 good morning everybody there's 10 days left to our little baby boy arrives 10 days very excited so there's a lot to get done still before he gets here at least we feel like there's a lot to get done we pretty much got everything in place but you know there's the little things we want we want everything to be perfect by the time he gets here and we're starting to realize you know what it's hard to make life exactly perfect so we're doing our best right now i'm just uh i just went out to buy some more paint i'm going to be painting our bedroom as soon as i can moving our mattress from that room into our nursery before the boy arrives so that i can quickly paint our master bedroom and have that room sealed off and ventilated so that we can uh be back in there before he comes here's to hoping he doesn't come early for that reason but if he does well we'll make it work right that's just one of those things that's just not perfect then but it's got to be perfect so we're done with the nursery we're just waiting for one sign from my sister to hang up above his crib and we'll hang up a couple more pieces of artwork and the nursery is done painted and it feels really good to walk into that room and like be happy with it be happy with the room of the house we haven't done anything to this house on the inside really since we bought it and so i want that same feeling when we go into our bedroom so i'm also going to be painting our bedroom it's a similar type of blue uh the blue we went with is uh it's called uh aegean aegean tool aegean teal very similar to the nursery but a little off the themes in our house are going to be like grays and blues like gray blues not any bright blues brit has a really good sense of uh decorating decorating a house and paint colors much better than me uh so these are the colors that she picked and when we did the nursery it actually turned out really good i really like it so i trust her when she says this is probably the color we should do uh she asked me if i liked it and i'm like hey it's better than what we got now it's gonna look great i think it's gonna look awesome once it's all done so that's what i'm doing now running errands i went and picked up the paint uh i'm gonna go get some dog food now so we don't gotta worry about picking up dog food later on next week or the week after uh tomorrow we have to run into winnipeg for a uh another fetal exam to examine the baby in more detail we have to go all the way to winnipeg for that we just found out about that like an hour ago so that's going to be our day tomorrow going into winnipeg tune in for that vlog uh i'm gonna go get some dog food now and uh we got some donations we're bringing to uh the mcc in town here at the thrift store it's gonna be a busy it's always busy it's busy i'm not stressed i'm not stressed you're stressed i'm not stressed everything's okay plus we have to clean up my shop yet that needs to be done it's a good day i just got a free bag of dog food a big one at pet value where we buy our dog food every tenth bag you buy is free or is it you buy 10 and the next one's free huh something like that anyways and uh just turns out the big guys food was free today it's usually like 50 bucks 40 or 50 bucks it's not the most expensive brand but it's uh not the cheapest by any means either it's and it's senior food uh it's performatron performatron prime senior dog food that's what they need i can show you later if i remember when we get back to the house lots to do i haven't even started organizing the shop yet

also having pizza for supper tonight and i'm very excited about it and i have to pick it up i have to leave here in uh hour and a half so i've got some time yet just like i was saying in yesterday's vlog i want to switch that couch over with that table there clear off the table clear off the couch flip them around and then this area here's gonna be where like the tools and stuff my shelving always and everything now with the motorcycle and the quads and i want to get rid of that uh green riding tractor under there i just want to bring to the dump anyone just whatever i can do just to get it out of here maybe my dad wants it he fixes up those kinds of things maybe he wants it and he can sell it or something i'll give him first dibs and if he doesn't want it i'm gonna find a not like he needs any more clutter in his shop either this shop looks nice and clean compared to his his is all organized but it's all van he's got lots of tools lots of tools i just got lots of junk literal junk up there all has to go to the dump from the mattress up i didn't get there in time today i had too many errands to run so i'll have to run that to the dump uh another day and this side is pretty good except for that table right there i'm gonna clear up that's just like you guys know storage for our house always stuff to do so i'm at home for uh for a little while now till may i might take uh get out there on the road a little bit before then for like some day trips down to fargo or something if they have anything available for me but i have until may uh we've spent a long time saving up for this so that we're ready like uh financially for this time it is our first child so i mean we do need to figure out what we're doing and i wanted the extra time to also get a few things done like this and then afterwards just to make sure that we're all set that we know what's going on and then you know once we get the hang of it you know for our second child we'll be a lot more prepared in here because we'll know what to expect by then so we got the office space set up pretty much and that's about it need more time but we will be talking about house products a lot more in the future they got people at house sent me a care package i want to share with you probably in tomorrow's vlog we're gonna be doing a couple of giveaways here all kinds of stuff so i'm really happy to begin working together with them great guys they've been around for over a hundred years and their slogan here says house tested trusted guaranteed since 1920 you all know their products you've seen their products on the shelves and stuff that's truck stops i will be talking about them more in the future but for now i need to get going the pizza's ready i have to go get the pizza i can't be late picking up the pizza because then the pizza's cold that the pizza's cold the wife is not happy and neither am i so no one's happy we'll see you tomorrow old blue i'll be back you sleep tight i actually uh got