Large Family PHOTO SHOOT | * Mom of 17 *

[@lynnaandj1]

Alex has been looking so much better ever since he’s been single. He looks much more rejuvenated and full of life now.

[@beckyklepper315]

I was just thinking he looks HAPPIER and HEALTHIER!

[@Kaylaaaa000a]

Wait what happened I thought he was engaged or something? HAVENT WATCHED THEM IN A WHILE

[@beckyklepper315]

@Mkay1143 they have been broken up for a while. They briefly touched on it, but they've been making sure they're focused on the moving forward and have been very positive in how they spoke about her.

[@academia8021]

I agree, he look stressed before break up but now he looks happy and fit.

[@journie2cool]

How do u know?

[@Clio..]

Y'all see how Bella just bloomed so beautifully?! She's coming out of her shell more, her style has changed as her confidence grew. And I love how she's still as humble and sweet as ever.

[@joandepies7133]

Love Bella. She's so sweet and genuine. Not a seeker of attention by any means unlike a few of her siblings.

​@@amyrivers4093 Honestly each and every one of the kids in this family are amazing. It's just a human thing to have flaws and they're all doing so well for themselves. Let them live their lives.

[@sybilj.682]

Aurora saying "I'm a princess" just melted my heart. I can't believe how much speech therapy has helped her. Love getting to hear her sassy personality.

[@becky6997]

So agree 😊

[@robinfoster3328]

Love all the pics!!!

[@cindyschuman4814]

You create such a “safe environment” for each to be themselves, so wonderful! I’m so excited to get to know your new daughter more.

[@emmie9102]

That's right! This is why I'm very protective of this family + Crazy Middles because you can see that they're really taking care of the kids. The kids are also spoiled (positively) which I'm pretty sure makes them feel like they're not adopted at all and just equal with the bio kids. I'm so proud of this family 🤍

[@moniceknuteson7205]

I just love how much Savannah adores you Crystal! ❤ You and Aaron do such an amazing job with all of the kids!! ❤

[@lynncermak5034]

Al.ex looks so happy! He has slimmed down and looks like a teenage again. Such a beautiful family!

[@ademibarone7506]

Everyone looks great! Looks like Jacob did a great job! Can’t wait to see the finished photos. So sorry Scarlet could not be there. Savannah and the closet raid at the end-too funny!

[@caroleshaffer2243]

Savannah looks so much like you Crystal. Can't wait to see all the beautiful pictures. What a beautiful family

[@aadams0504]

Not me crying over the family photos, I've been watching for a long time, and to see the kids change, it's a reminder to live in each and every moment. Y'all truly have a beautiful family 💖

[@christinjans5335]

Oh I'm 100% team Bella, I can't take compliments, it makes me so uncomfortable. She is insanely beautiful though 😄 And it's so important to still give her compliments, we all need to hear it 😉

[@Lost.prod21]

Same im like Wth should i say besides thank you ? 😂

[@Awasdiary835]

Sameeeee😂

[@findthegood9037]

I used to be the same way. It can be uncomfortable sometimes.

[@Michele-bm1zu]

I used to be the same way until someone told me it came off as rude, now I say "thank you" and always compliment something genuine back ❤

[@Kloetenhenne]

I second that 😂

[@elyssabrecher7938]

OMG!!! I TOTALLY didnt recognize Alex with the snazzy new haircut and without the huge glasses that hid his handsome face!!! Alex, this look is the most mature, most stylish I've seen on you in the 3 years I've been watching your family......you are so awesome, please, stay just as you are!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@zarasophia3714]

Miss Bella you are gorgeous! Your Mom is right and honest when she says "you are beautiful"! Every time I see you I think you are so classy, you have a clean way of dressing, simple and smart, not a fussy way that detract from your natural beauty but add to it. Love your personality and who you are. At least from what I see on screen. You also have a good brains and talent. Ok should we say you have it all. You don't have to be perfect in life, no one is, to be great! Love you Girlie!

[@Didot2]

Alex looks great, Savanna is so fun to watch. Nice way to spend part of my lunch hour.

[@maccifyme]

The picture of the girls at 11:51 and the one of the boys at 11:54 are really, really beautiful! Also the one of the entire family at 12:06 is amazing. Jacob is such a talented photographer! I just realized I don't think I've ever been taking family pictures. I can't think of one single picture I've ever seen of my entire family. That's actually kind of sad!

