My brother is 22 months younger than me. They had him tested because he didn't talk. The diagnosis was me - the older sister. I spoke for him so he didn't need to. When he did, he was talking in full sentences. It is 38 years later and I still try to take care of him. Big sisters be like that.
My family was like that too! I had a brother 2 years 18 days younger than me, and I was told he wouldn't talk so they put him into speech but then I would always tell everyone what he wanted so he wouldn't speak (I wish there was a video but glad they told me the story)
Well in case you are interested, regarding the bank accounts, we both work (very similar salaries) and have separate accounts but also a joined one where we both put the same amount each month. With this account we pay most things: rent, bills, car, groceries, eating out, clean lady, home repairs & appliances... We use the personal one for gifts (to each other but also I pay for my family's gifts, he pays for his. This way I don't feel bad if I want to spend more on my niece than what he would like for his, for example). Also if i go on a girls trip, or want to buy something for myself (clothes, hairdresser, a new phone) I pay that from my account. This felt the good for both of us, so we don't feel bad for spending money on things that are not necessities.
Bringing Up Bates WAS entertaining! I loved your family show!!! I m so thankful that several of your families have TH-cam channels! Sorry we didn’t see your sweet kiddos today but I enjoyed your AMA very much! ❤️❤️
EVAN: My husband was just like you. Had all these great ideas, developed them to the point of production, then said, “one day…”. Well, he went to be with Jesus at age 59 and “one day” never came. Follow through on your dreams BEFORE one day never comes. Carlin did, and look at BSB! You never know! PS: You ARE both great singers and you can BOTH sing really well! I vote for both of you and sappy love songs!
Maybe your husband is living out some of his "one day" dreams in heaven. We still create and serve and work in the next life. It's just way more fruitful and enjoyable!
In re Zade's speech, my son didn't talk until 3 but he spoke in full sentences when he started. He was an observer and took everything in until he could speak well. You guys are the best!!
Carlin, I enjoy your TH-cam channel and your sister Erin’s as well. Just to let you know, I am a Christian living in South Florida and I have struggled many times with finding the time to read God’s word. When your sister Erin and her husband created their website “Chad & Erin weekly devotionals,” it has encouraged me to spend more time talking to Jesus/ God our Savior and King. Thank you for sharing brief moments of your life with the world. It has truly been a pleasure watching you grow up and live your life. Keep up the great content and sweet dialog.
Girl I am loving how y'all are honest. We see one side the YT side and you kinda went and spilt the tea. Love how real y'all are! I am enjoying watching y'all grow in the Lord
Hi Carlin and Evan. You know why your videos are so good, because you act natural. Your videos aren’t of you acting for the camera. I used to be excited to watch someone else’s videos but then they started acting instead of being natural. This made me stop responding to their videos. You two are doing an amazing job with the children. They are both so sweet. God bless you and your wonderful family.
On the bank account situation. When we 1st got married, we had separate accounts. Fast forward many years, we ended up uniting our accounts & God has richly blessed that unity because it's so important to be connected in every level of life.
We just celebrated our 26th wedding anniversary on the 12th and we have always had separate checking accounts. We don't even bank at the same bank, as long as all the bills get paid we are good.
My husband and I have separate bank accounts. It works for us. We each pay our certain bills and if one has a bill that they need help with, we pay it. We both pay at various meals out but don’t eat out a lot of buy coffee out. You’re so right, it’s so expensive. We live a simple life with very little debt. Mortgage, utilities, groceries, and medical bills are our only debts. It’s tough for young people. We’ve paid our vehicles off and he fixes our cars so we will never have another car payment.
