(bass notes)
- Morning guys!
Welcome to the vlog.
It's Tuesday and we have
a very action-packed day.
Bryce is here getting ready to head off to school,
and then I'm gonna go do my Destiny 2
livestream on the PC.
Very excited about that.
It's been a long time coming.
I'm excited about it.
But it's gonna be a shorter day
because this boy has a doctor's appointment
to go get checked out his potential hernia.
So, we had a regular doctor check-up.
She goes, "Yeah, there's something down there
"you should probably get checked out."
So now we're going to a specialist.
He'll probably confirm the same thing
and then at that point, we'll schedule his surgery
to have him fixed.
Get him fixed.
Sierra's upstairs getting ready herself.
Tiffany's doing the same,
she's gonna go to the gym.
I'm getting ready to get on my morning,
my Tuesday morning call.
I have a 30 minute conference call that
I get on every Tuesday now,
so I'm gonna do that.
And, we'll talk to you guys soon.
- And...
- [Clintus] And...
- We're going dirt bike riding again.
- [Clintus] You wanna go dirt bike riding again?
Heck yeah, buddy.
- Woo!
- [Clintus] We're doing it, you and me.
Grandpa might be coming, might be not.
I dunno, we'll see.
Either way, it's just me and you.
Either way, either way.
Alrighty then,
Bryce checked out of school a little early.
Heading to basically the Phoenix
Children's Hospital to see...
Are we seeing a urologist?
Is that the actual guy?
- [Tiffany] General surgeon.
- General surgeon. - Pediatric general surgeon.
- Pediatric general surgeon, that's right.
Okay, thank you.
There was two different options and we
chose that option, so,
we're gonna go get a little check-up
for Bryce.
Talk about his hernia situation and
hear about the...
I guess plan of action.
If it is surgery, when it's gonna happen,
and what the surgery's gonna be like,
what to expect so this little boy knows
what's going on
with his junk.
(laughing)
- [Tiffany] You do have skinny arms.
- Done with appointment.
Confirmed, Bryce has a hernia.
I mean as soon as she saw it she was like,
"Yep. That's pretty much a hernia."
She was able to push back his guts
back into his body,
and then she kind of just went over
the whole procedure.
She literally drew a picture for Bryce.
Like here's your body and here's the things
and the things and this is what we're gonna do
and this is what I'm gonna do.
And she laid it all out for him which he...
You understand all that stuff that she said,
for the most part?
- Yeah. - Right. She's really nice.
Tiffany was actually just saying how she really
liked the doctor.
She's very pleased with the choice, so.
The next step is basically you get a phone call
from the scheduler in the next week or so,
and we'll actually schedule
the surgery for Bryce.
Gonna be here at Phoenix Children Hospital.
Well, that sucked.
Traffic was horrible.
We were basically downtown, downtown Phoenix,
during rush hour and
I mean it's just basically the worst time
to be on the freeways.
It took us an hour to get home and it is
actually right now in this exact moment,
sundown.
My watch just switched over to
sunrise for tomorrow, so...
Not gonna be able to squeeze a ride in.
And I said well he can just gear up and ride
you know, around the corner,
and he said no, he wanted to ride with me.
Which, I appreciate that.
I wanted to ride, too.
So, we're gonna try to squeeze a ride in,
I don't know. I'm getting my,
I'm getting my stitches on Thursday,
so I probably can't ride then.
Maybe Friday?
Tomorrow we're going to Gilbert
to meet back up with Austin,
pro-scooter rider.
And, I think,
we might be,
we might be doing something with the,
with the, some scooters.
So I'm looking forward to that,
so stay tuned for that. Scooters tomorrow,
more scooters tomorrow, guys! More scooters.
I know you guys were asking for more scooters.
We'll bring our scooters,
I think we're going to the park,
see if you can ride at the skate park.
- Yeah.
- With scooter.
So no dirt bike ride unfortunately
but, the vlog's not over, guys.
It's Tuesday and I asked Tiff,
"Hey what are we doing for dinner",
and she goes, "What day is it?"
