5 Times Babies “Helped” While Cleaning — And They’re Just Too Adorable!

0

We all know that babies are the true bosses of our households. They dictate our sleep, our routines, and even our cleaning schedules. But every now and then, they decide to “help” out with the chores. And by help, we mean they give it their best shot while entertaining us with their adorable antics.

These five babies “helping” with cleaning are so heartwarming and hilarious, they’ll make you want to grab a mop and join in on the fun — or maybe just the fun part!

1. The bed-making baby’s contagious giggles.
There’s nothing quite like the infectious laughter of a baby. A simple task turned into a game of peek-a-boo with a sheet, and we’re all here for it!

2. The baby gardener spreading the love.
This baby decided that yard work was the next best thing after crawling. With a tiny rake in hand, he might have been spreading the sticks and leaves around more than cleaning up. But hey, it’s the effort that counts, right?

3. The window-cleaning toddler’s unique technique.
Most of us use window cleaners, but this innovative toddler decided spit was the way to go. Resourceful and cute? A winning combination!

4. The experienced dish-washer.
Toddlers and water: a chaotic, yet charming mix. This little one took on the role of the family’s dish-washer, and when his mom pointed out the water mess, he had the perfect retort.

5. The swifter-riding baby’s efficient strategy.
Why walk when you can roll and clean at the same time? This baby has figured out the secret to multitasking.

So, the next time you’re stressing over a messy home, maybe let your baby “help” out. You might just end up with more mess, but you’ll certainly have a ton of fun and laughter. And isn’t that what life’s all about?

Remember to capture these moments and share them with the world — who wouldn’t want to see such adorable helpers in action?

She’s a very smart, courageous and brave young girl.

A 14-year-old girl in Southern California is being hailed as a hero after she saved herself and her 4-year-old niece from a robber.

It all started in broad daylight, at 3:30 in the afternoon at Savannah Jones’s home east of Los Angeles. Savannah, a responsible 14-year-old, had been babysitting her toddler niece, Zoyee, when she heard a knock at the door.

 

Savannah was immediately suspicious. They weren’t expecting any visitors. Then the knocking became louder. Savannah crept up to the peephole and looked out.

A man Savannah had never seen before stood on the porch.

Savannah thought fast and– grabbing Zoyee and her phone– dashed into the bathroom. That’s when the man kicked in the front door.

“I was very scared,” Savannah later told the reporter in the video below. “Not so much for myself, but just Zoyee.”

It may sound like dramatic words from a young teen on TV, but the texts Savannah sent her mom from inside the bathroom prove her concern for the toddler’s safety went above her own.

Maria Muratalla, Savannah’s mom, was stuck in traffic when she saw her daughter’s text. She said it was gut-wrenching, not being there with the girls. Thankfully, she wasn’t

completely powerless to help. Maria called a neighbor and asked her to call 911.

Meanwhile Savannah and Zoyee stayed huddled in the bathroom. Savannah could hear the man rummaging through her mom’s belongings on the other side of the door, but she remained calm and encouraged her toddler niece to stay silent.

Thanks to Savannah’s quick-thinking, the man left without ever finding the girls.

“Just One More Hug?” Little Boy Melts Our Hearts Chasing After His Dad For A Hug

0

Hugs are an integral part of being a human. Humans need physical connection, and hugging is powerful medicine. In addition to making us feel better emotionally, hugs create physical benefits. When the little boy in the video below ran out to the driveway for just one more hug, he was conveying a need. As adults, we sometimes forget about hugs and miss out on these side effects. We explored some of the benefits of hugging.

Stress Reduction: Hugging reduces the level of a hormone our bodies produce called cortisol. When we reduce our cortisol levels naturally with a hug or two, it also helps with sleeping problems, skin issues, weight control, lower immunity levels, and more!

Improves Heart Health: Hugging and hand-holding are simple types of human contact that can lower blood pressure, which reduces our risk of stroke, heart disease, and heart attacks.

Helps with Relationships: Any type of relationship can benefit from hugging. Hugging our friends seals the bond we have. Hugging a spouse or partner causes our bodies to release specific hormones (oxytocin) that help us feel closer to each other.

 

Pain Reduction: Our bodies produce natural pain-relieving hormones (endorphins). The action and response (hormone production) improves circulation and creates a natural barrier to pain.

Improves Self-Esteem: All humans crave physical touch and reassurance of love from other humans. When we get hugs, they can reduce feelings of despair and help us feel safe and loved, offering a sense of belonging.

