1
00:00:01,266 --> 00:00:03,200
[man] Previously on
Little People, Big World...
2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,767
I think that, like, everything
that we went through
3
00:00:05,767 --> 00:00:08,000
definitely, like, puts things
into perspective.
4
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,867
When it comes to what I just
went through with the shunt
malfunction and all that,
5
00:00:11,867 --> 00:00:15,066
I feel like our kids are old
enough now that they
might be out of that.
6
00:00:15,066 --> 00:00:18,066
But, you know, the other shoe
can drop at any time.
7
00:00:18,066 --> 00:00:21,867
So, yeah, we'll take it one,
you know, day at a time.
8
00:00:21,867 --> 00:00:25,100
Now that we're getting
our home, we gotta
figure us out.
9
00:00:25,100 --> 00:00:26,300
But let's give it a little...
10
00:00:26,300 --> 00:00:29,000
-Let's give it a little
breathing room. [laughs]
-Okay.
11
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:32,600
I always thought,
well, once we have
the house in progress,
12
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,567
that was gonna be the moment
to really get serious about
13
00:00:35,567 --> 00:00:37,000
what our relationship
future is.
14
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,667
What's that hotel
we went to years ago where
every room is different?
15
00:00:40,667 --> 00:00:43,767
-You went there
with Amy, not me.
-Oh, I'm sorry.
16
00:00:43,767 --> 00:00:45,867
Get your girlfriends straight.
17
00:00:45,867 --> 00:00:48,000
Well, we'll see
how this fundraiser goes.
18
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,900
Amy and I are talking about
doing a charity event,
19
00:00:50,900 --> 00:00:52,266
Amy has in the past,
and now,
20
00:00:52,266 --> 00:00:54,367
I'm finally at that point
in life where I wanna start
21
00:00:54,367 --> 00:00:55,867
doing some more
charitable work.
22
00:00:55,867 --> 00:00:59,567
I think the biggest thing is,
um, do I wanna go down
this road again,
23
00:00:59,567 --> 00:01:02,400
having it at the farm,
and with them?
24
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,767
Matt offered the farm up to,
you know, host this.
25
00:01:05,767 --> 00:01:07,767
But Matt and I have history.
26
00:01:07,767 --> 00:01:10,800
And it wasn't
always pleasant.
And you,
27
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,634
you should be
a little more cautious.
28
00:01:19,467 --> 00:01:21,634
[upbeat music playing]
29
00:01:31,300 --> 00:01:34,266
Please be careful, okay?
30
00:01:34,266 --> 00:01:35,667
Okay, I've got it.
31
00:01:35,667 --> 00:01:39,567
One, two, three,
four, five...
32
00:01:39,567 --> 00:01:42,100
-[Zach] Ooh, but Lilah's
doing it with her hands up.
-[Tori] ...six, seven.
33
00:01:42,100 --> 00:01:43,467
Can I tell you a trick?
34
00:01:43,467 --> 00:01:47,967
It's easier to stand on
one foot if you pick a spot
on the ground.
35
00:01:47,967 --> 00:01:51,767
So, like, if I'm standing
right here, I might pick,
like, this spot right here.
36
00:01:51,767 --> 00:01:55,734
And you just stare at
that spot, and it
makes it easier.
37
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:01,967
-I'm doing it!
-Good job, J. Nice, dude.
38
00:02:02,367 --> 00:02:03,734
Hey, I have a plan.
39
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,166
You and Lilah
40
00:02:07,166 --> 00:02:08,834
should go out
in the garage...
41
00:02:09,667 --> 00:02:11,700
..and get
Mom's suitcase for her.
42
00:02:11,700 --> 00:02:13,200
-[Jackson speaking]
-[Zach] Lilah, help Jackson
43
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,367
go get Mom's suitcase.
44
00:02:14,367 --> 00:02:16,867
Thank you. That's so helpful.
45
00:02:16,867 --> 00:02:21,266
I recently had surgery
to replace a broken shunt.
46
00:02:21,266 --> 00:02:26,166
And I am still in recovery,
but I'm pretty much
back to 100%.
47
00:02:26,166 --> 00:02:28,133
It's been over a month
and I haven't had a migraine.
48
00:02:28,500 --> 00:02:29,667
Hallelujah.
49
00:02:29,667 --> 00:02:33,000
And so, now that Zach is
feeling better, doing better,
50
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:37,100
I'm going on a three-night
trip to California with
two of my girlfriends.
51
00:02:37,100 --> 00:02:40,367
You're gonna eat when you
wanna eat, you're gonna sleep
when you wanna sleep.
52
00:02:40,367 --> 00:02:41,767
[Tori] That sounds good to me.
53
00:02:42,700 --> 00:02:45,000
[Zach] Um, what do I need
to know while you're gone?
54
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,000
-Should we make a list?
-Make a list.
55
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,367
Come here, let's make a list.
Come here, Si-guy.
56
00:02:49,367 --> 00:02:52,266
[Zach] Tori did a lot while I
was in surgery and recovering,
57
00:02:52,266 --> 00:02:54,567
so she definitely
deserves this.
58
00:02:54,567 --> 00:02:56,467
I've never done this
before, so--
59
00:02:56,467 --> 00:02:59,333
Yeah, Tori's never
done just a girls' trip
like this before.
60
00:03:00,667 --> 00:03:02,467
I'm gonna start with food.
61
00:03:02,467 --> 00:03:07,033
Lasagna, okay?
I would say 350
62
00:03:07,700 --> 00:03:10,467
for 30 minutes.
63
00:03:10,467 --> 00:03:13,033
And then what else?
Homework.
64
00:03:14,166 --> 00:03:17,600
Okay?
Kindergarten pictures,
65
00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:22,467
do Jackson's hair.
66
00:03:22,467 --> 00:03:25,567
-Drop-off. Do you know when
drop-off and pick-up is?
-[Zach] Yeah, 3:10 p.m.
67
00:03:25,567 --> 00:03:28,266
-That's pick-up.
-Oh, drop-off. Um, 8 o'clock.
68
00:03:28,266 --> 00:03:30,533
-8:00 a.m. to 8:15 a.m.
-8:00 a.m. to 8:15 a.m.
69
00:03:35,367 --> 00:03:37,400
Do you know what time
to feed Si-Si bottles?
70
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,100
-[Zach] When he needs them.
-[laughs]
71
00:03:39,100 --> 00:03:41,066
He knows.
Thank you, that's a good one.
72
00:03:41,066 --> 00:03:46,000
Zach is a great dad, you know,
but I think that when you're,
like, alone, on your own
73
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:50,867
with three kids is exhausting.
I've done it a couple times
and it's hard, for sure.
74
00:03:50,867 --> 00:03:55,066
You're all on your own
with three kids, like,
no breaks.
75
00:03:55,066 --> 00:03:59,166
Cleaning any chance you get
would be greatly appreciated.
76
00:03:59,166 --> 00:04:04,166
-[Zach groans]
-Jackson's so good
at mopping the floors.
77
00:04:04,166 --> 00:04:07,767
I have zero expectations.
My clean is not the same
as Zach's clean.
78
00:04:07,767 --> 00:04:09,967
We grew up
in a very fun house.
79
00:04:09,967 --> 00:04:11,300
She doesn't even know
what a messy house is.
80
00:04:11,300 --> 00:04:12,967
Is our house not fun?
81
00:04:12,967 --> 00:04:15,867
Uh, there are times when
I feel like we can't
82
00:04:15,867 --> 00:04:17,400
-live in our house.
-Tigers everywhere.
83
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,100
'Cause she'll clean it
and then we just can't use it.
84
00:04:19,100 --> 00:04:21,200
And then I go in the kitchen
to make a sandwich
85
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,800
and she's like,
"You know, mess up my--
I just cleaned the kitchen."
86
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:28,300
I'm like, "It's a kitchen!
It's not like I'm, like, doing
an art project in here."
87
00:04:28,300 --> 00:04:31,767
Like, I'm using the kitchen
how it's supposed to be used.
88
00:04:31,767 --> 00:04:35,934
Oh, also, N-O-T-E-S.
Um, they're up.
89
00:04:36,266 --> 00:04:37,967
Okay.
90
00:04:37,967 --> 00:04:41,100
I prewrote Jackson some notes
to put into his lunchbox.
91
00:04:41,100 --> 00:04:43,467
And Zach is going to put them
in his lunchbox
92
00:04:43,467 --> 00:04:45,000
-for school.
-Good to know.
93
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,266
[Tori] Wait,
how many days am I gone?
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday.
94
00:04:48,266 --> 00:04:51,967
[Zach] Tori writes notes
for Jackson in his lunch
pail every day.
95
00:04:51,967 --> 00:04:53,600
And one time, Tori,
I don't know what
you were doing.
96
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,166
-I stopped because he never
brought it up.
-Yeah.
97
00:04:56,166 --> 00:04:57,467
He never said
anything about it.
98
00:04:57,467 --> 00:04:59,367
So I thought,
"Oh, he's indifferent.
He doesn't care about it."
99
00:04:59,367 --> 00:05:03,200
And I was making his lunch
that day, and he's over there
writing himself
100
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,767
-his own note,
then he puts, like--
-What did he write on it?
101
00:05:05,767 --> 00:05:08,367
-He wrote, like,
"I love you, Jackson."
-[exhales deeply]
102
00:05:08,367 --> 00:05:10,767
Like, he wrote it
like it was from Mom
103
00:05:10,767 --> 00:05:13,967
and puts it in his lunch pail,
okay? And so,
104
00:05:13,967 --> 00:05:16,667
I asked him, "What are
you doing?" He goes,
"All the kids have notes."
105
00:05:16,667 --> 00:05:19,400
-Ah.
-And so, like, he wants to
read the note with everyone.
106
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,400
And so we have
continued to do that.
107
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,400
He'll be in therapy for that
when he's 18.
108
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,867
Like, "My mom didn't write me
a lunch note and I had to
write it myself."
109
00:05:26,867 --> 00:05:29,667
Are you ready
for three against one?
110
00:05:29,667 --> 00:05:31,600
-It's not against,
it's three--
-Three on one?
111
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:35,767
-I've been alone with the kids
for 24 hours, 48 hours.
-[Tori] Three kids?
112
00:05:35,767 --> 00:05:37,266
All three kids, yeah.
How long?
113
00:05:37,266 --> 00:05:39,734
I don't think you've been
alone with the three kids.
