Can we just take a moment and appreciate that you showed a house that looks real on UA-cam! Thank you!!! I’m kinda sick of seeing absolutely too perfect homes making me like dang these folks must wake at 3:30 am to have a house that “Better Homes and Gardens” ready by 7am 😳😔
Totally, I feel better just to see I am not alone with the problem. The other thing which "got me going" is when they clean the already super clean houses and surfaces and stating: Sorry guys, it is such a mess. #whaaaat :)
I would love to see you sit down and walk-through/explain your weekly planning routine, if you haven't already done a video on that. (Do you start with goals, priorities, reviewing the last week?) Also, I'd love to see you break down your general weekly "flow" ie: Planning day, family day, laundry day, grocery day, cleaning day, etc.
God’s gift to my mother was organization, boundless energy, and the need to accomplish. I felt that she rarely had time “to just be with me”. She was always doing. She did not listen well to her pain and her later years her pain ridden. Her joints and bones just gave out. She also had many children. In this video, you mentioned pain twice. Having watched many of your videos, you share but for you to say pain twice, I think you should listen to yourself and practice “loving, self-care” for you and your babies, both born and especially those along for the ride, your unborn. I truly care and I am not judging just listening
I think that's because she's pregnant with twins. That must hurt a lot, especially when you have other children who need attention as well. Thank God she has people around to help her! And she did talked about relaxing and how important that is to her. I love the part when she said she could listen to some podcast but instead she decided to talk and interact with the children. That shows what productivity really is. What a accomplishment that is! But I get what you're talking about, bc my mom is exactly like yours! She's only dealing with her health now, so that's a warning for us. I get that.
My mom was the same, ALWAYS going, and she passed at age 58. Never got to meet her grandkids... I take it as a lesson to myself to slow down and take care
Me: 14 July 2020, 11:49am. Jordan makes the bed in 30 sec, so it can be made any time during the day. I went home after work, the kids made my bed messy. The room looked overall messy. Made the bed in 30 sec. Felt so nice and energized. Felt You near me talking on and on...Love You Jordan. Thank You that you are here with me.
I’m almost 20 with a baby and my dream is to have a big family but I thought it would be too difficult. You give me hope that it’s possible with planning, discipline, and budgeting. Thank you for sharing your amazing tips and being so open on the difficulties and pains of a busy mom!! You’re an inspiration!!
@Nuj I think it's all about setting small time aside per day for each one, plus as they grow they need less attention since they become more independent, from what I've heard.
I had my first child at your age and had my last one at 34! 2.5 years ago. I got a STEM masters and had a very good job later on, but it’s not necessary at all to spend a ton on kids. Folks play that up to scare you and discourage us from having them. You will be fine 🙏🙏♥️♥️
I want a big family too. I often think that having a big family is chaotic and I won't have enough time but as the children get older and children love to help, they will and want to help with the younger ones. So by the time you have your 4 child or more you have little mini helpers. Love big families ❤️
Such an inspiration! I have two children and I currently work full time while trying to keep a semi-ordered home...and at the same time working on my passion project to help me stay home more....your tips are invaluable to me!
So cool to see that my chaotic messy house and attempts at having structure and tick lists (and only half of the items geting done) is normal. My favourite part of the video was when you and Bubba were catching up together on the couch. Such a special intimate moment between the two of you - so lovely to see the normalness of your marriage and the way you are always connecting with each other and prioritizing time together
Jordan, u and I are very alike. A natural gift of organizing and making things fit into place. Do you ever feel like each day is a rush around or do you feel that you are getting to stop and enjoy the sweet moments of life. It may be that videos are so condensed and sped up its hard to see you sitting and soaking in the sweet moments of your life. I hope you are being pampered with those twins on board. I pray God helps u thru this twin pregnancy and we have some healthy little babes. U are blessed and gifted. Thanks for sharing your life with us!
I don't care what anyone says. You are super mom! I love how much you can get done while I sit and complain away about my tiny family life and work life lol. Thank you so much for all your videos! I simply love your channel.
