  • i just found your videos and was wondering is the birth mother still a part of yall lives? are yall as close to her as yall are to the father?

  • @mommy12310 Yes she is and yes we are : )

  • Awe he looks just like his (biological) father! I am very proud of the strangth he had to give sawer a life that he couldnt provide. God bless him. And god bless you, for adopting sawer! How sweet! One question does sawer know who jayson is??

  • @makeeeupfan101 Thank you : ) Yes he does know who he is : )

  • I always get soooo happy when you post videos about this.. Because so many adopted kids (who didn't have an open adoption) feel like searching for their parents later on in life, to find out where they're coming from, why they do this and that, etc. Lucky Sawyer is never going to feel that way, because he already knows! He's just going to be a happy boy, and man later on, and never going to feel ''lost''.. I'm so happy for all of you!

  • @TheAmericanDream25 Thank you so much!! I feel truly blessed to have things the way they are : )

  • I love that piano song at the end! What's it called?

  • wow 6:30 made me cry

  • how exciting. Congrats to Jason and Gaby on their baby girl.

  • It's so great that you still have contact with not only Sawyer's b-mom but b-dad too! Was it hard to hear the news that Jason is having another baby so young? As an adoptive parent who has struggled for years to conceive as well, I know if it was me, that would be really hard news to swallow. I mean it's great that he appears to be growing up and maturing but do you still have the pangs of jealousy? I know I would.

  • wow, this is so honest. And real. Love this video, and I think it's a very important one to share with others. Thank you for that!!

  • Wow, that's big news!! Tell them congratulations from me! I think they'll be fine, atleast Jason has matured a lot, being older and having got through Sawyer's adoption. :)

  • @young91303 Thanks! Yes, That is Jason's Mother : -)

  • Congrats to him!!! I think the relationship between you guys is awesome. What does Sawyer call Jason?

  • @nellyville6502 Thank you : ) He calls Jason "Jason".

  • he will do great, how couldn't he considering he has you and your family as roll models :) i have alot of respect for you all x

  • @pdshelty Thank you so much : -)

  • I wish Jason all the best! I love how you guys even talk about the really tough questions and you dont hold back!

  • @stephleephoto Thank you! I am glad he is willing to be so open and honest.

  • I am happy for Jason, he has grown so much as a person; it's easy to see that from the videos he is in as well as what little updates you give on him and a Lauren. Sawyer knows and always will know that he has all these people who love him every much. He(Sawyer) is going to have one BIG family. Jason is going to be pretty close to were i live. Jason is already a great dad "Bio-Dad to Sawyer". The future has a lot in store for all of the important people in Sawyers' life.

  • @MidwestBeautyxo You are so sweet. Jason is going to be just fine :-)

  • I'm wishing Jason and Gaby the best :) I'll be thinking about them! I'm sure everything will work out just fine <3

  • @aprilc0t Thank you!

  • Congrats to Jason, Gaby and Sawyer on being a big brother! You and Brett are amazing parents!! Sawyer is one lucky little boy :) I love how your family keeps growing. Its so exciting! Open adoption is so awesome! Thank you for sharing Candace :) I hope you have an amazing day. -Candace

  • @canaconacoe Thank you Candace : -)

  • I love your relationship with Sawyer's birth parents. What an awesome gift yall are giving him with that relationship! Every time I see a birth mom/dad video, I cry because it is so special that you and Brett show so much love towards them:) I loved Jason's answer to the "why me and not this baby" question.

  • @juliet1178 Awww, thank you so much!!!

  • Thank you so much for sharing this.

  • @Mommy2angelplus2 No problem :-)

  • Congrats to Jason! Also Congrats to Sawyer for being a big brother. I love the relationship you have with his birth parents. Thank you for sharing Candance.

  • CONGRATS to Jason and his girlfriend on a baby girl!!! I think he is going to be a great daddy!!!

