- Whose birthday is it?
You don't know what a birthday is yet.
Aw, gonna put your paci in.
Happy birthday, Benjamin!
Woo, he's trying to run and get my camera.
So guys, I can't believe it.
Today Benjamin, it's his birthday.
One year ago.
Tear.
It's Happy First Birthday, Benjamin Day,
and before I get this party started,
I was gonna show you guys, like
this is gonna be a quick call
before we do the birthday party,
'cause we're getting ready to wrap and cook and do balloons
and do all that, so let me show you what he's gettin'.
So I have been doing a ton of haul videos today
for the upcoming road trip and everything.
So this is stuff we had got for Benjamin's party
that we are officially ringin' the gong
and gettin' ready to have.
First and foremost, let me show you,
this is a darling vest that Naomi
has crocheted for Benjamin,
you know she's a very, very crafty girl.
She was going to crochet him a blanket,
we got short on time, so now she has just made him a vest.
So sweet.
Also, at Target, I got him fresh little rompers.
I love putting my babies in these rompers.
So we've got a turtle romper and a little tiger romper,
and a hippo romper and a little bulldog romper,
and then this little rhinoceros I'm in charge outfit.
We might put him in that to get his cupcake all over.
And then here, this is, we got a little turtle shirt,
turtle shorts and then it has a turtle onesie.
So, there you go, happy birthday, kid.
Also got him these classic little animal parade links.
And I was thinking for the road trip,
this would just be fun for him
to mess around with and pull all over on his car seat.
We had Naomi pick this out, his little monster truck.
We got a fox xylophone,
and then the big thing that we got him
is this Ball Go Grippers.
So it is the tower and it is
I think it might only have one car in it,
the little car that's on top,
so then I also got a six pack of cars.
So, this is something that I figured Benjamin can play with.
He's gonna grow into this toy,
and it's something that his big younger brothers there
are gonna also enjoy doing with him.
And then for his party, when we were at Dollar Tree,
I was looking at everything at first at Target.
I thought I'd do Mickey Mouse stuff,
and then I thought,
I'll wait to see what other options were.
So then at Dollar Tree I didn't wanna wait,
'cause I wasn't sure what Walmart's selection would be.
So I went with an emoji party.
So we got emoji napkins and plates.
We're gonna hang these decorations.
We got some little party blowers,
and a table cloth, and just a fun centerpiece,
and then his birthday candle.
And I will have a big kid blow up balloons
and put those all around.
So here we go, happy birthday, Benjamin.
Naomi's been wrapping presents.
Look, she even cut out some little hearts for him.
We've got the emoji decorations hanging.
So I was wondering what the other kids were doing,
and they have brought birthday balloons to the trampoline.
They have sent Liam as their
representative to get more balloons.
So Liam is now adding more balloons to the fun.
Are you gonna have some birthday strawberries?
Oh, just a few.
Yummy.
So here is a glimpse of how the
birthday party plates are looking.
This is Amelia's plate, and this is Daniel's plate.
Here's the sweaty, deck-jumping crew.
So, this is what we got.
This is his birthday balloon cake.
It's cupcakes, and of course we got a cheesecake.
Then we got some cupcakes that Mama managed to tilt,
but we're gonna give him cupcakes with icing.

Oh.

Let's see.
What?
I bet he can figure it out.
(laughing)
- [Child] Did he eat it?
- [Boy] Just do it.
- [Jamerrill] Very.
- [Group] Yay.
- [Jamerrill] Oh throw cupcake everywhere, yay!
Okay, whoa, what?
Paper, paper.
Wow, ringy dingies.
Benjamin (gasps) you getting the hang of this quick.
Look.
Benjamin, look.
Ringies, yes.
Oh, oh, oh, here this, another one.
Another one, another one.
Another one.
Look.
What, what's that?
- [Child] What is that?
- [Jamerrill] Whoa!
- [Child] Monster truck.
- [Jamerrill] Whoa!
