her bangs while she was asleep, I have dug out ingrown toenail’s nails, and removed splinters… super momma moments 😂😂😂😂😂
I’ve already commented this but: I think a lot of us would enjoy an All Colleen Live Show sometime in the near future. Especially us Vlog-watchers. I know I would buy tickets. We love Miranda, but Colleen is pretty great too.
Erik comforting Colleen and stroking her hair while Colleen telling us the story, was so adorable and sweet, Colleen and Erik are such amazing parents ! Edit: TYSMM GUYS FOR ALL THE LIKESS
I want a play-by-play account of when Flynn wakes up in the morning and comes running in to you! “Momma!! Momma!! My foot doesn’t hurt today!!” Can’t wait to hear about this. Also, MAISY LOVES FLYNN SO MUCH!! I love her little face when Flynn comes around. She’s his biggest fan. Lol. I’m so happy for you and Eric. Great parenting moment! You have to celebrate the little wins along with the big victories!!
Tortilla talk question : I’ve asked this before but wouldn’t it be so cool if Erik took over the vlog for a day? Following Colleen & the kids around and seeing them in his perspective :3 ( only if he’d be comfortable Ofc )
Tortilla Talk Question 🙋🏼♀️ : Have you ever looked into Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome? It’s a connective tissue disorder that my children and I have. You and I had *identical* (awful) pregnancies and 99% of my symptoms were caused by EDS, most especially early and severe SPD - turning over in bed with SPD is literally the most pain I’ve ever felt in my life, and I’ve given birth to a 10 pound baby at home with no drugs, so I’ve been through some pain! EDS would also explain the fainting episodes you’ve had (electrolyte imbalance is an EDS issue) and your rotator cuff injury that has never fully healed. Many doctors know very, very little about it, so it often goes undiagnosed for years, or even decades.
OMG I’m gonna screenshot this comment, thank you! I have EDS and have only heard it can cause many symptoms during pregnancy, but really I can’t find any info on it!
@@Corn22 me too! I’ve honestly wanted to bring it up for years, ever since she started struggling with her shoulder injury, but I didn’t want to overstep. But, when I watched her endure every single pregnancy difficult that I also endured, I just had to say something. There’s currently not much that can be done for EDS, but knowledge is power!
Two things: 1. Erik’s farmers tan is incredible and 2. I looooooove the way he loves you. He’s just so sweet and you can just tell how much he loves you. 😍
TTQ: do you have any relationship advice or stories for us young ladies out here? I feel like our early twenties can be so overwhelming when it comes to dating and relationships. Love you!
My advice? How someone treats you now is how they will always treat you. So many young women think, oh he will mature, he will change, we will get better. But really it's rare that people change and if you're unhappy now and if there are red flags now, go ahead and assume it'll be like that always. Know your worth and find someone else who does, too
I was having one of the worst panic attacks I’ve ever had today and turning on your vlog made me feel better and helped me get a grip on myself again. Thank you for being there for us every day and bringing us so much comfort❤️
Colleen, it sounds like your dragon fruit wasn’t ripe enough yet, because it should have a slightly sweet flavor that tastes like a combination between a pear and kiwi (instead of tasting like nothing and having a kiwi texture). And congratulations on finally getting the piece of glass out of Flynn’s foot! 😱😍🙌 I hope that everyone is having a Happy Memorial Day weekend! 💗
Also there is a yellow dragon fruit, at least in Colombia where I live. in my opinion yellow dragonfruit is a little sweeter… but also makes you poop 🫢
Really? This is so interesting. I like dragon fruit and I always thought it just a tastes like nothing lol. I thought it was supposed to taste like nothing LMAOO.
As the eldest of 4 & now a mom of 2, let me tell you, I was In.Vest.Ted. in that glass-in-the-foot story & genuinely teared up & wanted to hug them afterward! I'm so happy for them, that they were able to get it out while he was peacefully sleeping & now he'll get to wake up & "magically" have no more owie in his foot!! 🥰🥰🥰
Mom Trick: Splinter removal- take one of the many syringes that you have from liquid medicine and cut the tip off. Then put the new hole over the splinter and suck with the handle of the syringe. Works pretty great! Hope it helps someone! 💖
Colleen also has “the bug bite thing” I wonder if that would work I was thinking about if that would have worked on the glass on Flynn’s foot before the skins grew over it obviously
I've had medical problems over the past few years and you really give me a brake from the pain. Maisie already reminds me so much of you, can't wait to see all your kids grow up!
