- We've quite literally waited a lifetime for this moment and it's been a long, hard road to get here! Start speaking a new language in 3 weeks with Babbel 🎉. Get up to 65% OFF your subscription ➡ Here: go.babbel.com/12m65-youtube-s... Granny Bobs is in the house!!! Let's show her the kind of fam we are and drop some love in the comments below to welcome her to the Beech house!
We've waited our son's entire life & most of our daughter's to welcome my mum-in-law into our new home! We moved our entire lives across the country, had my entire second pregnancy and became a family of four without my husband's mum there to see it or support us through it due to the pandemic. BUT the heartache is finally over and she is here to see our new home for the first time and help us with the kids so can finally get a bit of relief. To say this is nice is a wild understatement!!!

I’m one of seven. We had “nights up” where my parents would have one or two of us stay up a little later to watch a special show/movie and have a snack while all the others went to bed. I’m 40 years old and still remember these special nights. Maybe you can do something like that with Bowie .
Daily balance for me is realizing that some days I’m going to get a whole list of chores done, and other days I’m going to get none of it done! Both of those are perfectly acceptable and I shouldn’t feel bad about it!
Balance is accepting you can’t do it all equally at the same time, but that you can do it all equally over the average of a lifetime.
Y’all videos are the best part of my Sunday
Happy Sunday!!! So glad to be watching another weekly vlog!
Great job on the half marathon Josh, the point at the end was so cute ❤
I think the balance is giving yourself grace when you can’t get everything done in a day. We’re only human and doing the best we can and sometimes that means not everything gets done!
Can’t do it all equally! I think it’s just accepting and not being too hard on yourself cause that gives puts waaay extra weight on life :) you guys got this!! Happy thanksgiving! Love your chanel and podcast and instagram! xxx
Balance is knowing that each day you give 100%. If you’re having a down day and can only give 10%, you still gave 100% of that 10% that you had to give. That’s something I’ve really been lovingly telling myself instead of berating myself about how I didn’t complete everything on everyone’s lists.
Loving all the family time you've had recently, after so long apart!! And hoping the adventure can continue in England - how magical it'll be during the holidays. Definitely think that finding balance is accepting that every day is different and sometimes what we accomplish can be a lot of chores and boxes ticked and other times it can be getting everyone up and fed and kept alive! Many people mention grace and I think that's such an important word to remember, alongside flexibility.
This is so sweet! I love your relationship with your mother in law. This made me think of my grandpa as he came over the last Sunday and I had this weird feeling like I had to say goodbye and he had a stroke on Wednesday but he is completely fine. I love your videos also I definitely think balance isn’t a daily thing !xxx
Balance is definitely the latter. It’s ok, to not finish every single thing we wanted to do that day, if tomorrow we add it to the list and knock it out. Balance is being happy in every area of your life and those needs change every day. It isn’t easy but it can feel less difficult when we stop policing ourselves.
New mama here! Learning the “daily balance” as I go! I’ve learned so far that for me it’s being better than I was yesterday, shifting my thoughts from “normal/what it should be” and going with what the day and life brings! Watching you get up early and carve out time for yourself was super motivating for me! Love your sweet fam! 💕 congratulations Josh on the half! 🏃🏻
Love your videos. Always so inspirational and true.
Daily balance for me is something I’m still trying to figure out. Every day is just me doing my absolute best to make sure things get done but also making sure I’m giving the time and love to my family. I just keep on going hoping I’m doing it right ☺️
Family is the best!! Thank you for being so real! Daily balance is whatever you can figure out for that particular day! Looks like you all are doing a smashing job!!
I believe that daily balance is doing the best you can and giving yourself grace. There's only so much that you can do. Great video and hope you all had an amazing Thanksgiving
Ive been watching you guys FOREVER and have followed along with your journey. Both of you guys are so inspiring, and i literally will watch your youtube videos just randomly to cheer me up or give me some motivation! So thank you for continuing to create them- i know it must take a lot of work and i commend you!
As far as daily balance goes, i think that it has a lot to do with your mindset. Sometimes we are super hard on ourselves and set expectations that aren't realistic. I think that its not possible to have a "perfect" balance in your life and thats OKAY!!! Accept that, and be kind to yourself. Keep showing up, keep doing your best, and the rest will fall into place. Progress not perfection. :). Sending SO much love to you guys. I hope you had an amazing thanksgiving. SO happy that you get to have granny Bob there after spending so much time apart. And happy for you that you got to see your family in Toronto!