I'm like, "Tuesday", she goes "Duh".
- [Tiffany] Duh! - So, tacos!
I see it out on the table now.
We got some Old El Paso
bold shells and some rice, so.
Wanna help mom make dinner?
- No.
- Aww.
- [Tiffany] Aww.
- I'm gonna help Tiffany make dinner, then.
- [Tiffany] Ss, ss. Sizzle sizzle.
- [Clintus] It's not even heated up yet.
Turkey, some green onions.
So white onions are cooked with the meat
to get some flavor. - [Tiffany] Well not always.
- [Clintus] To get some flavor.
- I had a half an onion so I figured
I might as well use it.
- [Clintus] Right, right.
And then the green onions are for toppings,
some tomato, and then what do we got here?
We got some rice, taco rice.
We got the bold spicy cheddar-flavored
taco shells,
and then regular taco shells and soft tacos.
Lots of tacos.
- [Tiffany] We're gonna make some double-deckers.
- [Clintus] Double-deckers, I love it. Love it.
- [Tiffany] Thanks, my dear.
- I know what someone's getting for Christmas.
- [Tiffany] I'm gonna buy myself some
before Christmas.
- Yeah. Our knives are bad.
- [Tiffany] Spend some money on some knives.
- And even that, I think we should get a good
sharpener.
I think if we had a good sharpener,
right? - [Tiffany] Yeah.
- We got the bar thing but I don't know
how that works,
I don't know how to sharpen a knife.
Like, one of those things you stick it in,
you know?
- [Tiffany] Yeah. Ooh, be careful.
Stop. Ooh that scares me I don't like that.
- [Clintus] Progress continues,
the meat,
the beans,
the rice.
Now we're just finishing up the shells,
put those in the oven to bake 'em.
Get 'em crispy.
- This is hard math trying to figure out
how many tacos each person will eat.
Especially 'cause I'm like mixing them up.
- [Clintus] I eat four, Bryce eats four,
you eat two, Sierra eats two, done.
- Sometimes.
- [Clintus] True. It does change up a little bit
from time to time.
So Sierra's been at school for the last
couple of hours.
She's doing something for her
National Juniors Honor Society.
Some kind of parent thing
was going on tonight so she was like
babysitting the kids,
something like that.
And then also it was the first night of
playoffs for the eighth grade volleyball team
so I think she was there earlier to watch that.
But, it's about 6:30, time to go pick her up.
I'm gonna go do that while Tiffany finishes up
dinner and hopefully, cross my fingers,
I can swoop- pick her up,
be back home just in time for dinner.
Alright, she's returned.
We've returned.
How was it?
- Good. - [Clintus] Good.
- But it wasn't what I was expecting.
- Yeah.
She volunteered her time.
There was like a parent meeting going on,
right? - Yeah.
- And she was babysitting some kids.
And what was the,
what do you think the youngest kid was?
- Kindergarten.
- Kindergarten. The oldest?
- Fifth grade.
- Fifth grade, like Bryce's age?
- Yeah.
- Okay. So,
not what you expected.
But hey, you volunteered an hour and a half,
right? She had,
was your goal 20? Hours?
- 20 hours but 10 of them have to be group hours
or it was what I just did,
so ten of them.
So I have one point five.
- Cool, alright.
She has to volunteer 20 hours before
the end of the year?
- Mhmmm. - Okay we gotta figure that out.
We gotta help her find some
ten hours of volunteer work so, um,
we'll be looking for that
in the next couple of months.
But now,
I'm gonna volunteer my time and eat some tacos.
- No. That doesn't count.
(chuckling)
- Counts for my belly.
- [Bryce] Ew! Scorpion scorpion scorpion!
- What? What?
- [Bryce] Scorpion scorpion scorpion!
Ah! It's alive!
- [Clintus] Hold on, stop.
Oh gee, it's right there by the door.
- [Bryce] Oh my, I just saw it crawling
all the way over there.
- [Clintus] Okay, good, thanks for the heads up.