YIKES....Jordan even in my prime & not being pregnant with TWINS....I could never survive a day in your life...U R simply Amazing..Wanted to thank you for the all informational videos, love seeing what you guys & kiddies are up to...Thank you for sharing your life with us...Wishing you all a Blessed Christmas & All the Best in the New Year..
Your videos are so amazing because you share the khaos and keep it real. It makes the end result, seeing your schedule and productivity that much more epic! You watch these day in the life videos other moms do and its annoying because everything is so perfect its all staged and unrelatable. Thanks for being authentic, its so much more helpful and enjoyable! 😊💓
I love Thursdays! Always keeping an eye out for your videos! I don't find many UA-camrs that I like so much, but omg you. You are so energetic and quirky and just so relatable!! Thanks a bunch, keep it up! Be blessed! ♡
Your block system has been a life changer for me! My stress is less, my tasks are getting done, I feel slightly like a human being again! Thank you for this amazing idea!
I have 7 children and my New Years resolution is to be extra organised, I’m binge watching your videos atm to prepare ( my kids will be pleased ) lol 😂 You have some great ideas, tips and hacks, appreciate your content and all the hard work that goes into making your content 💐
Hi Jordan, I use you as a motivation every day! I start one of your videos and say to myself “ok you can listen to Jordan if your working during the video!” I challenge myself to get a task done before the end. Motivation, Timer, and the reward all in one! 😁 you’re the best!
Love your expertise! You know what you are doing! I’m in chronic pain, and here is a quick thing I do to manage my joints. 5 min on the hour I stretch and move my joints. Great for performing during microwave time! It has helped my energy greatly.
I have one year old twins!! I can’t believe how much you get done in a day! I was on my butt the entire last two months of pregnancy 😂 I can’t wait to see your videos and how you adapt with twins! It’s soooo different from having a singleton but I’m sure you will love it 😊
Girl you are such an inspiration. It’s amazing seeing how much you do and how positive you stay while tired and hurting and pregnant 🤰 I love your videos, and will support your channel until the end. Now, I’m gonna go clean something! 💪🏻
Love the tree, my husband and I let the kids (we have 9 🥴🤪) decorate since they were little, it helps and they love it still. Your family is beautiful and glad to know someone else isn't perfect in keeping a totally clean house 100% of the time, thank you.
Let me just say you’re amazing 😉 people underestimate how hard it is to stay on top of things just by a glance I’m talking from a family of 6 and It’s hard you go girl 👍👍
Productivity tip: your husband/partner can and should be putting in some work to maintain the household. learn to hand off a few chores: he can hang the washing or load the machine. He can unpack the dishwasher (since they can't pack it... Properly 😋) learning to let go of some of these chores we put on ourselves will make you happier and you can spend more time with your partner and not resent them cause you're working and they're sitting. 😊
One thing I love about you is that your so generous with your content. Everything is given for free if someone wants to compile everything on their own. That said, I paid for both the bootcamps because they really help walk you through everything, but you don't HAVE to buy it to make huge changes in your life.
We have two of the light bulbs! We only have natural lighting un our living room so we use lamps. There is plenty of light during the day, so we have the floor lamps set to turn on at sunset, and turn off at 11 pm. Absolutely love them!
Very helpful ! I have watched your block planning video multiple times. I never really grasped how to set up my blocks until this video. Keep up the good work.
I’ve always lived by the microwave rule. You can get the counters wiped or kitchen sweeper or dishwasher loaded in the time it takes you to reheat a meal!
We are a family of 5 going on six, so I have 5 cups and 5 plates. We all take turns washing them . #1 rule is you need a cup or a plate ,its dirty wash it😂 💘 your video's by the way.
This is almost too terrible to mention, but if it helps one..... 3 years ago my then 22 year old son was working out of state and we got a call at 11 pm that changed our world. He worked night shift and on the way to work was in a terrible accident and we had to drop everything and drive 5 hours to the hospital where he was. We spent a week in the trauma unit. Now I was one of those people that put things off right down to I will "wash my hair tomorrow", the dishes, the laundry, packing for work, bathing the dogs, etc (not knowing that due to staying in the hospital with him for a week, someone or several someone's would have to come into my home eeeeek go through my drawers and find clothing and toiletries to send to me and my family. Trying to tell someone to go through 5 sizes in my closet to send me things that I needed was rough. People generally think their life will just go smoothly, but there are unplanned bumps in the road for everyone and when you least expect it. So now when I think about procrastinating, I think about that night and how well planned do I wanna be if my world should change all of a sudden. Fear and regret can be a good motivator.