Evan i love it when u & travis sang that christmas song & video u need to do more songs & videos u both sound so good together with travis he was like frank sinatra (travis) & dean martin (Evan).& Evan u were born to do these videos outta all the bates family videos urs & carlin videos is my favorite ur so funny & 2nd is travis & katie & zade is doing even better now since he turn 2 boys are delayed a lil girls usually are born talking ..lol thats what my husband says about me
P.p.s. We have separate accts. We were a little older when we coupled up and had separate accounts and houses already. It was easier to keep it separate. I wouldn’t care if it was joint at this point. But the nice part is we can surprise each other with a purchase and also not micro manage on little expenses that we might differ on. It works for us. I see both sides & it’s great if two ppl can agree on whichever way and finances aren’t a typical problem.
I so agree with you and Carlin, once you're married you become as one. I've never understood the reasoning behind separate accounts or other things. Thank you both for sharing some of your life with us. Love all of the Bates family.
I had speech therapy too. I had to say "The rabbit ran around the tree." or something close to that. My mom shares a bday with Papa Bill - same year. Carlin you look great, so thankful to God for answering our prayers for you.
Enjoyed this video. You both are so cute together. Your kids are adorable. I did want to let you know something I learned years ago and it still holds true. You can have ferns and birds nesting inside, and still water your ferns. Spray gently on the inside of the basket. Do it everyday, if your plants need watering. The birds will be fine, the mother will be fine. Remember, nests in trees and bushes get rained on. So take care of your ferns, mama bird will take care of her babies. Maybe that's one reason they chose to nest there, for the water. Enjoy Fathers Day and your upcoming July 4th trip to the farm. Love and Blessings for your family. ❤
I so enjoy watching you guys every week!! I live in Central Kentucky and my goal is to meet you guys and some of Carlin's family on my bucket list. I'm mostly in a wheelchair and I sing and recorded gospel music so yes I understand about getting in the spirit. I've asked my brother and sister-in-law to bring me to your Dad's church to meet them and worship with them. I really really want to meet them. Help me pray this thru!! Love you guys!! 💗
This might be one of my favorite videos of you guys. You’re both so real/genuine, funny, level headed, great people. Very likable and comfortable like I actually know you guys even though I don’t lol Thanks for sharing! Fun to watch/listen to you. God bless! (Sounds like your parents maybe dispersed/saved the money a little more fairly to the “kids” on the show vs your friends’ family- where there seems to be a little more hard feelings regarding tv show payment sadly. You all seem more adjusted and ok with how finances were distributed. Just a perception. Funny to think of all the Stew Crew that never saw the show, I always think that’s where all your subscribers are from but I know that’s not possible.) p.s. keep singing Even you sound great! This was my rapid fire comments lol 😂 I’m as brief as you!
This might have been the best vlog yet!!! I just love y’all. 1) Evan’s Bible theater made me lol and I really hope it’s in Heaven 2) Carlin being so transparent about yall not vibing this week - loved it😂❤ 3) looooooved your worship sesh. Your hearts are so pure and beautiful and I feel like we are friends just from watching the vlog 😂🫶🏻
We always had joint bank accounts. We married very young and struggled financially. When we became financially stable we had an agreement that neither of us would spent over $100 (for non essentials) without discussing it with our spouse.
I have 3 grown children. 2 girls and my son is the youngest. We had concerns with him and it was my mother who said The girls talk for him! We had to redirect them and MAKE him answer for himself and he grew out of that. We love to fellowship with you guys through your videos and our thoughts and prayers are always with you and your lovely families!
To the new believer.. Get a study Bible and find a church that teaches the Word with practical wisdom on how to apply it to everyday life. Start in the gospel (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) and find someone you can ask questions with (small group, mentor, friend) A lot of churches offer classes to the new believer..
First things first…Happy Fathers Day Evan. You are a wonderful father to Layla and Zade. I fell in love with Tennessee last fall when my family and I went to Dollywood. If my kids would pack up their kids and go with me I would be moving there too. But for now my 64 y/o self will have to stay in Arizona.
I loved this episode!! I too love listening to worship music. In fact that's all I listen to. I feel like when you say that to some people, they are kind of judging you like holier than thou!!And that’s not it at all. It’s just what I prefer to listen to and enjoy listening to. Love you guys! I pray blessings over you.
