Does anyone else think it’s really nice how colleen used to say she felt mom guilt for being sad when she was pregnant with Flynn & how she didn’t want Flynn to ever think it was his fault…but now he gets to actually help her through this pregnancy and make her feel better?? It’s like a full circle moment that’s just super sweet❤️
I feel like Flynn has that energy that just brightens everyone's day. He is like if sunshine is a human being. His laughs and his little tangents make me smile and laugh too even when I'm having hard days. You have raised such an amazing little human being to have such a beautiful soul.
@@jesussavedme6260 thank you! I know you were just trying to be nice and spread positivity, but it is a bit rude to others who do not believe and worship the same religion as you. I know you probably aren't trying to force things upon others, but I'm just trying to make you aware that it sometimes comes across as rude to people when you say things like this. (Not saying it affects me because I believe in Jesus) but some people do not. Thank you!!💜💜
@@izzybaumgartner Whether you believe or not there's nothing "rude" about spreading the Lord's joy. You can simply scroll past it if it bothers you dear. Good day.
I was just telling my husband about his "pickle" box and I think it really helps for situations like that!! He knows he can only pick one and doesn't get bratty or selfish ❤️
@@RedRoseSeptember22 We will and so will the M.O.H. keep advising us to do so. Use all of your brain cells to its maximum potential, not just a single brain cell Karen
Who else thinks Colleen is absolutely glowing. She looks so gorgeous despite feeling so yucky. Thank you for continuing to vlog despite not feeling well. You are a rockstar.
@@emilybeuerlein6560 exactly what I am thinking. She looks ten times more beautiful when she is pregnant cause of all that perfect weight she is getting. She is glowing
People always say, “You are not your chronic illness,” but when it dictates every moment of my life, it sure feels like it! That’s what imagine you are going through when you talk about being a shell.
several things she has said this pregnancy i have resonated with because of my chronic illness. it’s hard to talk about anything other than not feeling good when it dictates your entire life ♥️
I literally burst out into tears when you said everything about being a shell of yourself.. that's all I've felt lately and to hear someone I love so much and look up to tell me it was going to be okay and that we're going to make it through it meant the world... Thank you for everything Colleen, you do more than you know and mean more than you think. You are so loved, please never forget that.❤️❤️❤️
Soup Dumplings are usually pork, and contain broth like those, but they are not meant to remind you of wonton soup. It’s a completely different item. I think people were freaking out because soup dumplings, AKA xiaolongbao are only in a few really authentic Chinese restaurants, and they have a specific taste that’s hard to achieve, and the fact that Trader Joe’s just has a frozen version is what’s so amazing.
Literally I’m so so proud of Colleen for fighting through her pregnancy crap to make Flynn feel happy and cared about. I know Flynn will remember how amazing, happy, and loving his mama is. Such a cute family!
I know being pregnant is hard and not fun for you, and it feels so much harder than the first time, but I'd love to comment that I love how you're more and more able to articulate in a nuanced and clear way the ways that you feel, and i think you should be proud of your growth, even if you're like, I still feel like poo and it's a lot harder than the last time.
I remember in the beginning of the vlogs where Colleen would tear up talking about how Flynn wouldn’t have a normal childhood and go to target and now this 😭😭 I love you
The pure happiness/innocence in Flynn is so beautiful to see.. You and Erik are doing such a great job raising this happy lil boy.. He is the sweetest.
This is the sweetest thing I've seen in awhile. I needed to see this innocent happiness and remember the good parts of the world. Thank you for sharing with us.
Please sing that song!!! Tears and laughter! Thank you for sharing so much of yourself. It's a blessing to watch, learn and grow with you and your wonderful family. All of them. Idk if I'll ever have kids but I've learned so much and opened my heart by watching you and Jessica. Truly a honor. You are such a strong, REAL to the core women. It's inspiring. Even more so when u share the ups and downs. Love you dearly. Feel you daily.
as someone who is vaccinated but also knows vaccinated people that still caught the delta variant (bc they were maskless) thank you for continuing to stay safe and talking about it to a large audience!! i appreciate it colleen
I feel like at this point, for human kindness, for people unable to take the vaccine, for little kids…idk, I’m wearing a mask again. Just in case it helps. Can’t hurt.
Being pregnant is hard. Carrying 1 baby is hard and you're carrying 2. Just think of it this way, every day you get through, you are one day closer to holding those beautiful babies and you are putting that one day behind you that you don't have to feel miserable or not yourself. This is all for the babies and you'll get yourself back when they are born and it will all be worth it. I know it is SOOO hard but hang tight Momma, you can do this ❤
Flynn is such a grateful little boy. You can just tell by the way he responds to what you two give him! You guys are doing such a great job raising this sweet boy! Him eating his ice cream was the sweetest
I've been watching your channel for almost 3 years now and although it's so strange to say because we're strangers, I care about you and your family so much. It makes me sad to hear when you're sad and I automatically try to think about how to make it better as if you're someone I know in person. And vice versa, when you're happy I'm just so excited for you. It is an honor that you share pieces of your life with us in these videos; thank you Colleen.
Thank you for being so open and honest. You're helping more than you know. Thank you also for sharing your beautiful life with Your beautiful growing family.
WELL DONE for wearing your mask!!! Alot of influencers dont take covid seriously, but it's good you are setting a good example for younger viewers and protecting your family❤❤❤
i’ve felt like a shell of a human, sort of detached for a few weeks - i’ve been taking it day by day and so can you! watching your wholesome, yet sometimes odd, funny, and loving content has been something i look forward to! thanks for helping the journey, girly 🥺
I think its so great that a couple of months ago colleen was crying about how flynn never got to walk through target and this weekend we witnessed it happen in real life
Me* thinking British* Colleen: *driving but hands not on wheel* Also me: how are you - ohhhh ye Americans drive on the other side I was so confused for a second
I literally rewound and watched the part where shes singing over and over where she starts to break crying and then busts into laughter because shes so pregnant she can't not cry. What a beautiful, adorable, funny, and human moment you shared with us. It made me smile over and over because being a human is such a beautiful and weird experience at time. I just love you so very much! You make my days so much better. I have been struggling really hard lately because my oldest son who is 17 has really been struggling with depression. You being so real about your struggles helps me remember that there will be good times and bad but we will make it through it
Flynns reactions in the store were so pure, so polite, so sweet. He is wondered about such "normal" things. I wish everyone could see the world the way he does. I'm sure it would be a much happier place.
with my niece we just put it in very simple terms like, you have to wear your mask over your mouth and nose or else youll get very very sick and won't be able to play outside with your friends anymore and we dont want that to happen
Definitely have felt like a shell of a person. When I've been very depressed, I've dissociated so bad. It felt like all the things that made me, me, were gone, and I was just a husk of what I once was. It makes sense, how easily that can happen with depression. We tend to associate who we are with the things we enjoy. What our favorite color is, favorite music, movie genre, activity, etc, etc. But when nothing gives you happiness, a huge chunk of your identity get taken away. What's helped me before is going out of my way to do the things I usually enjoy. Even if leaving the house or getting off the couch seems impossible, I get support from family and try and do the things I like to do, and try to focus on the fun parts. Or trying something new that I might enjoy or have always wanted to do. It is definitely not a cure-all but it's helped me. Also, just remembering that I am strong, and I am a survivor. Recognizing what you're going though is tough and validating the anguish and giving yourself a break when things don't go as you wanted. I have to sit myself down and tell myself that even if I am not coughing or sneezing I AM SICK, so I need to go easy, take care of myself, and lower my expectations and the pressure I put on myself. I don't know if this helps, but please remember you are beautiful, worth it, and loved. You are strong enough, and it is more than okay to ask for help whenever you need it. It is not a weakness to ask for help, it is a strength, because it can be hard to do. Love you dearly.
Hearing you sing "You Belong" gave me such chills. EVERYTIME I listen to that song I get chills and cry. Being a mother is something I cannot wait for. So that line "I don't know your face, but I know it will blow me away" gets me everytime. Also, I remember that song coming out when you were pregnant with Flynn and how much it effected you then. So beautiful to hear you sing it now with this pregnancy!
Literally watching colleen sing that song and watching her cry made me want to cry just of how wholesome sweet and kind she is still while in so much pain of having two babies grow inside her i love u colleen

