[jillrae2008]

We are also followers of Lora and Laci, do you know for sure that they are the 123shesucks. account, if not it isnt right to blame them. Personally I think that Laci would do that but not Lora. Im my opnion Laci is TRAILER TRASH that is making a fool out of her self and her family

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@jillrae2008 No, I don't, and I've made sure to specific that I do not. I was simply told it was her, Laci, & Tara. That Laci/Lora left messages on the comment box of the channel to make others think it was not them. As with any rumor, doesn't mean it's true. It how ever would not surprise me though. Personally I think it is, simply b/c of the things they are saying. It's the exact same thing they've both said before. As much as I dislike both, it was Lora who promotes violence & Laci agreeing.

[TXmomof20809]

@xxxjoelpolexxx Well just let it be known, it is NOT Tara! How about getting your facts RIGHT before assuming!! K, Thanks

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@TXmomof20809 At the very least Tara did how ever start the hate group. I didn't assume, I was told. I was also told it was Courtney Hall. Perhaps you might want to learn to read? Do you need a tutor? I know of a few through-out Texas if you need the #'s just LMK it wouldn't be a problem at all! Always willing to help others ;)

[TXmomof20809]

@xxxjoelpolexxx Well idk about the hate group! And reading?? I dont waste my time reading all your comments Tara was telling me cause someone said on a page that you were saying those girls started a channel and what not! Why are you so against all of them anyways??

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@TXmomof20809 The hate group is a fact, that one is not up for discussion, as their is valid hard concrete proof. As for being against them. I'm not. I'm not the one starting hate groups, fake accounts, and stalking, and mocking them. Your clearly confused.

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@TXmomof20809 For someone who wants to preach about "getting your facts RIGHT before assuming" you might want to take your own advice as you clearly do NOT know your facts and you ASSUMED what you heard was the truth. That's what happens when you listen to Tara & assume, you make an ass out of your self.

What you THINK you know about someone isn't always case....perfect situation for you to learn from your mistakes and not let the same person make a fool out of you again.

[123shesucks]

@jillrae2008 ....could it be or couldnt it be THAT IS THE QUESTION

[jillrae2008]

Being a good parent is more then buying the latest fashion clothes and taking trips. Mu husband calls you the new Kate Gosslen, in the begining her show was about their day to day life, much lik e yours. Then it turned into what and where she coudl take her kids and her looks.

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@jillrae2008 In the beginning of having kids you don't have the time to take care of your self..at least I didn't it wasn't my focus, my focus was my child/ren. It wasn't till my son was 10 months did I for one have the money, and two the time and opportunity to start doing my hair, and doing the things that was ME before having kids, making my self feel good, and doing something for ME! Every Mom should!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@jillrae2008 Also the first 6 months of my daughters life I just didn't go anywhere. I didn't know where to go, what to do w/ an infant, not to mention it was RSV season when she was born. Then when I had two kids it was just more effort than what it was worth to go places & worry about "my looks". It takes time to get into a routine and for the kids to get old enough that you can actually have time to blow dry your hair and put a little effort into my self.

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@jillrae2008 I think it's not only important for me to feel sane but it's good and healthy for our marriage as well. No man wants to marry a woman and see her have kids and let her self go....I still want to look good for my husband as I like to see him do the same for me. Before I had kids I never went more than 6 months w/ out changing my hair and just doing different things. It hasn't been until now that I can actually buy my self clothes as well! Feels nice.

[jillrae2008]

BUT both my husband and I agree that your overall self has changed A LOT since your early videos. In the begining you were this sweet, loving family girl, often seen in pjs and no make up and enjoyign days at home with your family. Now you are always dressed, make up on and seem to always make comments on how you would love to have more kids BUT you dont want to give up :the life style you have"

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@jillrae2008 We don't want to give up our lifestyle just so we could have more kids. It wouldn't be fair to the other kids to not have the same things their older siblings had. Neither of us would be happy sitting at home, indoors because we were to broke to leave the house. We want to be able to give all of our children the things we didn't have, meaning opportunities as well.

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@jillrae2008 I don't think that it's a bad thing at all...It's just a "new mom" process that the majority of Moms go through.

