Join us for an extra long day of caring for our three kids and getting ready to open our small business, Very Good Mothers Club, shop in Woodland Hills, Ca. Professional skateboarder, Shaun Hover, is an amazing dad - who does not like to be called a "stay at home dad" because he is rarely home. He is the primary caretaker of our kids who are 7, 3, and 2 and the kids are the luckiest for that.
Good morning, and welcome to a Friday with us.
Hi!
Hi!

Too cute.
Okay, do you want me to pick out your clothes?
You have to go to school today.

You're silent singing.
You look like a dolphin.

I know, Espera, I do.
My toast.
Your toast is cooking.
It's coming.
Gonna get a donut circle.
Maybe later.
But I want a donut circle.
No, no, Eloise, you're making a cookie.
I want a cookie.
Say goodbye to your brother.
Oh, do it real, Eloise.
This is important for him.
His hand is pulling my arm.
Okay.
I love you, love you, love you, love you, love you.
I love you, love you, too.
Best little hangy buddy ever.
Give me a high five.
Give me a high five.
No.
Love you, love you, goodbye.
It's gonna be a great day.
It's gonna be a horrid.
No.
Horrid opposite day.
Oh, horrid awful day.
Mama, I'm gonna miss you.
Oh, there they go.
I love you.
No, it's okay.
Daddy's gonna be home soon, honey.
He's gonna be home soon.
Hi, I'm taking Eloise to school.
I lost my sunglasses, so I get to wear Jess's.
I think they're either Jess's or Becca's, but.
What do you think, Eloise?
Do they look good on me?
What, you don't like them?
No.
Why not?
I look crazy.
I feel like Elton John vibe, not bad.
You know what?
It's never really done.
Dumped Eloise off.
Now I'm gonna spend 30 minutes working on emails
and whatnot here at Starbucks.
What do you think I order here?
I get the same thing every day.
Comment below.
What do you think it is?
What could it be?
What am I ordering?
It's crazy.
It's wild.
You're not gonna believe it.
You're gonna be shocked.
Hello.
Could I get a tall coffee, please?
And a half and half on the side.
And a water.
So of course I bring my own doughnut.
I'm not gonna spend an arm and a leg
on Starbucks 3D printed pastries.
Come on now.
Hey guys, bacon's ready.
Oh, it's piping hot.
There you go, juju pie.
What are you guys fighting about?
Okay, so you want this lollipop, buddy?
But Joel's just saying that Eloise gets it.
Okay, you know what, buddy?
I'll tell you what.
You can have that lollipop, okay, buddy?
Yeah, and you can have that one, juju.
Okay?
Okay.
Do you smell it?
It smells like poop.
Poop?
It smells like poop?
Mm, it smells good.
Yes, I agree.
Yes, it's poop.
No, it's not poop.
It smells good.
It's poop.
Then why are you eating it?
Okay, it was springtime in bear country,
and brother, sister, and honey bear
were thinking about Easter.
Actually, they were thinking about Easter candy.
Okay, ready?
Oh, one, two, three, go.
Oh no.
Ready, steady, go.
Nice.
Oh, whoa.
John, what's going on here?
I'm sorting through my Starbucks that I bring home.
I don't know how old they are.
I'm gonna become like my dad,
where he takes coffee home from Burger King,
and he numbers the dates.
You are your dad.
This is already happening.
Why do you bring them?
That's my next step,
because now I'm like,
I got all these coffees and creams and stuff,
and I don't know how old they are,
so I have to taste it to see if it's sour.
Ew.
Why do you have all of these?
Because I get a coffee, and then I get a half and half
on the side, and then I get a refill,
and I always come home and have some coffee
and some half and half left,
and I stick it in the fridge,
and now I've just got this plethora of coffees and creams.
I don't know what to do.
Why do you get your half and half on the side?
These people don't know how to put half and half in coffee.
It's completely inconsistent.
You go in and you order a coffee with half and half in it.
This one lady filled up the coffee a third of the way,
and then gave me two thirds, half and half.
After that, I was like, I'm done.
I'm ordering half and half on the side every time.
That's funny.
