The Truth About Van Life with Baby - Mexico Edition

In episode 204, we share what it's like to live in a van with a baby. We first started out when our baby boy was 4 months old and have continued to travel with him for the last 6 months. Now that he is 10 months old and a lot more mobile, van life with a baby, is starting to look a bit different. We share the good the bad and the ugly of living in a van and traveling with a baby.

Honestly, it seems a bit easier than life with a baby at home. I believe that having exposure to the outside tends to calm a baby down much more, so you guys are doing a great job!

The biggest positive to your entire video is that you all spend every moment together which is a rarity for most families. Being able to watch him grow and learn, not missing any of those special moments, is so special. What a blessing! 🙏❤️🙏

Babies aren’t super easy in a home either so for him to have these experiences of fun and beauty and laughter will be huge later on even if he doesn’t remember the exact moments. It’s the internal joy right now. Loved this video!

Having 6 kids, I learned that just when I had the schedule down, it changed again. Flexibility is definitely needed in raising kids. So many factors always changing w/ growing children. 😊

What a beautiful little life for a beautiful little family. Thank you for sharing.

[raychelmcbride]

These will be great memories to share with him when he is older. ❤

[Suud]

Seeing how busy it is for us to take care of children, our parents remember how to take care of raising us🎉🎉🎉

[bridgesadventures]

I absolutely love love that you guys are so open about everything with him. It shows just because you have a baby doesn’t mean you guys have to put your goals and dreams aside. Plus when he gets older he can have this to look back on.

[dilmca]

I can feel the exhaustion throught the screen. Kids are a constant hard work and the hard work isn't the problem so much as the consistency of it so be careful people and try and make things as easy as possible for yourselves 😊 ❤

Did this trip with baby, 6 year old and a puppy 28 years ago! There was almost zero American food in Baja at the time. Great trip but it was a super challenging, bananas and avocados saved the day!

Hello from Turkiye
Now you're better with little baby.... Wishing you a long happy life together...🎉

[brooklin_bernek]

I promise it may feel harder in the van, but exposing that precious boy to the whole world is giving him a calmness we can’t give out babies at home. Ugh you guys are such goals I can guarantee that’ travel the world, and take in all those views! Your living the good life ❤