114
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,867
I've never watched all
the kids overnight like this,
but there's no nervousness.
115
00:05:44,867 --> 00:05:47,266
"It's not gonna be hard.
It's gonna be so easy, yeah."
116
00:05:47,266 --> 00:05:49,900
-[laughs] No, it's--
-"Tori doesn't know anything."
117
00:05:49,900 --> 00:05:52,100
[both laughing]
118
00:05:52,100 --> 00:05:53,600
[Tori] Are you
gonna miss me?
119
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,900
[kisses] I'm gonna miss you.
120
00:05:55,900 --> 00:05:58,734
J, you gotta keep this house
running while I'm gone, okay?
121
00:06:00,166 --> 00:06:01,967
Make sure Dad does
what he's supposed to do?
122
00:06:03,667 --> 00:06:06,967
-And remember, Mom loves you.
-[Zach] No TV right now.
123
00:06:06,967 --> 00:06:11,300
Managing all the kids when
you're so used to it being
a two-parent situation,
124
00:06:11,300 --> 00:06:13,066
I'm not, like, nervous,
it's just,
125
00:06:13,066 --> 00:06:17,300
it is like, okay, you know,
you're diving in for three
days of, like, who knows what?
126
00:06:17,300 --> 00:06:20,133
I mean, a lot of things
can happen in 72 hours.
127
00:06:22,300 --> 00:06:24,467
We'll see if that
one happens.
128
00:06:24,467 --> 00:06:26,567
Cleaning. What is that?
What is that?
129
00:06:26,567 --> 00:06:29,767
You don't know.
You're the one
who makes the mess!
130
00:06:37,667 --> 00:06:39,133
Thank you. [chuckles]
131
00:06:40,066 --> 00:06:42,667
Oh, my God, it's just
pouring down rain.
132
00:06:42,667 --> 00:06:47,166
-[Amy] It's a drizzle.
-I've lived here all my life
and I still hate it.
133
00:06:47,166 --> 00:06:48,567
-Hi.
-[woman] Hi, how are ya?
134
00:06:48,567 --> 00:06:49,867
-Two for lunch?
-[Amy] Yes.
135
00:06:49,867 --> 00:06:51,567
-Please.
-All right,
have you down here.
136
00:06:51,567 --> 00:06:52,767
-All right, great, thank you.
-All right, thank you.
137
00:06:52,767 --> 00:06:53,800
You're welcome.
138
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:55,867
-[Amy] It's been a while
since I've been here.
-Yeah.
139
00:06:55,867 --> 00:06:58,100
[Amy] I forget
about this place.
140
00:06:58,100 --> 00:07:00,667
-So anyway--
-All right, well, it's good
to see you. It's been a while.
141
00:07:00,667 --> 00:07:04,166
-Yeah, I know.
It really has, it really has.
-Wow, what's new with you?
142
00:07:04,166 --> 00:07:07,000
-Well, Zachary.
I told you about Zachary.
-That was scary.
143
00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,000
I'm so glad that,
you know, he's over that.
144
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,000
He's doing so much better now,
the kids were great.
145
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,867
But I'll tell you, it doesn't
matter what grandkids
146
00:07:14,867 --> 00:07:17,000
-I'm with, they test you.
-[laughs]
147
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:21,667
Sometimes you never know,
after surgery, how you will
recuperate and bounce back,
148
00:07:21,667 --> 00:07:23,967
and thankfully,
Zach is doing fantastic.
149
00:07:23,967 --> 00:07:27,300
I just hope he doesn't have to
have another surgery
for a long time.
150
00:07:27,300 --> 00:07:31,166
-How's the bromance going
with Chris and Matt?
-Oh, Lord above.
151
00:07:31,166 --> 00:07:34,367
So, Chris had
a guys' time with Matt
152
00:07:34,367 --> 00:07:38,800
-at the little cabin that Matt
built out on the farm.
-Oh, wow.
153
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,867
-I don't know what to think
about it, really.
-Your whole voice
154
00:07:41,867 --> 00:07:46,033
-tone changed when
you're talking about it.
-[both laugh]
155
00:07:46,300 --> 00:07:48,166
Well, I mean,
156
00:07:48,166 --> 00:07:50,800
I kind of feel stupid
still having that
157
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,166
-intense not liking it.
-Uh-huh.
158
00:07:55,300 --> 00:07:57,400
What do you say to that?
It's like,
159
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:00,967
the only thing I tell him is,
like, don't become
best friends,
160
00:08:00,967 --> 00:08:05,266
-okay? That can't happen.
-Yeah. Yeah.
161
00:08:05,266 --> 00:08:10,266
When the guy you're married to
and your ex get together,
I don't know,
162
00:08:10,266 --> 00:08:13,634
it doesn't even have to be
bad vibes or anything,
it's just
163
00:08:14,266 --> 00:08:16,200
weird to me. [laughs]
164
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,500
But, you know, I often
remind him of the fact that,
165
00:08:19,500 --> 00:08:21,800
you know, hanging out
with Matt, it's like,
it's okay,
166
00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:26,500
but it just still feels
a little strange, a little
awkward, a little like, "Hmm."
167
00:08:26,500 --> 00:08:29,467
Just remember
he is my ex. [chuckles]
168
00:08:29,467 --> 00:08:32,900
So what are some things
you wanna do this spring?
169
00:08:32,900 --> 00:08:37,000
I feel so disconnected
from people, like, life.
170
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,667
Like, we used to put
on charity foundations,
and that kept us involved.
171
00:08:40,667 --> 00:08:44,367
So, I don't know.
Doing something on
a much smaller scale.
172
00:08:44,367 --> 00:08:45,667
Yeah. That's doable.
173
00:08:45,667 --> 00:08:48,467
-To kind of just
test those waters.
-Mmm-hmm.
174
00:08:48,467 --> 00:08:51,867
Chris and I, you know,
we're thinking about,
as we get older in life,
175
00:08:51,867 --> 00:08:55,066
to maybe give back,
maybe put on a
176
00:08:55,066 --> 00:08:56,800
small, little
charity function.
177
00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:02,667
And so, the charity we're
supporting is Dwarf Athletic
Association of America.
178
00:09:02,667 --> 00:09:07,300
You know, we mentioned it to
Matt and Caryn that we were,
you know, doing a fundraiser,
179
00:09:07,300 --> 00:09:10,867
so Matt offered the farm up
to, uh, host the event.
180
00:09:10,867 --> 00:09:15,266
And they also agreed,
both he and Caryn,
agreed to help out.
181
00:09:15,266 --> 00:09:19,266
-Are Matt and Caryn
participating in this, too?
-Oh, yeah, I mean,
182
00:09:19,266 --> 00:09:23,400
-the barn is an ideal place.
-Yeah.
183
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,967
Chris and I are kind
of heading this up,
but we're definitely needing,
184
00:09:26,967 --> 00:09:28,166
you know,
Matt and Caryn's help.
185
00:09:28,166 --> 00:09:31,400
And, uh, we do have to
meet up with them again.
186
00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,300
Just to really finalize
on things, you know,
there's a lot of details.
187
00:09:35,300 --> 00:09:37,600
So, it's just making sure that
everyone understands
188
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,200
what are those details,
and can we pull it off?
189
00:09:40,200 --> 00:09:42,166
What do you think about
the barn?
190
00:09:42,166 --> 00:09:44,800
Well, he's gonna
wanna be in charge,
191
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,800
-that's his farm now.
-Yeah.
192
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,567
-Who's gonna be in charge?
-Me. Me.
193
00:09:49,567 --> 00:09:51,800
You can't have too many cooks
in the kitchen.
194
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:53,433
But it's his house,
not yours.
195
00:09:53,767 --> 00:09:55,000
No.
196
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:57,667
-I am running the show.
-Girlfriend,
197
00:09:57,667 --> 00:10:00,834
-let me tell you something.
That is not your farm.
-No.
198
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,800
Absolutely, he's in charge
of the location,
199
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:07,767
but when it comes to
the charity and how
it's gonna be run,
200
00:10:07,767 --> 00:10:09,367
that's me, falls on me.
201
00:10:09,367 --> 00:10:11,867
It's not that I don't wanna
hear Matt's ideas,
202
00:10:11,867 --> 00:10:15,166
but if I'm to do this,
we'll do it my way.
203
00:10:15,166 --> 00:10:18,400
And if you don't wanna do it,
great, don't do it.
204
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,567
It's no sweat off my back,
I will find something else.
205
00:10:21,567 --> 00:10:23,400
Now you have Caryn,
206
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:27,667
-who's been on that farm
forever managing--
-No, when we talked, she said,
207
00:10:27,667 --> 00:10:31,667
"I don't wanna head anything
up. You just tell me what
to do." Or whatever she said.
208
00:10:31,667 --> 00:10:33,900
-Interesting.
-Yeah.
209
00:10:33,900 --> 00:10:37,300
-Just tell her what to do.
-[laughs] Just tell her
what to do.
210
00:10:37,300 --> 00:10:42,367
-Well, yeah.
-[both laughing]
211
00:10:42,367 --> 00:10:43,400
[woman] Coming up...
212
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,100
[Zach] Jackson,
we've gotta
hurry, okay?
213
00:10:46,100 --> 00:10:49,767
Taking care of the kids is,
you're first up, last to bed.
214
00:10:49,767 --> 00:10:51,500
I know, hang on.
I'm trying to wipe the poop.
215
00:10:51,500 --> 00:10:53,367
You're always on.
216
00:10:53,367 --> 00:10:55,433
Okay, hold on.
Just hold on.
217
00:10:57,467 --> 00:10:58,567
[man] And later...
218
00:10:58,567 --> 00:10:59,867
[Caryn] Charity event.
219
00:10:59,867 --> 00:11:02,767
-We've got a date blocked out.
-Well, from what you told me,
220
00:11:02,767 --> 00:11:04,367
there's no other
dates available.
221
00:11:04,367 --> 00:11:06,567
They were very sparse, yes.
222
00:11:06,567 --> 00:11:08,867
Well, is there any way that
you can check these dates?
223
00:11:08,867 --> 00:11:11,867
You put a stressed-out Amy
and a stressed-out Matt
224
00:11:11,867 --> 00:11:14,367
-in the same, you know,
one-mile radius...
-In the same box.
225
00:11:14,367 --> 00:11:16,834
-...there's a combustion
of smoke.
