Something that will help immensely with the muddy prints, is if you train Chloe to wait at the door when she comes in, to get her paws wiped off. Treats everytime will greatly reinforce that behavior....lol. I know it will take some consistency from you guys, but she's a golden, and will catch on quickly....☺🐕☺
This!!! This is what we do for both of our goldendoodles. Put a rug by the door and train her to stay there until you can wipe off their feet. We do this when there is snow outside too.
@@tessalange248 I wonder if you have a place in your entry way where you can gate it off (swinging latch gate) and carpet on the floor to keep her until she is dried, or wiped off. We had a backdoor of the kitchen, and we gated an area for that purpose for our two dogs.
There’s anecdotal evidence that dogs can sense early pregnancy. I’ve seen many stories from people who’ve reported that their dogs knew they were pregnant before they did! That their dogs kept close to them, especially when in bed, and then a week or so later they find out they are pregnant. It’s a great sign! Chloe is such a sweet dog. I think there’s a reason you got Chloe when you did and your IVF cycle in January had to be postponed. Emily needed you and you didn’t even know that yet. Emily needed Chloe who wouldn’t leave her side as she would’ve sensed the cancer (dogs have been scientifically shown to be able to detect such things, they’re just incredible with their noses!) and I’m certain provided her with comfort as you all would have. I’m sure Emily was relieved that Chloe would be with you guys when she knew she couldn’t stay long and passed away knowing she’d been truly loved and that her family would be ok with Chloe. I’m sure she’s looking over you during this process. It wouldn’t have been good for you to have been so distressed in early pregnancy by her loss if you’d transferred in January as originally planned. You look so happy and you’re truly glowing Alex. You have a genetically normal embryo of reasonable grade (which doesn’t say as much as the genetics, except for the outer layer which was the highest grade) and developing well and you’re doing everything you can. You’re not going to shake it loose now or anything, especially after 24 hours of good bed rest. There’s really nothing you can do or not do to cause this embryo to implant or not. Take it easy of course but good blood flow is also important for early foetal health so it’s ok to move around some. I’m sure you’ve found a happy middle ground. I think it has worked but if not please don’t blame yourself Alex (though I know mom guilt it seriously tough). You’ve done everything you can. You all have.
My wonderful fur baby was husky and border collie. He told every one of our friends that they were pregnant before they even knew themselves most of the time. He just knew. He normally was my shadow that wouldn't let anyone else pet him, he wasn't aggressive he would just dodge the pets from other people. When someone would get pregnant he would forget about me and just be in love with whoever's tummy. Maybe Chloe just knows too.
*Laughing* Phil...thank you for that beginning part. I truely needed that, desperately. Alex....my fingers and toes are crossed for you. I will say a head of time...got positive thoughts and baby boy vibes. I love how care free, gentle, sweet and joyous you guys are with your Fur, feather and human babies. It is refreshing indeed.
BTW...just because not everything is just so, or not done, let it slide. It is not the end of the world. You are working on a very special project, that needs extra attention, and patience, my dear, is a virtue you need to have right now. Your love is trying to multiply 🥰🥰🥰
I just wanted to jump on and say, I am LOVING the regular vlogs. I jump on each day and get so excited when I see there is a new video 💕 I have a great feeling about this pregnancy, sending you positive vibes!
🐣 Alex & Phil; First of all I would like to say Thank you, to you guys, for bringing us along on your journey with IVF.. Alex, I like how Phil, give his input, and his opinion on IVF, also from the man point of view. THANK U! I love your channe, how honest and open you guys are. 🙏 I'm sending you and your family a lots of prayers your way.. U have a very sweet, kind, caring and loving husband. I think Phil, is doing a great job with keeping up with the chores. It's so very sweet seeing the girls helping Phil with chores. It is so precious to see the girls making a song up while they're helping doing the dish, and cleaning up. I'm sending you all the good vibes and prayers too. 🙃😇🙏🐣
You are just glowing! 🌞 I'm so excited for you guys! I'm pregnant with my rainbow baby right now. 🌈 Sending prayers to you for a successful pregnancy! 💗🙏
My parents sweet golden retriever totally knows I’m pregnant! She is only a year old but around me she is extra gentle, cuddly, and always puts her nose to my stomach 🥺❤️
You guys! I CANNOT with Cassidy!! She’s so cute! What’s the saying-god made dirt? You guys are tremendous people and even more incredible parents ❤️ You deserve this so much 🙏🏻 You guys give back every time you post-for me I need your positivity for all the health problems I’m dealing with. Thank you
Awe! First off... HI PAM! 👋 Lol I'm a sucker for the grandma's! They are both AMAZING 👏 😍 Believing your popo will turn into full on baby and we will be watching another round of your pregnancy month by month! Love u guys so very much! ❤ Sooo much love and prayers and light for all of you! Xoxox from Canada 🇨🇦 😍 ♥️
I love the eating of the cheerio off the ground! When I was pregnant and had an appointment with my allergist he said "let the baby get dirty, don't over sterilize. It really helps build immunity to allergies".
