We get asked that a lot. We probably have to make a whole video about it at some point But all of them the meaning name meaning had a lot to do with picking their names Just going through lists like it wasn't like we knew somebody with those names or anything like that. I Pretty much named all our kids You did pretty much Pretty much John's had zero say I Mean he's tried to say but at the end of the day I pushed him out And I mean even in the Bible the women named their kids What? No Was somebody they like the wife said what the name was and they looked at the husband said Really? That's the name. I can't I think I was John somebody It was in the Bible he was he couldn't speak or he was I don't know I'm gonna get my stories mixed up Yeah, we have a turkey We would have had a turkey exactly my thumb, sorry I'm trying to figure out how to hold this best so I don't block the microphone so I can read your comments We would have had a turkey and an XM and what other names did you have? Yeah, still I don't even know But in Turkey The dads are allowed to have a say yes, of course They are and we did I mean, I feel like we talked about names and agreed on them. It was never like Don't like if I picked a name that you hated we wouldn't have gone with it. Oh, that's true That's accurate. So because there were some that I was like, no, I don't like that. So we just We teamworked it, but I think they originated as my idea. Like the question was where did you come up with the name? Did you drop your water You guys send help send help for Everly she is Okay, let me see if we can find out any oh also just in case you guys didn't know Marin's name There's several spellings that several ways you could spell it we wanted to name her Mary But we didn't want to name her ma are why Because the meaning of Mary like spelled the other way her way. I mean our are why is much more positive and happy So because we didn't want to like do Mary like Mary was like the nickname we wanted like a longer name, okay but like Marian Mary What other forms of Mary there are they mean like sea of bitterness and Sorrow and so her name means joy and So that's kind of why we chose the spelling that we did for Mary Okay back to trying to read some of these and see some questions Sorry She is so big for a week She is she's been like the 90th percentile for her length for her head size in the 60th percentile for her weight So she definitely is a big of a bit there, right? Her cheeks are getting all chubby are you getting chubby cheeks and it you guys I just had a flashback Flashback a throwback photo posted from like, you know, Facebook shows you those four years ago today you posted this Okay, it was six years ago. It was a picture of Elena and they are twins. They look so much alike. It's insane How's life with six John do you want to answer that oh And you did a great job with that it's our life, thank you Life with six is like life with five and then we add one more It's been good, it's just been like the transition process just like every other one was Like we're kind of getting the hang of it now Surely I still have like weekends I crash Weekends, I feel like I can make it through the week now and get a lot of stuff done The kids go to school and things are really productive and then the weekend comes down like John I'm so tired. Like I've been in bed the last two days like doing laundry and doing things but just Right. I'm just exhausted Let's see, do you yell at the kids or get on their level Both would probably yell first Actually, no We probably get on their level get on their level get on their level and then by three times of trying to get on their Level and I'm still not listening Then we yell Then you yell a little bit louder and then they finally listen and then you're like, okay Now let me bring it back to your level and like make up for my just yelling at you even though Feel like you deserved it. We just post a video about that topic. Mm-hmm. You can check our last video My what creating a peaceful? Relationship with your children that is all about yelling and apologizing. Mm-hmm Let's see. Where are we? Do you see any that we miss? I know I missed some I Know I missed one, but I can't find it Tyler and Elena fight like cats and dogs Except not the cats and dogs that get along like they fight like the cats and dogs The five minutes they last and they sleep in the same room so that tells you how smart John and I are Y'all should do a bedtime routine video I'd love to see how y'all get everyone to sleep bedtime is the hardest in our house. Bedtime is the hardest in our house. I hate bedtime so much Because it makes me feel like a crazy person And it's hard it's hard usually like we have to get Ev down first get her out of the way She goes by the earliest and then Jude and Addie have to take a really really warm bath and that kind of starts to wind them down sometimes There's no hope for Jude. She would just stay up forever. So Sometimes she needs a new pro that girl or melatonin that girl Literally will stay up to like 1130 Because then they still wake up really early our kids have been waking up the past two weeks Between 530 and 6 in the morning. Okay, like Some nights last week. They were waking up at 430 in the morning 430 in the morning people That's part of the reason I'm so exhausted this weekend It's so much. So yeah, we then we try to get those two down We try to get Tyler and Elena to get along long enough to like get in their bed and read quietly and fall asleep Hopefully, I don't know It's usually just like a little chaotic a little stressful a little and then once they all fall asleep It's like oh, please, you know that good feeling Bedtime That's okay, can you hold her name Oh the baby's name the baby's name is Marin Marin some people thought it was pronounced Marianne But it is not it is Marin Marianne would be a pretty name. Although I probably wouldn't spell it like that. And if I did I would put a hyphen I think but Marin like And then John's sister met this and she goes, you know, that's totally Michelle and Aaron right put together like that's his sister and his brother's name What do you think can you say hi to everyone Tell him what you're eating You don't show him tell him tell him what you're eating What is it? What are you eating Get a heart Okay, what do Tyler and Elena fight about I Mean you could name it like anything like Her sock touched me and it is clean and I don't like it. I don't know They pretty much hey, hey, that's not nice and I see your butt stop they pretty much fight about Whatever whatever they could think of they drive each other insane Like stop breathing basically. Hey Alan What are you doing? You're testing it John's gonna super chat us That's what he's doing Somebody said it wasn't working. So he's making sure do you Both have one-on-one time with each child and with each other, you know, that's something worth trying to like Work on and balance Yeah, what do you need Tyler? No, can you get up down There I