-[laughs]
226
00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:22,734
[upbeat music playing]
227
00:11:31,700 --> 00:11:33,467
[Zach speaking]
228
00:11:33,467 --> 00:11:36,667
Just while Tori's gone.
Just to, like, get
ahead of myself.
229
00:11:36,667 --> 00:11:39,100
Start with some breakfast,
when they're up, we can eat,
230
00:11:39,100 --> 00:11:41,467
and then get them
ready for school.
231
00:11:41,467 --> 00:11:43,767
Forty-five minutes to roll.
232
00:11:43,767 --> 00:11:48,567
Tori left yesterday morning,
and, uh, first day and night
went good.
233
00:11:48,567 --> 00:11:52,767
But yeah, just taking care of
the kids is like you're
first up, last to bed.
234
00:11:52,767 --> 00:11:55,266
You're always on.
This morning, we have
a tight schedule.
235
00:11:55,266 --> 00:11:57,367
Jackson needs to be
at school by 8:00 a.m.
236
00:11:57,367 --> 00:12:01,367
And, uh, we need to be out
the door in 45 minutes
or we're gonna be late.
237
00:12:01,367 --> 00:12:02,867
And I still have
a lot to do.
238
00:12:02,867 --> 00:12:06,100
I gotta feed the kids,
pack Jackson's lunch,
get them dressed.
239
00:12:06,100 --> 00:12:10,166
I gotta do Jackson's hair,
because it's picture day,
get them all in the car,
240
00:12:10,166 --> 00:12:11,233
but we'll make it.
241
00:12:14,166 --> 00:12:16,867
I usually do, like,
a 14-egg scramble thing.
242
00:12:16,867 --> 00:12:19,900
If Jackson has
his normal burrito,
I have my normal burrito,
243
00:12:19,900 --> 00:12:23,967
Josiah has his normal and
Lilah has her normal, we'll
put some damage in this.
244
00:12:25,166 --> 00:12:27,767
I've always kind of made
a big batch of scrambled eggs.
245
00:12:27,767 --> 00:12:29,767
Eggs kind of take a while,
and if I'm gonna make eggs,
246
00:12:29,767 --> 00:12:32,467
might as well just
pile them all in there.
247
00:12:32,467 --> 00:12:35,467
Tori writes little notes
for Jackson every morning,
248
00:12:35,467 --> 00:12:38,367
she prewrote some notes
to put in the lunch thing.
249
00:12:38,367 --> 00:12:40,066
I need to remember to do that.
250
00:12:40,066 --> 00:12:43,767
The notes are, like,
super important to her,
so I gotta remember today.
251
00:12:43,767 --> 00:12:46,266
Or in my mind,
he'll just go about his day.
252
00:12:46,266 --> 00:12:49,700
In Tori's mind, in Mom's mind,
he'll be devastated.
253
00:12:49,700 --> 00:12:53,867
Worst day ever,
all the other kids will think
Jackson has the worst mom.
254
00:12:53,867 --> 00:12:55,000
And blah, blah, blah.
255
00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,667
Hey, dude. You want me
to make you a burrito?
256
00:12:58,667 --> 00:12:59,834
That sound good?
257
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:02,066
After Jackson's done
with school,
258
00:13:02,066 --> 00:13:04,100
we're gonna pick him up
and we're all gonna
go shopping
259
00:13:04,100 --> 00:13:06,900
for a couch for the new shop.
260
00:13:06,900 --> 00:13:11,066
That'll go good, like, I'm a
quick shopper. So I think
it'll be good with the kids.
261
00:13:12,567 --> 00:13:16,233
Oh, hi. You're a mood.
262
00:13:17,266 --> 00:13:18,467
Are you okay?
263
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:20,634
Do you want yogurt?
264
00:13:25,100 --> 00:13:26,066
[Zach] Yeah?
265
00:13:27,166 --> 00:13:29,667
[Zach] Do you
have poo-poos?
266
00:13:29,667 --> 00:13:33,166
Okay, hang on. Have a yogurt
and then we'll take
your diaper off, okay?
267
00:13:34,166 --> 00:13:35,867
Let me get
Jackson set up, okay?
268
00:13:40,767 --> 00:13:42,767
They're up.
269
00:13:42,767 --> 00:13:44,634
All right, come on, Lilah.
270
00:13:46,300 --> 00:13:48,567
Jackson and Lilah both
woke up kind of moody.
271
00:13:48,567 --> 00:13:50,266
That particular morning,
I wasn't
272
00:13:50,266 --> 00:13:52,867
quite doing everything exactly
how Mom does things.
273
00:13:52,867 --> 00:13:57,934
Mom has a little bit more
of a graceful Mom-ness,
cute little morning.
274
00:13:58,567 --> 00:14:01,367
Dad has a rigid,
like, go, go, go.
275
00:14:01,367 --> 00:14:03,333
Three minutes, you gotta go
get dressed, okay?
276
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:06,667
Time is of essence.
277
00:14:06,667 --> 00:14:08,100
Jackson?
278
00:14:08,100 --> 00:14:10,934
Are you-- Okay, bud,
you gotta hurry, okay?
279
00:14:16,367 --> 00:14:18,266
I know, hang on.
I'm trying to wipe the poop.
280
00:14:18,266 --> 00:14:19,800
All right, Jackson.
You ready to roll?
281
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:23,634
Let's go do your hair.
Lilah, find your shoes.
282
00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:27,233
What?
283
00:14:29,467 --> 00:14:32,500
[laughs] Yeah? Why?
'Cause you don't wanna
do your hair?
284
00:14:32,500 --> 00:14:34,867
-Yeah.
-Hold still.
285
00:14:34,867 --> 00:14:37,767
-Ow. Ow.
-I know, I'm sorry.
Cover your eyes.
286
00:14:37,767 --> 00:14:41,967
I'm more efficient than Tori
just because I'll be able
to let things go.
287
00:14:43,567 --> 00:14:44,967
Tori can't let things go.
288
00:14:44,967 --> 00:14:48,367
-That get in your eyes?
[chuckles] I'm sorry.
-Yeah.
289
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,266
[Zach] Hold on. Just hold on.
290
00:14:51,266 --> 00:14:54,367
His hair's not done,
but we're running late.
Get in the car.
291
00:14:54,367 --> 00:14:57,100
You have undies and pants on
and shoes, get in the car.
292
00:14:57,100 --> 00:15:00,967
Tori's get in the car,
but in a certain way, you
have to look a certain way.
293
00:15:00,967 --> 00:15:02,967
And we have to do things
a certain way.
294
00:15:02,967 --> 00:15:04,033
Where are you going?
295
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:06,567
Me? Get in the car.
296
00:15:06,567 --> 00:15:10,066
I packed you a bigger lunch.
I gave you a whole sandwich
instead of a half.
297
00:15:11,266 --> 00:15:12,900
[Jackson speaking]
298
00:15:12,900 --> 00:15:15,767
[Zach] Well, you don't have
to eat the whole thing.
299
00:15:15,767 --> 00:15:17,767
Lilah, get in your seat.
300
00:15:17,767 --> 00:15:19,066
Hey, Jackson!
301
00:15:22,100 --> 00:15:24,100
I'm gonna help you.
302
00:15:24,100 --> 00:15:27,467
I'm more efficient, but I also
let a lot-- My quality
isn't as good.
303
00:15:27,467 --> 00:15:30,533
Tori's quality is very high,
no efficiency.
304
00:15:30,767 --> 00:15:31,867
All right.
305
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,233
[Zach] Hey, Lilah.
306
00:15:49,166 --> 00:15:50,533
Oh, my gosh.
307
00:15:51,700 --> 00:15:53,266
I forgot the note.
308
00:15:53,266 --> 00:15:57,667
I forgot it. [laughs]
He'll get a note tomorrow.
309
00:15:57,667 --> 00:15:59,634
[crying]
310
00:16:00,467 --> 00:16:02,333
[sighs]
311
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,567
[Caryn] Shut the front door.
312
00:16:15,567 --> 00:16:18,000
-Are you kidding me?
[chuckles]
-[Matt laughs]
313
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,467
-[Cary] It's,
like, half built!
-[Matt] Yeah. Oh, I know.
314
00:16:21,266 --> 00:16:23,467
-Um--
-[Caryn] This is so cool!
315
00:16:23,467 --> 00:16:25,266
-[Matt] Come check it out.
-[Caryn] I'm pretty shocked.
316
00:16:25,266 --> 00:16:27,867
[Matt] If you
take off for a week,
that's what happens.
317
00:16:27,867 --> 00:16:30,266
[Caryn] This is, like, crazy.
318
00:16:31,100 --> 00:16:32,867
[Matt] Caryn got back
late last night.
319
00:16:32,867 --> 00:16:37,000
She was down
in Arizona visiting her folks
and checking in on my mom.
320
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:41,867
I decided it was best if
I stayed up here and kept tabs
on the house build.
321
00:16:41,867 --> 00:16:46,300
Look at this nice, wide
hallway. I love the size
of these hallways.
322
00:16:46,300 --> 00:16:49,100
I really love
the back of the house.
323
00:16:49,100 --> 00:16:53,166
-Yep, the whole layout
and plan is really...
-Amazing.
324
00:16:53,166 --> 00:16:55,200
...pretty, pretty amazing.
325
00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,000
When those walls, you know,
326
00:16:57,000 --> 00:16:59,400
start going up,
it's very exciting.
327
00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,266
'Cause you start
to take shape.
328
00:17:01,266 --> 00:17:02,567
It makes it all very real.
329
00:17:02,567 --> 00:17:04,667
So this is the door
to our bathroom.
330
00:17:04,667 --> 00:17:07,867
-[Caryn] Wow. What is that?
-[Matt] That's my
sunken shower.
331
00:17:07,867 --> 00:17:11,367
-So that it's no steps.
-[Caryn] Nice.
332
00:17:11,367 --> 00:17:14,767
I came back, I could not
believe the advancement
of this house.
333
00:17:14,767 --> 00:17:18,367
Matt had sent me a couple
pictures and I could hear
the excitement in his voice,
334
00:17:18,367 --> 00:17:20,000
and seeing
335
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:25,367
this dream, you know, really
start to take shape. That was
very exciting for me.
336
00:17:25,367 --> 00:17:27,600
Wait, you left the bar in.
337
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:33,734
[laughs] Sorry, I made a call.
I had to make decisions
while you were gone.
