- Bye.

- [Kendra] What are you guys doin'?

- Vloggin'.

(tropical beat music)

- I decided when I'm older,

I'm never gonna grow up.

- [Jeremy] Laura, you're doing awesome.

- Thanks.

- Isaac's doing the coolest thing,

you gotta see this.

Well it's kinda rainy and dreary out today.

Jeremy is at work

and the kids and I are starting the day off with a prayer.

Dear Heavenly Father--

(tender music)

We're having a good breakfast this morning,

eggs, toast, yogurt, granola

and talking about things that we're grateful for

and really really trying to get the day off

to a good start.

Hopefully it helps.

("Ode to Joy")

(jazzy piano playing)

(lively music)

- Hi. - Hi.

(laughing)

- She just had a baby.

- And her name is Lily.

- Bye. - Bye.

- [Kendra] What are you guys doing?

- Vloggin'.

Now I need to edit the video.

- Can you send the video to me?

That's really funny.

- [Kendra] How's your baby?

- She's doing good.

(kiss)

- [Kendra] We have this old phone

and Janae is playing with it.

She's been saying hello, it's adorable.

- Hello.

- [Kendra] Hello.

- Hello.

- So with the kids pretending to vlog this morning

and Janae walking around saying hello,

it just makes me so aware,

almost painfully aware of the fact

that my kids are watching me all the time

and they're learning from what I do,

and for good and for bad,

so I need to watch what I'm doing

and make sure I'm setting a really good example

for them to follow.

Bye, where are you guys going?

- To his wedding.

- [Kendra] You guys are going to Caleb's wedding?

- Yeah. - Have fun.

(shaker rattling)

- Somebody found shakers

and is so proud of herself.

I love watching her play.

It's just interesting to see

how she's exploring and discovering stuff.

It's truly entertaining to me.

Isaac's doing the coolest thing, you gotta see this.

- I figured out how far the free throw line would be

compared to an NBA place.

This hoop is five feet 10 inches tall.

The real NBA hoop is 10 feet tall

so I found what's 60 percent

and I looked in a book to see

what the free throw line,

how far it is from the hoop and it's 19 feet.

- So Isaac measured the hoop in his room

and compared it to a real NBA hoop

and then he took the distance that it would normally be

to a free throw line and used that same percentage

to calculate how far out his free throw line should be.

So Janae and I are spending some quality time on the stairs.

I'm trying to teach her how to go down correctly.

She's so close to getting it.

(Janae babbling)

Yeah, are you learning?

So as soon as Janae learns to safely go down the stairs,

we can move the baby gate.

She goes up just great,

but we gotta teach her how to go down safely,

which just takes practice huh?

Elise had a great idea,

the big kids are gonna show Janae how to do it.

Sit down, turn around and go down.

(bluesy music)

Stop, sit.

(Janae yells)

Good job, yay, she says cheer.

Going down.

- [Isaac] She sees us just walk down the stairs.

- I know, so it's hard for her.

- Yay! - Yay!

- Sit down.

(kids clapping)

- Yay! - Yay!

- Turn around and then you go down.

Yay! - Yay!

(bright guitar music)

- [Jeremy] So for snack we're doing nuts and dried fruit.

The kids were all complaining

that they wanted a snack.

Nae Nae's like what about me?

- I decided when I'm older,

I'm never gonna grow up.

- [Jeremy] You don't wanna grow up?

- Yep, I'm gonna stay a kid.

- [Jeremy] Why?

- 'Cause I just like my childhood.

- [Jeremy] Good.

How bout you Isaac?

Do you ever want to grow up?

- Yeah.

- [Child] Why?

- I wanna sometime be in the NFL or NBA.

- [Jeremy] So to play sports?

- Mmm-hmm, and also to have kids, I wanna have kids.

- I wanna grow up

and I want to try to be on the same team as Isaac.

- [Jeremy] For sports.

Nae Nae, do you want to grow up

or be a kid forever?

- A kid.

- [Jeremy] A kid.

(Jeremy laughs)

- [Caleb] No, she's saying frog.

- [Jeremy] She said I want to be a frog.

(laughing)

A dog, you think about dogs?

I want to be a dog.

This is a tough choice,

what should I be when I grow up?

