- Good morning, guys. I kinda had a moment last night

where I was like sad that all my kids were growing up

and I kinda talked about it last night.

And maybe it was 'cause we started watching "This is Us"

but kinda made me rededicate myself to being a better dad

and enjoying the moments with my kids.

Like, even though I'm home with them all the time

I don't think I really take advantage

of the time I have with them.

So I'm kinda like rededicating myself to being a better dad.

I was like breaking down cryin' last night, but I'm okay.

I'm just gonna take advantage of this time I have with 'em.

They're only little for so long, and I love it.

I love every moment of it, and I love my kids,

and I love being a dad.

So I'm rededicating myself to being a better dad

and a better husband and we can hang out all day together

'cause all the kids are sick so we get to be home today.

- My neighbor is pressure washing his entire house.

Like, his roof and everything. (chuckles)

Makes me think, well God, we've lived here three years.

Maybe for the house-iversary that we had yesterday,

today we should pressure wash our house.

We have a pressure washer.

I think you're supposed to do that every once in a while.

We've never done it.

- [April] Did you know that you're supposed to wash

the outside of your house?

- Yeah.

- [April] How come you never washed our house then?

I didn't know until today.

- [April] You okay?

- Yes.

- [April] My little sneeze-a-rooni.

Aw, you gotta fever.

Baby, are you dancin' to "Greatest Showman"?

- Yeah, I dance good.

- [April] How does that song go? Sing it!

(singing)

- [April] You had that bird in there the whole time?

- Yeah.

- [April] She just snuggles on.

Hey honey, how come you never wash the outside

of our house with the power washer?

- Seriously.

- Yeah I think you should do that today;

the house-a-versary and everything.

- [Davey] Now mister Ender-pants, how are you feeling today?

- Good.

- [Davey] You slept in a long time.

You must've been tired.

- Yep.

- [Davey] Daisy. You gettin' your act together?

- How're you feeling? - I slept more than you.

- [Davey] You slept a long time.

- I slept more than you too.

- [Davey] You've never done that.

You're the best sleeper in the house.

Except for Roberta. She's pretty good.

- Nope, I sleep more than her.

- [Davey] You do?

- Nope, she's better.

- {Davey] Oh, she loves to sleep.

- I sleep more than her. Sometimes.

- [Davey] Yeah, you do.

- Daddy. - What?

- I want sandwich.

- [Davey] Okay. Carrots? April?

You get hit with the Ashanti virus?

- I don't feel good.

- [Davey] Aw, poor thing.

- What are you doing?

- [Davey] And then E.B. got the Ashanti virus too?

You want a sandwich?

- I want a sandwich.

- [Davey] Peanut butter jelly?

- Peanut butter and jelly.

- I don't know if you can see it there.

That is a teeny little puppy tooth.

Ella was biting on a toy and I saw it hanging out

and I grabbed it. She had a little tooth underneath it.

Did you lose your first tooth? Huh?

Let's see your smile now.

(laughing)

You're so cute.

- Alright. Guys, all week I look forward to fruit cup

at my mom's house. Right Ambree?

And, what happened on Sunday?

What happened? Did we go to grandma's?

That's right. We did not go to grandma's house.

- We're gonna have fruit cup. Today or what?

- Should we make some? I went and bought some at the store.

Ambree got some bubble gum.

And I got the stuff for fruit cup.

I think I need me some fruit cup. There's been so much

sickness and sadness and weeping and wailing and

gnashing of teeth today. Let's make some fruit cup.

(peppy guitar)

- And now mister Ender, we shall enjoy the fruits

of our labors. Get it?

(joke drum sound)

The fruits of our labors.

- Cups

- [Davey] Cups. Cups. Who wants some fruit cups?

That is what I'm talking about right there. Mmhmm.

Now what's going on? April's been sleeping all day.

- I think I just have jet lag really bad.

And now it's like 7am in Bangkok.

- It's time to wake up. - And I feel fine.

- [Davey] Come back to Utah.

- I can't.

- [Davey] You have to come back to Utah.

- It's so hard. I tried so hard to stay awake,

but I took a nap with E.B. I took a nap with--

- [Davey] There's been like 6 naps today.

Are you gonna sleep tonight or are we

gonna be up all night watching "This is Us"?

- Probably watching "This is Us".

That's probably why I got off schedule last night.

- [Davey] We stayed up till midnight or 1.

- 2

- [Davey] No, not 2.

- I think I fell asleep by 2. My brain wouldn't shut off.

♪ You are my sunshine, ♪

♪ My only sunshine. ♪

♪ You make me happy, when skies are gray. ♪

[Davey] Can't get me. Can't get me. Can't get me. Ah!

(laughing)

- Turn bike motions.

- [Davey] You're crazy!

Na na na na na na, you can't get me. Ah! Ah!

You're stuck on the ball.

- Help us. Help us. I gotta go.

- E.B. come here.

- [Elizabeth] No.

- I got something for you. It's a surprise.