[jillrae2008]

Lucy, my husband and I have been watching your videos since TCC around the same tinme you were trying for Kacen. Personally I think your parenting style rocks! My mom raised us as co sleeping, breastfeeded, clothed diapered, no yelling, no spancking, and I am pretty sure my brothers are bothj intact. She let us be as independant as we needed and fit her life around us instead of molding us to fit her life. and I think we turned out pretty good lol

[MsMuppet101]

aww poor Jace! I think she rammed her stomach into that elephants head and thats why she was upset. I cant believe those lions were so vocal!!! That must have been amazing to see in real life! And cutie little Kacen smiling the whole day! He's so curious too with those birds and trying to touch them and Jacelyn laughing everytime they flew away! Your kids are so adorable!!

[BombbbProductions]

What zoo is that?

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@BombbbProductions Fort Worth

[melkingcat]

Lucy, this was a great video, looked like such a fun day!

I'm a little shocked at the nasty posts below and even more so if it is who you say it is. But then again, people who seem too good to be true usually are.

As far as I am concerned, you have two beautiful, healthy kids and I love watching your videos about them. Other than that, I don't really care where you put them to sleep or how you deal with tantrums etc. Who amongst us can say that they are "experts" at parenting?

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@melkingcat Thanks hun ;)

[melkingcat]

@xxxjoelpolexxx In every "fairytale" there is an evil witch!

[MelB0610]

I can't believe how happy Kace is most the time! cutie! Your kids are both so cute! And dressed soo adorable! i can't believe those lions were making all that noise, our lions usually just lay around sleeping all day! lol cool! That is soo cool that you guys get to pick those birds up with the sticks! lol and she keeps shaking them, haha!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@MelB0610 Thank You! It's a pretty amazing zoo :)

[skittalie]

Ultra cute as always! Your photos are always so clear, what camera do you use?

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@skittalie Thank You! It's a canon rebel t1i

[08MarineWife]

love your videos Lucy. Your kids are super cute. Wish I knew people/family like you guys in my area. You guys are great!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@08MarineWife Thank you!!!! Your so sweet :)

[tarabucci]

We love the Zoo too! She is so cute!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@tarabucci Thank You !

[candacefrandsen]

Jace is sooo smart! Those lions look fake, I got a little scared. LOL I love that Kacen isn't afraid of the birds. Those picts of Jace and Carrson are priceless. Looks like yall had a fun day : )

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@candacefrandsen Do ya'll have zoo passes too?

[SuhWeet12489]

Wwow that was awesome to see the lions growling! the lions at our zoo don't "Roar!" they're super lazy. :( . lol. Looks like both Kace & Jace enjoyed themselves! always good!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@SuhWeet12489 Haha yah well the rest of the big cats we have at our zoo are lazy! We have a TON though all across the zoo, these 2 are by far the coolest!

[cmich89]

HAHA Jacelyn feeding the birds was hilarious!!!! esp. the adorable evil laugh when the birds flew away :) lol

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@cmich89 She was having fun...

[cookiesvblog]

That looks like a fun zoo!

Looks like you guys had fun :)

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@cookiesvblog It's a great zoo!

[CandidMommy]

"you were right"

(-:

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@CandidMommy :)

[Lailagd18]

Hi, I've been watching your videos for a while now...and i have to tell you (although you hear it all the time), your kids are beautiful! I love the way you dress your daughter and her hair looks so adorable all the time. And your baby boy is just precious, he looks just like you:) You guys are great parents!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@Lailagd18 Thank You! Very sweet of you. She's a fun girl to dress.

[jewcy21]

Wow...were the lions actually real? That was really cool!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@jewcy21 haha yes! I swear... lol even at the zoo (when you can't see them) people are like is that a REAL lion sound? Then when you see them you still get the are they real? Yes 100% completely real!

[Lovesenduringpromise]

awesome video-lol when Jace laughs @ the bird flying off

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@Lovesenduringpromise Thanks :) She was having fun...

[xxmamachrisxx]

Aww looks great zoo London zoo is good over here except u got the weather

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@xxmamachrisxx It's an amazing zoo.

[elesha76]

How many kids do you think you guys will have my bet is 4 lol

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@elesha76 Haha I WISH we could afford 4...

[elesha76]

How many kids do you think you guys will have my bet is 4 lol

[elesha76]

My elephants come back lol so cute, and look at her with her dress and necklace I lovvvvveeeee my three boys but I do sometimes think maybe if I had a fourth a girl could be fun. But Id never have another baby just to try and get a girl. And kacen and that giggle is just to cute thats all he does is giggle to sweet. Can I ask how many kids you guys would like?

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@elesha76 Girls can be very fun....although I do find it to be more fun to dress him. It's easier. Shopping for her is sooooooooooo hard. Everything is all girly, like w/ glitter and looks like baby clothes. It's hard to find stuff I actually like for her. I dress her the same way I dress me. If I couldn't wear it, she's not wearing it... and they don't sell a lot of that for 2 year olds.

