Tori, 31, posted an adorable close-up photo of her drooling newborn Josiah to her Stories.
She captioned the photo: “Today has been unbelievably hard.
“Sleep deprivation is real and taking a toll on me. Zach has gifted me with sleeping alone tonight and all I can do is look at pictures of my kids.
“Mom guilt is so difficult sometimes. I love my kids so stinking much and just want to be the best.
“Pray for sleep for me. Haha.”
The mom-of-three took often posts photos and updates about her children to social media.
PARENTING DECISIONS
Occasionally, she has been criticized by fans for her questionable parenting decisions.
The Little People Big World star recently shared a video of Lilah, two, and Jackson, five, playing on her Instagram Stories.

Captioned “Jackson cheering on his little sister is actually life giving,” the recording shows the two-year-old propelling herself forward on a scooter.
Jackson can be heard yelling, “Go sister girl!” and “Go little princess,” as Lilah cruises around the driveway.
The InstaStory then cuts to a pair of videos featuring the siblings riding together.
Jackson wears a helmet as he races his younger sister. But although Lilah appears to be moving at the same speed as her brother, she rides helmetless.
While the video is cute, the activity was deemed too dangerous by some who felt that the two-year-old could have an accident while riding the scooter.
KITCHEN CHAOS
Earlier this month, Tori showed off her messy kitchen after she faced backlash for having seemingly dirty floors inside her $1M Battle Ground, Washington home.
In the snap, the star captured her sink and countertops covered with dishes, pots, and pans waiting to be washed.
She explained the mess in her caption, blaming it on a broken dishwasher.
“First world problem: Our dishwasher broke,” she wrote.
Tori then encouraged her followers to lend a hand, continuing her caption: “Tap to help me do the dishes.”
The following post showed the aftermath of an apparent cleaning spree with a completely clear counter and empty sink.
She added the words “Squeaky Clean” to the post.
Tori and her husband, Zach, 32, moved into their massive abode with their three children late last year.
TAKE A SEAT
Previously, Tori received backlash after she posted a video of Lilah in what appeared to be an unsafe position during a car ride.
The TV personality took to her Instagram Stories to share a short clip of the little one rocking shades while sitting in a facing-forward car seat.
According to several agencies, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a car seat in the rear-facing position is the safest.
It is recommended that a child continues in that position for as long as possible as it “offers the most protection” in the event of an accident or crash.
Earlier this summer, Tori felt the heat from critics after viewers noticed she placed her only daughter on the counter and looking away during an episode of the TLC series.
One angry person on an online thread reacted: “Who the heck leaves a toddler sitting on a counter with their back turned?
“My heart was in my throat this whole scene… maybe Lilah just doesn’t move around but yikes!”
Another added: “That scene made me really uncomfortable, too. The whole time I don’t think I listened to a word they said.
STEPPING AWAY?
Little People fans have suggested that Tori’s manager accidentally leaked that the star and her husband, Zach, are quitting the show.
Tori’s representatives, 456 Growth Talent, shared the possible leak in an Instagram post on Tuesday.
The management company posted a photo of the LPBW star with the caption: “Tori is an avid professional photographer and loves spending time with her kids.”
The explainer continues: “She is married to @ZRoloff07. Tori was on the show Little People, Big World on @TLC! Grateful to continue to build our relationship with Tori and her family!”
Keen-eyed fans quickly honed in on the “was on the show” portion of the text, motivating one fan to repost the photo on a Little People dedicated Reddit board.
Asking, “Are Zach & Tori leaving the show?” the Redditor wondered if the agency’s caption meant the pair are exiting the long-running series.
Other fans rushed to the post’s comment thread to discuss the odd word choice and its possible meaning.
One person commented: “They are the show now, how could they leave?”
A second fan mentioned: “It says she ‘was’ on the show. And I’ve really noticed she posts a lot more advertisements/sponsors on her IG lately making me think she is trying to make money from what will be lost if they leave the show.”
