We are a FUN and ADVENTUROUS family of 6 who lost our son to SIDS in 2014. Our biggest regret was not having family videos of him when he was here and is why we started doing daily vlogs!
Thomas is a 2X North American Champion in his kick-boxing career and Ashley is a network-marketing professional and speaker in her company.
Together we have 5 year old Identical twins- Simon & Cohen. Our son Miloh was born 12/12/13 and passed away 5/20/14. We were blessed with our Rainbow baby Ezrah this year on 03/02/17 and we have loved sharing our every day journey with our followers and are looking forward to where this journey takes us!
Hey guys, I know it's been a couple days,
or maybe weeks, since we vlogged.
But I wanted to show you guys
what we got going on in here today.
So this is Simon and Cohen's room.
Their beloved bunk bed, we are getting rid of.
And it is such a cute bed, we have loved it.
It's really echoey in here right now.
But, there just is not room.
So, right now we are moving the boys' rooms around.
So this will be Ezra's room,
and their room will be in Ezra's room.
So, because of that, we're selling the beds,
we're getting them their own individual twin beds
that'll go side by side.
Thomas is actually gonna make them.
I think as of right now, if he has time,
he's gonna make them.
If not, we'll just go buy some new beds.
But we are getting rid of the boys' toy room.
And so we're moving all that stuff up into their room.
And with all of those things in their toy room,
and beds and all that, this just would not have fit.
We need that other room to be a spare bedroom.
We have a lot of family coming to stay with us.
And we're pretty sure one of our cousins
is gonna be staying with us for the summer,
and so we just need an extra room down there.
So that's what we got going on today.
It's halfway disassembled.
Someone is coming right now to pick it up.
But we didn't wanna unscrew everything,
because we want them to kinda do that part,
and then they'll know where to put it
when it comes time to set it up at their house.
So we're gonna miss the bed, kind of.
It kind of was a pain in the butt,
because it filled this entire room.
There was literally no room in here to play or do anything.
It was just the hall to open a closet, and that's it.
They could sleep in here, and that's all.
So they're gonna actually be able to enjoy their bedroom,
and I'm excited for them.
Now that it's disassembled,
it seems like the boys wanna play on it, huh?
I literally look at this now,
and I'm like, how did this fit in that tiny bedroom?
It's the smallest room in our house.
I have no idea.
The door barely opened, like right here.
It literally was like two centimeters away
from the front door, or from their bedroom door.
So when you opened it, it was literally like perfect fit.
We didn't even think to measure the bedroom
before we had RC Willie come and install it.
So we paid for them to come and put it together,
which thank goodness, because it was like three,
there was like three guys.
It took them hours to put this thing together.
And they were like, I don't know how this is fitting in here
like you literally were saved by like three centimeters
for your door to open, because this bed was so big.
Okay, I'm gonna show you the big mess
we're dealing with right now.
We have, the bed is gone.
You can clearly tell I painted the wall
after we had the bed in here, the bunk bed,
and I just couldn't reach it.
So this is what Ezra's new room looks like.
We're in the middle of moving out all the clothes.
And then I'll show you the crazy disaster in here.
Oh my gosh, you guys.
Okay, so we kept the mattresses for now.
So they have something to sleep on.
And then gotta move this today.
I have all the boys' clothes in here.
I need to get that down.
Thomas to help me with that.
But yeah, it's coming along.
I should be done with all of this.
This is just like bedding and more stuff
that needs to go in here.
But yeah.
Welcome to our Friday night.
Look at little Ezra walking.
This is his first time walking with shoes.
And he looks so cute.
Oh, he's not liking them, no, huh?
Does it make you walk different?
Do you want to hold my hand?
Say, no, I got this.
I got this.
Thomas is working on this kitchen table for someone.
That's obviously the base and the legs.
And it's so pretty.
And this is a coffee table.
Look at this, you guys.
It's my favorite he's ever done.
Like, favorite thing ever.
It's so awesome.
And that's like a natural oak color.
Oh my goodness.
He's making those.
Those are nightstands and they have a barn door on them.
There's two of those, that's the top of the table.
So yeah, he's been busting things out left and right.
Pretty awesome.
It's pretty awesome.
Well, I feel like since we never get days like this,
when we do get them, we gotta be outside all day long.
Because it feels so nice.
And anytime I take Ezra back in the house,
he just starts screaming and crying.
He wants to be out here.
So, let's go see what the boys are doing.
What else did you guys just find?
A shell.
Like seashells?
Yeah, a shell, even an emerald.
An emerald?
Yeah.
What else do you guys think you could find down here?
What does that mean?
You guys find?
A shell.
A seashell.
Let me see.
A seashell, a seashell.
That came out of the seashell?
Yeah.
And they're diamonds?
Yeah.
What are you guys gonna do with them?
I don't know, say make some diamond swords
or make a diamond helmet.
I meant sword.
Okay, that's pretty cool.
Hey guys, are you liking your beds over here?
Yeah?
Yeah, that's a good idea.
Ezra, what do you think?
Do you think this is so fun?
We still gotta get their beds built.
But for now, this will work.
Is this so much fun, honey?
Good.
I think Ezra's having more fun than anyone, huh?
Yep.
Good morning, we are here at the indoor swimming pool.
We're gonna have Simon and Cohen's birthday party here.
We've never been to this pool,
but they have been wanting to go to the swimming pool
for months, basically since last summer.
And our pool isn't open,
obviously it's kind of cold still here in Utah.
So I figured indoor pool,
which is actually cooler than our real pool,
let's do their party there.
So that's what we're gonna go do today.

What's your checklist for every time you go to bed?
What do we do?
We walk, go pee, brush our teeth,
stay in our bed, go to sleep.
Good, that's good.
What have we done on our checklist?
What do we still need to do?
We have to say our prayers.
Okay, and then will you guys tell everyone goodnight?
Goodnight.
I would say to see my nana paw first.
Okay, say it.
Let me see my nana, no, my nana paw.
