Jessica, seeing you hold Rupert made me weirdly proud of you... I can't believe you're actually able to hold him even with him wiggling around in your arms, your strength training is definitely paying off! 😍😁
"I've either broken it or solved it... to be concluded" definitely needs to be a new quote on your merch. I think many of us can find it infinitely relatable.
@@KR-kj9oi They passed though. I see drivers break rules all the time (cutting when not supposed to, not using their signals). At this point passing the driving test seems like a formality. It doesn't really show you how conscientious a driver they'll be.
You’ve done the best thing possible for little Roo! Now that you have established the sleeping patterns that work for your family in your own home, going to spend time in a new space is helping to create generalizations of his skills, and the ability to practice your life skills in other spaces and situations. Of course it worked, because he has the most thoughtful mothers ever!!! Happy holidays holiday lovelies! 😻😇🕊
For anyone wondering it was the knights who say ni that wanted a shrubbery, a nice one not to expensive Edit: Rupert has the cutest little socks I think my heart just grew 3 sizes
i really respect you for finding a balance between documenting your parenting life and yet don’t show ruperts face everywhere, therefore leaving this choice to post his face online up to himself when he’s older! respectful and exactly how it should be 😊💕 also this video was adorable 🥺💕
You guys should add a diffuser to the routine, it blesses curly heads along with whatever curly products work for you. It may be a bit time consuming but I deff recommend trying! I’d love to see
Did you know there are Choose Your Own Adventure board books for babies? We recently found one at the library and chose the story route that Baby poked at. It was fun to relive that and share it with baby!
I just love how you think a 2 1/2 hour drive is a long drive. We spend easily up to 10 hours per day driving on long hauls here in Australia. We do a 2 1/2 hour drive to visit our daughter and grandchildren each way for a day trip. 🤷♀️
A little curly-haired suggestion. Wash, and dry your hair. It will be straight, but then take a bottle of water, mixed with a splodge of conditioner, and spritz it onto dry hair. Then run your fingers through it. The water encourages the curls to reappear, but the conditioner will stop frizz.
What a fun holiday! The fact that a baby made it through the night during a holiday with only one wake-up ONE of the nights is still an immense victory in my eyes. What a lovely trip scrapbook ✨
I know how you feel about difficulties of having special needs. I’m allergic to lots of foods and I literally eased my husband into the list of allergies I had throughout the course of dating. Unfortunately, I learned the hard way I was allergic to down feathers. I bought a very nice expensive down feather blanket and kept being sick and I couldn’t figure out why. My mom visits me one day and says “btw your grandmother is allergic to feathers maybe you are too.” 🤦🏻♀️ Would’ve saved me a lot of money and months worth of sickness and confusion. Lol
Claudia is right, to keep it wavy with a blow dryer you'd need to use a diffuser! Blowouts are in fact often used to straighten hair; if you're brushing it or pulling it straight out from your head while you apply heat, the heat will set it in that straightened out position, just like using a flat iron or curling wand uses heat to set it in a position.
I'm not British but my family used to drive through Britain every year for holidays from Ireland to France to get the ferry on both ends and I agree that is a very nice looking service station, though not the only one with lovely outdoor eating area surrounded by trees. To be fair, I may be getting confused with ones in France.
The best looking service area I've been to recently is the M5 Northbound services at Gloucester, however even by service station prices the food was too expensive!
Claudia can follow the curly girl method. Use shampoos and conditioners with no sulfates and no silicones. DONT rub your hair when drying with a towel. Use a very smooth material towel or an old t shirt for drying hair, don't rub, just squeeze gently and leave it to dry in the towel. Minimize heat tools (including blow driers), and most importantly, never brush your hair after washing. If you have to brush do it before you wash your hair. But best case is to just use your fingers or a wide tooth comb to detangle your hair gently when in the shower !
Ahhh Bath! BEAUTIFUL CITY. Hope you loved it, its a lovely place and lots to see . A mix of modern and great history. Nancy Drew books - you could choose which way the adventure went! Lovely glimpses of Bristol too! The iconic Ss Great Britain and The Matthew!
This was a wonderful interlude to a busy season. So sweet and relaxing. Rupert is such a beautiful child and I love how beautifully you dressed him. Thanks for taking us aling, it was fun.
