If you are putting a door into the living room you want the light switch on the side without the hinges. You don’t want to walk into the room and have to close the door to turn the lights on! Crispy bacon is the best no floppy bacon!
We're A crispy bacon household!🤗
Billy needs to be in the intro ❤
I’m sure she’ll get to it in her “spare time” 😂
Trent when your wife admires your biceps - smile and accept the compliment❤
My Mom did daycare in her home for more than 32 years. She always told me that babies who slept with their hands up by their heads, like Billy was doing in your opening shots, were incredibly healthy. I have no idea if that’s true or a wives tale, but my heart melted when I saw him sleeping like that. I lost my Mom just over two years ago. Thank you for the memory.
There is nothing as precious as babies sleeping, then waking up with a smile, all cuddly and warm and fuzzy 🥹🥰
Trent is definitely a builder . . I was a framing carpenter for seven years and I couldn't plumb or do electrical or drive heavy machinery . . he's a "Trent of all Trades"
Love that name for him. My partner is an electrician I can't do anything with would lol
Allie, a the rule of thumb is: when you stay up with the baby at night, you also take naps in the day when the baby naps. Enjoy being a mother and enjoy a nap!
You should get a piece of lumber and attach it to the wall to mark the boys height. When my daughter sold their house they were so sad to leave that behind. Her kids were almost grown but that was always a regret. When they moved in they didn’t anticipate ever moving.
Well, because in this video it has been confirmed that Trent is "a builder" . . . he could certainly remove and replace that piece of door trim if and when they ever sell this home.
Or, hopefully you are using the measuring board Larry and Sharon sent you!
So glad that final tub pipe sat correctly. Building a house is a chore, correcting mistakes is a bore. Doing it right is a SCORE!
No he did it wrong...the pipe to use goes over the OUTSIDE of the floor mount... not the inside!

From here it looks like a combo fitting which is a 2" spigot as well as a 1.5" hub.
@@Janer-52 OMG!
Are you a poet?
Huh? Didn’t know it?
Did his feet show it?
Are they ‘Longfellows’?
( All in good fun, friend!)

This is the very best channel.
Today, for music, we got bluegrass, funk, country, rock, jazz…
Two adorable children…
A whole bunch of people that are all nice enough to be my best friends…
A story that took me half way around the world, built a family, and a sprawling dream house in the mountains…
And this story will never end!…………😊…………………………..
When my husband and I bought our first and only home,it was only 690 square feet. Some years past and we added an 18×20 room on. The contractor finished all of his rough in on Christmas eve day. That evening we put a heater out there to warm it up and we set up the Christmas tree,out our couch and chairs out and enjoyholidayChristmas season. After the holidays were cover,we spent everything evening and weekend working on that rooms, electrial, heating and cooling, insulation,drywall,paint and flooring. That will be a Christmas I'll never forget!!!

Billy is stealing the show right now - super sweet ❤
Trent reminds me so much of my father - an electrician one minute, a plumber the next, then a roofer, then a motor mechanic, then a plasterer, a tiler, then a carpenter. It's a fascinating life as a child, to watch all those trades (and more) in one person - daily. Very exciting actually and comforting to know your father can fix anything. (But very hard to find a husband with the same abilities.)❤
😂 my daughter got me a mug, "if Dad can't fix it we are all screwed"
It's not hard to do all that stuff, you just have to think it's important enough to bother. Most guys would rather put all kinds of brain resources into memorizing football stats so they can appear "learned" with their other narrowly skilled friends. I teach my daughter to do useful stuff and because her husband won't learn to be handy she assigns him duties like cleaning and organizing and shuttling the kids to and from games and school, etc. Almost a role reversal, at least in part. He still brings the paychecks. But of course I have to fix, maintain, and build everything. So I go help her out while I still can.
@elgringoec That's great. My father helped me out for quite a few years after marriage, but I tended to take over then as he had taught me to do so many things. He should have had a son. I renovated every house I owned. And some I didn't. Loved it. Still try at 77 l, but it's a lot harder now.
