It's such an exciting time going into the future but we all as parents know the tough decision to say this is the end of babies but you've done right you are raising your kids well and I'm sure Justin is having his emotions too as well. You're great parents and you've all been through so much to have your babies . Brynn is proud of all of you up in heaven!!
more about Pepper please! how is he doing with training, does he watch over the kids, how have you encouraged the twins to be gentle with him, I still think of Beau, Pepper is lovely and a handsome soul. x ✨💛
All the things you are saying about wanting to be able to meet all their needs physically and emotionally is super important for me too! That’s what I want to be able to do for my future children!😊🥰 My needs weren’t met by my parents and I swore to myself at a young age that I’d do better for my children!(:
I remember going through this. It was, indeed, a very difficult transition. Being an infertility patient as well, I felt like I never wanted to stop being able to be pregnant. It just takes time. There were days where I just cried and other days I was very glad I'd made the decision to be done. Just take it a day at a time and recognize some days, it'll hit you like a ton of bricks and that it's okay to mourn this phase ending. Thinking of you ❤️
I totally relate! It is so bittersweet closing that chapter. I go back and forth but in my heart, I know I am stretched thin enough as is. Glad to know I’m not alone in feeling this way!
I 1000% understand. Hubs and I just scheduled his vasectomy. Our 3rd girl was born 7 months ago and I *knew* leaving the hospital that I was filled to the brim with contentment ❤️💕💖
My Hubs vasectomy was canceled the morning of. Between appointments we got pregnant with our 4th! We were so careful…and only One encounter. Our youngest was 5 months old. We thought we were done
I bought one of the baby books for my baby girl from your recommendation and I absolutely love it! It is a little pricey but so worth it ❤ also how did you manage crawling stages on hardwood floors?
Thank you so much for the planner link. I have been using an excel spreadsheet, but found that I’d rather do my budget by hand.😉 You have a beautiful family, I love and pray for you guys!! I’m so proud of you and Justin because you’re so young, actually loving and parenting your children, while managing a house, work, and life. ❤🥰🤗❤️
That is so fun! I remember when my oldest boy (5yrs) played in an L shaped kitchen cabinet with his two year old brother...they would take flaslights and trucks and all sorts...then they started using the cabinet next to it under the oven...my house was really old and there was lots of space....so i just left all the tupperware and plastic in those play cabinets ....that is one of the few times I remember then getting along!!
Looking at Faye I just get reminded of Emma so much, she looks so similar! What will you do with your embryos now, will you continue to pay to store them? I know you answered in a Q&A previously but can't remember.
I do understand your feelings but don't let it consume you so that you can't enjoy the children you're blessed to have. I'm sure you won't and you have every right to feel as you do.
Wait until the homework, the counseling issues at school with bullies, the homework…, the sports events, the homework …. It is such a rough time transitioning from baby to “kid” . I now have a college student, a senior and a freshman and I watch you and cry because I was you one time . This will all go so fast . Hold on! The ride is amazing !
Each person has to take whatever time they need to make a decision that is this important. I can tell that you and Justin have talked this over. Can Justin give a husbands/males point of view. This subject doesn't just impact one person. Just a thought. It was so cute seeing the kids playing together. The twins are looking so much older. Now Emma has play mates that have some stannama. They give her a nice race. You look so happy and content.☺️
We played with Lincoln Logs as a kid and I am 72. My husband did that after our 3rd one, there are great things ahead with the kids and it is so nice when they can all get in the car and buckle up themselves. Then to be done with diapers.
I would love it if you had one more. I think deep down you want one more. You can always use your embryos though if that is the case! Love your family!!😍😍😍
I had 5 babies and I actually cried when I pulled all of my maternity clothes out of the closet. I had my tubes tied after baby #5 and I also knew it was the right thing to do.