338
00:17:36,367 --> 00:17:40,500
I mean, I don't think they
were necessary, but if they
make him happy, then--
339
00:17:40,500 --> 00:17:43,066
I just know that I keep
him in check a little bit.
340
00:17:43,066 --> 00:17:46,000
I know that this was
Amy's role for a long time.
341
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,266
You know, as he's running
full force across the street,
342
00:17:48,266 --> 00:17:51,567
she's leaning out
and kind of trying
to get him from,
343
00:17:51,567 --> 00:17:53,000
you know,
having a car hit him.
344
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:58,900
You do have to have some
boundaries, so it's almost
the voice of reason?
345
00:17:58,900 --> 00:18:01,967
This isn't lined up with that.
Does this wall come out
that far?
346
00:18:01,967 --> 00:18:05,800
-No, the wall's back here.
I could put a rack here.
-That's what I'm thinking.
347
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,367
-Yeah.
-Like, you could totally...
348
00:18:07,367 --> 00:18:09,667
[Matt]
Put little cereal boxes,
bread, things like that.
349
00:18:09,667 --> 00:18:13,767
So, if we wanted to.
That's a decision
we'll make downstream.
350
00:18:16,100 --> 00:18:18,200
I think my
351
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,467
preferences that, certain
things that I want
352
00:18:20,467 --> 00:18:22,000
will probably come into
the decorating.
353
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,867
That's where
we'll have a struggle.
354
00:18:23,867 --> 00:18:27,400
-Our tastes have always been
similar but not exact.
-[Matt laughs]
355
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,667
When I go for too much
rustic, there's gonna
be some friction.
356
00:18:30,667 --> 00:18:34,266
Oh, boy. [laughs]
357
00:18:34,266 --> 00:18:35,867
[Caryn] How do you
like the bunk room?
358
00:18:35,867 --> 00:18:39,367
-Do you-- Is it?
-I like it. It's great.
It's perfect size.
359
00:18:39,367 --> 00:18:42,600
I'm real excited about this
house because there's gonna
be a bunk room,
360
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,166
so when the grandkids
361
00:18:44,166 --> 00:18:48,867
come over, they're gonna see
that there's plenty of space
for them to hang out.
362
00:18:48,867 --> 00:18:52,967
Matt always had a vision where
he wanted to be able to sit
between the bunkbeds
363
00:18:52,967 --> 00:18:56,100
and read a story to all
the grandkids before
they went to bed.
364
00:18:56,100 --> 00:18:57,500
-Oh.
-And that's just what
we're gonna do.
365
00:18:57,500 --> 00:18:59,867
So that, hopefully,
will happen.
366
00:18:59,867 --> 00:19:04,667
-I'm so impressed at
how far you got it.
-Yeah, thank you.
367
00:19:04,667 --> 00:19:06,166
I'm not raising a family.
368
00:19:06,166 --> 00:19:08,967
Now these are grandkids,
they may or may not--
They all live fairly close.
369
00:19:08,967 --> 00:19:11,100
I mean, Zach and Tori are
kind of an hour away,
370
00:19:11,100 --> 00:19:14,867
but I'm thinking
that, you know,
Grandpa might get some
371
00:19:14,867 --> 00:19:17,667
more babysitting duties,
and if they need to
stay overnight,
372
00:19:17,667 --> 00:19:21,667
I wanna be able to
facilitate them comfortably
in this bunk room.
373
00:19:21,667 --> 00:19:24,100
Well, is this
all pretty exciting?
374
00:19:24,100 --> 00:19:27,100
This is very,
very overwhelming actually.
375
00:19:27,100 --> 00:19:31,667
I honestly wasn't thinking
it was gonna happen,
so I'm very proud of you.
376
00:19:31,667 --> 00:19:34,467
[Matt] Amy and I always had
plans to build a big house.
377
00:19:34,467 --> 00:19:38,600
And then we realized that
the family was growing.
We didn't have time
378
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:42,967
to do another big house.
So we remodeled
the farm house.
379
00:19:42,967 --> 00:19:45,367
At that time,
Amy and I were a team.
380
00:19:45,367 --> 00:19:49,900
But, you know, things change,
and, uh, life is that way.
381
00:19:49,900 --> 00:19:52,667
-Come look at
the rest of the house.
-[Caryn] Okay.
382
00:19:52,667 --> 00:19:54,467
I think Caryn and I are...
383
00:19:54,467 --> 00:19:55,800
She's a great partner
and I think
384
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,567
that things
are all coming together
now that the house is,
385
00:19:58,567 --> 00:20:00,900
you know, well on its way.
386
00:20:00,900 --> 00:20:03,166
And this is
our bedroom door.
387
00:20:03,166 --> 00:20:07,000
[Caryn] Aren't you supposed
to, like, carry me across
the threshold or something?
388
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,567
-[laughs] Watch me crumble.
-Oh, my gosh, snap.
389
00:20:09,567 --> 00:20:12,867
-Look at our view. Look at
the view from the bedroom.
-[Caryn] Stop it.
390
00:20:12,867 --> 00:20:16,800
I think I'm gonna cry.
That is so beautiful.
391
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,800
[Matt] I'm feeling very happy
that it's happening.
392
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:23,166
You start kind of realizing
that this is gonna be a room
393
00:20:23,166 --> 00:20:24,166
that you're gonna spend
394
00:20:24,166 --> 00:20:25,100
the rest of your life in.
395
00:20:25,100 --> 00:20:26,333
It's dramatic.
396
00:20:26,767 --> 00:20:29,667
[Caryn] Wow. You did it!
397
00:20:29,667 --> 00:20:32,166
-Are you happy? Yeah.
-Yeah! This was your vision.
398
00:20:32,166 --> 00:20:35,867
I think the house is just,
it's just a normal
399
00:20:35,867 --> 00:20:40,867
step in the process
of where we wanna be together.
400
00:20:40,867 --> 00:20:43,300
-Yeah.
-So, this will just
sort of be the next step
401
00:20:43,300 --> 00:20:45,166
in our evolution
of our relationship,
402
00:20:45,166 --> 00:20:46,567
in our future,
403
00:20:46,567 --> 00:20:48,667
and we've talked
about it forever.
404
00:20:48,667 --> 00:20:50,300
So, I'm excited about it.
405
00:20:50,300 --> 00:20:51,266
Are you?
406
00:20:51,266 --> 00:20:53,867
Yeah. I'm very excited
about that. Yes.
407
00:20:53,867 --> 00:20:56,433
-I'm glad
you're happy about it.
-[Caryn] I love it!
408
00:20:58,300 --> 00:20:59,400
[woman] Coming up...
409
00:21:01,567 --> 00:21:03,100
Jackson and Lilah definitely
are getting to that age
410
00:21:03,100 --> 00:21:04,767
where they're trying
to push each other's buttons.
411
00:21:05,100 --> 00:21:06,200
No!
412
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:07,600
-[Zach] Lilah, Lilah!
-[Lilah screaming and crying]
413
00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:09,266
[Zach] Jackson, Jackson!
414
00:21:09,266 --> 00:21:11,000
Guys, just chill
for a second.
415
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,066
-[Lilah crying]
-Hey, hey, hey.
416
00:21:13,900 --> 00:21:14,867
Hey!
417
00:21:15,700 --> 00:21:17,333
Okay. Let's go!
418
00:21:21,367 --> 00:21:24,333
[upbeat music playing]
419
00:21:33,100 --> 00:21:35,367
[Zach] All right. Here we are.
420
00:21:35,367 --> 00:21:37,300
Let's see who finds
the best couch.
421
00:21:37,300 --> 00:21:40,066
We're gonna ask them,
do they have cheap couches?
422
00:21:40,767 --> 00:21:42,567
Tori's still
on her girls' trip.
423
00:21:42,567 --> 00:21:45,200
Um, so it's just
me and the kids,
and today we're gonna...
424
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:47,166
I'm gonna take the kids
furniture shopping.
425
00:21:47,166 --> 00:21:48,266
I don't take all three of them
426
00:21:48,266 --> 00:21:50,467
out in the world
like this often.
427
00:21:50,467 --> 00:21:53,166
It's not our first,
but it's pretty close
to being our first.
428
00:21:55,467 --> 00:21:57,066
I'm not quite sure
how things are gonna go.
429
00:21:57,066 --> 00:21:58,700
It'd definitely be easier
with two parents.
430
00:21:58,700 --> 00:22:00,300
But it's not like
you're trying to shop,
431
00:22:00,300 --> 00:22:02,266
you know, to couch stores.
432
00:22:02,266 --> 00:22:04,467
So, I hope we'll be okay.
433
00:22:04,467 --> 00:22:06,467
Let's go see what they have.
434
00:22:06,467 --> 00:22:08,867
Today we're just
looking at some couches.
435
00:22:08,867 --> 00:22:12,100
Um, I wanna get a couch
upstairs in the shop.
436
00:22:12,100 --> 00:22:14,266
I think I have to do it
before we get our doors in
437
00:22:14,266 --> 00:22:15,567
'cause it's not gonna fit.
438
00:22:15,567 --> 00:22:17,066
So, I think anything--
439
00:22:18,667 --> 00:22:21,467
Okay. Yeah. Okay, okay.
440
00:22:21,467 --> 00:22:22,967
-Um--
-[Jackson speaking]
441
00:22:22,967 --> 00:22:24,033
[Zach] Yeah?
442
00:22:26,900 --> 00:22:28,800
Ooh! Look at this one
straight ahead, bud.
443
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:29,867
Do you like this one?
444
00:22:31,300 --> 00:22:32,266
This one good?
445
00:22:32,767 --> 00:22:34,266
[Jackson speaking]
446
00:22:34,266 --> 00:22:35,934
Should we call
it good? Done?
447
00:22:37,100 --> 00:22:38,133
Let's see how much it is.
448
00:22:39,300 --> 00:22:41,166
Jiminy crickets!
449
00:22:41,166 --> 00:22:42,867
Tori and me do not
have the same taste,
450
00:22:42,867 --> 00:22:45,667
and so, uh,
sometimes it's easier
just to pick something out
451
00:22:45,667 --> 00:22:47,266
when Tori's gone.
452
00:22:47,266 --> 00:22:50,467
Tori just brings
a lot of extra to shopping.
453
00:22:50,467 --> 00:22:53,967
Extra style, taste,
expense, opinions.
454
00:22:53,967 --> 00:22:55,200
Tori's probably
not gonna like it
455
00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:56,467
because I picked it out.