@my2cworth4U
Do what you can! Harder doesn't mean a need to give up. Adjust pace. I have a son also. My kids are super capable; sure I'm more knowledgeable over a wider range of trades but their interests also go places mine don't. But we do all we can to help our kids and grandkids get ahead.
@my2cworth4U Aw, don't devalue yourself! Girl or boy, you inherited your dad's abilities. He didn't need a son, he had you to carry on his skills!
I am in the crispy bacon camp! Greetings from snowless Helsinki!
It is so hard to imagine that Leo used to be that little. I agree with Allie, bacon should be crispy!😊
That ceiling is GORGEOUS! Nice choice!
I'm with you Allie. Crispy bacon all the way!
Absolutely... Crispy Crispy Bacooooon ...
My favorite way to cook crispy bacon is in the air fryer on 400 degrees for 8 minutes! Perfecto!
Me too. I can’t eat limp bacon
The bacon looked perfect, not rubbery, not burnt!
Trent is so hard on himself, yet he can do everything and does it well!
Hugs from 🇨🇦
Leo has a great imagination. He is so silly. Leka was having fun with that snow and ice. Had me laughing.😂😂😂
I would be giving Billy a little Rice cereal for his last feeding, either in his bottle or feeding him some. I would also be prepared with some prune juice incase he gets constipated but if you make it runny enough he should be fine. Babies are all different and he might need that extra.
60 years later and I still remember cooking with my mom, the memories that remain are priceless
Billy’s face is so expressive. He is getting bigger and soon he will be rolling over.
oh my gosh Leo on his tippy toes cracked us up! With ya Allie on the bacon:) house is looking amazing!!!!
A little Leo and Billy joy is a wonderful way to start off my week. Thank you!
Trent & Allie, count yourselves BLESSED to have such an AMAZING crew..... Brandon, Grayson and Jennifer.
Leo & Billy are absolutely thriving❤
Cook the bacon for Trent, then put your pieces between paper towels and microwave for 30 seconds until they are your favorite crispy. :)
Air fryer is a better way, lol
Billy is so adorable sleeping in the bed with his hands up by his head. Leo is getting so big. Love his energy.
What will you do with the house in the valley? Will you decorate both homes for Christmas? You’re so lucky. It’s such a young age to have two homes. You guys work hard. You deserve it.
Crisp 🥓
Love the ongoing humor between you guys. Re Trent shak8ng his jingling toolbelt, and I hear " That's how we know where Trent's at." 😂
Trent, I used to love crispy bacon, but my husband loves it very limp. Now I have been transformed, like it limp. And the comment that those paper airplanes are like Boeing was funny!!
I'm team crispy (not burned). Leo is so adorable, love his creative play.
In 4 years, Trent has gone from building janky greenhouses to luxury homes. So yeah, he's come a long way!! 💪
Good morning folks! Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving ❤
On my hallway light switch, it’s on the right side on my way to my bedroom but my left side going to my living room 😉👊🏼
Trent is correct about the light switches and dead wrong about his bacon 😂
Totally I think of the guy in Dances with Wolves with the raw bacon. Lol
If you can bend my bacon, it isn't done. I also like my eggs broken and over hard!
Allie, my middle kid sleep for 45 minutes, was up for 4hours round the clock till he was three. It was hell on earth but we both survived.
You are worked so hard. Thanks for the footage!
Ali, you should sleep when Billy sleeps. If he takes a nap you should take a nap. If Billy doesn’t sleep at night, you should let him stay in his crib. You can let him fuss. Begin with 5 minutes and increase to 15. Also, if you are drinking coffee then he will also get the stimulant, too. Good luck.
You're definitely right about the coffee! Unless they've changed their opinion, rule #1, while nursing is NO caffeine. I bet that's a lot of why he's not sleeping much.
Allie, you live in the woods! You have moved in to their habitat! Get used to critters on the roof. ! LOL!
Don't forget... when you leave the room, the switch will be operated by the opposite hand, so it evens out.