Okay, well, be blessed, as you figured it out.
Yeah, so do you want a nice coffee?
Yeah, I'll still be here, I guess.
This right here.
You didn't make it sound very delicious.
No, this is really good.
Here, look, see?
Look, that's your iced coffee.
I'll put a lid on it.
It's already iced cold.
Thank you.
And it's got half and half in it.
Wow, thank you so much.
I'll make sure it's good.
A little sour.
Gross, gross.
I'm just kidding, I think it's good.
You should try it.
I'm loving that.
Now, we are going to switch cars with Shawn and the kids,
so that I can take the bigger vehicle, the Palisade,
to move a checkout counter over to the shop,
or potential checkout counter.
We're trying to figure out how to make the front
of the shop really beautiful and really efficient,
and I'm not very good at that.
I'm not very good at just imagining something
into existence, as far as interior design goes.
I'm much better at looking at something and being like,
no, that's not working.
Let's try this, let's try that.
So this stage that we're in feels particularly hard for me,
but Jodi and Becca are super good at it,
and so I'm just following their lead.
But I usually drive the Lexus, which was given to me
from a friend, who is like the most generous person ever.
He just reached out and was like,
I was praying, and I wanted to give away my car,
and I just felt like you were the person
I wanted to give it to.
And I was like, really?
Yes, that would be incredible.
And it was right at a time when, car seats are so true.
Six and a half hours later.
It was right at a time when we really needed
to figure out our car situation.
One car we had was my grandma's car from like the year 1997,
and it was in an accident.
I was not involved in the accident,
but the car itself was in an accident.
And then we, what happened?
Oh, we had a Prius, and it just wasn't working.
I'm filming this so badly.
Orbit baby car seat, love it.
I have a code, use the code.
This is funny, they're not sponsoring this video,
but I was just texting with a friend about this today
because she was wanting to buy a car seat.
Orbit baby car seats are really nice,
and I have a code that you can use
to get you $50 off an Orbit baby product.
And you use the code Jess H when you shop.
Okay, okay, that's the end of that.
Anyway, all that to say, we have that Lexus
because someone in our life is really, really generous.
I don't know if she would want you to know who she is,
but if I told you, you'd be like, oh, cool.
Even the fact that we have the Palisade,
we could not have afforded the Palisade,
but Hyundai was really generous with us,
and we got to work with them.
They just really helped us out.
So we did buy it, but at a rate
that we could actually afford
because their team is really legitimately incredible,
and they saved us in a time when we needed saving.
So that's the car story.
You know what product you should know about
that I discovered from a friendly mom at a park?
This, this folding toilet I got on Amazon.
I'll link it because it is amazing
for really last minute toddler needs to use the potty.
And the mom who gave it to us was trying to help me
because I was having Wilson prop up against a tree
to go poop at a park because I just didn't know what to do,
and there was no toilet there.
And then, yeah, this mom came over,
was like, try this, it's amazing.
And she loaned me her little pop-up toilet,
and it was awesome, and I bought one that night,
and it's so stinking cool and easy and portable.
And so I just recommend it.
I think you should get it if you need one.
Here we are.
How's it going over there?
Good, good.
Feel good to be back on the saddle?
Back in the saddle.
We're filming videos today.
I have one video that's a sponsored video.
It's a little bit harder for me.
And then two videos for our website.
I feel a little nervous about this first one,
but it's a cute space, nice light,
so hopefully it goes good.
This is cool.
Yeah, it's so cool.
Wow, there we are, guys.
This is awesome.
Hey, I'm like mesmerized.
That's me on there.
That's me on there.
And that's our shop.
What do you think?
Yeah, it looks good.
Proud of your work?
Yeah.
You did that.
We have you here in our shop.
It's still getting put together,
but we're really happy about it.
Look how pretty it is.
You nervous?
I'm so nervous on this one.
Yeah, because I don't totally understand
how to talk about this product.
Even though I just logged in and I like it.
Honey, we're home.
Oh, nice.
I'll pull up a chair, actually.
Okay, hey, freak shows, get up here.
You gotta take a nap.
We're home.
Got the kids all loaded up.