Yas lmfao him running around giggling at Daisy chasing the string. Omg I cried from laughing so hard. XD
Ok
The way Eric’s voice changes when he talks to Flynn. So cuuute
Was just thinking that 🥰
he’s a good dad that’s why 🥰
Everyone who has been with Colleen throughout the entire quarantine knows how excited she was for Target!

😂🙌🏼
Colleen back at it again
YUP 😂
Hahaha 😂
😂😂😂😂🤣😂😂
PLEASE put more of Kory in the vlogs. He is so entertaining!
Hahahahhahahahaha
I‘m so impressed that Flynn doesn’t run through the toys section screaming like “I want that”. That’s so rare I feel, nowadays.
He's the sweetest boy! Of course, his parents are attending and paying attention to him, that helps, lol!
I was just telling my husband about his "pickle" box and I think it really helps for situations like that!! He knows he can only pick one and doesn't get bratty or selfish ❤️
Give it time my daughter never use too but then she started school.
It’s a good testament to his parents and how he was raised
I was comment something like this too! It is rare
“That’s like rotten watermelon 🤢”
Jump cuts to Colleen singing, “hello everybody we are in the car” 😂
Watermelon is 93% water, which would explain why the watermelon jerky was gross, cause it’s dehydrated watermelon, so it’s lost most of its essence
I love your pfp hahaha

Tacos....

Is is very clever lol. The ocean part at least
Don’t worry @be happy
I can't wait to see Flynn be a big brudder. He's gonna be so helpful and cute.
I had that same shell-of-a-human feeling when I was pregnant, too. It’s mentally and emotionally exhausting, even when you know it’s temporary.
Colleen: "We were in there for 30 minutes!"
Me: *spends at least 1 hour in target every time I go*

I am literally crying over how cute Flynn is in target… when did he get so big?
Flynn has grown so much I can’t wait for double the fun with the twins and more of an adventure with him!!🥺

hi Colleen, can we have a segment on a future vlog called "Flynn's Favs" where we can see what his fav trucks, foods, words, colors, etc. are?
colleen usually does an update about flynn every year or so talking about this favourite things and what he doest etc.
Not Colleen just casually mentioning she’s friends with RACHEL PLATTEN sometimes I think she forgets she’s famous 😂 we love you lol

It’s them eating Trader Joe’s dumplings while Mary Had A Little Lamb plays in the background that has me wheezing
Ladies and gents, she did it again!
“Tastes like rotten watermelon”
“Hello everybody, it’s an exciting day”
What part is that
“We we’re here for 30 minutes, he stayed in the toy aisle” I would be lucky if I got out of target and had only been in there for 30 minutes
Right? It always takes me and my husband at least an hour with shopping trips lol.
That's what I was thinking! Lol 😂