Keep being you!
Liz xoxo
You described balance perfectly! Each day brings on different tasks and priorities, and it is nearly impossible to have an equal balance each day. With it being the holidays, it is important to go into it with a bit of grace for yourself since this time is stressful! xo
Hey guys!!!
Balance… definitely easier some days more then others, but seriously when possible shutting off from the outside world for no more then an hour and truly just doing whatever/with whomever makes a enormous difference for the rest of the day/week.
Knowing everyday it won’t be possible, really savouring the hour when it does happen!!!
Absolutely loving these 30 minute vlogs! Your channel honestly just keeps getting better & better.
I think that balance is a bit of both. Mostly, I think it’s about accepting that you can’t do everything. I think no matter what, there is always going to be something you fall short on or feel guilty about. Especially in regards to making time for your kids. Ultimately, as long as everyone is happy & healthy, then you are getting that balance right. Maybe try leaving Kingsley with Josh & do things like the school run by yourself? Anything like that, where you can have even short windows of time where Bowie can feel she has you all to herself is good ❤️
Balance is never guaranteed I think you make your own balance ☺️ love seeing your vlogs and appreciate you taking us on your journey been a fan since Degrassi 😂 I’m an OG! Thank you Shenae and Josh and Bowie and Kings!
balance is just doing your best and knowing what to prioritize! you're doing great!!
100% agree with the other posts! Balance is always about shifting and adapting priorities 🥰
Honestly love your family and love these long videos they make me so happy. All the love from Toronto! God bless :)
I really think daily balance has to be re-defined each day! Some days the balance will look different then others and I think a lot of it has to do with accepting the fact that it all depends on how much you are able to give!!! ❤️ these videos! Thanks for always being so open.
I believe balance is prioritizing what your doing in the moment. Happy Sunday!
Daily balance is all about learning to balance your expectations I think. Somedays we are more accomplished than others. I think what helps is making sure you are tackling the MUST-DOs and chipping away at the WOULD BE NICEs. Lol. But to give yourself grace, hold yourself accountable, and make it into a game rather than pressure. Love your makeup and looks this whole vid ❤️
Hi from Toronto! I also have two children (a son that’s the same age as Bowie and a daughter that’s 2 months old). The transition from 1 to 2 kids can feel overwhelming. Your videos put a smile on my face and remind me to stay positive. I’ve accepted that balance isn’t always possible. Some days are better than others and we need to focus on the small wins (no matter how small).
I love your weekly content but I also love and enjoy the community of positive humans watching your channel .
Happy Sunday to you and your adorable and amazing family and hope you all had a great Thanksgiving ❤️ much love
Also welcome to the Beech House Granny Bobs
I feel that daily balance is about you, doing the best you can each day, but also remembering to take time out for yourself, because that is so important.
i also think the balance is really giving yourself more grace and knowing you can’t get all the things done all in one day. love your videos from🇨🇦
Daily balance is just accepting life for what it is…unpredictable. Some days are great and productive and others are a total disaster. I think to keep yourself sane it’s good to not put too much pressure on doing it all. As long as everyone is fed, clothed, bills are paid and there’s some joy in the mix, you’re winning💖
Well done josh!. What an achievement!
I believe balance is possible but maybe not daily. It's about looking at tasks/wants overall and working everyday to achieve them. Even if you are only making 5% progress each day or week you are further than you were before. If you can smile and laugh each day and go to bed knowing your enough and are important in the world you are balanced.
There is only so much you can do in a day. Balance it out the best you can. When your in the moment embrace it hold it cherish it. Just do your best we are only human. Love your videos and your precious family.
Balance looks different for everyone and each family. For us it is going with the flow while always ensuring our little guy has our full attention , love and care and giving him our very all while valuing one another and other aspects of our lives (in the best way we can even though it may be imperfect)
Daily balance !
I found with my oldest I cut nap times out which really helped with her night sleeping routine … and when the baby is napping you get a lot more one on one mummy daughter time! Your doing great keep up the good work and mum guilt is a thing your not alone ! Xxx
Balance is what you and your family make work. Quality time no matter what form is important!