Alex you have had one successful pregnancy, your uterus has changed so perhaps this precious gift will implant as well. I have been watching your channel since you guys adopted the girls. I send my prayers and hope. Just remember no lifting you still need to be careful. No your aren't milking it. Don't feel guilty, you deserve this. You work so hard. Stay safe and be well. 👍 🙏👼👫👭
Your dog is such a love bug and she wants to take care of mama while you’re resting. All crossables crossed and I have Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, a connective tissue disorder, so I can cross a lot! SO much love!!
Your family helped me make the leap into raising chickens. We're putting in our garden(bigger and more variety) after taking last year off. And you have helped me stay positive during our TTC journey. Thank you for being a light.💙
Congratulations to all of you young ladies. This is so exciting seeing you ladies having babies close together. I'm a granny so this is always exciting news for me as I have an 8 year old grandson but my daughter hasn't been able to conceive in 7 years. It so hard to see the pain in her eyes but God willing she'll get there. 🙏 Good luck and God bless you all
We had a golden retriever called Jazz. He was 6 months old when we got him. He was huge and took up half of our double bed. We had him for 11 years and was a wonderful companion. Am loving watching Chloe merge into your family. It brings back so many memories.
Alex, I just have a feeling that everything is going to work out this time again. I’ve watched you go through every heartbreak & you did every single thing right & then some. It just seems like you got really relaxed when it was Cassidy & you’re in that super relaxed state again. I just have a feeling that it’s going to work! And hopefully Phil will have a little help on his side this time 😂❤️
Alex, it's been a while since I have watched one of your videos, the last video I watched was about Emily who passed away, your kiddos are absolutely beautiful, and I hope you and Phil are able to have another baby. A boy so Phil can have a son. Believe me having a boy around the house would be awesome considering you guys already have 3 girls. And do so much hard work taking care of the kids, animals, farm, and each other.
Oh you are a kick in the pants!! The kids in the snow is priceless 😁. And Phil gets a gold medal for being a great husband and nursemaid. 😉. Continued prayers for a sticky baby 🥰
I felt my little guy implanting. I remember feeling that "digging in" .... Hard to describe the feeling. Had I not done IVF and knew what was going on inside my body, I may have never known. All the blessings for a successful transfer! ❤💛💙
You are NOT milking it 😋...just giving that little egg/baby the very best chance to latch and grow. I love how well Chloe has bonded to the family. Dogs know when someone needs attention, so I am sure she has figured out how to help you, and get her lovin' too😊 I am feeling optimistic, and praying this will be a success. Take care, rest, and stay positive.
I love that, Phil, with Chloe bringing that love and good energy to the uterus while she lay with her head atop of Alex. Oh my gosh -- the kids are SO cute today! And Cassidy is advancing so quickly because of watching and emulating her older sisters!
I am very hopeful that you are pregnant again. Praying baby continues to grow. Earing off the floor builds immunity. There used to be no worries about this but now some people are very nervous about germs and bacteria but our body builds natural immunity by just experiencing the world. Love you guys and again prayers.
🙏🏼 something special for you and the family as a treat . Maybe you already know this …but freeze a few bananas (peeled and chucked) put in a blender with just little (maybe 1/4cup ) liquid . Makes great ice cream !!! we have used water , almond milk,dairy milk, creamer, etc.. then add your favorites strawberries, chocolate chips, cocoa powder, vanilla, LOTS of possibilities!! One tip try to make small amounts it’s not as good after you freeze for later .. much love and prayers
Alex, you have such a aura of excitement! It’s written all over 😊… you’ve got this and the good lord will see to it that your love will multiply… prayers on board! 🙏🏼
Praying for you! With my first IVF transfer I felt that definite strong cramp. With my second transfer I felt slight campiness all over instead. And both were successful and are here with me today :)
Exciting! I miss Grammie! Random: Have you practiced getting into the storm shelter with Chloe? That crossed my mind, out of the blue today. Holy Spirit? Laural
Alex, you're pregnant, you know why - Cassidy, you're precious baby girl has prepared you're body for another baby, you have all the hormones it needs to bring forth another child, BTW I'm an optimistic person, as also one who doesn't see negativity - .... so ( fingers crossed, and if possible - you're toes too ), I'm claiming it for you. 😊
My dog for sure knew when I was pregnant. It’s so crazy and fun how they sense that. Hoping your pupper senses a stick on top of giving you bed rest love❤️
I love that you called snow from my home state, CO, Fresh Beautiful Co snow. It’s so true and we got some this last week! And eastern CO where I’m from got a blizzard that shut down the interstate 70 from Denver to my hometown of Limon.