TTQ: When you say you’ll “never be pregnant again” do you plan on getting a hysterectomy or tubes tied or erik getting a vasectomy or anything? i’d love to hear more about that bc i know other forms of birth control are not always 100% reliable
Just wanted to reply in case Colleen sees, I know it’s like maybe taboo to talk about but I really like talking about BC as well and would like to hear about this. A lot of moms don’t talk about it but like I really would like more peoples opionions on their BC methods of choice
I knew I’d have to have a c-section with my second pregnancy. My husband and I also knew that two babies would be it for us. I decided to have my tubes tied during my second c-section. It was the best decision for me and my family! My boys are now 19 and 21. No regrets!
there was this mommy blogger who decided to get her tubes tied after FIVE kids and she was ripped apart by other moms, it's such a sensitive subject when it doesn't have to be
Congratulations on your proud parents moment. Way to go. I love how Flynn plays with the twins and I love how Maisy laughs at Flynn. Too adorable. Of course Wesley is too cute. The other thing that is so heartwarming is when Erik cuddles with you and shows how deep his love is for you. Your love is amazing. You're such a beautiful family.
Tortilla Talk question: have you told yourself lately how proud you are of yourself? For everything? Not just for being an awesome glass shard remover, but EVERYTHING? I hope you see what I see. I strong, successful, kind, and beautifully flawed REAL human. Thank you for all you do and ARE! 💗
Ok this is hilarious. I've been wanting to post this on her vlogs for awhile, so I posted before even watching the vlog. and LITERALLY at 6:32, she says how proud of herself she is 🤣🤦♀️ I'm happy she recognizes that and hope she knows that about ALL areas in her life!
Watching colleens journey all these years has been so rewarding. You truly are a beautiful soul with a beautiful family and I wish you all the happiness in the world 💜
Such a stressor, I feel the relief you both had when you got the glass out. Colleen, this is just one of the many heroic things you have done as a mommy! Just your pregnancies alone were torture for you and you continued to march on day after day and then carried twins! Give yourself some more credit, your already a super hero! Hmmm, maybe a new character for you? The marvelous Miranda, Lol. Xoxo
Colleen, if you and Kory were to make a podcast with the two of you, I would for sure listen! I LOVE the one with Erik, but if you also had one with Kory, I feel like it would be really funny and interesting. Love your family, wish you all well!!
I’m so happy to see that you’re looking so much happier nowadays! Even with all the stress and lack of sleep, it’s so nice to see you in a such a better state than you were ❤️❤️
your natural waves /curls are just so gorgeous. i wish I had that texture. it's just so cute to see ur natural hair and ur cute outfits. honestly, even if u don't feel like it sometimes, ur always rocking life
Hi Colleen! So excited to hear about getting the glass out of Flynn’s foot! Amazing!! I know you already know this, but just want to highlight keeping the cut area super clean/bandaged! I had a similar situation with a small/deep cut on my foot. I didn’t think much of it, and when I thought it was healed I accidentally got some small particles in it which turned into an infection called cellulitis. (Not fun!) Sending my love, so awesome you got that glass out - you go mama!!
I thought of this right away since Flynn loves to play in dirt, I saw a bandaid on his foot yesterday in the vlog so hopefully she cleaned his foot and got him a new one ❤️
The glass in Flynn's foot reminds me of how when I was 10, I kicked a lightbulb while playing on my mom's bed and my dad got out as much as he could but missed some and a whole YEAR later, I had to get surgery and wear a cast to get all the glass out, absolutely terrible so good on you mom for getting it out!!!!
Thank you for sharing the glass on Flynn’s foot story ❤️ that is such a core memory for you and Erik as parents!!! Love you fam and all that you share from being pregnant. YOU ARE TEACHING VALUABLE THINGS HERE ✨
Congrats on the glass removal! Yea, you did it!! You are devoted parents who truly care! Glad all your work paid off! He will be so happy when he wakes up.
What a relief to get the glass splinter out !! I totally understand the relief of it all . Mother of three boys , my experience of splinters are stressful !!!! Well done !