I dont even have kids at home anymore and my life isn't quite so busy but I absolutely love watching your videos! I take the tips that I can apply to my life as an empty nester. I would love to see something on motivation maybe, that's my problem I guess is how to just do it when I have the time instead of waisting time. Or how to just get started with a good routine and habits. Thanks for all your content, I enjoy it so much!
Love the video. Good to see you take care of yourself, carrying twins is hard work! I’m a mom of 4; 9, 7 and 3yo twins. Taking time to relax in the evening is só important instead of keep going all day long. Try to let yourself take Some more rest, you are só busy all day and you’re in pain, listen to your body ❤️
Jordan your family is the most organised I've ever seen....Your always on top of everything your such a fun happy go lucky person your such a true inspiration to us all..... Love watching your channel it's the best ❤👍❤
I feel ya on the my whole body hurts thing! But to me that indicates I might be pushing myself a little too hard and sometimes need to just sit down and prop my feet up for awhile, of course im only carrying one baby not two!
That open drawer at 11:09 bugged me the entire time😂😂😂! I would LOVE to buy a planner!!! I'll be starting school in January so I will be getting on that email list 😘💚
I try to watch all of your videos and sometimes when i have down time i rewatch and tonight i rewatched this one and its so crazy that just 4 months ago the youngest was just learning to take steps with his walking toy. Now the twins are here and hes practically running! 😄
I used to do chores by commercial. You get a ton done. And during the shows is when you fold laundry, clean the room the TV is in, feed the babies (they were babies back then) etc.
Your definitly a queen of productivity and budgeting... thank you! I Am wondering your thoughts Jordan, on how to manage with twin babies, without spending on more help, to get enogh sleep, ect. in addition to the must haves of 2 newborns, and still keep smiling...
I just tried the microwave principle. I was able to empty my entire dishwasher in less than 2 minutes. Something that in my mind always took at least 20 minutes and my biggest dread of the day. It was an eye opener. I would love to see how you use those 2 dry erase calendars in your kitchen, homework time for kids (when do you do it, right when they get home?), and day in the life of kids (I'm not sure if i'm balancing homework, play, social, electronics, relax time well enough for them). LOVE Your channel!!!
Hi Jordan I'd love to see a video showcasing how you stay productive at home with little kids at home! I have days with either my baby or toddler or both with me and it feels impossible to get anything done! Thanks!!
Great tips! I try not to let things pile up in the car, I often come in with an arm load of whatevers....school stuff, snacks, toys, books, coats. Keeps the car tidy ☺
My advice for all mothers and families...have a cleaner/maid come even every other week. It saves SO MANY UNNECESSARY ARGUMENTS and stress! Find someone and pay them 12-20$ an hour depending where you are, for a few hours and it’s the best money you will ever spend! It also stops it from becoming so overwhelming when things pile up....they can deep clean too so you can manage day to day. That’s my best advice from being a mom going on 18 years.
I love that idea. I've been a mom for only (almost) 4 years and it would be tough for me to do that. I don't feel like other people clean the 'right' way or the way that I like. Maybe I just need to chill out and let it go. LOL
So many helpful tips. I came from a large family. I’m the youngest of seven. Almost eight but the last baby was still born. Congrats on the twins!!! Beautiful family!
I talk about Jordan and Bubba like my next door besties. Lol...yes my hubs knows I'm crazy. He doesn't always like to watch the videos. But I know he would enjoy the GE products and setting it up to his phone. So, I sent him the video and pointed out where he should start the video and watch. Thanks Jordan and Bubba.
I watch all your videos!!! I'm a mom of two boys and I work full-time and I feel like I'm in constant chaos! Your videos have helped me so much and given me so much inspiration
I have been hooked on your videos. I love them. I find it funny cause a lot of the things that you do I have been doing for years. I just recently became a single mom and have realized how wrong things were cause my ex would get so mad at me for trying to have some organization in our lives, especially for our kids. I hope someday I meet someone that I can be productive in life with. Thanks for the great videos!!