I had surgery 12 days ago. My pup stuck to my side on the bed for the first few days home. Now she checks on me constantly to ensure I’m ok when I get up and about, but now I’m having a rest and she is attached to me. Also. I abandoned white sheets and light coloured quilts not long after we got dogs. We have charcoal and black sheets and dark quilt options that coordinate.
🧐 I think this is footage from a week ago or so.... it's been warming up around here lately 😌 I hope to see some exciting testing soon! All the baby dust!!
@@paigesimpson9926 Alex is notorious for waiting a while to post updates like this. The picture is old. It hasn't snowed in their area since early March.
Chloe may be grieving, and knows that you in particular, Alex, are also grieving sweet Emily. It’s a bit different but after my Mom passed away in July I have been a mess. Our 15 year old Havanese has been very clingy to me, and cries if I leave the room without her. Sending prayers for another healthy little one. I have my fingers crossed you have another beautiful little girl.
Have throw rugs and a towel by each door. This will help to keep your floors and bed (hehe) clean. We love seeing how content Cloe is now. What a blessing for you all. When is the next golden joining your family?
Chloe's is so sweet ❤️. I've been watching you since your condo in California, when Callie was small. You're family is so wonderful. Just so uplifting. So happy for you and your continuing journey. Love and prayers. PUPO!!!!💕💕
Oh my GOSH... I am SO EXCITED & patiently waiting for a POSITIVE 😁❤️🤗 Watching daily for your updates & PRAYING with all my heart this happens in the first transfer... In JESUS PRECIOUS & HOLY NAME I PRAY... AMEN 🙏🙏🙏✝️ GBY ALL 🙏❤️💙💖💖💖🐕🤗✝️
Alex, you are so positive, I just love your outlook on life!!!! Im a very young 67 year old woman and I watch your channel as I love your family's messages AND you positive outlook on life is contagious and always lifts my mood/emotions
My black Labrador Harvey is seven now. He was a rescue but was only five months when we got him..Whenever I'm ill from my disease Rheumatoid Arthritis. I can go into flare just so quickly. Harvey always is by my side. They just seem to look after us and understand more than we realise. Lol my bed often had to be changed. The bottom sheet more so because of Harvey. I always have an old throw in top of our quilt cover now. So Harvey if a little mucky, it does not matter bless. I am praying for you both . I have a good feeling for you Alex. Your children are going to get a little brother or sister. I just love your home and land. It suits you both so much. I started watching you both when you had your two older beautiful girls and they were toddlers and you were working at the hospital. Phil was a pastor. My husband is on his last year of studying to be a pastor.. It's been a long four yrs . He is really enjoying his placements though . Only four months to go. I wonder would appreciate more so if possible. If Phil could give any advice for my husband . Love your family lots . God bless you all. 🙏😍😍
I think it's really cool that there was sledding during Cassidy's pregnancy, and now with this new one. It seems Heaven sent. You are NOT milking it. You are taking some aspects from your old physician's plan, and mixing with the new one. Phillip can handle 4 days of dishes and kids. He's a great Dad, but it's always a good reminder for the men to remember how hard the Mom's job truly is. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Alex you are glowing! Chloe knows you are pregnant! My dogs knew every time!! Alex, I love your “dog voice” for Chloe. It’s so cute! You can train Chloe to stand at the door when the weather is bad so you can dry her feet off. Keep a dry towel right by the door, a wet wash cloth, and a treat jar. Every time she comes in, have the girls wipe her paws with the wash cloth, dry them with the towel, and then give her a treat with praise. Do that for 5 days. Then drop the treat and just praise her for another 5 days. After that, when the weather is bad, tell Chloe to “sit” when she comes in and clean her as needed! It has worked with all our dogs. Getting a rug at the door will help clean her feet too.
I am super early in my second pregnancy (5 weeks) and I am symptom spotting everything! Even had a nurse tell me firmly to stop testing, and said "that a line is a line is a line." Made me feel better. Still waiting for the morning sickness to kick in. Another week or so, maybe. Best of luck to you! 💙
Praying for this new little life to find just the right cozy place for God to knit together! That golden bringing mud all over the furniture is going to be a constant pain. My friend had a golden and she did the same thing, only they had a pool and the dog loved to swim. That seemed to just add to the stink and hair was always everywhere even though they had a cleaning service. The dog loved me so whenever I went home I always had to use a tape roller on my clothes. Goldens are just that way with their personality, they love people and think they are lap dogs.
We have a golden doodle and she is so much more like a golden than a poodle. Our bed looks like this sometimes when one of us is sick and it's not great weather. This time of year there are a lot of baths and feet washes!! Chloe is such a sweet loyal girl xo 💕
I had two goldens, Dewey and Tazz. They are absolutely the best breed. They are so intuitive, and they are healers. Mine would not leave me alone for two weeks before I found out I was pregnant. ❤️❤️praying for you all.
