Boys' Room - How We Fit 6 Boys in One Bedroom (Large Family, Small House Organization pt. 9) 

This reminds me of those japanese hotel rooms/beds. Anybody know what I'm talking about?

This was the first video of Andrea that I watched. Now that she just passed away and knowing that they were so close to have that sixth baby boy it feels really bittersweet. May Andrea and baby Cyrus Rest In Peace.

Watching this after Andreas passing hearing her talk about a sixth boy now knowing that the little one they lost was a boy is unbearably sad. Such a loving Mother. Praying for her beautiful family💐

if you are reading this comment now, please don't be snarky or mean spirted. Andrea passed away yesterday. She was pregnant with their 10th child and began not feeling well. Doctors found cancer cells on her liver and gallbladder. She miscarried the baby and died within 36 hours of that. Prayers and good thoughts with this family, they have a tough road ahead.

I love how you got everyone to fit but still have their own private areas and still be able to express them self

This reminds me of a Sims small house challenge.

GIRL! I'M trying to fit 3 boys in a small room and 3 girls in the other and I'm like this is crazy! Lol. What kinda super hero lady are you?!?!

This is the video I found your family! The news I heard today absolutely devastated me. I have been so uplifted by Andrea and will raise my future family with things I have learnt from you. I'm praying for you guys. I know this is going to be difficult but Andrea is in a better place now 😭

When they are older I have a feeling this won't go as well... 😂

reminds me of a tour bus celebrities go in

I really love the color-coding, I bet it helps to prevent the boys from fighting over who owns what.

Watching this after she passed hurts so bad, she was like a second mom. I suffer a lot with anxiety and she made me feel safe, she was an amazing mother and will be an even better Angel.

people are over thinking everything. she doing her best to give the boys their own space. i mean she said it was only a 2 bedroom house, and maybe she can’t afford a bigger home, but she put in the time and effort to give the boys as much personal space as possible. i once had to share a room with my siblings and our room wasn’t this cool but i was still happy. idk. i just think people need to lay off

Holy moly this room looks like so much fun! I love how you let the boys pick out their own designs for their beds. It makes it seem as if they sleep in a whole seperate room from everyone else! Love that feel of privacy, while still being able to chat late at night with your brothers.

This is the very first video I ever watched of Andrea's. So thankful for the random RU-vid recommendation that lead me to this channel. For 3 years Andrea has been such a blessing to me and my motherhood journey. She was such a wise, loving, gentle, and caring person. Such a loving wife and mother. She worked so hard to make every day, every event, every birthday, and every holiday making it special for everyone. I hope that all the kids can treasure these videos in years to come and see how much love their mother poured out on them. God bless you Mills family! You are in my prayers.

This is the 1st video I ever watched of Andrea's. And it's so sad that baby Cyrus never made it to his bed.

everybody is throwing shade but i think this is cool. their spaces are totally customized, theyre cozy, and personal. even though I have a king sized bed, i would love to live there

I love how Thomas has his own bottle of chocolate syrup, I wish my grandparents would allow that. But looking at the outside the beds/rooms seem small. But on the inside they seem like way more. It's like those tiny house shows where they are tiny on the outside but look cozy on the inside

Reminded me of capsule hotel. I think this bedroom is amazing!

those beds are like caves, i want one!🤠

I kinda want a bed like that 😂

You show paint the room white for it to be brighter and it will make the colors pop more

Oh my...hearing Andrea talking about the extra bunk bed would be for another boy if they ever had one was so terribly sad to me. It really jerked my heart strings knowing that when she left us, she was CARRYING that 6th son who would have been such a joy to Andrea and to the whole family. After the 3 girls in a row. The whole situation is sooo sad, even though Tom is doing an excellent job and the children are flourishing and seem happy. But there are some moments, like the bunk bed comment and also on Christmas with precious Baby Hannah looking at Andrea's pictures and saying Mama. I think about ALL those type of things that Tom hears or observes on a daily basis, and poor guy....How does he DO it??? Yes, they are still a beautiful family, a remarkable family, without Andrea....but that family will NEVER be the same. What a shame. I pray for Tom and each one of those precious children every night. Miss you Andrea 💔

I remember watching this when she uploaded it. WE MISS YOU ANDREA ❤

This video truly makes me happy because most kids on RU-vid own these HUGE rooms and still aren't grateful. I'm so happy to see these kids enjoying and appreciating what they have

I bet she will have 6 well raised, loving, appreciative, goal oriented men... and not self entitled ass kids that think the world owes them something. My dad grew up with 6 siblings and he wished he had something awesome like this. Great job lady! I'm over here stressed out with 2 kids in a small bedroom but you have given me inspiration. Thank you and don't mind the negative comments.