Leo is still one of the cutest kids I've ever seen. Music lessons now!🤩
Good morning everyone ❤
Hey Allie, as a Mum of 5 (now adult) children, as an ex Nursing Mother's Counselor (In Australia), and a retired nurse, I can say that it's normal for Billy to go through periods of change in routine. Some people suggest adding some solid food. That's not my suggestion if you wish to keep fully breast feeding for a long period. Once you start to introduce other foods you have started the weaning process. Obviously, that's fine if that's what you want to do. If you don't though, you can try feeding a bit more often during his wake times, this will help to increase your milk supply (supply and demand - the more demand, the more milk you will make). Again, this is normal to go through adjustment periods especially in the first 6-9 months. It's tough having to get through the lack of sleep issues. I ended up doing 12 years of that, so I certainly understand. You are doing a phenomenal job as a Mum and it's great you have some help from Jennifer. Sending hugs. 🤗
Great advice!
I love how you played the 70’s music with the plumbing glue.
You both got lucky, because good friends and especially family are everything.
What a Epic Moment Allie seeing Trent n Baby Billy ❤ both on their back sleeping 😊 little Leo is growing! I would be looking everywhere if I her a animal.squeak in my house 😮stay warm yall
having you upload a video where leo sings happy birthday on my actual birthday is so cute lol
Sleeping Billy in the opening scene he was SO angelic! 🫢😊 Leo was incredibly cute being on his toes!! 😆 Allie no sleep for the wicked?? 🤩 Light switches are usually opposite door hinge for obvious reasons?🤔 ❤
I think your skills have become better, as you have been working on the addition. So Grasshopper, you have come a long from your humble beginnings to where you are now. Looking good. Billy is a blessing to your family. Cutie as a button. Thank you for your videos.
I love the captions of Leo's words 😍
The morning routine today, reminded me of the Van Day mornings. Somehow, watching a "Slow Living" moment brings great inner joy and peace.
I, too, was having my coffee and breakfast. ...watching the birds and squirrels outside with my kitties inside.
Just curating space to take in deep breath work; watch something encouraging; read a devotional---to set the day's start with good intentions!❤
Thank you Leo for singing happy birthday 🎂 to me today. You are the only one on this earth 🌎 to acknowledge my birthday today, even though you don't know I am 65 today. 🎉❤😊
Happy birthday
🎂Happy Birthday🎉
Happy Birthday🎂🎉
yes happy birthday to you.
Happy birthday to you I know how you feel 😢
More great progress!!!😊🎉❤
Leo singing a Happy Birthday song! So very cute!🥰❤️
We had sounds like chirps and scratching in our attic wall that turned out to be bats. We saw them at Twilight one evening flying out. Hopefully, you don't have them like we did.
Happy Monday Morning ❤
Pets are definitely family and you guys have 2 awesome dogs. I just want to give them a hug thru the screen. :)
Love the wood on the ceiling. Just beautiful.
We took advantage of the dog food promotion and ordered for the next month supplies. Now we are off to the pet shop to look at some potential dogs to buy. So nice to see just how much your dogs are part of the family.
There's some awesome dogs at the resues
CookingAroundTheWorld. Why buy from a shop RSPCA has lots of lovely dogs that desperately need a home.
@@angelapietras1235 no one buys dog food before buying a dog, therefore it must be a joke.
It's all starting to look real good, guys!!!!
CRISPY!
Billy was sacked out!! 😂❤
15:37 Personally, I would keep the big wall, going up the steps, clear of anything that will catch all the furniture, mattresses and clothes baskets from getting snagged on it. I'm right handed too!😂
Sorry Trent. I’m with Allie in the crispy bacon camp.
I like my bacon crispy also.
Team Trent! 😊
Bacon; crispy not burnt
Just this side of burnt for me! The ceilings look great. Leo's speech is getting better each week.
Team Trent here
Yes, the ceiling looks so good and Billie is the cutest baby.