My Yorkshire Terrier was very much the protector of the sick and injured. Whenever anyone in the family was in bed and "down for the count", she just had to be either on the bed with them or in the room literally keeping an eye on them.
I hope you get a positive test in the near future ❤️ when I was pregnant there was no home pregnancy tests 😔 and I was working in a bank and all the girls would push me to the clinic to get a test done and it was NEGATIVE so I waited another maybe 10 days and again negative this happened 3 times so I decided to make an appointment with my dr and I told him and he said okay let’s do it again and again NEGATIVE so he said let’s do a blood test and the next day he called me at work and it was POSITIVE ❤️🎉🎊 my dr said if I ever think I’m pregnant again no pee test only blood test ….
Prayers for guys. Hopefully that now your body has done it once, and although impossible to conceive naturally it will be oh this. I got this. And by Christmas you will have a beautiful bouncing baby xxx
Praying for you and your beautiful family♥️I can’t believe you guys surprised us with this! You are amazing parents and I love watching your family grow xo
My Mom said when I was potty training I would sit on my Donald Duck potty seat strapped in singing my thoughts and flapping my legs back and forth. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Stick little baby in Jesus Name.
Phil if those Cheerios had any hair or something else she would of sour it out. LOL If a child doesn't eat a pound of dirt a year thier sickly. That was my motto when my kids & grandkids were or are growing up. They grow up so fast enjoy every day of it. Don't close your eyes to long or you'll miss something. Keeping you all in my prayers. 🙏🙏❤
I am glad you are taking it easy. Follow what you feel you should do. You and Phil are so cute together. With my last few children who were conceived naturally I would feel right away that I was pregnant. This was like that night. Is this TMI? Lol.
We just got a Golden/Whippet mix puppy. Hes all black but looks just like his dad who’s a golden. He’s such a little sweet heart. I’ve never had a puppy and I’m so attached. 🖤
I really hope you see this comment! I live in Chicago I have a three-year-old Bernedoodle. The absolute best booties for dogs is called Walkee Paws you can get the jacket and the clip on leggings or you can just get the leggings themselves the leggings are perfect because they cannot and do not fall off if it’s put on correctly which is very easy. I use ours almost every day during the winter and spring and then we take them off it’s got rubber bottom you rinse it and everything is clean you’ll never end up with dirt in your home from your dog paws! I tried every other booty they would fall off!
When my younger child was in the nicu I made up the song " hush a bye don't u cry, go to sleepy little baby.when you wake, you will find, everything is gonna be all right.
Alex you know! Theres something about you🥰.. all us mamas have that 'feeling'.. but are afraid to go there until. Praying for u.. really hope this is it.. have a good feeling tho
Alex when you got pregnant I told you, you were going to have a precious baby girl to term but that I also seen you with a precious baby boy at Christmas time. So when you said the other day the baby would be due in December I was like awe they are going to have their dark hair little boy. I am all Smiles for your family.
Hey Alex I’m a long time viewer from the very beginning. I just love your family! Question: Do you guys get to visit birth mom’s still for both girls? I know you showed bits and pieces of their birth moms. Could you give an update on how things are going for them, etc. . . Thank you ❤️
I think once before they said they weren't going to share anymore about it because that is the girls story to share when they are older if they choose to
Guys, I think that your baby is successfully sticking! Dogs are SO incredibly intuitive and the behavior of Chloe shows that she is in protective mode! She knows perfectly what's going on! So trust The Lord and take a lot of care cause this little Congelliere is making it! 💖
Remember when you did Cassidy’s pregnancy test. In the RV. 😂👍💖 you literally couldn’t believe it. I pray that you get that same result this time. You and Phil make excellent parents ! 💖
I get weekly Methotrexate shots since the mid 80's i get huge bruises and always get sore spots on my hips they can't give my shots there I can't sleep on my side either side because of all the years I have gotten them it's just too painful and it never has gone away. I have rheumatoid arthritis I have been on steroids since the mid 70's I can't get off them everytime they try stopping it my joints flare then i can't move that joint for weeks. I also take a infusion every 3 months but due to lot's of surgeries they have stopped it for now. I have had so many reactions to meds they have tried but the only way they can see if it will work. I'm praying your family is having a healthy baby again. You are in my thoughts and prayers as always I pray for your family daily. May he continue to bless your family 🙏❤❤💯
I do my own weekly methotrexate shots and cimzia injections every fortnight. I have ulcerative colitis and psoriatic arthritis. I am only 47 been on disability since I was 34. Had UC since I was 23 with 2 kids, a single Mum through most of the sickest years with 2 young girls and no support, it’s been hard.