[elesha76]

[Yveth83]

Lucy I love your family ...Jace and Kacen are adorable !!!! U guys are great parents!!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@Yveth83 Thank you!

[Yveth83]

Lucy I love your family ...Jace and Kacen are adorable !!!! U guys are great parents!!

[lunarain19]

Two year olds...lol . Zoe is way different since she turned two. Makes me sad sometimes lol. She's not always sweet anymore. But she does go to bed on her own now and tells us when she's ready for bed so that has been amazing.

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@lunarain19 lol yep, Jace is all about, no, me, mine, stop. But like you said she goes to bed & naps when she wants on her own everyday (same time-like clock work) but its on her terms. She is 100% potty trained at home & 50% outside of the home (havent mastered $1 just #2) gives me way more time to end to Kacen or just have fun w/ her.

[beckoninglight16]

@xxxjoelpolexxx That's amazing that Jace is already potty trained! You have very smart kiddos!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@beckoninglight16 Thank you :) She's been like this since she was like 18 months.... she's 26 months and I don't know what it is, but getting #1 mastered outside of the house just isn't happening. Probably our fault.... we don't take her as often as we could I suppose, especially if it's me by my self. I can't set Kacen down anywhere to hold her over hte toilet (I don't let her sit on them) I need to buy a portable 1 to keep in the car so she can use it. I haven't figured out a good routine yet

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@jennasmommy0718 I was there...filming... scared they were going to bite me. lol

[17701326]

do you still use the baby k'tan? I'm trying to decide which carrier to buy and I've noticed you've switched to the Ergo. I only want to buy one and hopefully get to use it a long time. which do you suggest buying?

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@17701326 No way could I pick just 1! lol I get more use out of the Ergo, & even though I haven't tried it with a NB I'm positive I'd still prefer my Baby K'tan the first 4-6 months. After that though Ergo everytime from there on out.

[FaithShekinah]

Jace is so smart! You guys are doing a great job with those 2! They're so cute!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@FaithShekinah Thank U!

[TrulyBlesssed5586]

wow yall must love the zoo!! I wish we had a good zoo around here....jacelyn and kacen seem to love it!!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@TrulyBlesssed5586 Well we can only make it through a 1/4th of our zoo in one day w/ 2 kids. The kids love to hang out at any given spot for a while, and it's just HUGE FREAKING ZOO @ that... So it takes us about 3-5 trips to get through the entire zoo. We have zoo passes so we can go any time we want for free. I just love how educational it is for the kids. They truly learn sooooooooooo much every time we go. It's a great tool for ASL as well.

[rmmartin92405]

see joel its NOT a recording!!!!! told you so!!!!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@rmmartin92405 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA did u hear him apologize to me @ the end? lol

[Verdeliss]

How beautiful day!!!

Jacelyn look like a princess, she is so vain...I love her dresses and ribbons...and of course her little shoes hahaa. And Kacen...a funny t-shirt !!!

I laughed when Jacelyn frighted away the birds hahaaa

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@Verdeliss She was enjoying her self! lol

[OurlovelyIsa]

Your son looks so much like you!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@OurlovelyIsa Yep, I think so too.

[belle54031]

The redwoods in California are really cool. I went there years ago and there was a tree that you could drive through it was so big.

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@belle54031 Sounds amazing!!!!

[Aaris15]

I swear little Kacen looks exactly like you. He is so adorable :)

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@Aaris15 Thank You :)

[Aaris15]

I swear little Kacen looks exactly like you. He is so adorable :)

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@MrsMSG79 It was a fun cheap free day :)

[nakovac]

Those lions were awesome!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@nakovac Very fun to watch!

[jenNkel2008]

They are so cute! What a great experience for children! Love Jacelyn's dress... she is so normal... tantrums 'n 'all! Yet another great video.

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@jenNkel2008 Thanks! She's 2, and learning how to express her self :)

[abra819]

cracks me up the way kids squat

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@abra819 It's quite comfortable actually, lol

[abra819]

cracks me up the way kids squat

[ilovehandbags06]

OMG that would have freaked me out them lions doing that. You look so close I guess that's the zoom button. Clever Kacen walking with daddy. Mummy boy Oh you can feed them is it exspensive to feed them. I remember having so many of them birds the first time we took it home it drowned it's self I don't know if was telling us somthing lol.

