[babymac004]

Hi beautiful! this blog popped up in the sidebar when I was watching something else..it's crazy I used to work as a party host for kids birthday parties at an indoor funpark thiny..got to do facepainting etc..and I also coached littlies gymnastics there and did craft programs during school holidys etc! Soooo much fun working with kids right?

[rachiibuu]

You look soooo much younger here Lora!

[ascgirl2005]

do you have any wedding pics? if so PLEASE let us see them (:

[Loraandlayton]

Yea, I have tons! I used to have video up, but I had to take it down because of the copyrights. I will upload it sometime this week, without music :o)

[steph32588]

Thanks for answering my question about how you and layton met !! :D

[Loraandlayton]

No prob! A lot of ppl keep asking and I always forget to answer it lol

[LADiiSOULJA3]

are you and Layton the same age.?

[Loraandlayton]

He's 2 1/2 years older than me.

[HiediGirlz]

DAYUUUM. nice rings(:

[Loraandlayton]

lol Thank you :o)

[SmallRiver22]

Too bad you wont be in Michigan we are buying a house and would like to finish the basement. Nice to see you have things worked out.

[mina247]

Im so glad that you guys are in a happier place and dont have the stress of working somewhere you dont really like. Glad you guys can finacially take a break and get some family time in! :) you look great!

[hlc1122]

where in fl are you talking about? i know where i am buisness' that your talking about are going under :( so your lucky he has jobs lined up becuase my hubby's in construction and his job is about to go under too :/

[brittanytrevino]

hey we are unemployed too, but we ARE broke and DONT know what we are going to do.

[Loraandlayton]

Aw, I'm sorry to hear that. It's amazing how many ppl I know who are in the same boat as y'all. Things will get better though! They just gotta get worse first. Grr!

[MelB0610]

Your so funny! I think it's cute how you met! I love the, he's cuuuuute! lol Hopefully everything works out with the job situations, i can't believe his own uncle would be like that! That is why i would hate working with family! Good luck with everything!

[Loraandlayton]

We couldn't believe he'd be like that either. No one else in his family is like that. And no one in mine is either. So we are both still kind of in shock lol

[08jaydensmommy08]

congrats on crawling! Jayden is still not interested lol

[Loraandlayton]

Haha, Oh we're still workin on it!

[jcning]

Oohh, I know all about family drama! I work with my husband's family and we work in real estate/property management and it can get crazy. My advice to everyone else is to not work with family...the professionalism is just not there! Hope thing works out for you guys!

[nicoles713]

i just knoe everything will work out fine :) when one door closes another opens and until then just enjoy the spare time you get to spend with Layton right?

i CANT WAIT for Tripp to start crawling. its gotta be soon :)

[Loraandlayton]

Exactly! We are LOVING spending so much time together. And he has other jobs lined up, so we have no stress. It's wonderful :o)

[nicoles713]

see thats awesome! everything happens for a reason and this is just a new and exciting chapter for your little family :)

[megsapatsfan]

All of your rings are very pretty! I love jewelry that is heart shaped. I follow you on twitter so I was like wondering what was up! I don't know if that sounds weird but anyway thanks for sharing!!! I hope everything works out for you, too!

[Loraandlayton]

Haha thank you!! Everything is working out beautifully!

[xoTynearaxo]

Glad ur smiling....be grateful....some people r worst off...im jobless, pregnant, i dont have ANYTHING to call my own...so watching this just seems like ur living well hun....thank god u have a beautiful husband and dont have to struggle like SOME of us :)

[53531640]

Nothing as exciting about planning a new adventure in your life. It is like going on a walking trek you have never been on, and looking at a fork in the path and saying which one today. Oh I love your T-shirt, but dont you feel a bit self conscious wearing it?

[lovelaughing3]

I hope you find something you love, and your rings are beautiful!

[stephleephoto]

YOur rings are beautiful :)

[ymeika8]

I think you should be doing something that you love and enjoy - you're such a passionate person that I can just tell you would be successful at anything you decide to put your heart into - good luck with it :)

[Loraandlayton]

Aww thank you!

[tgrkuty07]

Sorry Im just getting around to watching this. Been super busy.

Like I said on twitter, Im happy for you guys! I know it didnt end the way you would of liked it, but it's probably for the best. Im getting ready to move to Florida! I've been here in Oklahoma for a long time & Im moving to Orlando in 2 weeks. Beautiful rings by the way!!

