00:00 - A lot to be thankful for this year.

00:01 You are adding another one into the menu.

00:03 - Oh my God, it's not even converting.

00:04 - It's happening.

00:05 - It's happening.

00:06 - Luckily the nausea part is over,

00:08 'cause that was rough.

00:09 - It really is.

00:10 - It was so rough.

00:11 - Was it the worst that you've ever had?

00:12 - Oh, it was so, yeah.

00:13 - Stop it, he's like, it was so hard on me.

00:14 - It was the worst.

00:15 - Like, okay, Carlos, thanks.

00:17 - No, but hold on.

00:19 - It was really rough.

00:19 - You do lose, you know.

00:21 - The wife for a little bit.

00:22 - She's my best friend, right?

00:22 - Yes, mm-hmm.

00:23 - So, I always say, listen,

00:26 a nine month pregnancy is tough on the wife,

00:28 but it's definitely tough on the husband.

00:30 - It is, and you know why?

00:31 - Because you lose your best friend,

00:33 and then not only after those nine,

00:36 not only in those nine months,

00:37 but after those nine months,

00:39 you know, she's--

00:39 - She's still gone for a little bit.

00:40 - She's still gone for a little bit.

00:41 - For a little bit.

00:42 - You're gone for like almost two years.

00:43 - So, realistically--

00:44 - Look at all the things sacrificed.

00:46 - Right, I know a lot of women are like,

00:48 I don't care, whatever,

00:49 and I'm like, no, he really does have to give up a lot.

00:51 Husbands do have to give up a lot when--

00:53 - Not as much, not as much.

00:55 - But definitely, you know,

00:56 it's a decision that we made together,

00:58 and we're excited, and--

00:59 - Thank you for the sacrifice.

01:00 (laughing)

01:03 - But what were the kids' reaction?

01:05 Were they so excited?

01:06 - Oh, I have it all,

01:07 actually, we should do the video on one of these.

01:09 - Yeah.

01:10 - Because their reaction was hilarious,

01:12 and the first thing,

01:14 Ocean just was in shock,

01:15 and he's like, how did the baby get there?

01:17 And we're like, oh, well, you know what--

01:20 - How old are you?

01:21 Is this, are we having some reason right now?

01:23 - I told him, you know what?

01:24 Mommy, I mean, daddy handed it to mommy,

01:26 and mommy put it in her belly,

01:28 and there we go.

01:29 - I love that.

01:30 - So we get babies first,

01:32 and we're like, kind of, you know,

01:34 it just says parent,

01:35 she's still navigating,

01:36 what do I say to my children?

01:37 But they were ecstatic,

01:39 and even now, they all have,

01:41 on their little tablets for school and stuff,

01:45 we put an app that shows the progression of the baby growth,

01:48 so they get to check on it all the time.

01:49 - Oh, you have an apple inside of you right now.

01:52 It's a pear.

01:53 - That's so cute.

01:54 I love that.

01:55 Besides the nausea,

01:56 how has this pregnancy been different for you?

01:58 Obviously, you're running around after three kids now.

02:01 - This one is, this is a special one.

02:03 - This has been,

02:05 we actually, we're about to start our pregnancy vlogs,

02:08 where we're gonna go a little bit more in depth.

02:10 There were some scares earlier on in this pregnancy,

02:13 in all honesty,

02:14 and I've had to,

02:16 I'm a go, go, go person.

02:18 We don't stop,

02:19 and it has really forced me to have to slow down.

02:23 And that's been tough on the both of us,

02:25 because of our schedule,

02:27 and having three other kids.

02:29 - Doctor's orders.

02:30 - And we live on a boat half a year,

02:32 so just a lot of,

02:34 a lot has happened in this pregnancy

02:36 that's just made me go,

02:37 okay, guys, what are you trying to tell me right now?

02:39 I'm just gonna,

02:40 I'm gonna take it easy.

02:41 I'm gonna sit back and protect this baby as much as I can,

02:46 and just be a little bit more aware

02:48 of when my body tells me to rest.