I LOVE all the Bates!!!! I’m 79 years old and had four children. How I wish I would have had your wisdom when raising our children. I LOVE the advice you gave the new Christian, it was perfect. So many Christians today are no longer attending church. Church attendance and church community is so important and Biblical. Hebrews 10:24, 25 to name just one. Find a Bible believing church, read the Word every day, and pray. I loved today’s Q&A. I love your wisdom and your humor. Your babies are adorable and I love watching them as well
My son has Aproxia of speech it's a slow response from brain to tongue. He was & is highly intelligent even back years ago !! But that can affect motor skills for them as well like they can be clumsy & affect depth perception. But my son worked so hard in his early years and did speech till the end of 3rd grade. Now he's going into senior year of HS honor roll Ap classes and still will struggle with speaking loud enough and a couple sounds hear & there but he's perfect ! But it was a struggle !! Getting them to talk is most important like do you want juice or milk getting them to speak as much as possible which his sister & I knew everything he was saying and needed so it was easy for him not to say much ! But they're both so precious & such a blessing to you all !!!
Speaking of singing....would love to see more videos of Evan and Travis doing fun ones like their Christmas one! Also would love to hear the two of you do an album! Would also love to hear the brothers and brother-in-laws who sing do one together!
I got married very young so right away we shared checking/savings account. When I went back to school and got my degree and started working at a hospital some of my co-workers who started getting married in their late 20’s early 30’s had their own money and what they would do is have a joint account and they would both put in a certain amount of money to cover the bills but otherwise kept their money separate. Also, we adopted my son at age 2 and he could only say about 5 words. By the time he was 3 the social worker had us put him in pre-school as well as a speech therapist coming to our house. But, like you said when the Pediatrician shares concern I have no doubt you’ll do what’s best for Zade!
My boys were always delayed in speech. They eventually talked but it did take a few years. By 3 they were talking a lot but mastered it by 5. One still has speech lessons but my oldest boy stopped speech when he was in 4th grade. So don't worry too much. He will get it!
No! This wasn’t too personal it was awesome!!!! I love y’all’s Vlogs my absolute favorite! I love it was 30 minutes keep it coming!😂❤ Evan bro you can sing!!!!! You & Carlins harmony is beautiful please make an album .. you would be so good in a movie you could sing dance you have all the talent to do that!! You are high school musical made over ! I love it !!! Yall make a movie!!!! 🎉🎉🎉😊
Enjoyed hearing your answers. One bank account for us and 31 years of marriage. Happy Father’s Day Evan. That’s so great your family is taking turns going to visit the farm and help out.
Thank you for sharing your lives with us! I believe you are helping people walk with the Lord just by being real and genuine with your faith. We have been watching all of your family since bringing up the Bates first aired! Blessings to all of you and everyone else watching! ❤
My husband and I had our 30th wedding anniversary in April! We have never been in an argument or a fight! I don't think it's right to yell or scream at him... why would I treat him that way? He is my partner, my better half! We may not agree about everything, but we work it out without ever fighting with each other! I love my husband too much to yell at him! I haven't always been this way, but when my husband and I first started dating, we didn't it set rules or anything... we just treated each other with respect. Now, after 30 years of marriage, I can be proud of our relationship and have no regrets about how we communicate with each other! Love you guys!
Evan I had speech therapy even in middle school for my R's, totally get what you went through. Also Zade, I don't feel is behind, boys are slower and I've watched my grandkids and kids both go from struggling to talking more to blossoming so much, now they will talk your ear off 🙂. Anyways, I love y'all and I love your faith in our Lord.
Carlin, I only listen to Mission music. Right now my favorite is Phil Wickham. His I Believe album is great. I would love to hear both of you sing. Was reminded of Evan's voice when he briefly sang. Love you both.