As you may know, I'm a massive TikTok sensation,
and I gotta film an ad for this water bottle
for a TikTok at the skate park,
and I have a concept that I think should be pretty funny.
It's just for a video for mommy's YouTube channel, buddy.
I'm on mommy's YouTube channel.
Yes, we got the whole team.
We picked up Eloise from school,
and now we are pulling up to our happy place.
It's a skate park connected to a playground.
We're gonna eat lunch,
and we're gonna play with our friends,
and skate, and party all day long.
Right, guys?
Yeah!
I'm throwing sand at my eye.
Oh, your friend is throwing sand at your eye?
Well, that's not a very good friend, is it?
Eloise loves to speak to me in Spanish and code
so that her siblings don't hear.
Yeah, baby?
If you know what she said, comment below,
because I totally know exactly what she said.
Yeah, yeah, totally, baby, uh-huh.
Yep, yep, yep, yep.
What am I saying?
Yeah, well, we won't tell, I don't want to give it away.
So, you know, I don't want to spoil it
for the viewers who don't understand Spanish the way I do.
Ready?
Don't get me.
Don't, hey!
Don't get me!
Don't, hey!
Daddy, can you film it?
Yeah, let's do that.
One-handed cartwheel, I'm ready.
Don't get me, don't film me!
Yep.
Not bad, not bad.
You're crazy.
Woo, you're crazy, baby.
All right, guys, let's go home for real.
Okay, we'll just stay here then.
Watch this, watch, watch, daddy.
You're crazy.
All right, I'm watching, buddy.
Nice, my dude.
It's okay, buddy.
Hey, Juju.
Hey, Juju, that wasn't nice.
He was going for that swing, okay?
Okay, go say sorry.
Say sorry to Wilson.
Sorry, Wilson.
Here, say sorry, give him a hug.
Okay, do you want to try again, buddy?
Yeah.
All right, go ahead.
Yeah, my dude.
Okay, I'm watching, baby.
Hey, that one's tall.
Hey, let's go.
Hey, we got to go, guys.
You're right in his way.
Okay.
I think the TikTok was a massive success.
I'm going to edit it,
and I'll show you the final results.
All right, this rail's looking pretty long.
Let's see if we can grind the whole thing.
Hey, I figure this is a good time
to tell you about my Santeco water bottle.
This bad boy is pure stainless steel.
Strong as an ox, light as a feather.
Will keep your coffee scalding hot all day
and your water ice cold all night.
My favorite part is the carrying lanyard.
Easy to bring, easy to clean.
Santeco water bottle.
Never go skating without it.
We're on our way home.
Everybody is dirty and happy,
just the way God intended it.
The kids take turns picking songs for the ride home,
and I thought the playlist was fun.
First, Eloise picked Devil Went Down to Georgia
by the Charlie Daniels Band.
Then Jules picked Robots by Flight of the Conchords.
Wilson picked Ice Cream Truck by Truck Tunes.
Eloise picked These Boots Are Made for Walking
by Nancy Sinatra.
And now we're going to listen to,
what was it, Burying a Friend?
Billie Eilish.
Oh yeah, yeah, I totally knew that.
All right, freaks, here's the big plan.
We get out, you go inside, you rip your clothes off,
you get in the bath, you wash up, you go sit at the table,
you eat your dinner, you eat your half of a donut,
or a cookie in your case, go brush your teeth,
read a book, and go to bed, and pick your nose.
Everyone's just picking their nose, what's going on?
Okay, what have we got here?
Attracts money.
Attracts money.
Time to light it.
The workday is almost done.
The website?
No, so it's in Shopify, actually.
It'll be good.
Now, we are trying to fix our website.
Is that stressful?
It'll be good, it'll be worth it.
Okay.
You guys like your cookies?
Make sure you wash your face.
So normally I'm like Mr. Chef,
but tonight we're just doing leftover pasta for the kids,
and then I'm gonna do a leftover everything stir fry
for me and Jess.
So we got leftover corn, chicken, sausage, asparagus, ribs,
and we're gonna do some onions and garlic,
and put it on rice.
Don't poop at the table, Juju.
