- [Bailey] He's still on his cranky part.
- You are the dirtiest baby
that has ever been.
(laughs) What?
(upbeat music)
(playful music)
Good morning, everyone.
Rise and shine.
It's our first day of camping.
And look at this little guy.
Are you camping?
- Yeah.
- [Chris] Are you having fun?
- Yeah.
- [Chris] Yeah?
It's a good trip so far?
Whoa, careful.
How did you sleep in your tent?
- Good.
- I forgot to bring matches.
And now Parker's trying to start a fire with a stick.
Have you ever watched the show Survivor?
- Yeah.
- So you know how to do this.
I think the secret is actually to give up
and go to the store and get some matches.
- They have a lighter.
- [Chris] They have a lighter?
- Yeah.
- [Chris] You gonna borrow their lighter?
- Sure?
- Man, Jacob found fire already.
Survival skills.
(cheerful music)
Do you have a stick?
Can I see your stick?
Ooh, that's a good one.
Have you been doing these drawings on the ground?
Are those your drawings?
Yeah.
We got our morning campfire going.
(cheerful music)
This year we are camping with four other families,
which is really good,
because if one of us forgets something,
the other person can rescue us.
Like, if someone forgot matches
for some ridiculous reason.
And it means that there's a bunch of kids
for my kids to play with.
So Bailey and her friend Ava
were planning on sleeping in a tent together
last night on Ava's campground,
but all the ground there was all tilty,
so they didn't put up a tent,
which meant that I put up Jacob's tent last night.
He wasn't gonna set up his until tomorrow.
But last night I set up this tent,
and it was pitch black out when I set up the tent.
So I'm pretty proud of that achievement right there.
How did you sleep last night?
- Good.
- [Chris] You slept well?
- [Bailey] Yeah.
(playful music)
- You getting dirty?
(Duncan babbles)
Uh-oh.
Here comes trouble.
It's Jacob, master explorer.
How'd he get up there?
What are you doing?
Are you intentionally getting dirty?
(Bailey laughs)
- [Parker] The leaves are so green.
- [Chris] What?
You're coating yourself in dirt.
What, are you doing this, too?
- It's fun.
(Chris laughs)
(Duncan laughs)
- You're putting it on your head?
So, if you've watched any of our past camping vlogs,
you know that the kids, they get really dirty
over the course of the camping trip.
Duncan, I think, wins it for most dirty quickest.
- [Bailey] He's still on his cranky part.
- [Chris] You are the dirtiest baby
that has ever been.
(laughs) What?
Have you been rubbing it in your hair?
No.
(laughs) What?
Why are you doing this?
- I love how we can go from, like,
normal human people to creatures of the wild,
like, in one day. (laughs)
Look at Duncan.
He's cracking me up.
(playful music)
Apparently, a bowl of dirt
is the hottest baby toy of the season, folks.
I've never seen Duncan spend more time on anything before.
He's very invested in his bowl of dirt.
I'm actually sitting at the table right now,
making lunches for the kids.
We planned to do peanut butter and jelly sandwiches
with some snacks and extras
with, like, protein and stuff
for their lunches for every single day.
There's not gonna be any variety.
We're gonna keep it really simple.
See, I'm making that.
Mike and Maya.
That's the gluten-free one.
Packing as many loaves of bread
to feed our whole family for the week
did take up a lotta space, though.
So, keep that in mind if you're doing the same thing.
- Like, he needs a shower.
A little shake's not gonna do it.
- [Jessica] He has brown eyebrows.
Brown hair.
Duncan with brown hair.
I love you, bub, but I'm making food right now.
- This is so much dirt.
- It's okay, it all washes off.
I love seeing my kids dirty like this.
It's my absolute favorite.
I think it's really important for kids to get dirty
and for them to be aware that dirt just washes off,
like, Duncan is maximum dirty right now,
and you stick him in some water,
and you can't even tell.
It's not a big deal.
He's doing great.
Especially since he didn't put it in his mouth,
which is kind of advanced for our kids.
- [Colleen] Oh, Bailey, don't eat, don't eat,
yuck, yuck, yuck. (laughs)
Bailey, don't eat the sand.
- No, it's just my cake.
- We finally made it to the lake,
and now we're gonna catch some fish.
