Confused? LONG STORY SHORT:
My name is Jess! I had a daughter (Lilia) at age 18 w/ my high school sweetheart. We mutually split up & co-parent to this day. I met someone new, got married, had twin boys (Kyson & Kaden) and another son (Landen). He cheated, we split ways, & he’s not around much. After juggling life as a single mom of 4 for some time, I met Chris, he had 2 sons: Caden and Tommy, who eventually became my step sons. After Chris and I got married, we had our 7th child together, Addelyn. We’re one big, complicated, blended family & every second of our story is on UA-cam, you can start from the beginning here: • 8 Weeks Pregnant!
FAQ: Yes, we’re done having kids.
FAQ: Names and ages of the kids: Caden (step son, born in 2009), Lilia (daughter, born in 2010), Tommy (step son, born in 2010), Kyson (son, born in 2012), Kaden (son, born in 2012), Landen (son, born in 2014), Addelyn (daughter, born in 2016)
FAQ: Who are the dads? Gabe (Lilia’s dad), Drake (Kyson, Kaden, and Landen bio dad), Chris (Caden, Tommy, Addelyn’s dad)
So happy for Landon, . The bond that Mimi has with all of the kids is priceless. They have so many people that love them.
i love how excited mimi was for landen when she found out that he got his own phone!!
You have 34 likes btw
I love that you set up parental controls to set up your kids for success. I think it’s amazing your trusting them to do the right thing and now just having them have free control, because it can lead to bad exposure at such a young age. I wish more people knew about this!
I never needed parental controls for my phone as i'm an adult
I feel like you are making such an amazing decision about when they get a phone.. you and your family are always running around and you know how to handle all of it SO well! I hope I will be this good of a mom! ♥️♥️
I’m normally against being super controlling of your kids and what they can and can’t do with their new phones you’ve chosen to give them, but I’ve never seen someone do this do perfectly. I love it. It shows how much you care and how important these things are to keep your kids safe. Will definitely have some barriers for when my kids get their first phones (if I have kids).
Happy for Landon He deserves it he’s such a sweet kind responsible little young man and I can’t believe he’s growing so fast🥹💗
i love how excited mini was for landen when she found out he got his own phone u have amazing kids
You’ve done such a great job in keeping your kids humble & grateful for all major gifts, they always get so excited 🥹♥️
I love the parental control and everything you set up. Some people may say it’s extreme but the internet isn’t a safe place for kids. I honestly think 13 is a little young (social media apps ask if you’re 13 or older.) That’s around the age kids start to care about what their peers think of them. It’s not bad it’s a normal thing. Like become important and they try to change themselves to fit in. Many girls I know have developed ed because of what people say to them about their bodies. And sadly there are also dangerous adults out there. I wish people were more aware of how dangerous the internet can be back when I was your kids ages. At the time I felt like I was so old and was ready to be part of the real world. I look back and think how wrong I was. I barely even knew what taxes were😂 Also the internet/social media can be very addicting. Most kids choose playing on their devices over going outside and it’s not good for their developing brains.
Agree 100%
The internet is not safe for anyone but I have parental control on my 16 year old daughter 🤷🏻♀️

You have a point but my first phone was at 7. Granted it was an htc pink phone with very minimal internet capabilities but still.
@@abbystephens9766 I think kids should have phones, especially when they are in sports/activities. I just think they should wait a little bit to allow them to have access to the internet. My first phone was a flip phone which didn’t have data/internet access at all.
We have laws in place telling us how old you have to be to be able to drive, drink, smoke, gamble, s3x. But we have nothing for the internet and that blows my mind.
I wouldve appreciated if I did have the limitations growing up but I now know the best way to take care of my kids. I love the way you do it because you’re not those overbearing and lowkey controlling moms. They’re young and innocent and I can tell how much you care and love them all
This is awesome how you have everything set up. The Internet is a scary place nowadays. If my kids had phones I would do the same. I love how happy Landon is. And I also love the bond Mimi has with the kids and how close you two are. 💕
Why couldn't you wait to give him a phone after the teen years passed? I got my phone at age 22
The phone details are SO HELPFUL! Thank you!!
Aww it was so cute when Mimi was like ‘you got a Phone! So cute love this and I totally respect your decision on getting your kids a phone💗🤍🌼💛💗🧡 love ya
Thank you for posting it’s been a rough week (especially today) nobody had posted and I really needed to decompress so you posted at the exact right time.
