Evan was right on the rock paper scissors. Sorry, Carlin.😂You guys are great❤
😂
I've never heard what Carlin says
Evan is right, sorry Carlin 😉
Isn't the actual name of the game "Rock, Paper, Scissors" ?
Rock, paper, scissors lol
For the past 68 years of my life it's been ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS, SHOOT.....lol! I hope you are enjoying your weekend with your family. That is such a blessing. Don't ever take it for granted. Sending prayers, love, and gentle hugs from Donna in Florida.......
I am 80 yrs old from the midwest. It has always been ROCK....PAPER....SISSORS....and then you display your choice (no shoot.. no dynamite).
My son had this done at University of Iowa Hospital. It was 7 days for him and they slowly removed meds to bring on a seizure to catch it on the EEG and cameras. To localize where they are located in the brain. Prayers to you! 🙏🏻💗
Being a great grandmother I look back on photos and videos all the time. Keep on taking them. ❤
YES!!!! They absolutely CAN put her on a treadmill or exercise bike during the EEG admit!! And since it appears to me that she also struggles when she’s hot, I’d try to keep the room hotter too. You need them to be able to see what happens. Evan, please DO speak up. You’re Carlin’s advocate when she doesn’t feel like she can do it herself.
I’m a momma of a son who has intractable epilepsy despite still being on 5 seizure medications, each of which he takes 2-3 times a day. I have alarms set 5 separate times everyday for his medications. We’ve had numerous EEGs over the years unfortunately. I pray you are able to get some answers. I truly do.🙏🏻💜
Edited to add: it has appeared to me that standing for longer periods has stressed Carlin’s body as well. So rather than sitting on the bed, maybe she can try to do a lot of standing. It’s silly they confine your movement so much because that’s not real life at all. Sorry for commenting so long. I just know from experience how hard it is to get answers and not just with my 21 years experience with my son who has a rare disease. My daughter is 25 and also has numerous health issues. We’ve had more than our fair share of hospital stays, tests, and periods of no answers at all. I’ve learned a lot and still have a lot to learn navigating through all of it.
I feel for you. My son and daughter suffer with various health issues too and it's hard. My son is 29 and my daughter is 26, both live at home, both need daily support. Praying you feel God is close by 🙏 and that our children are delivered
@@bygrace24 Thank you for your kind words. Yes, it is definitely challenging and rewarding both. Mine will always live at home. I will always be parenting a 3-5 year old in understanding child. My son can’t do much of anything normal people can do. However, they are a blessing and I thank God for allowing me to be their momma and caregiver. I pray for you also. I understand the path you are on, the good and bad, the hills and deep valleys. I pray God blesses you and gives you the strength that only He can give. Hugs from one momma to another.🤗🙏🏻🩵
@@justjennifer8448 amen! 😊🙌
😊
Evan is definitely right. Rock, paper scissors
So I'm with Evan. Fall is hands down the best season. I love all the fall colors and decor. And it's Rock, Paper, Siccors ,Shoot. Layla gets more adorable every time I see her. ❤
The realest of real life right here! The kids being kids…and the squeals from Zade! We love it and ya’ll! ❤
I have had epilepsy for almost 30 years. I have had this test. It has been a long time since I had it. I was food deprived for 72 hrs and sleep deprived. It was excruciating. The glue they used to keep applying to keep the electrodes attached made my head itch so bad. I would say stay hydrated, sleep well prior to the testing. Take things with you to keep your mind going.
Praying for you all during this
Evan is right on rock, paper, scissors! I loved the vlog today!!❤😂
Carlin, I’m glad you finally have a date scheduled for your EEG and will be praying for you. The kids are just so adorable and Layla is so funny!! But Carlin, Evan is right about the rock, paper, scissors! 😊
Y’all are so sweet and fun to watch. It is rock, paper, scissors shoot. Praying for Carlins EEG and some answers. God Bless your sweet family.
You guys are so right! Pictures help preserve the moment for ever. You mentioned for you guys to remember, but gosh I wish I took more pictures for my kids sake. They are 16 and 13 now and I tell them about something fun we did and they have no memorie of it💔 it is so great for everyone to remember ❤❤❤❤❤
Carlin, Your new hairstyle is lovely and brings all the attention to your face as it should. It's beautiful. Prayers for your health. God bless.
