love your home! it’s so nice and cozy in the back of all your videos
Preach with slowing down the month before! My friend gave me that advice and I’m so glad I listened!
I needed this SO MUCH! Thank you so so much! Detaching my identity from my work is soooo needed! Thank you for talking about this! 💕
happy it resonated with ya!!
Mama to 3 girls.....this is perfect❤ For your changing table the changing pad cloths are nice. They are a waterproof, like an over sized burp cloth. They are fantastic for tinkle leaks and blowouts. Washable amd very handy to keep a pile of. Especially for coverage in public changing tables❤
so good to hear! thanks gal!!
What is your website
julesacree.com!
If it helps to know, sitting with our legs at a 90⁰ amgle is about the worst thing we can do and its why sitting causes so many lower back problems for people. Check out the "QOR360" chair. Its designed to not only keep your hips above your knees, keeping your hip flexors open, but it also pivots and you get a core workout from it. It's a lifesaver!
Wishing you all the best these next few weeks! ❤
thank you so much!
Anything based on the highest spiritual reality we can live, Love, is graced with permanence. The love you bring to everything you do is your job (& everything else) security & what makes you so very successful ❣️
love this! I'm working on a reflective video on how I babyproofed by creative service-based biz, and took an 8 month mat leave. the timing of watching this episode of yours is so perfect
would love to watch that!
This video was very informative. I wonder how you would create a spending budget with kids. My kids are 15 and 10. My oldest gets an allowance but of course still asks for additional money sometimes. My youngest will want things too. Those trips to Ralph's Ices, Starbuck's, and out to eat add up! Thank you.
guys, when you took her advice, remember she's well off...if you're not, it's not applicable to you.
I'm really glad you've decided to priorize time off. It's so rare to really get a full break, I believe it's critical to take those times when we can, and do it on our own terms. I'm currently on a 3-month health leave from work - I thought I'd want to engage periodically with work (by choice) and I've been surprised by how little I've wanted to, and how nourishing it's been to be 100% in control of how and when it happens. Your plans sound really holistic which doesn't surprise me at all!
we’ll miss you, jules! ❤❤❤ so excited for your new chapter!
Your mom is so cute. I'm so happy for your parents getting a gorgeous living room makeover.
I love how you give yourself so much flexibility around creativity and work when it comes to nurturing your life. ❤
'Life comes first'. I love that!
I randomly cried watching this because I'm sooo excited for you. I am on my period so that could be contributing but still LOL. ❤
Awww you’re so sweet 🥹💛🙏🏼
Thank you for being such a positive wave in our lives. I absolutely love all your experiences and how I get to learn through them. Wishing you all the best in this new journey - you will be a wonderful mom! ❤
🥹 wow thank you so much for the kind words 💛
you have the best and most calming energy - you're going to be the best mama!
Aw I appreciate that so much!
Soak it up 😢 it goes by so fast. My daughter is already 6 years old. So happy you’re taking time off and focus on your mental health!! Don’t be afraid to ask for help with postpartum depression if you feel down. I suffered with it so bad and I didn’t know how normal/common it was. Enjoy your baby! You’re going to be such a great mom💕☺️
Thank you for sharing! PPD is something I really want to keep an eye on so definitely prioritizing my healing as much as possible ~ Sending love 💛
Love to hear how you reverse engineered this, thank you for sharing your process with us! Heck yes to no rules and staying present :) wishing you a beautiful mat leave + enjoy this time as a new mama!
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 thank you chica
Have a blessed weekend Jules and whenever you posts a new vlog it's put a big smile on my face...😀😀💖💖
Thank you for this!
Blah blah blahhhhhh….. after Monday’s check in…. Blah bah blah… colors pause blah blah blah, blah blah
I would happily keep the real cherry wood furniture. This type is going to be super rare.
thank you for sharing your journey, I speak for myself, when I say that you can't always count on your parents experience and to be part of the experience in some way, is very informative and exciting! Thank you! PS: where did you buy your Apple Watch band?
My phone has only 724 photos. 27thousand is insane 😮
Great information 👍 I think anyone watching this or videos like this are ready to have a more simplified life.
What is the chair called?
Love it! 😍 i’m on my second trimester and also want to get all things ready and organized before I get too big and tired at the end lol - where is your dresser from? Thank you!❤
very smart! now that I'm 36 weeks, i am soooo glad it's done! my dresser is from west elm
nice asmr
THAT DOG IS SO CUTE ISTGGG😭😭
hehe thanks!
Do you not wear socks?
what's that?
@@julesacree Kinda like clothes for feets. You wear them under your shoes.
whats the name of that kalchi restaurant around 11:55?
Great at video. We just started sharing finances and I wanted to know how you navigate if one of you wants to go on a trip with friends that doesn’t include the other?
Vincenzo
Where did you get the chair??
Thank you for recommending Arc. I was tired of Chrome, but I didn't want to try anything else!
Vincenzo is masterpiece 😍😍😍
So cute! Are your glasses linked somewhere (from the raspberry tea)? 💕
As a woman who has a very heavy cycle . I stay away from white sheets like the plague. I prefer darker colored sheets for the same reason they tend to hide the stains you can’t get out. 😂
My favorites are Business proposal Duty after school King the land True beauty Queen of tears
Id that pink Floyd i looooooove pink Floyd
Moon lovers is also good I recommend it!
I had a lot of fun organizing for our first baby and just basked in it. It was more for me really but that was fine. You’ll probably reorganize many times as you and baby grow and evolve. 😊
Thank you, I’m going to Korea soon!! And I’m having doubts about taking a checked bag or not 😬 heard about possibilities of it getting lots but I want to bring some goodies home!!
Hi, can i please have the details of your the driver in jeju island? Or how to book one? Thanks
Hi! Check the description of my vid - his info is there :)
Got it. Thanks
I have used UpChoose with my son since birth! He’s 8 months old now. Have absolutely loved it.
Oh that’s great to hear!! I’m looking forward to trying it out. Seems worthwhile!
If you can’t breastfeed look into European formulas! Better ingredients. Certain things are banned in Europe that aren’t here. Just different standards than the FDA. Brands: Hipp Holle Kendamil. You’re gonna be such an amazing Momma! ❤❤❤
All formulas are completely safe and healthy
Jules, I’m beyond thrilled for you! I’m 25 weeks and it’s been the sweetest to watch your journey as you’re a little ahead of me. It’s kind of wild how similar our experience has been with the peace we’ve felt and how unexpected it is. So thrilled for you! ❤ curious which pacifier clip brand you have in the clip at 8:34? They’re so cute, didn’t see them in your Amazon storefront. Thanks so much, cheering you on! 🎉
Aw happy 25 weeks to you!! We got the clips as a gift but I’ve seen them on Amazon! Wishing you a smooth rest of your pregnancy & postpartum journey!
