We're using cloth nappies for our little island love! Did you know that a reusable nappy is used 240 times compared to a single-use disposable. Genuinely, I encourage you to make the change, even to part-time cloth nappy use! EcoNaps is a wonderful Australian brand we use and love.

Yes please to the house tour!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 so happy you guys are back with films!!!!!
Nice!!! I think a home tour is definitely in order :)
So happy to see you back! 🥰
😊 thank you
So glad to see you all back ! please film a home tour of your new house. love from Switzerland
Thank you! Will do… so glad to have you here 😊
I had a tour of your house when i came to visit August 2023 and it was incredible even before completion! Please post a house tour!
oh nice... yes a house tour is coming!!!
Beautiful and lovely family ❤❤
Thank you 😊
Yaye🎉🎉🎉 so good to see you all back on You Tube with new developments and new people...welcome back and it's amazing how much Arlo, Philly and Darwin have grown!
Thanks for being back here with us!!! Yes the kids are growing up so fast... I want to stop the clock! With more help and new goals for the year I hope we can share some great videos :)
So good to see you back. Glad that all is well. Yes, a video on the new house please, including any remaining footage of the build. Those banner fish were pretty cool! You must be one of those fish whisperers. See you guys in about 3 weeks! 😊
Phenomenal! So great that you're back - that you're ALL back! Wow - what a rollercoaster of emotions you've had over the last year.
I do hope you'll be able to continue VLOGs fairly regularly. Just think how great it'll be for your kids to watch this all back when they're your ages - and show their kids!
Just out of interest...any particular reason he's called Darwin (as in the State capital)? Any particular connection with your histories, families or whatever?
Also it'd be interesting to see and hear how Molly acclimatises to Uepi Life over the weeks/months ahead. (Maybe she could have a '5-minute from Molly' time-slot about that, every now and then?) What a great job to have - on an island 'paradise!'
Keep on rolling!
(Oh - and Yes please re the House Tour!)
Honestly a huge reason we are back is because we have missed making movies of our family. Living this incredible life and saving memories in these videos is everything to me! I love it. Our inspiration for the name Darwin is from the great Charles Darwin. We felt Charles was not the right fit but we love the name Darwin and being who we are, we are both so inspired by the works of Darwin as a naturalist and theory of evolution 🦈🏝️🪸🐠
I’m sure mollie will appear in most videos and I’d love to give more insight into her experience and the kids education. We are loving having her here so far!! House tour - I think it’s a must based on the comments 😃
Thanks so much for being here 😎☀️🪸👋🏼
Thank you for promoting Solomon Islands on youtube
It’s a very special place to us!!! Tropical paradise 🌴☀️🦎
I’m so glad to see you back! You all never fail to give me joy. I loved seeing you play with the fish. Seeing your adventures gets me excited about my own.
Thanks so much 😊 we feel good about being back and finding our groove on TH-cam again. It’s also so nice to push us back underwater more rather than being too caught up in everything else we have going on!!! Thanks for coming back you’re our OG family 🌴☀️😊
Minado leana! I'm looking forward to more content from our lovely Marovo Lagoon.
Leana via!
So happy to see you back! You've been missed! A house tour would be wonderful!
You have a beautiful family. We enjoy watching your every day life and all your adventures!
oh lovely for you to leave a comment!! Thank you :) I think a home tour is in order!!
Thanks both for this amazing video and put us Islander on a spot to the world. TH-cam should have monetized youtubers in Solomon Island 🇸🇧 like the rest of the 🌎 world.
Glad you enjoyed it! All about sharing it to be honest! Thanks for watching :)
That was a fabulous, very real catch up. What a year! Lovely to hear that all of you are finding your island rhythm again. Loved the dive shots and seeing your kids thriving. See you in three months.
We are so happy you are headed back and we will be here! It has taken some time to really settle in and even though there is still an endless jobs list... this is life now and we are loving it!
Ahhhh i loved this!!! Effortlessly cool with the scuba Katie 😂 I forgot how much I love and missed your underwater sequences!! The sprogs and I loved catching back up while inhaling lunch before we hit the trails! Excited for the next one!! And welcome Molly!!! 😊
oohhh I am so happy to be back at it at the same time you are kicking off!!!