My son as a toddler talked full sentences at 18 months old. Then again he was around grown ups. He was so smart n entertained himself with books!! Far as I can go back he didn't cry much either unless he had dirty pants n wet. He always ate alot n just was a very happy baby. People would always say your son is so happy n quiet. I took the bottle away when he threw it down n in the trash it went. I think he was 16 months old. I told him tell "baba" bye bye! Thank goodness he didn't like a paci!! Just stay dry n fed n all was well in his world!!
My son was also around adults for 4 years till he sister came. Both kids never had a bottle after turning one. Neither had a pacific. My daddy taught both how to read a map before they could drive. Both started work at 16 and both there own car❤
You mentioned about Zade not talking a ton and that makes sense as him being the second kid and Layla such a talkative cutie could be “taking the words out of his mouth”. Just make sure that she’s not interrupting him because it can cause him to have stuttering problems. I know this from experience because I’m the oldest and the second in the family is my brother and I was very talkative and would talk for him and it would cause him to stutter as he got older. Hope this info helps! Love y’all’s channel!
Enjoyed you answering different types of questions! For finances, my husband and I both work full time, 1 shared joint account but also have seperate personal ones. And our own investments like CD acts we each started before marriage, so we earn varying interest rates to plan for future goals.
Evan, you are an awesome singer. I loved it when you & Travis did the christmas song in the tree farm. You both should do an album together. Don't doubt yourself. You are really good.
Zade is going to be just fine! My nephew didn’t speak A WORD until he turned 4, every child is different. 😊 We had a mamma bird build a nest on our front porch. She had 4 itty bitty birds. We would check them daily & yesterday when I went to check on them momma & all 4 birds flew off. I know it was time, but I’m sure going to miss them. I’m leaving the nest & hoping they will return next year. I had a feeling that you might get to take off your bracelet!!! That was my guess last week when you mentioned something BIG coming. Have a blessed week!! 🩷🩷
Will both kids get swimming lessons? This is a great vlog can’t wait for the 4ths video. I love how sweet Layla is with Zade and other kids . Zade’s personality is totally coming out it’s great
Tell Layla that my grandson asked God on his 3rd birthday for a baby sister on his number 4 birthday. His sister arrived 4 days after his 4th birthday. When he got to be 6 or 7 and she was beginning to get into his stuff, we reminded him that she was his birthday present, he said have you heard of regifting.
Can't wait to see the new vlog and hope you guys have a great Sunday afternoon and evening with the kids and hope Evan has a wonderful Father's Day today and hope the Men on both sides of the families have a great Father's Day and especially the grandpas.
Just want to share this in reference to Zade’s speech….. my grandson was the exact same way. My daughter and her husband kept a good eye on him and decided to have him evaluated for delayed speech. He did end up having speech therapy and what a world of difference it made. Just trust your instincts as his parents. You’ll know if any intervention is needed ❤. And he is adorable by the way 😊
Sweet family! Look into the safety of sitting in your electric car while charging it. A lot of people are having health impacts from the EMF's during charging....especially children. God Bless.
My youngest nephew and my youngest grandson were both delayed in their speech. The doctors said it was likely due to them both having older siblings that would talk, talk, talk which left very little space for the younger sibs to get a word in. They are both older now and are both well read and very well spoken. Little Zade will be just fine! ❤❤❤
My Husband And I Are Celebrating Our 24th Anniversary On July 4th One Of His Uncle Has A Birthday On The 4th Of July As Well❤❤❤I'm Still Praying For Y'all And Papa Bill, Janey 🙏
Has BSB ever considered doing a nation wide tour like event setting up a one day cash and carry pop up store in different state locations? You could set up in a canopy style tent. Such an event would allow your nationwide customers who are unable to travel to TN to attend one of your cash and carry events (and purchase a cap 🧢 that are only available for those attending your TN cash and carry events). I for one and I’m sure many others would definitely wait in line to meet, greet and purchase 🤗 ☀️ 🌵 And also, please consider carrying a bit more XS outfits for your petite customers. Thank you for your time and God bless your beautiful family! 🙏🏼
My brother is 22 months younger than me. They had him tested because he didn't talk. The diagnosis was me - the older sister. I spoke for him so he didn't need to. When he did, he was talking in full sentences. It is 38 years later and I still try to take care of him. Big sisters be like that.