[@kkmd0113]

I love this family. It's been great to see a family that is functional, loving, and real online. I don't fear that these kids are being exploited or abused. It is so refreshing to come onto KZbin and watch this channel. I truly hope that y'all never change who you are and that you realize how much good you put out in the world just by uploading videos of your daily life to KZbin.

[@edeleencotton6854]

1000% it took me years to just say thank you to a compliment. I think it comes from trauma and your personal self-worth. I started saying thank you just not to be rude to the ones giving me the compliment, but then I started believing it and then slowly feeling it. Then now I can give myself compliments and those are the best!!!!

[@sanezmarybeatrice9148]

We rarely see Lucas and Jake in the vlog but hell they look so good!! We love seeing you guys complete!!💗

[@brendastrode7140]

I absolutely love how Crystal spends time with the girls. And they are all beautiful.

[@jennyevans8160]

💯

[@jennywester7001]

Crystal, I love how you love your children. For example, the way you speak to Jamie always pulls on my heartstrings so much.

[@taylorweekley9922]

Alex looks so good!! And he looks so much happier❤ I love that Savannah can steal all your clothes!

[@LindaBrown-ns8om]

BEAUTIFUL pictures,cant wait to be able to see Arwens face soon though. Great job Jacob!

[@cazb7806]

Nice everyone was able to get together for family photos before Ariana leaves. Sorry Scarlett was missing, but I am sure Jacob, Max or someone else can photoshop her in to the photos. Looking forward to seeing the finished photos. Nice Savannah and Crystal are the same size apart from leg length lol. Blessings.

[@herestiaa]

You have such a loving family. I can only dream of having such a loving environment around me one day.

[@Genzmillenial]

Savannah is so insanely beautiful. I love how her eyes light up when she smiles❤

[@MelissaCardenas]

Everyone looked so nice! The photos are going to turn out great 🙂

I am team Bella. I'm like that when people compliment. Savannah looks great in crystals clothes. She reminds me so,much of Crystal.. They are so,much mother and daughter. Even the resemblance. You would think they were biological . Jacob took great pics. Such a beautiful family.

[@audreyduguay1968]

Family pictures are the best to keep at heart ❤️ when you are so far away from them. There is also FaceTime as well to keep in touch if you can't be close to family.Have a safe trip to Atlanta Georgia Ariana stay safe don't go out and do crazy things.

[@damalyznaomy3151]

Since day one Savannah has been Crystal’s clone. She was really meant to be part of the family. Algo she’s a daddy’s girl all the way. I love your family Aaron and Crystal, hope I can meet you one day or just say hi in the streets. The love you guys spread thru you’re videos is contagious. Hugs from Puerto Rico.

Kudos to Aaron for standing his ground regarding wearing the popping blue shirt even when it seemed that Crystal was forcing him to wear another shirt.

I can’t accept a compliment because of the horrible way my adopted family treated me…I have no Love for myself….I am 54 and I pray that Bella finds love for herself and learns to accept compliments. She is a beautiful, kind smart young woman with the world at her feet and is going to go far. She is loved by her family and is a blessed girl!!

Nando’s is actually a Portuguese/Mozambican restaurant. Fun fact, they are all over the world, but England has more Nando’s restaurants than any other country. We even have a saying, when going to a Nando’s we say we are going for a “cheeky Nando’s.”

I’m not sure it’s the same franchise. I think it’s a different restaurant, same name

[@kendrabell7555]

I laugh everytime you guys say “it’s only 100 degrees out but feels way hotter”. I live in Michigan and anything over 90 is practically a heat wave. I think you guys would love our summers up here because we usually stay between 75-90. Maybe in the future if you’re interested in a fun vacation idea, rent a lake house in Michigan. The lakes are beautiful, northern Michigan is full of entertainment, and you might even be able to visit family!

[@susiesantino5625]

Yes! Our Michigan summers are nice... I prefer 75-85 (at the most), these past two days in the 90s yuck

08:25 If singing happy birthday is awkord, imagine if you were the queen/king of UK that you're the only person who don't sing and the NATIONAL ANTHEM is a prayer, asking our beloved and almighty God to save you, bless, keep and give you a long and happy reign. So great! (by the way, even I'm not britsh, that's one of the things I most love about UK, there's reverence involved in this. So cool)

[@bryllegumaod5536]

[@ednanelson1897]

I grew up not being able to take a compliment. I always found fault in what they said. Someone told me we should love our neighbor as ourself and when we can't take a compliment, we don't really love ourself. Continue to give compliments to Bella. One day she will actually believe it as she learns to love herself more. I did!

[@hazelbaezel420]

love you all so much! hope everyone has had a great school year so far ♥