I think it’s a mixture of both. Sometimes you have moments where you can balance everything, and others not so much. I also think it’s important not to beat yourself up about it when you feel like you’re not giving enough to one area, or the other.
Some days are easier than others. I find before bedtime with each of them if special and it’s just us. Also, taking them to their activities and we stop for a snack or treat just the two of us is just a little thing but goes a long way. With 3 kids it’s definitely a balancing act and not everyday is easy. ❤️ love you guys and this channel. Thanks for keeping it real
I feel balance is what you make it, in reality understanding that things throw you for a loop and it’s more of giving yourself credit for just the little things that get done. Day by day
Daily balance is definitely all about getting the stuff done that you can. We were not meant to run run run run. You need down time. You need rest. It’s all about the balance. Love your videos!!
Balance is a mixture of both. Meeting your daily goals/doing your daily responsibilities, but it’s also recognizing that we are not super humans and need a breather every so often.
Daily balance; you touched on the reality of what that is. It can be achieved if you accept
that you can’t do it all; but do consider what is most important to you in your vision of daily balance & do your best to achieve that 🙂
Balance for me is when I do get a lot of things done, be proud of myself but even I don’t get anything done and lay in bed all day, to also be proud of myself. Giving yourself grace is the best self care, in my opinion, but having that right balance I believe is almost unachievable because on all reality what is too much or too little. Great video, hope your thanksgiving was amazing!!
Daily balance is definitely celebrating when you can achieve your “goals” and accepting peacefully when you can’t. 🙂
amen!
Just over here striving for an overall equilibrium because trying for balance everyday is tough, and that's with only 1 buba💕 p.s love watching your family
Balance is making sure that your able to find peace, health and happiness in the chaos of the everyday!!
Daily balance isn't one size fits all. As long as me and my 3 Yr old Billy laugh that day that's all the balance needed! Wether thats me laughing with my friends while billy laughs with my sister or us laughing together. Some days it's harder than others but true balance is acceptance that things go well one day and not so well other days! Keep doing what you're doing as your kids look so happy! Xo
I think balance to me is reminding myself that I won’t be able to get it all done in a day. After I had my second little boy (4 months ago, also time does go to fast!) I bought a to do list book and I wrote 3-5 things down in it and try to get done at least 2 of those things. If I don’t get them all done I move it to the next day. Sometimes I get them all done and sometimes not a thing! It’s just learning to carve out moments for the to do’s and also time with your loved ones! Thanks for being so real!
Balance is doing what you love or what comes easy to you to the hilt, and what you struggle with, not stressing over, just doing best you can or trying again tomorrow.
I definitely struggle with balance but I feel like it’s really important to not put too much pressure on yourself and remind yourself that you can only do so much, enjoy your loved ones 💖
I believe daily balance is living with your heart in hand, acknowledging your emotional and mental state and doing everything in your power to breath through the hard parts of it. You are a powerhouse and everything will always fall into place.
To me, daily balance is more about making peace with what you cant cram into one day and celebrating the things you did get through. Making sure to give yourself some breathing room to falter, knowing that *the list* isn't ever supposed to be done, it just changes. And that *the list* keeps us moving forward. Cheers, from Ottawa, ON/King ON!
I think balance is knowing that you will never be perfect at everything all the time, and that you can only do your best. Ugh, I feel like my daughter misses me and I only have her! I feel so guilty about working and carving out me time with stuff like yoga and night classes but I just try to remember that taking care of myself sets a good example for her.
I would say balance is hard to come by it’s more forgiving yourself and allowing yourself to not be perfect and just be the best mom you be and in not quantity it’s the quality of time you spend with that adorable little kitten of yours
Daily balance to me is giving myself grace with checking off the chore list while meeting my work goals and checking in with my husband to make sure “we” are good so I can focus on “me” being good as well. ☺️
It's both! Some days we really can't do it all and we have to accept that. Some days we can give everyone a bit of what they need. It's also super important for our babies to see us trying our best and not always being what everyone needs. I've noticed since we had our third 6 weeks ago (😲) that my daughter is learning to be patient and give herself grace because she sees me doing it. She even tells me she's doing her best. They learn through watching us after all. 😊 You guys are doing great! It's wonderful that Bowie isn't jealous, this is a tough age for new siblings. ❤️ Also really nice to see you sharing your gratefulness for your family in a real way, you guys are obviously not fake and it's awesome!