My family was like that too! I had a brother 2 years 18 days younger than me, and I was told he wouldn't talk so they put him into speech but then I would always tell everyone what he wanted so he wouldn't speak (I wish there was a video but glad they told me the story)
That was the issue with my twins one didnt speak because her sister always spoke for her.@@susiesantino5625
I hate we don’t get to see Nathan and Esther very much. Nathan’s heart is so sweet!
I know, I love Nathan and Esther😊❤
They have a TH-cam channel, but it's basically dead unfortunately.
Lawsons TH-cam shows them a lot 😊
U 2 doing an album would be awesome.
Also Evan & Travis would be great together
Nathan is a Pilot and he also has like a school to train new Pilots and he travels for Mission work
When Carlin was talking about the birds and bird nests…her expressions looked so much like Layla, adorable. Happy Father’s Day Evan🧖☀️
Singing the worship songs was so sweet - more please.
Well in case you are interested, regarding the bank accounts, we both work (very similar salaries) and have separate accounts but also a joined one where we both put the same amount each month.

Write a song calledCorny Love Songs

I think have a joint account to pay bills ect. But, you each can have a seperate account for yourselves if you want to save, and spend for yourselves.
What is there websites?
Evan and Travis need to record a song/whole album. That would be FANTASTIC!!!! More than the music video they did.
Agreed❤
Girl I am loving how y'all are honest. We see one side the YT side and you kinda went and spilt the tea. Love how real y'all are! I am enjoying watching y'all grow in the Lord

Well Not completely true they manipulated that question of varying from parents religious hard hardcore crazy stuff! True dat!

You guys are so cute. I'm not a Christian but i just love how passionate and dedicated you all are about God. It's beautiful to see ❤
Evan i love it when u & travis sang that christmas song & video u need to do more songs & videos u both sound so good together with travis he was like frank sinatra (travis) & dean martin (Evan).& Evan u were born to do these videos outta all the bates family videos urs & carlin videos is my favorite ur so funny & 2nd is travis & katie & zade is doing even better now since he turn 2 boys are delayed a lil girls usually are born talking ..lol thats what my husband says about me

Happy Father's Day Evan!!! Marriage is united, one account.

Yes to the Bible stories in a theater room! It’ll be there!
I believe so, too!
Brandon Lake's Gratitude is my all time favorite!!!

Happy Father's Day Evan!!! I loved this one because it was so relaxed. And not just 15 minutes
I so enjoy watching you guys every week!! I live in Central Kentucky and my goal is to meet you guys and some of Carlin's family on my bucket list.

The song you wrote to tell Carlin about the engagement trip is a favorite. I could sing it. I'd love to hear your love songs for your family.
I absolutely loved this episode... So down to earth and hilarious
Happy Father's Day Evan!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
One bank acct, for sure. 39 yrs married.
I would say, in addition to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, add Acts. And I like the idea of a Psalm and Proverbs a day!
I agree with y’all on the one account! When you marry you become one.
Happy Fathers Day Evan! 😊
Happy Father’s Day. This was a great video. Q&A. Can’t wait to see the new pool. Y’all keep up the good work. Have a blessed Sunday.❤❤
Layla seems so social to me, I think she would love going to school with lots of kids, she'd have tons of friends and be the most popular girl!😊❤
They are not sending her to school, and that is their choice. it’s a myth that if you don’t go to public school they won’t have friends.
@@nancyfarkas3592 she never said she would never have e friends dang what people start
@@nancyfarkas3592 it be good if she did go to the he public school so she can mix with other kids and not only their cousins witch can get so boring
This might have been the best vlog yet!!! I just love y’all.
