please never stop doing these vlogs! the more random, the better! 😂 it was also great to see gigi, i missed her! she looks just like you two. sending love from california ❤️ have a fun trip!
My daughter turns 22 this year and yet I’m still fascinated hearing about all these awesome baby and toddler items. Plus listening to Jessica talk always soothes my nerves. ✨😊✨
Hi Jessica! It would be so interesting for you to do an update video to explain your thoughts about not accepting PR (as much)! I would love to hear any positives or negatives that have occurred as a result now that you have had some time to adjust 🥰
Gi Gi made me really laugh with her 'whats she's most excited about for the trip', and hey if it's true you're golden! She was funny at the end too, I swear she had something to say lol. Have a wonderful trip!
Truly the best tip I ever got for allergies is to eat a spoonful of local honey everyday! It does need to be local to where you live for it to work but it works amazingly well!!
OMG I was not expecting the Gigi responses to her road trip favorites🤣 absolutely LOL'ing! You think she doesn't hear the vlogs too much, oh but she does hear, she's so smart❣🤣❣
I love lists! I'll make lists for people even when I'm not going on the trip. Lol my parents got use to it and knew I always had lists for them when they went out of town. Lol p.s you're brave for bringing a noisy toy,the book, on a road trip! 😂 P.p.s Gigi had me dying with her answers. 😂
We’re about to take our 4 year old and 5 month old baby on a trip in a few weeks, so this vlog came in the perfect time to order all your must haves! You always have the best recommendations!
I’ve been away from YT for a few weeks while we moved across the country. This video was perfect first one back. Missed catching up on your vlogs which are my fave 😊
Jess, you may have said this vLOG was all over the place but I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it! Cannot wait to see the vLOG series from this trip!!!
Literally the best investment is the car camera for the baby. We bought one made specifically for the car then when it broke we bought just a simple normal cheap on since our car has a plug in the back seat and it works just as great!
The backseat camera is the best! We have the same/similar one, and it really helps on long drives! We do five hour drives twice per month, so this camera is such a big help!
I've traveled from CA to TX with a 6 y/o, 2 y/o, and infant twins. Packing list is a must. Even now with teenagers I send them a packing list. And one for myself too. We just finished up Phoenix Fan Fusion (comic convention) with a trip to Six Flags next weekend with our Girl Scout Troop and camping at the end of June.
Exactly what I'm going through!! Mine cluster feeds constantly literally aaaaallll day non stop! Its been like this for me since around week 3/4. She will wake around 9/10am and sleep around midnight. Don't worry this is my 4th, it's difficult and different each time but in the long run breastfeeding is the best! It gets so easy eventually. Don't stress just enjoy her whilst she's so cute and small and cuddley
jess! Contigo has a straw cup that has a seal inside the straw and is leak proof! my sister discovered it and loved it for nursing on the couch or anywhere there wasn’t a table close enough. i got one and love it so much
That bottle rack is awesome. Music is the best baby sitter for road trips. Allergies are rampant right now. Gigi is beautiful and so big. Great video Jessica and have a great, safe trip.
Your video brings back such vivid memories of navigating life after going from one to two children. I was nursing as well, and just felt so sleep deprived and zombie-like. You’re doing a great job - don’t worry about the mess and clutter. You will have time to clean later. My second ‘baby’ is about to go off to college and it feels like the years have just flown by. Hope your vacation is wonderful. 🥰
I think so too. My Samsung started squealing after only a year and it was under warranty so it was fixed. But then it started again about a year after that. We sold it with our house and decided no more Samsungs lol.
One thing that can help for irritated eyes during allergy season is a reusable gel eye pack that goes in the fridge/freezer. I find the cold is so soothing when my eyes are itchy and inflamed
Oh my gosh! Can you share the brand name of the makeup remover pen please? I loved the elf one but they have discontinued it, and have not seen any other like it until you just showed it here. Where can I get it? Thanks!