I'm also allergic to feathers (to the point I really can't sleep in feather bedding) and it tends to come up when I've stayed in more expensive places, because its considered a 'luxury'. I've found most places can change it for synthetic fairly easily if you ask though. It's much more difficult when you're staying at someone's house and the first thing you have to say when you're shown your bed is "sorry, I can't sleep in that bedding." Then stand around awkwardly while your host searches for alternative bedding.
If you know you're staying somewhere it's always good to find out in advance, or to give your host/s notice of allergy needs. I have the same issue with pillows/cushions.
I live in America and I have never seen a service station that nice... Glad you all had a wonderful trip. I always look forward to your videos you and Claudia give me relationship goals. I love how you two interact and Rupert is so lucky to have you both as his parents..
So I have chronic fatigue, and recently found out about spoon theory. It really helps me to explain how my CFS works, so maybe this would be an interesting video topic?? Loving the video xx
Jessica did make a video a while ago about it th-cam.com/video/a2NGaG8mhjU/w-d-xo.html it is a pretty good video and she uses the sims to show it which is cool
You picked your own adventure trip, and it was lovely ! I love how little Rupert does so well with a schedule and over all temperament on an excursion! He really seems to be able to chill, except for one night with the FOUR wake ups. Maybe that wallpaper finally disturbed his sleep. Busy busy. Silly boy ! OH, just noticed the green scarf in your hair, really lovely.
rupert kicking his adorable chubby little leg at 5:08 is the cutest. maybe someone else noticed it as well, but if not then sharing it for cuteness haha
Thank you for the pretty pictures and inspiring happy times.. We have just come out of a 3 month lockdown, and I'm going to be housebound all summer with injuries, so it's really nice to see disability friendly lovey-dovey adventures! I had a go playing switchcraft this week and it got too hard too quickly with my dyslexia, I couldn't understand the point or the pattern of the games.. I gave up by 120 😕 but sooo addicitve.. But also so over stimulating! I started seeing the little shapes dropping in my dreams! 🥴😵 Just for anyone else with a sensative brain out there! But yes the arty graphics are great and the characters are super relatable, it's so nice to finally see inclusive representation! More please! 💖 And more easy fun ones, that are neuro divergent friendly and more about the story 🌟
This was quite surreal to watch as a longtime viewer who is from Bath 😅 and the hotel is just up the road from the village where I lived for many years
I hate blow drying my hair and it always looks fluffy if I use a brush and hair-dryer. But I love my Hot Tools hair dryer brush. It cuts down frizz and is easy quick and easy!
That lodge is a gorgeous place to stay in .. I love quirky places and you striked a cord with this one. I never ever go down to the South of England but if I ever will, I should visit that place indeed :) Edit: I appreciate Jessica putting an extra effort packing the bed and bath for Ru. I can't express how admirable that is because hearing you say it .. made lots of sense. My daughter always struggled to sleep in a new place and during her toddler years, I didn't think of packing her nap mattress with us .. which thinking of it now, makes lots of sense. I had her bed and then a mattress for her that is portable and she used to sleep on anywhere between kitchen to my office because I am a single mom and I left her for long hours when I was at uni and doing my part time job .. so I never wanted to leave her ever when I was home and I could sense she was getting separation anxiety when she was little. I think you truly did the best choice here .. and having a child sleep peacefully on day 1 of a new place is a huge acheivement. I usually pack my daughters baby toy .. she had a bunny and a blanket that she took everywhere .. but looking back at it, I think I should've packed her mattress and and maybe her bath toys .. that make lots of sense now.
Aww hope you had a lovely time! I used to live and work in Bath I miss it so much! I was a tour guide at the Jane Austen centre and I got to dress up as a regency lady every day. Seriously everything is better when you've got a bonnet on 😂😍
this is just so much fun, to at least remind me of first trips with my babies! Also Rupert making silly noises, and mums making them back... hilarious!
I live in the pacific northwest in the US, so that service station seemed pretty typical to me 😅 most of our rest stops and service stations are in the middle of the wilderness and surrounded by trees or open plains
For curly hair, there are so many curly girl methods out there. I think the through line is air dry, only brush/comb before the shower and only run fingers through after. Then scrunching while applying product to wet hair seems to be the standard, I’ve seen everything from pomade to a hard hold gel. It’s just about what finding works for your hair
ahhh from most iconic couple of all time to most iconic FAMILY of all time !!! brings me so much joy that y'all are all happy and healthy and enjoying the holiday season with little ru
Prepare yourself Claudia, my 30s were awesome. I got married, finally got the bed of my joints dreams and got the best friend ever. 40s not going too great, pandemic, joints taking a nosedive and having to going back to rheumatology and physio. Btw 44 in march next year. So hopefully mid to late 40s looking better with no extra obstacles.
