This week on Waking Up with Flem, the house is about to get a whole lot quieter as Maizee and Declan head off for church camp! We talk about all the excitement, nerves, and chaos that come with sending the kids away for a week of adventure.
We also introduce the newest member of the Fleming family—Yurtle the Turtle, Maizee's new pet and already a household celebrity.
The conversation takes a turn into the world of K-pop as we discuss the kids' latest obsession, favorite groups, and how somehow our house soundtrack has completely changed overnight.
Plus, Ryan unveils his new alter ego, Vlan, and explains the story behind the name, while we brainstorm what a rare kid-free week might actually look like. Will it be productive? Relaxing? A chance to catch up on life? Or just a week of wondering what the kids are doing at camp?
Join us for laughs, family stories, and the usual Fleming family randomness as we wake up together and navigate another week of life.