Have fun! I had to laugh when you mentioned the Essence Volume Stylist mascara, I was right in the middle of using it...lol. My fav too, thanks to you.
Such an enjoyable vlog! I’ll make some small list before a trip of oh I don’t want to forget this. This was so helpful to give me some ideas. I’m getting ready to start 6 weeks of radiation. I live to far to drive back and forth every day. Will only be coming home on the weekends. I am way more detailed packing for items and also easy solutions bags that I won’t have to unpack each weekend, like my makeup and hygiene products. I got all my samples and travel size items in a container that my hope is, will be super easy to swap out or add in new cleansers ( or whatever item) as I’m using them up. I’m assuming by the weekends I’ll be over all it and want easy simple solutions. I also packed a 31 utility tote to use as a laundry bag to keep the hotel room cleaner, but also just for that one bag to have laundry I need done. Not having to tear apart everyone’s suitcase when I get home. I’m sure by the end of the 6 weeks I’ll have this packing down to a science. Will know what is a waste of time or really helpful.
Lists are the way to go! I have lists for different events like camping, flying, road-trips lol etc. Also we got to finally go to Mackinaw Island last year and it was beautiful! Can’t wait for the vlogs! Were moving to Michigan at the end of the year so we’ll probably go often.
Your vlogs are my favorite go watch! And this packing video was fun to watch. I love packing for trips. Can’t wait to see the travel vlogs on Tyler’s channel.
When my girls were littles (my oldest just graduated high school today) McDonald’s pancakes saved many dinners when we traveled. They make them all times of the day and I just put a little butter on them, cut them into quarters, and they chowed down. No syrup was ever requested .
you are literally my favorite. watching your pre travel vlogs makes me want to constantly travel so thank you for that. YOU ARE DOING GREAT SWEETIE 💖💖💖💖💖💖
Is that the initial necklace you were wanting for Mother’s Day?! I have been wanting one for awhile now and was hoping you would share where yours is from, it’s beautiful!
Safe travels!! Gigi is super adorable. I agree with the comments about your dryer it’s probably the belt. Btw that cool-tone green top looks amazing against your skin tone! The difference between that and the yellowish in prior clip is like whoah. So beautiful on you!! Lovely! Again safe travels!!!
I love this perspective! Lol your burp cloths! My babies all had such tummy issues that we resorted to using receiving blankets for that;. Several a day sometimes. My youngest nurses every two hours at night for two years. Like clockwork. When my body finally gave out it was so traumatizing for both of us. Ahhh, those were the days... 😊 Enjoy your trip and travel safely!!
Live the chill vlog! I’m also happy you enjoy Michigan so much! I’ve lived here my whole life and love it, but I haven’t visited Mackinac Island in a long time! And side not, my husband and I were just talking about taking a trip to your neck of the woods to go to the Sweetwater music store in Indianapolis! 🎸🎹
📌📌📍📌📌 FYI: our dryer started making the squeaking noises and someone told us that WD 40 helps by spraying it inside where the belt/drum meets the metal…. It definitely works but squeaking will eventually come back and ultimately we needed a new dryer, but it saved us like 6 months….. our dryer was older but apparently on the inside of drum there is a foam thing that prevents the metal on metal touch and it just disintegrated …… hopefully this helps!!📌📌📍📍📍
Love your packing videos. Super helpful. Going on a trip soon & almost forgot to pack my rain poncho. Thanks for saving me. ❤️Absolutely love Mackinaw Island. My Mom’s from MI, fond memories as a kid of entire extended family spending vacations there.
So excited! I never get to watch your videos when you first post them. Also I ALWAYS make packing lists before a trip. I am a late person. Edit: LIST person. Though I am also a late person.
We love Mackinac Island! Hoping to go there again soon, last time we went , it was in the middle of July and it was cold and foggy lol I hope it’s warm when we go again
Yay more travel vlogs!!! Loved this video as we are traveling soon too. Thanks for all the links. Gigi was so cute at the end making faces and looking so disinterested. BTW our little girl is Genevieve as well. Safe travels! ❤️
Instead of folding the burl cloths, roll them. You will get more space in your bag. Maybe even use a ziploc bag to put them in, plus if it’s soiled, it can be stored there.
