day in my life vlog | navigating mom life, gym & errands | arnellarmon

🎵 Good morning! Oh, you like that? So, what are we wearing today? Do you want to help choose? Or do you want Mommy to pick? Okay, I'll pick your outfit. 🎵 The pink one, yes. That's the shirt we're going to wear. 🎵 Hands are not for painting. Do you want to read it? Okay. Hands are not for... Yeah. Hands come in all shapes, colors, and sizes. Hands can do a lot of things. Can you wave yours? Wave your hands, Nana. Both hands. Wave your hands. Oh, yeah. Hands are not for... Painting. What are your hands for? Painting. What are your hands for? Noah, show me. Do you want to shake my hand? What else can you do with your hands? What else can you do? You can shake them. You can wave hello. Say hello. Hello. You can... Draw. Hands are for drawing. They're for playing. You can do the itsy bitsy spider. Yellow. 🎵 Can you go to the beach and build? Do you want to go to the beach? Yeah. I'm a human. I love you. Hands are not for humans. What are they doing? What are they doing Noah? I'm drinking milk. Yes, you're drinking milk. And you're eating food. You can't use your hands to do that. I love you. Mommy's listening. I love you. Mom. Let's go brush your teeth, oh you have to wash the baby, you're so smart, come on let's put the bed back, let's go brush our teeth, good morning guys, Noah insists that we stay upstairs if he's petting Cuddy, Cuddy's trying to eat his food Noah, let him eat his food, no not before you eat something, we gotta go eat your yogurt, no, I definitely went to wake up a little earlier but I feel like my sleep is going off, it was really hard I guess navigating through my morning routine because the wifi is down, you guys the area I live in the only allow is to use spectrum and when spectrum's down there's no other option so I couldn't even see Noah on his camera to see is he awake, is he still sleeping, I just got him up, what did you just say, what's my name, what, come here, come here, wait what's my name, what's my name, you correct yourself but what's my name, what's mommy's name, you just said it, what's your name, Noah, I've been struggling with vlogging because I have not managed to have a routine or a schedule in now 3 months, what do you need help with, communicate, use your words, ok let me see, may you bring the remote to mommy, I can't even set my phone on, let me see, huh, I'm not using your batteries papa, thank you but as I was saying I have not been able to create a schedule or some type of and I could definitely benefit from talking to someone and just an outlet which brings me to today's sponsor which is BetterHelp, you guys have heard me talk about BetterHelp so many times so I won't drag this out although it's hard not to drag it out anytime I'm talking about BetterHelp or just therapy or counseling in general because I feel like it's so, mommy, yeah, wow, hmm, say that again, anyways it's hard for me not to go on a tangent whenever I'm talking about therapy or just counseling because I feel like it's so important especially when you're going through a transition in life which I feel like I've been going through multiple transitions all at once and so that's why I'm excited to be with BetterHelp again I have personally used them myself where I've spent my own money and I've also paid for other therapists and I feel like, I don't feel, I know for a fact that they're the most affordable option, I have paid a therapist $150 per session, I have paid another therapist $225 per session, so if you go to the weekly which I do, you do the math, that adds up with BetterHelp I was paying less than $400 a month for 4 sessions a month so that means that each session is basically less than $100 per session which I think is an amazing deal because if you've ever looked into your own therapist you know, I feel like the general cost is, without insurance is about $150 per session and even with some insurances you still have to pay, you still have to pay a decent amount and so I like BetterHelp for that option. I also like that they find a therapist for you so you take a quiz when you first sign up and based on your responses they pair you with the therapist they think is best and if you try it out and you decide they're actually not what you're looking for they make it so easy to switch them out and try someone new. If you've been a therapist before you know it's a process finding someone that you connect with, that you want to speak with long term. I personally have had therapists that I've loved. I've had 2 therapists that I did not like at all and so it's all trial