Hi Jess. I love watching your family because it’s so relatable and so real. You show us the real struggles of being a mum of 7 and your never embarrassed sharing the truth or getting you kids in trouble becuase it is EXTREMELY realistic. I just love how much I can relate to your family and I hope you always continue to make awesome content.
You are such a great mom and I know all you kids love you
I havent been on youtube in almost a decade its amazing yet sad how fast your kiddos got so big !!!! You haven’t aged one bit !!! Not even your husband or mom you guys look great!!!
I am so grateful you shared the child safety iphone features. Thank you so much!
I’m a Cali girl in Arizona!!! Come on Landen!! We can float down the salt river and see all the wild horses ❤❤
I love the idea of taking your children to different countries as long as they are willing to put in the work to learn enough of the language to get around. 💗 I was fortunate when I was growing up because my mom went to university in France so we’d go to France and Europe during summer break. I have been Tokyo but not the rest of Japan yet. I love to travel and learn about other cultures and it would be a wonderful way for your children to start to learn another language and then be rewarded with being able to immerse themselves in the culture while on holiday in the future. 💞
Or use google translate when traveling but respect the culture
Landen was so happy! My family goes for Android and we get our first phone in 9th grade and it is a gabb phone which is very very very very protective and I don't have one yet.
I think it great that you did this. These are your kids to make choices for but thank you for sharing your story to help the rest of us out.
Hey Jess I took pictures of my teeth with each tray change and saves them in a album to compare week to week, it was so fun to see the changes. I also ordered the custom wires after and the Invisalign retainers.
this is so good im so happy for him, it does to a lot when they have after school activities. its scary for a kid and ofc a parent when you cant get ahold of eachother
Hi Jess! I’m sure the orthodontist told you this but maybe not. Invisalign has the numbers of the trays printed on the back teeth of the trays so they are easy to figure out what trays are what number! 😊
Thank you for going through all that at the end, we just got our ten year old her first “phone” watch and it’s incredibly locked down and simple…she can call and text mom and dad and that’s it. I know however the next step is a real phone and this info makes me feel way better about that!
I would love a full in depth video on setting up the parent controls we are getting our 8 year olds phones for Christmas!
Why so soon?
Oh my word I thought I knew everything on the parental controls for apple and you just had me enter a whole new world of what I need to do for my girls' phone's!! Lmao. Thank you!!!!
Just curious, are they becoming teenagers?
Omg! Thank you for all the parent controls info. Super useful. I will be adjusting my kids iPads today!
You NEED to take the boys to DisneySea adventures in Tokyo! It’s their own Disney resort as well as having Disneyland! It’s for sure the best Disney park there is!
You seem so similar to me with limits to apps, etc. We have the same rule about the internet with my eldest (she's 12) but what I have on Android (Google family link) is option to access the internet but each time she searches a new page, it comes through as a request on my phone that I have to accept before she can visit it which is awesome!
such a lovely boy and so sweet well done to you both wonderful parents xx
Japan is on my bucket list!! I hope I can go one day!! With all the good food they have I feel like it’s becoming a popular place to want to travel to now.
I didn’t get my first phone until I was able to pay the bill myself, and purchase the phone. That was also 15 years ago, and we had a landline. Our first baby it’s due in less than a month, so when the time comes, we will definitely look into it!
We’re in AZ now, have been since June. I really miss Colorado!
Speaking of Japan, Disney in Japan is amazing (and the foods are amazing)! You should definitely visit, more Disney Sea than land tho, the land one is kinda old, tbh! Anyway so happy for Landon!
Thank you for setting parental controls, when i was his age i had a phone and i was exposed to so much things. I had a app and i met someome who was wayyy older than me and we would talk all the time and they would ask me for personal
stuff .My mom set up parental controls and i still have them to this day (no appstore, allowed websites only) and it can be annoying but its better than nothing.
I love how excited Mimi was for landon
i feel your making right decision. my friend her girls are like 8 and 11. they were having issues on the bus. i think they were getting lost etc. so their mom bought them phones so that they could call their mom or any family member if something happens. its ok for kids have phones for emergency reasons. i didnt get my first phone till i was in 11th grade though. an old flip phone but that was in like 2005 so. i never liked iphones but its good they have parent control stuff on it . my coworker had no clue iphones had feature that u can set to turn off your kids phone after certain time. so she wants to learn how to do that to her sons phone so hes not on it after certain time lol
This was a sweet yet informative video. I think this is really going to help a few parents out there. ☺️
OMGGGG do a girls trip to Paris once they're both a little older!! I went in 2019 and the entire trip is such a core memory now.
