Your baby is going to be the luckiest baby to have you two as their parents.
Aww thank you so much ❤️❤️
Here in Canada, my niece was a surrogate for a gay couple from France. We had a baby shower for them just before they took August home...it was a very special occasion and not one I will ever forget. Oh, I could give you tons of advice and blah, blah, blah...but love and being present is all that is needed so I think the two of you have got this. Congratulations and God bless! A baby...YAY!!! 👶🏻
How amazing to hear!! We are honestly super thrilled! And I thank you and your niece for the amazing gift that is creating a family for a loving couple! Just brings tears of joy as we know how hard it can be! Thank you so much ❤️❤️
I am so excited for both of you. I really enjoy watching your TH-cam channel
thank youuuu
I'm new to your channel but would like to say congratulations to you both and from what I have seen you will be awesome parents.
I see your channel as a celebration of love. Love of historic buildings, love of renovation, love of design, of course love of each other and your families, and now the love of a precious baby and your new family together. Happy times! Thanks for taking us along on the journey❤
Aww thank you! Yes we like to do a mix of everything about our life 🥰
Congratulations! I adopted 8 years ago as a single mom, and while you’re never ready, I think all of the years you spent building a stable and loving relationship and life and home together will make an incredibly good foundation for your family’s success!
Aww thank you and that’s true you are never ready but when they come it all falls into place 🥰
No idea how this video popped up on my feed but I am now huge fans of you two! And, like everyone has said, you’ll never be “ready” and yet THIS is the perfect time!
thank you! that made us very happy you saying that! welcome aboard :)
Borja's excitement brought a happy tear to my eye. Congratulations, guys!
Thank you so much! Honestly we are so happy 🥰
Congratulations! I just discovered your channel and had to subscribe, what a special couple you are. I am so happy for you and once you bring your precious baby home it will all just fall in place naturally, all first time parents worry about that but they quickly realize it comes naturally. Again I love your channel and I am very happy for you!
Right!?! He was about to BURST.
thank you soooooo much! and welcome aboard!
Well you two will experience the unique and sheer pleasure of becoming dads of a new born baby. Wonderful.
🥰🥰
Love how Borja keeps using plural (our children) even after Dean says one is enough. 😊 So happy for you.
🤣
hahahaha yesss
Huge congratulations. A great line from a friend “if the worse thing my kid says in therapy is they were an only child, I’m fine with that.”
Love that thank you 🥰
Haha that’s probably the only thing I DIDNT complain to my therapist about.. absolutely loved and appreciated being an only child! 😂😊
What a lucky child. You guys will be the best Dads ❤ congratulations!
Thank you sooo much! Already planing a tree house with three floors 😂
Love love love ❤️
We live in the US. We have friends who are married and like you wanted a child. Here is how they did it. Same as you, they wanted to have a child with their own DNA. So, our 1 friend asked his family for a donated egg. And he immediately had 2 or 3 women in the family volunteer. Invitro was done, with his husbands sperm, and they had a beautiful little boy. The second baby was done same way but with donated egg from 2nd husbands' family. Again invitro and now they have a boy AND a girl. And their families and all their friends including us, LOVE those kids so much. But mostly, they feel complete. And their happiness shows in everything they do.
How wonderful! So glad that they managed to complete their family! 🥰🩵
In a couple of years, you'll have a curious toddler running through the pathways, uncovering the mysteries around every turn both here and at The Dower House. So excited for you two. Happy Father's Day from the U.S. to both of you. 👶👨🍼👨🍼🍼🤍🤍
Can't wait! Thank you so much 😀
I believe the gift of a child to be brought up by loving parents be they gay or straight is the most important thing. You are both going to be fabulous parents. So much love to you both❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for saying that, we believe that too! 💙💙
My mother died when I was 2 and my brother 4, way back in 1952. My Dad raised us as a single father against everyone’s advice to put us in an orphanage. Single Dads were unheard of in those days but he did a phenomenal job raising two successful, well balanced people. Men can raise kids no question… It’s not easy raising kids ( I raised two) and it does change your life in ways you can’t imagine. A baby grows quickly into a toddler, into school age, into a teenager. Every stage is challenging… Good luck you guys! And bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Yes we believe is doesn’t matter about gender it matters about the love they give to the child and it shows how much love your dad had to support you two ❤️how wonderful
Brought up three children in three separate house renovation projects. All beautiful adults now and we always saw it as investing our time and energy for their future. Can be difficult at times as progress can be slow and children take the priority but don't regret a thing. Tears in my eyes watching your excitement for your future family. Huge congratulations and wishing you all a wonderful future ❤
aww thank you so much!! well hearing stories like yours it gives us hopes to know that it can be done!