I was completely invested in the glass shard story, that was actually amazing and to think that Flynn woke up to no glass on his foot! I wish i could see his reaction to not having to walk on his tiptoes again!
Omg yes! My dad would always take tummy slivers out in my sleep! The best thing ever - I didn’t have to feel a thing and they didn’t have the stress of me crying! Awesome job, Colleen!!
Love hearing you talk about this! I also have ADHD and pelvic floor dysfunction (I go to therapy/physical therapy for each) and it’s so nice to feel like I’m chatting with someone who understands
It is so nice to see how proud you were of yourself. I have had trouble believing in my self & working on my self but I am trying & can tell you are too! You should be proud & having kids is hard but it should definitely make you proud. Your blogs have been helping me so much & THANK YOU!!!
Colleen I am so happy that you are touring. I am mad scared about covid but I need to live. Breath and show the world who I am. You doing that is an amazing gift for you and your family. I hope you have moments of joy and the knowing that with everything you are rocking life.
Hey Colleen just wanted to let you know that about an hour away from wear you are preforming in Houston, TX there is a place for Flynn to play with his trucks. It is called Dig World and kids can play with trucks and I just thought Flynn might like it.
Omg i love your videos so much. When I see your post I smile no matter what is happening! Thank you for being so kind and supportive to all of your followers and Veiwers. x
Wes looks so much like you Colleen, Maisie and Fylnn are so much like Erik. I get so much joy from watching how you all interact with each other and the pure love you can see in your eyes when you look at your kids or when Erik looks at you. 🥺
This video is just so heartwarming and wholesome! I don’t know about y’all but I LOVE her videos!!! They are so addictive!(in a good way) 🙃🙃 love youuuuuu stay safe!!! 💖💖
I was at the Toronto show! The lady ended up taking only one blurry picture which sucks but I enjoyed the show so much! Genuinely was such a great night and just having a small interaction made you so much more... Human lol LOVE YOU!
I also saw her Toronto show!! best night of my life!! I only regret not waiting for her to leave the venue so I could be in a picture she took outside the theatre seeing her not on stage and outside would of made me life complete
@@christinamanweiler3541 at her shows Colleen has someone to take the pictures. You give her your phone and she will take them. Luckily I also got a video from the other person I went with however the pictures i was supposed to get was only one and blurry
everytime i’m in a bad pain episode if endometriosis and pelvic pain i turn on one of your blogs bc they are able to calm me down and distract me from the pain so i’m so grateful of a big creator talking about pelvic pain with pregnancy or otherwise :) ttq: have u considered tying tubes or discussing a vasectomy with eric? i think that might quell your fears of future pelvic pain. much love!!
tortilla talk q! have you and eric talked about vasectomy or more permanent birth control options? I'm just curious bc you talk about how much you don't want to be pregnant again and was wondering if you are looking into those options! I hope this isn't too invasive of a question, but with the whole roe v wade debate going on, I wondered if u had thoughts about it. I love you and ur family sm keep it up mama
I’ve seen so many comments like this and I’m SO curious. I’m not a mom yet (I’m only 18) and I know I want kids in the future so idk why I’m so curious about this but I am lol. But she also said that after she had Flynn so MAYBE her and Eric aren’t 1000% certain that they are done having kids even tho they say they are. I think that if they were absolutely certain that they didn’t want any more kids then they probably would look into something like that. I really wanna know colleens thoughts.
I love you so much queen. You are the sweetest kindest most caring amazing talented human ever. I could never thank you enough for all you have done for me in my life. You are the best mom ever to the sweetest cutest toddler ever with the biggest personality and to Wesley & Maisy. Erik is so loving supportive and encouraging. You are the most beautiful person inside and out. You have benefited my life in so many ways and have had such a positive impact on me. Thank you for making me smile daily and bring joy to my world. I truly don’t know the person I would be without you. I’m so proud of you and all you have accomplished in your life. There are no words to describe how much you mean to me and how amazing you are. Thank you for being the sunshine in mine and so many others life. Thank you for getting me through tough times and making me so happy. Love you to the moon 🌙 and back. 💜💕❤️💙🌻🍪💛🌵🐢🚗
Hi Colleen! Definitely Over sharing but I start pelvic floor pain this month after years of pain. Thank u for being so open about those doctors. Love u
About dragonfruit, you're right white usually has no flavour unless you get it from where it's grown. However, if you get red fleshed dragonfruit it has the texture you like and there IS flavour, it's sweet and tangy. You don't have to, do whatever you choose you do you, but you should try the red fleshed dragonfruit before deciding you don't like it.