[laughs]
456
00:22:56,467 --> 00:22:58,667
But is she gonna
absolutely reject it
457
00:22:58,667 --> 00:23:00,300
or will she tolerate it?
458
00:23:00,300 --> 00:23:01,300
You know what I'm saying?
459
00:23:01,300 --> 00:23:03,667
That's the thought process
in my head. [laughs]
460
00:23:03,667 --> 00:23:04,667
What are you doing?
461
00:23:04,667 --> 00:23:06,266
Are you supposed to be
standing on furniture
462
00:23:06,266 --> 00:23:07,333
with your shoes?
463
00:23:07,867 --> 00:23:09,033
I wonder what this is.
464
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:11,467
Do you know where
the tag is, Jackson?
465
00:23:16,300 --> 00:23:17,266
[Zach] What?
466
00:23:18,166 --> 00:23:19,166
That's okay.
467
00:23:23,867 --> 00:23:25,100
Jackson and Lilah
love each other,
468
00:23:25,100 --> 00:23:26,300
but they definitely
are getting to that age
469
00:23:26,300 --> 00:23:28,100
where they're trying
to push each other's buttons.
470
00:23:28,100 --> 00:23:29,800
Anytime we go anywhere,
sometimes, like,
471
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,367
say I did wanna stop
and look at a tag
for a second,
472
00:23:32,367 --> 00:23:35,066
it's like, "Guys just chill
for a second," you know?
473
00:23:35,066 --> 00:23:38,600
They just know to...
Dad's paying attention
to something other than us.
474
00:23:38,600 --> 00:23:41,033
Therefore, cause chaos.
[laughs]
475
00:23:41,567 --> 00:23:43,233
Hey, look at me.
476
00:23:43,467 --> 00:23:44,567
Chill.
477
00:23:44,567 --> 00:23:45,667
Stop. Look at me.
478
00:23:45,667 --> 00:23:46,667
Chill.
479
00:23:46,667 --> 00:23:48,700
[Jackson speaking]
480
00:23:48,700 --> 00:23:50,433
Hey, oh, oh, oh.
481
00:23:51,700 --> 00:23:53,767
What? Why would
you do that?
482
00:23:53,767 --> 00:23:55,500
Lilah, this way. This way.
483
00:23:55,500 --> 00:23:57,900
-[loudly] Oh!
-[Zach] Okay. Shh.
484
00:23:57,900 --> 00:23:59,500
-[Jackson speaking]
-[Zach] That's pretty cool.
485
00:23:59,500 --> 00:24:01,867
Yeah. Can you
put those back?
486
00:24:01,867 --> 00:24:04,166
-[Jackson speaking]
-Oh, hey, go put
that back, okay?
487
00:24:05,567 --> 00:24:07,467
[Zach] No,
Lilah's moving you.
488
00:24:10,700 --> 00:24:11,667
[Lilah speaking]
489
00:24:11,667 --> 00:24:13,166
-[Zach] Lilah! Lilah!
-[Lilah screaming]
490
00:24:13,166 --> 00:24:16,266
-[crying]
-[Zach] Jackson!
Jackson! Jackson!
491
00:24:16,266 --> 00:24:18,100
Tori's very good
at disciplining
492
00:24:18,100 --> 00:24:19,867
the kids in public.
493
00:24:19,867 --> 00:24:22,166
I get, like...
I just don't like it.
494
00:24:22,166 --> 00:24:23,600
But she's, like,
not afraid of that.
495
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,066
And then the kids know,
496
00:24:25,066 --> 00:24:26,200
like, "We can't
do this in public,
497
00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:29,100
Mom doesn't care
if we have the whole
world looking at us."
498
00:24:29,100 --> 00:24:30,166
Hey, Lilah.
499
00:24:30,166 --> 00:24:31,734
[cell phone ringing]
500
00:24:33,100 --> 00:24:35,667
-Hey!
-[Tori] Yay! Hi!
501
00:24:35,667 --> 00:24:38,233
[Lilah screaming and crying]
502
00:24:40,900 --> 00:24:42,767
[Zach] All right, let me...
Let's call you back.
503
00:24:42,767 --> 00:24:43,700
[Tori] Okay.
504
00:24:43,700 --> 00:24:44,700
[screams]
505
00:24:44,700 --> 00:24:46,500
Lilah, Lilah, Lilah!
506
00:24:46,500 --> 00:24:48,066
[Lilah crying hysterically]
507
00:24:48,066 --> 00:24:49,834
Hey, hey, hey!
508
00:24:50,867 --> 00:24:51,934
Hey!
509
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:56,367
Okay. Come on. Let's go.
510
00:24:57,300 --> 00:24:58,634
Ooh! Look at this.
511
00:24:59,867 --> 00:25:01,567
-Can you say thank you?
-[Jackson speaking]
512
00:25:01,567 --> 00:25:03,200
-You're welcome.
-All right. Thank you.
513
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:06,266
Now, look at that.
You guys have a balloon now.
514
00:25:06,266 --> 00:25:08,066
All right.
Let's go find the car.
515
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:10,367
Taking three kids shopping,
516
00:25:10,367 --> 00:25:11,967
I don't know,
I had no worries.
517
00:25:11,967 --> 00:25:13,467
I was a little cocky.
518
00:25:13,467 --> 00:25:14,567
It wasn't like
the end of the world,
519
00:25:14,567 --> 00:25:16,166
but they definitely
were over it.
520
00:25:16,166 --> 00:25:17,867
You know, it'd be nice
if Tori was here.
521
00:25:17,867 --> 00:25:19,100
But she's not.
522
00:25:19,100 --> 00:25:21,600
And I'm glad
that she's enjoying
her time with her friends.
523
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,000
But, you know,
524
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:24,467
I think it's a lot of work
with three kids.
525
00:25:24,467 --> 00:25:26,066
Still gotta go home,
make dinner,
526
00:25:26,567 --> 00:25:28,467
you know, clean up,
527
00:25:28,467 --> 00:25:30,266
you know, but that's
just what it is, you know.
528
00:25:30,266 --> 00:25:31,634
It's just what you have to do.
529
00:25:31,867 --> 00:25:32,767
All right.
530
00:25:32,767 --> 00:25:34,000
Lilah, you come
to the other side.
531
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:35,100
Hold on to your balloon.
532
00:25:35,100 --> 00:25:36,367
Jackson, you get in.
533
00:25:36,367 --> 00:25:37,667
I didn't find a couch today.
534
00:25:37,667 --> 00:25:39,767
But, um, I'll probably
come back.
535
00:25:39,767 --> 00:25:43,100
And maybe I'll go
by myself next time.
536
00:25:43,100 --> 00:25:44,800
And then, Jackson,
shut the door once you're in.
537
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:45,767
Oh!
538
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,667
[Zach] Lilah, did you...
Did you let go?
539
00:25:50,667 --> 00:25:52,066
[Lilah crying]
540
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,367
Lilah, did you let go of it?
541
00:25:55,367 --> 00:25:57,567
Okay. Come on.
No more balloon.
542
00:25:57,567 --> 00:25:58,900
Say, "Bye-bye, balloon."
543
00:25:58,900 --> 00:25:59,867
Say, "Bye-bye."
544
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:01,934
[Lilah speaking]
545
00:26:02,700 --> 00:26:03,700
[woman] Coming up...
546
00:26:03,700 --> 00:26:05,367
I'd like to have
some competitions
547
00:26:05,367 --> 00:26:06,667
with some fun prizes.
548
00:26:06,667 --> 00:26:09,166
Can we also emphasize
that this is a fundraiser?
549
00:26:09,166 --> 00:26:10,200
Because I'll probably--
550
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:11,166
[Matt] No fun!
551
00:26:11,166 --> 00:26:12,667
[both laughing]
552
00:26:12,667 --> 00:26:14,900
Well, we can't talk
with these two.
553
00:26:14,900 --> 00:26:16,467
No, no, you can't.
554
00:26:19,166 --> 00:26:20,533
Complete disaster.
555
00:26:24,567 --> 00:26:25,567
[upbeat music playing]
556
00:26:31,667 --> 00:26:33,367
[Zach] Let's go get Josiah.
557
00:26:34,166 --> 00:26:36,667
[Lilah speaking]
558
00:26:36,667 --> 00:26:38,367
[Zach] Hi, are you good?
559
00:26:38,367 --> 00:26:40,367
Do you wanna get some lunch?
560
00:26:40,367 --> 00:26:42,266
Tori's been gone
a couple of days now,
561
00:26:42,266 --> 00:26:43,667
and, uh, it's going well.
562
00:26:43,667 --> 00:26:46,667
You know, the stuff that
Josiah and Lilah wanna do
563
00:26:46,667 --> 00:26:48,166
isn't usually what
Dad wants to do.
564
00:26:48,166 --> 00:26:50,100
And Jackson's at school
the whole day,
565
00:26:50,100 --> 00:26:52,300
so it's been a little low-key.
566
00:26:52,300 --> 00:26:54,567
The hardest part
has been that Tori left
567
00:26:54,567 --> 00:26:56,867
right when daylight
savings time hit.
568
00:26:56,867 --> 00:26:59,000
And it's been brutal.
This morning was brutal.
569
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:00,667
I had to wake up Jackson.
570
00:27:00,667 --> 00:27:02,400
He's been late both days.
571
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,033
And I do not like being late.
572
00:27:04,500 --> 00:27:06,300
Oh. Poo-poos.
573
00:27:06,300 --> 00:27:08,867
Tori does a great job
at dressing our kids
574
00:27:08,867 --> 00:27:12,500
-in fancy, creative clothes.
-[Lilah screaming]
575
00:27:12,500 --> 00:27:15,400
I can't stand
having to find an outfit.
576
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,000
I just wanna grab something.
577
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:18,166
I went to the store
578
00:27:18,567 --> 00:27:19,967
and I just picked up
579
00:27:19,967 --> 00:27:23,266
a bunch of basic,
simple onesies.
580
00:27:23,266 --> 00:27:25,667
So every single day,
we just put them in a onesie.
581
00:27:25,667 --> 00:27:27,567
Super simple.
[chuckles] Okay?
582
00:27:27,567 --> 00:27:28,533
Come on, Lilah.
583
00:27:29,567 --> 00:27:31,667
This is my point
to everything.
584
00:27:31,667 --> 00:27:34,400
Like, everyone
has way too many
options in this house.
585
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,367
This is literally my uniform.
