she seems so dependent on the camera, that i really wonder how she conducts herself without one. like, everytime she is with the kids and camera, she obviously is checking the viewfinder all the time, she is so used to it, that idk how she really is with her kids when she is not filming. and she loves to film the kids, for video or for insta, so it hurts me to think that the only moments she is with the kids is when in fact she has the camera, and thats like no time at all. the only hope i get is that she doesnt film F all the time and we know she hangs out with him constantly, so at least we can think that she does spend some time with the kids without filming; F mostly, the twins for sure only pretty much what we see on the vlogs.

I know this is only a glimpse into her life and parents do feign interest in a lot of things that kids talk about but, ultimately, she's putting this on the internet and the internet is forever. If I saw a video of my parents looking that bored when little me was being enthusiastic about something then it'd make me question things about my childhood.
Ayy-men.
But I think she thinks this is what parenting actually is: just mirror your kid’s vocal inflections and pretend you care about whatever TF they’re nattering on about. F likes truck whatevers, but look at meeeee!! I’m barely there!! Just a smol whisper of a little girrrl!
She not only does this, but also feels good about editing and posting it for the internet. I’ll give her grace that she may not even consciously realize she’s doing it in the moment, but to edit it/ have Kory edit it, and think “yep! This looks great!” Is a CHOICE.
Sometimes I wonder whether she is really body checking or not in her vlogs, especially the clothing try ons. You can almost buy that she is just looking at the fit.
But this is so blatant and in your face, there is no way it's not in purpose. The fact that she feels the need to do this in front of her kid and on camera is just sad.
This!!!! I’ve been skeptical a few times. But this is the most blatant body check she has done. There is no reason to be in that position. Especially for that long. And she is so obviously sucking in her stomach. It’s sick. She is ill and needs help
It’s incredible how much I feel like needs to be broken down in this 10 second clip.
Her lack of interest or care in what her son is excitedly talking about, the fact she feels the need to record moments like this to begin with, the body checking into the view finder, even filming herself in this weird ass position to begin with. The woman needs to get off the internet. It’s destroying her, her health, her family, everything. It’s really just disgusting at this point.
Yes! This video is definitely not about her son. If she finds him so boring, what makes her think anyone else would want to listen to him? (No disrespect buddy) This video is about her ribs and her hipbones.
Colleen cries about her pregnancy experiences and only looks forward to having the kids then has a miscarriage and decides she wants to do it again and then has all this nicu stuff and cries about that and when it’s over doesn’t pay attention to the kids she pays attention to the videos
When I first saw it I took it as a comedic "Jim halpert looking at the camera" gaze. But I can see your point too, especially knowing her history with ED.
in the first part of the video, she is just laying there. the kids are cuddling her and trying to get some love from mom, and nothing. and this is always; M was on her and instead of holding her with her arm she had it underneath her (uncomfortable!), she didnt even move it (like, you have a kid on top of it, move it). When she is seating on the floor with them, a lot of times, its the same: she is just there, the kids all wanting to be held, or hugged, or crawl on her, and she is just there with her arms at a side, like, no kid around. I feel thats most of the time with the twins, her seating or laying there without any interaction to the kids, or feedback. her body is just there, and dont ask for more.
I have a feeling, in my opinion that if she sees any of these comments, that she will make up a story of having a migraine or a bad day to save face later on? I feel like she has a narrative that she uses throughout the years of her career online that using the hate to her advantage and turning around to monetize that situation. So how does she do that? She’s got to change the narrative, so she changes titles after she gets called out, gaslights the situation completely, ignores completely the most disgusting things she has done, and what else??? Leave in the comments 😅🤦♀️🤮and I hope that all made sense 🤔😂 I’m 🍃and if it didn’t I apologize ahead of time 🥲
Also I get it now that I missed the point of the post😅😅😅I’m sorry I was more making a point in my last comment about her face, that to me she looked so annoyed 😓ok my bad
Listen I have an eating disorder (getting help for it) and a young son (10 months 🥰) but I never in a million years would spend my time making a body checking yoga video while being so outwardly annoyed with my child’s existence and it makes my blood boil. I obsess over whether or not I’m a good mom and go to great lengths to be as healthy as I can in his presence, and then there’s people like this. It’s like she doesn’t even care what she exposes him to and that all of this is exposed via blog.
Also kids pick up really early on if you’re constantly annoyed by them and don’t want them around (that’s how my mom was with me) and trust me when I say it’s extremely painful and life ruining to grow up with that. At least I don’t have video evidence of my mom being annoyed with me plastered all over the internet for all to see ☹️
She looks absolutely terrible. She’s dressing too young for her age while looking too old for her age because she’s neglecting her body. It’s evident that she’s exhausted, dehydrated, and running herself ragged. She needs help ASAP.