and error but I definitely think that no matter what you're going through, speaking to someone is so crucial to someone. And so I'll have my discount code on the screen as well as in my description box down below for you guys so that way you can save your money when you first sign up. I would love to rant right now and let you guys know everything I've been going through, but I didn't want to trauma them. But if you want to know my experience. Do you need help? Because I can grab it for you. What do you need? Okay. If you want to talk about the terrible twos let me know. Here's what we're going to do. If you want a new toy, we need to put these other toys back up. Maybe grab your other toys and put them back in the basket so we don't get a mess. Put them in the basket. The basketball and the drill. Great job, Smoochie. No, let's put this back. Thank you. Do you want to get your hat? Oh, thank you. Okay, that's a workout ball. Wow, great job, Papa. Great job. Wow, great job. Do you actually want to go downstairs so we can eat our breakfast? Let's go downstairs. If you have toys downstairs as well, Nala, let's go. Come on. I actually want to show you guys his new area. I changed it probably a couple days ago. Here you go. So I changed his area. It used to be like a dark blue thing. I feel like because at our last house we had an entire playroom and we had a lot of things, I didn't want to just get rid of it, so I made it work here. What's wrong? Talk to me. Use your words. I'm going to put it on Dory, but the TV's loading a bit slow. Oh. No Wi-Fi. We don't have any Wi-Fi, Papa. So we have to wait, okay? Okay. We have other things. I can read you Brown Bear. Do you want me to read you Brown Bear? Take a seat. Um, it looks really short. I changed the thing. It's like brown and neutral. It's not too beige, but it's better. Brown Bear, Brown Bear. I see a red bird. Look at me. Yes. Red bird, red bird. What do you see? I see a yellow duck looking at me. Yellow duck, yellow duck. What do you see? I see a blue horse looking at me. Blue horse, blue horse. What do you see? I see a green frog looking at me. A green frog looking at me. Teacher, teacher, what do you see? I see children looking at me. Children, children, what do you see? We see a brown bear, a brown duck, a brown duck, a brown horse, a green frog, a purple Do you want Mommy to buy the Panda Bear? Do you want the Panda Bear book? I'll buy the book for you. Should I buy Polar Bear as well? I'll buy both. Do you want both books? He We were at home when we came to buy that book and literally he started saying brown bear. I bought it and gave the first copy to his dad so he has a book in his place and I bought another one. But we don't have those books, Papa. We only have brown bear. So Noah has the biggest bruise on his face right now and it pains me to see it because he liked these chairs so much that the first day we got them he ran over to it and he was like it was going to be hit by the wall. They've been moved since. But he ran to it to jump on it and then absolutely couldn't stop himself and ran to the wall. Just hey, what do you do when you're done? What do you do with it? Play with Daddy. What do you do with that? Where does that go? In the trash. Yeah, you take it to the trash. No. May he go throw it away? Oh, are you okay? Great job. Thank you. Grab the spider. Can you reach him? There you go. I believe the remote's in there. The remote is over here, Papa, in the basket. I was going to say I just oppose him. Boys are extremely rough. That's not to say you can't control what you get pregnant with when you get pregnant, but I will say that everyone says boys are easier. I think that's a lie. They're not. They're so rough. They have so much more energy to cause. Spider on my knees? Mommy doesn't want the spider on her knees. Why did you put it on my knees? By the way, I almost forgot about this spider. Why? I don't know. It was for his birthday. He used to be terrified of it and now he loves playing with it. Here, you're going to hurt your finger if you do that. So hey, let the button go. When you're holding it in your hand, you don't press the button. No, you don't press the button because you'll hurt your finger doing that. Okay? How does that even happen? Oh. Oh, maybe it will hurt your finger. So put the spider on the ground. That's where he belongs. On this floor, actually. He'll crawl better on the floor. Yeah. Oh, I got better too, by the way, you guys. I still have to order the chairs. I still need to color. I think you need new batteries too. Guys, I'm going to get over my fear of vlogging