[princesspeach101123]

Lucky duck ! ughh, im jelous haha ! Hey when are u and Nikki meeting in Vegas ? Wasent that supposed to be this summer !

[Loraandlayton]

No, we were actually planning on doing it in October, but it doesn't look like it's gonna happen right now. Way too much going on. But we will meet one day! We plan on going to NY sometime next year and we'll spend the whole time with them lol

[americanidolbabe3]

sorry to hear about all these family problems. hope for the very best for you guys. :)

[Parkerfur]

Haha I love your tags for the video:

unemployed young family love happy excited no stress

I like the no stress... I think sometimes, you need to be forced to make a choice before you will actually do it. It will probably turn out better for you guys in the end. Good Luck and thanks for all your vlogs !!!  I am just starting TTC and loved watching your pregnancy journey

[Loraandlayton]

That's exactly what happened. I'd been telling Layton to quit for a while because I wouldn't quit until he did. It took all that craziness for us to get out lol! Who knows how long we would've stayed.. Good luck with TTC!! :o)

[desichicdeeps]

Lora, you took a brave decision! I hope you and your family always do well in life. :)

[Loraandlayton]

Thank you :o)

[JoyeuseSteuer]

I'm so sorry you guys had to go through that! Atleast you have such a positive attitude, that's awesome!

[restlessheart]

Ugh that really is ridiculous! Sorry you've been having to put up with that b/s. You definitely deserve better! Wishing you all the best :)

That's great about your hubby's business!

I'm kind of in the same boat...my hubby lost his job & we're starting our own business.

[skylerzmom]

Well much Congratulations for getting out of the business!! lol Isn't there a saying somewhere that family and business don't mix? My mom opened a business with her family and they worked together for 10+ years until one day after being so unhappy for so long, she decided that she wanted to get out! And that started a huge fight! Her brothers and dad wouldn't talk to her for years! ! But i'm glad this is opening up an awesome opportunity for ya'll! So I definently wish you the best of luck!

[Loraandlayton]

Thank you! Yea I had a feeling it wouldn't work out, but we had to give it a try!

[HeavensAngel1121]

sucks that his uncle would do that to yall. happy that yall can spend that time together :) Cute how you met story. Love your ring :)

[rashahamad]

wow you've really lost a lot of weight it shows....NICE :)

[mandyr76]

are you going to move back to florida? good luck to you both in what ever you do!!! xxxx

[jannali09]

your rings are WONDERFUL!!!!

[Loraandlayton]

Thank you!!

[smoothseas1]

aww ur story is so cute :)

[missmellyful]

ur ring is beautiful, im glad you guys are doing well u seem so much more happier =) xo

[kookaiiz]

ur ring is gorgeous lora.

looks like it cost a bit too hehe.

[kookaiiz]

Laytons uncle sounds like a real doosh bag lol you guys should be glad to be out of there...you guys are the sweetest ppl and deserve much better then to be treated like that by your own family of all ppl. Keep smiling ;o)

And definetly agree with a few of the lower posts..it does look like you've lost weight. You look good xxx

[Loraandlayton]

He is indeed one lol! We ARE glad to be out :o)

[nickiweb21]

I have learned to never live or work for family. It always ends up a disaster. Goodluck with what you guys decide to do. I am sure it will all work out

[whitney614]

Girl you look like you've lost weight!? I love your shirt! Sorry yall are having family drama....

[Loraandlayton]

Yea I have lost a lil, thank you :o)

[carebearkidd]

Follow your heart when it comes to the new job :)

[Loraandlayton]

I shall, thank you :o)

[lsubabygirl728]

thanks for being so open with us :) i love when you share what's going on

good luck with everything, can't wait for more updates

[rexrodecolt]

Great Video

[lovetakescourage1127]

Rings are gorgeous.

[frowniebrown86]

I might not go back to work either this year! I agree w/ the no stress attitude, sum ppl ALWAYS find a way to get by and live good lives, worrying doesn't help! Its good to have change, it makes ppl start thinking about their passions in life :) I know what you mean about the feeling you get when meeting your husband :) Sooo I'm not so good w/ math this time of night, did you and Layton meet in 2004 too? Cuz we've been talkin about our kids since then too, and its about damn time we have 1!