1) Evan’s Bible theater made me lol and I really hope it’s in Heaven
2) Carlin being so transparent about yall not vibing this week - loved it😂❤
3) looooooved your worship sesh. Your hearts are so pure and beautiful and I feel like we are friends just from watching the vlog 😂🫶🏻
We always had joint bank accounts. We married very young and struggled financially. When we became financially stable we had an agreement that neither of us would spent over $100 (for non essentials) without discussing it with our spouse.
I have 3 grown children. 2 girls and my son is the youngest. We had concerns with him and it was my mother who said
The girls talk for him!
We had to redirect them and MAKE him answer for himself and he grew out of that.
We love to fellowship with you guys through your videos and our thoughts and prayers are always with you and your lovely families!
Happy Father's Day Evan!! Suggestion for a video is you and Carlin singing together!! Loved hearing you all sing!
To the new believer.. Get a study Bible and find a church that teaches the Word with practical wisdom on how to apply it to everyday life. Start in the gospel (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) and find someone you can ask questions with (small group, mentor, friend) A lot of churches offer classes to the new believer..
PLEASE more with the friend group! I’ve been watching them all for yrs as well and didn’t know you guys knew each other!
Happy Father’s Day. Evan you and Travis are amazing singers. Yall should do more together.❤
100 % agree 👍🤲🙏
Bank accounts, we have 2 joint accounts, one for monthly bills and one for just spending, groceries and gas and stuff. It works for us
Older fan here. Didn’t love bluegrass until about 5 years ago. Your “speed” changes, lol.
We also do combined/one finances. 34 years, zero regrets.❤
42 years combined $$ just made sense to us!
Happy Father’s Day! One account always!!!!
First things first…Happy Fathers Day Evan. You are a wonderful father to Layla and Zade. I fell in love with Tennessee last fall when my family and I went to Dollywood. If my kids would pack up their kids and go with me I would be moving there too. But for now my 64 y/o self will have to stay in Arizona.
I loved this episode!! I too love listening to worship music. In fact that's all I listen to. I feel like when you say that to some people, they are kind of judging you like holier than thou!!And that’s not it at all. It’s just what I prefer to listen to and enjoy listening to. Love you guys! I pray blessings over you.
Happy Father's Day Evan 😊
Yes downtown Knoxville is rocking at night, I lived there in 2003 and worked at The Fort. Football season was always a challenge.
I LOVE all the Bates!!!! I’m 79 years old and had four children. How I wish I would have had your wisdom when raising our children. I LOVE the advice you gave the new Christian, it was perfect. So many Christians today are no longer attending church. Church attendance and church community is so important and Biblical. Hebrews 10:24, 25 to name just one. Find a Bible believing church, read the Word every day, and pray. I loved today’s Q&A. I love your wisdom and your humor. Your babies are adorable and I love watching them as well
My son has Aproxia of speech it's a slow response from brain to tongue. He was & is highly intelligent even back years ago !! But that can affect motor skills for them as well like they can be clumsy & affect depth perception. But my son worked so hard in his early years and did speech till the end of 3rd grade. Now he's going into senior year of HS honor roll Ap classes and still will struggle with speaking loud enough and a couple sounds hear & there but he's perfect ! But it was a struggle !! Getting them to talk is most important like do you want juice or milk getting them to speak as much as possible which his sister & I knew everything he was saying and needed so it was easy for him not to say much ! But they're both so precious & such a blessing to you all !!!
Awe…you guys are awesome! I like these kind of videos.
Happy Father’s Day Evan!
I vote some classic hymns! And a song with Travis
Speaking of singing....would love to see more videos of Evan and Travis doing fun ones like their Christmas one! Also would love to hear the two of you do an album! Would also love to hear the brothers and brother-in-laws who sing do one together!