(tropical beat music)

You jumpin'?

I love how she has one little finger up.

(Janae squeals)

Hey.

- Ha!

(Jeremy laughs)

- [Jeremy] That's a wall.

(Janae squeals)

Face plant.

These boys have been playing basketball

for at least a couple hours today.

- Four hours.

- [Jeremy] Four hours?

Nice.

Walk.

(playful music)

(Kendra laughs)

Are you walking the dog?

- So when we first got it,

she would walk towards the dog

and didn't understand she had to pull it.

- [Elise] It's gonna walk toward me if I--

- [Jeremy] Nice.

So Elise is trying to advance

to the next level in gymnastics.

- Yep.

- [Jeremy] This is one of the things

she was told to work on.

- Hand stand, flat back,

it's like a tree falling down. - Hand stand, flat backs.

- [Jeremy] Okay.

(whack)

- Our family is kind of switching up our morning routine

and getting some new chore systems into place.

We're needing the kids to be involved more

and this is an object lesson

that's gonna hopefully gonna explain to them more.

Alright guys, so this cup is me

and that water is all of my energy and strength, okay?

And these cups are everything that I need to do in a day.

Shall we see how far my energy lasts?

So let's say I need to start the day

with changing Janae's diaper.

That's not too hard.

Now I'm going to make some breakfast.

- [Caleb] A little harder.

- Now I need to teach the kids some school.

Uh-oh, there was some whining,

that takes more energy from Mom,

whenever there's whining, it takes more energy.

I need to plan the rest of the meals

for our family.

How about go grocery shopping,

is that something Mom does?

- Yeah. _ That's real easy.

- [Kendra] Then I put Janae down for a nap,

maybe feed Janae.

Uh-oh, how's my water doing guys?

- Not very well.

- [Kendra] Do I have very much left over?

Now it's time for some laundry.

How about cleaning up the kitchen?

- [Caleb] That might take away all of it.

- [Kendra] Well do you know what just happened?

- What? - What?

- [Kendra] Now some kids are arguing,

that takes extra energy.

Oh man, they're still arguing,

that takes more energy.

Now Mom's gonna clean the house,

clean up all the clutter, maybe the shoes.

- You're almost out.

- [Kendra] I know.

I gotta respond to some emails, do some work.

Oh no, what happened?

- Your energy ran out. - Your energy ran out.

- [Kendra] My energy ran out.

- So maybe we could do a few of that stuff

to take it away, so you still have a lot.

- [Kendra] You think so?

So see this water?

- Uh-huh. - Uh-huh.

- [Kendra] This is things that fill Mommy up, okay?

When Mommy gets to sleep at night, that helps.

When Mommy gets to exercise, that helps.

When Mommy's able to pray

and read her scriptures, that helps.

When Mommy has cheerful attitudes

from her kiddos, that helps.

- When they help with Nae Nae.

- [Kendra] Yep, when you guys help me out, that helps.

And then look what I have.

Now I have more water.

So now when you guys say hey Mom,

can we go to the park, well sure,

I've still got some water,

we can go to the park.

Mom, can we invite a friend over?

Yeah sure, I've got some extra water,

we can invite some friends over.

Hey Mom, can we make cookies?

Sure, no problem.

- Oh yeah, let's, we can make cookies!

- So now there's water left over.

So this analogy was about Mom,

but every single person only has so much strength.

They can only do so much.

What did you learn from that?

- I learned that the more we obey

and the less time we take from Mom,

the more fun stuff we get to do.

- [Kendra] As a family?

- And because Mom has way more energy.

- If you're losing your energy,

we should hop on and you'll get your energy back.

- When we obey,

there's more energy.

When we help you,

we can do more fun stuff.

- But if we disobey and we're whining,

then all your energy goes out

and we just kind of have a bad time of day.

(lively guitar music)

- [Kendra] So Laura's been talking to me today

about when she grows up.

What are you gonna do when you grow up Laura?

- You, you and you are gonna

be my parents when I grow up.

- [Kendra] Oh when you grow up we're gonna be your parents?

- Mmm-hmm.

- Me and my honey will be?

I want to remember when Laura grows up,

that at this stage, she calls your spouse, your honey.