@@shaybatty3785 I'm soooooooo sorry you are going through this. I also raised my 3 daughter's as a single Mom. When my youngest daughter was one I divorced my husband. He was a alcoholic. I was 23 when I first was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. I tried using the pills but they made me so nauseated I couldn't do it had to start using the shots I had started getting them in my thighs and stomach for years then it started leaking out I wasn't getting enough the only place they could do it is my rear. I couldn't do it myself any longer so i went to my doctor's office until my youngest daughter moved closer to me she's a nurse she has been giving it to me the last couple years. It's been such a big help since Covid was so bad. I'm immunosuppressed so I can't get sick I had heart failure last year then found out have CHF and emphysema and COPD on top of my back and neck issues my chin sits on my chest now and my back is in the shape of the letter C now. I'm 64 will be 65 in April. You take care. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Way too young to be going through as many as you are. Especially with children. I know what that's like. Working 2 job's trying to make it through each day in so much pain. Not easy. You take care. Thanks for sharing your story with me. .
@@brendasnider7130 I am so sorry, I also left my husband due to alcoholism and dv when my youngest was 2 and oldest was 5. I also have kyphosis and scoliosis, cervical spondylolisthesis and lots of lower back and hip problems from a car accident. I have rotator cuff tears and bursitis in both my shoulders and need surgery after 5 cortisone injections in each one over the years. I also went through the mill with all the biologic infusion and injections and ended up with bronchiectasis, permanent lung disease from being immune compromised. I am basically bedbound. My youngest is about to have a baby and lives with me. She has had a high risk pregnancy after her water broke at 19 weeks. Are you in RA chicks on fb? I live in Australia.

Oh you are a kick in the pants!! The kids in the snow is priceless 😁. And Phil gets a gold medal for being a great husband and nursemaid. 😉. Continued prayers for a sticky baby 🥰
I felt my little guy implanting. I remember feeling that "digging in" .... Hard to describe the feeling. Had I not done IVF and knew what was going on inside my body, I may have never known. All the blessings for a successful transfer! ❤💛💙
You are NOT milking it 😋...just giving that little egg/baby the very best chance to latch and grow. I love how well Chloe has bonded to the family. Dogs know when someone needs attention, so I am sure she has figured out how to help you, and get her lovin' too😊 I am feeling optimistic, and praying this will be a success. Take care, rest, and stay positive.
I love that, Phil, with Chloe bringing that love and good energy to the uterus while she lay with her head atop of Alex. Oh my gosh -- the kids are SO cute today! And Cassidy is advancing so quickly because of watching and emulating her older sisters!
Wait a minute I'm in Tennessee we got snow 9 days ago! Is this video nine days old? You already know don't you!!
Obviously
Sending lots of baby dust to you guys!!!! Lots of love and blessings from El Paso Texas
Our 4 year old has been running around singing "Jingle Bells" for WEEKS. Y'all are in my prayers as you wait for good news. 🙏❤️
Just love you all! Such a ray of sunshine. All of you♥️
I am very hopeful that you are pregnant again. Praying baby continues to grow. Earing off the floor builds immunity. There used to be no worries about this but now some people are very nervous about germs and bacteria but our body builds natural immunity by just experiencing the world. Love you guys and again prayers.
Wow you’re on a roll! 4 videos in 5 days!
🙏🏼 something special for you and the family as a treat . Maybe you already know this …but freeze a few bananas (peeled and chucked) put in a blender with just little (maybe 1/4cup ) liquid . Makes great ice cream !!! we have used water , almond milk,dairy milk, creamer, etc.. then add your favorites strawberries, chocolate chips, cocoa powder, vanilla, LOTS of possibilities!! One tip try to make small amounts it’s not as good after you freeze for later .. much love and prayers
Alex, you have such a aura of excitement! It’s written all over 😊… you’ve got this and the good lord will see to it that your love will multiply… prayers on board! 🙏🏼
Praying for you! With my first IVF transfer I felt that definite strong cramp. With my second transfer I felt slight campiness all over instead. And both were successful and are here with me today :)
Phil you are doing an awesome job!
Hello👋 dear, how are you doing?
Exciting! I miss Grammie!
Random: Have you practiced getting into the storm shelter with Chloe? That crossed my mind, out of the blue today. Holy Spirit?
Laural
I love how much your girls love to help out. Cassidy is getting so big! Sending you heaps of positivity x
Chloe knows what’s going on, dogs are so amazing at sensing things like pregnancy & sickness & tons of other things.
Alex, you're pregnant, you know why - Cassidy, you're precious baby girl has prepared you're body for another baby, you have all the hormones it needs to bring forth another child, BTW I'm an optimistic person, as also one who doesn't see negativity - .... so ( fingers crossed, and if possible - you're toes too ), I'm claiming it for you. 😊
Yeah, i found out from her Instagram post 😭😔, I was really they were going to have another 😔.