I got married very young so right away we shared checking/savings account. When I went back to school and got my degree and started working at a hospital some of my co-workers who started getting married in their late 20’s early 30’s had their own money and what they would do is have a joint account and they would both put in a certain amount of money to cover the bills but otherwise kept their money separate.
Also, we adopted my son at age 2 and he could only say about 5 words. By the time he was 3 the social worker had us put him in pre-school as well as a speech therapist coming to our house. But, like you said when the Pediatrician shares concern I have no doubt you’ll do what’s best for Zade!
My boys were always delayed in speech. They eventually talked but it did take a few years. By 3 they were talking a lot but mastered it by 5. One still has speech lessons but my oldest boy stopped speech when he was in 4th grade. So don't worry too much. He will get it!
I loved this ama/q&a. More worship, singing together... Great advice for couples. You both are a gift.
My heart aches for your family going through the walk with your grandpa. My mom had this. 🙏🏻♥️

Joint account for us, married for 13 years (God willing, a lifetime to go).❤
You guys are amazing!!
My top worship song and go to every time is Praise You In This Storm.
I love how real y’all keep it! “I feel like we’ve been vibing this week, don’t you? NOPE” 😂🤟🏼 cracked me up! Loved this episode!
Enjoyed hearing your answers. One bank account for us and 31 years of marriage. Happy Father’s Day Evan. That’s so great your family is taking turns going to visit the farm and help out.
Thank you for sharing your lives with us! I believe you are helping people walk with the Lord just by being real and genuine with your faith. We have been watching all of your family since bringing up the Bates first aired! Blessings to all of you and everyone else watching! ❤
Okay I am CRACKING UP with Evan’s comment about hotdogs. Love yall. And totally agree with the worship songs. Definitely in my worship era
Happy Father’s Day Evan. 😊
Evan, we share the same go to coffee drink!!! It's the best!!
Happy Father's Day Evan! You're a wonderful father to your kids Layla and Zade. ❤
You definitely need to put out an album. Your voice is my favorite.
My husband and I had our 30th wedding anniversary in April! We have never been in an argument or a fight! I don't think it's right to yell or scream at him... why would I treat him that way? He is my partner, my better half! We may not agree about everything, but we work it out without ever fighting with each other! I love my husband too much to yell at him! I haven't always been this way, but when my husband and I first started dating, we didn't it set rules or anything... we just treated each other with respect. Now, after 30 years of marriage, I can be proud of our relationship and have no regrets about how we communicate with each other! Love you guys!
Evan I had speech therapy even in middle school for my R's, totally get what you went through. Also Zade, I don't feel is behind, boys are slower and I've watched my grandkids and kids both go from struggling to talking more to blossoming so much, now they will talk your ear off 🙂. Anyways, I love y'all and I love your faith in our Lord.
Carlin, I only listen to Mission music. Right now my favorite is Phil Wickham. His I Believe album is great. I would love to hear both of you sing. Was reminded of Evan's voice when he briefly sang. Love you both.
My son as a toddler talked full sentences at 18 months old. Then again he was around grown ups. He was so smart n entertained himself with books!! Far as I can go back he didn't cry much either unless he had dirty pants n wet. He always ate alot n just was a very happy baby. People would always say your son is so happy n quiet. I took the bottle away when he threw it down n in the trash it went. I think he was 16 months old. I told him tell "baba" bye bye! Thank goodness he didn't like a paci!! Just stay dry n fed n all was well in his world!!
My son was also around adults for 4 years till he sister came. Both kids never had a bottle after turning one. Neither had a pacific. My daddy taught both how to read a map before they could drive. Both started work at 16 and both there own car❤

You two are adorable together! These Q and As are fun to watch. Do more of them please!
As a speech therapy mom
Thank you for that R sound explanation 👏👏👏👏
I was doin that one with you 😂
You mentioned about Zade not talking a ton and that makes sense as him being the second kid and Layla such a talkative cutie could be “taking the words out of his mouth”. Just make sure that she’s not interrupting him because it can cause him to have stuttering problems. I know this from experience because I’m the oldest and the second in the family is my brother and I was very talkative and would talk for him and it would cause him to stutter as he got older.
