- Hello again! It's been a while :) This vlog is about our family trip to Canada, what it was like to finally bring Levi home to meet my family, as well as some baby/toddler travel tips that worked well for us.
I had the most wonderful month making it harder than ever to leave. Having a kid and getting older makes time more apparent and living abroad more and more tough.
Thanks for sharing these special moments with me and allowing me to open up about what’s going on in my mind.
*This footage is from June 2023 (Levi was 1 year and 3 months old)

The happy tears rolling down my face as your dad holds your hand & you hold Levi ❤❤❤
Same here 😭♥️💕
Same , such a emotional moment 😢❤
Same😭😭❤️
Me as well
same hahaha who cut onions
I never realized how much I missed watching your videos.
Welcome back we've missed you
...so much! ❤
I wouldn’t get too excited about having consistent videos from her, she uploaded this right before the 6 month cutoff where TH-cam stops monetizing videos. Not shaming her at all, I’m glad she’s spending time with her family and still giving us content, I just wouldn’t expect to see her again until around August when she NEEDS to upload again.
@@briellewoolsit’s nice to see this POV. I agree. I can’t imagine the time it takes to edit videos to this quality, and still spend the amount of time you want with your babies. You never feel like it’s enough time regardless! Lol
@@Brittanywithaney absolutely, my son is a few months younger than Levi and i can’t imagine traveling, filming and editing a video all while trying to run a business and be a partner! Plus her husband has his own business if i remember correctly. And it’s not like she gave us a half arsed video either, this is quality and keeps us up to date with what they have going on while also providing privacy. I’d definitely looove having more consistent content from Taylor but as a mom I can’t do anything but respect her decision to step back and be with her son
Not me crying when you met your dad at the airport pickup 😭
nor me 🥲💧
no I wasn't crying - you were crying --- ; )
Same
Me too it’s so cute
"my dad holding onto his baby while i hold mine" made me so emotional (': it must be so surreal to watch your child grow up and eventually have kids of their own and remember when they were a little baby.. it's so heartwarming, thank you so much for sharing these parts of your life with us
Hitting the girlies who lives abroad away from the families hard with this one 😭 somewhat comforting that we're going through the same things and thoughts. Thanks for sharing Taylor!
Absolutely 😭 I always wish to one day go back and never leave again but the years keep passing and I still want to live abroad for a little longer chasing dreams and a better life financially. What Taylor was saying at 15:40 is so TRUE.
No one will ever understand how hard it is to be an immigrant. ❤
It’s so nice that he can experience both sides of his heritage at a young age😊it’s so lovely to see your family grow and flourish❤love it
It's so fun watching Levi interact w/ his cousins! Can't believe how much he's grown. Also, glad to see you finally come home after so much has happened.
He's a lot older now, this was June last year!
as someone who lives far from my family and also had a baby recently, this really hits home 😢 i hope i get to see them soon ❤
I really hope you do too ❤ sending you so much love & strength!
@@Taylor_R thank you! 🤍
Your Dad at the party near the end kissing Levi and telling him I Love You got me absolutely bawling. Your Dad is so absolutely precious.
You can really see how much your dad has missed you! Very sweet 😊
Levi is just THE CUTEST baby. He is so so happy, clearly has amazing parents and LOVES his life
I miss my family :( The part about everyone getting older really hits home. I'm glad you got to have this great experience!
Honestly thought you hid an entire pregnancy from us and had a second baby already but ok yes this makes sense too 😆
SAME haha to be fair, this is like 9 months old
LOL ya this is old footage. I suck at editing now but I still always shoot things and want to share :)
@@Taylor_R totally happy to wait for a mom who just wants to live in the moment with her little boy 🥰
When I saw this title and Bali title, I was thinking she had a baby in Bali 😂😂😂
Every time ur dad was on screen I got emotional, he's just so delighted man ugh
Clicked so fast !!!
Me toooooo
His cousins are so so lovely. Liek they instantly love him and keep holding/hugging him and my heart is so full seeing that!