Very helpful and encouraging! I'm not naturally an organized person either but I really try to keep a tidy home. I did download the block schedule and am trying today! Thanks so much!
I have a 3 drawer cart that is labeled Monday through Saturday (each drawer holds 2 days) that I use for my boys’ clothing for the week. I lay it out on Sunday afternoons for the week, so much easier in the mornings before school! I also make a week’s worth of school lunches on Sundays (or at least plan them out) for each child. Both of these tips make for smoother mornings here!
I have 4 kids ages 20,13, the last 2 are twins also! We only had what we really needed for the twin's arrival. They shared the crib until 10 months old. We had a double Arms Reach Co-Sleeper bassinet to playpen (holds more weight than the other brands) that we kept in the living room for naps. That way noise and light didn't keep them from napping. This is the first youtube video of you I have watched. Previously, I have watched your segment on a morning show. I am surprised by some of the same time hacks we use. I need to rewrite more challenging chore lists. I keep mine in a plastic pocket so the child can check it off and I can change them out. I'm fighting 3Neg. Breast Cancer and my kids routines, behavior, and the house never really getting clean is stressful. I delegate, but get pushback.
Thank you for all of the tips! You are one of my favorite you tube families!!! What do i do to keep my families house tidy(or somewhat😂)? Both of my kids are in school between 12:20 -2:45 so i use the time they are there to power clean. Wipe down surfaces,load the dishwasher with morning dishes and lunch dishes(we have a kindergartener and a preschooler) and clean the potties. We have good systems in place for other parts of the day too. My husband is great keeping up with his zones which really helps! Nothing is perfect and things do happen sonetimes to throw it off track. Hope you are all doing well!
Can we just take a moment and appreciate that you showed a house that looks real on UA-cam! Thank you!!! I’m kinda sick of seeing absolutely too perfect homes making me like dang these folks must wake at 3:30 am to have a house that “Better Homes and Gardens” ready by 7am 😳😔
Courtney Jenkins I agree 1000% 😀👏👌👍
Totally, I feel better just to see I am not alone with the problem. The other thing which "got me going" is when they clean the already super clean houses and surfaces and stating: Sorry guys, it is such a mess. #whaaaat :)
100%
Amen!!!
I watched a video where a girl said she mops every night. I stopped watching right after that statement. Can’t relate.
Your suggestion of not leaving a room empty handed is something I've ALWAYS done and you are so right it makes you so much more productive!!!!!!
It really does!
Yes I'm never empty handed, especially if I'm going from one floor to another!
@S Freeman I feel ya, can you imagine then if you didn't do this with such a busy household? We'd be buried alive!😂🤣
I do that too, but I end up carrying stuff around and forgetting what I originally left the room to do! Lol!🤪
Would love to see how you’re getting your home ready for the twins!
Yes def would like to see that
I would love to see you sit down and walk-through/explain your weekly planning routine, if you haven't already done a video on that. (Do you start with goals, priorities, reviewing the last week?) Also, I'd love to see you break down your general weekly "flow" ie: Planning day, family day, laundry day, grocery day, cleaning day, etc.

Comimg from someone who carried twins, you gotta stay active so you do not swell or develop preclampsia.
I think this was a really sweet way to voice your concern!
@@hayleyalexandra9468 thanks
My mom was the same, ALWAYS going, and she passed at age 58. Never got to meet her grandkids... I take it as a lesson to myself to slow down and take care
I love the energy in ur videos....everytime I watch one I want to get moving...
Great video I love that you put prayer as a top priority for your children

Just a few months left!
I don't care what anyone says. You are super mom! I love how much you can get done while I sit and complain away about my tiny family life and work life lol. Thank you so much for all your videos! I simply love your channel.

I absolutely love any day in the life videos that you do. Just seeing how much you achieve in a day and how organised you are is so inspirational.
You changed my life, now I help my mother and our house is very clean and we save a lot of money, thank you!