I agree her hair is beautiful! ❤❤
Evan is right on rock paper scissors!
Praying for you Carlin! Thanks for answering the questions! Layla is so adorable and so is Zade! Love Y’all! Happy Labor Day! Love and Prayers Always
Your family is such a breath of fresh air. I've always enjoyed watching your family on Bringing Up Bates and the past several years have really enjoyed your TH-cam channel. I have been praying for your health struggles all along the way. In January I started having my own health issues that have greatly atered my life and my family's life. I have had countless tests and appointments and we still don't have a single answer. Watching you navigate this and stay so strong and positive has been a tremendous encouragement. I don't really like talking about my health issues, even to people that I know and love, because I don't have answers and it frustrates me. I completely understand you not wanting to share everything with everybody on the internet. However, please know that what you have shared has helped me A LOT, as I'm sure it has helped others. Thank you for allowing God to use this difficult part of your story to be an encouragement to so many people! I save your weekly video for a day that I'm struggling with my health and I need a pick me up or distraction. I'm praying that this hospital stay gives you answers, direction, peace, and hope.
Layla, realizing all that about the wedding ring! So cute!
The look Layla gave when you took the mic away!! Priceless!!
I hope you get answers from the EEG. My sister just had heir's done. They had her stop taken all her medication 48 hours before her EEG, She could not have any caffeine and she could only have more then 4 hours of sleep. They wanted her to be at her most vulnerable for her issues. You have been a great inspiration for her. Thank you so much.
So adorable she is the cutest. Such the sweet special child. You both have raised such a sweet loving child. Your little boy is as well but your little girl is truely special and unique. God bless you both and your whole family
Oh Evan, having the kids there during the Q and A was awesome! Their interruptions and screaming, etc. didn’t bother ME!! I loved it👍❤️. The plastic bag question🤔, it made me laugh, lol.
The bucket list videos would be fun. Glad y'all had a great time celebrating Evan's birthday. It was fun to learn some new facts about you all. Your kiddos are so cute. Glad you kept going, hearing your kids brought back some wonderful memories of my daughter when she was that age.
Glad you had a great time with your family. Adorable little ones, praying for your EEG gives you answers. Thank you for taking the time to sharing. 🤗
You guys are so fun to watch and listen too! Yes, please, on the bucket list Series.😃
Love you guys. Thanks for the heart warming smiles you bring!
Love how real, and normal, your videos are! You are an adorable family with the cutest kiddos! And Carlin your yodeling was awesome!!
Evan was right on rock,paper,scissors! Love to hear you yodel Carlin!!! Layla and Zade are getting so big!!! They are absolutely gorgeous!!!! Ready for next video!!!! Love and enjoy watching yalls videos so much!!!! Love you guys!!!🥰
Evan is right. “Rock, Paper, scissors..
Shoot” . Yes on the bucket list each month. I’d love to see you do some random acts of kindness things for strangers too
I most definitely want to see a bucket list series!!!
Yes to the bucket list series!!!
Oh my gosh she went from a diamond to a phone. Layla is too cute I can’t handle her cuteness !
Evan's way of rock paper scissors is what I grew up with in the 80s. The way Carlin does it I've only heard in the past 10 to 15 years. Hope that helps 😂😊 Love you guys! Very glad the EEG is scheduled!! We'll be in your neck of the woods tomorrow at the Bristol TN speedway for the races all day 😊 First time going, excited, going with my family plus 2 1st cousins of mine with their grandchildren, love family time together 😊❤❤❤
You guys are so real not fake it’s like we see what we get and I love that your so real . You guys are awesome. Rock paper scissor, I never heard of the ones you have said .
Y’all are so hilarious. The children are adorable love watching you guys. Have a blessed Saturday night.❤
YES YES YES on the bucket list series🥳🥳🥳
Never a dull moment for the Stewart family! You guys know how to enjoy life!
Holiday is a synonym for vacation. In British English people just say holiday instead of vacation, like we do in the US.
Glad your test is scheduled and so hope they catch something to get you closer to an answer.
Also; I’m totally w Evan - It’s ROCK paper Scissors and then throw your choice.
Rock Paper Scissors.
Totally Even.