586
00:27:36,367 --> 00:27:38,200
Black or white.
I wear black or white.
587
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,900
And it's super simple
every morning, you know.
588
00:27:40,900 --> 00:27:43,767
I'm totally a fan
of just simplifying
the options.
589
00:27:43,767 --> 00:27:46,000
And I think
it'll just be a lot easier
590
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,667
getting out of the house
on time if we did that.
591
00:27:54,166 --> 00:27:56,867
-Uh-oh.
-[Zach] Okay. What?
592
00:27:58,000 --> 00:27:59,567
What? Did you
give him a wipe?
593
00:27:59,567 --> 00:28:00,767
Why'd you do that?
594
00:28:05,700 --> 00:28:07,266
Are you being silly?
595
00:28:12,867 --> 00:28:14,000
It's hot?
596
00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:16,667
[Zach] I think I did
a great job with Tori's list.
597
00:28:16,667 --> 00:28:19,266
Picture day went great,
the house is pretty clean,
598
00:28:19,266 --> 00:28:20,700
we made the lasagna last.
599
00:28:20,700 --> 00:28:22,800
The only thing
I haven't done on the list
600
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,000
was pack the lunch notes
for Jackson.
601
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,266
This morning,
I forgot again.
602
00:28:27,266 --> 00:28:29,767
Tori's not gonna
be happy. [laughs]
603
00:28:29,767 --> 00:28:31,166
Do you know what
Mom did yesterday?
604
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,867
She was out
from eight in the morning
605
00:28:35,300 --> 00:28:37,767
to 1 o'clock at night.
606
00:28:37,767 --> 00:28:40,567
Incredible.
We were in bed by eight.
607
00:28:44,367 --> 00:28:46,500
[Zach] Tori gets back
from her trip tomorrow.
608
00:28:46,500 --> 00:28:49,166
Um, and it'll be great
to get back to normal.
609
00:28:49,166 --> 00:28:50,767
We've really missed her.
610
00:28:50,767 --> 00:28:52,300
But she deserves it.
611
00:28:52,300 --> 00:28:53,867
Sounds like she's
having a lot of fun,
612
00:28:53,867 --> 00:28:56,266
and yeah, we're
happy she did that.
613
00:28:56,266 --> 00:28:58,367
You guys wanna
practice some walking?
614
00:28:58,367 --> 00:28:59,767
[Zach grunts]
615
00:29:01,467 --> 00:29:02,700
Hey!
616
00:29:02,700 --> 00:29:04,266
[Lilah speaking]
617
00:29:04,266 --> 00:29:06,467
[Zach] All right,
we're gonna walk all
the way to the living room.
618
00:29:06,467 --> 00:29:09,767
The kids and I have gotten
into a nice little routine
throughout the day.
619
00:29:09,767 --> 00:29:12,467
After lunch, the three of us
will hang out for a while
620
00:29:12,467 --> 00:29:13,567
and then
it'll be time for us
621
00:29:13,567 --> 00:29:15,000
to pick Jackson up
from school.
622
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,266
[cooing]
623
00:29:17,266 --> 00:29:18,600
[Zach] Si's doing
great walking.
624
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,600
He can't catch himself
if he falls.
625
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:21,667
Once we're up, though,
626
00:29:21,667 --> 00:29:23,800
he is doing pretty good
with walking.
627
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,000
-[Lilah speaking]
-All right.
628
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,300
Good job, Si-Si.
Let's take a little break.
629
00:29:28,300 --> 00:29:31,934
Josiah's second nap happens,
like, a one to three thing.
630
00:29:32,367 --> 00:29:33,834
Night, night, Si-Si!
631
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:35,500
Okay. Let's go.
632
00:29:35,500 --> 00:29:37,100
Whilst Josiah's napping,
633
00:29:37,100 --> 00:29:38,600
Lilah still has
a lot of energy.
634
00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,000
And so, we're finding
things to do.
635
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:42,767
-[Lilah speaking]
-[Zach] Si-Si is sleeping.
636
00:29:44,266 --> 00:29:45,634
You wanna go
walk in the water?
637
00:29:46,300 --> 00:29:47,266
[Lilah speaking]
638
00:29:47,266 --> 00:29:49,266
[Zach] You're excited
for Mama to be home?
639
00:29:49,266 --> 00:29:51,300
It's been nice hanging out
with Lilah and Josiah.
640
00:29:51,300 --> 00:29:53,667
Getting to spend a lot
of one-on-one time with them.
641
00:29:53,667 --> 00:29:55,667
This is totally
Josiah's Jacket.
642
00:29:55,667 --> 00:29:58,133
Oh, and your boots
are on the wrong foot.
643
00:29:58,767 --> 00:30:00,467
Oh, my heavens!
644
00:30:01,467 --> 00:30:02,734
God help us.
645
00:30:04,367 --> 00:30:06,000
-Oh!
-[Lilah crying]
646
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,867
[Zach] Lilah, you're looking
a little bit like a mess.
647
00:30:07,867 --> 00:30:08,900
You're all muddy.
648
00:30:08,900 --> 00:30:10,467
We have to go inside
and change.
649
00:30:10,467 --> 00:30:11,867
[Lilah speaking]
650
00:30:11,867 --> 00:30:13,800
Tori's gonna see
everything I did
651
00:30:13,800 --> 00:30:15,767
not exactly how she does it.
652
00:30:15,767 --> 00:30:17,467
She'll be mortified.
653
00:30:17,467 --> 00:30:20,000
But, like, other dads
do the same thing I do,
654
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,000
and... [sighs] ...we just
worry about less. [laughs]
655
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,467
Lilah, your shoes
are on the wrong feet.
656
00:30:25,467 --> 00:30:26,333
[Lilah speaking]
657
00:30:26,333 --> 00:30:28,367
[Zach] You're wearing
Josiah's sweatshirt.
658
00:30:28,367 --> 00:30:29,266
[Lilah speaking]
659
00:30:29,266 --> 00:30:31,000
[Zach] Your pants
are inside out.
660
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:32,100
[Lilah speaking]
661
00:30:32,100 --> 00:30:33,433
[Zach] And now
you're all muddy.
662
00:30:34,500 --> 00:30:36,834
Let's go home.
Let's change, okay?
663
00:30:37,500 --> 00:30:38,934
[Lilah speaking]
664
00:30:50,166 --> 00:30:51,266
How are you doing?
665
00:30:51,266 --> 00:30:52,467
-[Chris] Good afternoon.
-We're gonna park it there.
666
00:30:52,467 --> 00:30:53,634
Hello!
667
00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:58,100
[Matt] Hey, there, Daisy!
668
00:30:58,100 --> 00:31:00,667
[Caryn] Daisy, hi, girl!
669
00:31:00,667 --> 00:31:03,066
-She got a nice haircut.
-Yeah, she did.
670
00:31:03,066 --> 00:31:04,266
[Amy] She needed it.
671
00:31:04,266 --> 00:31:06,567
Amy and Chris
are stopping by the farm
672
00:31:06,567 --> 00:31:10,867
to discuss this idea
about doing a potential
charity event
673
00:31:10,867 --> 00:31:13,166
and to kind of brainstorm
what that would look like.
674
00:31:13,166 --> 00:31:16,667
I thought the idea
that Amy came up with
675
00:31:16,667 --> 00:31:20,367
for the Dwarf Athletic
Association of America,
676
00:31:20,367 --> 00:31:22,367
when she mentioned it to Matt,
677
00:31:22,367 --> 00:31:23,767
we were like,
"Why wouldn't we?"
678
00:31:23,767 --> 00:31:26,066
-That's just
such a great concept.
-[Matt] Yeah.
679
00:31:26,066 --> 00:31:29,166
Like, little Jackson
is starting to take advantage
680
00:31:29,166 --> 00:31:31,567
of the organization,
and then I presume
681
00:31:31,567 --> 00:31:33,900
Lilah will get involved,
and then Josiah.
682
00:31:33,900 --> 00:31:36,667
So, it's important to keep
the organization healthy,
683
00:31:36,667 --> 00:31:39,667
and if we can help out
in some small way,
then great.
684
00:31:39,667 --> 00:31:43,100
So, I'm battling a cold
and I understand that, uh,
685
00:31:43,100 --> 00:31:45,200
you know, vitamin C
is good for you.
686
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:48,500
So I stopped and got some
lemon poppy seed donuts.
687
00:31:48,500 --> 00:31:50,533
-So that should be
good for me, right?
-[Amy laughs] Okay.
688
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,266
Oh, yeah, I'll grab one.
689
00:31:52,266 --> 00:31:55,000
-Oh, my goodness!
That looks so good.
-Thank you, Chris.
690
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:55,967
[Chris] Uh-huh.
691
00:31:55,967 --> 00:31:58,233
Anyhoo, charity event.
692
00:31:58,667 --> 00:32:00,066
Yeah.
693
00:32:00,066 --> 00:32:01,667
We got a date
blocked out. Um--
694
00:32:01,667 --> 00:32:03,166
Well, from what you told me,
695
00:32:03,166 --> 00:32:04,867
there's no other
dates available.
696
00:32:05,967 --> 00:32:08,166
They were very sparse, yes.
697
00:32:08,166 --> 00:32:09,367
There was a lot of fairly,
698
00:32:09,367 --> 00:32:12,266
like, seven-day stays
that were back-to-back.
699
00:32:12,266 --> 00:32:14,867
Well, is there any way that
you can check these dates?
700
00:32:15,767 --> 00:32:16,867
The one thing
I wanted,
701
00:32:16,867 --> 00:32:19,000
you know,
make sure happens
at this meeting,
702
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:21,700
we need a date because you
have to let people know.
703
00:32:21,700 --> 00:32:24,000
Matt has got
a number of people, I guess,
704
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,166
renting out the farm house
705
00:32:26,166 --> 00:32:27,767
that I've got
to nail down the date,
706
00:32:27,767 --> 00:32:30,266
and it's gotta happen now.
707
00:32:30,266 --> 00:32:33,500
If we can push it to June,
the weather will be better.
708
00:32:33,500 --> 00:32:34,834
June 24th.
709
00:32:35,767 --> 00:32:38,000
Yeah. Yeah.
That could totally work.
710
00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,000
June 24th.
We're setting a date today.
711
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:41,967
June 24th. Okay.
712
00:32:41,967 --> 00:32:44,467
Amy, she can cross that line
713
00:32:44,467 --> 00:32:48,867
from micro-manager to,
um, dictator quicker than me.