I was so distracted in the end because I didn't see a stroller in the back! I can't wait to see the next vlog so I can confirm whether it was forgotten. I hope not! LOVE these videos!
Love this vlog. I have 4 kids and i can relate to the packing and organising part! Definitely going to do a list as i just chuck things in lol. Have an amazing time xx
Hi jessica where is the black bag that you are using to put all the makeup that you are traveling with from? Im looking for a bag to put all my makeup that i can travel with.Love your videos❤️
Your nail color is so pretty. And please stop worrying about “over explaining”. I want to know your thoughts!
please never stop doing these vlogs! the more random, the better! 😂 it was also great to see gigi, i missed her! she looks just like you two. sending love from california ❤️ have a fun trip!
Heads up, the GPS directions in the car around 31:19 pinpoint the area around where you live with more specificity than you probably want!
My daughter turns 22 this year and yet I’m still fascinated hearing about all these awesome baby and toddler items. Plus listening to Jessica talk always soothes my nerves. ✨😊✨
Yes! Her voice is soothing ❤️
Gi Gi was Soooo funny behind you!!🤣 She's a doll. Y'all have a safe and super fun trip! See ya on Taylor's channel. 🥰
Packing is my Achilles heal. The list is a great idea. Gigi was so adorable sitting in her pink chair in the middle of the bathroom talking to mommy!
I don’t have kids, and I loved this video. You looked so authentic with no makeup and messy bun and no sponsored content. fave fave fave fave
For having no makeup, and little sleep… you are beautiful!!
Hi Jessica! It would be so interesting for you to do an update video to explain your thoughts about not accepting PR (as much)! I would love to hear any positives or negatives that have occurred as a result now that you have had some time to adjust 🥰
I'm in Michigan and I can vouch that you definitely have to pack for all four seasons all year round. Hopefully the weather is good for you🔆
Can you PLEASE make printable lists for us to download??? I really like the look of yours 🤗🙏❤️
Anybody else notice Jess’s nails match her shirt perfectly at the end
Gi Gi made me really laugh with her 'whats she's most excited about for the trip', and hey if it's true you're golden! She was funny at the end too, I swear she had something to say lol. Have a wonderful trip!
I agree, Gigi really had something yo say 🤣🤣
@@magalyalbanecich758 eeeeee
Truly the best tip I ever got for allergies is to eat a spoonful of local honey everyday! It does need to be local to where you live for it to work but it works amazingly well!!
Same, that and local honey comb

Watching this while I am packing for a road trip. So perfect. 🧡
"what are you excited for?"
"My iPad" 😂😂😂😂
This video is so helpful on some of the travel friendly gadgets & on what to get for you baby to toddler transition.
I’ve been away from YT for a few weeks while we moved across the country. This video was perfect first one back. Missed catching up on your vlogs which are my fave 😊
I just love how you refer to the girls as "little Miss Gigi" or "sweet little felicity" it's so lovely and intimate ❤️❤️
Jess, you may have said this vLOG was all over the place but I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it! Cannot wait to see the vLOG series from this trip!!!
Sunday on the front porch with a dog, birds are chirping and hanging out with Jessica. Perfect!
Is this comment really from Jessica?
@@joannawarrens5117 It's an imposter scam. Do not give them any information, report the comment for spam instead!
I got one to now the reply scam message is suddenly gone.
Literally the best investment is the car camera for the baby. We bought one made specifically for the car then when it broke we bought just a simple normal cheap on since our car has a plug in the back seat and it works just as great!
Getting ready for my summer ROADTRIP from NY to Florida, and a cruise, so we've been checking of those lists too!! Have fun!
The backseat camera is the best! We have the same/similar one, and it really helps on long drives! We do five hour drives twice per month, so this camera is such a big help!