He didn’t stick
My dog for sure knew when I was pregnant. It’s so crazy and fun how they sense that. Hoping your pupper senses a stick on top of giving you bed rest love❤️
I pray and hope that you will have a healthy pregnancy, can't wait to see what your test will show. Love your Family ❤️
Oooh UR FURBABY KNOWS!!!!! MY Daughter's pug dog stayed stuck to her when she was like 1 week pregnant.. she new before we did llol....
I love that you called snow from my home state, CO, Fresh Beautiful Co snow. It’s so true and we got some this last week! And eastern CO where I’m from got a blizzard that shut down the interstate 70 from Denver to my hometown of Limon.
My dog totally knew I was pregnant before I was able to take a test. He was all over me protecting me.
I had surgery 12 days ago. My pup stuck to my side on the bed for the first few days home. Now she checks on me constantly to ensure I’m ok when I get up and about, but now I’m having a rest and she is attached to me.
Also. I abandoned white sheets and light coloured quilts not long after we got dogs. We have charcoal and black sheets and dark quilt options that coordinate.
🧐 I think this is footage from a week ago or so.... it's been warming up around here lately 😌 I hope to see some exciting testing soon! All the baby dust!!
Their transfer was on Friday the 18th. She posted on insta.
@@paigesimpson9926 Alex is notorious for waiting a while to post updates like this. The picture is old. It hasn't snowed in their area since early March.
Check her Instagram, baby didn’t stick 😭
Chloe may be grieving, and knows that you in particular, Alex, are also grieving sweet Emily. It’s a bit different but after my Mom passed away in July I have been a mess. Our 15 year old Havanese has been very clingy to me, and cries if I leave the room without her. Sending prayers for another healthy little one. I have my fingers crossed you have another beautiful little girl.
Have throw rugs and a towel by each door. This will help to keep your floors and bed (hehe) clean. We love seeing how content Cloe is now. What a blessing for you all. When is the next golden joining your family?
Chloe's is so sweet ❤️. I've been watching you since your condo in California, when Callie was small. You're family is so wonderful. Just so uplifting. So happy for you and your continuing journey. Love and prayers. PUPO!!!!💕💕
Hello 👋dear, how are you doing?
Oh my GOSH... I am SO EXCITED & patiently waiting for a POSITIVE 😁❤️🤗
Watching daily for your updates & PRAYING with all my heart this happens in the first transfer...
In JESUS PRECIOUS & HOLY NAME I PRAY...
AMEN 🙏🙏🙏✝️
GBY ALL 🙏❤️💙💖💖💖🐕🤗✝️
Man, Cassidy is so stinking cute!! I can’t get over it!
Alex, you are so positive, I just love your outlook on life!!!! Im a very young 67 year old woman and I watch your channel as I love your family's messages AND you positive outlook on life is contagious and always lifts my mood/emotions
Same as me lol!!! 🙏🏻❤️💙
OMG I'm feeling your glow from here today!!
Thinking about you all!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍
My black Labrador Harvey is seven now. He was a rescue but was only five months when we got him..Whenever I'm ill from my disease Rheumatoid Arthritis. I can go into flare just so quickly. Harvey always is by my side. They just seem to look after us and understand more than we realise. Lol my bed often had to be changed. The bottom sheet more so because of Harvey. I always have an old throw in top of our quilt cover now. So Harvey if a little mucky, it does not matter bless. I am praying for you both . I have a good feeling for you Alex. Your children are going to get a little brother or sister. I just love your home and land. It suits you both so much. I started watching you both when you had your two older beautiful girls and they were toddlers and you were working at the hospital. Phil was a pastor. My husband is on his last year of studying to be a pastor.. It's been a long four yrs . He is really enjoying his placements though . Only four months to go. I wonder would appreciate more so if possible. If Phil could give any advice for my husband . Love your family lots . God bless you all. 🙏😍😍
So excited for you guys!!!☮️❤️🙏
Prayers continuing for you Alex and Phillip! Chloe loves her momma!
I think it's really cool that there was sledding during Cassidy's pregnancy, and now with this new one. It seems Heaven sent.
You are NOT milking it. You are taking some aspects from your old physician's plan, and mixing with the new one. Phillip can handle 4 days of dishes and kids. He's a great Dad, but it's always a good reminder for the men to remember how hard the Mom's job truly is.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Alex you are glowing! Chloe knows you are pregnant! My dogs knew every time!! Alex, I love your “dog voice” for Chloe. It’s so cute! You can train Chloe to stand at the door when the weather is bad so you can dry her feet off. Keep a dry towel right by the door, a wet wash cloth, and a treat jar. Every time she comes in, have the girls wipe her paws with the wash cloth, dry them with the towel, and then give her a treat with praise. Do that for 5 days. Then drop the treat and just praise her for another 5 days. After that, when the weather is bad, tell Chloe to “sit” when she comes in and clean her as needed! It has worked with all our dogs. Getting a rug at the door will help clean her feet too.