Do you guys like your dinner?
This is really my dinner, it's just not fair.
Oh yeah, those are yours.
Whoops, sorry buddy, I'll switch them.
Do you guys like your rigatoni?
Yeah.
Yeah, Wilson?
Yeah, Jules?
Oh, you look like you like it.
I don't like it.
That's a huge bite.
That's a huge lick.
I've been having a headache for approximately 10 days,
so Jodi showed me this stuff to use.
Vegan Cool Hemp Muscle Rub.
You get it on Amazon.
I just rubbed my forehead and all around here with it,
and it is really nice and very helpful.
Very menthol-y.
I'm gonna, Rebecca is, what are you doing?
I'm trying to connect this contact list.
Contact list.
Payment thing.
But it's just red lights, I don't get it.
And if she can't figure it out,
I certainly will not be able to.
Because she's the techie one.
I believe in you, we'll come back.
We're hungry, it's seven something and we gotta go home.
And she's going snowboarding tomorrow,
so you really need a good night's sleep.
So guys, Mommy is not gonna be home in time for bedtime,
so you guys are gonna have to be good listeners for Daddy.
Yeah, she like locked a key in the,
she locked something in the shop
and then needs to get a key to open it, blah blah blah,
so she's not gonna be home till after bedtime.
Well, Jess is missing out
on the ultimate leftover stir fry.
It's a lollipop.
That's a lollipop?
A spinach lollipop?
Do you like that?
Do you like spinach?
Do you like spinach?
It's a play truck toons.
A play concord.
I said it.
Did it work?
Yeah.
Good.
Okay, guys, it's toothbrushing time.
Grab your toothbrush.
Here's the yellow one, Juju.
Grab your toothbrush, buddy.
Okay, grab your toothbrush.
What's going on, my baby?
The elephant.
What's the elephant doing?
The elephant is crying.
Aw, I'm sorry, elephant.
All right, can I hold you?
I'll brush them first, then you can brush them, okay?
Daddy, look, I'm brushing my book.
Brushing your book.
You gotta brush your teeth, buddy.
I'm actually helping.
I want to be that little guy.
Aw.
I want to be that little guy, too.
Doing great.
I was trying to, and then it wasn't working.
You're doing good, baby.
No, it didn't work.
Oh, okay.
Hey, listen, your teeth, not your book.
Okay, buddy, say night-night to Juju,
and go in your room and do your quiet reading
with Eloise, and I'll be there in a few minutes.
Come on, little baby.
Let's go nay-nay.
Look, a bridge.
I can't get in the boat.
I want to!
Okay, Juju, say night-night to everybody, night-night.
Where else, buddy?
Don't tickle me.
Okay, okay.
I love you, buddy.
No, I already did both ears, like, a hundred times.
Okay, night-night, guys.
I love you.
I love you.
Jess is coming in.
Honey, you're home.
We had a bit of an adventure.
You locked her rings in and the key that you were given.
Doesn't work?
Doesn't work, so we had to go to Jodi's house,
get a key, come back, get the rings locked in,
or go back to Jodi's house.
Oh, my gosh.
Yeah, and I haven't had dinner in better shape.
Oh, jeez.
Well, there is dinner, delicious dinner on the thing.
There's not a ton of it, because I ate a lot.
Okay.
But it's just a little stir fry of ribs
and sausage and chicken and asparagus and onions and garlic.
That's all the leftovers.
It was actually really good,
especially with this hot sauce from Spain.
Okay, we're going to end the video
because I think I'm all done.
Yeah.
Okay, thanks.
Video over.
Thanks for watching our day.
It was fun.
Yeah, it was fun.
It was fun.
Typical day.
Yeah, cool.
Any plans for the weekend?
Easter.
Easter.
I kind of want to show you our shop.
Sean hasn't been to the shop.
I know, it's ridiculous.
I was thinking maybe tomorrow we could take you to the shop.
That'd be fun.
Becca's going snowboarding,
so I thought maybe we could go as a fam.
Oh, cool.
Check it out.
Yeah, let's do it.
I'll see you here, guys.
Have a great weekend.
Bye.