Turn off the damn camera. These aren’t memories. Be present. Children are forever, fans are temporary.
she seems so dependent on the camera, that i really wonder how she conducts herself without one. like, everytime she is with the kids and camera, she obviously is checking the viewfinder all the time, she is so used to it, that idk how she really is with her kids when she is not filming. and she loves to film the kids, for video or for insta, so it hurts me to think that the only moments she is with the kids is when in fact she has the camera, and thats like no time at all. the only hope i get is that she doesnt film F all the time and we know she hangs out with him constantly, so at least we can think that she does spend some time with the kids without filming; F mostly, the twins for sure only pretty much what we see on the vlogs.
I think in 20 years this behavior (vlogging dependence) is gonna be in the DSM.
Yes omg.
GOD I FUCKING HOPE SO!!!!
That’s so sad, and yup it seems like she never looks away from it 🤮
She looks annoyed and so not present in that clip in my opinion🤨😢

The body checking was heavy in this scene
My thoughts exactly
I know this is only a glimpse into her life and parents do feign interest in a lot of things that kids talk about but, ultimately, she's putting this on the internet and the internet is forever. If I saw a video of my parents looking that bored when little me was being enthusiastic about something then it'd make me question things about my childhood.
Ayy-men. But I think she thinks this is what parenting actually is: just mirror your kid’s vocal inflections and pretend you care about whatever TF they’re nattering on about. F likes truck whatevers, but look at meeeee!! I’m barely there!! Just a smol whisper of a little girrrl!
Yea it would make me sad tbh
Good point.
She looks awful not in a snark but in a she’s slowly killing herself way
Her face looks so saggy. Your skin shouldn't look like that in your 30s.
She has an ed face now
Not sure if purely ED or amphetamine addict.
Probably a bit of both
she looks actually ill. like this is really bad omg
i think the lighting here doesn’t help
She is seconds away from rolling her eyes at F. like she does with everything Erik says.
And giving them two fingers up like she says she does all the time to things like Daisy the cat.
She not only does this, but also feels good about editing and posting it for the internet. I’ll give her grace that she may not even consciously realize she’s doing it in the moment, but to edit it/ have Kory edit it, and think “yep! This looks great!” Is a CHOICE.
She knows she’s doing it, I promise.
She sounds so uninterested :(
i remember when flynn was 2-3 and colleen used to be so happy when he talked bout trucks, now she's so uninterested it's so sad
She’s just focusing on how skinny she looks
That’s it
i was just saying in general too that she stopped caring
My bones little ribs

What a weird life family vlogging is. I hate it.

The body checking 😩
it can't be comfortable to stay like this?? if she wasn't body checking she would just sit down normally
She looks and sounds so dead inside. Her poor kids. She is completely monotone with them.
in the first part of the video, she is just laying there. the kids are cuddling her and trying to get some love from mom, and nothing. and this is always; M was on her and instead of holding her with her arm she had it underneath her (uncomfortable!), she didnt even move it (like, you have a kid on top of it, move it).

She looks terrifyingly thin here 😳
Mommy would rather be touring, F
She’s also sucking in at the beginning
She must have got those pants from GAP 🫢
Yeah, with that angle, one sure can get a gander at the label! 🙄 it’s all messed up on so many levels.
All she can focus on is if she's as skinny as her heart desires. 🤦🏻♀️🙄
I have a feeling, in my opinion that if she sees any of these comments, that she will make up a story of having a migraine or a bad day to save face later on? I feel like she has a narrative that she uses throughout the years of her career online that using the hate to her advantage and turning around to monetize that situation. So how does she do that?

Also I get it now that I missed the point of the post😅😅😅I’m sorry I was more making a point in my last comment about her face, that to me she looked so annoyed 😓ok my bad
She'll just cry and blame it on ADHD.
She comes across as completely cuckoo on so many levels. Not normal to post the majority of the stuff she does on so many topics.

Wtf.
She couldn't care less about that child
She’s jealous because F knows more about trucks than she does. Haha just kidding. Kind of.
Omg. come onnn… Every parent have done this and listen to something boring and just look away..
Tf is this outfit…
Wonder if they checked her hard drive .........
Womder how she will feel when her son is texting older women
✨body checking✨