You're looking so good, Jordan! Tired, but always smiling. I loved this video. Hugs from Norway.
Your videos are so amazing because you share the khaos and keep it real. It makes the end result, seeing your schedule and productivity that much more epic! You watch these day in the life videos other moms do and its annoying because everything is so perfect its all staged and unrelatable. Thanks for being authentic, its so much more helpful and enjoyable! 😊💓
I love the little increments of time with as little as 60 seconds. Thank you for these great tips to keep up in the cleaning.
Love your complete transparency. You’re such a blessing to all ❤️
I love Thursdays! Always keeping an eye out for your videos! I don't find many UA-camrs that I like so much, but omg you. You are so energetic and quirky and just so relatable!! Thanks a bunch, keep it up! Be blessed! ♡
Aww thanks for the love, Brandi!
Love your videos . My 2 favorite that you mentioned that I do is break up tasks and never leave a room empty handed .
Your block system has been a life changer for me! My stress is less, my tasks are getting done, I feel slightly like a human being again! Thank you for this amazing idea!
You’re such an inspiration. I’m struggling with 1 baby! You’ve taught me a lot and I love your attitude❤️
You've got this!
Jordan Page, FunCheapOrFree Hey I feel special lol. Thanks for the encouragement!
MadeleineQ your capacity grows with each stage of life 💕. You’ve got this!
Honestly just having one baby is the hardest because there are no other kids to distract and play with them!
I have 7 children and my New Years resolution is to be extra organised, I’m binge watching your videos atm to prepare ( my kids will be pleased ) lol 😂
You have some great ideas, tips and hacks, appreciate your content and all the hard work that goes into making your content 💐
natalie smith I binge watch all of her videos too lol nice to know I am not the only one
Hi Jordan,
I use you as a motivation every day! I start one of your videos and say to myself “ok you can listen to Jordan if your working during the video!” I challenge myself to get a task done before the end. Motivation, Timer, and the reward all in one! 😁 you’re the best!

Your kids are so adorable. Congratulations on your twins, you are almost at the finish line hang in there. You and bubba are so sweet together. 😍
Girl you are such an inspiration. It’s amazing seeing how much you do and how positive you stay while tired and hurting and pregnant 🤰 I love your videos, and will support your channel until the end. Now, I’m gonna go clean something! 💪🏻
So glad I'm not the only mom who does her daughter's hair in the kitchen :)
Love the tree, my husband and I let the kids (we have 9 🥴🤪) decorate since they were little, it helps and they love it still. Your family is beautiful and glad to know someone else isn't perfect in keeping a totally clean house 100% of the time, thank you.
I have started your tip not to leave the room empty-handed. It really helps to tidy up space at home really quickly. Thanks, my Productivity Ninja.
Love love love these type of Day in the Life! Watch them when I feel overwhelmed cleaning my house
Oh I needed these reminders. I took a break from the video to sort and wash all the laundry and to do a quick 15 minute tidy up.
Like the idea let the kids decorate the tree for Christmas
Oh my goodness I can not WAIT for that planner it looks amazing!!!!
I love the blocks system. I NEED THAT PLANNER!!!!!
Let me just say you’re amazing 😉 people underestimate how hard it is to stay on top of things just by a glance I’m talking from a family of 6 and It’s hard you go girl 👍👍
Productivity tip: your husband/partner can and should be putting in some work to maintain the household. learn to hand off a few chores: he can hang the washing or load the machine.

As a mom to 4. My days look like yours. Spurts throughout the day make a huge difference
Seeing you two in the couch at the end made my heart happy😭💜
It is so refreshing that you let the kids decorate the tree! I will take a crazy kid decorated tree any day over the tailored theme trees.
One thing I love about you is that your so generous with your content. Everything is given for free if someone wants to compile everything on their own. That said, I paid for both the bootcamps because they really help walk you through everything, but you don't HAVE to buy it to make huge changes in your life.
❤️
I love that you are so transparent! Just amazing how you manage your life! :)
Did a little happy dance when I saw you uploaded! 😍 You go mama!