Firstly, love watching your family SO much and my husband and I are starting our own family in March with our baby girl on the way 🥰 your videos always make me so excited to start a family - balance is difficult terrain, but I think it’s realising our mental and emotional health can teach us so much and should always be the priority. There are days where we nail everything and get so much done and be the best wife , best colleague etc etc and days when we lay in bed for a few hours having a good cry 😭 and I really feel we should hold space for the days it all feels too much , because life will always bring pressure - allowing ourselves to feel our emotions and validating them is so important and in itself brings balance 🥰 sending love and light 💡
Daily balance can be done. I have four kids and always tried to keep a routine when my kids were younger so it helped not only them but myself not feel overwhelmed. When I started to work I had to restructure how we did things and I always had my kids with me whenever we went anywhere and always treated them equally as possible.
Yay Sunday vlog time! And I think daily balance is achievable but not everyday. Certain days when their is extra time then definitely.
Balance is accepting we can't do it all every day, but to give yourself grace and realize every day will be different in terms of what you "need" to do and even what mood you'll be in!
I think having that daily balance is about acceptance that sometimes it might not all get done but knowing that doing your best in every area of your life is more than enough! 😊
Can I just first say your family would be so rad to be friends with you remind me of mine Absolute love for you guys. And Daily balance is a thing I try and do and its always a struggle everyday but at the end of the day we all feel loved, happy and grateful. As long as you try there is no wrong or right. Looking forward to next week and my Beech fam fix. Siate felici
I believe that making it a priority to have a work and life balance is so important. Having balance in our everyday lives helps strengthen time management skills. Making a to do list or setting goals for the week keeps me organized and reminds me I can’t do everything in one day!
It was beautiful to see you open up about your Grandmother. For today's question, I think balance is accepting that you can't do everything all at once. Taking each day at a time, is really helping me stay present. It's tough but I'm trying to allow myself to relax and enjoy the moments. ❤
My 2nd is about to be two next month. Honestly there's been days, weeks, months that I've felt like I was balancing everything the way I needed to but then something changed or happened and I was back to square one. I'm really starting to feel good about things though lately by realizing that I can't do it all. It sucks that it took so long but I'm glad I'm getting here. So balance is definitely the latter!
Daily balance is achieved by completing different goals throughout the day and making time for those ones that are special and important
I freaking love you guys!! I love going on mommy daughter dates 💜😁 definitely balance
You’re asking us advice for daily balance? You are my inspiration for daily balance! After I had my second I was filled with the mom guilt of not giving my oldest attention. I truly believe that’s what it is…just mom guilt. You are doing amazing and are giving both kiddos great quality time with you. It’s also a learning time for her as well. Learning how to share her time with you and she has been the best little big sister out there!!!
Daily balance for me is about setting goals but also giving yourself grace. Since "achieving" balance is almost impossible.
Daily balance is possible, but definitely can happen in different pockets of time throughout the day!! Just doing the best you can and knowing that that is ok! ❤️
I struggled with finding a daily balance only to completely breakdown because I felt like a total failure. I had to accept that a true daily balance means some days I’m killing it as a Mama of 2 kiddos and a wife, and then other days I’m in survival mode from morning til night. You have to give yourself grace. You and Josh are amazing parents, and at the end of the day, Bowie and Kingsley won’t remember if the dishes were clean. They will remember dressing up and having dance parties ♥️.
We’d love to treat ya to dinner on us! DM me on IG @shenaegrimesbeech to coordinate details! Xx
@@shenaegrimesbeech check your DM’s on instagram! 😘
I think it is accepting that we can’t do it all equally at the same time. It’s about knowing that it is ok not doing it all equally at the same too. Accepting that life is ours and we do our best and we should enjoy it as it comes. Do not get stressed over balance because every life and day has its own balance of different schedules and activities.
I feel balance is knowing you can’t do it all but celebrating the moments and days you can and each goal you can check off is a reason to celebrate! But don’t be hard on yourself on days you can’t after all you’re just human and life doesn’t come with a “how to” manual!
balance to me is figuring out what I can let go of that day and what I need to prioritize. But it is tough each and every day!