Also, we all need you all to do the annual camping trip. It’s one of my favorite traditions of yours.
And rather than bucket lists - I prefer to just see your normal life stuff - you guys are amazing and I love to hear your thoughts about life and watch as you go about raising the kiddos.
Can definitely relate to feeling hope with each test that it's going to give you the answer and then you just get to a spot where you have to distance yourself from it and gave no expectations. Thinking of you through all this ❤
I have been in healthcare 40 years. Be your own healthcare advocate, tell them you want her to have the EEG done while on a treadmill. Explain to your healthcare providers that, that is when you have seen the symptoms most.
I had one done on a treadmill here in Australia.
Also she had cavities filled after Zade- the material from fillings also may be causing issues 🤷🏼♀️ I feel like epidural is more likely but no hurt in checking
And the clot shot doesn’t help
Carlin & Evan, didn't Carlin have meningitis after she had Layla. It can cause lasting effects on a person health. Please check into this. I had meningitis as a baby & I'm having health issues because of it.
Carlin, My daughter Sara was normal at birth. 6mths of age she got sick with Bacterial Meningitis. She had 2 strokes while in a 8 day coma. She was diagnosed with Epilepsy. She will be 38 in Oct. She has had numerous EEGs over the years her brain seizures daily. Most days I can physically see 2 to 3. Around her period she's got them really bad I usually see at least 18 a day. But only for 2 days amonth like this. She's on 4 meds daily. So what I'm trying to say is her EEGs usually are 72 hours. Laying in bed being monitored by cameras. Special lights like strobe lights that flicker on and off. Lots of EEGs showed no physical seizure. But her brain is seizures all the time daily. I've learned speak up at the hospital what u want and concerns. They're pretty good at listening . Ask questions. Praying the Lord will bring out your problems to the light and you will be able to learn what's causing your seizures. Just lean on God he will get u through this. God Bless You and your beautiful family ❤
I think the bucket list would be a lot of fun! I always enjoy your videos.
Your kids are too cute! Side note Carlin has a real talent for yodeling. ❤😊
Definitely do the bucket list series!! I'd watch that for sure!!❤❤
Yes do the bucket list series!!
Tip for camping, don't stress the little things. Your camping trip doesn't have to be perfect. And Christmas is my favorite holiday as well, and I also love fall
Rock, paper, scissors. Also the bucket list series would be awesome to watch.
We love watching y’all ❤it always brings joy to my day!!!! I love fall but Christmas is my all time favorite ❤️
Hey great camping hack for camp fires: stuff the cardboard egg cartons with dryer lint. You can cut the cartons into sections and burn them in sections or burn them whole.
Beautiful family 🤍☺️beautiful voices loved the little moments of you singing 🎶
Rock, paper, scissors. I love seeing you guys. The kids are adorable & that Layla's a hoot!
You guys have the sweetest family!
My son did an EGG a couple of weeks ago. They made him stay is a room that was plain/no color boring. He could go to the restroom, sit in one of the chairs or in the bed in the room. When you move, you have to take your wires with you. Make sure they wrap your hair after they put in the probes. The probes will probably itch, so wrappings your head helps. They keep you up all night trying to get you to have a seizure like it was 4pm to 4am at UAB. It was not good. They did find out that my son's seizures were focused not general. Make sure you wear button or zip up shirts, because you can not put anything over your head. Also it might take a couple of hair washes to get all the glue out of your hair after they take the probes out.
I have always done rock paper Scissors shoot. I love watching your family.❤ God bless you all.
I'm with Evan. My favorite season is fall. My favorite holiday is Christmas.
1. Love you guys!
2. Definitely do the bucket list series-SO FUN!!
3. It’s rock, paper, scissors, fire, shoot! But the order is for sure rock, paper, scissor!
4. My husband works in brain/spine surgery & used to do EEGs, so if you have any questions, I can try to get you answers! Best of luck!❤
I would love to see a bucket list series!!
Love you guys!😘 Glad you're finally getting your EEG! Layla needs a birthstone ring, maybe with hers and Evan's. Sorry Carlin, but it's rock, paper scissors. I would love to watch you tick off some items from your bucket list. Sounds like fun! How are Michaela and Brandon? I haven't seen or heard about them in so long, and I really miss them. I grew an affinity for Michaela, as she reminds me so much of myself. Please let them know that they are in my thoughts and prayers, as are your whole family. Have an amazing week!
