As somebody who recently had 2 under 2, I can’t tell you how hard I laughed when Matt truly believes that they could make it home by 5. I learned that lesson the hard way too 😂😂
So lovely how you both treat each other. Saying thank you for everything one normally would take for granted. Especially as a family with kids it is So important to be each other’s biggest supporters. You’re a great role model ✨💕and I wish u just the best also for everyone else reading this
When I drove from Florida to Arizona, for a travel nursing assignment, we hit the dessert mountains in Az. And I was awestruck at their beauty! I was nearing the time to stop for the night, and the sunset was unreal beauty. Haunting but also, I thought historic! How many travelers saw this on their way from the East to the west and saw this beauty, pretty much unchanged except for natures hands, I was humbled and knew that now a days, humans do not always stop and appreciate and enjoy the beauty that is here. Thank you, for admiring the mountains vistas!
You guys are such great parents! I love the fact that your not only protecting your children but your also doing it while giving us amazing content and doing what you guys love! So many family bloggers don’t know where the boundary is to where they’re going to far privacy wise for their kids and it causes them a traumatic childhood and future and you guys are doing everything to prevent that and that’s what I really love about you guys in particular!
I agree theyre doing it better, but its definitely still damaging. Imagine leaving the hotel with your parents and you're excited to go somewhere and they make you wait while they set up a camera in the hall. Then make you get back in the elevator after they setup a camera to reimagine the excitement, consistently talk to their phone screen instead of you. While it's great they're not showing their kids faces, they are exploiting their lives and making it about them. As a parent, my best time with my kids is when I'm not working and just with them...but as they say all the time they're always filming and working.
Ya'll are such amazing parents!! 2 kids under 2 and somehow ya'll are still surviving on little to no sleep, literally amazing!! Griffin and Auggie are adorable :) I've been watching ya'll since before Griffin was even born and now ya'll have 2 kids! The freak..... I love ya'll so so much, keep on being amazing x!!
I literally always click and watch all of your videos. I don’t even think about it anymore lol! Glad you guys made it home safe & LOL at Griffin hugging the bench and avoiding hugging dad twice. Such a toddler thing to do!
I know that route well. I-8 from San Diego, crossing into AZ via Yuma. Then on to the split where you choose either Tucson or Pheonix. Normally about 7 hrs from SD to Pheonix. Love that drive.
I absolutely love how one second y’all are talking about wine and a bath and then literally Abby got what she wanted haha. Love it. Cute real life vlog!
I usually just drive for the longest time I can and leave kids alone if they are sleeping and feed when they wake up and feed them as someone is driving! ❤ love y’all.
I like how they respect their kids privacies online. It's a good practice to have in the days of social media, where lots of things are easily accessible. They made the decision after their second child was born, and fully supportive of that 😃
Matt you are so funny Griffin has your humor to such a wonderful family Abby your a great mom such a blessing how Matt helps so much you guys need a feed wks alone on a vacation just you two god bless
I love watching these videos, gives me daily motivation with my baby. Too, we will have 2 under 2 come August ‘24. I’ll still be doing it on my own as my hubby works full time, 12h days, at 6 days a week. Putting it to the universe ✨ for a placid baby #2 ! 💕
Yes, most of starbucks food is frozen. The only ones that are worth it are the Vanilla Bean Mini Scones. And you can call ahead and pre order several dozen sheets for baby showers 😉. The egg muffins are very good but they can be easily made at home. I need to learn to make the scones now and I'll be good. My coffee is already better than Starbucks and thats not hard. Lol Matt-- as another parent terrified of my kid choking, y'all need to invest in a Lifevac and keep it in the car/house or with you. I saw a man use one on another customer's choking child and it worked instantly.
I really respect that you guys have taken Griffin and Auggie “out” of your videos. It’s so fun to still see your life while you maintain their privacy! Kudos ❤
They didn't do it by choice. They got called out on the dad podcast & a lot of hate for using them & exploiting them for views. He calls out all parents who do that. When he did them they stopped showing their kids
They definitely did do it by choice. Maybe hearing his point of view helped change their mind but they didn’t have to listen to him and take them out. Very many other TH-camrs don’t care or don’t agree and don’t take their kids out of their videos.
@@riverviewrescue1371 Of course they did it by choice. With all due respect, even if they made the choice because they were encouraged it can still be celebrated. People are allowed to make mistakes and do better. Do you know how many influencers get crap every day for exploitation of their kids? Most of those people still use the same content. I’m a big fan of people who acknowledge they can do something in a better way and then do it ❤