714
00:32:48,867 --> 00:32:50,500
You know, and she
can go right there,
715
00:32:50,500 --> 00:32:52,667
and you just
fasten your seat belt.
716
00:32:52,667 --> 00:32:55,100
You know, she could
boss people around
with the best of 'em.
717
00:32:55,100 --> 00:32:56,000
[Chris] What are your thoughts
718
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:58,300
about doing it
in the wedding area?
719
00:32:58,300 --> 00:33:00,567
Using the wedding barn and
then that grass area there?
720
00:33:00,567 --> 00:33:02,000
-It's got an amazing view.
-Oh, I like that plan.
721
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,667
There's no heat,
but I like it.
Would you get a tent?
722
00:33:04,667 --> 00:33:06,166
-I'm not doing a tent.
-Okay.
723
00:33:06,166 --> 00:33:08,000
-[Amy] That's way
too much money.
-Yep.
724
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:09,166
[Amy] Planning for anything,
725
00:33:09,166 --> 00:33:10,667
you know, who's gonna
take ownership?
726
00:33:10,667 --> 00:33:11,867
Who's gonna lead this?
727
00:33:11,867 --> 00:33:13,100
I've been there, done that.
728
00:33:13,100 --> 00:33:14,867
You can't have
too many leaders
729
00:33:14,867 --> 00:33:16,300
and too many bosses, so...
730
00:33:16,300 --> 00:33:18,400
Well, not only that.
Out of the four of us,
731
00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,000
Amy has the most experience.
732
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,567
So, I think it'd be better
for Matt and I to kinda
733
00:33:22,567 --> 00:33:24,100
do the peripheral stuff.
734
00:33:24,100 --> 00:33:25,367
[chuckles]
735
00:33:25,367 --> 00:33:26,667
We need to look
at the wedding barn,
736
00:33:26,667 --> 00:33:28,166
'cause all of the store stuff
737
00:33:28,166 --> 00:33:31,266
-is all stuffed in the big
round middle of it.
-Oh, right.
738
00:33:31,266 --> 00:33:34,367
Maybe we could
just push it to the back.
739
00:33:34,367 --> 00:33:36,266
So, I wanna get...
Nail that down today.
740
00:33:36,266 --> 00:33:39,266
So, we'll take a ride
over there and get
that figured out.
741
00:33:39,266 --> 00:33:40,333
Okay.
742
00:33:41,767 --> 00:33:43,800
There's a number of ideas
being kicked around.
743
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:45,767
And, you know, Amy
made it very clear
744
00:33:45,767 --> 00:33:47,000
that she's in charge.
745
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,567
[laughs]
746
00:33:48,567 --> 00:33:49,767
-Fine by us.
-Yeah.
747
00:33:49,767 --> 00:33:50,767
I mean, it was their idea
748
00:33:50,767 --> 00:33:52,266
and we want them
to roll with it
749
00:33:52,266 --> 00:33:53,667
and we'll be the support.
750
00:33:53,667 --> 00:33:55,100
-The co-pilots.
-Yeah. I'm like,
751
00:33:55,100 --> 00:33:58,066
"Amy, if you're lucky,
I'll let you play on
my fun ride."
752
00:33:58,066 --> 00:33:59,767
[laughing]
753
00:33:59,767 --> 00:34:01,433
Oh, you two.
754
00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:05,166
-This is gonna be fun.
-Yeah. [laughs]
755
00:34:05,166 --> 00:34:08,400
[Caryn] So would it be
safe to say we're gonna
kinda hover around
756
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:10,100
a total of 60 people?
757
00:34:10,100 --> 00:34:12,867
That's my expectation,
that's my anticipation.
758
00:34:12,867 --> 00:34:15,100
We're just in the beginning
of the stage of planning,
759
00:34:15,100 --> 00:34:17,367
but part
of a fundraising event
760
00:34:17,367 --> 00:34:19,266
is that, you know,
there's a fee,
761
00:34:19,266 --> 00:34:22,567
and that will go
towards DAAA.
762
00:34:22,567 --> 00:34:23,667
So, besides dinner,
763
00:34:23,667 --> 00:34:26,000
we'll have some
silent auction items.
764
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,266
Uh, we'll have some
activities there.
765
00:34:28,266 --> 00:34:30,266
And then, you know,
after all of it,
766
00:34:30,266 --> 00:34:31,867
then we'll have
entertainment.
767
00:34:31,867 --> 00:34:35,000
You've mentioned you were
thinking, like, four to seven?
768
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,467
Yeah, like four to seven.
I mean, what do you think?
769
00:34:37,467 --> 00:34:39,100
That seems kinda quick
770
00:34:39,100 --> 00:34:41,567
if we're gonna be adding,
you know, a bunch
of activities and stuff,
771
00:34:41,567 --> 00:34:44,367
and we need
to give people
a reason to come here
772
00:34:44,367 --> 00:34:47,100
other than just a "sit down
and eat lunch and go".
773
00:34:47,100 --> 00:34:49,367
-Uh--
-Why don't we do maybe,
like, four to seven,
774
00:34:49,367 --> 00:34:51,700
and then if people
wanna stay till eight or nine,
775
00:34:51,700 --> 00:34:53,667
-then we have our after-party?
-[Chris] Yeah. Four to seven
is too soon.
776
00:34:53,667 --> 00:34:56,333
That's perfect.
That's a good idea.
777
00:34:57,266 --> 00:34:59,266
And then we can
always have music
778
00:34:59,266 --> 00:35:01,467
-from, like, seven to nine.
-[Caryn] Yeah.
779
00:35:02,266 --> 00:35:04,266
[Amy] Um... What?
780
00:35:04,266 --> 00:35:05,867
Just... Nothing.
781
00:35:05,867 --> 00:35:07,867
Just, like, okay.
Let's just do it.
782
00:35:07,867 --> 00:35:08,967
During the meeting,
783
00:35:08,967 --> 00:35:10,867
I could tell there was a point
where it seemed like
784
00:35:10,867 --> 00:35:12,667
you and Amy were
getting a little agitated
785
00:35:12,667 --> 00:35:15,166
with each other,
and I'm not ever
786
00:35:15,166 --> 00:35:16,100
getting in the middle of that.
787
00:35:16,100 --> 00:35:17,567
[chuckles]
788
00:35:17,567 --> 00:35:20,000
Well, I don't wanna get
into having to get lights
for the parking lot.
789
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,100
So it'd be better
if it wrapped before dark.
790
00:35:22,100 --> 00:35:24,166
-That's the longest--
-[Caryn] Seven to nine.
She just said.
791
00:35:24,166 --> 00:35:26,100
[Amy] That is the longest day.
792
00:35:26,100 --> 00:35:28,300
-[Chris] Yeah.
-So, if it happens to be--
793
00:35:28,300 --> 00:35:30,266
-How painful! [laughs]
-[Chris laughs]
794
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:36,266
-Complete disaster.
-[laughs]
795
00:35:36,266 --> 00:35:39,467
No. I mean, any event
is a little bit stressful
796
00:35:39,467 --> 00:35:43,000
and you put a stressed-out Amy
and a stressed-out Matt
797
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:44,667
anywhere in the same...
798
00:35:44,667 --> 00:35:46,367
-In the same box.
-...in a one-mile radius,
799
00:35:46,367 --> 00:35:49,767
and it seems like there's
a combustion of smoke
that just starts.
800
00:35:49,767 --> 00:35:51,700
[laughing]
801
00:35:51,700 --> 00:35:54,100
Can we also emphasize
that this is a fundraiser
802
00:35:54,100 --> 00:35:56,266
and we're gonna
encourage everyone?
803
00:35:56,266 --> 00:35:57,867
-[Matt] Oh.
-Because I'll probably--
804
00:35:57,867 --> 00:36:00,066
-No fun. [laughs]
-[Chris laughs]
805
00:36:00,066 --> 00:36:02,367
Well, we can't talk
with these two.
806
00:36:02,367 --> 00:36:04,166
No, no, you can't.
807
00:36:04,166 --> 00:36:07,266
It's a little easier
to goof off when you're
not the one in charge.
808
00:36:07,266 --> 00:36:10,867
And so, since Amy's taken
that role, then... [laughs]
809
00:36:10,867 --> 00:36:13,233
Then yes, it's a little
easier to have fun.
810
00:36:14,567 --> 00:36:18,266
I think every 30 minutes,
we have a cow bell
811
00:36:18,266 --> 00:36:20,567
and we pass the cowboy hat
812
00:36:20,567 --> 00:36:22,367
and everybody could
throw, you know, something.
813
00:36:22,367 --> 00:36:23,867
Everybody will know
when the cow bell goes off,
814
00:36:23,867 --> 00:36:26,800
turn around
and run with your wallet.
815
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,266
[Matt] I don't have
any apprehension
with working with Amy.
816
00:36:29,266 --> 00:36:31,567
I just know I can go
to Chris and solve it.
817
00:36:31,567 --> 00:36:33,300
-Oh, my gosh.
-Figure it out. [laughs]
818
00:36:33,300 --> 00:36:36,767
So, with Chris
being the safety net there,
819
00:36:36,767 --> 00:36:39,266
I'm pretty sure, um,
820
00:36:39,266 --> 00:36:42,000
we can stay out
of any conflict.
821
00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:44,500
Okay. So, should we head over
to the wedding barn?
822
00:36:44,500 --> 00:36:46,700
Okay. You guys
wanna ride with us?
823
00:36:46,700 --> 00:36:49,100
-Yeah.
-We'll get a meal out there.
We'll go over there.
824
00:36:49,100 --> 00:36:51,266
I'm sure it's a little
uncomfortable for Matt
825
00:36:51,266 --> 00:36:54,166
to, you know, be in a room
planning an event with his ex.
826
00:36:54,166 --> 00:36:57,400
I'm sure there's elements,
that we push each
other's buttons,
827
00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:58,667
but, uh,
828
00:36:58,667 --> 00:37:00,400
if I didn't think,
by the end of the day,
829
00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:05,400
that I could work with Matt
on this fundraising project,
830
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:07,000
I wouldn't have
broached it.
831
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:10,000
But no, it definitely
occurs to me, like,
832
00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:11,867
I did have a choice in this.
833
00:37:11,867 --> 00:37:13,467
[clicks tongue]
834
00:37:13,467 --> 00:37:14,934
And here I go.
