When Austin was talking about living in the moment and trying to enjoy it and not worry so much about the numbers... i also get that way.. i recently started an art page and my initial thought was to get people to buy or to follow me, but i have to remind myself that this is only the beginning and that i should enjoy the progress of my skill more than my follower count because people are so unpredictable.
Love watching you bond with your boys, Austin. Almost cried with you and Kai in the sandbox, ‘best friends for life’! Keep this one to show Kai when he is older.
Kailand playing with Austin in the sandpit was so freaking cute I can't!!! I love his little sentences "daddy be a front loader. and I be a backhoe." I can't believe how big he is😍
I'm completely digging everything Austin said about being in the moment. In essence, what I got from it is it's good to stop acting or playing a role for the cameras and just try to be who you really are at all times. When the cameras are on, it's sharing. When they're off, it's private time. However,when the camera comes on it doesn't mean you have to perform or be politically strategic about everything you think, say, and do. Interestingly, Austin's energy is different in a positive way. For the first time in months he looks settled and more at peace. The love/hate thing he has had for youtube seems to finally be lifting. I think a lot of you tubers focus so much on the criticism that they get from a few and not enough on the tons of people who really enjoy the videos. This was one of the best videos thus far because not only are they both seemingly more relaxed and authentic, they actually allow the kids to just be kids. Dang...allowing Kailand to actually cry on camera is a huge positive step because normally you tubers only show their kids at their very best. It was cool to see Kai just be a normal kid and cool to see Austin just speak from his heart about the balance thing. I can imagine it's hard to find "work/life" balance when your work is actually making videos of your life. It's hard to find the line and even harder to help viewers understand that what they see is only a very tiny portion of their lives. In the same way viewers do a lot of other crap in a day and then sit down to watch a 15 minute video, the vloggers do a lot of other stuff as well. Anyway, I'm proud of Austin for doing the work to get centered and glad he's coming to the realization that the folks who are going to watch will watch and the ones who won't, will not. Stop worrying and start living. Put your faith in God and there's nothing else to worry about. Two thumbs up!
Quit overthinking things Austin. You guys are amazing. You are having real emotions and don't beat yourself up for past transgressions and just do your best to be, you, and, present. You aren't supposed to show strangers EVERYTHING you and Britt talk about. Being "human" involves not being perfect all the time. We just do the best we can in this world. You and Brittany are doing a great job and you both are SO TALENTED. In a relationship, you have to keep each other accountable and I believe that you are successful at doing that, because you're open to maintaining and improving when adversity comes your way. You make this social media thing look, easy, but, I know you put quite a bit of hard work and dedication to bringing videos to us. My family appreciates what you do.
I know this is random but Britt have you ever thought of trying sew ins or protective wigs for your hair. I was just imagining a cute maylasian curly hair on you girl, that would be so cute.
+Tiana Cosby OR (just putting it out there) she can KEEP her natural hair because that's what natural beauty looks like for Black women. She is not Malaysian, Brazilian, Indian, or any anything else but African American, so why would she look cute in someone else's hair?? BRIT YOU ARE FAR MORE BEAUTIFUL WITH YOUR NATURAL HAIR ..... BECAUSE ITS YOURS!!! Anybody can look good in a weave(for the most part) I'm sorry, but im 25 and I find it disappointing that we find other cultures more attractive than our own. I got on the bus yesterday and every single black girl/woman had on a weave!! How do we expect for people to accept our hair and our features when we don't..Brit please keep your natural hair, because it teaches little girls out there that they don't need another little girls hair from another race in her head to be beautiful
+LTs Diaries girl bye with that foolishness, weaves are a protective hair style to protect your natural hair, just like braids she has worn plenty of times.
I can't stand that excuse, you can protect your hair without somebody else's hair in your head. .. check out Whitney's channel naptural85 I belive... That's an excuse that is NOT valid
I understand what you are saying Austin. Sometimes I get caught up in things, but realize life is passing me by. I am a college student and I am always asked what will come next after I graduate. While that is an important question, I also want to focus on what is happening now. I have been working on making sure I am intentional with my friendships/family and spending time with God. Also, with social media being such a huge part of the world it is hard to press pause and enjoy life.
Same!! I am finally graduating with my bachelors in 8 days and I cannot wait to have more control over my time and truly enjoy moments without worrying about the next anxiety-inducing task that I have to achieve. Can't wait to spend more time getting to know myself and God!
Congrats!!!! I can't wait for graduation day, but I also don't want to wish away days. Totally understand you on the anxiety-inducing tasks. That has been one of my biggest obstacles.
Happy Mother's Day Brittany. :) You ARE a wonderful Mom. You both have three TOTALLY GORGEOUS children. They will have wonderful memories of home and growing up. They will go out into the world being happy humans. TRUE success is being a happy human. Continue to pour lots of love on the children. Teaching them right from wrong along the way. They will be balanced mentally. You both continue to love each other and support each other. Be thankful everyday for the joy you have in your home. DONT ever take it for granted.
Excellent point about being present in the moment. I am going to try that tonight with my husband. We are so used to being around each other that I feel like I don't really look him in the eye and listen. I'm just focused on the next thing we need to do. So I get what you were saying. He deserves my full attention so he knows how much I value him. 😁 Kailand is talking so good! He makes complete sentences now! So cute!