TTQ: how is the nap schedule going? Do you still get time to yourself at all like you did a little while ago? The twins and Flynn are so cute and you’re amazing Colleen!
Thank you for your advice on SPD, currently 23 weeks pregnant and have had the WORSE pain since 16 weeks, find your videos n comments so amazing and helps to not feel alone with it all 💕
Hi Colleen, I struggle with anxiety and Ed and at this moment in time I’m on a trip away with my family I’m very anxious but I just wanted to say that this is the only thing that’s “curing” it rn. I love you more then words can say and you’re doing a amazing job no matter how hard it’s gets.
I get anxious on trips too. Being outside usually helps me and telling myself "i dont have to be here i choose to be here" to remind my brain im not trapped sometimes helps too. Also pepcid
@@giraffesinmypants I’m back home now was supposed to be back in Friday but I was struggling to much I did take your advice and say “I don’t have to be here I choose to be here” and it did work x
That is incredible!!! I am proud of you guys too!!! You 2 are super parents!!! I’m glad you shared the whole story that is really amazing! How relieving too. 😊
Tortilla talk question: who do YOU look up to the most? Is there any person/celebrity that has inspired u a lot? I would love to know! I love u guys so much❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕💕💕
I COMPLETELY understand how you feel about getting the glass out of his foot!! When my second son was 2, he got something stuck up in his nose. We didn't even know it was there until it started to stink! I took him to the doctor and they traumatized us both trying to get this little thing out of his nose. (we still couldn't figure out what it was at the time) They were hurting him, and we were both freaking out crying. The took exrays and all that too. They even set up an appointment for us to see an ENT specialist. But later that night once he was asleep, I decided I was going to get that thing out myself! I got some tweezers and a tiny flashlight and started digging. Finally I get it out!! It was a small piece of like a candy wrapper or something! I was calling myself Dr Mama for weeks. Lol ❤️
Way to go guys!! When my kids were young we did Elmer’s glue put some on splinter let dry and peal it off splinter comes out!! No I get it!! ❤️ been there
yayyy!! i am so happy ❤️ the day i had a tiny glass stuck in my foot, the day it finally got tooken out, was- ThE BeSt DaY Of My LiFe like omg, i cant imagine how Flynn handled that 💪 Tortilla Talk: How do you tell Flynn that he needs to go to the doctor? Do you keep it in disguise and slowly tell him, or straight up tell him “Let’s go, we’re going to the doctor!”?
good on you guys for getting the glass out!! i’d still recommend taking him back to the doctor one last time just to make sure you got all of it, but i’m glad he doesn’t have to be in any more pain :)
Haaaa yes !! I LOVE the glass shard story ! I’ve been there with that same situation! I was able to remove it and the RELIEF and JOY when it came out was life changing!!! Haaa I totally get it !
everytime you and erik interact together I smile. I want what you guys have... even more than that, I wish my parents had what you have.
I hope you find it! I was blessed beyond measure to have parents that were soul mates. I don't even really believe in soul mates but there is zero doubt in my mind they were meant to be together.

I’ve already commented this but:
I think a lot of us would enjoy an All Colleen Live Show sometime in the near future. Especially us Vlog-watchers. I know I would buy tickets. We love Miranda, but Colleen is pretty great too.
agreed!!! Perfectly put!
Absolutely!!
Yesss
The screaming teens is the only thing holding me back from going to her show 😆
It’s so true she doesn’t have to be Miranda to be awesome
A favorite quote of mine : “A worried mother does better research than the FBI” totally agree! You’re amazing Colleen!
Erik comforting Colleen and stroking her hair while Colleen telling us the story, was so adorable and sweet, Colleen and Erik are such amazing parents !