Last thing: all the best laid plans will buy out the window when you get that little bundle home, The baby will be your utter focus and you will end each day wondering how the heck how such a small bundle will create so much work and demand every moment of your life! Because you love each other, you will figure it out!
omg that made me smile as literally so many people have said that to us!
Congratulations! You are ready! House renovations that exhaust you, changing timelines, unforseen obstacles that need problem solving have prepared you. You guys will be great dads! Enjoy all the moments they really do go by so fast! ❤
Ahh yay thank you 🥰
I think you will be amazing dads. Congratulations! What a blessing.
Thank you so much!
You’ll be the best dads ever 🥰
Thank youuu thank youuu 😀😀
From a straight 66 year old Australian woman…….yay, congratulations. Wish you all the best on the arrival of the little one.
Ahh thank you 🥰
"My Tiny Estate" is still an appropriate channel name. A tiny bundle of joy on the estate.
That is true 😆🥰
Oh My Gosh! What great news! Borja said it best, the world needs more people like you in it and your child will be a blessing for the world! Best wishes. Believe it or not, you will do fine, because you have love!
Aww thank you 🥰❤️
My grandson has Aspergers and he is raising his son alone. He is 5 now and doing a great job. He has the support of all the family. It's true. Children need love. Congratulations. You will be amazing parents!
Aww how wonderful yes it’s the people that surround them is the most important thing 🥰
Babies need love, food and shelter. They are afraid of loud noises and the feeling of falling. I think you have it covered. There is no wrong or right. I’ve always dealt with children in a manner that made them feel that what they are feeling matters and is important to me. I never make them overeat. I only ask that they try new foods because they may like them. If they don’t, they don’t have to eat them. I’ve had many children during my life. None of my own. I would have been a very good parent, but I believe in a two parent household. I never felt secure enough in my relationships to bring a child of my own into the mix. It was a choice. You’ll do wonderfully. Congratulations. That mobile in the nursery is beautiful.
thank you so much! a lot of wisdom in those words!
There is no best time, easy time, or only time to welcome a baby to your family. You will be wonderful parents. Wishing you all the very best. ❤
It’s so true! We all have to just jump into the deep end!
I LOVE THIS SOO MUCH! ❤️❤️ Congrats dad and papa!
I'm on a surrogacy journey myself now with my sister. After a miscarriage two years ago we found out I had cervical cancer. It's been a shit time but seeing success stories like yours makes me feel hopeful it will work out for us too!
You will be the best parents!!
Awww we really hope your journey goes well. We are so sorry to hear that… it’s such an intense and emotional journey and we really hope it works out for you. Thinking of you and sending positive thoughts your way ❤️
@@mytinyestate Thank you so much! Yes it's a lot, but we're just grateful we have someone so close to us who's able and willing to do this for us. We realize a lot of intended parents are not so lucky. Thank you for your kind words. ❤
Blessings and prayers to you, your family and your sister!
@@The_Mystic_Mermaid Thank you so much!
I just found your channel today and subscribed. And OMG I’m so, so happy for the two of you! You’re going to be wonderful parents! 😁🤗🥰
Aww thank you so much 🥰
Hi Dean & Borja - I’ve been really enjoying your show and have been recommending it to my friends as well! I really enjoy how caring you both are for others, animals, and the planet. It’s so beautiful. And so happy for you both!!!
I wanted to share a gentle perspective on a comment I heard in this episode. When Borja mentioned that the surrogate was “just the oven” and not the mother, it made me pause. I know your intention was likely to clarify roles, but I felt that this phrasing may unintentionally overlook the incredible contribution and experience of surrogates.
As someone who’s passionate about supporting equality and respect for all, I believe there’s an opportunity here to acknowledge the surrogate’s role with more honor and appreciation. While you both will be the loving parents raising this child, and I fully celebrate that, it’s also worth recognizing that the surrogate brought this life into the world through her own body, with her own experiences, and under her care.
Her body nurtured, grew, and protected the baby for months, and her lived experiences and emotional state during this time have a lasting impact on the child’s development. Though she may not be the legal parent, her efforts and the physical, emotional, and even ancestral connections she shared with the baby are significant.
