I feel like the “ mundane “blogs are the most relatable! I think that’s where a lot of us mamas are at in our day to day. It’s refreshing to see that it’s okay to get some things done with the kids are awake. Also your singing voice is incredible ❤
I love your "boring" vlogs! The planned out ones are fun and great inspiration, but I feel like the the average days really balance things out. Those are more what my days look like, so it's encouraging to see other moms have similar days.
Every time Megan said it’s boring lol I was like noo I love this type of vlog. It just shows how normal life can truly be beautiful. When I watch Megan I’m very inspired to be kind and gentle to my kids. Because wow how kind and gentle isn’t she to her kids. You can tell she truly loves them. ❤
I love ALL of your vlogs! It doesn’t matter if you’re doing something or nothing. Keep on making content however you want and I’ll be here to follow you.
I think this shows a very authentic perspective in the DITL of a mum, thank you for sharing it x it's not always amazing, stimulating activities and that is OK. Sometimes we just make small things happen through the day and our kids just get to experience it x love this, thank you so much.
Found your birth vlogs a few months ago. Just delivered our 4th natural on March 4th. Thanks or the inspiration. Now staying for your content. Thanks for great videos 😊 Side note: our oldest will be 13 this year. Yes. Days can be long but time has FLOWN!! She’s a beautiful young lady that I want to be like when I grow up 😅 At one point our three oldest were 3 under 6, 2 in diapers, working from home, etc… it seems like a lifetime ago so getting to do it all over again and having a 4th is such a blessing. Hang in there friend. One day at a time. God Bless 😊
This vlog was honestly one of my favorites…. It made me almost tear up when Rowan was sad and asked for a hug and you just embraced him fully. You truly created such a safe place for him and I loved watching the authenticity. You are such a wonderful mama and I really enjoyed this “mundane” style. I will watch whatever content you put out but this one just felt very relatable and enjoyable to see I’m not alone🥰
I loved this so much. You’re such an inspiring mama: you’re so patient and kind. You are the true definition of what a mother should be in any lifetime.
28:50 YESSS to my 2.5 year old waking up from naps inconsolable, and sometimes mornings too. I just let her know that I’m there for her when she’s ready for a cuddle, and sometimes it’s like a switch just flicks for her and she’s suddenly ready for that cuddle, but it’s screaming and thrashing around until then. Tough but obviously just another phase!
I definitely have realised as ive gotten older and my kids are older that things go through life change constantly every few years. At the time it does feel like a never ending mundane cycle but each stage brings different things. All of a sudden u have kindy/school/teens and all the of the challenges and fun that come with those ages and u miss the younger years. This reminds me of what life was like when my kids were little❤ I love both raw and planned vlogs. My son used to wake up after naps exactly the same and it would last a hour or more and he would cry and cry. I tried so many different things, it lasted about a year about the same age. I put it down to being grumpy/groggy when waking. It was a really hard stage....but it too passed.
Ur a really good mom and ur great with balancing ur hobbies and keeping ur cup filled to make sure u show up for ur babies 😢 ur an inspiration and I strive to be like this with my babies
Personally, I especially love your “real” vlogs like this where you don’t have anything planned! I love your other content too, but something about this kind of vlog is so relaxing and comforting. ❤
My 2 year old often wakes up from napes very sad/upset/disoriented. What usually works for us is I take him out of bed and immediately sit on the floor with him and just give him big hugs. I tell him to squeeeeeze and he give me big hugs back. If that isn’t working I usually give him a bowl of whatever his favorite fruit is at the moment. I read somewhere that sometimes kids wake up like that because their blood sugar is low. So they just need a little pick me up. One of those two things usually helps snap him out of it but honestly sometimes like you said, we just have to ride it out for about 10 minutes.
In the struggle bus mentally today to. Being a stay at home mom can feel very repetitive and tedious at times. I have 10 month old Rowan and this has helped me today not feel so alone.
Not bored at all watching this, I love these kinds of vlogs!! Loved the part where Rowan cozied up to you outside with your jacket unzipped. So precious! Also, my son (21 months) does the same thing waking up crying and sad from naps!! Haven’t found out what causes it either, but we just ride the wave too.
I feel like day to day stuff is super relatable and fun. Like the clip of ya'll playing outside ☺️. It makes me look forward to when my son is a toddler 🥹
I love this vlog! Rowan is so hilariously chatty and I felt like watching you with him was if I could watch a movie of me talking to my 2.5yo all day long. This was so relatable and real!
Not boring at all!! Love these vlogs so much, you re-energize me to stay inspired doing the exact same thing you’re going day to day! So thank you for sharing!! My 2 year old son also wakes up crying most of the time from his naps, often he is completely inconsolable for a half hour even. We just have to ride it out too, so far haven’t found anything that helps. ❤