@@estherlichtman1168But they didn't do anything til called out and the kids aren't out though. They just blur their faces. They are still in a lot of videos and being embarrassed & every other video title is 2 kids under 2 So still using them. Be better if completely took them off, never showed them in first place. Went back to old wholesome videos. When those kids are older can hear from millions of people the embarrassing stuff they did. Kids get bullied enough.
@@connorg.563 but all they've done is blur their faces. They're still in videos. Every other video title is 2 kids under 2 to get views. So still exploiting. And then sharing all embarrassing stuff they do online. They never should've shown them or completely taken them off and not needed a stranger to have to tell parents they're being bad parents.
It would be AWESOME if You Two could invest in an RV so travelling in the US would be a fantastic event!!! You'd have a refrigerator, stove, bathroom, beds, comfort ALL the time and it would be so much fun!!! The Kids would LOVE IT as they grow up!!! You could take turns driving and work on Your Videos and keep the laptop out while You are on the road. Plus no more hotel payments, no more money for quick fast snacks because You would pack them up before You left!!! You could also have Your bikes with You!!! Think about it!!! I grew up with a family who did this and at age 61 they are still some of my BEST MEMORIES ❤!!! Western Upstate NY Here The Boys Are So Freakin Cute!!! Just Love Them!!! Great Job You Guys 💙🩷🩵🩵✨!!!
The small town you passed is called Brawley and I live here! The Travel Inn you passed is where most of our field workers stay and sleep since they live in Mexico. Brawley is home ❤️
OMGosh watching you guys reminds so much of when my boys were baby's close in age too. I think the only way I survived that was I was still young enough to keep up with the energy my 2 boys had. sleep felt like a reward for being a good mom 😂
Greatful for Matt’s goofiness and authenticity. These type of influencers on the internet are a refreshing change from the inauthentic rush of consumerism and vainess
I've driven that part of the 8 a few times and it is a very pretty drive. We just got back from a 4-5 hour road trip with our 2.5 yo and 9 month old and we were NOT doing that during the day, lol. We started at bedtime so they would be asleep. The 2 year old would have been manageable but the 9 month old would have screamed the whole way otherwise.
You guys were at the Panera in Beaumont CA 😭. You guys did amazing on the road trips. My hubby and I are all over the place with our kiddos when we do road trips. 😆
I said this in a Snapchat post but wanted to say it here so maybe it would be seen. I saw Matt posted a video defending Abby because people kept saying “ give the kid to the mom” however I just wanted to kinda say a kind word and that is it doesn’t matter who takes care of the kids more regardless if Matt is making videos with the kids to make money or Abby taking care of the kid’s while Matt gets life done regardless yall are working together and it’s beautiful and it works for yall so no one else’s opinion matter it’s y’all’s beautiful perfectly imperfect life that yall are creating together and it’s working for yall. Keep doing what yall are doing so much love to yall and thank you for being so inspiring ❤️
This is such an accurate representation of a road trip with small children 🤣🙌🏼 Also Matt’s, “I literally think he’s choking every fine minutes and he’s literally just doing weird crap!” 🤣🤣🤣 yep!
This was your realest video I think! Matt you are not weird! seriously I at first thought you had something about you but now I actually really like you and like you more lol ! Your super funny and relatable! Not weird at all! It’s funny I would say the same thing or think that like “Oh why am I so weird on camera “ but your not but it’s just our Brains think that! You guys are awesome !! Love you and Abby so much and the little ones 💙💙
At the end of September, we drove from Tx to Cali (disneyland) with a 9yo,3yo & 6mon old. We drove straight to Az to stop at my dads house. Coming back from Cali we drove straight through.
Traveling with little ones is hard. My hubby wouldn't be stressed about leaving times but then realises when we finally get on the road that we have run back into the newborns next feed time.
Yup this is sooo accurate. I always add 4 hours to any long distance travel as 3 kids each stop is easily 40 minutes. 😂 And tablets in the car for win!!!
I had two under 3 but they are a little bit older now but when they are younger it is soo much longer to get things done. But In your defense the road closures probably added a lot of extra time
As somebody who recently had 2 under 2, I can’t tell you how hard I laughed when Matt truly believes that they could make it home by 5. I learned that lesson the hard way too 😂😂
@@Inthecoverofnightits because hes more recognizable now
@@Inthecoverofnight because their is creepy people who only watch videos just to watch the kids. That's the point.
@@Inthecoverofnightpeople can change their minds 🤷♀️ get over it
@@Inthecoverofnight there IS no hostility… Get over it 😂 señor sensitive lol
Wait what? that's why?? Ew@@Alejandra77775