  • @MyLifeMyStoryMe He sure does :-)

  • Jason seems to be in the right direction. Life happens and now he is bringing another baby into the world. I can see where people question some things but it isn't our lives. Sawyer's birth parents did what they thought was the best thing and now if Jason thinks the best thing is to raise this new baby then that is great. I love how understanding you are. I think Jason has grown from life experiences and he will be a great person (well he is already a great person).

  • @mommy2logan112604 Jason is a wonderful person and we love him dearly. He is going to be just fine :-)

  • And Aldo it's so great Sawyer won't have to search for possible siblings and parents latter on. He will always know them which is wonderful. In my eyes you are creating the perfect life for this baby. Your next baby will be do lucky go. Become part of your family.

  • @elesha76 Thank you so much!!

  • He should always let the other baby know Sawyer and Sawyer should always know about the other baby and they wont think anything of it they will just always know what happened and why!!!

  • @jeanandcoltansmommy I plan on doing that on our end. Sawyer will always know he has a 1/2 biological sister : )

  • lolol at the end! First time for everything (in reference to him always being right about gender!!!) lol Congrats to him & to Sawyer on his bio sis!!!

  • @TeaSippa12 Jason is silly. Thank you for your support :-)

  • is gaby sawyer's birth mom?

  • @babyphatgurlee Nope

  • oohhh Sawyer is so lucky he has two Daddys.. and Congratulations for Jason's .. he want it a boy.. but it is a Girl.. lol.. so cute!!Thanks for sharing this videos.. love it!!

  • @RGBeatrizRG Thank you: ) No, Sawyer has one Daddy(Brett) and one Birth Dad(Jason). The two have very separate roles. We don't co-parent. I hope that doesn't come out rude I was just trying to make the distinction. 

  • oh did he wanted a boy? or he just knew it was a boy!.. how old is his girlfriend?

  • @ruthfv123 He just "knew" it was a boy. LOL He is happy it is a girl though ; )

  • @ruthfv123 Oh and I don't know how old she is.

  • I just had a son in October and named him Liam:) You should tell Jason to stick with Liam! I get so many compliments on his name and I really like it:) congrats to him and Gaby!!

  • @Lindsay2313 Liam is a good name... however the baby is a girl so they won't be using that name anymore. LOL

  • Loved this- Such a wonderful perspective on things for people to see! Good for Jason:)

  • @ekramer18 Thank you!

  • how old is jason? very happy for him, seems like he has grown alot

  • @yeahdudewhat He is almost 20. 

  • I wish all the best for Jason & his new family! It looks like he is doing well!

  • @styling4u Thank you!! He's going to be just fine :-)

  • so Jason, Sawyer's biological father, is having another baby with a different woman (not Sawyer's biological mother) is that right?

    He was 18 when Sawyer was concieved/born? and now he's 20.

  • @ReillyAJ Thats right.

  • oh a question i had as well..does sawyer see his birth parents parents (grandparents)?

  • @chall1011 Yes he does!! His Mimi and Granna : ) Every couple of months or so.

  • this was great to see an the one question i had the entire time was what will you tell sawyer when he asks why did you keep him/her an not me...but you asked that an it was answered...im sure when sawyers birth mom has a baby as well sawyer will think about it but never let it get to him by being upset ect...he's a happy boy, loved this video!

  • I absoutely love how close you are !!! It makes me smile so much !!!!!! I love these videos and I love you all to bits .. Congrats to Jason and Gaby .. I hope you keep us updated !! xoxo

  • @CrazyCoolShorty Thank you D! Love you too!!! I will for sure :-)

  • This was an amazing video. Super interesting. So, so many questions...so many things to think about for the future.

    Good luck in the military, Jason.

  • @TheAppieShow You're telling me! This is all so new to me. I don't know what the future holds but I'm sure it will all be just fine. COME VISIT!

  • AWWWW Sawyer is so LOVED !!! :0)))))

  • @KaraDaneDallas  He is very very VERY much ; )

  • HAHA i bet he was surprised that the baby was a girl LOL. i have a Question is the mother also Sawyers birth mom or is it a different person that he is with now?

  • @mrsjerriq No, Sawyer has a different birth mom.