Our son for a while woke up super sad after his nap every day. We discovered that he just needed to continue waking up on his own. We honestly just had to ride it out. If he left his room super sad, then we would snuggle him on the couch until he is ready to be awake. He eventually grew out of it.
I love watching all of your vlogs, no matter what you have going on. You have a sweet family and your kiddos are precious! Sending love and hugs to you all.❤❤
I love all your videos nothing is boring.... I am actually wearing your cottage core mama shirt today haha ❤❤ my kiddo wakes up crying sometimes too... take like 5 to 10 min to calm him down
I love this style of vlog! Watching you and Rowan interact is just the sweetest thing 🥰 it’s like getting a little glimpse into my future with my baby boy 😭💕
I love watching you and you give me hope. I have had a bad few months I lost my dad in July he was my Bestfriend the #1 go to dad. You are amazing and I love your family and everyday stuff is good to see. Thank you for my smile today. 😘🤗💕
Love seeing the regular day in the life 😊 I've heard if they wake up cranky or sad from a nap it could be that their blood sugar is low so a snack should help. Maybe that's it?
Yep, my son is about 2 months younger than Rowan and I'd say at least once, sometimes twice a week he wakes up completely on the wrong side of the bed and it takes like 30 minutes to get him back on track again. Literally nothing will help during that time, even his most favorite activities or snacks, it's so weird.
I like a mix of both. I have a 29 month old and a 5 month old and I feel my life is also a mix of both. Some days we do multiple crafts, go outside, etc and some days all I do is laundry, clean and cook and be low key. I believe most moms are also in the same category. The mundane is real.
My 21-month-old was completely entranced with Rowan and Juniper. I enjoyed the chill vibe of this too. When kiddo wakes up from a nap inconsolable, it might be hunger?
My son is the same way and always has been with the really sad wake-up’s I keep thinking night mares as well but I haven’t found anything that works other than riding it out as well. It’s so sad when you can’t fix it 😢
I love the more unedited real life moments as a mom of a toddler I find it hard to watch a lot of moms on social media cause I find it so unrealistic and it makes me feel like a failure sometimes. I know that’s definitely my problem to compare.. it’s definitely a struggle since becoming a mama comparison is my biggest enemy in my life as of lately
Ya my 2 year old did this for a season and I would just hold and cuddle him for how ever long he needed then ask if he wanted a snack or water. Does he feel alone when he wakes up? Is he waking up in the same place he fell asleep? He may out grow it. If you don’t already you could always throw in another prayer before nap time 😊
Hey Megan from Australia! First of all I ADORE your videos! So relaxing and inspiring! I have a boy and girl just like you and wish I was as creative as you! My little girls first birthday is approaching and her name is Meadow, so we are doing a floral inspired theme, and I saw the table runner on your dining table and wondered if you purchased that or made it?! It would be perfect for where I’ll be putting the food if you can remember! Have a wonderful weekend ahead 💕
Maybe you mentioned it in a previous video, but last video you mentioned sleep training. Which method worked for you guys? And how old were your kids at the time? I have a 6 month old, and I am STRUGGLING with sleep 😩
@Megan Acuna just be careful hun it only takes one easy pull my daughter did it at young age and broke her leg and till this day she has leg pains like no tomorrow.
I prefer when there is more going on, like activity ideas and whatnot. I realize that’s not what every day really looks like for you but its nice to have something to aspire to and some ideas to use to entertain my kids!
I'm so jealous that you are able to do your makeup with minimal noise from your babies. Lol. That was almost an impossible feat for me at that age. My children are just not calm. I love them. Everything about them is fantastic; they smell wonderful. Lol. But they are not calm. I think it's a genetic thing because everywhere I go I see calmer babies and I don't get it. I mean, my kids are fed and clean and stimulated and not tired often and sooo much noise and activity is common. It's excessive and I don't know why. 🤷 I now have two toddler boys (3 years and 4 months & 21 months).
I feel like the “ mundane “blogs are the most relatable! I think that’s where a lot of us mamas are at in our day to day. It’s refreshing to see that it’s okay to get some things done with the kids are awake.
Also your singing voice is incredible ❤
Rowan saying “I need a hug” was so pure. Such a healthy handling of his sadness, to ask for help. I as an adult still work on that skill.
She's literally the only person I can watch over and over again without getting bored or tired 💖 you inspire me sm w my channel 💖🥰🍓♥️♥️🥰♥️💖🌟🥰
I love your "boring" vlogs! The planned out ones are fun and great inspiration, but I feel like the the average days really balance things out. Those are more what my days look like, so it's encouraging to see other moms have similar days.
Agree
Boring is beautiful ❤❤❤ i actually made a video on this topic ❤
Definitely not boring! The chill vibe is almost therapeutic to watch 😊
Every time Megan said it’s boring lol I was like noo I love this type of vlog. It just shows how normal life can truly be beautiful. When I watch Megan I’m very inspired to be kind and gentle to my kids. Because wow how kind and gentle isn’t she to her kids. You can tell she truly loves them. ❤