You so sweet❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤I LOVE YOU❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
“I just..wasn’t panicked yet” made me laugh so hard 🤣🤣
Abby is the best! The fact that she doesn’t love blogging or vlogging, make the videos even better! Love her!
She’s my favorite
There is nothing wrong with how you act on camera Matt . It’s genuine goofy grateful and watching you learn different thing on camera authentic.
Griffin loves y’all so much
Griffin: *hugs table instead of dad*
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
The way I always instantly click on matt and abbys videos because they always are so amazing and fun to watch! ❤
@ellie.johnsonFr! 💗
😊 me to! I grew up in IL. I understand them... teehee 😊 love these guy's!
omg sameee sooo true
So true!! ❤
So truuuuuueee

I have two boys 13 months apart and watching you guys go through this time with your boys is bringing back all the feels! Doing great guys!
Matt is literally so sweet…even when it looks like it’s a lot to do, he still continues to be sweet ♥️God bless you guys
The complete chaos of this video captures traveling with multiple kids so well 🤣
I was thinking the same! Loll traveling with kids is not for the weak!
You guys are such great parents! I love the fact that your not only protecting your children but your also doing it while giving us amazing content and doing what you guys love!

If griffin hugging the table while his dad is asking for a hug isn’t the most toddler thing ever 😂
I've been watch for years & this is my favorite video so far!!!
Ya'll are such amazing parents!! 2 kids under 2 and somehow ya'll are still surviving on little to no sleep, literally amazing!! Griffin and Auggie are adorable :) I've been watching ya'll since before Griffin was even born and now ya'll have 2 kids! The freak..... I love ya'll so so much, keep on being amazing x!!
The more I watch you. The more I love y’all. Glad you have each other. Love how you interact in love. Best!🥰😍
Kudos to Abby for keeping real and not afraid to eat some food 😂
I love her ❤🥰
Why would she be afraid to eat food lol what a weird comment
I literally always click and watch all of your videos. I don’t even think about it anymore lol! Glad you guys made it home safe & LOL at Griffin hugging the bench and avoiding hugging dad twice. Such a toddler thing to do!
Can we all just recognize and admire everything Matt does as a Husband and Dad for his family? Holy crap man, what an example.
I know that route well. I-8 from San Diego, crossing into AZ via Yuma. Then on to the split where you choose either Tucson or Pheonix. Normally about 7 hrs from SD to Pheonix. Love that drive.
Matt’s idea to drive if the kids are good is what we always do, it’s hard but it gets us quicker to the destination and the baby nurses well too.
It is so nice how you’re keeping Auggies and Griffins identity safe you guys are such good parents 🐥🐥🐥🐥
I absolutely love how one second y’all are talking about wine and a bath and then literally Abby got what she wanted haha. Love it. Cute real life vlog!
I really appreciate the realness. When Abby tossed the diaper on the ground, I died laughing 😂😂😂
I usually just drive for the longest time I can and leave kids alone if they are sleeping and feed when they wake up and feed them as someone is driving! ❤ love y’all.
I like how they respect their kids privacies online. It's a good practice to have in the days of social media, where lots of things are easily accessible. They made the decision after their second child was born, and fully supportive of that 😃
I definitely agree! Their kids will also!
they made the decision before auggie was here, like while abby was pregnant
@@gabbydavis6349 yeah but they showed his face during his earlier months on the channel, so I was just saying they aren't now, but yeah.
I always love to drive through mountains when road trips there just so pretty
Matt you are so funny Griffin has your humor to such a wonderful family Abby your a great mom such a blessing how Matt helps so much you guys need a feed wks alone on a vacation just you two god bless

You two were so brave traveling so far with 2 babies under two 😘👏🏻 Hope that you have recovered by now 😊 Ute video - thanks for posting ❤

