    But you don't have to do it on your own, it doesn't mean you failed. You've earned this. It will give you the opportunity to be more productive in business. Look at it that way.

    Kudos to both of you for realizing that you need help early on instead of waiting until things fall apart. Even as a married couple, it is ok to receive help because NO ONE can do it alone. Embrace the fact that having and raising a baby is a FULL TIME ministry of love. Enjoy it! (from a married mama if three).

    I swear… Another rough night, and your video grace is my feed! ✨👏👏✨Love it. And yes, it's definitely OK to get help. Me as a blind mother, I used to always feel like I have to prove myself 10 times as much as a person with vision, and I still do at times I'm not gonna lie, but I am now more open to asking/receiving help than I was before. It's really OK.

    I got my daughter’s ears pierced at about 3 months old by her pediatrician at the time. It was great and she barely cried. It was more of a surprise for her and then she chilled. In fact, I cried more than she did and her pediatrician had to tell me to get it together 😂

    I got my daughter a little 3foot pink Christmas tree for her room to match her walls for her December birthday. She was so happy and had fun decorating it. It was from Amazon and it came with ornaments, lights and a Star! I thought about Ocean and how a pink tree would look so cute in her room. Glad you are starting her ornament collection. 💜💜💜🎄🎄🎄🥰🥰🥰

    I got my baby’s ears pierced at 5 months. My husband cried harder than she did! My Mama didn’t get my ears pierced until I was 8 years old. It’s up to you as to when or if you want to get Ocean’s ears pierced. Take your time. Postpartum hair loss is something. But I kept taking my prenatal vitamins and the hair began to come back. Babies take everything out of you, in more ways than one. You’ll get it back in time🌻

    Ocean is voice is so soothing.. she’s a cutie. Great you got extra help when you need it most. As far as hair loss try putting a few drops of Rosemary essential oils into your oil mixture. If you got clove oil as well add a few drops. It will make your hair grow back. You guys look cute matching :). Brandon hopefully your team win next time. Thank you for sharing. God continues to bless you guys.

    I remember needing help with baby #5. That pregnancy was a c-section. That was a struggle. My husband at that time was working with CSX ( railroad) so he worked all day. I only took 2wks off of work. I don’t know if I could do it now, that was 13 yrs ago and I actually had 1 more baby. She 7 so not quite a baby. Bless your family❤

    I got my Daughters ears pierced at 3 months because I felt like at that young age she wouldn't remember or the pain may not last as long but she didn't cry at all. She knew something was different and at first kept trying to grab her ears but I made sure she was comforted so she was good. There is no right age though get Ocean's ears pierced whenever you get ready.

    Enjoying your vlogs! God bless you and your family 🤗 Just a thought…..I would wait to get baby’s ears pierced. Personally I got mine pierced as a baby and as I got older the placement is obviously lopsided 👎🏾. It’s especially apparent when I wear big studs because one will be dang near hanging off my ear SMH lol It sucks because that’s not something I can fix 😣 so I’m personally going to wait to pierce my future daughter’s ears. Besides there’s so many other noninvasive accessories you can play with. Like clip on earrings, cuffs, headbands, bows, necklace, bracelets, etc etc. I don’t understand why our society is in such a rush to pierce a baby’s ears when she’ll have it her entire life