Hope this info helps! Love y’all’s channel!
Enjoyed you answering different types of questions! For finances, my husband and I both work full time, 1 shared joint account but also have seperate personal ones. And our own investments like CD acts we each started before marriage, so we earn varying interest rates to plan for future goals.
Evan, you are an awesome singer. I loved it when you & Travis did the christmas song in the tree farm. You both should do an album together. Don't doubt yourself. You are really good.
You have a great voice Evan!
Love to hear you both singing. Definitely do a worship album! I would pay top dollar to see you in concert!🎵 ❤
Zade is going to be just fine! My nephew didn’t speak A WORD until he turned 4, every child is different. 😊
We had a mamma bird build a nest on our front porch. She had 4 itty bitty birds. We would check them daily & yesterday when I went to check on them momma & all 4 birds flew off. I know it was time, but I’m sure going to miss them. I’m leaving the nest & hoping they will return next year.
I had a feeling that you might get to take off your bracelet!!! That was my guess last week when you mentioned something BIG coming.
Have a blessed week!!

Will both kids get swimming lessons? This is a great vlog can’t wait for the 4ths video. I love how sweet Layla is with Zade and other kids . Zade’s personality is totally coming out it’s great
happy father’s day evan!! 😄
Tell Layla that my grandson asked God on his 3rd birthday for a baby sister on his number 4 birthday. His sister arrived 4 days after his 4th birthday. When he got to be 6 or 7 and she was beginning to get into his stuff, we reminded him that she was his birthday present, he said have you heard of regifting.
Lol
Can't wait to see the new vlog and hope you guys have a great Sunday afternoon and evening with the kids and hope Evan has a wonderful Father's Day today and hope the Men on both sides of the families have a great Father's Day and especially the grandpas.
Amen!!! Love getting jn the spirit with praise and worship!!
Love the harmonizing!! Enjoy your vids....Happy Father's Day Evan!!
HAPPY FATHERS DAY🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🎇🎇🎆🎆🎁🎁🎉🎉 Evan
Just want to share this in reference to Zade’s speech….. my grandson was the exact same way. My daughter and her husband kept a good eye on him and decided to have him evaluated for delayed speech. He did end up having speech therapy and what a world of difference it made. Just trust your instincts as his parents. You’ll know if any intervention is needed ❤. And he is adorable by the way 😊
You need to create and share a playlist!
Sweet family! Look into the safety of sitting in your electric car while charging it. A lot of people are having health impacts from the EMF's during charging....especially children. God Bless.
Y’all are such a hoot 🤣 love y’all
Life happens , kids grow, enjoy every moment of every season.
My youngest nephew and my youngest grandson were both delayed in their speech. The doctors said it was likely due to them both having older siblings that would talk, talk, talk which left very little space for the younger sibs to get a word in. They are both older now and are both well read and very well spoken. Little Zade will be just fine! ❤❤❤
Makin’ it real, Evan and Carlin! Love you two!
I love the mini worship sesh ❤❤❤ love y’all so much! God bless!!!
My Husband And I Are Celebrating Our 24th Anniversary On July 4th One Of His Uncle Has A Birthday On The 4th Of July As Well❤❤❤I'm Still Praying For Y'all And Papa Bill, Janey 🙏
Has BSB ever considered doing a nation wide tour like event setting up a one day cash and carry pop up store in different state locations? You could set up in a canopy style tent. Such an event would allow your nationwide customers who are unable to travel to TN to attend one of your cash and carry events (and purchase a cap 🧢 that are only available for those attending your TN cash and carry events). I for one and I’m sure many others would definitely wait in line to meet, greet and purchase 🤗 ☀️ 🌵 And also, please consider carrying a bit more XS outfits for your petite customers. Thank you for your time and God bless your beautiful family! 🙏🏼