Edit: TYSMM GUYS FOR ALL THE LIKESS
Truly
Thats what I said too 🥰
Omg, when he stroked her hair and cuddled her 😍 died
I thought that too, it was so sweet to watch 🥺
If I were her I would have gotten the ick

LOL me sitting here envisioning Erik and Colleen crawling around Flynn's dark bedroom 😂
Colleen and Cory should do their cheesy re-enactment of it lol
I love how much detail u gave us I could literally picture it and picture u guys cheering after

Really? This is so interesting. I like dragon fruit and I always thought it just a tastes like nothing lol. I thought it was supposed to taste like nothing LMAOO.
There is also red dragon fruit which taste much sweeter than the white one in South East Asia.
Kiwi has always tasted like a bland kiwi to me, everyone I've explained that to has immediately understood lol

Your kids are so lucky to have parents that are so passionate and loving with each other :) it makes me believe in love!
THAT is truly an epic story about the glass… holy cow huge congratulations to you and Eric!!!
What a journey with that glass! I’m so glad Flynn can start recovering physically and mentally! ❤️
hope Colleen saved the piece of glass for the scrap book
As a parent you gave to celebrate every win because there will be fails…it’s inevitable 😘
Omg s true

Jane k I'm in pain bc I'm pregnant and i don't think I'm going to be strong and I'm scared now I'm crying
Everyday should be a proud moment. You have three of the most cutest children ever.
TTQ: Colleen what's your best advice for acting/the acting and film business? LOVE YOU!
The glass in Flynn's foot reminds me of how when I was 10, I kicked a lightbulb while playing on my mom's bed and my dad got out as much as he could but missed some and a whole YEAR later, I had to get surgery and wear a cast to get all the glass out, absolutely terrible so good on you mom for getting it out!!!!
I love how you are so real with us. I see how hard being a mom really is, you’re doing amazing!
Thank you for sharing the glass on Flynn’s foot story ❤️ that is such a core memory for you and Erik as parents!!! Love you fam and all that you share from being pregnant. YOU ARE TEACHING VALUABLE THINGS HERE ✨
I'm so proud of you!! That must have been so hard. You are a rock star mom!
Congrats on the glass removal! Yea, you did it!! You are devoted parents who truly care! Glad all your work paid off! He will be so happy when he wakes up.
I love seeing the interaction between Flynn and the twins
What a relief to get the glass splinter out !! I totally understand the relief of it all . Mother of three boys , my experience of splinters are stressful !!!! Well done !
I was completely invested in the glass shard story, that was actually amazing and to think that Flynn woke up to no glass on his foot! I wish i could see his reaction to not having to walk on his tiptoes again!
Omg when you were standing Maisie up next to your face she looked exactly like you!!
Omg yes! My dad would always take tummy slivers out in my sleep! The best thing ever - I didn’t have to feel a thing and they didn’t have the stress of me crying! Awesome job, Colleen!!
Love hearing you talk about this! I also have ADHD and pelvic floor dysfunction (I go to therapy/physical therapy for each) and it’s so nice to feel like I’m chatting with someone who understands
My daughter Blossom is over the moon as she was first one to watch this!! Love you xx
It is so nice to see how proud you were of yourself. I have had trouble believing in my self & working on my self but I am trying & can tell you are too! You should be proud & having kids is hard but it should definitely make you proud. Your blogs have been helping me so much & THANK YOU!!!
Omg I’m so happy you got that out of his foot! That was a funny story too of the dark with the flashlight! I’m so happy for you
Colleen I am so happy that you are touring. I am mad scared about covid but I need to live. Breath and show the world who I am. You doing that is an amazing gift for you and your family. I hope you have moments of joy and the knowing that with everything you are rocking life.
I remember watching single colleen vlog like yesterday and this is madness. Time really does fly so fast. I'm so proud of you sisturrr.
Maisy's love for Flynn is so adorable 🥰 He makes her laugh all the time!!
Hey Colleen just wanted to let you know that about an hour away from wear you are preforming in Houston, TX there is a place for Flynn to play with his trucks. It is called Dig World and kids can play with trucks and I just thought Flynn might like it.
Maybe because you guys had imported dragonfruit. I’m an expat in South China where they grow naturally and dragonfruits are TO DIE FOR. So sweet!
I’m so glad you got the glass out of his foot!! I’m sure that must have been frustrating for you both and especially Flynn!