[Loraandlayton]

Exactly. I don't need negativity in my life. I have a GREAT life! Layton and I met in 2005, I was almost 17. And yes, y'all need to hurry it up and make a baby :o)

[jengo823]

I am sorry to hear that news but everything works out for it's best.. My hubby has been the only one working since last May i got laid off as well as found out i was having baby #2 so you see it worked out lol.. Money is tight but i would have to pay tons in daycare if i worked... Well wish you ya the best and btw i have that shirt it's too funny it was a gift..

[LaceyandCole]

Sorry about how your family treated you but sounds like it really doesn't even phase you!! I hope you and Layton figure things out and keep us updated. Oh, and it looks like you lost some weight!! Hope everyone is doing well!

[Loraandlayton]

It doesn't lol! I'm glad to move on to better things. I will def keep y'all updated! Thank u!

[mamatrixxie]

What an ass his uncle is. Good though, you want out of there anyway! As soon as that lease is up haha... But it's still annoying it had to go down that way! I just can't wait for you to not be on the other side of the country because I seriously need Nikki/Lora + Leah/Tripp playdates ASAP. Too much stress... def need some Lora in my life tahah

[Loraandlayton]

I can't wait to live somewhere else too! I love the adventure of moving and being in a new place! Plus, we need to be closer together since you and I are soul mates and so are our children! :o) lol

[lbcrayz]

everything happens for a reason and i love how positive you are about it. you look so pretty and your rings are nice too. you look like you lost even MORE weight.!!

[Loraandlayton]

Aww thank you! I have lost a tad more.

[princesspeach101123]

you gotta do a video how you do your hair ahah !!

[Loraandlayton]

Haha all I do is wash it and blow dry it! It's naturally straight.

[Aliwisha1]

what is the minimum age you can put a baby in a walker there is a really cute princess walker at walmart I want to get Ella but I just don't know when she will be ready for it. She is only 4 months old so its too early now.

[Loraandlayton]

I don't thnk there is a set age minimum. They just need to be able to hold their heads up and reach the floor with their feet. Tripp was too small to walk in it at first, but he loved to just sit in it and play.

[xxsantababy]

you should become youtube partner and make more videos to make money because we all love your stories and your beautiful family :)

[hneybee123]

Thats great that you guys aren't stress anyone... I know only the best will come you guys way!!=)

btw - youre looking great!

[kbaybay101]

But i'm glad you did get out since you wanted to!

[JenNTim509]

Well that's too bad about the poopy job/family drama but glad everyone is happier now!!! It will be exciting to see what happens! P.s. You look great!

[janciepants]

I'm sorry to hear about the family/job situation, but I wish you all the best in finding a solution that's right for you and your family. Keep the faith! :)

[flosso1986]

PS: Your rings are so beautiful!! How did Layton propose?? :)

[Loraandlayton]

Thank you! He popped the question on the beach where we had our first kiss :o)

[toxicambuuur]

you look like your getting slimmer, do you have a set weight you want to get to? your looking great like always! it looks like your growing your hair out too? i know i sure am, cuttin my hair while pregnant was a mistake..lol

[Loraandlayton]

Thank you! No I don't have a set weight. I just wanted to be where I was b4 I got preggo. And I reached that a few months ago. Yea I'm growing my hair back out. Good thing it grows so fast! I hated it after I cut it lol

[poisonfairy91]

[flosso1986]

[Loraandlayton]

Thank you :o)

[ashb015]

Yeah i follow you on twitter and saw that lol!! but you seemed like it was a good change for you! haha! BTW you made Beautiful Boy seem like such a good book that i bought it LOL!! just started reading it! It's good so far!

[Loraandlayton]

Oh, it IS a good thing! I'm excited :o) "Beautiful Boy" is really good! But his Son's book "Tweak" is way crazier. You see how oblivious his Dad is. You wouldn't believe what Nic was actually doing...

[missJtube]

GOOD LUCK... on the jobfront!!

good to see you still cheery :0) x

[Loraandlayton]

Thank you! I know I'll fin something :o) If I even want another job!

[alana09199]

[hippiemommy009]

I LOVE your shirt! I'm so sorry about the family drama. How stressful! Wow! I so wish my fiance knew your husband! He (my fiance) needs to find a new job too, but you guys sound wayyyy more prepared than we are. You are so strong! That is very similar to the way we met also :). What a rock he gave! lol...anyway I hope things smooth out for you...you're in our prayers.

[Loraandlayton]

Aww thank you! Y'all are in ours too :o) Everything will work out.

[FitchFANATIC]

Aww. Hope everything gets better!:)