💃🏻
I love that you let your kids decorate your tree. Don’t get me wrong I love these trees people go all out on but I think your kids should do the tree
I can't belive i didn't know about you. I love that you show such a real life. Thank you.
We have two of the light bulbs! We only have natural lighting un our living room so we use lamps. There is plenty of light during the day, so we have the floor lamps set to turn on at sunset, and turn off at 11 pm. Absolutely love them!

I’ve always lived by the microwave rule. You can get the counters wiped or kitchen sweeper or dishwasher loaded in the time it takes you to reheat a meal!
So true!
Spending a few minutes mapping out the day is the key. Can't wait for your planner release!
Omg a real house!!!! Thank you for being real and making me inspired to get super organised for 2020!
I'm 29 and mine and Pryia's to do list is basically the same😂 #simples
😂
We are a family of 5 going on six, so I have 5 cups and 5 plates. We all take turns washing them . #1 rule is you need a cup or a plate ,its dirty wash it😂 💘 your video's by the way.
YES!
Yes! Good for you, she could simplify and minimize the things in her home to increase productivity.
youareminealways we also do this. We have a box of extras in the basement for guests.

Taking time to relax in the evening is só important instead of keep going all day long. Try to let yourself take Some more rest, you are só busy all day and you’re in pain, listen to your body ❤️
Jordan your family is the most organised I've ever seen....Your always on top of everything your such a fun happy go lucky person your such a true inspiration to us all..... Love watching your channel it's the best ❤👍❤
This was very motivational, especially seeing how much you got done while pregnant with twins!! You are amazing!
I feel ya on the my whole body hurts thing! But to me that indicates I might be pushing myself a little too hard and sometimes need to just sit down and prop my feet up for awhile, of course im only carrying one baby not two!
This is just what I needed to motivate me to get some cleaning done before bed!
So glad you are sponsored! You earned it. Love watching you Jordan!
That open drawer at 11:09 bugged me the entire time😂😂😂! I would LOVE to buy a planner!!! I'll be starting school in January so I will be getting on that email list 😘💚
🙌🏻
I try to watch all of your videos and sometimes when i have down time i rewatch and tonight i rewatched this one and its so crazy that just 4 months ago the youngest was just learning to take steps with his walking toy. Now the twins are here and hes practically running! 😄
Great video. Can't wait until your planner is released will be buying that! I would love to see a cupboard tour in your house somewhere xx
I used to do chores by commercial. You get a ton done. And during the shows is when you fold laundry, clean the room the TV is in, feed the babies (they were babies back then) etc.
Can’t wait for the planner!!
Your definitly a queen of productivity and budgeting... thank you! I Am wondering your thoughts Jordan, on how to manage with twin babies, without spending on more help, to get enogh sleep, ect. in addition to the must haves of 2 newborns, and still keep smiling...
I just tried the microwave principle. I was able to empty my entire dishwasher in less than 2 minutes. Something that in my mind always took at least 20 minutes and my biggest dread of the day. It was an eye opener. I would love to see how you use those 2 dry erase calendars in your kitchen, homework time for kids (when do you do it, right when they get home?), and day in the life of kids (I'm not sure if i'm balancing homework, play, social, electronics, relax time well enough for them). LOVE Your channel!!!
I needed this video, I’m always looking to be more organized ❤️
Hi Jordan I'd love to see a video showcasing how you stay productive at home with little kids at home! I have days with either my baby or toddler or both with me and it feels impossible to get anything done! Thanks!!
Love your energy, as always Jordan. Your vlogs are always fun and realistic. You really are a momma productivity expert!
Great tips!
I try not to let things pile up in the car, I often come in with an arm load of whatevers....school stuff, snacks, toys, books, coats. Keeps the car tidy ☺
My advice for all mothers and families...have a cleaner/maid come even every other week. It saves SO MANY UNNECESSARY ARGUMENTS and stress! Find someone and pay them 12-20$ an hour depending where you are, for a few hours and it’s the best money you will ever spend! It also stops it from becoming so overwhelming when things pile up....they can deep clean too so you can manage day to day. That’s my best advice from being a mom going on 18 years.