in public and we're starting Erewhon. No kidding. I've vlogged here before. But I finished my workout. I didn't record the whole thing because oh my god. You guys, I've dropped this camera too many times to where I feel like I messed up the gimbal. It doesn't focus the same as it used to. But yeah, I just didn't have enough battery to record my entire workout because I have to vlog after. OMG, please. We're in that transition where they're going to leave for breakfast and lunch, but I'm hoping to He better not get all on me, please. Guys, I wanted to get Jojo's protein skillet and this man literally just got the last of it. This crazy piece of ----. That was crazy to witness. I can't even. I've got to practice that. Hold on, I'm actually really pissed off. I'm so angry. Like, I was really craving the protein skillet. In theory, I need to figure out how to cook it myself. It doesn't look hard. It's literally just turkey, eggs, spinach, and I think onion. I'm just lazy. Let me get my car. That was quite a traumatic experience for me. Okay, let's try this quesadilla and see if it's good. It's $27. Erewhon would be good though. Yeah, it's overpriced, but this is edible. Mmm, these are good. I knew it would be good because I've had their breakfast burrito before. I'm going to add some bacon though, because I love bacon. But I prefer to get the egg scramble because it's less calories. You know, I've been trying to be good about these kind of things. Mmm. Mmm. I was genius to add the extra bacon, you guys. What time is it? It's like 11 or 10.46. Our morning is almost over, but we have to stop at the hardware store to get some paint. We made it to the hardware store, you guys. You guys know Ace Hardware has basically everything Home Depot and Lowe's has? I didn't know that. And guess what? It's less chaotic and less scary because, I don't know, I feel like there's always pervs at Home Depot from my experience. Lowe's is chill. I had a bad experience at Lowe's once. I got the runs there. Anyways, whatever. We're looking at paint because... God, my hair looks crazy. Hold on. We're looking at paint because I am changing the theme of my room to olive green. And so we need to look at olive green paint. And you guys should know, by now, I don't paint unless it's lime wash. So we have to pick out two greens. I'm honestly really not that picky. No, I'm picky. What am I saying? But I kind of like this. The top and bottom one. Oh! Honestly, maybe even these two. It's like my bedding is slightly darker, but I don't want the walls that dark because then the room won't be bright and I won't like that. Or, or I could do even lighter. Like maybe these two colors. Mmm. Yeah, oof. My boyfriend's supposed to meet me here. I'm gonna be dumb by the time he gets here. He stopped at Cava across the street. We went to separate gyms today. Because sometimes I just like going to my gym, you know, just around the girls. But we were talking and we were saying that we could like, or I could alternate with him. Go to my gym, you know, just alternate. I don't know. I'm kind of like feeling these colors, guys. Mmm. I just, the thing I don't like about me is that how fast I have to do things. Like, I'll think of something and decide, oh, I gotta get this done today. But I don't have time to paint today, but knowing me, I might try to paint today. Mmm. I kind of like this color too. Let's see. Because it's a little more muted. You got your food? Yeah. You didn't eat those? No, it's in the car. What do you think? Is it, I'll just pick this one up. Yeah, $4.82. Well, I'm gonna get both of them and do a line wash. Oh. But I was thinking this because it's a little more, just the word I'm thinking. Not so green, like it's green, but it's not, it's more neutral, maybe? Mmm. Okay, cool. I'm gonna send the car, you guys, because they have the AC blast and it's cold and it's not enjoyable for me. My boyfriend's gonna get everything. I'm actually gonna be on my phone for a little bit because I do not know if the Wi-Fi is on at home. Wait for mommy. I got back home, you guys. I need to wash my hair. It looks kind of oily. Hmm. I want Noah to try this baby hair. Okay, you ready? I want this. Okay. I think you will like this. And it's soft. Oh. The bruise, my baby. What do you think? Is it good? You like it? For six pieces of bacon, it was $15. I just thought about how crazy that is, actually. Yeah. But this is Irrawon bacon. You wanna try it? You want another piece? Do you like it? Noah, it's a little different. Give me a piece. Here. Give this to, give this to mommy. Why are you so nice? That's some prime