I have 6 adult children& this is how we spaced them: boy,2 years later,another boy,2 years later,A GIRL!!! YAY!!!,3years later a boy,3 years later,a girl,3 years later,a girl. By the time Crystal(youngest) was born,the oldest was 12 & when we came home from the hospital,the other 5 were waiting at the front door. My oldest son immediately took her from my arms& they all ran to the master bedroom(where her crib was set up)& I had a comfy gown& warm booties layed out to change her out of her homecoming clothes. When we got in there,they were all on our bed& my oldest was changing her clothes. We laughed&I told them we were going to the family room to sit down& to just bring her to me when she gets hungry. I had 6 C-sections& I had my tubes tied when Crystal was born. Was I ready? NO!! Did I want more babies?YES!! When our first daughter was born,EVERYONE assumed we were done since we finally got our girl,but I knew we weren't done!!! But,by #6,I decided I HAD to save myself FROM MYSELF!! When she turned 3,I had the strongest urge to have a baby!! It was BAD fir about 3 weeks. Then,it went away& hasn't come back since. I think all mothers go through this,but it will pass. Meanwhile,while she is so tiny,absolutely let her nap in her carrier strapped to you! One day,when Crystal was 3 months old,I decided to hold her for 24 hours& not put her down for ANY REASON!! And,I didn't! I knew she was my last& ,if I wanted to hold her 24 hours straight,I was going to! I really paid for it the next day though!!! Enjoy your babies& know you are doing the best thing for everyone! Infertility no longer has a place in your life!! I promise you,as the grandmother of 6 so far,there are so many joys to come,you won't believe it!! God bless you& Justin & your adorable family!!💖💖💙💙💖
I was offered to tie my tubes after my fourth I’m so done with having babies but I’m only 27 and even though I 1000% don’t want anymore babys I couldn’t do it it just felt like to big of a decision to make at 27. 😩
I totally totally get it. My csection is in two days and I’m so sad. I’ll be getting a tubal done. This is our 3rd baby here on earth and I just know my body can’t do this again. Plus I’m 34 and tired. Lol. But I’m so sad this season is going to be over. It’s bittersweet.
I had two late baby's to new man at 43then 45 99oz gas air my girl was21 she thought I was mad best thing I ever done lost my 1son then 4years latter other son god works in a wonderful way sons would be 46 42 others 43 33 2119
I had my 3rd in aug. and got my tubal and I’m just soaking up the baby newborn moments and it’s really going by so fast it’s bittersweet. Enjoy your time as a mommy of a newborn❤
Rachelle honey, I don't know but it looks like you have a pretty full life. LOL. I wish you all the best and that everything will turn out the way it should. Love y'all.
Great doing budgeting videos because so many don't know how to budget. It's so important if you are going to become financially independent down the road. My advise has always been to pay your home loan off weekly not monthly. Still paying the monthly amount by every week. Banks don't like you doing it but they can't stop you. Your able to get in front because your interest isn't accumulating as much and your able to be paying of your principle. The interest is the killer. Any time you have extra money put it into your home loan. Down the track if you get into finance strife, you won't have to worry about your home loan, or losing your home from non payments. Always talk to your bank and make an offer of making a minimum payments rather than paying nothing. That way they can't claim you defaulted on your home loan. It's vital to have your home paid off by retirement. It makes your life so much easier and more secure.
Sweetie there's always adoption if you guys decide that is best for your family in the future . Plenty of children that need so much love and I know you can give it . If you decide to do so.
Please don't let anyone give pepper any chocolate as it destroys a dog's liver. Also no food with onion or garlic. Just thought you should know, the vet will tell you if you ask..cheers
Have you seen “Somers in Alaska”? I only mention them because as people of faith you never know what the Lord has planned for your lives. Whatever it is it will be special look at your lives since your journey to be parents began. Some extremely heartbreaking moments (Brynn) , Emma , TWINS and then Faye. Our God is AMAZING and I think his plans for you are amazing too!! Your family is in my prayers!
Was just messaging with my almost 8 months pregnant daughter how unborn and newborn babies get more active at night when it is dark and quiet and there is not the movement going on
I cannot cope with you being done w kids. Your pregnancies and births and everything are my favorite . If I somehow had a say you’d have 5 more 😆😆 love your babies so much.
@J C nor is your's... just saying. Why did this bother you bad enough that you needed to comment this to them? I'm sure it's exciting to catch a video as soon as it's posted and be the 1st one to comment. I'm replying to your comment bc it bothered me that someone being nasty to someone for a simple comment that doesn't harm anyone, including you. Your's however, is hurtful! Just sayin....
Personally, for the safety of your heart, I would wait on that appointment. There’s a reason you feel this way. We support you no matter what… my pastor showed my husband and I this verse after our miscarriage. I was devastated. I questioned having more children. The pastor grabbed his Bible and flipped to this verse. Children are a blessing. Put your full trust into him alone. Not worldly issues such as living space, the bank, or age. Again, we support you 100%. Just wanted to throw a different opinion in there. You’re wonderful parents. Genesis 1:28 “And God blessed them. And God said to them, 'Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth. '”
Rachelle and Justin you guys are amazing parents and I just love you guys 💓

