Spoiler alert-- are you ready for a behind-the-scenes
look at the latest episode?
Make sure you're all caught up on the new season
of "Little People, Big World."
(theme music)
How's it going, good-looking?
Don't work too hard over there.
Can you hand me a box?
I got this.
Get it, J. Look, we have our own mover.
We don't need anyone else.
Jackson, he was in his walker right at that time.
So he was--
He loved it.
--still manageable, but like--
Pushing all the boxes around in an empty living
room, he loved it
Hey, Murphy, do not eat the boxes.
And I think Murph was fine too.
I don't remember Murph getting--
Murph was still easy at that point.
He wasn't house-trained.
But that was really the only problem we had with him was--
Yeah.
Both houses have wood floors, though,
so even not being house-trained, it's been pretty nice.
Yeah.
I'm leaving.
Goodbye.
Babe, be productive.
I will do what I please.
Guess what, no one's going to be able to tell
me how to do things. - Oh, dear.
Goodbye.
I had all my friends at the (inaudible)..
And it was, like, all right, go time.
Box is made, put stuff in box, box on truck.
Truck goes to the new house.
It wasn't like this.
They could shove things in a box and just send it off.
We didn't have to think about how we feel about things.
We just had to do things.
(laughter)
Tell us what happened to the nightstand.
I'll tell you what happened to the nightstand.
So I was packing up.
And then I knew we should do this this way.
But I was like, oh, do you know what, I should just make sure
that Tori and me are on the same page, which
I just knew we would be on the same page about.
Could we talk about how mad Tori would be if she saw
me just putting all her stuff--
(chuckles) Tori is always more of a--
(phone ringing)
--sorry.
Hey.
Hi.
Hey, what do you want me to do with all your stuff
at your nightstand?
Can we not just put the nightstand in there?
With all the stuff in the nightstand?
And she was totally not on the same page.
But I just knew this was the right way to do things.
So I continued to do it my way, even though Tori told me--
No, I'm pretty sure the way I saw it, though,
after seeing the episode, was you currently on the phone,
literally dumping stuff into a bucket after you were saying,
Tori, what do you want me to do with all of this stuff?
Like you had already done it before you had even--
Maybe that's how it went.
--asked what you should do with it.
All of my beautiful, fine necklaces
are still tangled in a box.
All of Zach's friends are stockpiling,
putting things, working hard, sweating, just using all
their might to pull things in.
OK.
Where's Zach at?
Are you standing?
(chuckles) He's playing with all
the babies in Jackson's room.
That's what I do.
I hang out with the babies. (chuckles)
Because all his friends are just, (grunts),, moving stuff.
They don't need me. They're dudes.
They don't need me telling them what to do.
They already know what to do.
Get out of the way, Zach.
(chuckles)
(clatter)
Jackson Kyle, what are you doing?
You can almost section it by having these two couches almost
there.
And then you could have a chair, or a swivel chair,
or something.
You mean both on that wall?
My vision was definitely a little
more updated for our new house.
It was still kind of the same.
A lot of our old stuff worked in our new house.
Most of my decorations here are from our old house.
But there was a lot of cosmetic things in this house that were
just not my style, whatsoever.
Like this room was green.
I picked one color and painted the whole house,
and it was just more my style.
We gutted all the wood floors.
We changed every square inch of this place.
And then we changed the baseboards.
And we painted all the trim, and we painted all the walls.
And the doors.
Because the previous owners did have a unique style.
Like this room was green, and that was red.
There was yellow and purple.
And then this was this wood floor.
That was that wood floor.
And they had cherry wood down, which if the sun hits cherry
wood-- which there's a lot of natural light--
it turns bright red.
So then you had like--
It was just bleached.
But then this was a different kind of wood.
Our bedroom was floating laminate wood floors.
So just, we gutted all that.
The carpets were blue.
And now it's all settled, same thing everywhere,
one color on the walls.
One thing that I don't think anyone knows,
though, is the banisters.
We debated pretty hard whether to take down the old banisters,
which were just wood.
Because we got quoted for like $3,200 to have them painted.
And Zach and I were like, there's
no way it's going to cost more than $4,000
to get a new banister.
Knock these down.
We'll just get new ones, metal, very easy.
We have two sets of banisters-- upstairs, pretty long,
and then downstairs.
And so we smashed those, get those out of here.
And then we started getting quotes.
Never do that.
Get your quotes before you start knocking things down.
Banisters are a specialty job, very, very expensive.
Very expensive.
Ended up being a nightmare.
You have to get permits.
You got to get special human beings to come do it.
And you can't just get your bathroom/kitchen
carpenters, because those just say, oh,
that's not a big enough job.
Or it's like, we just don't do that.
There's like a specific contracted
person that has to do it.
So don't ever pull your banisters out.
Don't ever pull your banisters out
until you first get the quote.
Till you know you have enough money to put them back in.
Just don't do it. (chuckles)
What a mess.
