It’s always interesting to get to peek inside a day in the life of other people. Especially those with an entirely different lifestyle. There’s not many people that can relate to the life of a family with 5 toddlers and two older boys!
Quintuplets are born once in every 55 million births. That’s a 0.00000002% chance.
It’s still more likely than winning the lottery, but is so rare it’s something most parents never even consider a possibility.
Twins? Maybe – that’s about a 0.03% chance. But quintuplets? The idea doesn’t even cross the mind. But for Skyler and Jaime Scott, it became a reality when they got pregnant for the third time.
No one can be prepared for quintuplets, but this couple has done an amazing job adjusting their lives to accommodate for these five adorable little ones.
It’s a bonus that they have two older sons to help them out!
Skyler, the most enthusiastic dad I’ve ever seen, takes us on a journey through the family’s morning routine. He starts by pouring 5 bottles of milk, then goes up to the kid’s rooms to wake them up. They’re all patiently waiting in their cribs and look very happy to see their dad!
The toddlers are split into two rooms, one for the three boys and another for the two girls.
One of the big brothers helps bring the quintuplets down for some breakfast. Even with the help of the older boys, the adults are outnumbered!
But these toddlers are so well behaved, and happily hang out in the lounge drinking their morning milk.
Things get a little messier by lunch time – but it’s so cute, who cares!
The children’s grandmother comes over to lend an extra hand, and does some incredible fancy hairstyles for the kids!
These are going to be the flyest kids at the pre-school.
Jamie notices something suspicious… the boys have been playing quietly for 20 minutes on their own. Toddlers? Quiet? Something doesn’t add up.
She goes in to check on them and finds two of them in some hilarious impromptu nap positions! Kids really can just fall asleep anywhere, can’t they?
Skyler and Jamie talk us through some of the developments these little angels are going through, like starting to recognize their own shadows, some of the words they’ve learned, and the animal noises they can make.
Daisy asks for some snuggles while her parents are giving a vlog update.
My heart!
Jamie talks about how important it is for both her and Skyler to get some one on one time with their older boys. I can imagine in a busy house like that, a lot of attention is focused on the five little ones.
You can really tell how much this couple loves each other and how much pride they take in raising their beautiful family. It’s inspiring!
I think a lot of people would find this job overwhelming, but the Scott family have really found a way to embrace it.
They’ve got some pretty cute kids!
You can keep up with the family and the kids as they grow up, by subscribing to their YouTube channel for more vlogs, or follow them on Instagram!