You know I used to hate this feature on iPhone but I do kinda like it now because I find myself spending more time with friends and family and not on my phone. It also helps me when I am doing homework. It is annoying at first lol but as I get older I get the need for it :)
Are Lilia’s restrictions different from Landen’s ? If so could you show us how the restrictions differ with age?
Thanks for the phone restrictions information! My oldest son(8) is wanting a phone. Im waiting a few more years but all this security and privacy phone stuff was super helpful! Lots of Love from NC🤗💜✌🏼
Awe! I'm so excited for Landyn! Congrats Young Man!
Verizon also has Verizon Smart Family which can limit how much data is used when not connected to wifi, limit specific people to be contactable & track their location. Find My iPhone also has that feature though, the tracking. I hope you’ve got multi device protection or AppleCare+!
yes we love a mom that dosent let her 8 year old on tiktok
Not one who has a 12 year old only watching pg movies an on yt kids 😂
We are currently stationed in Japan, absolutely love it. We have been here for 2 years and have 1 more year left.
I for one would love a tutorial on how you set up the kids phones!!
I think kids are to young to have phones intell high school all parents do is have the kids with phones but I know your a good mom and what your doing is what's good for your family
With all of the stuff going on in schools these days, I think it’s ridiculous that kids DON’T have cell phones. There have too many shootings and other things happening to not have them. Plus there’s kids who have chronic medical issues. And if they’re not near their parents they need to have some way of calling 911 if they need to.
Thank you for showing the controls on his new phone.
My sister got her phone when she was 3, she's turning six this December. Just one of my stepmoms old phones and she's only allowed to call immediate family like me and our mom for example. She's not allowed to answer calls from numbers that aren't in her contacts. She doesn't have rules on social media because all her accounts are private and so she doesn't need to ask before posting. Only I, my other siblings, and our parents and grandparents have access to follow her social media accounts. However, she often uses our phones when hers is charging and in that case she has to ask before posting because my other sister and my Facebooks, Instagrams, and tiktoks are public. My other sister being 15. Lucky kid, I was 12 when I got my first phone and was only allowed to call mom and dad.
I love that yall care about there kids but just for me personally I hope they give there kids there privacy as they become teenagers but i love yalls family so much
fr! i understand when they are kids that u can be in their privacy but when they get older they grow up and become teens they back off
Hey, I’m guessing one of the main reasons lillia wants to go to Paris is go to Disneyland Paris. Keep in mind that dlp is actually about an hour away from central Paris. I’d recommend that if you look into going you do a few days in central Paris and then stay closer to dlp and do a few days at Disney.
I wish the vlogs are longer I love watching them
yes do a in depth video on this please
Japanese is one of the hardest languages to learn I’ve been told. And as someone who’s lived there they are taught English in school and are some know it. Plus they see an American and flip it to English menu in my experience lol. Loved it there I plan to take my family one day. Knowing the language isn’t a need though to travel. I hope they get to go!
Learning a new language is always a challenge, japanese is actually not hard and it brings you many benefits, if you learn the language you can learn Korean super fast, Chinese is a whole different story hahaha (I'm a polyglot) i think it's great Jess gives them motivation because in the long run, learning a new language is one of the best things they can do
I’m doing German
Lmao! I live in Arizona! Just make sure to come in November or march-april. Most beautiful time here! But we do have beautiful lakes and camping spots here! Payson, strawberry, Workmen creek! Beautiful places!
So excited jesssfam I just wanted to say that your vlogs is amazing and you are amazing Supporter
Landen congrats on your new phone buddy!
And yes I'd love just a video on how you have the phones setup and if you know someone that's got an Android I'd love a link to a video or someone just comment someone I could go watch. Thank you Jess and Chris on what you showed about the iPhone
You two are wonderfully responsible parents. Good Job from this old lady…
LOVE YOUR FAMILY AND. VLOGS
I had no idea that a second language wasn’t staple in all public schools. I live in Massachusetts and have been required to take a second language since 1st grade along with all the other schools around here
Edit: In elementary school everyone did Spanish but once we got into middle and high there’s been more and more options
I'm in mass and didn't learn another language as a requirement til grade 7.