am, oh, yeah, don't do that while you're wearing your roller skates in the house. Oh Hey John, it's nice to see you. It was like from my past self You get married. I mean Guys it's chaos here. It's like turn. I don't know if I don't have to read them on the screen. I would you never know You never know when you're gonna have like you'll have like peace and quiet and then chaos Yeah, so you should get in the middle of like Every way to the top bunk bed Adeline, that's really loud. Can you stop squishing that bag there? Okay, you guys it's not um, how long have you done YouTube I think our first video was uploaded when I was pregnant with Adeline and she's three so little over three years Good, maybe like not quite three and a half years. Probably When are you making a new intro Whenever we have time, it's just crazy here. We're really trying to get into a regular schedule We have three different platforms that we try to post content to so it's just a matter of Not Having Screaming everybody's gonna be screaming. Sorry you guys mom life Murray life Okay, let's see, let me see if I can Let me see if I can Here we go, okay, I know I missed some things Were you happy with your birth experience With Maren's birth. Yes. Oh my goodness you guys God orchestrated so much in that way Candace Hello, you are awesome, too. You are so sweet Shout out to Candace You want to go what what does Papa mean you won't go take a bath Bye-bye Okay, Maren's birth was amazing it was like really redeeming and healing and like I just Yeah after everything and all of the oh Just like chaos of her pregnancy It was it was a good It's good I'm 32. Oh, wait, there's looking at the camera there. I'm 32 and Danielle is going to be 29 again 29 again Second year being 29 is coming up. Just kidding. She's no Anniversary of her 29th birthday. We're just gonna do 29 again this year So I just I feel like I don't need to like throw a big party or anything because that's not like this 29 Who does Maren resemble the most Elena me you I don't know. She I see both of us in her for sure Yeah Elena that is right Jacqueline e le na it's actually a like a Spanish name and it means bright light bright light Elena Will you guys try for a number seven we didn't try for Any of our kids The truth is that Addy but I Don't think that we would try for number seven if it happened Not anytime soon, I don't think I can handle that now like I like to enjoy this But I think God's really like it's funny because right before I had her I would have said the opposite like No way never again like I'm done like a hundred percent, but When I said her birth was very redemptive and healing for me. I mean it because now I'm like You know, I don't know. I feel like I just used that whole situation to change my perspective on Yes, you did I apologize Well, if I was for my hat tea Okay, where are we new camera what's better rebel t3i or us 60d the 60d I couldn't compare it depends on what you're using it for photo or video. Why? They do different things The rebels versus the I'm not sure what the 60d. I Have 100% What that one? Is I just say that if you're not using any kind of DSLR or Canon that probably either one would probably be good I would see which one maybe like has a flip out screen if they both don't you don't need a flip out screen if you're Using it for photography. Oh Well, if you're using it for video, that's what I mean So it depends on what you're using it for like I think either one probably fine I had a t2i for a long time. So a t3i would be obviously a step up I thought that you didn't get the t3i because it for video because it wasn't as good for video But that was a long time. I Didn't get it because we got the 60 no, no, no Their first camera the first t2i that you bought you bought that one because the videos Do you consider taking a break from YouTube I've seen that question a couple times from you Sophie and Not really This shouldn't be she's in that room right there I don't know.

Oh wait, it's 165 now because they just add a new oil and only went up $5 for it And I was like man, that's such a good price. He's learning you guys What about this one called tear ducts? What did you say for that one? How old is your son Brianna are you nursing if you have breast milk put that on it like all day For real all day.

Okay, cuz we're we're too far you can talk to me Looking to get into oils already some good ones to start out with Ashley the starter kits the way to go you get a free diffuser You can get 12 oils and a diffuser And it's literally half the price that it would be if you bought them all separately Are you still going to church? It's always difficult with our children's naptimes. I have not been to church for a while Mostly because by the time we're ready like after having a baby to go back. I haven't went to Canada I haven't ate She's reading your questions you guys Mostly because it's the middle like cold and flu season and I Just don't feel like dealing with the sickness It's just whatever reason people won't miss church if they're sick. They're like, nope. We got to go This is church And so they'll bring their sick kids to church and then all the other kids get sick and so I'm afraid that they will get sick and bring it home and Marin and I just I just don't want to deal with the sick the sick and the missing school and all I'm too tired for it still so we've Kind of been taking a sabbatical From that but we will be going back soon. We've been talking about it like each week. We're like a little bit closer. Okay, maybe Maybe March When will you and John take a vacation, where would you go? Oh, we're supposed to take a vacation We're supposed to take a vacation to Alaska on a cruise with Young Living but we have to find a different room because we only booked a room for two and In order to take Marin, we have to have a room booked for three. I know that's not technically a vacation I guess with your baby, but it's eight days. So I'd be gone for like nine or ten days. So we would need to take her I know so we had we paid for it. We've paid for it We just we'll either have to sell our tickets or find some of the switch rooms with us The stress relieving oil is in the starter kit Kayla, there's actually a few stress away peace and calming valor Friends and lavender Tyler's watching Eating Just keep Brianna keep keep it up. Just keep it up put it in like Every couple hours throughout the day just let it sit there for a few minutes then use like a clean warm towel to wipe it away a Gentle pressure in the coat like wherever whichever corner it is gentle pressure and kind of wipe like outwards Also letting them get a good cry might help which I hate yeah, like that's what I said I think her tear ducts were clogged for a while because she never cried. She never cried And then she one time John went somewhere and I was taking a shower and I couldn't Get to her. I think it was fine really hard and that's when I heard it. Hey, they finally unclogged I don't I think I miss more. Yeah, buddy.