There's this one service station in the mountains, in the Parc de la Saguenay northeast of Québec city, and it's delightful. The view, the air, the mist in the mornings, my god. It's also the only service station for a couple hours, so everyone stops there. The beauty of the Parc cannot be denied, cannot be ignored. It's the only spot to pee, so you have no choice.
Are we there yet? Are we there yet?Are we there yet?Are we there yet? Mummy mummy mama mama mum mum mum? "its a pretty nice service station" Claudia this was a tragic observation! Gorgeous Sybil hat/ Tommy and Tuppence hat!! Holy moly Rupert 's blue coat is like a powder version of Paddington bears duffel coat! How smart and dapper he must look!!
Not to rain on your parade but the superior service station is hands down Gloucester Services Farm Shop. We drive past it to go to Devon and I - have - to stop there every time it's amazing. It's a farm shop! With freshly made food! And a cute gift shop! The outside area is so peaceful. You must visit sometime.
😁 Something tells me Roo is going to demand to be on camera before long. I can hear him gurgling away, " Mummy! Mama! I am here and talking!!! Pay attention!"
I'm so glad your trip was a success, you both looked relaxed. Claudia I was going no! it's a ship not a boat when you were talking about the SS Great Britain, years of my dad explaining the difference between ships and boats!! and living in Bristol and every year doing a project on it. Did you have a drink and cake in the cafe? they do amazing cakes. I can't believe how close you were to my friends house, I could have waved at you. Even though the hotel looked lovely, I'm not sure I could have coped with the wallpaper! I would have nightmares. I hope you had a lovely birthday Claudia.
I think that might be hamstone in Bath? The yellow stone that comes from the Ham area. Also, I think that's Fleet services. I agree the surroundings are nice. The building on the other side of the motorway (westbound?) is much nicer though, it looks like it's been done up fairly recently and has a large Pizza Express with outdoor seating.
The shrubbery scene was from the holy grail film. Task was set by the knights who say Ni. They then changed changed their name to the knights who say ekke ekke ekkie petang zoo boing.
If you like graphic novel type games that give you choices, Fictif and The Arcana are amazing apps. I have enjoyed their art styles and story lines and unlike Episode, they are very fair with their coins and stuff like that. (It does not include puzzle games though) and there is an option to keep your character gender neutral and the option to have romantic queer relationships!!
SS Great Britain designed by Brunel. Important historical transoceanic steam ship. We went through Bristol when we visited the UK, long ago. I don't believe it was on display then. Loving your classic style -- it's really complemented by the inn you were visiting (could've been a Christie novel).
This video was so absolutely heartwarming! Also yes, that's a lovely service station (externally) - up there alongside Tebay, though not quite as fancy.
Claudia looks just fine she shouldn't be embarrassed she looks all natural and very very sporty she looks just fine and I'm not saying this just cuz I'm an older lady who could be her mother I'm saying this because it's true. Never be never be ashamed of looking like a normal person without the glamor and the glitz of makeup you look fine.
I've worked in housekeeping and I know those cots are a nightmare! If you stay in a hotel again and you need to collapse one. Lift up the mattress and there's a cotton tab, pull it up and the whole thing will collapse!! x

Jessica, seeing you hold Rupert made me weirdly proud of you... I can't believe you're actually able to hold him even with him wiggling around in your arms, your strength training is definitely paying off! 😍😁
Claudia’s enthusiasm for solving the nap crisis by visiting TKMaxx and finding surprise hats has brightened my mood. It’s just so funny 😂
"I've either broken it or solved it... to be concluded" definitely needs to be a new quote on your merch. I think many of us can find it infinitely relatable.
Jessica pushing the stroller 😍 ENCHANTING!
I love Claude’s style, especially the hat. Let’s not forget little Ru either. Always elegant. 😆🤍
Thank you 🤗
It must be especially wonderful for Jessica to put his outfit together; I mean he is dapper !! 🤵🏻
Don't worry Jessica, my mum is a driving instructor and one of her students took their test MORE THAN 20 TIMES before they passed.