i feel im the same way. We get our 21 month old daughter to bed and turn on the video monitor and just do our own thing kinda. He works Wed to Sun 11 or 12 hour shifts so i see him around 10 pm at night. But when Ava is in bed i always try to just have me time like watch vlogs, go pee by myself lol. He watches tv and we chat but we never have the time together i always want...
Austin.......I feel you lol I have been kind of a vlogger addict for a good year now, & I noticed I get anxiety if I feel like I'm "behind" on daily videos. Like I have to watch that days video to feel "caught up". But I also feel this guilt with my kids and husband that I am so into this social media world. Not that you are not real, obviously, but that you are just a family on the internet that I love lol going to work on focusing more on being in the moment as you said :) thank you for the reminder!
Makes a ton of sense! Thanks for being so transparent! I don't think it's just a TH-cam thing. I think it's a "this day in age" thing. As you said social media is so addicting and time consuming sometimes you do have to just take a step back and enjoy the "simple" things in life! Awesome for you Austin! Also I just love you all! Thanks for sharing! Keep up the good work!
No, I get it, it totally makes sense. Social media connections are totally different than real life connections and though they can sometimes be just as rewarding, it's a lot less temporary than the reward of real life connection. Plus TH-cam is a different social media platform than, say, Facebook or Tumblr where you can personally get to know people more through chatting with them. With TH-cam we leave comments and you guys sometimes reply (which is super nice) but it's more like saying hi to a nice stranger in the elevator and having a nice chat with them before getting off on your floor and going on with your life. Weird analogies that I made, but I get what you meant :)
I only watch vlogs for entertainment. To break up the monotony... It's fun to take a quick peek at someone else's varied routines. I couldn't imagine watching for any other reason.
I cracked up😄 this whole vlog! Britt, talking about she doesn't know how vloggers vlog lol! Girl you've been vlogging for 6 years. Austin, you're always hilarious! Audri, being dramatic all the time is always funny! I can crack up at KaiKai, all day long. And the "Maddox, wants out of here" bit NEVER get old lol I be crying every time!😂😂 Austin, I totally got what you were talking about, with your one on one with us👍
Britt I respect you and I love you but ladies was anybody else falling in love with Austin during his Being Present monologue? Lol thanks for sharing tho Austin, you and your family are so blessed and highly favored. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I really liked today's video.....I watch way to much TH-cam but I don't have TV I do feel like I need to get off more and just talk to people and really communicate with people. social media is to much
Hey Austin, I prefer physical connection. I'm glad you're valuing the reality of the moment. That said, yt is is valuable for some of us. Right now I'm waiting to start a new treatment for an illness that affects my heart and physical ability. I'm home pretty much 24/7. I've been into yt more than ever since this happened because it's a form of connection until I'm on my feet again. Btw, I've been a subbie since Greyson was living with u guys in Cali
Baby looks just like a Null! He fits in so perfectly.
Seeing Maddox in the crib waking up omg gave me ALLL types of baby fever lol OMG.
ikr!! baby fever that I surely don't need lol
The Kailand cuteness in this vlog was almost too much- careful you're reaching dangerous levels of cuteness lol
Im so happy he is talking now.
Maddox is such a happy baby!
Kailand best friends 4 life with Dad! My heart melted. Your family I adorable.
kiland is just too adorable!😄
+BohoGirl45 Maddox looks more cute and chubby cheeks
+Literally Kyle it doesn't even matter at least she knows how to say his name
+Rhyana Duncsn Thank you.😊
+BohoGirl45 your welcome
+Literally Kyle is it really that serious? This is a family channel you need to take a seat sir.
When Austin was talking about living in the moment and trying to enjoy it and not worry so much about the numbers... i also get that way.. i recently started an art page and my initial thought was to get people to buy or to follow me, but i have to remind myself that this is only the beginning and that i should enjoy the progress of my skill more than my follower count because people are so unpredictable.
Omg I was wondering when Kailand wud start talking like Audrey. He's finally getting it so cute!
I love what you said about social media. It is super important to connect with people in person.
kai with that band aid was so cute omg
my favorite part. of the vlog was kailand and Austin guy moment tell me that I am not the only who was crying
Austin: Are you ready?
Kailand: Yea
*Austin opens bandaid
Kailand: No No No No
😂😂😂
Love watching you bond with your boys, Austin. Almost cried with you and Kai in the sandbox, ‘best friends for life’! Keep this one to show Kai when he is older.
Kailand playing with Austin in the sandpit was so freaking cute I can't!!! I love his little sentences "daddy be a front loader. and I be a backhoe." I can't believe how big he is😍
I really feel like Britt gets prettier every day!
Her skin is so clear!
Kailand is so sweet him and his dad are BFF!😄

Austin, I am smiling ear to ear. True authenticity is not for the faint of heart! I see you.
Audri telling Kialand it won't hurt was so cute!! That whole thing was cute!
Anytime I watch one of the Null's videos I start praying to have this. You're so blessed I hope everything in life goes well for you guys

Literally crying when Kailand said he wants to be your best friend 😭😭😭 he is so cute, and is speaking so well!
Maddox is so full of joy, it's refreshing to see.Kai ah..ah didn't sign a friendship contract with his dad but so sweet best friend.
Austin I give you the Best Daddy Award!! You are a amazing father. Britt you are such a blessed women.
she is!
At 2:03 kailands like ' I don't need sound effects, just give more dirt ol' 'man' 😂
+MsZeeDot I watched that like 5 times lol

I love how Maddox starts smiling as soon as he sees you. He's too cute!