I don’t believe the comment was meant to diminish her contribution, but it might come across that way, especially to females who have carried or wish to carry a child. Childbirth is a profound and, at times, deadly journey, and I think honoring that courage and commitment speaks to the values of respect and equality that I know you both hold dear.
In this world of striving for greater equality and understanding, I’d love to see us all honoring the contributions of everyone involved in these beautiful journeys-whether it’s the loving parents raising the child or the surrogate who carried them into this world.
Thank you for the space to share my thoughts. I appreciate the compassion and openness you bring to your conversations and look forward to the amazing content you continue to create.
Warmly,
Dana Michelle Gillespie
Thanks for your comment. By no means did we mean to diminish the miraculous thing that our surrogate and other surrogates do. The comment was purely around the biological connections to the child as most seem to believe the surrogate who gives birth to the child is the mother but that is not the case. However the role they played in our child’s life is everlasting and they will be in his life forever. 🥰
Congratulations. There is nothing better than being a parent. It’s the hardest and most rewarding thing one can do. Blessings
That is lovely to hear! We can’t wait 😃😀
When you have a child you are never ready as long as love is there the rest is history
Wise words!
Congratulations Dads! You both will be great parents. ❤
We will try 😀😀
A child under the rainbow!! So nice and I wish you both my best wishes! ❤
I love that ❤️
I don’t know much about house renovation but watch with my wife because you two are great people. I know you’ll be great Dads.
Ahh thank you so much 🥰
You both sound amazing. It does not matter whether you are gay or straight. The important thing is always having the capacity to love someone more than yourself. Taking care of that child, protecting them and loving them unconditionally. Congratulations :)❤
You have expressed exactly our thoughts!
God bless you for all the love that you going to give to the baby
❤️❤️
Wow. Your video popped up randomly in my feed and I found myself completely caught up in your excitement. Obviously I've subscribed because I cannot just walk away from your journey now!😊
Aww thanks well hope you enjoy watching our journey 🥰
Same here.. this just popped up, now I want to follow you guys! You both are adorable!
You are 100% right- you’re never ready!! Have more than one (I’m looking at you Dean!)🤣 We have an only child and I wish it worked out differently. I wish she had at least one sibling.
hahahaha we will see!
Here in the USA and I am soooo Happy for You Guys!! This is such wonderful News!!! I'm New! Can't wait to see more and to see the precious little one. You two are just adorable. Thanks for sharing 💓💓

Hahah aww thanks 😜🥰
Oh my goodness! Now Dean’s pressure to get things done make sense! Huge huge huge congratulations guys. It’s the best and hardest thing ever ❤❤❤
Aww thank you so much! Yes we have been under massive pressure but we are able to start slowing down now 😀
We are so happy for you both. Congratulations! We were so happy whilst watching the video and the excitement and dread emanating from you both were funny. You both will be great fathers to this child...such an exciting journey ahead of you.
Thank you so much!! That is lovely of you to say!
What a blessed baby!! May your family always be a source of deep belonging and joy. ❤️🙏🏻🌈
Thank you 🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations! How glorious it is to become parents ❤.
My husband & I experienced the challenges of IVF to have our 2 beautiful boys. I can only imagine what it must have been for you both. The feeling of a space waiting to be filled in your family can be so difficult, but when your baby finally arrives it is wonderful. I have no doubt you will be wonderful parents. The love you have for each other comes through on every video. Wishing you all the best from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤
Aww thank youu so much! And certainly the road is tough but the end is wonderful 💙
OMG...tears of joy for you both! But Borja's excitement is so wonderful!

The greatest gift is that of a parent. You will never know love like this - but nor will you know the worry! 😅 You are both so deserving! What a fortunate little baby to be welcomed into a family with so much love! ❤️
Aww thank you! Yes we have heard this from a few but we are excited 🥰
How wonderful. I couldn't be happier for you. As you say........All children need is love, attention and stability. Give them that and you'll end up with a happy, well rounded and well adjusted child. Best of luck with the birth. Congrats.
You are so kind thank you for saying that! It is what we believe too ☺️
I’m so excited for the two of you! Yes it changes your life but you receive so much joy in return! My daughter had a surprise at 41 and can’t imagine life without her little girl. Watching her change in the last 20 months has brought her more joy than she could ever dream of!! You will be fabulous parents!!!!!!

Thrilled for you both. Hope all goes as planned and that your child brings much joy to your lives.