- [Bryce] (groaning)
- [Clintus] Scorpion alert. We found a scorpion.
- [Bryce] He was by my foot he went (growling).
- Good thing I have shoes on.
I don't even know if I told you guys about the
last scorpion.
Did you, did you vlog the last scorpion you found?
- [Tiffany] Mm, I don't remember.
- I don't remember. It was upstairs, right?
It was upstairs.
Did you guys, did we vlog that?
Tiffany found a scorpion upstairs,
first time ever.
- [Tiffany] First one upstairs.
- First time ever found one upstairs and
it was like (gagging).
So, yeah, alright.
We got one downstairs now.
Squashed that bad guy, threw him away.
Back to dinner.
Maybe we'll go on a scorpion hunt after dinner.
What do you guys think?
- Yeah.
- [Clintus] It's been awhile since we went looking.
But first, tacos.
Taco Tuesday, heck yeah.
Let's go boysss.
(gravel crunching)
Ohp! Is that one?
Nope, yep, there's one.
All the way in the far back corner of my yard.
First one.
Alright, so we got one for sure.
You see 'em? Oh yeah.
Nice and bright.
Alright we'll keep sweeping.
We'll come back to you buddy.
Ohp- two.
Ohp yep, that was two.
Underneath that rock, you see 'em?
He's like crawling in there trying to hide.
So we got two, far far corners of the house,
of our yard.
Not where I found the last bunch,
it's interesting.
Ohp! There's a third.
Damn, alright.
Same thing, all on this side of the yard.
Alright so, I thought I'd just kinda
wrap back up, circle back around to,
the whole thing with Bryce's hernia.
So confirmed, he does have a,
what's it called?
Inguinal hernia.
There's two different kinds of hernias.
There's inguinal and then there's one
that you get in your belly button.
It's not the one in the belly button,
it's down low.
And, like I said,
the doctor saw it right away and was like,
"Yep, you have a hernia,
"I don't have to feel anything."
But, you know,
she was able to push back his guts.
At this point we're just gonna wait for the
hospital to call us,
schedule the appointment for the surgery.
He will go in, he'll be put under,
they'll operate, they'll fix it,
he'll wake up, he'll be in recovery probably
for like an hour or so, make sure he's all good,
and then he'll get to go home that day.
He'll probably miss one or two days of school
depending on how he feels.
But he will most likely miss
two weeks of basketball.
So I know he was kinda bummed about that,
I'm obviously bummed about that.
Coach isn't, you know, gonna be happy about it,
obviously, but he's gotta heal and be good to go.
Do it now before he's in pain,
do it now before-
he doesn't feel any discomfort.
Like he doesn't even realize it's there
unless he looks down and sees a bulge.
He's like,"Tthat's not supposed to be there."
So, get it taken care of now before it
becomes an issue and a problem.
'Cause if a hernia left unchecked can be a
serious problem, so.
I'm glad that he spoke up.
And to all you kids out there,
if you ever see something weird or funky
with your body, don't be scared to ask
your parents to take a look and check it out
because it's better safe than be sorry.
And, a lot of times things can
if caught early, can be fixed and repaired
with minimal issues, minimal discomfort.
But if you let it go,
let it go unchecked,
it can be a real issue and cause more problems
than it's worth.
Well guys, it's 2 A.M.
I just wrapped up
a late night stream.
It was gonna be a short one,
I always have intentions of it being a short one,
and inevitably the support is overwhelming
and awesome at that...
It's a different group of people.
You know I stream during the day,
not everyone can watch because of school and work
and whatever.
And so I stream at night and it's like a whole
new crowd of people,
and I get the same amount of support that I do
during the day,
and so it ends up being a long stream
like my daytime streams.
And so, I'm not complaining at all,
it was awesome.
If you were there, thank you very much.
I appreciate you.
It was awesome.
Destiny 2 on PC is awesome and
I'm really excited about it.
I'm really excited about the future of the game,
and I'm excited about the future of my channel
over on Twitch.