- No!

- It's in my hand. Look. It's a surprise.

- [Davey] Surprise.

- [April] Come here. Come and get it.

- Go get it.

- [Davey] She doesn't fall for your tricks.

- It's a binky. Take your binky.

- No.

- Are you a baby?

- No.

- [Davey] Well, you almost got her.

(laughing)

- The other day I just gave her this

and she put it in her mouth and she'd go.

She had no idea what to do with it.

- [Davey] Ender, what are you doing?

- I'm getting plates.

- [Davey] Are you helping me with dinner?

- Five.

- [Davey] Thanks, buddy.

K, we got shrimp. We got chicken.

We got rice. And we got corn.

(conch shell sound)

I'm putting you on the spot here. Listen.

While we were in Thailand, I heard you gave your

comedy monologue. I wanna hear you say it.

- [April] I'll be here with you. I'll be the funny one. Go.

- What a lovely time to live, isn't it?

Well, now that you ask, I might give you some advice.

Buy a dog before having children.

Me and my husband bought a dog. We called him Grandpa.

Well, he was a wonderful dog.

But he had that really addiction of running into cars.

So he died. So we bought a new dog.

And we called him Grandpa because our old dog

was called Grandpa. But he died again.

And we went, "How are all our dogs dying?"

So we decided to buy a new dog.

But call him Mother this time, so he wouldn't die.

But guess what. He died.

So when I was going to get Mother's body from the road,

our neighbor came and she was like "Hey, why don't you

tie your dog to your house?"

And I was like, "What a wonderful idea, isn't it?"

So after that, I tied all my children to the house.

And guess what. They're not dead. So take my advice.

Buy a dog before having children. That's it.

(laughing)

- [Davey] Woo!

- [April] Why did you keep killing your dogs?

- I am not a dog keeper, okay?

- [Davey] That was kind of a sad story, though.

- [April] I kept thinking when is it gonna get funny?

- [Davey] Sad.

- [April] And then it got funny.

I'm really tired.

- You're not doing okay.

- [April] Seriously, be nice.

- I thought I was being nice.

- [April] Sorry, I felt threatened.

(laughing)

- That's what happens when vloggers try to act.

- What just happened?

- We were trying. We had a funny conversation and then

April's like "We should film that. Like just act it out."

- I didn't get the scissors though. I turned around and

Davey had a knife and he's like "I'm going to hurt you."

- She said she felt threatened. And I was like

"Did you feel threatened there?" Like, weird.

- And then I punched him in the stomach.

(laughing)

- Anyways, yeah.

- [April] That made me almost pee my pants.

- That is how you guys know that everything you see on

this vlog is legit. 100% real. Because--

- [April] Because we cannot act.

- We are not good actors. We are bad actors.

- [April] I was gonna say, we are very bad actors.

- K, we're gonna give it another try.

- Oh my god, I'm so tired.

- The funny thing is, I don't think you're joking.

- Be nice.

- Uh, am I not being nice?

- No, that was rude.

- I didn't think it was rude.

- Okay, sorry. I just felt threatened.

- I'm going to hurt you.

(laughing)

You feel threatened now?

- No, idiot.

- Weird.

Yeah!

(applause)

- I thought maybe cookies will make everybody feel better.

- [Davey] Just trying to get something that'll wake you up.

- Oh no, I am wide awake now.

I'm gonna be wide awake until 3am. Perfect.

- [Davey] 3am challenge tonight?

- Yes.

- [Davey] Did you guys all wash your hands?

- It's perfect.

- [Davey] Ender?

- Yep.

- [Davey] Wow.

Did you wash your hands?

- Me?

- [Davey] Yeah.

- Always.

- [Davey] Uh.

- [Zade] Dad, what's the 3am challenge?

- [Davey] I don't know. You do something at 3am

and you act like a ghost if something scary happens.

- [April] Nothing ever really happens that's scary though.

Alexa, play The Muppets soundtrack.

These are the songs I used to grow up to.

(upbeat music)

♪ It's time to start the music. ♪

♪ It's time to dim the lights. ♪

- Alright, guys. We are ending the vlog now.

Great day today.

- Except for when you tried to burn down the garage.

- I don't know what she's talkin' about.

- [April] Stupid. This is so dumb.

(fake vomit sound)

It stinks so bad in here.

- All you smell is lighter fluid.

- [April] And smoke.

- I'm making more of an effort to enjoy more moments with

my kids and I feel like they're growing up too fast.

And so I did that today and I liked it.

And everything was awesome and we had a fun time at dinner.

And everybody was laughing and everything was great.

So, sometimes enjoying those moments with the kids

doesn't involve picking up the camera.

So you guys might miss some of that but

I gotta do it for me. Do you wanna go watch "This is Us"?

- Yeah. I do. Right now.

- [Davey] Okay. You're gonna be up till like 5

in the morning or 7 in the morning?

- It's already eleven.

- Okay, I'll see you guys tomorrow.