 

As you go about your day, remember this young boy running out to catch his dad for “just one more hug.” When you need an emotional pick-me-up, get a hug. If you see a friend with a frown, give them a hug. Being kind, especially in a tough world, can benefit you in many ways. The world definitely needs more kindness and more hugs!

Adorable Baby’s Hearty Laughter Over Poker Chips Is The Definition Of Pure Joy.

0

There’s nothing quite like the sound of a baby’s laughter. That’s why parents are willing to do just about anything to make their little ones giggle so much they can’t stop. Some make silly faces or lightly tickle them, but Samantha Maples has discovered a particularly unique way to initiate a laughing fit from her baby daughter — and it involves poker chips.

 

Her method is simple: Samantha simply takes a few poker chips and gently places them on her baby’s head. This, for some reason, is quite literally the funniest thing ever to this adorable little girl. For added fun, Samantha tries her best to stack as many chips as possible before her baby knocks them over.

 

If this game had a winner, I’d say that the baby is the champion because, so far, Mom can barely get any chips on her head before she expertly tosses them on the floor. Either way, the end result is lots of laughter, so everyone is a winner, really!

 

Watch Samantha’s baby giggle away in the adorable video below.

Families are unique…there’s no doubt about that. Each one has something that no other family has—and this is a family like no other.

Brittany and Briana, 35, decided to attend the Twins Days Festival last 2017 in, you’ve guessed it right, Twinsburg, Ohio.
They had fun and met other twins too.

A post shared by Josh, Jeremy, Brittany, Briana (@salyerstwins)

Then, they saw Josh and Jeremy Salyers, 37, at the festival and thought they were really handsome.

Soon, Josh fell in love with Brittany and Jeremy to Briana.
This is something that you don’t see every day. They also admitted being close to each other and enjoying their hobbies as siblings and friends.

 

After a year, the Salyers twins proposed to the two beautiful sisters, and soon, they tied the knot in a double wedding on August 5, 2018.

The two lovely couples decided to live in one home in Virginia.
They would often post photos on their Instagram account. The two couples wear the same clothes, making it hard for the people around them to distinguish who’s who.

Looks like a lot of fun, right?

After two years of being married, Brittany and Briana posted that they were both pregnant!

“We are thrilled and grateful to experience overlapping pregnancies and to share this news with you all,” they posted on their Instagram account salyerstwins.

Sweet boy can’t contain emotions when ‘lifelong dream’ of getting dog is fulfilled

0

Adam Grimpo waited nine years for his dream to finally come true.

But after almost a decade, the Ohio boy finally got what he wanted.
Adam was gifted the dog he had always wanted on his 12th birthday.

His mom, however, wasn’t going to just give it to him.

So, she decided to tease him a bit before surprising him with his very own dog.

Adam’s emotional reaction to the big surprise was caught on video and had more than 30 million people in tears within two days.

The video starts with Adam unwrapping some presents.
“He’s been begging for a dog since he was 3 years old,” the text in the video states.

 

It was a basketball dog toy and a Stranger Things-themed walkie-talkie dog toy, according to ABC News.
But he doesn’t see his dad behind him, walking toward him with a puppy in his arms.

Mom, Sarah Grimpo, pretended like it was an accident and she had no idea that they were dog toys.

“Are you serious? They’re dog toys? I’m so sorry, bud, I guess you’re gonna need a dog,” Sarah can be heard saying off camera.

That’s when Adam looks to the left and his jaw completely drops.

Little boy and girl steal show doing the Cha Cha to Dance Monkey in competition

0

Dancesport is a very challenging competition, but these kids made it look very easy.

Dancesport requires special skills and precision.

The discipline and the training it needs makes a lot of people very intimidated to join these competitions.

 

The competition showcases couples in different categories performing different styles of ballroom dancing.

Sirius and Yilinka are kids from the Netherlands that performed in the Dutch Open last November of 2022.

In the video, Sirius and Yilinka performed the cha-cha which really entertained not only the judges but also the people who saw the video.

They danced to “Dance Monkey”
They performed first but you cannot see any hesitation on their faces.

The name of this dance is derived from the shuffling sound that the dancers do when they dance.

This dance also showcases hip and foot movement that requires a specific form.

This makes cha-cha and other forms of dancesport very technical and specific.

This makes the judges of competitions like this very focused and attentive to every detail.
