    Violet is looking more like Everett everyday. So adorable

  2. @christopherstewart9266 on February 14, 2025 at 6:53 pm

    Thanks for taking the time to share. Really informative 😊

  3. @prettypurplebunny6163 on February 14, 2025 at 6:53 pm

    💜Hi Lauren. Loved this. Thank you for sharing your opinion on these items. I am going to share with another family about the Tubby Todd to see if they have tried it. Their little girl has eczema pretty bad. Sending love, hugs 🤗 and prayers your way. Take care💜

  4. @Gigi-fv9ky on February 14, 2025 at 6:54 pm

    I wish I could have been a mother. With my niece, we used a bulb aspirator, little blue rubber thing with a long tip, to remove the congestion. Some of these items weren’t around back then but seem very useful! I am certain these great recommendations will help many. I was a classics major in college and Ceres is the Roman equivalent of the Greek goddess Demeter, agriculture, motherhood, etc. You pronounce it like SEER-ease.

  5. @betsyhertzog1454 on February 14, 2025 at 6:55 pm

    Got some good ideas for products to use for our 7grandkids , 1 great..thanks

  6. @REFUGEBOOKGIVEAWAY on February 14, 2025 at 6:55 pm

    Have you tried the bumco bum brush for rash cream to keep it off fingers and under nails

  7. @JayBayForShort on February 14, 2025 at 6:56 pm

    Why is it called triple paste? Is it like a triple antibiotic? Or just thicker, lol! Just wondering. Not that you needed the antibiotic part of it….

  8. @claraoverman7347 on February 14, 2025 at 6:56 pm

    I just ordered the camera for my Granddaughter for my great grand daughter. Thank you so much.

  9. @LindaDowling-hf2vz on February 14, 2025 at 6:57 pm

    Breast milk is great for getting cradle cap off the head

  10. @lindajohnson8347 on February 14, 2025 at 6:59 pm

    Mrs Lauren your are so beautiful and such a great Mom baby violet is growing so fast she is a cutie pie i just love your family great video

  11. @danielleayde2330 on February 14, 2025 at 7:03 pm

    Violet looks a lot like Everett. Her eyes and smile.

  12. @cathybennion6070 on February 14, 2025 at 7:05 pm

    You can tell Violet will not be a high end girl. From the time she was born no nonsense things for her. She looks so much like her little brother.

  13. @AllThingsClarice on February 14, 2025 at 7:05 pm

    Hey Lauren 👋 may I say, Miss Violet is growing sooo fast and nice to see her hair is coming in dark. She is also becoming very vocal. She is indeed a precious little princess. Big hugs to you all and God Bless 😘🤗🎀🐾

  14. @JayBayForShort on February 14, 2025 at 7:07 pm

    As a mom, what do you think about "donor milk"?

  15. @michellem9275 on February 14, 2025 at 7:07 pm

    Just luvvv watching your videos, my children are all grown and gone on with their own lives…breast fed them..sure of wish I had some of those handy items when they were babies…your family brings so much joy!😊

  16. @LindaDowling-hf2vz on February 14, 2025 at 7:08 pm

    Cuddle and be kind dolls are awesome

  17. @marthameyer7918 on February 14, 2025 at 7:08 pm

    My daughter is expecting our first grandchild in 2 months so I really enjoyed this video. Thank you for taking your time to make it. Your family is so wonderful!❤

  18. @1Staggs on February 14, 2025 at 7:09 pm

    You are always so sweet and considerate to want to help out where you can. This is so useful to new moms to have the extra info and explination about these products. Miss Violet is definately well taken care of without forgetting yourself and what works for you. She looks like the happiest baby with that cute smiley face !! ♡

  19. @BettyBass-o1p on February 14, 2025 at 7:10 pm

    She is going to be left handed, Yea!❤️ we had four children and two are left-handed into or right handed mom and dad are left-handed. You have a beautiful family and Violet is favoring her baby brother.

  20. @Pastelleoja on February 14, 2025 at 7:10 pm

    I don’t need those baby items baby’s are to big for those things but this was an interesting Video to watch 😊 baby is so adorable

  21. @amyerion9710 on February 14, 2025 at 7:11 pm

    Hi Luna! Hugs to you. I wish you were around for my son. 34 now, I thought I am getting all the great stuff and use only the best. Reality was a hard slap. I would say that 90% was using simplified items and just basics. This video will really help a ton of new moms. Thanks for doing this. Hugs.

  22. @jenifitzpatrick6665 on February 14, 2025 at 7:11 pm

    Thank you for sharing. My youngest is 19 so some of the items were not available then but I know have 2 grandsons so you gave me some great ideas. I really think I need to check out the diaper cream and the ointment you shared. I love seeing Violet and how she observes everything. ❤

  23. @rajimac on February 14, 2025 at 7:11 pm

    In Ireland now the health authority are telling parents not to I bouncers or walker type bouncer things. I’d never used them for my children but when I asked my daughters of they wanted one for their babies they told me this is the new guideline. It’s interesting how different countries have different rules.