As an overstimulated mom I so appreciate your soft tone and calm down to earth videos
Agree❤❤❤❤sister
Totally prefer this vlog style!! Just real life momming. So helpful, encouraging, cathartic 🙌🏽
Your son is so precious! What a sweet boy who you can tell is well loved by his parents! Blessings to you all!

I love that you’re soo real !! Please keep posting real life ! Your authenticity is priceless ❤
You’re outfit looks so cute!!! Those pants look so good on you! The color and shape ❤
I definitely would like to see both! I love getting new ideas to do with my kiddo, but love the relatable content a ton.

I am a gramma and I love your vlogs! You are a beautiful mom!
Oh my word the strawberry family 🥹 and I cannot WAIT for my little boy to tell me he loves me! What a dream
I like both the mundane and more exciting & planned vlogs! It is so refreshing to see ‘real life’ content
I love these types of vlogs. It was not boring at all.

I like these type of vlogs best! So relatable. ❤
As a classical vocalist, your voice is very pretty ☺️ I have a one month old that I love to sing to 💜

Love all your vlogs ❤️ I also got a little teary eyed when Ro said he needed a hug 🥲
Love seeing the regular day in the life 😊 I've heard if they wake up cranky or sad from a nap it could be that their blood sugar is low so a snack should help. Maybe that's it?
Both types of vlog are beautiful and entertaining! Do what feels best for you! My 2 yo wakes up really sad like that too! We just ride it out 🤷
This vlog is soo beautiful ❤️🥹

Love seeing a vlog with u doing mom things cuz most of my days look like boring mom things and thisssss hitssss❤
Your outfit looks absolutely adorable! Love the pants! Be proud of your postpartum body ! You look great girl 🙌🏻
LMAOOOO i am laughing so hard at rowan just hitting the wall outside
My son also wakes up sad. Usually after his naps. Not sure what it is either, I just hug him until he's ok.
Wal mart has such nice clothes now they have stepped it up so much
My son is the same way and always has been with the really sad wake-up’s I keep thinking night mares as well but I haven’t found anything that works other than riding it out as well. It’s so sad when you can’t fix it 😢

Hey Alisha! Congratulations on your baby girls first birthday! Such an exciting milestone! The table runner is from a brand called Gathre 💛
@@MeganAcuna it sure is but comes waaay too quick!! 🥺 Thank you so much!
where was the strawberry shortcake shirt from?
Rocky wakes up like that often too and it’s the worst 😭 nothing helps and we have to ride it out too.
love the mix but if I HAD to choose, I`d choose the realness
What are your kiddos schedules? I have kids close to their age & am curious!
Hi Megan! Can you please tell me what pens you use for writing?
Maybe you mentioned it in a previous video, but last video you mentioned sleep training. Which method worked for you guys? And how old were your kids at the time? I have a 6 month old, and I am STRUGGLING with sleep 😩
You should drop that girl crib.... You have my stress level so high from that
She can’t crawl, pull herself up, or even get into a sitting position by herself yet
@Megan Acuna just be careful hun it only takes one easy pull my daughter did it at young age and broke her leg and till this day she has leg pains like no tomorrow.
My 16 month old wakes up from her nap very sad sometimes, the only thing that calms her is singing or reading books
Thats it, I’ve decided you should sing in every video.
I prefer when there is more going on, like activity ideas and whatnot. I realize that’s not what every day really looks like for you but its nice to have something to aspire to and some ideas to use to entertain my kids!
It’s amazing to me people can just put babies in cribs awake. My son has always fought sleep.
I'm so jealous that you are able to do your makeup with minimal noise from your babies. Lol. That was almost an impossible feat for me at that age. My children are just not calm. I love them.