Your videos are the highlight of my Saturdays ❤ Always have a good laugh!
I learned the rock paper scissors shoot version, but you guys could do both ways in alternate! I like the other way too!
Carlin you are absolutely stunning inside and out. I so enjoy watching you and Evan. He just make me laugh! Your kids are beautiful.
I really enjoy watching you and your family. Thanks for sharing with us!
Also make sure they have her hyperventilate and go with very little sleep. Not enough sleep is what caused my grandson to develop seizures when he was 2. He’s outgrown them now but it is was the no sleep combined with hyperventilating into a paper bag that sent him directly to the ER during his EEG
My experience with healthcare is you have to keep on people, poor communication is often part of the course. Don't feel bad for chasing people, it's sometimes the only way you get what you need, be your own advocate. Did you ever have a tilt test? Your birth video with Zade showed multiple episodes early on, I always think back to that time as a clue, similar to what you say about exertion/running. Don't hold back on informing people doing your EEG test your known triggers, repeat it however many times you feel you need to be heard or the right person know. Be extra assertive.
Rock, paper, scissors. Nothing more.
Love the idea of a bucket list where we get to choose.
Also, the drive thru thing where instead of ordering the same thing the person ahead of you gets; have the person taking your order choose their favorite things on the menu.
I was on instagram and your video of you and your daughter dancing popped up on my feed and it was adorable. My goal is to have a family channel like this one day when I’m married. So happy for y’all. Keep up the amazing work! Beautiful family!
Thanks for the update on Carlins health. I am always praying for you. Evan it is correct - its rock, paper scissor.
Can y’all make a Q&A but on TH-cam so we can give y’all questions?? Btw love y’all’s vids
Definitely do the bucket list series!!
I love the yodeling! Y’all are my favorite Vlog family ever! And Yes to the bucket list! 💜✌🏽
Until today, watching this video, I've only heard rock, paper scissors! Sorry Carlin..🤣. You guys are a hoot! That yodelling was fantastic!! Great job Carlin.. Praying for your upcoming test.. Blessings! ♥️♥️♥️
You got this, Carlin! You will come thru this! Don’t over think things. It’s in God’s hands and He’ll get you thru this. Love Layla and Zade! Too cute! 🥰👍💜
I love you guys and your Q&A’s. So much fun!
ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS!!! It’s always been called this
A bucket list series would be fun!
I would like to watch the bucket list series !
Yes, Evan get Layla a birthstone ring…Yes Layla def should be in dance classes, I see her loving it…Yes on the bucket list…Yes on Evan finishing the song…Zade is soooo adorable…Izzy is too… YES, praying Carlin finally gets answers during her 5 day EEG…Love y’all🤗❤️
Love sweet Layla’s conversations.
Yes, Evan is right on the Rock, Paper, Scissors Carlin! Love u 2 & ur family 🥰
My niece had seizures after having baby 2 , her neurologist thought it was related to her epidural. Idk but she hasn’t had any since. Carlin, you are in my prayer list.
I have said that all along that I believe it was related to the epidural, even a small pinhole from the epidural could have some effects
I was wonder too if it had anything to do with her epidural.
I think they started before the epidural, from her birth video it looked like it began once the intravenous drip was given 🤷♀️
I will keep praying for her.
@@bygrace24yes they did. She was passing out before the epidural even started!
Layla is so adorable❤❤
Fun vlog! Thanks for Q&A!!!
Praying it all works out with your hospital test and answers are given.
I’ll have to side with Evan on “rock. Paper Scissors shoot” -
You’re a sweet family!
Love the idea of a bucket list… and it’s Rock, paper, scissors, shoot! Sorry Carlin lol
My daughter is 42 and we have no videos of her, we will NEVER hear her little voice again,I would give just about anything to go back and hear her voice again! I’m so glad you make all these videos you will be so glad❤️😇👵
Your videos are so wonderful! I so enjoy them! Thank you!
Carlin, ❤ I pray they can figure out what is wrong and then have a game plan. You have been dealing with this for a very long time. As has Evan. You have been offering it up to Our Lord, and it is alright to have sad or frustrating days. Prayers and best wishes to you.