You and Eric are awesome at whatever you both take on together. I'm so proud of you both. Your doing a great job!!
You are both pretty darn amazing.
Omg i love your videos so much. When I see your post I smile no matter what is happening! Thank you for being so kind and supportive to all of your followers and Veiwers. x
Wes looks so much like you Colleen, Maisie and Fylnn are so much like Erik. I get so much joy from watching how you all interact with each other and the pure love you can see in your eyes when you look at your kids or when Erik looks at you. 🥺
This video is just so heartwarming and wholesome! I don’t know about y’all but I LOVE her videos!!! They are so addictive!(in a good way) 🙃🙃 love youuuuuu stay safe!!! 💖💖
The glass in the foot story was the BEST. Genius! I was smiling the whole time.
I was at the Toronto show! The lady ended up taking only one blurry picture which sucks but I enjoyed the show so much! Genuinely was such a great night and just having a small interaction made you so much more... Human lol
LOVE YOU!
I also saw her Toronto show!! best night of my life!! I only regret not waiting for her to leave the venue so I could be in a picture she took outside the theatre seeing her not on stage and outside would of made me life complete
@@sharonmendel me too I saw that and got so sad :(
What do you mean the lady. You don't know how to take pictures?
@@christinamanweiler3541 at her shows Colleen has someone to take the pictures. You give her your phone and she will take them. Luckily I also got a video from the other person I went with however the pictures i was supposed to get was only one and blurry
If you have an iPhone and it’s a Live Photo you can move the picture around and find a better key photo where it isn’t blurry
Congratulations!! I understand your mom moment SO well! You did it!!!❤️
everytime i’m in a bad pain episode if endometriosis and pelvic pain i turn on one of your blogs bc they are able to calm me down and distract me from the pain so i’m so grateful of a big creator talking about pelvic pain with pregnancy or otherwise :) ttq: have u considered tying tubes or discussing a vasectomy with eric? i think that might quell your fears of future pelvic pain. much love!!
Love your natural hair!! Those large curls! ❤️ your hair has so much volume! So beautiful!!!
tortilla talk q! have you and eric talked about vasectomy or more permanent birth control options? I'm just curious bc you talk about how much you don't want to be pregnant again and was wondering if you are looking into those options! I hope this isn't too invasive of a question, but with the whole roe v wade debate going on, I wondered if u had thoughts about it. I love you and ur family sm keep it up mama
I’ve seen so many comments like this and I’m SO curious. I’m not a mom yet (I’m only 18) and I know I want kids in the future so idk why I’m so curious about this but I am lol. But she also said that after she had Flynn so MAYBE her and Eric aren’t 1000% certain that they are done having kids even tho they say they are. I think that if they were absolutely certain that they didn’t want any more kids then they probably would look into something like that. I really wanna know colleens thoughts.
She's amazing 🤩
I can’t believe the cuteness of how much the twins - especially Maisie love everything Flynn does. They love their big bro so much!
I love you so much queen. You are the sweetest kindest most caring amazing talented human ever. I could never thank you enough for all you have done for me in my life. You are the best mom ever to the sweetest cutest toddler ever with the biggest personality and to Wesley & Maisy. Erik is so loving supportive and encouraging. You are the most beautiful person inside and out. You have benefited my life in so many ways and have had such a positive impact on me. Thank you for making me smile daily and bring joy to my world. I truly don’t know the person I would be without you. I’m so proud of you and all you have accomplished in your life. There are no words to describe how much you mean to me and how amazing you are. Thank you for being the sunshine in mine and so many others life. Thank you for getting me through tough times and making me so happy. Love you to the moon 🌙 and back. 💜💕❤️💙🌻🍪💛🌵🐢🚗
Maisie loves Flynn so much! It's so sweet.
Tortilla Talk Question: Does Wesley laugh and react to Flynn as much as Maisy does? Love you
This is a great question!!♥️♥️
have u like not watched any of the vlogs...?
