yeah good morning everyone happy one day
how was your weekend that's what I want
to know our this was pretty good the
girls had gymnastics Saturday we're down
to Tyler and Jude going to gymnastic the
other girls have a little lost interest
that's fine for now but used to are just
too young Patty's our thing but then
Adeline had a friend come over we got
into some of mommy's birthday chocolate
which had gluten in it so Addie ended up
with a tummy ache
Everly got some and she actually ended
up getting a fever she's had a fever for
the past two days did you eat chocolate
what did you eat mommy chocolate did you
get a bad tummy ache no we talked about
it we talked about it we talked about
it's not okay to take things that aren't
yours we talked about it's not okay to
take food upstairs anyway said that was
our night last night epps up in the bed
with John and I she ended up throwing up
on him this morning like what was it was
on like 5:00 a.m. like steak Sam
thankfully it was just the water but
your body it's still working to recover
from that if you guys are new to our
family we have one daughter with
confirmed celiac disease you suspect
that a few of our other girls also have
it so if you're not familiar with celiac
disease what that means is that they
cannot have gluten anything with gluten
in it wheat barley rye we have to look
for hidden ingredients with celiac
disease it's not just like a sensitivity
and they should just avoid eating it it
is very dangerous it causes their body
to actually attack itself and attack the
small intestine so anytime they ingest
wouldn't even if it's just like they
touched a piece of red and then ate
their food that didn't have gluten like
that little bit of cross contact
contamination will make them sick and
then their body attacks their small
intestine causes damage to it makes some
colace Jake so that is why we are a
gluten-free family but for my birthday
Tyler picked me out a couple chocolate
bars that I had gluten in them I had
them in my room but the kids snuck in
there easily so anyway that's where we
are now recovering slowly everybody else
is doing well they're all actually in
the living room right now coloring
working on art projects let me just show
you guys what we got married is working
on snap did your favorite I was also
super artistic at the kid and all
throughout school like my senior year of
high school I got three different art
classes it just kind of went to my
family like my mom my uncle
lots of arts lots of arts going on I
have to go put some marks on the wall
for a special project in her house
Danielle's in here measuring for pantry
shelving I'm trying to figure out
exactly how far apart I want them my
friend's husband is going to install
them he already got the mrs. supplies
and like cut everything I just want to
figure out much space I want between
each Rock it's hard you know print up
actual shelves so I pulled up in your
life there that's perfect
let's have never done this before plus I
don't really
[Music]
the professional has arrived everybody
this is Chris Chris is Becca's husband
if you are familiar with Becca but Chris
is like fun then Becca so we gotta got
better end of the deal on this one today
locator is no no what I'm gonna do I'm
not involved in any of the
decision-making around here so he's
gonna hang out and I'm like I'm doing
something
[Music]
mm okay so the first decision was this
how far apart the shelves would be and
where they would start we have our water
shut-off valves in there on one side so
we went above that and kind of left room
for people towels and things the other
side we started a little bit lower the
bottom has 16 inches to the first shelf
and then 14 inches and then it'll be 12
inches between each shelf going up to
the top with a lot of space up there for
storing again Buffy Earth so all of the
braces and things are in this is what
we're gonna do on this side this longer
wall here we are doing deeper shelves
they're gonna be 12 inches deep so I
have some like wider baskets and then
for this wall a little bit more narrow
that way there's still space to put like
bigger things on the bottom a step stool
if I need it a broom whatever that way
we have just a little bit more like
walking room in there then if they had
both been 12 inches so that's the plan
guys look what we have here Carol Marie
wrote her own children's book the
adventures here's the meet the author
guys this has been in the works for like
over a year now longer
for years she's had the idea but like
actually putting the book together
finishing writing and like and all of
our kids names are it's a work cited
luggage when it goes down that she works
back because for years I would see kids
just kind of going and bring Larry to
life happy boy mom I'm proud of ya yeah
it's on Amazon Larry what the Adventures
of Larry like it we'll put the link in
our description you can get it on Amazon
and support brands here to visit with a
new book it's the adventures of Larry
love it
[Music]
it is a good love look it's cute and
actually informational so we have a kid
going on plane soon or y'all while your
father's gone on trip
get the book perfect thank you sir
others this is about how much pantry
space we have in our other house I don't
think we'll need it I think that's
perfect do you think you like it don't
pull it out if it's just a blonde here I
thought everybody gets a booger or
something like that
thanks babe no you've ripped my freaking
mustache no no never mind
oh so he's like oh sorry about that but
there is well just leave me alone
there's
don't pull necessary works you're being
very nice to my face right now that's
not good oh you guys were tired we have
been enjoy so we're waiting for the
clock and everything to set really well
clean them and then we need to paint
them just a fresh coat of paint over
everything yeah and we can finally put
our stuff on very exciting because we
did just have a big pile of all of our
pantry items on the floor in there so
it'll be nice to shelves to put it long
we just got all the kids in bed F is
still not sleeping but she slept a lot
of today and a lot of yesterday cuz she
was not feeling good
yes 901 now she didn't get tested
because she was too young to be tested
for celiac disease but she had I told
you guys gotten to gluten yesterday
no no day before yesterday the day
before and then hours later got a fever
and had a fever for two days
stomach ache she threw up this morning
early and then she heard me her diapers
have been like just like back when Elena
before we quit gluten for her when she
was a baby so I think that we're pretty
sure without being you know without
having the testing pretty sure that she
also has celiac yeah which is not
surprising because it is genetic runs
and families so it wouldn't be
surprising for even more the girls to
have the gene and haven't develop it
anyway
so well thanks to Chris for doing the
show letting us borrow your husband for
so long yeah me too a great job now the
reason that we didn't have pantry shelf
you guys are probably like did not come
with shelves the standard is the
ventilated like metal you know coated
metal like with the hall the holes that
kind of shelving and we really wanted
wood shelves but they wanted like almost
$900 to put wood shells in there which
we knew like if the supplies were less
than $200 so yeah we knew it was
something that would be more affordable
to do ourselves afterwards that is why
their house didn't have shelves in a
pantry it could have we just knew we
wanted wooden ones and so we just opted
to not put the ventilator
at all right we can do it we have a lot
to do we want to get we're planning to
have sod and fencing done soon for a
backyard frigerator yeah we need some
rugs we need some furniture upstairs so
what you do but I have been taking my
time with the decisions because I feel
like if there's one thing I hate its
spending money on something and then
like not liking it
so I don't want to pick out couches and
then be like oh I wish I would have just
like looked a little bit more and felt
you know right or like for example our
last home we filled with furniture just
to get front we were like oh we need
this we need this and we just bought the
stuff yeah stuff we'd liked but this
time I really want to go through and be
like look on Pinterest and get ideas for
like I want this room to look a certain
way and like have a style you know and
buy things that fit that style instead
of just filling it with furniture I will
not be intentional and get things that
like fit us that we're gonna like for a
you know Federation we've ordered
couches yeah you know what like someone
I know what chairs they want the dining
room is soon as the couches come in
that'll be good it's like bit by bit
we're making do with what we don't have
right now
well we're tired yeah it was I was up
with cuz she was sick last night and you
were up the night before with Mary so
we're kind of still like trying to
recover so I've got a big school week
ahead of us I had the girls up school
tomorrow and we should probably talk
about that one yeah yeah we got stuff to
do so we love you guys