  24. @kimaugust9920 on February 14, 2025 at 7:14 pm

    In this video with Violet laying on the ground she looked exactly like Wesley

  25. @jem-u6f on February 14, 2025 at 7:14 pm

    love to see & hear Luna for a change

  26. @kaydublin5164 on February 14, 2025 at 7:14 pm

    Great video, my son is grown, so I don’t need, but maybe grand babies someday.😊

  27. @tsamsonoff2358 on February 14, 2025 at 7:15 pm

    The nail buff is definitely something I find new parents feel better using because they’re so afraid of the paper-light nails, but once you’re a seasoned mom there’s no need for it and we’re comfortable just using clippers 😂

  28. @HelenDickenson-xl9dl on February 14, 2025 at 7:17 pm

    Violet is Everett double . I love watching u all. Looking really well lauren. ❤❤❤ i was interested about the baby items. Lots of love xxx

  29. @annaking9213 on February 14, 2025 at 7:19 pm

    Enjoyed

  30. @patf4780 on February 14, 2025 at 7:21 pm

    Grandma here. I bought the spatula for diaper cream.. the baby uses it to chew on as a teether! LOL we never used it for diaper cream. It’s funny how each baby is different with bottles. We used playtex droppin’s for most of the grandsons but one had reflux and wound up with Dr Browns wide neck glass bottles! I agree the graco pack n play was ehh. I won a 4 Mom’s Breeze Go play yard. Loved it so much better. Wet bags are amazing we used Smartbottoms and Thirsties ones. Thank you for sharing this video! Violet is adorable and looks a lot like her brother Everett!

  31. @lindathomson3274 on February 14, 2025 at 7:21 pm

    I’m a Grandma now….and I must say Lauren….I found this to be very interesting indeed…. Enjoyed the video….Bless❤

  32. @itqitc on February 14, 2025 at 7:21 pm

    i’ve never had children and at 45 I don’t plan to have any yet i just watched an hour long video reviewing baby items and loved every minute of it .

    The way she smiles when she looks at you is absolute magic. you are so blessed.

  33. @Christa. on February 14, 2025 at 7:23 pm

    The ubbi is the best

  34. @BarbaraCullum on February 14, 2025 at 7:24 pm

    A very thoughtful video. Thank you for sharing. Violet has a healthy appetite. She’s an absolute doll! She sure loves her brothers too. Miss Luna is very mindful of Violet now, so sweet. Really enjoyed watching this. You and your family have a wonderful day 😊. 💜from AR.

  35. @JayBayForShort on February 14, 2025 at 7:28 pm

    how long does it last the cooler and warmer? Lol. I am not a huge pumper but yes i did some but i will usually breastfeed and supplement the whole time. I did have a portable warmer that i used and just worked perfectly for my babies. You can just insert your regular baby bottle and plug it in! It works in the car too and plug it in, i think!!!

  36. @sherri-iw8xq on February 14, 2025 at 7:31 pm

    I was curious if you have been to Once Upon A Child thrift store 🤔🤔 Maybe you can take us there in one of you’re videos.🤔🙏 I seen it briefly on YouTube.🤗🤗🤗

  37. @hillarywattenbarger3203 on February 14, 2025 at 7:32 pm

    I think I’ve heard the bath chair can be flipped over for bigger babies that can sit. Don’t quote me but I heard it on some tictok hack video ❤️

  38. @janetfaircloth208 on February 14, 2025 at 7:33 pm

    Nice things to help out young families now ….not so much when my daughter was a baby almost 50 years ago. Kisses to Peanut & Luna.

  39. @lindadugas9292 on February 14, 2025 at 7:34 pm

    Just love seeing Violet she is so beautiful her smile melts my heart.

  40. @annetuttle7712 on February 14, 2025 at 7:35 pm

    I have to save this so I know what to get at te next baby shower!!!

  41. @lesliemichael3315 on February 14, 2025 at 7:36 pm

    At 66 I am expecting my first grandchild, baby Charlotte. I took notes 😀. Thank you! Your family is just so wonderful, you and Mark are great parents to all your children.

  42. @LindaDowling-hf2vz on February 14, 2025 at 7:38 pm

    Sweet video. Lots of healing hugs for all of you. Hugs 🤗

  43. @mbmbm7528 on February 14, 2025 at 7:39 pm

    Will you be doing a Q&A for you and baby Violet ? my question would be if you had to use only one adjective for each of your children as a baby what would it be? my mom did this with her 7 kids, we laughed…. quiet,sassy,crabby etc.

  44. @madzabinga8382 on February 14, 2025 at 7:42 pm

    How often does Violet have PT and OT?

  45. @DonnaLeonard-q5u on February 14, 2025 at 7:43 pm

    These videos make my day, whatever subject you talk about is full of information and plus we get to see our smiling Violet, just a great way to start my day❤

  46. @shirleyperry8593 on February 14, 2025 at 7:43 pm

    Hi there❤

  47. @irismayyy on February 14, 2025 at 7:47 pm

    Just in time! I’m 28 weeks with my first, and my baby shower is tomorrow 🎉
    Thank you 🙏 ❤

  48. @PamelaClem on February 14, 2025 at 7:47 pm

    Great videos for new moms to be and new moms already.

  49. @deshawndac4163 on February 14, 2025 at 7:47 pm

    The look on your face at the sound coming from the closet. I am hollering! Hahahaha!

  50. @rowenaboone7740 on February 14, 2025 at 7:49 pm