@@chareyguernnsey265 it's not, he does laugh as much
Hi Colleen! Definitely Over sharing but I start pelvic floor pain this month after years of pain. Thank u for being so open about those doctors. Love u
Regarding the dragonfruit, I'd recommend getting the yellow ones. Those are the sweetest ones of the 3 dragonfruit variety. :)
I love 💗 how much Maisy loves Flynn. So adorable
I love you and your not so little family so much Colleen!!! I've been watching for like 5 years by now :)
About dragonfruit, you're right white usually has no flavour unless you get it from where it's grown. However, if you get red fleshed dragonfruit it has the texture you like and there IS flavour, it's sweet and tangy. You don't have to, do whatever you choose you do you, but you should try the red fleshed dragonfruit before deciding you don't like it.
WE'RE PROUD OF YOU TOO COLLEEN!!! im so glad flynn can finally live in peace again hahaha
Listening to glass story was so stressful 😭😭😭😭thank GOD it’s out now
TTQ: how is the nap schedule going? Do you still get time to yourself at all like you did a little while ago? The twins and Flynn are so cute and you’re amazing Colleen!
Thank you for your advice on SPD, currently 23 weeks pregnant and have had the WORSE pain since 16 weeks, find your videos n comments so amazing and helps to not feel alone with it all 💕
Hi Colleen, I struggle with anxiety and Ed and at this moment in time I’m on a trip away with my family I’m very anxious but I just wanted to say that this is the only thing that’s “curing” it rn. I love you more then words can say and you’re doing a amazing job no matter how hard it’s gets.
I get anxious on trips too. Being outside usually helps me and telling myself "i dont have to be here i choose to be here" to remind my brain im not trapped sometimes helps too. Also pepcid
@@giraffesinmypants I’m back home now was supposed to be back in Friday but I was struggling to much I did take your advice and say “I don’t have to be here I choose to be here” and it did work x
@@Esmerelda4 glad that helped!! Hope you were able to enjoy your trip!!
That is incredible!!! I am proud of you guys too!!! You 2 are super parents!!!
I’m glad you shared the whole story that is really amazing! How relieving too. 😊
Tortilla talk question: who do YOU look up to the most? Is there any person/celebrity that has inspired u a lot? I would love to know! I love u guys so much❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕💕💕
I love seeing/hearing kory in the vlogs!!!
I would love to see Flynn reaction when he wakes up to you telling him you got it out!
I really needed a Colleen vlog today. Thank you for posting it!
I COMPLETELY understand how you feel about getting the glass out of his foot!!
When my second son was 2, he got something stuck up in his nose. We didn't even know it was there until it started to stink! I took him to the doctor and they traumatized us both trying to get this little thing out of his nose. (we still couldn't figure out what it was at the time) They were hurting him, and we were both freaking out crying. The took exrays and all that too. They even set up an appointment for us to see an ENT specialist. But later that night once he was asleep, I decided I was going to get that thing out myself! I got some tweezers and a tiny flashlight and started digging. Finally I get it out!! It was a small piece of like a candy wrapper or something!
I was calling myself Dr Mama for weeks. Lol ❤️
Flynn playing with the twins specially Maisy is the cutest thing everrr!!
Way to go guys!! When my kids were young we did Elmer’s glue put some on splinter let dry and peal it off splinter comes out!! No I get it!! ❤️ been there
Woo hoo!!! Amazing parents moment...🎉🥰. So glad you got it
**DON'T EVER MESS WITH MOM POWER! ** So glad you got it out.
I admire your honesty regarding your pregnancy with your babies and not sugar coating it. Every pregnancy is unique.
yayyy!! i am so happy ❤️ the day i had a tiny glass stuck in my foot, the day it finally got tooken out, was- ThE BeSt DaY Of My LiFe like omg, i cant imagine how Flynn handled that 💪 Tortilla Talk: How do you tell Flynn that he needs to go to the doctor? Do you keep it in disguise and slowly tell him, or straight up tell him “Let’s go, we’re going to the doctor!”?
Your excitement over this is everything lol. You’re such a super mom 💪🏽 love you Colleen 💞
good on you guys for getting the glass out!! i’d still recommend taking him back to the doctor one last time just to make sure you got all of it, but i’m glad he doesn’t have to be in any more pain :)
Haaaa yes !! I LOVE the glass shard story ! I’ve been there with that same situation! I was able to remove it and the RELIEF and JOY when it came out was life changing!!! Haaa I totally get it !
Maisy looks so much like little Bailey!! I think it’s the eyes and eyebrows, but also the facial expressions!
Ok! Surgeon Ballinger!!!