  • I like the thought of Sawyer being able to have a relationship with his bio-dad and future bio-siblings. Congrats to Jason and good luck in his future!

  • @hailiesue17 Thank you!

  • LOL I love how he was so sure it was a boy and it's a girl. What did he think of that?

  • @afwifekari He was surprised but super excited!

  • I'm so happy for Jason and his new lil family of 3! How long have him and Gaby been together? He seems like he's REALLY grown up a lot since you first met him and introduced him to us youtubers!! "it ac-cidentally happened" rofl. he's funny. The pictures at the end are so so sweet!!!! Yay for lil half sister for Sawyer!!!!!!! :D

  • @SuhWeet12489 Thank you. I'm not sure exactly how long they have been together... for a while though.

  • @ouradoptionoption That's cool. Like I said, I'm very happy for him and his new lil family. It is kind of sad he may end up in colorado though! but hey more of a reason for you guys to take more vacations! :D I love watching your vacation videos. You & Brett are great parents to Sawyer! :)

  • @SuhWeet12489 I have about 900 vacations videos coming soon. We went to some crazy places ; )

  • Glad he seems to be doing so well. I hope everything works out for him. & yay for a little girl!

  • @tgrkuty07 Thank you!

  • Thank you for updating! Nice to see what is going on with everyone. Crazy! I did not see that one coming !I'm sure you guys didn't either! Now it would be fun to hear from Sawyer's birth mom! :) I wonder what she thinks and feels.

  • @dreamflight6000 Thank you! It was definately a surprise to us and it took me a few days to process it all. However I'm good now and excited for Jason. I just didn't know what to think or expect at the time. LOL B-ma knows and is supportive of it all : )

  • Thanks for sharing this video. A part of me feels like if my adopted son's father or mother had a baby (like in this case) I would want that child as well.. since it is a sibling of my child. Did you have those thoughts at all?

    This may be a really dumb question but I have no clue how adoption works.. is there anyway that the birth parents would be able to take the child back legally in the future? Hope that makes sense!

  • @JenNTim509 I did have those thought but not exactly like that. I guess the best way to explain it is that I felt like that was a part of Sawyer that I will never have but that I should have. Meaning I felt like his siblings should come from us because that is the traditional way. He is going to have a sister but Im not the sister's mother. I'm still trying to understand it myself. LOL And no the birth parents can not take back the child once the adoption is finalized.

  • Also, I just found you & subscribed Candace. I remember seeing you on Lucy's video & thought it was so amazing the lengths you went to so he could have breast milk. I nursed my son for 18 months & if I had adopted I would have done the same thing. He is just a few weeks younger than Sawyer...my son, Vince, was born December 1st. I absolutely love your channel & am so glad you share your story with us all! You are a wonderful mom! xoxo

  • @mrsmommy81 You are so sweet!! Thanks for all the love and support :-)

  • This is really a neat video...wonderful to see the birth father's perspective. He seems like he has a good head on his shoulders & wants to succeed in life. The fact that he chose a better life for his child..2 find adoptive parents to love him & care for him in a way he wasn't capable of was a beautiful, selfless act...he is an amazing person. And I must say, the birth mother & father are both gorgeous! Sawyer is beautiful & so are you & your husband! Just a beautiful big family you are:) xoxo

  • @mrsmommy81 Thank you so so much!!!!

  • I'm glad that he is doing well and has a plan he seems like a great guy but.... secretly (shhhhh) i was hoping he would put this next baby up for adoption as well so that you guys could adopt it as well :) You will find YOUR baby though i have faith in that ! you guys are such great parents i know you will add to your family when the time is right and when the right baby is born (i feel like parents don't pick the baby ... the baby picks them before they are born!)

  • @JrdnLeigh haha, our next baby is out there, I just don't know where. Sometimes I even wonder if they are in their birth mother's womb as we speak. I love your thinking!!

  • Very Great Video.

    I was adopted and my little sister asked the "why me and not them?" question. It wasn't out of jealously but in curiousness. It's hard wondering but I don't worry sawyer will be upset. Adoption makes you secure in your family. It really makes you a much stronger person.

