Cullen and Katie: New Year, New Baby Part 3

[thenightowl]

I love them, how when MG was crying, Katie was making sure she asked and stopped crying before they turned the water back on, I love how Cullen was singing to help MG brush her teeth! That little girl is going to have a big advantage over the other internet kids because her parents are teaching her.

Cullen likes to rile up the subscribers lol

I just want to say how much I adore these guys, I am thankful for them especially today after Ellie and jareds latest vlog.

They are teaching a great example. They are fun. They are exactly who they say they are. Nothing is forced or set up they truly are a happy family in love. They treat there animals with love and respect. They have loving normal relationships with their parents not the haven't cut the cord type like missy. They educate their daughter, show her manners and also feed her a variety of food!!!

Props to Katie and Cullen for keeping it real, showing us normality and being great parents whilst doing it!

The only negative I have for these guys is hanging around with b&m and e&j they could do so much better.

I agree with all of this. They make me want to be a better parent with my little girl!

I'm a long time subscriber of C+K and newly following Dave Ramsey's extreme money makeover. I heard them mention him once in a vlog a few months ago and then I went looking for old vlogs where they talked aboout him and it seems they were big followers. Does anyone think they still follow his advice? I'm just curious because they have made a lot of big purchases in the past few months (dining table, tv etc) and travelled a lot.

Oh, did I say how much I love this family =) Cullen's drone montages are awesome compared to BM and EJ. He also puts other video intertwined with them. Oh, can't wait to meet baby boy Bamachick1101

I just don't get why these guys are "friends" with the Lumps and E & J. Do they really need 9 year old subscribers that badly? They have got to be able to see through their BS. It really bothers me. I know they had to back off the friendship with Austin and Britt, but they are more mature and much better parents, and appear to be in a hugely better relationship. So why even lower themselves? Just judging by the way they are in their vlogs, when they went to their rooms during that "epic winter vacay", they had to be saying, "How many more days?" to each other. They would never use MG for clickbait the way Jared and Ellie used the kids in the bathtub, or expose her like that. They talk to her and try to turn everything into a learning experience. Katie was asking MG about what shape the hula hoop was. I don't know. It just doesn't sit right.

I started watching before 10k subscribers (Jan 2014) after finding Katie's video when she got stuck on the road during our ice storm. I liked them and continued watching.
I never watched their old stuff but by then they had already been vlogging for a few years so I'd think without DB and EJ. Their growth would have been even slower.
I remember noticing how much the sub count went up during playlist or whatever. So I think they realize how much the "friendship" has and continues to help gain subscribers.
Cullen seems to enjoy what he does and I do not think they cater as much to the 10yr kids. Their demographic is older but without those 2 couples they'd probably have even less subscribers at this point on their own .

I watch them daily and dont recall them talking about Dave Ramsey. E+J said a few times that they are followers of Dave, and so am I.

They certainly did use MG as clickbait. "Baby Trapped In Washing Machine" was a stupid impulsive move on Cullen's part when they were promoting laundry balls. And they weren't exactly transparent when they were selling a diet/meal plan. I believe they befriended DB and E&J specifically to grow their channel, it was pragmatic.

Fortunately, they've had a measure of success that they're comfortable with now. Cullen doesn't seem desperate to prove himself and is taking things more in stride. He's not acting like an obnoxious fool, like some people, because that is not who he is and he knows Gaines is watching him. He's been cool since Gaines learned to walk and talk. I don't think they'll be spending too much time with DB or E&J in the future. I really look forward to their vlogs, they keep getting better and better.

[lmmomSD]

I sure hope not. It makes me sideye them and wonder if they're as sincere as I think they are when they spend time with those bozos. I think you're right that Cullen has mellowed some as MG has started talking more.

Well, they haven't exactly talked about them, and they certainly didn't tweet anything during the scandal. I am just speculating. But they were "best friends" before Austin got caught screwing a wall and doing lots of other lovely things on video. Maybe they are still friends. But they don't seem to be vacationing together or talking about them!

They never vacation together, though. We'll see when all the whacky YT conventions happen if they hangout or not.

Can we hope that there will be no more Spring/Summer/Fall/Winter DBEJCK Vacay's? I enjoyed the one last June when they went to Florida, but the Winter one was awful. Look we got shirts and sweatshirts made for everyone! Look! We found a great home to stay in! Your share for the week is $3000 plus expenses! Ugh. I'm wondering if DB and EJ's behaviors were the reason CK left early? I know they said it was for other reason's, but I still wonder.

[jesswhytho]

Cullen's drone footage is honestly beautiful in some shots and it's always well placed in the vlog imo

I seriously hope so. I hope they are starting to distance themselves. The Lumps and E&J are just ick, and the vacays are awful, with all the "break the internet!"crap and hashtags. C&K are so much better than this. Cullen gets on my nerves, but he is a good husband and father. And Katie is an awesome mother, and laughs at Cullen's jokes. They don't need the 9 year olds, and it would be awful if they started catering to them.