Theyre gonna hate it when theyre teenagers. They wont have enough privacy and the colours will become childish. But for while theyre young, i think you did a good job

It’s so great that now that Andrea is gone, her kids have these videos to show how much she cared and thought of them when it came to organizing the house and giving them their own space within a smaller space.

I love the individuality and how organized it is for so many boys in 1 space

I have mixed feeling about this, its creative BUT what happens when they get older and they want their own room and won't fit into those "beds" not hating just wondering what your plans are

I have a whole bed and loft to myself and to be completely honest it feels like I have too much room. Even though that sounds so spoiled I’ve basically been an only child since my sister is like ten years older than me. It gets pretty lonely and I want something cozy.

You can really see how different the boys” personality are via the way that decorate there bed area

Bruh your super mom ur so smart

Every one is Giving negative feed back but i think for her to have a small house with all boys she did her best compare to some moms that dont do shit. She try her. Best on a buget making her kids feel good and feel like they have there own room. And i like the fact that she did that and made the room. Fun even if its small. And let them pick thier own decor in side there beds. And i like the fact. That this boys are gonna spend time with each other. And dont have to much toys. Like kids now a days have ps4 xbox one and wat i see is a simple. Room yes true small but homie like she said. But if u look very good. They not that small. Looks like twin size matters in there. She took a small space and made a great room. Small simple. But great idea

I love this idea! As a kid, I would always wished I could have my own little cubby to decorate and make my own instead of traditional room sharing

Watching this and hearing there was room for one more boy makes me think of precious Cyrus Grant Mills.He would have been the 6th. son.God bless his soul.Prayers continue for you Tom and family and all who loved Andrea.🙏❣️

Let me clear up the most common questions on this video. The beds are the size of half a king sized bed. I'm 15, am 5 foot 10, and I can sit up and lay down just fine. None of us don't want to be together, and if we REALLY need to be alone, the curtains have always been sufficient for privacy. Our room is not that dark, it just looks that way on the video. The audio Bible is great. It's a never ending bedtime story. All of us kids are happy living in this room.

I personally don't like this idea with 5 kids in 1 room because I can barely live with my younger sister that I share a room with but this is a really cool room and I would recommend painting it a light color if it gets cramed 😊

This is how I discovered your channel years ago. So glad I did. Andrea was such a great example to many of us. Prayers to Tom and family ❤️

my absolute favorite part of it is the individuality. if someone were to only watch the first minute or so they think its a super strict boring home with no self expression for the kids but when you started pulling back the curtains and showed each "room within a room" it really shows that you're committed to raising humble young men who have their own personalities as opposed to being all completely the same. its a small space but you worked with it and let your kids choose how they wanted to have their space be and its super cute.

Answers to FAQs. (Edited 1/9/19) 1. We have 5 sons: Thomas (17), Asher (15), Judah (13), Justus (11) and Solomon (6). 2. We have 4 daughters: Eden (8), Sophia (5), Claudia (3) and Hannah (8 months). The girls share a different room. 3. These bunks are 90" long. We have twin mattresses in them, but they can accommodate XL twins, which are the same length as kings. 4. We have no plans to change anything at this point. Seven years ago we didn't have plans to do this, either. We deal with problems as they arise. If this becomes a problem, we'll deal with it. 5. We do not accept public assistance - including public schooling. We support ourselves with a home-based computer repair business. 6. We have a net worth greater than 75% of people our age. We didn't get there by being people who buy the biggest and best of everything. We are content with what we have and we try to find creative solutions to our problems. 7. We like our house. We bought it as newlyweds and 3 of our babies were born in it. We live in small town that doesn't have many bigger, better houses. All of that means we would rather customize our own house then start looking for the "perfect" one elsewhere. 8. It's so sad to me how many people have the basic assumption that the value of a human life is dependent on their possessions. (ie. if you don't possess x, y or z you'd be better off never having been born.) It's no wonder there is so much sadness and hopelessness in the world. You are enough just the way you are. I hope that at least some of you will finally understand that your relationship to your struggles in life is best met with personal competence, rather than commercial acquirement. If you do, you will understand why we do what we do, even if you'd rather make different choices for yourself.

Can people stop hating they have a different form of spacing and very cool ways to deal with the space if u dont like it then click off

Watching this after she passed, knowing God blesses them with Cyrus changes this whole video for me.