Good Morning!! ❤happy Monday y’all
Oh I’m with you allie definitely crispy anything else isn’t cooked 😂 sending love from uk
You are almost there bro, your home is looking amazing 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾👍👍👍👍👍❤️🏡🏠👦🍼👶
Allie your haircut looks fabulous! SO healthy and all those gorgeous curls are back (from one curly girl to another) :D
“Dude Christmas is like in five days”, lol!!! Allie is always the optimist while Trent is always the realist!
Thanks!
Melt in your mouth crispy bacon gets my vote! The living room looks great with the wood ceiling! Billy and Leo can’t be cuter! 🤣🤣. Allie and her wreath!! That was sweet for Trent to fix Allie a coffee because “she’s a diva”! We can all use that extra shot of energy! It will be so nice when you can finally move in! Think of all the work that’s been done….WOW!! Trent deserves his title of builder….and so do Branden and Grayson!! You have all done stellar work! Love from Pennsylvania 💕🌷🐻
Four Months old? My Full-sized babies took 2-3 naps a day at that age not 4. He is going to change up your schedule now, and his. This happened with all 3 of my littles. Time to put him in a walker/excer-saucer so that he starts to tire himself out at night time.
I am a great grandmother and I’ve kept track of grandkids growth on the inside of a closet door using a line of painters tape for each child.
I just remeasured the two great grand kids at their instance. Even the older grandkids enjoy looking at their increase in heights.
Ur ceiling looks awsome. ❤
My mom told me that I was a terrible child to raise because I never slept. That's why she was happy when i learned to read and could amuse myself without bothering everyone else. I still only sleep 5 hours at a time.
This could have been my post except I’m either a different generation or you had more sympathetic parents. My mother trained me not to get out of bed or cry out when it was dark outside even before I could read. I do remember waiting for my parents to go to bed so that I could turn on a light to read.
@davidgiffen6349 i was born in 1953 and have always been quiet. I remember watching both movies at the drive in and after midnight helping my parents bring blankets and pillows into the house while they carried my siblings in. Then getting up before 6 to wait for the test pattern to go off and Felix the Cat to come on. As an adult I liked working the graveyard shift and being awake when the sun came up.
I'm right there with you, two. I've always been a nightowl by nature. I was born in 1950. I did love to read. But my other favorite thing was my little Hitachi transistor radio, with its one ear plug. I lived in KS, so I had to tune it to the nearest "clear channel" station that was in Chicago, and was on the air all night long. Eventually I'd get sleepy and sleep a few hours before I had to be up for school. I was always the last one to fall asleep at slumber parties. When my kids were growing up I had to force myself to go to bed earlier so I could get them up in time. But now that they're gone and I'm totally retired I'm back to being able to follow my natural time clock. Some of us just don't need as much sleep as others I think! 😊
Me and my house ALL go for crispy bacon..and I'm left handed, but I live in a house with switches on no particular side, so no matter which side coming thru a doorway, you get used to the location and use them as is, no big deal. With lights so high, I hope Trent remembered to install some electrical outlets in the floor for furniture that will NOT be against the walls. The house is coming together beautifully. THANKS for sharing.
❤ Everything looks beautiful ❤
Just a thought maybe you could put heaters outside by the back door....
What a sweet way to start the video. Kinda like a Hallmark movie. 😍
Great new music Allie!
I'm with Trent and his choice of non burnt bacon!
Also- I LOVE SEEING FRANK!!!!!!
I so look forward to you Monday and Friday videos. Thank you again for sharing you adventures with us.
Good morning ☀️
The kids are getting so big and cuter and the house in the mountains is coming together and before you know it you will be using this as living space … it is going to be beautiful ❤️❤️🤗🤗🙏🙏
Everyone likes to "move it move it". We watch the credits all the way thru so we can sing and dance with my 5 year old niece.
