DAY IN A LIFE OF A MOM TO 12 KIDS

[@amberspears3301]

James is the brother that everyone needs. All of your kids are so amazing

[@jodiyoung5578]

James is always such a big helper for Alicia and the family.

[@bredaes]

ikr❤ hes so sweet

[@Kat4u2]

The twins are so sweet and caring towards Harley , Love it ❤️

[@Anr1231]

James seems like such a giving person His time mostly and his help I hope him well

[@evieho1]

James is literally the sweetest human ever! XxX

[@SecretPlacePsalm91]

I love it… “I’m just trying to get something in her for her medicine! You got to do what you got to do!!!” I told my hubby about you on our walk today :-) how when you first get a foster kid you let them pick out their favorite foods! I just love that!!

[@carmensantana1374]

The love she has for her family is blessed.

[@jaclinecarter368]

I've learned from people who have worked there, its not that the machine is broken or out of order or whatever tale they want to tell. What is happening is, the machine has an automatic timer for cleaning and instead of setting this timer for a more convenient time like late at night when people are sleeping or in the morning when we're all getting breakfast still, it is set to clean itself right smack in the middle of the day. And then of course because the machine is hot after it's little cleaning session, you have to wait to add in the ice cream mixture to get it to freeze until the system cools down so the milk product doesn't spoil from the heat contact and then wait once it's in for it actually harden to be used for frozen desserts on the menu. Just annoying any way you slice it. LoL

[@karenmbbaxter]

I love how you show all your pots and tupperware stacked up on portable and inexpensive shelving because IT'S HONEST........Nothing is worse than watching a KZbinr in a brand new and giant kitchen showing how he/she feeds their family of 3........Many of us can't afford to refurb our kitchen so everything has it's own drawer and it kind of makes us feel bad we don't have a fancy kitchen......You show how you can 1/ Feed a family of 12 and although you don't have a new kitchen you make it work by having a tidy kitchen......2/You also show your garage filled with inexpensive, portable shelving ( that most of us can afford) to put any tupperware conatiners and other stuff than doesn't fit in your kitchen.

[@cristinas4398]

Exactly, and this is so well said. This has really helped me to realize how content and appreciative I can be with my small kitchen, because, a lot like Alicia, I don't have to take many steps and most of my tasks are a matter of turning in a different direction and not walking across a large space (like washing dishes, fixing food, no walking from my countertop to my stove). And yes you're right, Karen, it's really nice and encouraging to see regular storage shelving and such.

[@pattytheseeker8902]

I agree. I have a small kitchen, we have 2 pantries, one is small, the other is pretty big. We store appliances, food, paper products ...

[@johnnywalker8326]

James is that fun sibling who doesn't mind the little rug rats jumping all over him! What a good kid. Bree always seems so willing to help Alicia and to watch out for the little ones. Very sweet. Cheers!

[@Goaway624]

Please dont make your problems ours........florida is devastated from a hurrican while other states have bad droughts.....there are problems everywhere. Just be kind and try not tomake your problem ours...they have to wash dishes fast due to a problem there so she does that fast.... And the problem is not from how much water they use.

[@Goaway624]

Yaaa he is soooogood with all the kids.....the whole family is well blended and they truly love each other.....i love all of them!!!

[@adrir7913]

Hey I’m regards to harleys ear infection… I would recommend having her eat less dairy if she eats any… I used to have ear infections all the time as a kid and recently found out that dairy is a big cause because it’s mucus forming

[@janicesummers105]

Agree. No (or very little) dairy. Worked for my son!

[@janicesummers105]

I’m sorry. Just saw this was posted 2 years ago!

[@tonyamae1677]

You and your husband are doing a great job. It's unbelievable all those kids.

[@lizetearruda3196]

You need to buy Bodhi a little thermos so it wont be cold at lunch time. That ice pack will make it even colder I have a pet peeve i i don't like soup tasting dishes and cups i rinse them really well.

[@callmeb6460]

I love the flirtatious vibe between you two even after 20 years of marriage

[@conniekelley5677]

You have the happiest group of kids that's one thing I love to see

[@constantinajenningsrn3216]

Hope the twins have an awsome birthday on Sunday!! You and your family rock alicia 😃 I just luv how so down to earth and relatable you guys are, reminds me of my old babysitter back in the day, she loved kids so she would always have a house full of her 4 kids and us neighborhood kids morning and night and we had so much fun together growing up, she was our neighbor hood mom, you remind me so much of her🧡

[@Goaway624]

@@Joseph-zd7kg omgggggggg how dare you talk like that she spends money all the time getting them all new clothes and esp sox....some of the kids. Esp the twins. Cant seem to keep track of their sox so shes constantlyyyy having to buy them new. What you said is just not true nor is it acceptable to say about these parents......too many people have wayyy too much to say and need to Make sure they know exactly what is going on......its not nice to accuse parents of not taking care of the kids when the truth is. They take excellent care of all aspects of these kids......new clothes constantly....for every CHILD......extremely healthy meals with fruits and vegs every day..... All sorts of water and juice and milk. Yogurt.......puddings and all sorts of roasts and chicken and steaks and bbqs all spring summer and fall they spend time swimming and bouncing on the new trampoline....or running and playing in sports .....they have gone on so many family trips to NYC. and plays and movies. There is NO WAYYYYY ANYONE CAN SAY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THOSE PARENTS.... So everyone needs to make sure while they post things that what they are saying is truth and not just spoutting off like a jealous spoiled brat!!!!!! There are many of us that follow this and know the truth.

[@Sherka55]

We really enjoy watching your family. We just have one question why doesn’t anyone ever pay attention to the dogs? I noticed one of the twins on this video literally walked right into the dog and the dog just moved like he needed to get out or that he or she needed to get out of the way not to get hurt. Someone has to pay attention to the dogs so they don’t get hurt from kids. Sometimes kids don’t understand that dogs have feelings just like any other living creature.

[@Sherka55]

@@tanyaboland1838 everybody has a right to treat their family the way they want, but when you make your life public then you’re making it OK for people to have an opinion.