    I am thankful for your videos. : )

  • @ilovealexdylan12 Thank you for your comment! I think Sawyer will understand and be very ok and accepting of the situation.... at least I hope he is ; )

  • Glad to see him doing well!

  • @rmmartin92405 Thanks friend!!

  • I really enjoy these videos and wish y'all well!

  • @topazbaby09 Thank you so much :-)

  • haha just saw the end!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @MrsKLRivers I thought that was funny!!

  • so glad you guys got to see him and catch up!! and i so hope he has a little girl!!! hehe!!

  • this was awesome!:) always always love your videos:) do you plan on raising them as siblings? Sorry if that sounds like an ignorant question..I think its really neat though! congrats to Jason

  • @maria22284 Thank you! Sawyer will always know he has a 1/2 sister out there but other than that as of right now I don't know what the future hold with how close they will be. This is all so new to me.

  • I definately understand if you initially had some mixed feelings about this...kind of a tough situation but it sounds like in the end everyone is going to be just fine. Best wishes for Jason and Gaby. Wishing nothing but the best for you and your family Candace! Lots of adoption baby dust for you!!

  • @Markswife123 Thank you so much for your love, support, and adoption dust ; )

  • At first i was a little shocked but yet not suprised. No offense. He seems as though he does have his life set on the right path. Hopefully with the future sawyer and his future sister will be close.

  • @nickiweb21 I'm not sure where this road will go but what ever way it is, I know it is the way it was meant to be :-)

  • Congrats to him, wish him the best in his future!

  • @jfishbar I will! Thank you :-)

  • hehe it's a girl how funny ;o) Looks like he is doing well and getting his life right on track! : )

  • @08jaydensmommy08 Yes..he was quite surprised. LOL 

  • So awesome these updates and seeing them together is so awesome love the pictures :D

  • @jengo823 Thank you so much :-)

  • So much for him being always right lol. That made me laugh at the end wow he's matured so much please wish him all the best from me I know he don't know but still all the support he needs:O)

  • @ilovehandbags06 I know right!! LOL Thank you so much for all your love and support friend :-)

  • Congratulations Jason!

  • Im glad to see hes getting his life together and starting a career. He looks good without his earings. lol

  • @MissLea922 Agreed ; ) 

  • wow! i hope things work out as well as they are planning. i'm really glad to see that someone so young is taking control of his life in such a positive way.

  • @thebabymuse He is a great person. He will be just fine :-)

  • GREAT VIDEOE! Lovely to see what is going on behind the seen a little.

  • @matelkokoko Thank you!

  • Wow, there will be many different opinions on this video I am sure. However I think that what you have with the Birth parents is wonderful. When you say why is it so easy for some? Think of it as everything happens for a reason. God knows exactly what he is doing. He knew that Sawyer would come on this earth for a purpose. And God knew that he would need you and you would need him. You are great parents.

  • @JSSmith4273 I have learned that. There is no doubt in my mind that this was our destined path all along. It just took us a while to find it. This whole process has been the best thing I've ever learned. The hardest... but the best : ) Thank you for being so supportive <3

  • it's sad, but true, teen parents, usually have another child(ren) within a couple years of their last. but jason seems ambitious and hard working though, he will probably do well in life!

  • @xsnowhitequeenx1 He is a great guy! He will be just fine : )

  • That is really shocking, but I am so glad he is shaping up and taking responsibility. It is so good to know he is doing well.

  • @TaylorSwiftfan1iever He is doing great! Hey did you ever see my family taylor swift video? It's called Taylor Swift This! LOL

  • Wow, but God has a plan! :) They are so cute together!

  • @alana09199 He does for sure! Thank you : )

  • Wow, I can't imagine what you guys are thinking.. Im glad for him that he's going into the marines and starting a life. But it is crazy.. But Sawyer has AMAZING PARENTS!!!!

  • @MBShrewsbury Thank you! We just stay positive and look forward to our interesting future ; )