piggy. Sorry. That's good bacon. Noah wants some more. You want some more, papa? You make it just as good. No. Here, here, here. Let mommy get it for you. Here you go. You wanna feed your friends? Okay, give them a piece. Give Elmo a piece. Well, nice. He likes it. What about the bear? Yeah. He likes it. Are you gonna give it to mommy? Thanks. I still can't say my name. You know, I got it on camera. You have it on camera? Yeah. He wants mommy's quesadilla. Okay, you want more bacon? I'm about to make you some chicken nuggets. Well, it is your lunchtime. Here. You don't have to stuff your face with it, but just eat a little piece. Take a bite. Yeah, like that. We gotta ice his face. I can't believe he did this. My baby. I know, but this just looks so bad. Are you okay? Noah, are you okay? You okay? You done with your bacon? No. You want another piece? Well, how do you ask? Not bacon. Okay, you're gonna get one little piece, and then we're all done, okay? This is your last piece, so savor it. You wanna make coffee with mommy? You wanna make some coffee? Don't flip. Yeah, Noah, go put the cars away. Come on. Clean up. Okay, you're gonna make the coffee, okay? So, here's what we do. We need creamer. Can you say creamer? Creamer. Yes. Can you say vanilla? It's vanilla. Say vanilla. Vanilla. Look at mommy's lips. V. V. Vanilla. Vanilla. Okay, so look it. We're gonna put this in here. Like that. Wanna hold it? Hold it. For mommy. Yeah, see? No, no, no, no. Wait for mommy. Are you ready? I need you to pour this in here. Pour it in there, papa. Wow. Thank you so much. Now put it down. Don't drop it. It's glass. Yes, put it down. Thank you so much. So, wait. Hold on. We need a straw. Don't touch it. Let's get a straw. Hold on. Wait for mommy. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No. Well, no. Actually, this is how it's supposed to be. Mommy, try this. Okay? Yum. No, you're only two. You can't have coffee. Not yet, okay? But thank you for making it for me. Thank you. You want your own? Here, here, here. I got an idea. You can't have mommy's coffee, but we can have your own. Oh, coffee. Coffee. Now, wait. Is that some water? Are you gonna mix it? Whoa, no, huh? Let mommy get you a straw. Mommy? I'm right here. Thank you. Here, try it. Wow, you have your coffee. Mmm. Yummy. It's yummy? It's not going anywhere. You don't want to rush and drink it. You don't want too much coffee. I love how he made my coffee with his own. It's tart cherry juice. Mix it with water. All done. I want more coffee. You want more coffee? No, that's all we can have. You can have too much caffeine in a day. Come on. Put your feet on the ground. Come on, Gooey. Stand up. You're too heavy to do this. Yeah, come to me. He's gonna pick He's coming. He's coming. I just got out of the shower. I just wanted to show you guys my tattoos because I got them laser two days ago. Oh, was that yesterday? Hmm. I thought I said yes two days ago. You guys, I kind of went overboard. I learned my pain tolerance and I just have to tell you. So you guys know, I've been getting some tattoos removed for the movie, right? And I paid for my own package. I paid $3,500 for like, I got it during Black Friday. So I got this in the package, this in the package. I got some pretty big things in my package, which unless you've ever looked into laser tattoo removal, you understand just how affordable that is for these tattoos, especially. And I have other tattoos in the package as well. But the fact that I got these for $35 for unlimited, basically until there's no more detectable ink, that's insane. So I wanted to remove more. I had to remove Rick. Long story short, I'll be working with him, which is so exciting because I love him. But my last appointment, I'd already had that book for these that I already paid for. But because I'm going to be working with him, I was able to get even more treated. So I went crazy. I'm like, oh yeah, this one. I did nine tattoos, you guys. And that was the most intense session I've had so far. But this, it's doing so good, you guys. It looks veined up still because with each session, they increase the settings, but it's doing so good. I got this one done. I got this one. I look bruised. That's happened before. Don't be alarmed. But this, I probably need three or four more sessions on this. Let's go. Say goodbye. I got this one. I got that god awful butterfly on my neck, which is responding so well, you guys. Oh my gosh. I probably need five more sessions, which is not a lot if you know about laser tattoo removal. I got this. I got this. I got this one on my thigh. What else did