Thank youu so much 🥰
Congratulations to both of you. Such a happy news
Thank you!!🙏
@mytinyestate Sorry it's a bit late, I just recently found your channel, and I am binge all your videos. You both are doing a fabulous job with a renovation, and the baby
I'm a new subscriber and I came here for the house! What wonderful news. You're so right about all a child needs is love and safety. From how you both react to announcing it to us I can see it something you have for him/her. I'd love to be a Nanna. I'd love for it to be before I'm too old to enjoy the physical side of it.
I can't wait to see how you cope in the early months. You have a great family support system so I'm sure it will be fine. Try not to let "guilt" creep in. Try to stay present. Try to find time for each other. Above all find time for yourself as an individual. ❤
Thank you so much for such kind words 🥰 and hoping you are a nanna soon too x
A really strong partnership is really important and you have that in abundance. Patience with each other and yourselves also. Best of luck on this wonderful journey and enjoy!!
thank youuuu
I just now found your TH-cam channel after continually checking HGTV for a season 2. SO very happy for you both. I’m sure you’re already the most amazing dads!
Thank youuuu 🥰🤗
We need a baby shower for you guys!! Your baby is going to have such a beautiful, happy, magic childhood with you both as their parents 🥹🥰💜😭
Awww thank you 🥰
I am catching up with old videos whilst watching recent ones so I have already watched you getting the baby so was lovely to ❤watch this and see how excited you were …. Totally correct when will you ever be ready ….. we’ve had four (now adults ) during many years of renovating and we still renovating now always something to repair upgrade or change so just go with the flow as I always say …..so wonderful you’ve had then chance to do this and overjoyed it’s been a wonderful journey for you and such a supportive family you have the baby will be showered with love thank you for sharing this journey ❤
How absolutely lovely! Thank you so much for the message 🩵
Ohhhh wonderful news, your son ( you said he???) will be in good hands and surrounded by love and of course great style!
Did we?! I meant to say it! 😂😂😂 or did I mean she? 😂😂😂
I planned + carried both my children myself almost 10 yrs apart, had barely any experience with babies + I still didn’t really feel ready (at least the 1st time)! lol My daughters couldn’t be more different from each other + are each fabulous, beautiful happy humans! Congratulations + enjoy your family!
Thanks for saying this! I don't think we will feel prepared even when we are with our little one!
No way!!!!!! Over the moon for you both xxx CONGRATULATIONS ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank youuu we are sooooo pleased 😀😀
Congratulations to you both. You are going to make fabulous parents. Wonderful news🎉🪅❤️
Thank you so much!☺️
Ahhhh the loveliest news! You will make such lovely, doting parents. What an exciting development. ❤
Thank you! We are thrilled to bits 🥹
Congratulations on your bundle of precious love. I have two daughters, 27 and 25 and they are the best part of my life. My ex husband had never held a baby, changed a nappy or had anything to do with children at all much less a baby, but he was brilliant. Sadly he left us when my youngest was 15 months old however that being a daddy was still his favourite job. I truly believe children are a gift to each and every parent and I know your baby is truly blessed to have a Daddy and a Papa like both. Enjoy the ride boys, strap in and hold on tight because your lives will change forever and you will never change a bit of the journey. Hugs from Australia 🇦🇺❤️👨🍼👨🍼
Thank you so much for such wonderful message ❤️
Huge congrats! You will be amazing parents, you are so loving and respectful of one another. That is the foundation for being wonderful parents.
Thank you! We made sure we were having a solid foundation to build upon ☺️
Congratulations! I'm. so happy for you and your baby. Your. child has the best place to grow up and explore and be happy. God. bless.
Thank you so much!
Congratulations to you both!❤ What a very lucky Baby! 😊
Thank you so much for explaining the process of surrogacy.
Aww thank you so much for watching ❤️
So happy for you…….you will be wonderful parents, a house full of love and laughter………….❤❤❤Donna in Toronto
Thank you so much 🤎
Congratulations, but I had a feeling when I seen the title of your video. Just remember it does take a village. Please remember to let grandma‘s or Mema’s whatever they want to be called babysit while you too nourish your relationship. I’m suggesting at least to start out with because I have a feeling you’re not take time away from the baby, but both of your relationship is just as important as all three of your relationships. You guys have this. I know you’re both gonna be wonderful parents that baby so lucky. Again congratulations.
Ahh thanks yes we are conscious of continuing to keep our relationship strong as well that’s very important to us 🥰 thank you for your support xx
Congratulations you two are going to be great caring considerate parents so happy for you both.
Thank you so much!
Congrats!!