I love that idea. I've been a mom for only (almost) 4 years and it would be tough for me to do that. I don't feel like other people clean the 'right' way or the way that I like. Maybe I just need to chill out and let it go. LOL
Omg that planner looks like something I will acuatlly use! 😍😍 I never knew how much I perfer it
Life with a new born is chaotic, I cannot plan my life, my baby does all the planning for me and I love it.
It sure is chaotic with a newborn! It's always tough to plan then. The first few months are usually more about baby!
Thank you! I think your great! Because of you I am learning to switch from hard copy calendar to google on my phone! huge for me! Happy Holidays!
So many helpful tips. I came from a large family. I’m the youngest of seven. Almost eight but the last baby was still born.
Congrats on the twins!!! Beautiful family!
I talk about Jordan and Bubba like my next door besties. Lol...yes my hubs knows I'm crazy. He doesn't always like to watch the videos. But I know he would enjoy the GE products and setting it up to his phone. So, I sent him the video and pointed out where he should start the video and watch. Thanks Jordan and Bubba.
you are literally supermom! i want to be like you when i grow up! lol!
The bit I love most was you two catching up xx
I watch all your videos!!! I'm a mom of two boys and I work full-time and I feel like I'm in constant chaos! Your videos have helped me so much and given me so much inspiration
I have been hooked on your videos. I love them. I find it funny cause a lot of the things that you do I have been doing for years. I just recently became a single mom and have realized how wrong things were cause my ex would get so mad at me for trying to have some organization in our lives, especially for our kids. I hope someday I meet someone that I can be productive in life with. Thanks for the great videos!!
So glad you found us! Sounds like we're twins! So sorry that your ex made it difficult for you. ❤️
Very helpful and encouraging! I'm not naturally an organized person either but I really try to keep a tidy home. I did download the block schedule and am trying today! Thanks so much!
I have a 3 drawer cart that is labeled Monday through Saturday (each drawer holds 2 days) that I use for my boys’ clothing for the week. I lay it out on Sunday afternoons for the week, so much easier in the mornings before school!
I also make a week’s worth of school lunches on Sundays (or at least plan them out) for each child. Both of these tips make for smoother mornings here!
Great idea!
I have 2 kids a I don’t have my life together nearly as much as you do with 6 kids and pregnant with twins. 💕 thanks for inspiring me to be better.
I have 4 kids ages 20,13, the last 2 are twins also! We only had what we really needed for the twin's arrival. They shared the crib until 10 months old. We had a double Arms Reach Co-Sleeper bassinet to playpen (holds more weight than the other brands) that we kept in the living room for naps. That way noise and light didn't keep them from napping. This is the first youtube video of you I have watched. Previously, I have watched your segment on a morning show. I am surprised by some of the same time hacks we use. I need to rewrite more challenging chore lists. I keep mine in a plastic pocket so the child can check it off and I can change them out. I'm fighting 3Neg. Breast Cancer and my kids routines, behavior, and the house never really getting clean is stressful. I delegate, but get pushback.
Awesome tips! Thanks for the idea about the automatic switches. Interesting way to schedule your day! Your kiddos are so cute!!
I'm so excited to get a planner when they come out!!! 😀
Wooow! You made everything look so easy!! You are such an inspiration!
God Bless You....I am exhausted just watching the video. You are a very selfless person and a great mom and wife!!
the cutest part is when the hubb is rubbing her tummy and shes smiling at him at the end of the night serious couple goals
I need a nap after watching this 🤣 you go girl!!! My word/theme for 2020 is PRODUCTIVITY
Thank you for all of the tips! You are one of my favorite you tube families!!!
What do i do to keep my families house tidy(or somewhat😂)? Both of my kids are in school between 12:20 -2:45 so i use the time they are there to power clean. Wipe down surfaces,load the dishwasher with morning dishes and lunch dishes(we have a kindergartener and a preschooler) and clean the potties. We have good systems in place for other parts of the day too. My husband is great keeping up with his zones which really helps! Nothing is perfect and things do happen sonetimes to throw it off track.
Hope you are all doing well!
Looking good.. cant wait til the twins are here.. we love you!! Thank you for being an inspiration
I love your block schedule planner. More productivity videos please x