Always looking forward to your videos and seeing your sweet Family.
Keeping my fingers crossed for you , and I’m so excited for your all to see what happens ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I am super early in my second pregnancy (5 weeks) and I am symptom spotting everything! Even had a nurse tell me firmly to stop testing, and said "that a line is a line is a line." Made me feel better. Still waiting for the morning sickness to kick in. Another week or so, maybe. Best of luck to you! 💙
Praying for this new little life to find just the right cozy place for God to knit together! That golden bringing mud all over the furniture is going to be a constant pain. My friend had a golden and she did the same thing, only they had a pool and the dog loved to swim. That seemed to just add to the stink and hair was always everywhere even though they had a cleaning service. The dog loved me so whenever I went home I always had to use a tape roller on my clothes. Goldens are just that way with their personality, they love people and think they are lap dogs.
We have a golden doodle and she is so much more like a golden than a poodle. Our bed looks like this sometimes when one of us is sick and it's not great weather. This time of year there are a lot of baths and feet washes!! Chloe is such a sweet loyal girl xo 💕
I had two goldens, Dewey and Tazz. They are absolutely the best breed. They are so intuitive, and they are healers. Mine would not leave me alone for two weeks before I found out I was pregnant. ❤️❤️praying for you all.
Yes the sand sledding 😩😩 I was like nooooo!! Terrified me!
Prayers for a successful transfer 🙏🏼
"Sometimes well done can be tough, just like a steak." Loved that one!
My Yorkshire Terrier was very much the protector of the sick and injured. Whenever anyone in the family was in bed and "down for the count", she just had to be either on the bed with them or in the room literally keeping an eye on them.
I hope you get a positive test in the near future ❤️ when I was pregnant there was no home pregnancy tests 😔 and I was working in a bank and all the girls would push me to the clinic to get a test done and it was NEGATIVE so I waited another maybe 10 days and again negative this happened 3 times so I decided to make an appointment with my dr and I told him and he said okay let’s do it again and again NEGATIVE so he said let’s do a blood test and the next day he called me at work and it was POSITIVE ❤️🎉🎊 my dr said if I ever think I’m pregnant again no pee test only blood test ….
I am so very sad to hear your news guys! I'm praying for you all in your sorrow! God bless now and always 🙏🙏🙏 x
Lol. Cassidy was cute eating the cereal off the floor. I can’t believe how the girls have grown. Hugs
Chloe's such a good girl. She's taking good care of momma. Dogs and cats can sense things humans can't. She may know good news.
Prayers for guys. Hopefully that now your body has done it once, and although impossible to conceive naturally it will be oh this. I got this. And by Christmas you will have a beautiful bouncing baby xxx
Praying for you and your beautiful family♥️I can’t believe you guys surprised us with this! You are amazing parents and I love watching your family grow xo
My Mom said when I was potty training I would sit on my Donald Duck potty seat strapped in singing my thoughts and flapping my legs back and forth. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Stick little baby in Jesus Name.
Phil if those Cheerios had any hair or something else she would of sour it out. LOL
If a child doesn't eat a pound of dirt a year thier sickly. That was my motto when my kids & grandkids were or are growing up. They grow up so fast enjoy every day of it. Don't close your eyes to long or you'll miss something.
Keeping you all in my prayers.
🙏🙏❤
I am glad you are taking it easy. Follow what you feel you should do. You and Phil are so cute together. With my last few children who were conceived naturally I would feel right away that I was pregnant. This was like that night. Is this TMI? Lol.
We just got a Golden/Whippet mix puppy. Hes all black but looks just like his dad who’s a golden. He’s such a little sweet heart. I’ve never had a puppy and I’m so attached. 🖤
I really hope you see this comment! I live in Chicago I have a three-year-old Bernedoodle. The absolute best booties for dogs is called Walkee Paws you can get the jacket and the clip on leggings or you can just get the leggings themselves the leggings are perfect because they cannot and do not fall off if it’s put on correctly which is very easy.
I use ours almost every day during the winter and spring and then we take them off it’s got rubber bottom you rinse it and everything is clean you’ll never end up with dirt in your home from your dog paws!
I tried every other booty they would fall off!
Prayers for a successful transfer! I love your family! And I even love the muddy paws…. On YOUR bed, not mine! Haha. Use Biz Bleach. No worries!
When my younger child was in the nicu I made up the song " hush a bye don't u cry, go to sleepy little baby.when you wake, you will find, everything is gonna be all right.
