BOAT LIFE: A Stressed out Captain
Poor Riles. He was a little stressed out at this point, wondering if and when we'll EVER set sail. He's struggling to deal with the fact that jobs now take twice as long with little Lenny around.
We're going to publish this one shortly so this is a quick preview / bonus video.

Hi guys, I have been following you for a while now and I really would love to support you, but I don't have a credit card. What else can I do for you? Kisses from the Netherlands <3
Riley makes me laugh so much!
Riley has a good sense of humor. I never liked crying babies and would resort to ear plugs when necessary. Elayna - I love houseplants too. I can’t wait to see them grow. Lenny is soooooo cute! Cheers!

Rile's I'm feeling your frustration mate! Hang in there dude, any Dad who loves his family understands where you're at, which doesn't necessarily make it easier, it just helps to know you're normal. Wish I could pop out with ya, and share a beer or glass of wine together. You have a lovely lady there too dude, and most important is your sail boat is no longer a vessel it's becoming a real home. One day at a time. Like sailing, as Ian said above, I had to learn how to 'go with the flow' and weather the storms, together you'll figure it out in this world of a balance of extremes. Thanks for being real with us guys, there's a lot of love here for everyone at Sailing La Vagabonde. Big hugs from us to you! Also enjoyed, the baby holding tips, he's such a cute little guy!
Lenny is a fine looking fella. No choice but to go with the flow. There is jot apprenticeship for being a parent but as usual, nothing for Lenny to worry about, he is in good hands.
Saw thiis on the wall of a local pizza restaurant and thought of you: “She danced a while and drank some wine before she rolled her eyes at me. I picked them up and rolled them back, and then we sailed across the sea”.
Hey Riley, be careful not to let Elayna buy too much stuff, so that you need a lot of time to fix all that things to be able to sail
Riley, that's above the knee not below ... LOL!!!
Riley, let it all break if you have to, except the child. You just went to a zone defense...boat/baby. The baby wins. And remember, children aren't us again...they are us plus them. The 'us' is what we see first, the 'them' is the best part.
Wonderful to see that u r almost back at sea. Can't wait to see Lenny doing his seaman dutoies & keeping u & all of us happy & contented. Wish for great winds to fill ur sails! Luv 'ya!
May Lenny sleep as deeply as our beagle while under way. No matter how rough the seas got, he had his little bed at the stern, ears flopped over the bed's edge, snoring with a smile on his face. I've heard kids are the same way... :)
English Ivy consumes mold spores, it may slow down the mold growth on the boat. Plus it's almost impossible to kill.
Listening to ‘Morning Sun’ by Melody Gardot and you guys came to mind :) cheers from Melbourne! P.s. I’m up to 2 pregnancy-related dreams in the past month, I blame you!! 😜
Thanks guys. Good to catch up again. Very best of luck taking Lenny out for his first sail. I’m sure he will love it. Looking forward to the full video.
Lenny, don't stress. I know being the baby makes you the new captain and all, and keeping those parents in line takes a lot of screaming, but try and relax and dream of a land of milk and honey. Or a land of milk at least!
Sail on
Thanks guys. You always put a smile on my face and keep the wind in my sails.
I love Riley’s baby tips, especially the sniff at the end of that bit , Crack up!🤦🏼♂️
Oh pretty soon you will be slowing Lenny down!
Love your videos. Welcome to the world of children! We had 5, now have 8 grand children and more to come. Having children forces you to be less self focused, more organized and sharing. But, I have a feeling that you already knew that. Cheers! Be safe out there.
All dads stress over keeping a roof over your family's head. It takes longer on a boat. It takes longer with a young child around. And it takes longer while filming. You have all of thise. Take your time. Do things right, and if filming gets in the way, let that go for a bit. We'll still be here.
Great episode ... i LOVE Lenny's smile. Such a happy baby. Hope you are on the water soon.
We don't often see Riley stressed out or in a bad mood....this "trying to get stuff done while parenting" is hard! :)
I know, I think it's more a serious case of itchy feet. He needs to get going! He will survive though 😊
Found myself smiling a lot in this video. The sun set shots were stunning. Step by step Riley your little man will slow things down. 💕 happy weekend 😎