Daily Balance to me is balancing what needs to be done with my wants for the day. Wants are just as important when they mean setting aside quality time for children, partners, friends!
Daily balance is the process of prioritizing and enjoying our choices in what we are valuing right now. Accepting where we are right now helps to let go of a lot of angst around what we 'should be doing' according to the measuring sticks we were raised with. 😊🏵🏵🏵💖Lots of love and thank you.💋
I think balance is always a work in progress and is knowing that some days are going to go better than others.
Mum of one 4 year old here and i can never achieve a daily balance, some days i get closer than others, but unless i book time off work i just can't catch up with it all!! And time for me is always the lowest of the low on the priority order 🤦♀️ i do think it is starting to get easier the older my daughter gets though. Loving the videos as always, keep them coming! 💗 xx
With multiple young kiddos balance is definitely accepting you can’t get everything done but prioritizing what needs to be done first!
I think everyone has a different version of their own daily balance. You can’t compare yourself to others, do what you’re able to do and if help is offered to you, take it! My motto is one day at a time!
Fellow South Londoner 🙌🏻🏴
Daily balance exists to an extent, more of a routine and fitting in what you can and feel is most important that day!
I have a 2 year old little girl who loves watching Bowie! She screams Bowie whenever she comes on 🥺 I also have a 5 week old baby boy, as Josh says it’s going by SO FAST 😢
You guys are amazing to watch and take inspiration from, I love your little family ❤️
I’d say that balance is accepting that you can’t do everything equally all of the time 🥰 nobody’s perfect but if you’re doing things out of love than you’re definitely doing things right!! X
Daily balance is assuming you can’t do everything at the same time or control everything and still be okay knowing that you did everything you could. ✨
I think that each day's balance will be different. I think that if you try to put expectations in your head, when they don't get reached it seems like a failure. So taking it day by day and balancing the best you can is a win!
Good question. I’m not to sure but for daily balance is a lot different than it used to be. Taking time to rest because of being so sick, and detoxing and taking treatment. I’ve also had to except too.
Getting up for a few min to clean even if it takes an hour to unload the dishwasher. Things that used to seem like huge deals aren’t anymore, finding joy in the little things ❤️ thankful for the 30 min vlog!
Balance is just excepting that you can only do so much every day I think.
You are very lucky to get on so well with your Mother in law.
Balance is accepting that we can't do it all equally at the same time . We can always and only try to do our best and that's all that matters :)
Daily balance for me is doing a list of the things you want to do and dedicate that day. But, also accepting and being okay with the fact that you may or may not complete them all.
I believe daily balance is doing the best you can, and being gentle on your self when you have to make adjustments or push things over to the next day. I have to say that this is something easier said than done, and I am continually trying to tell myself these words on a daily basis. 🤗
I think daily balance is really going to be different everyday. Some days you’re going to be able to do all the things for all the people and other days your gonna fall short, and that’s completely fine! Just do your best! ❤️
Not mom and daughter time but my dad used to work really early every day when I was a kid and we would get up early and eat breakfast together just the two of us while he made his lunch and got ready for his long day of work. Really great memories with him and conversations. Then as a treat once a month we’d had daddy daughter dates of a movie and lunch or bowling or just going on hikes together
Balance is acceptance!
Daily Balance a state of mind where we feel fulfilled with how we have spent our day, whilst accepting that it's okay to not feel okay at times also 😊
I think balance is the art of prioritizing and delegating. You can’t do everything but you can put systems in place to free up time to do more.
First off, omg Kingsley is really staring to look like Bowie. Your family is adorable. As for finding balance, I remember reading a quote after I had my second baby that resonated with me. I don’t remember it exactly, but the gist of it is that as moms we are in a constant act of juggling. Some of the balls we juggle are plastic and some are glass. If we drop a plastic ball it bounces and no harm done, but if we drop a glass ball it shatters. Balance is just about finding what balls are what and making sure we protect the glass ones.
I think what you said about accepting the balance we naturally have is partially true but we do have to be mindful about our life and living with the intent we want to live by.
Daily balance is getting at least one task done from the list and being realistic in what can be done in 1 day. It is all about enjoying each day and trying not to stress about things outside of my control
I believe that daily balance means having time for yourself as well as your family. I stay at home with my kids and making sure I have time for me is just an important as time for them.