What happened to Beau?
Crazy that I was just thinking this today also (realizing I’m a couple weeks behind on videos)
All the things you are saying about wanting to be able to meet all their needs physically and emotionally is super important for me too! That’s what I want to be able to do for my future children!😊🥰

Rachelle as soon as I see you have a pst up I Smile.
Lincoln logs are the best. I’m 71 and loved playing with mine back in the dark ages. 🤣😂
always so happy to get this notification!!! sending love from Alabama 😍🤍
You are doing an excellent job, Mommy and each child is so precious!
We played with Lincoln Logs as a kid and I am 72. My husband did that after our 3rd one, there are great things ahead with the kids and it is so nice when they can all get in the car and buckle up themselves. Then to be done with diapers.
What happens to your frozen embryos? Can you explain whether they will be adopted? You have a lovely family!!!!😊😊
She’s talked about this a lot. She’s not ready to make any decisions regarding the embryos right now :)
I would love it if you had one more. I think deep down you want one more. You can always use your embryos though if that is the case! Love your family!!😍😍😍

My family home had a cabinet like that in the hall. We all played it and our children did too.
I was offered to tie my tubes after my fourth I’m so done with having babies but I’m only 27 and even though I 1000% don’t want anymore babys I couldn’t do it it just felt like to big of a decision to make at 27. 😩
Just think, it's not completely over. One day you will have grandbabies 🙂 too...!!!
Love your family. God bless always 🙏🙏❤️❤️
I totally totally get it. My csection is in two days and I’m so sad. I’ll be getting a tubal done. This is our 3rd baby here on earth and I just know my body can’t do this again. Plus I’m 34 and tired. Lol. But I’m so sad this season is going to be over. It’s bittersweet.

My 2md daughter did exactly the same made a room out of the bottom shelf of our pantry
Wait. I JUST changed my mind and my youngest is almost 2. I thought I was 100% sure even 4 months ago we were done.
Adoption could be in the picture ❤️
Pepper looks a lot like beau
Rachelle honey, I don't know but it looks like you have a pretty full life. LOL. I wish you all the best and that everything will turn out the way it should. Love y'all.
POST MORE ABOUT THE PETS

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Could you please share which baby carrier model you are using?
❤
❤
You have a even number and 2 of each which is perfect
You could always adopt later on.

Rachelle do you still have frozen embryos
Yes, they have quite a few
:)
If you're sad about the vasectomy don't do it..chances are you won't get pregnant and if you do it's meant.
Hello, Faye!
She's little
Do 5 maybe would be good to 4 and 5 would be mine
First
@J C Is it really necessary for you to be annoyed by this? Not sure what harm this causes anyone.
I hope your day got better.
@J C once again, here you are shaming someone for this...
Is it really necessary to claim you are first? This isn’t a contest you know.
I would not do it if I were you.