Yesss everything with kids takes double the time 😂😂😂We just had our first family trip.
“are you just saying that cuz you’re drinking wine?”
“………yeah it’s definitely the wine”
amazing 😆
You guys are such a cute family can’t wait for griffen and august to grow up together ❤
We just got home from a road trip back to STL from Colorado with our 5 month old so this video has me loling.
I love watching you guys so much ❤
Omg griffen hugging the table😂❤
This was hilarious, chaotic and realistic as it gets all in one I have 5 and have only went 1 state over in too scared to go any further 😂
you are such a good mum and dad and i have wocht your vidos for 5 yers
Enjoy each moment, don’t be in a such a rush, that only stresses both of you more. Your house will still be there whenever you get there.
Greatful for Matt’s goofiness and authenticity. These type of influencers on the internet are a refreshing change from the inauthentic rush of consumerism and vainess
You guys are amazing parents to you boys cause they can be crazy ❤I can’t wait to be a mom one day you are so great to watch to know what to do❤

Come stay with us in Albuquerque ❤
You are such amazing and happy little family.your babies are so adorable ❤❤
Matt, you are incredible ❤
I saw you walking on dec 2 looking at Christmas lights such a big fan
"Your protein pack smells like Buttcheeks" - i'm dying 😂
I just love your vlogs every time. You don't think that you're entertaining, but just tagging along with you is fun to watch.
I'm finding the best way to travel with kids is in the early morning or during naptime specifically. I regularly travel 6 hours with my littles
I cant believe they are making an effort and videos when she has just had a baby love you guys so so much
I giggled through this entire video 😂 absolute chaos
❤❤❤❤❤ you guys are so adorable!!!
This is my most favorite vlog so far 😂😂 wish could see Augi and Griffin's face 😅
Your road trips seem like organized chaos wrapped in love.😂❤

Abby makes fun of me for getting so paranoid about choking 🤣
Omg!! I know that hotel! My husband and I love staying there every time we do a Disneyland trip!
Road trips with kiddos are so hard and crazy long. You did great!
I was laughing this entire video. You guys are so unintintionally funny, the best kind of funny.
You guys were in California...always wanted to meet u guys, hopefully someday I can❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love the mountains I've driven that drive one of my fav ,❤ I'd never live out there but the view is gorgeous
Yay for the smiles on the thumb nail! It is a joyous time in your life and you will miss every second in a short amount of time from now
This was your realest video I think! Matt you are not weird! seriously I at first thought you had something about you but now I actually really like you and like you more lol ! Your super funny and relatable! Not weird at all! It’s funny I would say the same thing or think that like
“Oh why am I so weird on camera “ but your not but it’s just our Brains think that! You guys are awesome !! Love you and Abby so much and the little ones 💙💙
No ones going out of their way in Brawley to Hurt you Abbey. You guys stumbled into their Town. 😆 Grateful My Son Was Born In Brawley. 💙
Was that light not red at 6:17 and he drove right through it
Yellow light
The mountains are so gorgeous there
At the end of September, we drove from Tx to Cali (disneyland) with a 9yo,3yo & 6mon old. We drove straight to Az to stop at my dads house. Coming back from Cali we drove straight through.
Matt - Tries to give Abby a Happy Meal
Abby - Drops a diaper out of the car door
I’m dying 😂😂😂
May god bless you guys !❤
Haha that dude was like “hey Matt.”
Matt I think you and Abby are freaking hilarious don't worry about being weird just be you
“I just wasn’t panicked yet” 😂🤪
Hey you guys are awesome I love griffin and Aggie
You guys are the best parents ❤️ 💓 💗
Traveling with little ones is hard. My hubby wouldn't be stressed about leaving times but then realises when we finally get on the road that we have run back into the newborns next feed time.
You guys passed through Brawley! I could’ve met you aww!
Yup this is sooo accurate. I always add 4 hours to any long distance travel as 3 kids each stop is easily 40 minutes. 😂 And tablets in the car for win!!!
Matt you’re so adorable, love watching you guys ❤️
OMG there is no way you guys drove by Brawley😨 I live hereeee!!! I would of loved seen you guys😭😭 Love you guysss🫶🏼🥺
Did anyone notice when Matt and his brother were going in and out Matt called his brother Matt and his brother said hey brother or something
…
What?…
Matt you are not weird on camera! We love you and Abby! Please never stop being you we love your podcast and videos so much ❤
Love this video
I had two under 3 but they are a little bit older now but when they are younger it is soo much longer to get things done. But In your defense the road closures probably added a lot of extra time
Y'all are very good parents
Yeah “it’s def the wine” had me dyingggg
Love you guys favorite TH-camrs