Benjamin.
It doesn't end.
Benjamin.
What is happening in your life?
He's like I don't know.
- [Boy] A xylophone.
- [Jamerrill] Whoa, whatever that is.
- [Woman] Cool, a noisemaker.
- [Jamerrill] Wow.
You did it.
That's overwhelming.
Now what?
Oh so Benjamin is in the vest
that Naomi crocheted him, playing with his xylophone.
(happy music)
So Liam, where are we today?
- We are at Daddy's heaven.
- [Jamerrill] Daddy's heaven.
All of Daddy's hopes and dreams are here.
Are we someplace Daddy loves?
- Yep. - Yes!
We are at a huge Chrysler event,
in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
(engines revving)
Woo!
Would you squeal your wheels louder than that Liam?
Probably. - Of course.
- [Jamerrill] Of course. (laughs)
There's woo, he's real loud.
Whoa.
(engine revving)
- [Liam] Mommy, Benjamin really likes this.
- Uh huh, Benjamin, (laughs) Benjamin is like
what is my family into?
What is up with this?
Woo!
(happy music)
This one has Kermit.
See Kermit?
Woo look, Kermit's driving.
Hi Kermit.
So we are hot, we are taking a break.
I'm probably, my face probably matches my shirt.
But don't worry, we all have on lots of SPF 50
and we've been reapplyin'.
So after a rest we're gonna go sit in the grandstands
to watch a burn out contest.
It's gonna be loud.
It's gonna be loud.
(engine revs)
(crowd cheers and applauds)
You loving your special day Trav?
Yay.
We're watching all the cars going in and out.
- Whoa. - Whoa.
You're on a table.
You're on table man, careful.
Careful, we don't wanna go off the table.
We don't need stitches on Daddy's special day.
Hey Benjamin and Zion.
(laughs)
You dancing?
Oh yeah.
(kids exclaiming)
Woo, everyone likes that one.
When I retire, I'm gotta get a Viper
to be my grocery getter for my grandkid.
One grandkid can come with me.
We can put groceries in the trunk.
This is like a yard sale of car parts.
Okay, so we have one like this one, I believe.
- [Travis] Except it's white.
- [Jamerrill] Okay.
And then there's a red one.
Yes, yes.
Barracudas.
You'll see it, there's two,
two skeleton's fixing the car.
They just worked on it 'til they died. (laughs)
Look at you!
Look at you.
Benjamin is enjoying his birthday toys this morning.
Travis is working on making waffles at the table.
So we're just gonna make 'em out here
and serve 'em out here.
And then have our breakfast and Bible time.
And then Zion is working on,
he is actually doubling over the bacon and twisting it.
Of course, I learn everything from YouTube, guys.
One of my viewers the other day
said that they twist their bacon
so they can fit more on their pans.
And then you know you can do this in a regular baking sheet.
I got these pans about, oh probably two months ago
that have this iron rack on it also.
So we're gonna give those a go this morning as well.
We are done with breakfast.
Were your waffles good?
- Um hmm. - Uh huh.
And now, I came out here and it looks like
Daniel and Amelia are having some puzzle time.
Daniel's working on this new PAW Patrol puzzle
I got him for a whole dollar at the Dollar Tree.
Thank you guys for hanging out
while Mr. Travis got a day out.
It was hard for me to get some footage for that
because it was so hot and we had so much going on.
But Travis loves cars.
He loves all things mo-car.
And I am glad whenever we can go out
to this Chrysler at Carlisle event.
Or yeah, Chryslers incro?
Whatever this event is, it's all the Chryslers,
it's all of his hopes and dreams,
all the cars that he loves.
And so he really enjoys when we're able
to go to this event in July.
Real quick before I go,
let me show you what I got in the mail.
I am getting ready to film our homeschool curriculum haul
and our homeschool high school haul.
So whole buncha boxes from SonLight.
What are you saying?
Benjamin, say bye friends.
Woo!
Bye friends.