SpongeBob**
I think my gran took it like 10 times then gave up
That must've taken years
I guess it's a bad sign. Such people shouldn't be driving.

At 20:14 Claudia warmed my heart ☺️, such a thoughtful and sweet thing to say to your partner. Rupert is so blessed to have you two for mummies!
My heart melted!!! So very sweet

Skip the heat entirely
Jessicas hat is giving Downton Abbey vibes while Claudias is giving Indiana Jones vibes. I'm for it!
"The Long Drive" omg. up to 3 hours? Makes me shake my American head. That's a visit to Grandma's (and we'd do there and back in one day sometimes).
What a fun holiday! The fact that a baby made it through the night during a holiday with only one wake-up ONE of the nights is still an immense victory in my eyes. What a lovely trip scrapbook ✨
I would suggest using the diffuser for keeping Claudia's normal waves. That's been very useful for my curls:)

3:30... you took a bath... to Bath... are you kidding me 😂
I...🤯 😂
Rupert is the most British baby ever, chef kiss to his stylist ;) !
Ru's little tippy taps when you're showing him the bathroom 🥺❤️
Oh my goshhh I live in Bath and grew up working in Homewood Park for years and grew up in the village down the road! I hope you had a lovely time Xx

Awww Claudias country walk was jaunty! Quite lively and free.
Happy belated birthday Claudia. I’m looking forward to my 30s, in my 20s now and it’s… rough.
"people slow down to look at the rocks". Not even a minute in and I am chuckling.
Ahhh Bath! BEAUTIFUL CITY. Hope you loved it, its a lovely place and lots to see . A mix of modern and great history.
Nancy Drew books - you could choose which way the adventure went!
Lovely glimpses of Bristol too! The iconic Ss Great Britain and The Matthew!
The Monty Python Shrubbery thing is when the Knights of Ni say “I want… a SHRUBBERY” in The Holy Grail movie 😂
This was a wonderful interlude to a busy season. So sweet and relaxing. Rupert is such a beautiful child and I love how beautifully you dressed him. Thanks for taking us aling, it was fun.
Re the dyson. USE THE DIFFUSER!!!!! No, I'm serious, that's how you maintain curl & wave with it.

Here for Jessicas brother throwing shade at "compostable" crisp packets
Ooh that services looked lovely! Best view at a british service station I can think of is Tebay services (northbound).
Rupert really loved the wallpaper, that was so funny.
The boat interlude was amazing! I like boats
Also the houses all look amazing
And Rupert is positively adorable
This was so magical!! I LOVE Jessica's coat!!
Seeing the cold, wet, English countryside is making me really miss England.
I never been to England and I'm enjoying 'sightseeing ' through their videos. 🙂❤
OK Rupert's socks with the bows literally just made me so happy!
Claudia always looks perfect.
Those little socks with the bows on the knees! So adorable!!!
You were NoT bad mummies you just had a very busy day,, you're the best mums I've ever seen
If you like graphic novel type games that give you choices, Fictif and The Arcana are amazing apps. I have enjoyed their art styles and story lines and unlike Episode, they are very fair with their coins and stuff like that. (It does not include puzzle games though) and there is an option to keep your character gender neutral and the option to have romantic queer relationships!!
The arcana dont give enough coins
SS Great Britain designed by Brunel.
Important historical transoceanic steam ship.
We went through Bristol when we visited the UK, long ago. I don't believe it was on display then.
Loving your classic style -- it's really complemented by the inn you were visiting (could've been a Christie novel).
Jessica, you would be great at ASMR! Your whispering voice is perfect for it!
This video was so absolutely heartwarming! Also yes, that's a lovely service station (externally) - up there alongside Tebay, though not quite as fancy.
3:59 It snowed last night and there is SO MUCH SNOW on the ground right now!!! It makes me so happy 😊😊😊
Claudia looks just fine she shouldn't be embarrassed she looks all natural and very very sporty she looks just fine and I'm not saying this just cuz I'm an older lady who could be her mother I'm saying this because it's true. Never be never be ashamed of looking like a normal person without the glamor and the glitz of makeup you look fine.
Just want to thank you for the effort of filming for us. I love your travel vlogs! PS Not British, and that is a super lively service station.
I've worked in housekeeping and I know those cots are a nightmare! If you stay in a hotel again and you need to collapse one. Lift up the mattress and there's a cotton tab, pull it up and the whole thing will collapse!! x
