Maia, your lifestyle vlogs are a joy to watch-relaxing, soothing, and truly enjoyable. I hope you keep creating more amazing content and find a way to recover the money TH-cam owes you 🙂
as a kid with seperated parents, I ended up always bringing a bag with me to my dads but I hated doing that. Once they start getting their own sense of style, try to make it an essential to have clothes at both homes that they want to and enjoy wearing. It was always so annoying bringing clothes to school so that when my dad picked me up I would have them for his house. I hope that makes sense lol
We always let ours bring something that he felt comfortable in and liked to wear. We ended up having to have a bag of clothes that we washed and sent back with him to his moms, and she would do the same. He has always had a full closet at both homes and sometimes clothes went back and forth but we tried to always make sure it got back to the home it needed to be in. As he got older, he typically wears the outfit that he came/left in and that has helped a ton! But we swap every week, so that makes things a little easier and consistent.
Don’t overthink it, my sweetheart packs her own clothes now that she’s older and brings it back once in a while she forgets something but just brings it back next time. When she was little he used to tell me he had clothes there but I always packed some just in case something didn’t fit or she didn’t like it. You are doing a great job! Hang in there!
For clothing, it started out as me sending clothes over and then realized NONE were coming back and I was told I didn’t buy them clothes when they were keeping them,. So it ended with them having one certain pair of clothes they wore over there, and that’s what they wore over every week and could change at dads. And if they came home in clothes from their house, then they’d be washed and they’d were them back over there when they went. Solved a lot of issues actually.
Except your kids have to wear a uniform to their dad's lol it works for you but I don't think this is good for your kids. Coming from personal experience parents being petty like this affect the kids. And yes I know what I'm talking about because I lived it.
@@kaylamaggard359 I also lived this as the kid AND the parent now. I have mom guilt over it. But as a single mom with one income I quite literally cant afford to send my child away in a whole outfit that I've bought 1-2 times a week just to never see those clothes again. When I bring any issues up with my son's father he will disregard the entire convo. like talking to a wall :/
NOW- this being said if my son (6YO) wants to wear his new outfits/shoes or certain things to his dad's, I let him. Its not his fault. just sucks for me because I'm sending my son away in a $60 pair of shoes or maybe outfit that I will NEVER get back.
So my sister and I literally just brought close is a bag over and back the ones we wanted to wear that week, it really sucked but no other way of really doing it 😂😂😂 when you want certain items! But we always had clothes that we new were dads and moms house and just really left stuff at both houses and brought ones back and forth we wanted❤️
I have divorced parents and I had clothes at both houses, I never took things from my Moms to my Dads because they never came back!! But I also found my clothes at my dads were always too small or outdated and I hated them so when I became a teenager I started to take my own clothes with me
same! I actually wasn't allowed to bring things from mom's to dad's because they would go missing and not come back. ( had a step sister from my dad's 2nd marriage we think she was taking it at the time. her mom favored her over me and my brothers. i was never allowed on their shopping trips and she was stealing bill money from my dad to go shopping). As I got older I started having favorite clothes and style so it got harder for my mom to say no and if it wasn't for me wearing the stuff she got to my dad's during the school year then, I didn't have clothes that fit and looked like a slob. He wouldn't get me anything new until he was dating my now step mom (I was maybe 12 or 13 when she came into our lives with her toddler daughter, my sister! ❤) my step mom actually would take me shopping eithhout hesitation, with her sister and mom and included me in everything and finally got my brother's and I decent clothes for my dad's house. almost 20 years later she's still my step mom love her and my sister to death. ❤ but anyway yeah I was always packing a bag going back and forth bc for the longest time I didn't trust my favorite things to be left behind at my dad's house.
As a parent with shared custody and twins, the easiest thing we’ve done (we used to do what you do), my kids go to his house in clean clothes, as soon as they get there he puts them in an outfit that he’s gotten them, and the Sunday when they come home they’re back in the clothes I sent them over in. Kinda just an unspoken agreement him and I have.
you inspire me so much!!! im 26 years old still living in my moms house lmao you inspire me sm girly!!! i think its time for me to move out and start a cute family omg thats all i want rn lmao
A lot of kids with separate parents when they’re older, prefer not to have to take bags, it makes it easier. So both of you should have everything (doesn’t have to be the same) just so they feel at home in both places. You both have cars if they want a certain outfit, drive or they go without. Right now my Bd and I have our own clothes but he has taken a lot, and a lot of mine that I have not gotten back.
Idk why but I want to reach thru my phone and lean those pillows against your headboard like I do mine 😂 them being flat on the bed was bothering me more than it should have lol
Side note my son would go to his dads (Cali) during the summer 3 months from my place (Illinois) I would send him a laundry bag to help keep his clothes seperate from everyone else’s.
We only share underwear and socks but if there is something planned and she wants something from the other persons house we will just pack it and send it back!
Donate the dresses and as far as the clothes we just don’t worry about going back and for the with clothes. Sooner or later we get the ones we sent back it is too much to worry about
Honestly, I think the other parent should already have necessities for their kids even tho they would only use it a few days a week. I mean it only makes sense.
From an artist point of view, the duvet clashes with the rug. Try a Navy stripe instead or another color, rather than the check. Rule of three in decorating. Dominant color, a shade, a highlight.JS Otherwise Good job on the room.

I love it! I do hate putting on a fresh duvet! It’s like wrestling a bear!😅
Please do a home tour
Has Jake moved in?
You should donate your bridesmaid dresses to a local high school. So many teenage girls may not be able to afford prom gowns !
Loved having this on while I folded laundry! 1:13 During this one part the audio was too low and the music was too loud. 😕 Otherwise, good times!

helll yeah girl gett it hahahahhahaha
Maia you need to breath and look up to the sky💜💜
Save your bridesmaid dress and when your friend has a baby, sew her a tooth fairy pillow from the bridesmaid dress for the baby!
We only share underwear and socks but if there is something planned and she wants something from the other persons house we will just pack it and send it back!

Please make an Amazon storefront !! 🙏🙏
This says "with Jake" but he is literally nowhere in sight and no where to be heard. She said in the beginning he at his parents.
He comes in at 6min mark.
Watch video. He is absolutely there helping her and you do hear and see him 😅😂
@@dolliedennon6513 It's like...tell me you didn't watch the video without telling me you didn't watch the video 😂
See if there’s a program around you that takes donated dresses for girls for prom!