I am finding this beautiful family after Andrea's passing. I find them all to be remarkable and so loving to each other. All the material wealth in the world would never have created such character and kindness as I have witnessed as I watch this treasure of their daily life. And their father is such an amazing and talented man. So much love went into the creation of these awesome beds and the creativity and organization throughout the house and in their chosen lifestyle is so evident. The individuality of each child was taken into careful consideration. I bet any visitor to the boy's room would envy that setup. Their mother left a lasting legacy of love through these wonderful videos, and Tom will do the same through his. May God comfort and bring peace to each one.

This is SO cool!!! As a 17-year-old girl that has mostly had her own bedroom, I actually think this is really cool. Having a little space helps a person be really thankful for it! Boy, if you saw my bedroom right now... >.>' A crashing mess. I think you're my new favorite RU-vidr! Subscribed!

At 4:13 he keeps his own bottle of choalate hehehe 👍cool😃😁😀👍

My very first video I saw of this family

I am still re-watching these video’s....still so so sad Andrea will no longer be with us. Miss you Andrea💕💕💕💕

Would have loved something like this as a little kid

I don't have the slightest clue why there are so many haters here!? If you don't like it then go watch a different video lol it's simple! This is a BRILLIANT IDEA! I wanted to be a critic too at first bc I didnt think it was 'right' jamming that many kids in one room. But if you actually watch the ENTIRE video and LISTEN with your EARS and not with your MOUTH, you will note that she not only answers every question, but goes into explicit detail in each of the comments elaborating upon this incredible room design concept. Ive personally never seen anyone accomplish such an OUTSTANDING job at engineering a private personalized space for their children on a minimalist budget and with little to no expenses. Her videos are to help educate others that may also have the same structural limitations and a large family. That's what youtube is for most of the time. To HELP eachother. We need to UPLIFT eachother and SUPPORT one another! 😄😄 @Andrea Mills your hubby and you did a PHENOMENAL JOB!

I went to Mexico and we built a house for a family (with 4 children) that didn’t even have a house. Sitting in buckets of water to stay cool! So if this is “abuse” you really don’t know what is..

This is the cutest thing ever especially the inside of the bunks!!!!!!!!

Do people realize that this is amazing? People in third counties have DIRT for floors and even they appreciate it. Gtfo. This is dope! I love it, and these kids are very lucky.

at first I was like these poor kids must be depressed all living together. and then I was like NEEEED

This was my first Mills family video ever, and now I've made a number of friends that I never would know without having seen it. Some, including the family, I've had the privelege of meeting in person...and some are on the other side of the world. It amazes me how people can be an encouragement, support, etc. via technology and the internet. I pray that many, many more will be blessed through the sharing of this family's life and testimony.

That is so considerate as a parent and very important for the child to have their own private area. Especially when there are so many siblings. Good job!

I don't care what the haters say I think this IS AWESOME and really creative I would love a little bunk like that

When I was little I loved doing little houses for me, so this is basically my dream when I was 8. Love it.

i remember watching this video a few years back. it got recommended to me again, so i though i would rewatch it. i really enjoyed this channel and Andrea’s content, it made me excited for the future and for when i become an adult and have a family of my own. now that i found out that she passed, i am so heartbroken. she has a special place in my heart and her spirit will always be with me ❤️

I’m sorry for your loss. She was so smart. This room is perfect. Everything a boy could need.

I love your sarcasm towards hateful comments, it's so funny. I think the room's great by the way.

LOL I bet when Thomas says he uses the chocolate syrup for chocolate milk he just straight up drinks from the bottle 😂😂

How creative - way to work with what you have and not overextend yourselves "keeping up with the jones". I think this space is pretty amazing and each child has privacy...thanks for sharing.

I have 7 brothers , my dad / mom bought triple bunk beds . We lived in a 3 bedroom 2 bath home . My sister and I shared a room with the baby . It was comfortable.

They look like tour bus beds

Can we see the girls room?

Man those kids aren’t gonna know what to do with themselves when they move out! It’s gonna be like heaven for them lol. Good call on the curtains though... would be pretty awkward as they all went through puberty.... 😂😂😂

I just love seeing her beautiful face. I will always watch old videos💕

This is really amazing. I love how well planned out it is, and the respect you clearly show to your son's and their privacy and individuality. Who knew so much could be done with this space? Our family could benefit from your wisdom in so many ways...I feel like I can see your family functioning after watching this video. Thank you so much for sharing this, Andrea! I hope God blesses you with more children, because I am confident you are raising some pretty good ones!

Your children are just amazing! You really have raised them right . You should be very proud.

This the first video I ever saw 🙏🏽❤️ rest in heaven 👸🏼

I had to go back to the beginning. This is the first video I ever watched of Andrea. Thank you Tom for continuing to allow us grandmas to see the children growing up.