Leo is getting so big you know we grow three times our size only one time in our life and that is the first year of our life❤💙
Allie, I’m with you on the crispy bacon. I had to laugh, there was a moment on this video that Trent reminded me of Yukon Cornelius from Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer…with his ski cap and beard…lol
I slept in my crib until I was 5. I was very petite, but knew the next move was sleeping with my sister. Was not ideal. Billy is the most chill baby I have witnessed in a very long time. You so got lucky on him, cute, sweet disposition and I do not remember hearing him cry. In a few years it will be interesting to see the interaction between the boys.
Good to see you guys back in the house. Was just thinking about. When you moved up there in the camper. Man its come a long ways. Thanks for sharing. Much love. God Bless
Our Bradford Rudolph Christmas Village has been up since last Christmas. I paid enough for the Village Houses etc. and figured I could keep them up rather than storing in the basement.
Good morning family. The first 5 minutes of this video is very magical and the music that song fills the heart the whole scenario of the first 5 minutes I loved it. And of course the rest of the video is epic as well as always lol. Happy Monday guys see you on Friday❤❤❤❤
Hello!!! I don't know if you will see this Allie, but here goes... Next time you want to make bacon try this. Line a cookie sheet with foil. Set oven to 400. Line the pan with desired amount of strips. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes. Check periodically since all ovens may be different. Perfect bacon, no mess, no fuss, and way less clean up. I have shared this with lots of family and friends. As far as I know they ALL do it this way now. Your Welcome..... Hope you see this post. ❤❤❤❤
16:55 that is an inward opening LH door, so the switch has to be on the right. Also, you're looking into the room to your right, so the switch has to be on the right 😉
Otherwise you will always have to close the door or walk around it before you can turn on the light.
That is only an opening from a hallway into the room. There will be no door. That is what started the whole question of which side, as if there was a door they would obviously put it on the correct side, but without a door, there is a choice.
I love "crispy" bacon too! The family likes it "not so crispy".
They make fun of me with a "crunching sound".😁
I loved watching Leeka having fun in the snow.❤
I hope Billy can get a good sleep schedule. My daughter never slept either. I was a walking zombie for the first year of her life and when she was a little older, her naps lasted about 15 minutes and then no nap at all. Other kids were napping 3 hours, not my girl.
It can be exhausting, but a beautiful blessing at the same time. That time passes by so quickly and all the sudden they are 20! 😊
Billy is getting his caffeine too!
Trent, your hair looks great!!! It suits you well!!!😊 The boys are beautiful ❤️...😊
Trent,
Compromise put in a 3 way switch and that way there's a switch on bothsides of the door.😂
Good morning! I used to sleep extremely well and deeply until I had multiple hospitalizations in 2010-2015 and I developed insomnia as a result. I'm lucky to sleep2-3 hours before waking up. If I hear anything I wake up and I rarely can go back to sleep. I have earplugs and a fan that help to block the noise which have helped a lot. The sunlight on Leo's hair really brought out the red tint in his hair. It will be interesting to see how it changes over the years.
I learned something this weekend that might interest you and Trent. Apparently wasps and hornets are attracted to the smell of propane which was why they were going crazy to get into the vent and pipes going to the furnace and even the vent for the stove and oven and anything else that is run off the propane.
I don't eat bacon anymore, but when I was at a restaurant, I would always tell them to "BURN it." I didn't actually want burnt bacon, but if I didn't say that, I ALWAYS got it back with chewy bits that I couldn't chew and would wind up spitting out -- what a loss!! Glad you realized (for next time) that you can just keep cooking yours until it's how you want it. LOL!! You guys are so funny! Also, little Billy is looking JUST like Leo and it's the cutest, cutest, most precious! Brothers! Gotta love it!
Billy wants to be snuggled in with mom and dad
In a room the switch goes on the side a door opens. It generally applies to the openings or throughways.
I'm pretty sure they are not putting up a door, which is reason for the debate on which side the light switch should go on.
@ in most houses all plates (light switch) are usually all the same. In this case it is where he has the wire in the wall.
@@sandrachristensen7282 If they are not putting up a door the light switch should be on the side you walk to when entering. If you turn right most of the time it is more practical to put it on the right side. If you turn to the left the left side is the right side. ;-)
