I seriously get sucked into Youtube. It’s… addicting. I call it the Youtube Black Hole. You stumble on one video and the next thing you know it’s an hour later and you’ve watched everything from celebrity interviews, puppies finding their reflections in the mirror, and movie trailers. (Movie trailers are the biggest black hole…)
The worst though? When you find a video that you have to watch fourteen times in a row and show all your friends and then watch it again. Like that one video where the girl twerks and falls over… must have watched that for an hour.
I also give everyone who Youtubes regular so much credit. I love posting videos, but filming and editing takes so much time and I get beyond frustrated having to hear myself say the same thing over and over again. (I hate my voice… anyone else?)
Recently, I’ve been subscribing to Youtube channels. I’m hooked. Some of my favorites:
Sarah is the cutest… definitely have a little girl crush on her. I really think she’s so funny and you really feel like you totally know her in real life.
I’ve loved them for a really, really long time… and they just keep getting better. Makes me want to get Stacy to join a band with me (and clone us a few extra sisters all in the name of harmony).
It is so easy to get sucked into the "Youtube black hole"! I'm just glad you've given it a name! Hahaha I've loved Cimorelli for a long time. Those harmonies? Aca-mazing! I'll definitely have to check out your other recommendations. I know what I'll be doing this weekend… Thanks for the suggestions!
Hahaha I just posted about my favourite preppy youtubers this week! I'm totally obsessed, I can spend hours at a time on that site! xo Amy | amyvnorris.com
The worst is when you're subscribed to a bunch of youtubers and then you miss a day, or daily vloggers. I'm about 2 months behind on the sacconne-joly's and I just can't catch up!
Love your picks, I've never heard of a few so I will def check them out. I'm a little obsessed with the Ellen YouTube channel especially when she has Sophia Grace and Rosie on. -Alex http://www.monstermisa.blogspot.com/
YouTube is 100% a black hole! Oh..and I hate my voice too. I think it's just in our own head..my friends always said I had the perfect voice for radio?? haha but back to the YouTube vortex. I usually spend hours watching cute cats and dogs. I can't help it!
I have been calling myself a Chill Mom™️ since having Jack and now I’m realizing that I’m even chiller with Rory. (Like is birth order really less about sibling order and more about the version of mom you’re born to?) I’ve been just rolling with Rory’s infancy and I’m so much happier. Maybe it’s just that I’m more tired with a toddler too, or know that it’s going to go by so fast, or just have more confidence… probably a combination. I feel less obsessive and less stressed out by the details. I’m “making it” without having to fake it. As an example, today I noticed I hadn’t tracked a single nap- just watching sleepy cues and trying to get to a “good enough” pattern as Rory’s naps consolidate. Is he following a ~perfect~ nap schedule? No. Are we thriving? Frankly, yes!
(If you want to read my original Chill Mom post, comment “chill mom” and l’ll send it to you via DM!)
We came, we saw elephants, we ate ice cream 🐘🦒🦓 @ashleybrooke and I always talk about how we became FAST friends. Somehow we have been right there with each other during some of life’s worst moments… so it’s extra sweet that we now get to celebrate the good ones! Watching our boys play together, a little baby in a stroller, and another baby on the way… it’s everything we dreamed of.
Somehow yesterday felt like a week, last month was last year, and last year was a decade ago… but then time is simultaneously going by so fast too. The past ten weeks have gone by in a blink! Everyone warns you it goes by fast and they’re not wrong…. The days are long but oh how I wish time would slow down a bit? Or that maybe I could bottle up a tiny bit of these precious boys at every stage so I could revisit them down the road 🤍
I have grown to LOVE baby wearing. Not only do I think it’s such a nice and cozy way to bond with baby, it’s also incredibly practical, especially when you have a toddler to keep up with too! The @wildbird aerial carrier was a treat for myself- and I’m so obsessed with it. 👶🏼 Leave a comment “wildbird” and I’ll DM you the color I have as well as my personal review of it (including some troubleshooting tips).
Some top level things I like; - it’s easy to put on! - it’s so, so comfortable (for me AND baby!) - the little flap is seamless and provides extra support while baby naps and privacy when we need/want it
This affordable rechargeable LED lamp is cute and then made even cuter with this wicker lampshade! 💡✨ No cords needed- just charge and place wherever you want. (Will be extra perfect for dining outdoors this summer!) 💫 Comment “lamp” and I’ll send you links to the LED lamp ($38 for a pair!) and the lampshade (available in a few styles- including a darling blue).
Not really in the mood to be in photos right now, but I keep telling myself I’ll want to look back on these moments and remember them. (Right?!) when I look at these photos in 10, 20, 30 years…
I hope I remember Jack “rescuing” Rory from a windy tent, not how I stood in front of my closet with tears in my eyes.
I hope I remember watching Jack roll down hills and play hop scotch and scoot down the sidewalk with his besties, not that I caught a glimpse of my reflection and didn’t recognize myself.
I hope I remember sitting outside with my friend happily watching our kids play (while watching the minutes until bedtime tick by), and not that I spent too much time zooming in and examining every new wrinkle on my face.
I hope I remember the pure joy of these early warm days with my little family whom I love so much 🤍
The weather is warming up and I’m feeling slightly more comfortable in my skin every day ☀️ Here’s what I wore last week as a mom of two. I have a two and a half year old toddler and a two month old so I need outfits I feel good in, can chase a little guy around in, AND that I can breastfeed easily while wearing. 🔗 Leave a comment with “OUTFITS” to get links to every outfit I wore!
hahaha, i love how you call it: "the youtube black hole" hahaha totally agree…. i don't watch tv at all … youtube is my television 🙂

You have to watch Lisa Eldridge — her beauty videos are amazing, and her voice is so soothing! It sounds weird, but you can't help but love it!
I love Cimorelli!! They are so talented! Have you ever checked out Improv Everywhere? https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTrtA2LyW7gie0o8hY4efXw
Their stuff is hilarious and people's reactions are priceless.