835
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:16,433
[Matt] Just for the record,
836
00:37:16,433 --> 00:37:20,266
I loved the idea of this,
the party being out here.
837
00:37:20,266 --> 00:37:23,467
[Amy] Okay. That is not
the indication you gave
838
00:37:23,467 --> 00:37:26,233
multiple times.
839
00:37:30,166 --> 00:37:31,200
[upbeat music playing]
840
00:37:46,934 --> 00:37:47,900
[engine stops]
841
00:37:51,834 --> 00:37:53,333
-Gentle.
-[Jackson] Oh, ow!
842
00:37:53,333 --> 00:37:54,433
[chuckles] Are you okay?
843
00:37:54,867 --> 00:37:56,400
[Zach] The crazy one.
844
00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,000
Are you excited to be back?
845
00:37:58,000 --> 00:37:59,734
I'm so excited to be back.
846
00:38:00,467 --> 00:38:01,934
I missed my family.
847
00:38:02,967 --> 00:38:04,400
[Tori] I went
on a girls' trip.
848
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:05,467
It was so nice
849
00:38:05,467 --> 00:38:07,166
to just spend time
with my friends,
850
00:38:07,166 --> 00:38:08,367
and when I got home,
851
00:38:08,367 --> 00:38:10,600
Zach and the kids were
outside waiting for me.
852
00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:13,333
I was so excited to see you
and my kids again.
853
00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:15,900
[Zach] Look at Mama!
854
00:38:17,967 --> 00:38:19,266
[Tori] Hi!
855
00:38:19,266 --> 00:38:21,333
-[Zach] Hi.
-Come here.
856
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:26,934
-I missed you so much.
-[Zach] You see Mama?
857
00:38:26,934 --> 00:38:28,667
How are you?
858
00:38:28,667 --> 00:38:30,233
Oh, I missed you so much.
859
00:38:30,567 --> 00:38:32,133
How are you?
860
00:38:32,133 --> 00:38:36,133
-How are you?
-Good. I missed my family!
861
00:38:38,767 --> 00:38:40,667
What was the hardest part
about being away?
862
00:38:40,667 --> 00:38:43,967
Not a lot
was difficult for me.
863
00:38:43,967 --> 00:38:46,133
It was fairly easy.
It was very nice.
864
00:38:46,133 --> 00:38:47,333
[Zach] Did you feel
refreshed though?
865
00:38:47,333 --> 00:38:48,367
[Tori] Oh, yeah.
866
00:38:48,367 --> 00:38:50,867
When you become a mom
and you're breast-feeding
867
00:38:50,867 --> 00:38:53,000
and you are pregnant,
868
00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:56,467
like, you're constantly
attached to someone else.
869
00:38:56,467 --> 00:38:58,400
Like, someone's needing
something from you.
870
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:00,166
And so, I think that
was the best part of it
871
00:39:00,166 --> 00:39:02,667
was just like
my body's mine again.
872
00:39:02,667 --> 00:39:04,233
I'm not pregnant.
I'm not breast-feeding.
873
00:39:04,233 --> 00:39:05,567
I'm not trying
to get pregnant.
874
00:39:05,567 --> 00:39:09,166
Like, it was just nice
to get away and have
my own time
875
00:39:09,166 --> 00:39:11,166
where somebody
didn't need me.
876
00:39:11,166 --> 00:39:13,066
I think the kids liked
having just Dad though.
877
00:39:13,066 --> 00:39:14,667
Yeah, I bet they did.
878
00:39:14,667 --> 00:39:16,367
We can wear
whatever we wanted.
879
00:39:16,367 --> 00:39:17,967
-[Tori laughing]
-Eat whatever we wanted.
880
00:39:17,967 --> 00:39:19,333
[Tori] Okay.
881
00:39:19,333 --> 00:39:21,033
Zach did a great job
while I was gone.
882
00:39:21,033 --> 00:39:23,266
Everyone's still breathing.
Dad's still breathing.
883
00:39:23,266 --> 00:39:24,500
-They're still breathing.
-The house is very clean.
884
00:39:24,500 --> 00:39:26,767
Yeah. The house
was fantastic.
885
00:39:26,767 --> 00:39:29,333
Now you just push this
all around like this, okay?
886
00:39:29,767 --> 00:39:30,667
[Lilah] Okay.
887
00:39:30,667 --> 00:39:32,033
Here.
888
00:39:32,033 --> 00:39:34,834
Right before Tori got back,
I did a clean-up of
the whole house,
889
00:39:34,834 --> 00:39:36,333
and Lilah helped me too.
890
00:39:36,333 --> 00:39:38,166
She was probably excited
that Mom was coming back,
891
00:39:38,166 --> 00:39:40,467
and, uh, yeah,
she was being helpful.
892
00:39:43,667 --> 00:39:44,867
Sorry.
893
00:39:44,867 --> 00:39:46,367
I'm probably gonna do it more.
894
00:39:46,367 --> 00:39:47,333
[laughing]
895
00:39:47,333 --> 00:39:48,567
'Cause you're so good at it.
896
00:39:48,567 --> 00:39:51,333
So, now I'm like, "Can't wait
for the next trip."
897
00:39:52,767 --> 00:39:54,867
-[Tori] Si-Si! Where
are you going?
-I forgot
898
00:39:54,867 --> 00:39:56,433
to put the notes
in the lunch box.
899
00:39:57,600 --> 00:39:59,867
-You forgot?
-I forgot.
900
00:39:59,867 --> 00:40:01,266
I thought about it
every morning.
901
00:40:01,266 --> 00:40:02,667
Babe, how excited
would he have been
902
00:40:02,667 --> 00:40:04,734
-if he read that, Zach?
-Tori, I know.
903
00:40:04,734 --> 00:40:06,033
It's a bummer I forgot.
904
00:40:06,767 --> 00:40:09,600
The mornings
did get hectic, okay.
905
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:11,066
-Yeah.
-And I forgot the notes
906
00:40:11,066 --> 00:40:14,266
in the lunch pail
during that time.
907
00:40:14,266 --> 00:40:16,133
Every day. [laughs]
I just didn't do that.
908
00:40:16,133 --> 00:40:17,667
-[Tori] You live
and you learn.
-[Zach] Yeah.
909
00:40:17,667 --> 00:40:20,333
I just realized
I forgot a note today.
910
00:40:20,333 --> 00:40:22,066
[exhales in relief]
911
00:40:22,066 --> 00:40:24,667
Happens to the best of us.
912
00:40:24,667 --> 00:40:26,667
[Zach] Is my parenting style
different than yours?
913
00:40:26,667 --> 00:40:27,634
A little bit.
914
00:40:28,500 --> 00:40:30,567
Who's, like, more chill?
Mom or me?
915
00:40:32,667 --> 00:40:34,667
Mom is?
916
00:40:34,667 --> 00:40:36,500
I don't think you know
what chill means.
917
00:40:36,500 --> 00:40:39,567
Don't pat him on the head.
That's kinda weird.
918
00:40:42,934 --> 00:40:46,100
[laughs] No.
You choose whoever it is.
919
00:40:48,066 --> 00:40:50,000
Guilt-tripping to that one.
920
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:51,967
What was it like
having Dad in charge
921
00:40:51,967 --> 00:40:53,000
and Mom out of town?
922
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,834
Oh. Was the house
more crazy without Mom?
923
00:41:00,166 --> 00:41:01,100
[giggles]
924
00:41:01,467 --> 00:41:02,834
Why?
925
00:41:04,934 --> 00:41:06,967
[Tori] Hey, it's getting
a little cold for Si.
926
00:41:06,967 --> 00:41:08,166
We're gonna go in.
927
00:41:08,166 --> 00:41:09,166
[Zach] Got it.
928
00:41:09,667 --> 00:41:11,100
I fully appreciate Tori
929
00:41:11,100 --> 00:41:13,367
and everything she does
on a daily basis.
930
00:41:13,367 --> 00:41:15,767
I think Tori and me, like,
we definitely parent together.
931
00:41:15,767 --> 00:41:17,934
You know, we don't have
long periods of time
932
00:41:17,934 --> 00:41:20,166
when there's just
one of us with all the kids.
933
00:41:20,166 --> 00:41:22,500
And so it makes each other
appreciate each other
934
00:41:22,500 --> 00:41:25,200
more that we're
doing this together.
935
00:41:25,667 --> 00:41:26,834
[Tori] Come on.
936
00:41:27,367 --> 00:41:29,200
I'm leaving. Come on.
937
00:41:31,467 --> 00:41:33,667
[woman] Next on
Little People, Big World...
938
00:41:33,667 --> 00:41:35,767
Amy, I gotta show you
the kitchen plan.
939
00:41:35,767 --> 00:41:37,467
Do you now?
940
00:41:37,467 --> 00:41:39,734
I don't really have
a need or a desire
941
00:41:39,734 --> 00:41:42,100
to check out the house
that Matt's building.
942
00:41:42,100 --> 00:41:45,166
I've been through
so many construction
sites on this farm.
943
00:41:45,166 --> 00:41:47,100
Working with him
or being with him
944
00:41:47,100 --> 00:41:48,767
can be very exhausting.
945
00:41:48,767 --> 00:41:51,400
We're doing the wall.
No, we're not.
946
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:52,667
-Right, Caryn?
-[Chris laughs]
947
00:41:52,667 --> 00:41:53,767
Whatever you want.
948
00:41:53,767 --> 00:41:54,734
Hasn't changed.
949
00:41:56,100 --> 00:41:57,367
[Zach] Here he comes.
950
00:41:57,367 --> 00:41:58,367
Go, go, go, go, go.
951
00:41:58,367 --> 00:42:00,266
I am coaching
Jackson's soccer team.
952
00:42:00,266 --> 00:42:02,100
Jackson, you're open. Jackson!
953
00:42:02,100 --> 00:42:03,367
Some of the opposing kids
954
00:42:03,367 --> 00:42:04,767
point out that
he's different,
955
00:42:04,767 --> 00:42:06,767
and he's starting to hear that
for the first time.
956
00:42:06,767 --> 00:42:08,600
-Are you okay?
-[Jackson speaking]
957
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,000
We need to be
very aware how we respond
958
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:12,634
because it's just...
It's not ever gonna stop.
959
00:42:19,367 --> 00:42:20,767
You go, Caryn.
You go--
960
00:42:20,767 --> 00:42:22,734
No. You do it.
961
00:42:24,266 --> 00:42:25,266
[sighs]
