Transcripts
I'm going to just start here in the main
bedroom and kind of work my way down and
uh kind of make all my mistakes here
because it's been a little while since
I've last done
this here goes nothing part
two you guys I cannot believe I'm about
to say this but our baby is going to be
born tomorrow
so today I'm going to be Switching gears
and working on the camper I got to get
it ready for this summer and the reason
why is because I mean this is what we'll
be staying in on the property but there
are several things that are broken some
things are my fault like the window uh
to the front door that I kind of slung a
rock at with the cutter we were not in
it yes they
W the uh table is broken like the it's
disconnected from the wall the drive
back um the microwave has like fallen
into its own cavity and I mean I'm sure
there's plenty of other little things
too the oven's broken too yeah still I
mean kind of means we'll be rugging it
for the summer oh my
gosh all five of us are going to be
coming back and staying in that little
camper and um yeah rugging it for the
summer
a couple videos back I accidentally said
rugging it and instead of roughing it
instead of roughing it and
I had no idea and then we're like oh
people know what I meant and then after
we had posted the video someone's like
oh I've never heard rugging it before so
we actually Googled it from that point
forward and don't do
that Urban Dictionary comes up
it was very funny I just want to be
clear that there's no rugs in this
camper
[Music]
be
be that didn't sound good that didn't
sound good at all well we're missing the
screws and judging by this giant hole
back here probably end it up down there
literally the screws are constantly
coming out of everything yeah but they
do say driving this down the road is
like a earthquake constant earthquake in
a normal house so so looking at the
screw that I pulled out from the other
side uh it's just a small little steel
self tapping screw so just I got plenty
of those it doesn't need to be paint
matched or anything so I'll go get one
of those this camper is a little bit
smaller than I remember isn't it
no
it's as big as I remember oh my God just
like the thought of being here with a
third child is a little terrifying we're
going to lose our dining room
table maybe you don't even fix
[Music]
it first thing down microwave next thing
up is this um dining table not sure what
happened with this how it came out well
probably got ripped out by the kids from
like leaning on the table definitely got
ripped out by the
kids so yeah put some new screws in and
hope that lasts any
longer how much Gunk you think this
going to leave I mean nothing some goong
can't fix right
yeah well judging from here right now I
can already see a bunch of black VI
really yeah that's going to look
great can't look any worse than that
this stuff really sticks tape so sticky
at
all can I put it on your arm no B that's
demented I just want to see how strong
it is
please try being a woman a then try
being a hairy is
paint I can fix your
hairy no really can I just try real Qui
baby do it for the tube
no your
eyebrows I bet it could pull
some come here bear
okay is this truly the way to do it cuz
it seems like you're breaking more
things me you're doing it right
what so all these do are just like
little Stoppers to plamp in did you just
break them
all that's what they want need did you
just break them all yeah they a little
broken a little broken
how do things get a little broken
they're either broken or they're not
broken they get a little
broken just a little
broken darling how you going to pop it
back in super glue hopefully the new
window comes with a new trim
piece so old windows out I did happen to
find the exact window for this uh this
door luckily it's a whole kitten
Kaboodle so that comes with the shade
the frame literally everything so that
should be in in a few days but we have
some rain on the forecast so and I got a
big hole here so better put out this
awning a little
bit so as far as the RV goes I'm waiting
on that window to come in that should be
in today but in the meantime I'm going
to start on the drywall process in here
in the cabin so today to start that off
is just to fill all my big cracks deal
with any of the broken pieces of drywall
all that fun stuff so I'm going to just
start here in the main bedroom and kind
of work my way down and uh kind of make
all my mistakes here cuz it's been a
little while since I've last done this
but I digress
are you going to start in the closet
that's probably the smartest thing to do
I think that's what you did before yeah
yeah and while we're in this room I
figured I would address this window I've
seen a lot of people ask is it sagging
what's going on so the window isn't
actually sagging it's just a cheaper
window and this little trim piece right
here is sagging so spener actually has
to go through and uh repair our new
window so that's what that is cuz I'm
sure it's been driving some people nuts
cuz it's been driving me
nuts it's on the to-do list
[Music]
now the real question is do you think
you're going to be able to finish
drywall with those baby
com yeah there's not a chance I'm having
way too many
[Music]
contractions let's just hope my mom
comes before the baby
does
[Music]
seriously here goes nothing part
[Laughter]
two
oh
pigeon the first of moon drips
[Music]
you guys I cannot believe I'm about to
say this but our baby is going to be
born tomorrow and I'm kind of freaking
out about it a little bit I'm really
excited but I'm also understandably
nervous and yeah we just we have a
scheduled induction for tomorrow we did
this for a couple reasons but one of the
main ones is is because we needed
somebody to come into town to watch our
other two kids while I give birth so you
know Spencer doesn't miss the birth of
his
child so we are going to take full
advantage of this time that we have a
baby sitter cuz this literally never
happens so we're going to have Grammy
and Grandpa watch the kids it's my mom
and my stepdad that are in town so
they're going to watch the kids and
we're going to try to get done as much
as
possible cuz the clock is ticking are
you nervous I
mean uh not really about the birth but
like you would be but uh the only thing
I was nervous about is having Grammy
here in time M but now that she is the
only other thing I'm nervous about is
what comes
after the
unknown the
newborn right no it'll be great we've
done this before we can do it