Right, Jake?
- Yeah.
- [Chris] What size fish are you gonna catch?
- We forgot the fishing...
- Oh, we forgot.
Forgot the fishing gear.
Take two.
Short hike back up to camp,
now we've got our fishing gear,
and we can fish for fish.
Little easier to fish with fishing gear, huh?
- Yeah.
(gentle music)
- Parker's trying to fish, too, now.
Did you catch something?
Lift up on your pole, lift up.
Oh, it just got stuck on something.
So, it's kind of unlikely that they'll catch anything.
We aren't using live bait
or anything that smells delicious,
it's just rubber bait.
- It ate one. - What?
It took your bait?
Your bait's still there.
Bailey's trying her hand at fishing.
(water splashing)
- [Jessica] He's liking watching his brothers splash.
- Is that fun?
(Duncan exclaims)
(playful music)
It's been a great day so far.
The kids got a little bit sunburned,
so that was a little bit of a dad fail.
We went fishing and didn't catch any fish
but had fun doing it.
Swam in the lake.
And now look at these guys.
- We got up here by ourselves!
- [Chris] You got up there by yourself?
- Yeah. - I did, too!
- [Chris] How did you get up there?
- That way.
- [Chris] You guys are up really high.
That is way up there.
- Hooray, we got up here!
Hooray, we got up here!
♪ I go broke, I go broke ♪
- And we made a nest.
- [Chris] You made a nest up there?
- [Catherine] Yeah.
- That is our nest.
Yes.
- Isn't it pretty?
That's a tree.
- That's a tree.
And I think that is a tightrope up there.
- That's Parker's best friend Catherine
up there on that rock with him.
Jacob, you got so sunburned.
- I know.
- [Chris] Oh, man.
That was a rough one.
- It's nothing.
- [Chris] It's nothin'?
How was your first day of camp?
- Hot.
- [Chris] Hot.
Don't let the baby go on the ground.
I just cleaned him.
- Look at Jakey.
And I do want to say about his sunburn,
we applied sunscreen on Jacob three times,
and he was only out for a couple hours.
He just has my very pale skin, poor guy.
- [Chris] How is camping going for you, Bailey?
- Great.
- [Chris] Are you moving tents now?
- Yeah.
- [Chris] So Bailey's going from this tent,
where she slept last night with her friend Ava,
and she's going over to that tent over there,
the blue one.
- And I'm gonna sleep in it with Ava and Catherine.
- [Chris] Ava and Catherine are gonna be in that one.
So the girls are in that tent,
some boys are gonna be in this tent,
including this gentleman right here.
Are you ready for tent sleeping?
- Not really.
- [Chris] Not really?
- Nope.
- [Chris] Why not?
- 'Cause we still need to get another person's stuff out
so that we can set ours up.
- [Chris] Oh, okay.
But are you excited about the prospects
of sleeping in a tent with your buddies?
- Yeah.
- Alright.
We got Duncan all clean, gave him a shower,
and then we fed him.
Is that yummy?
Is that a yummy burrito?
Yeah, it's good.
It's good and messy.
How are the camp tacos this year, Bailey?
- I didn't get a taco.
- [Chris] What?
- I got a burrito.
- [Chris] Well, it was serve yourself,
so you served yourself a burrito.
You opted out of the tacos.
Yeah, you could have had a taco.
Tacos were offered to you.
(gentle music)
(Duncan babbles)
- Yes, yes, you're the best.
Yes, yes, you're the best.
Yes, yes, you're the best!
Yes, you're the best!
- Hi.
(strumming guitar)
Let's talk about what we learned today.
We learned that Parker knows how to make a fire with sticks,
like on Survivor.
We learned that it's okay to get a little messy sometimes.
And finally we learned that Jacob's first day of camp
was hot.
Thanks for watching, everybody.
We'll see ya next time.
(Parker laughs)
Fish, you caught it!
Alright, that fish is not big enough to eat,
so we gotta put it back.
But that is awesome.
Do you wanna try and catch another one?
Oh, man, okay, let's bait it back up.
Catherine, did you catch that?
That's awesome.
- Is it big enough?
- [Man] You wanna hold it?
- Who's is that?
- [Man] Hold it next to her.
- Catherine. - Okay.