I also use the clear IKEA bags that zip for dirty clothes.

Gigi’s little yawn in the back…. Adorable 🥰 love to watch you both so much! 🖤 hope your trip was great
I have the doona, they have attachment storage you can purchase for them. I wish I could post pictures to show you. I would look into that.
jess! Contigo has a straw cup that has a seal inside the straw and is leak proof! my sister discovered it and loved it for nursing on the couch or anywhere there wasn’t a table close enough. i got one and love it so much
That bottle rack is awesome. Music is the best baby sitter for road trips.
Allergies are rampant right now.
Gigi is beautiful and so big. Great video Jessica and have a great, safe trip.
hi jessica! just curious if you had your packing list as something printable! looks very useful. Thank you!
I have a travel bag I leave packed too. We can take a trip with little time to pack. I refill my empties a days after a trip.
Your video brings back such vivid memories of navigating life after going from one to two children. I was nursing as well, and just felt so sleep deprived and zombie-like. You’re doing a great job - don’t worry about the mess and clutter. You will have time to clean later. My second ‘baby’ is about to go off to college and it feels like the years have just flown by. Hope your vacation is wonderful. 🥰
You might just need a new belt for your dryer! Mine was squealing a lot and it turned out to just need a new belt. Pretty cheap fix even with labor.
I think so too. My Samsung started squealing after only a year and it was under warranty so it was fixed. But then it started again about a year after that. We sold it with our house and decided no more Samsungs lol.
Have a lovely trip Jessica 😘
Quick question ...did you try cleaning or washing the sponge that comes with the MUFE powder foundation???
Many would say I overpack but I like to have my stuff with me. Making do with just a few things is just too stressful. Hope your trip was wonderful!
Same Tyler! My allergies are killing me! I couldn’t decide if I had a cold or allergies at first. Stuffy, sneezing, and watery eyes!
One thing that can help for irritated eyes during allergy season is a reusable gel eye pack that goes in the fridge/freezer. I find the cold is so soothing when my eyes are itchy and inflamed
Oh my gosh! Can you share the brand name of the makeup remover pen please? I loved the elf one but they have discontinued it, and have not seen any other like it until you just showed it here. Where can I get it? Thanks!
I heard you're suppose to start taking allergy medication about 2 weeks before it begins bc it takes a few weeks to kick in fully. Have a great trip!
Another good idea is to take your dose at night so the levels are peak in the morning 🌄
Yes! I have to start it about a month before pollen season starts and then I'm good to go
Have fun! I had to laugh when you mentioned the Essence Volume Stylist mascara, I was right in the middle of using it...lol. My fav too, thanks to you.
I'm going to purchase some too! I was just thinking whats Jessica's fav mascara? I thought I was going to have to go view a past video lol, but nope
You can actually get a similar travel case to your pink one on thirtyone. My mom sells it and I have one and love it so much!
Such an enjoyable vlog!
I’ll make some small list before a trip of oh I don’t want to forget this. This was so helpful to give me some ideas.

My 3 year old absolutely loves that 100 animals/sounds book. We have a couple of versions and he uses them all the time!

So glad to see someone else who makes a detailed packing list!
you are literally my favorite. watching your pre travel vlogs makes me want to constantly travel so thank you for that. YOU ARE DOING GREAT SWEETIE 💖💖💖💖💖💖
Girl yuuuuuup. I always feel like I've completed some insane Olympic event after I've finished packing for the kids. They need so many random things.
Jess! The next time you do a Thrive Market sponsored video you should do a favorites video of what you get on Thrive Market!
Is that the initial necklace you were wanting for Mother’s Day?! I have been wanting one for awhile now and was hoping you would share where yours is from, it’s beautiful!
I love a road trip, hope all goes well!!
Safe travels!! Gigi is super adorable. I agree with the comments about your dryer it’s probably the belt. Btw that cool-tone green top looks amazing against your skin tone! The difference between that and the yellowish in prior clip is like whoah. So beautiful on you!! Lovely! Again safe travels!!!