in touch with house or they got in touch with me through uh my friend tony justice and i met tony justice a long time ago at uh the driver's lounge where we were filming down in arkansas and he's also working together with bullsnot so we know each other through bullsnot and through multiple things down the road he's a country singer down in the states if you haven't heard of him you really should check him out you can go to tonyjustice.com it's my favorite singer he sings trucking songs he's a trucker himself so he doesn't just sing about trucking he lives the life some of the best pizza around it's pizza de louisa in lebroquerie brit actually worked here for uh for quite a while a year or two or something look at the roads though eh spring is supposed to be just around the corner but this is manitoba so keep that in mind sheer ice that is i'm glad we live in town feel the back end of the truck just swimming around take it real nice and easy oh and then there's somebody up here messing with traffic yet come on it's already icy guys you don't gotta be all goofy about it messes up things even more that's the thing about the highway right it's when the conditions get bad there's people that know how to drive in those conditions and then there's the people who don't and the people who don't usually make it much more dangerous for the people who do because if you're not sure of yourself and you're second guessing yourself you're not sure what you're doing you're getting scared usually they end up doing something like like this guy what's he doing how do you saw him in the forward shot there right it's just you have a four-wheel drive my friend for why are you driving in the ditch with your high beams on yet of course of course that makes perfect sense now one of those and now we're back to better highways i don't know what was up with that one driver we're really driving practically in the ditch like could you not tell where the lane was i could tell what the lane was where are you driving in the ditch so we just slowly drove past them and they had their high beams on so you know that's what we're talking about if if you're unsure and you're not like if you're not sure of yourself and you're not confident driving in some conditions the best thing to do is to just not drive this guy's got his high beams on too what are you what are these people doing out here what are you playing on my pet peeves for why are you doing that to me i just want to get home and eat my pizza those people getting in my way messing with me messing with my emotions come on man come on man i'm sorry not sorry if i sound a little grumpy just hungry hungry i'm thinking about eating some of that pizza now but if i get home and some pieces are missing from there that'll be worse than if i just wait until i get home we'll eat them together i know these things just a little hangry you best stay out of my way when i'm hungry i'm so hungry though i skipped lunch i don't know why no reason i just didn't feel like it was a lunch kind of day i think it was i just didn't know i'm gonna inhale that pizza just gonna go away so fast you won't even know there was a pizza in there morning everybody it's already afternoon we're at tims in the city good afternoon everybody we just stopped by tims very important important for him i got hot chocolate i haven't had caffeine since what like six months before i got pregnant long time it's been a long time she has been straight edge it's true hardcore everything something to do with a baby i don't something to do with a baby and fertility caffeine apparently is not very good for fertility so but uh yeah we're in winnipeg for a special appointment that we didn't know was coming yeah they sprung it on us 24 hours before they're like hey sent us a message you're booked in for a fetal assessment at saint boniface hospital tomorrow at three we're like what yeah why didn't tell us why they didn't tell us why so i've been on edge uh i was diagnosed with uh gestational hypertension so they're just making sure that my blood flow is not impacting the baby's blood flow and uh everything looks good our little guy is measuring in the 50th percentile completely average so they estimated he will be between six pounds six ounces and seven pounds six ounces i don't know how there's not a lot of belly there definitely thought you'd be popping out more but he's squished in there somewhere poor little dude he's just he's cramped so we have to go again next week uh next uh yeah in seven days from now and uh so next week's gonna be busy lots of appointments and uh end of baby at the end of it next week baby at the very last on friday yeah so oh yeah yeah it's gonna be go go go go go i'm already exhausted just thinking about it but all's well she said from everything that she saw on the ultrasound everything is good so we're very happy about that you know i put the baby on board sticker on the back of the vehicle already you think that would stop people from tailgating people in winnipeg no they'll tell you again they don't care it's a city people thing big cities people are just ignorant rude and only care about themselves that's why that's what it seems like we like our little corner of the world where people tend to be not all but tend to be more courteous and care about others because everybody knows everybody through somebody in smaller towns everyone in the city is just in a rush they're in a rush to get where like you you ask them where are you going like they won't have a good answer for you oh go home oh try to get to mcdonald's i'm hungry yeah oh they just drive like idiots with no regard for others lives and they drive like maniacs and they're only saving like maybe five seconds on their on their two minute trip yeah but putting other people's lives in danger i don't understand it like coming from a small town country life i just don't understand the rush in the city well why are you in such a rush worry you live so close to everything right everything is five minutes away there's no rush yeah i know the second that you entered the city limits of winnipeg you can like and i talked to tons of people about this that don't live in the city anymore or never have you can feel attention the second you get into the city limits like there's just there's anger there's hostility there's aggression everybody's in a hurry to get nowhere people tailgating you right away just anger i'd never moved back here okay so i have another project the hide-a-bed