Positive thoughts, vibes, and prayers!!!!!👶🍼👣🤰❤️🙏
Alex you know! Theres something about you🥰.. all us mamas have that 'feeling'.. but are afraid to go there until. Praying for u.. really hope this is it.. have a good feeling tho
Alex when you got pregnant I told you, you were going to have a precious baby girl to term but that I also seen you with a precious baby boy at Christmas time. So when you said the other day the baby would be due in December I was like awe they are going to have their dark hair little boy. I am all Smiles for your family.
It was due in November...and it didn't work unfortunately.
And it's saw*
I am so excited for you, praying all go's as it should
Being hopeful for your bundle of joy
Please rest! Milk it, mama!
I am trying to start my garden with seeds this year for the first time. My zucchini seeds are sprouting!
Hey Alex I’m a long time viewer from the very beginning. I just love your family! Question: Do you guys get to visit birth mom’s still for both girls? I know you showed bits and pieces of their birth moms. Could you give an update on how things are going for them, etc. . . Thank you ❤️
I think once before they said they weren't going to share anymore about it because that is the girls story to share when they are older if they choose to
You aren’t milking it. You are following your intuition which is good. You know your body the best.
I do the same thing make up my own songs and sing it to my daughter who is 13 years old and I have always done it lol
Bless Chloe❤she took over Amy,she will always be with you😍😘🤗
Alex SING SING SING while you get your shots! You sound like an angel!! 👼🏻😇
I just feel that this is your time :) you got this I'm so excited for u XX
Guys, I think that your baby is successfully sticking! Dogs are SO incredibly intuitive and the behavior of Chloe shows that she is in protective mode! She knows perfectly what's going on! So trust The Lord and take a lot of care cause this little Congelliere is making it! 💖
They say women 'glow' when they
are pregnant..........
Alex..........
👍🍼💞👏👶💖👶👏💞🍼👍
💐.....You are GLOWING!!!....💐
👍🍼💞👏👶💖👶👏💞🍼👍
Remember when you did Cassidy’s pregnancy test. In the RV. 😂👍💖 you literally couldn’t believe it. I pray that you get that same result this time. You and Phil make excellent parents ! 💖
Unfortunately they lost it 😭🙏🏼
@@reshna8228 o no ! That’s sad news. Thanks for letting us know ! 👍💖👍🇬🇧
@@reshna8228 Why are you on everyone's comments saying this over and over. Are you one of those weird people that love to spread bad news??
I wish you all the best and let love multiply!
I get weekly Methotrexate shots since the mid 80's i get huge bruises and always get sore spots on my hips they can't give my shots there I can't sleep on my side either side because of all the years I have gotten them it's just too painful and it never has gone away. I have rheumatoid arthritis I have been on steroids since the mid 70's I can't get off them everytime they try stopping it my joints flare then i can't move that joint for weeks. I also take a infusion every 3 months but due to lot's of surgeries they have stopped it for now. I have had so many reactions to meds they have tried but the only way they can see if it will work. I'm praying your family is having a healthy baby again. You are in my thoughts and prayers as always I pray for your family daily. May he continue to bless your family 🙏❤❤💯
I do my own weekly methotrexate shots and cimzia injections every fortnight. I have ulcerative colitis and psoriatic arthritis. I am only 47 been on disability since I was 34. Had UC since I was 23 with 2 kids, a single Mum through most of the sickest years with 2 young girls and no support, it’s been hard.
@@shaybatty3785 I'm soooooooo sorry you are going through this. I also raised my 3 daughter's as a single Mom. When my youngest daughter was one I divorced my husband. He was a alcoholic. I was 23 when I first was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. I tried using the pills but they made me so nauseated I couldn't do it had to start using the shots I had started getting them in my thighs and stomach for years then it started leaking out I wasn't getting enough the only place they could do it is my rear. I couldn't do it myself any longer so i went to my doctor's office until my youngest daughter moved closer to me she's a nurse she has been giving it to me the last couple years. It's been such a big help since Covid was so bad. I'm immunosuppressed so I can't get sick I had heart failure last year then found out have CHF and emphysema and COPD on top of my back and neck issues my chin sits on my chest now and my back is in the shape of the letter C now. I'm 64 will be 65 in April. You take care. You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Way too young to be going through as many as you are. Especially with children. I know what that's like. Working 2 job's trying to make it through each day in so much pain. Not easy. You take care. Thanks for sharing your story with me.

@@brendasnider7130 I am so sorry, I also left my husband due to alcoholism and dv when my youngest was 2 and oldest was 5. I also have kyphosis and scoliosis, cervical spondylolisthesis and lots of lower back and hip problems from a car accident. I have rotator cuff tears and bursitis in both my shoulders and need surgery after 5 cortisone injections in each one over the years. I also went through the mill with all the biologic infusion and injections and ended up with bronchiectasis, permanent lung disease from being immune compromised. I am basically bedbound. My youngest is about to have a baby and lives with me. She has had a high risk pregnancy after her water broke at 19 weeks. Are you in RA chicks on fb? I live in Australia.