How wonderful to see you all again! We would love to see the tour of your beautiful home. So glad you are all feeling better. You have three beautiful children and what a unique and wonderful life you are giving them. We are just wondering if you are open for visitors at this time. Please send our very best to Grant and Jill, Mark and Nikki Patton
Oh wonderful... I think many people are keen for a home tour!! We are certainly open and taking guests... I will pass on your regards to Jill and Grant :)
Great to see you guys back and all healthy, can’t wait to bring my family in November, having troubles with Solomon Airlines, they keep changing our flight times and now dates 😡
So good to be back sharing the island life again!!! Oh no I am so sorry to hear Sol Air is stuffing you around.. hope they get it sorted for you soon :)
Great to see you all, glad everyone is WELL. Kids have grown- saw them briefly in Honiara, Darwin super cute, congratulations. ❤️
Yes I actually found myself looking back on our last videos (over a year ago we filmed them) and noticed how much the kids have grown and changed! It was a motivating factor for me to get back to vlogging as I dearly love preserving these memories of the children! Darwin is such a gorgeous addition isn't he!
Welcome back so great to see you guys and your beautiful family. Can’t wait to see what this year holds for you all. ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much Vanesa!! I'm sure there will be plenty of madness to share ha ha thanks for being here :)
Happy family ever...

Yes, house and island tour! We love you guys!
Nice!!! 👍🏼 we’re so keen to share a full house tour 😊🌴🦎
Looking forward to more underwater videos
Yes 🙌🏼 and we are looking forward to making them for you 😉
Great to see you back guys. It has been a while since I have found something that really resonates at a deeper level with me. Living in Dubai for the past 10 years has culminated in a part of me lost. Natural, family life, overcoming the challenges of life together. Working together as a unit. Your channel has helped with the activation energy needed to look to the future and start a new back in a natural setting. Keep sharing guys. It’s much appreciated and sparks joy to watch.
Wow thank you so much for sharing this message. It means a lot to us that we can have this positive impact from our little island home to yours. It’s life and life can be wonderful 😎☀️ hope you enjoy the vids we have coming up 🙌🏼
Good and simple family
Thanks 😊
👏👏👏👏 welcome back ❤. Yep you do make verrrrrry cute kids. We have been at Uepi the 3 times you have been in Oz to give birth! Beware if history repeats and we book a while in advance, could be a fam of 6 😅. Looking forward to the next vlog. Katie the fish 🐠 whisperer. xx
ha ha ha ha I won't tell Jase this theory!!! Darwin is the perfect little dude to complete our family I think!! Those fish were hilarious ha ha and I feel like they are always there ready for a chat!
Welcome back!! Yes, house tour please 😊 Leana
Done ✅ thanks for being here!! Leana 👋🏼
So proud of you all 👍
thanks :)
House tour please and the house plan too 😂
I think it’s in order 🙌🏼☀️🌴
BEAUTIFUL PLACE AND BEAUTIFUL FAMILY ❤❤
You are so kind thank you 😊
Good tumas. So happy that the vlogs are back! House tour please!
Yes!!! It's so good to be back! I have missed it :)
Definitely keen for a house tour
Yes I think it’s in order 🙌🏼
hey, sorry we missed you Katie, but we did get to meet Mollie which was great
I know I am so sorry... I flew out a few days into your trip and it was all a bit hectic - mum life these days has been busy up at the house!
Catch you next time I hope - and not just on facetime ha ha
House tour please. ❤
I think it's needed!!
Would love to see a house tour.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I think it’ll be fun to document the finished house!!
Welcome back! Glad that everything is OK now. I guess COVID is here to stay, vaccination once a year probably. Looking forward to your new videos. See you in January 2026. I would love to come earlier, but my wallet disagrees...
Yes! Thank you… Covid was nasty and we are all fully vaccinated. I think after giving birth and then Darwin being so ill, I was a tad compromised and thus got so sick with it. It sure is a part of life these days. How exciting you’re booked to come! Wonderful to have it planned to look forward to 😊🌴🦎
Epic video!!
🤙🏼
welcome back
Thank you!!! Good to be back sharing the good island vibes! 🌴
Hellooooo! 😁😁
Hey David!!!! We’re back
@@TheIslandLifeofUs Wonderful. And I hope all of your troubles are behind you! It was so much fun spending time with Wes, Pauline, Hendrix & Maynard. Hopefully someday I can do the same with the rest of the Kellys!