is out there's reason for that this room is finished except for the sign with his name on it it's going to be right there and a couple more pieces of artwork but other than that this room is finished so now my project is this room we're painting that wall in that wall a color called agian teal i think i told you this already right which is a little bit of a darker blue than that blue in there but we can't sleep in here while i'm doing that we have to keep this room a little ventilated and so i'm taking the mattress off of here off the bed frame and putting the mattress on behind a bed frame and we're going to sleep in there for a couple of nights while i get this room ready for us we've got new curtains for there as well the reason being is it feels so good walking into this room after having completely redone it and britain and i have found ourselves just standing in here enjoying it right looking around because it feels good feels good to enjoy i guess the fruits of your labor if that's what you want to call it enjoy a brand new room right so i want that same feeling in our bedroom as well there's only two bedrooms in this house so i want to get them both done but we have to keep that room sort of sealed off and ventilated while that's being painted just like i did with this room while i was doing this so i'm going to make this into our bedroom for tonight tomorrow night and possibly the next night but i want that room completely done before baby arrives so that this is completely you know all folded up and ready for him when he gets here that's my project right now i'm going to get a start on it tonight and i want to finish it tomorrow then we'll sleep in here tomorrow night and hopefully by the day after tomorrow at night we can get back into that room it might take another night yet we'll see but what's the plan paint painting painting chevy i'm enlisting your help you're in charge of bringing me the paint that i need okay it's right over here okay behind this it's right there so chevy will bring me the paint that i need when i need it right trusting you bring me the right one you don't want to mess this up so everything is finished and ready brit is uh just a few days away from it now i'm filming this end a little bit later as you can tell through my vlogs this whole week it's sort of just been a blur almost trying to get as much stuff done as possible before everything happens brit is very tired she's uh done with being pregnant she just wants the baby in her arms already so the first thing i wanted to do this week was get the shop cleaned up that didn't really happen uh we had a surprise appointment in the city there that's why the footer suddenly jumped to us in the city we had a surprise appointment that we didn't know about they just sort of sprung that that on us the day before so on Tuesday like afternoon we got a phone call from the doctor saying oh by the way we have an appointment for you in winnipeg tomorrow at three o'clock it was a fetal exam and everything is looking perfectly average which means everything is looking great baby's healthy brit is healthy now it's just a waiting game and then this whole week has been sort of just uh just a whir of things so my footage didn't exactly blend together the way i wanted it to plus i got some new equipment that i'm filming on now uh and i'm learning how to use this equipment my whole vlogging thing is going to be completely different now the whole setup is different the camera is completely different editing it is different so i'm trying to learn that as well now that i have the time off i'm trying to go over everything and i have to use some sony catalyst software i can still use my adobe premiere editing but everything is sort of a little bit more bulky like the camera is more bulky but it gives a much much better quality picture and that's why i wanted to buy it now the baby's coming in a couple of days and i wanted to be able to capture every moment all of those precious moments because once they're gone you never get them back again right every day they're changing so much and i didn't want to miss anything tomorrow there actually won't be any video uh because i spent all day painting in our bedroom and i'm really tempted to go and show you it now because it's already done when i'm filming this and i'm really happy with the way it turned out we're gonna save something for the next vlog i didn't vlog it while i was doing it it literally took me 13 hours so it took all day i got up early to what seven a.m eight breakfast had my coffee looked at a little bit of news you know my usual morning routine on my day off and around eight eight thirty we got going in the bedroom next door right behind that wall and it took me till about nine o'clock at night just to get it done then we let it dry and air out overnight and throw it the next day and the next day we put everything away so i didn't bother of vlogging at all i didn't want any distractions i promised that i would get it done in one day and i managed to do it but it was uh it's a little bit rushed but can't wait to show you that as well so the reason i wanted to paint our bedroom was just to get it done mostly because once the baby's here there's no way we would be able to get that done because i moved all of our bedding from that room into this room and this is a hide event that pops out right so we had the hide event popped out we brought our mattress in here and we were able to stay in this room for two nights i wanted the same feeling walking into our bedroom that i had walking into here now it's never gonna be exactly the same because this is the nursery right obviously it has some extra special sentimental feelings that show up when you come in here but brit and i found ourselves lately just standing in here especially in the evenings looking around and you know we're happy and proud of what we've turned it into this this room was kind of before the same paint was on the walls is when we moved into the house and it's never really feels like your own that way right this room now feels good feels good to be in and i wanted that same feeling in our bedroom so i'm looking forward to showing you that in the next video as well but anyways guys it's been great hanging out with you today sorry about the footage being all over the place but that's sort of how my mind is right now it sort of reflects where we're at i don't hold ourselves together and prepare but i think we're more than ready just a few days now