I get? The heart. I got, I did a lot and I'm just excited. But anyways, we'll talk about that another time. I'm going to get dressed. Although this was supposed to be a morning vlog, I'm going to take y'all with me to HomeGoods. I am kind of going crazy in the house because the Wi-Fi is still off. It has now been off since last night at like 12 because I've been working on it. It's really annoying because I can't even communicate with the outside world. So I'm going to leave the house and why not go to HomeGoods to feel awesome. So let me get dressed and then we'll go. You guys, I decided to come to Office Depot instead because I thought this was the more responsible thing to do because I actually don't need anything at HomeGoods. I don't know how my headphones are so loud in here. This music is like, I'm at a HomeGoods. This is crazy. I just don't know what I need there. I don't know what I need here, actually. You know, I'm naive I didn't cut this out of the vlog because this is literally just my life. I don't think you guys understand how often I do this where I kind of just impulsively want to get out of the house. I mean, okay, in my defense, why is my camera, why does this one focus on me? I'm so tired of this. In my defense, if we have Wi-Fi, I would be home. I literally just, I needed to send an email. So like that's my excuse. There's been many times where I've gone to a store and I got there. I'm just like, why am I here? It's like I do, I don't want to say I need, I want some things, some HomeGoods because I'm slowly starting to decorate for fall. But I don't need that today, huh? I don't think so. You guys, I'm in this vlog. I'm actually tired. I'm kind of debating on going to get more coffee. How far is a coffee place? Because that coffee I made earlier did not hit me. I'm only five minutes away. Okay, let's go get coffee and then I'm done. I'm gonna let you guys go. Just give me like five more minutes. Oh my gosh, please. They started playing Miguel, y'all. If I stayed there any longer, I would have made no money. But I got my coffee. I like coming here because you can control how much sugar is in your coffee, which there's so much sugar in coffee that I really try to limit that. And so with the sea salt caramel coffee, I get a fourth of the sugar. Because one time I asked them how much sugar is in one cup of coffee, it was 25 grams, which is the amount that we're supposed to have in a day. And look at I know the creamer I used at home. Oh, and I had orange juice. I'm probably already past limit a little bit, but it's better than being 10 times past the limit, which definitely used to be me. So anyways, we're actually going to HomeGoods. I'll explain why when we get there. That's right. I'm not at HomeGoods. I decided to go to Walmart instead. Because I think what I need is at Walmart, I need some bins to organize. And I was thinking about it. And while they have it at HomeGoods, I just feel like I have a better chance of getting exactly what I want here. So we're going here. So I don't regret it. I got my headphones in though, because I kind of get overstimulated in places like this, where it's just a lot of sound. Fun fact, that's always what I have my headphones in. You guys I got so many bins. But although I actually don't really know what I'm going to put in each bin, well, the big bins, I'm going to put my purse in there. Because I've been my office space or my studio filming space. That's what I'm really organizing today. But I got some bins for the purse and some bins for like the hats and accessories. Some bins for my nail supplies. I'm tired of the bins currently in. And yeah, I think I've got enough. So I'm going to head home now. I made it home, you guys. We're just bringing these upstairs. You got most of it. Perfect timing, because someone's away from their nap. I can't step over my, I don't think my legs are long enough. You can pass through them. These are shoes for Noah. Alright guys, I'm in the vlog here. Thanks for spending the morning and a half a day with me. And so you guys will. Do you mind grabbing him? I'm going to change his shirt, it's too hot. I'm going to do a separate vlog from our organization. He's literally He's screaming for no reason. Oh my gosh. He's supposed to be napping. Why are you screaming? You're supposed to be napping. That's my cue. I got to change his top though. It's actually really hot. Even though it looks gloomy outside. But yeah, I'll see you guys in my next vlog. I'm going to be doing a vlog of me organizing my studio space. So stay tuned for that. And I'll just, yeah, see you guys later.