Colour coded children, that's interesting, lol. I feel sad for your boys that they all have to share such a tiny room, but you're obviously good parents and trying your best for your kids and I think what you have done with the room is really awesome and impressive :)

I live in the other side of the world, completely different mentality, & different life.. I saw this video almost one year ago, it was kinda difficult to understand your life, it is different, & I'm embarrassed to say that I was harshly judging you inside my head!! But I was curious to know you more, so I subscribed, and oh!! I wish you know how much you opened my mind, how you made me see the beauty & uniqueness of you & your family even if I have different views in life.. I can feel your warmth and love.. which made me believe in you and in whatever you want to do even if my choices in life are different. And today, I have more respect for people's choices in life thanks to you. By the way, I never comment on videos but I saw few rude comments so I wanted to spread some love 💜

I grew up with just an older brother in a huge house. We had our own bedrooms and play rooms. As an adult i look back and i would have loved to have a big family and three or four sisters to share a room with. Because at the end of the day family is all we have. These kids are very lucky to have such great parents and the parents are lucky too have them.

This is so cool if I was a kid I would be so happy an excited when I go to bed . Great idea .

SAY WHAT?!?!?! A LEGO CEILING?!?!?!?!

Ignore the Tube trolls...making one area work for 5 kids...and could have a friend over is amazing! That they get to personalize their space and have some privacy is beyond ingenious. Oh wow Tube trolls they have a lived in look with some paint chips. My guess is your home's are over ridden with things you have not used nor seen in a year or more. Leave this woman alone for providing for her kids and doing it with flair. In the future if the kids taste change the color scheme will grow with them. Good gravy.

😭😭😭😭 sweet andrea. In my desire to one day have a large family (just a family of three now), I have watched this video several times over the years. I hope all of your sweet family finds peace after your passing. Love to them all from SC

I just found you guys and have been watching your "documentary" from the start after I saw your livestream 2 days ago.I am so sad already that I know she passed but wow she is amazing. Your family experienced so much love from her & she taught you all to love just the same. I think these memories she filmed are the most amazing gift to your Kids. RIP Andrea🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

Im starting to hate youtube. no matter who, no matter what,SOMEONE ALWAYS has to be an Ahole. I find this room to be super cool, you go momma! youre a crafty mom and im sure the kids loved that you made this for them!

You guys must be great parents, to spend so much time on trying to give the kids their own individual space in such a small house. I hope they remember the time and care you invested in them when they get older.

Talk about maximizing space. 👏🏽 you guys really made it work.

I think any kid would love that, its like their own personal nest.. so cozy...

nice use of space. personally I couldn't deal with feeling like I'm packed in like a sardine, but the idea is interesting.

This is an amazing thing that you did for your children. I have my own room that is about that size and this makes me realize that some people have to put lots of children in 1 room and you did this amazingly for you boys, they are lucky to have a mom like you. I give you so much praise for all of your hard work you put into this, keep being an amazing mom :). Btw I am only 16 but this is still amazing and my parents agree as well :)

Well done!!! I'm an interior designer and in my professional opinion, I think it's a clever design concept with good use of form and function.

This is wonderful!! I love to see people make the best out of what they have rather then try and go broke to peovide them all with 5 bedrooms

This is very smart and you save SOOO much space. I kind of want a bed like that.

I think this is a great room. Way to go! I see you are excellent parent and are super fun. I especially like the idea that they get their own room inside a room because everyone needs a bit of privacy sometimes. I love how they I can decorate their own parts and allow themselves to be free and be themselves. I imagine your a very fun mum. Well done!!!

I didnt know her channel until her death, but I feel so sad and i am watching all her videos. I am completely sure Andrea Mills is in heaven 🙏🙏🙏

I love this idea! It's like those beds they have on trains in sleeper cars. Very creative and comfy.😊

If I had a bed like that built, I would feel like I have the coolest bed. Just in case, I already have my space planned out.

I would absolutely love to have a cubby hole that I can decorate how I like. What a great idea!

Since this is an older video. For anyone wondering about when the kids get older.... Thomas slept in these beds until he was 20 and he's over 6ft tall. He moved out at 20. The other kids are 20, 18.5, 16, and 11.5 and these beds are still working great!

💕I just met you and feel proud of you. God blessed you with a big family. He had a plan for you. Your husbands is in good hands. He’ll miss you but he has his hands full. You did a great job with your family. 🙏🏼

Nice rooms! They remind me of Japanese capsule hotels. :)

smart idea with the beds

Thomas is my spirit animal

is anyone going to tell her that boys grow