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@ilovehandbags06 It was a $1 per stick to feed the birds. We bought 5, used & I gave 1 away to a little girl standing next to us that was trying to get a bird on her empty stick. We there for about 30 minutes w/ those sticks.

[ilovehandbags06]

She was so not impressed with those elephants walking away from her I laughed so hard. What do you do when she doesn't get her own way and has a tantrum is that offten? Baby wipes are brilliant for everything I use them for everything even to clean paint off floors my silly brother didn't think of putting something on the floor.

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@ilovehandbags06 It happens REALLY often! Depends on the situation, usually distraction though.

[123shesucks]

@xxxjoelpolexxx that girl needs a butt woopen!!!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@123shesucks We don't believe in violence unlike others.

[123shesucks]

@ilovehandbags06

that girl needs a butt woopen!!! she dont realize shes going to have the worst kids when they grow up- she thinks letting them sleep in bed and all that crap is a good parent, the reason there are rules and limits set is so your children grow up with that, they also dont have bedtimes or any routine.

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@123shesucks We don't believe in violence. Beating your kids create problems, not solutions. Co-Sleeping does not need limits/rules. Our children do have a routine, Thank You.

[tink22988]

@123shesucks just because lucy lets her kids sleep with her and does not hit them by no means makes her a bad parent or does it mean that Jacelyn and Kacen will grow up to be bad kids. Jacelyn's two..which means she just learning all about not getting her way, all kids go through it. The way Lucy parents has nothing to do with it, and if you honestly think that she is such bad parent why then even watch her videos??

[ilovehandbags06]

@123shesucks There her children and I think she's doing a great job. If it works for letting them sleep in or whatever let it be. Not for us to make comments on reallly. If your talking about co sleeping my nephew is 5 and he still sleeps with his mum unless my mum is there he'll sleep in his own bed with her. He is the sweetest thing and not at all bad tempered. I'm sue she does have a routine for the kids.

[123shesucks]

@ilovehandbags06

that must be why your aunt isn't married anymore , she lets her 5 year old sleep w/ her rather than her husband!!! no kid of mine would EVER be sleeping in my bed unless they were sick or scared of something thats just ridiculous, kids need to have limits and learn to sleep alone

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@123shesucks Why? Because no one taught you LIMITS?

[xxxyogaloverxxx]

@xxxjoelpolexxx That's right lucy tell off these haters.. Ur a great mom, and i always loved ur vid... When i frist visited YT, ur vids were the first i watced and still do... Ur kids are so cute and u can see ur a great MOM... And Wife...

[123shesucks]

@ilovehandbags06

that girl needs a butt woopen!!! she dont realize shes going to have the worst kids when they grow up- she thinks letting them sleep in bed and all that crap is a good parent, the reason there are rules and limits set is so your children grow up with that, they also dont have bedtimes or any routine.

[Yveth83]

@123shesucks Why even bother watching her videos if u think shes such a bad parent ????

[lunarain19]

@123shesucks You need to just let her raise her kids the way she wants and stop saying what her daughter needs because you don't know what she "needs" your not her mother.

[123shesucks]

@lunarain19

im sure lucys mom thought she knew what lucy wanted as a child and now lucy doesnt want anything to do with her

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@123shesucks My Mother isn't a woman who understand or practices the meaning of "unconditional love" and your exactly right, I don't. I don't want my children subjected to such behavior. A child should NEVER grow up thinking that their family will ONLY love them so long as it's by their terms. We raise our children w/ unconditional love always. There are no terms that must be meet. I do however thank my Mother for showing me what NOT to be like.

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@123shesucks PS.... My Mom wouldn't have had a clue what I wanted as a child because she never asked. It was her way, her terms or I got a trash bag of my belongings on the side of the street. Thank You for your input on what you THINK you know. I don't mind setting the record straight however. TARA LACI & LORA, I love your fake account ;)

[twistedheartsx]

Woah, crazy lions, haha. They almost looked fake!

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@twistedheartsx They sound fake when ur on the other side of the zoo...they aren't though!

[ilovehandbags06]

@twistedheartsx No they looked scary howling like that lol.

[staciamisty]

Ahhh...birds freak me out!! haha..My husband always makes fun of me when we go to the zoo..I race through the section with birds flying around.How warm is it there? I'm jealous..Seattle weather is taking it's time getting warm

[xxxjoelpolexxx]

@staciamisty haha I edited out the part of me crying "Joel PLEASE take the sticks I'm scared! They r going to bite me!" It's 80+