Hope you will do a comparison of the old and new version of the Missha BB cream
Have a safe and fun trip!! I just went to Mackinac Island for the first time this past fall and absolutely LOVED it there!
I love this perspective! Lol your burp cloths! My babies all had such tummy issues that we resorted to using receiving blankets for that;. Several a day sometimes. My youngest nurses every two hours at night for two years. Like clockwork. When my body finally gave out it was so traumatizing for both of us. Ahhh, those were the days... 😊
Enjoy your trip and travel safely!!
That baby packing list already got me thinking about my road trip with my 4 month old in July! Thanks!
Packing lists for little kids is a must!!
My brain is mush after having kids! 😅
Live the chill vlog! I’m also happy you enjoy Michigan so much! I’ve lived here my whole life and love it, but I haven’t visited Mackinac Island in a long time!
And side not, my husband and I were just talking about taking a trip to your neck of the woods to go to the Sweetwater music store in Indianapolis! 🎸🎹
You have a beautiful family and you seem to be great parents! Gigi is getting so tall! Safe travels!
Love these vlogs just as much as your regular videos.

Yeah you just replace that foam.
Watching this after my 3rd shower in 24hours. Totally feeling the pain of seasonal allergies.
Love your packing videos. Super helpful. Going on a trip soon & almost forgot to pack my rain poncho. Thanks for saving me. ❤️Absolutely love Mackinaw Island. My Mom’s from MI, fond memories as a kid of entire extended family spending vacations there.
I love how Gigi thinks I'll play with my surprises
So excited! I never get to watch your videos when you first post them. Also I ALWAYS make packing lists before a trip. I am a late person. Edit: LIST person. Though I am also a late person.
Have a great vacation!!!! Love all the new baby items that you have and are now available for parents.
We love Mackinac Island! Hoping to go there again soon, last time we went , it was in the middle of July and it was cold and foggy lol I hope it’s warm when we go again
Hey Jess, can you tell us what kind of car seat are you using for Gigi? Looks very safe and comfy
Hi i am New from Holland.And i like youre videos .They are so much fun and real.Thank you.And congrats whit youre beautyfull second baby.
Your vlogs are fabulous!! A good packing video is amazing!!! You Rock! Hope the trip is/was fun! Blessings to you! ✌️💚🙏
I love your eyeglasses. What are they called? Thanks! 💜
My son has a couple of those vtech books you got and he still loves them!
Literally just was hoping for a random upload from you 😭
Crayola has mess free colouring pages that the markers only work on that paper which is super helpful. Maybe look into that for Gigi
That’s so exciting you’re coming to where I live! I hope you can enjoy nice weather here ! Love you guys 💜😘 love you videos as always!!
That makeup remover pen where do you get it from?
GiGi’s little cameo😍😍😍 hope you have a great trip!❤️
Gigi sitting so quiet and cute at the back wondering who parents are talking to 😁♥️
Can you link the necklace you have on with your green t shirt ?? Love it 🥰 have fun on your road-trip
So real. Love it!! I've learned so much about packing & travel items from you!
Have a fun vacation
Would love to know how the doona worked out on your trip!! 38 weeks pregnant and still considering buying it as we love to travel
I enjoyed this so much and Iam not going anywhere and I for sure do not have any youngsters. I hope you had a fabulous trip and made good memories 🌸🌸🥰
I have 2 weddings in the same month (1 is my daughter other is best friend) I hear ya about stressed out
Yay more travel vlogs!!! Loved this video as we are traveling soon too. Thanks for all the links. Gigi was so cute at the end making faces and looking so disinterested. BTW our little girl is Genevieve as well. Safe travels! ❤️
Just gonna put it out there... i love it when Jess over explains things 😅🤣

Ok, but where can I get those slipper socks??
Great Vlog! Safe travels, can't wait to see the travel vlog on Tyler's channel!
