I just saw a tiktok that was like " Life is better when you have a show to go home to." Y'all have been my show this month, lol. So sweet of you to make the gift for your friend! I know they loved it!

I was sad seeing your vacation end. Loved watching your time at the beach. Gosh, I remember when it was just you and Alvin going and now to see Alice. We look forward to these vlogs every year. my husband was born and raised in Charlotte North Carolina. He grew up in Kill Devil Hills. All of his family is in North Carolina and South Carolina. I am a California native, but if we could go back and do it all over again, I would’ve loved raising our children in North Carolina. So It bought back a lot of memories for him.

I was starting to get excited knowing you would have vlogs coming up with some keto inspiration and then remembered you’re only doing daily vlogs through June and got sad 😩
I have really enjoyed these vlogs this year and love seeing how your little family has grown. I have absolutely loved watching you and Alvin be parents❤

[evastyles]

Love your videos! Lived for them this month!!! Where is your wooden salad bowl from?

[pegmiller]

Sorry to see your vaca end….. truly enjoyed watching your time at the beach. 🏖️ I think Alvin enjoyed his time off from work and being with his 2 girls 😊. Your gift sounds amazing for your friend. How long does your dense bean salad stay good in the fridge, I am still trying to get the correct amounts of the ingredients it looks so yummy

Awe! You're so thoughtful, wish you were my neighbor.

Jacqui can you link or post the recipe for those lactation energy balls, id love to make myself a batch.

Just a general question I’ve noticed Alice has a cup in her crib with her, which one is it that doesn’t spill? Sorry I’ve asked you for cup links before just desperately trying to find a cup my daughter will like