again I think I hope all right so where
are we at in the drive out
process uh well all our big gaps and
cracks are filled so now it's on to just
mud and tape yeah and sorry if it feels
like we are all over the place cuz we
are we we really are we just have
obviously a lot of stuff going on one
second we're working on the camper and
the next second it's time for the next
step in the drywall process and you know
you have to wait however many minutes
for things to dry and so we're just like
bouncing back and forth and doctor's
appointments yeah lots of doctor's
appointments so there just a lot going
on but hopefully today we can get done
as much M and tape as possible cuz I
don't know the next time you're going to
be able to
work that's true
[Music]
feel like a child at
A's job right
now it's going to look good this is how
everything goes it's rough at first
so are you regretting putting so many
screws in the
drywall now this Cur up in time yes
but once we're in transport and there's
not a single
crack no I won't regret it
[Music]
[Music]
we are doing
it
tired say that it's kind of weird like
so far it's very different from our
other two cuz before it's like a Mad
Dash to the
hospital so this time it's just very
calm and hopefully that is the theme for
this labor everything goes land yeah
fingers
crossed I can't believe we're about to
meet our
baby about to be
outnumbered you ready to play some
Zone how you doing over your dad
sleepy you look like it you were snoring
a minute ago when the nurses came in in
the most uncomfortable chair in the
world okay a little update they broke my
water and then we just uploaded a
YouTube video because YouTubers don't
get maternity
leave so we got that done and that was
really good timing because then they
came in and we're like okay now we're
going to start y on pin so I was like oh
okay things are just happening very
quickly I feel like this Baby's just
going to be here before we know it you
excited I'm very excited I'm nervous but
I I think the way that you said it a
little bit ago is probably the best way
to describe it yeah what I was telling
Ken
earlier I had an epiphany while I was on
the
toilet with b and Cam I was more nervous
than I was
ready uh if that makes any sense where
this time I am very excited to meet the
new
one more excitement than fear yeah
yeah I don't know I can't wait to meet
you well quick little update you guys I
think things are
uh oh
man oh man I'm getting
nering well quick little update you guys
guys uh we're getting closer I can
definitely
tell uh with the uh contractions
and how uh she's breathing and
everything like that so we're getting
close maybe maybe another hour or two
before we meet the little one it's going
harder harder harder harder harder
harder harder oh my y
[Music]
princess does this look so
funny look like you're small old
[Music]
we babies
I buddy you look so big next to
her you got another best friend now yes
B
sister hi beautiful you got both your
eyes open you look so
sleepy you had a big day yesterday oh my
gosh how pretty are you going to go back
to sleep oh
good hey you guys you guys want to show
your sister your room uhuh that all
three of you are going to share one
day wow
whole lot of chickens in
here man it is weird having three kids
in here right now and she's tiny can you
imagine when she's bigger it's already
chaotic can't imagine
then and a wood burning
stove so that other room will be
eventually where you go but at first
whenever we're in the mountain you're
going to be in here with Daddy and I
don't worry we we won't put you in
there all right so I'm about 3/4 of the
way through uh my first layer of mun
tape so I just have the other bedroom
and some screw holes in the hallway area
to finish up then I can move on to my
vertical joints and all my corners and
whatnot and then my first layer will be
done and then this next several layers
start
[Music]
[Music]
it doesn't feel real finally sitting
here with our baby yep and officially
outnumbered so we just wanted to quickly
introduce you guys to the newest member
of the family our second daughter
Scout yeah she's absolutely perfect and
we are so so in love this time around I
got to say everything kind of went
according to plan so as far as like
scheduling everything out we just with
the other two to they came when they
came with her since we are so reliant on
family members to come in town and
whatnot uh which by the way Grammy thank
you yes thank you Grammy and Grandpa yes
you guys huge help but anyways
everything just went beautifully to plan
just we were fearful that she was
actually going to come early since she
was the third child and um she was
measuring big yeah all that so I was
definitely scared yeah that we weren't
going to have someone here to watch our
other two yeah and we were worried about
the due date not lining up mhm but
everything worked out perfectly and she
came and and she's just perfect it's
really funny because I mean for a long
time we thought we were done after two
kids and we had contemplated for a while
whether or not we should have a third
and ultimately we decided that we did
obviously and I just I can't I don't
even know how to express how happy I am
that we made that decision yeah despite
how scary it was
because it just feels so right well we
also both came from three kid household
so it just kind of felt like that was
the missing piece and also we knew it
would just be such a short looking back
it would be such a short window of time
that where things are really difficult
and right right we would not regret it
looking back
so yeah that's why I kind
of we're like let's do it
literally but even right now like her
being a newborn I just feel like
everything has been so much smoother
this time like so far so far yes I mean
last night was a little bit like a
little rough yeah for me but I mean
that's to be expected and I just feel
like this time you know being our third
go around
and having a little bit more experience
I think that's what's helping things go
a little bit yeah
honestly uh the hardest part is the
other two and more more little man than
anything right he
he's have a lot of energy
yeah but yeah they are absolutely in
love with her we all are and it just I
know this sounds corny but she literally
feels like she was the missing piece to
the puzzle and I feel very complete now
and I just I'm so happy that we made the
decision that we did yeah me too but
this is 100% the last year I knew that
was coming I know I
agree we are complete
