I still wear my sweater and think of you both every time that I do. My world has changed too Mari and Nick, the reason that I am late with my reply. I recently lost one of my sons. It has been a tough time. Right now I am at Lake Ruataniwha, previously at Aoraki Mt Cook, taking my time on a little break around about the lower, central Sth Island, in the Sprinter from visiting my youngest son and his family in Chch. He has some serious health issues and this makes life so much tougher for us all. So looking forward to seeing more videos from you, if and when time allows Mari. Take care there.🤱🤵 🤗🚐
You were amazing on the PCT. So positive and resilient. You’ll be great parents. Enjoy every minute. Don’t worry about posting. We’ll be here when you’re ready.
For some reason this morning I thought' what happened to Mari Johnson?' looked up your channel and saw this video that I must have missed. It makes me so happy to see the three of you! My small family has also grown in that interim period from 2+dog to 2+dog+baby. My partner was also in hospital for 10 days beforehand and I know the toll that can take, but hopefully your all recovered and enjoying the new experience of parenthood. Stay safe in these crazy times, and good luck with whatever you choose to do in the future.
Mari, can I ask you something which you don’t have to answer here. I’ve been watching a lot of TH-cam channels of women having kids during these last two years, and MOST had problems during their first month, where they almost lost them, and MOST had premi births. Have you guys been v axed before or early on?
Congratulations on your baby boy! I followed you on the PCT but somehow missed you finishing when you stopped releasing videos while you were hiking. I’ll go back and watch the rest of your hike. Enjoy your time with your biggest adventure ever! ❤️
Congratulations! I totally understand protecting his privacy. I do the same for the my now-adult children. I left it to them to decide their internet footprint. There are no take-backs once it out there. Enjoy! They grow so fast.
Congrats. No manual comes with little ones but they bring the most enjoyment. Enjoy the early years, before to long their asking for the keys to the car. 😂
What everyone else said…ditto. Thanks for letting us know about your world. California misses you,(speaking as a native Californian who lived abroad for many years) and can’t wait for you to come home.
Thank you for sharing this glimpse into the most wonderful time for you as a growing family 🥰 I was just thinking that everyone should do a overnight night (maybe not so far as the PCT 😂) before deciding to be parents. Wishing you all the best x
Congrats to you and your little boy! Enjoy the baby time, it passes so quickly ❤ Thanks for the PCT loggs 👍, I really did enjoy all of them (got scared of the sierras and rivercrossing though 😱). Best wishes!
I’m so happy to see you all are well! Congratulations! I don’t blame you a bit for keeping private. I hope you pop in now and again. Best of luck to you and Nick snd baby boy! ❤️👶👩🍼💙
Congratulations! I'm glad baby and mum are healthy after such an early birth. You could, of course continue on TH-cam/Instagram etc. Baby need not be shown too much either. 20 years ago, the UK was introduced to MacPac and their papoose (Vamoose now?), which is how we carried our babies on walks etc. There's plenty of information you could share on baby food, nutrition for baby/mums, hiking pushchairs etc etc. Just a few ideas, lease don't starve just because you've had a child. Good luck to you all!
Congratulations!! And with some of the things that came up, it so makes sense that updating YT wasn't a priority! ... Oh, and didn't the two of you appear in an Elina Osborne video?
Sweet, thanks for the update. Totally respect your choice to respect your son's privacy. Wishing you and your family lots of good health and happiness. Cheers!
Kia ora Mari and Nick. Congratulations on the new addition to your whānau. Not surprised to see you outside enjoying a walk. Wishing you well with lots of fun adventures and a bit more sleep.
Oh I missed this one! I was cleaning up my subscriptions so belated Congratulations and celebrations to you both and love and light to your new bub. Hope you are all healthy and looking after yourselves!
Congrats! Our second was nine weeks early so lots of time at the hospital and balancing it with time at home with our toddler. Enjoy your next adventure!!
Ooohhh wow!!!!! Congratulations guys!!!! Oh I remember the feeling!!! I'm so so happy for you guys!!! Well the adventure truly begins now!!! Can't wait for new content!
I am very late but Best wishes for your new lives as parents. I was checking what you were up to as I just moved to New York as it had been my dream for a long time. Enjoyyyy
Congrats again girl 💙 so happy to see you’re all doing well!!
Thanks mama! Hope you’re doing well settling into life with your little one! Sending good sleep vibes ❤️

Hang on is that Nick Price from Dunedin? I went to primary school with him and his brothers, then I bought his parents’ house!
Congratulations! Sorry you had such a scary time. Glad you have your sweet baby home now. 💝💝💝
Congrats. No manual comes with little ones but they bring the most enjoyment. Enjoy the early years, before to long their asking for the keys to the car. 😂
Congratulations 🎊
Wishing you all good health and happiness.
That’s great that you are letting your child decide if he wants to be on TH-cam. Such a smart and respectful decision.
What everyone else said…ditto. Thanks for letting us know about your world. California misses you,(speaking as a native Californian who lived abroad for many years) and can’t wait for you to come home.