Bucket list series sounds cool!
And it’s rock, paper, scissors, shoot 😆
Layla is so smart love your kids.
Love your videos! Love the attitudes and faith you display! Sorry you guys have to deal with online bullies but I know it's a reality for everyone online. Thanks for continuing anyway!
We watch you all every single Saturday and look forward to it. Even my littles love seeing Layla and Zade.
Didn’t you all say you’d thought about Mayo? We live down in Jacksonville and hear such wonderful things. If you’re able I’d definitely try to get Carlin in there. I just pray y’all find answers soon.
Sounds like you’ve got an idea for Laylas Christmas. The ring was adorable. Bucket list would be fun. I’ve only ever played it as Rock, paper, scissors - sorry Carlin. Layla is doing great with school. Zade is cute. I wish I had your golden color skin. Hoping your appt in October goes well. Have a great Labor Day weekend.
I would love to see a camping trip with Josie!
Also rock paper scissors shoot 😊
Layla is so smart!! Love your whole family!! My daughter in law puts a tree up and decorates it for each season and holiday!!!
Hi Guys...I wanted to share my story, prayerfully it will encourage you...I have mentioned this before on your channel...I had my first seizure when I was in my 50s… When they took me by ambulance to the hospital, they did an MRI. Mine was a little bit easier to locate than yours. However, I ended up having to have a craniotomy for a cavernous malformation… Not only did they discover that I had one but I had four… That was in 2014 and in 2016 I had a stroke very mild…and in 2018 I had another one that one was way more serious. I spent three months in physical therapy seven days a week for three months… And I fully recovered with the exception of having a weakness on my right side… The other three malformations that I have in my brain the most serious one was in an area of my brain, where they could not do surgery… That one was the one that had bled in 2018, that caused my stroke… Then this year in February I had something very minor that cause weakness on my right side once again ...Then I started having some sort of spasm or something they're not really sure what it was… I also had an EEG for that which showed nothing ...But I'm still recovering from… But that cavernous malformation that caused all of this was
inoperable for where it was located in my brain… So I opted to have gamma knife… to stop the bleeds...I had eight days of radiation in 45 minutes… Where I used to have really bad headaches those have subsided… And my radiation oncologist told me that I wouldn't see any side effects until after two months… (my surgery was June 15 2023 Well praise God and I haven't really had any and I'm so incredibly thankful for that… I just want to encourage you guys to be advocates of your own healthcare, and to stand strong and be blunt and honest and show your frustration don't just leave it in the doctors hands SPEAK UP and tell them that you're tired of having all these test that you want an answer…Hope this encourages you....Don't be discouraged take your situation by the hornes and stand strong,tackle it and know that if you guys stay persistent you WILL find and answer!! Prayers for you guys!!
Always have Carlin in my prayers! Love listening to the kids during the Q&A. Maybe Evan can get Layla a birthstone ring for Christmas in a velvet box. You would need to take video of that! I can see her face just beaming. ❤
Keeping records in paper form is KEY from these types of things happening , when u can give date, time, name of person you spoke with copies of medical records insurance etc in PAPER form makes a HUGE difference..I know goin digital is much easier but I've been goin thru this for years and finally bc of the papers I've kept finally got my insurance to pay a 700,000 bill that they owed off..Yes the $$ is correct I am my OWN ADVOCATE!!..God bless
I'm know that goin the tech route is convenient but papers are undeniable!
I think any kind of record is good. Paper can get lost. If they put it on their device it’s in the cloud forever. I’m 50 and people their age don’t tend to do a lot of writing. I’m of the writing generation but I find myself screenshooting a lot of important things and making notes in my phone lately. That way it’s always with me.
@aj25055 yes ma'am I'm 54 so I totally understand!! That's why I suggested it
Love this week's video.
Evan is definitely right - its Rock - Paper - Scissors
You are the best and the chaos was wonderful🤗
Such a sweet video. I was taught Rock, paper, scissors.
I love the way Carlin pronounces the word "feeling". She says it more like "fillin". It's so adorable. 😍
Yes bucket list series!!
We definitely would like to see your bucket list series
Sorry Carlin, I’m with Evan, it’s “Rock, Paper, Scissors, Shoot!”