I live in MA and second language doesn’t start until middle school in most schools.
@@kloughman100 oh, all the public schools I know of around the Boston area have it
Arizona is actually so cool! Thanks for a great video! 😁
I put on screen time, really helpful. And downtime. Downtime doesn’t let you use social media apps only messages
ur guys are the best parent
Thank you for making this video on the restrictions on the iPhone!!
Why not gabb phone or a flip phone it’s a phone for kids then you don’t have to worrie as much
U guys have the cutiest intro ever
Definitely interested in a video all on phone security for kids!!
Very informative! Had no idea apple had all these controls! I feel so much more comfortable getting my oldest a phone now!!
I don't know what your orthodontist recomended for Kaden, but I switch my invisalign at night so if theres tightness and pain I sleep through it.
I think this idea is awesome! I would love to learn every language! ❤
Put your location to share with Landon. And share his with you. So you know where he is. But calling is good too. And he can do you and Chris or Mimi poppy for emergency contact. You can do a contact for bypass
My kids are getting iPhones for Christmas I NEEEED the whole parental control video!!!
If the kids are as old as these kids they should not be getting phones way to young
@@MTBMatty1237 ypu parent your children and I will parent mine. 😉
My son just got his first phone (iphone) I didnt even know how to do any of this!! Thank you for going over it!! I been trying to figure it out!
I would also get life360 on your kids phones or the apple air tag too
100% I have that app and it’s great especially for travelling ❤
I’m 23 and have that app too haha
Oh please come to Japan!!! I live here for over ten years and speak fluent Japanese 😍 it's an amazing country, the boys would LOVE it (I have two boys myself 😊).
I love that the sentiment to use iPhones are parental controls, even though Family Link on Android is way better then what you get on an iPhone.
I have been to Japan. Most of the time there is English signs everywhere and there is a ton of people that speak in English in Japan.
I'd have to say that even if there is a lot of english, you should learn at least basics of any country that you visit where your native language is not their language - Not a scold, just basic manners and my thoughts.
Only one left! You have a little bit until Addie will need one though.
Jess come visit Arizona! I'm here in Tucson and the boys would LOVE to run around mount lemon here! There's cabins to rent up there and everything!
I live in Arizona it so much fun you should go to Sedona if you go
Hi wow i never know iphones have sooo much features thanks for the update if i ever get a iphone
coming from a 15 year old native to arizona, you do not wanna come here😭😭😭 theres literally nothing special and the water parks SUCK😣 the only thing remotely cute is downtown scottsdale but that’s still pushing it
I don’t think you should put screen time on your kids phones. They are older and if they want to be on their phone long as they want to then they can so don’t do it.
hey jessss!!! i love you and your fam!! have a famtastic day!!
Is everything with the parental controls the same with the other 2 kids? Obviously some things but are they all the same considering there are bigger age gaps with the the younger kids
Gosh this reminds me of when that momo thing was going around on the internet. My cousin had just got his phone and my aunt was terrified he would come across a video or something. So I had to teacher her how to use parental controls even though I didn’t really know them either 😂
They say you should switch them at night Jess so if there is discomfort you sleep through it haha If he starts to have discomfort you can do that!
This video was actually so informative THANK YOU
Love this, never knew all that info on the iPhone. My kids are grown but my sister has trouble with her daughter with the phone
Yeah iPhones have lockdown parental controls.
I love you can you Do a 24 hour trip one again
Jess you’re truly amazing ❤❤
I really appreciate the fact that you said that you didn’t know much about android instead of just saying it didn’t have anything. Haha. But yeah android has all that stuff too, but it is more difficult to figure out, especially if you’re used to apple 😂😂😂
I love Jess and the fam but, I really wanna know how much their phone bill is 😂
I do wanna say there is a loop hole for getting past asking your parent (child who has had parental controls) i went searching on UA-cam and i found that if you make a new apple id account you dont have to ask, clearly landen wont be able to make his own new apple id account but some of your older kids might, so if there is a way you can make it so you cant log out of apple id without permission i highly suggest it😊
Yess Landon Arizona is the best and it cooled down a lot since you were last he here in July I think!
What phone is it just wondering and how did u decided he was ready
Why no screen time on Sunday?😊
💗Your such a great mom!💗