Your father holding you hand while the father days brunch made me tear up sm, I totally feel the life back home is changing and milestones will be missed and it made me move back to my family 😢❤
Tears streaming down my face when I saw your Dad holding your hand and you holding on to Levi.We have a pretty similar TTC story,my hubs and I struggled for 4 years and finally got our baby boy last year, he is turning 1 in a couple of weeks.Unfortunately, my Dad passed before he could meet his grandbaby, so seeing you with your Dad healed me a bit. ❤❤❤❤❤
I have a feeling you made your dad a lot more happier then he even showed with Levi. And you made Tom happy, even with his sea sickness, that he could even experience that fishing trip. Perhaps next time a fishing trip while just standing on land? Enough places to visit that would allow excellent fishing while not on a boat. Perhaps a special company that could make his day even more? Send him to a nearby fishing ship? Might also be interesting.
Great video :)
My dad passed this Father’s Day and it healed my heart a bit to see that while I was saying goodbye in a sad memory, you were with your father and husband happy. It makes me remember that the world is still a kind and happy place capable of warmth and that I may still be able to get back to that one day. Thank you for this ❤️
Ahh 9:12 killed me! Levi’s huge smiles looking at his cousins ❤️❤️❤️ He looked SO happy to be with them
Being a mother and realizing how fast life goes by is so true. Something no one mentions
This is so lovely to watch, my dad passed in January and it makes you realise how important family is.
You’ve been my comfort influencer for years and I just had a baby back in September and it’s been so lovely growing with you. Thanks for continuing to share your mom journey with us ❤
Ditto ❤
I'm crying because I'm so happy you got to bring Levi to your family
I'm a 60+ grammie in the US and I love your videos! You do a great job and have such insight. It's fun to see another part of the world and daily life in another country. Thanks for sharing it so beautifully
It’s so beautiful to be able to share your baby with loved ones! Thanks for sharing this sweet video! I met my
Hubby in Toronto 💞
The developmental spurts kids go through when you travel is insane. We found both of our kids always had developmental jumps whenever we traveled back to the States or traveled somewhere on vacation, or just went and did things that were out of the normal.
OMG, I’ve been checking your channel almost weekly hoping for another video! I’m so happy!!
As a fellow Canadian (also Toronto) living in Hong Kong with 2 young kids born there (also pandemic babies) this video speaks to my soul. I wish I could truly spend half my time there and half here.
Omg T.T. Its like the old days again. Having dinner while watching your vlogs. I know it’s difficult to balance vlogging and family. But please keep them coming. ❤❤
Mama Tay.. I'm crying in happy tears🥺 not just because seeing you, Levi, and Tom having the best days in your hometown, but also because I get to see your videos again after a longgggg time. Just seeing you and ur family being happy makes me happy.
Can't wait to see more Canada videos soon in October!
The way I ran when I saw you posted!
I‘m so excited to see a new video of you! 🥰
I was holding it together until 5:13.... Your dad holding your hand/arm was the sweetest thing.
OMG your Dad holding your hand while meeting Levi was so precious
Go back as often as you can ❤️ it’s worth the money and energy. It’s the most important thing in the world!
I cried so many times during this video, I wish you could be in Canada as much as possible
Doesn't matter how long between videos, I will ALWAYS come watch.
Toms fishing trip was so cute!!
He is so cute. He has a special place in my heart because my son is almost the same age and I used to watch your videos while I was pregnant with him!
I'm so glad you didn't skip posting this vlog although it was filmed awhile ago. It was a great one
I watched you when I was single, I watched you when I was engaged, and now I'm watching you married and look forward to seeing your videos when I'm a parent too one day (hopefully).
I definitely understand how you feel being separated from your Canadian family, how our hearts are torn between two families in two different countries.
I’m here in tears seeing you so happy with your family, you are an amazingly talented and most genuine human being ever and you deserve every bit of this, may god sprinkle endless love and joy on you and your family ❤
I'm not a mum but as someone living abroad and after covid and not being able to go back so often I had exactly the same feeling, suddenly time was passing, parents, aunts, cousins... everyone getting old, kids appearing everywhere... people not telling you when some is ill! (I totally understood your frustration). I couldn't relate more to this as well as your heart being constantly divided between two countries and so two families as well...
So good to see y’all!!
So glad you're back!
So so so excited for you to be back!
We've all been waiting for this moment with you. So happy for you and your family!

This was so lovely to watch. My dad passed away a year and a half ago and watching this made me cry and think of all the family milestones he will miss. I love that you're taking everything in and appreciating it. Life is precious, spend it with those you love. You never know how long you have with anyone 🥹
