DAY IN A LIFE OF A MOM TO 12 KIDS 

I loved this! I hope Josh isn't sick. Have a great day off Friday.

Bodhi did a very nice job on the coloring. Nice to see the twins active in sports. The horse 🐎🐎 ranch where, you take Bree is beautiful. So nice to the kids enjoying walking, running ect on the horse ranch.

If you are waking up with headaches, it may be because you need more water. Same thing use to happen to me and I did research and tried drinking more water throughout the day and it worked.

That’s so funny with Jordan about church of how you describing it how he said god bless his little heart. You and Josh are just amazing with your family! Hope you guys have a great weekend! 💜🩵🩷💙

Having candy whenever you don't know what to do is a pretty solid life advice. 😄 💚

Girl, you need to buy new, sharp knives! Dull knives are so dangerous, and sharp ones will make your life so much easier when cooking.

Hi, just a tip on buying potato’s, you have to smell the bag, whether netting or bag w/ holes. If you see moisture in the bag, or smell a moldy smell, don’t buy them. They have been in a cooler, and then brought out into the store. The condensation starts as they warm up and they are fast to rot. If the bag just has the condensation but smell ok, take them out and let dry on the counter flipping once, and then put in an open container. This is the same for carrots and many other veges. Potato’s should not go in the fridge. Potato’s should never be stored next to onions in the store or at home. I see this often at quick marts. It’s done on purpose, so you have to come in and buy more. The potato’s go bad and the onions shoot greens , sprout. It wrecks the integrity of both. Its super frustrating , esp when you can’t use them fast enough. You have a bit of an advantage, with your large family. Good luck . I enjoy the shows.

You can start your own compost pile in your back yard with just a small amount of dirt right on the ground! Start adding all your kitchen scraps, toilet paper, towel rolls, junk mail etc. You can google what you can put in there! It doesnt take long and it doesnt smell if you do it right!!😁

Lol I’m not just saying this because I’m black… BUT black churches are the best lmao I’ve been to all types of churches and they truly make it fun. I always leave feeling so fulfilled 🤍 I would love an updated on his experience!!!

I made Cowboy Stew last time you posted it…so good! Thanks 😊

Awe love day in the life!!!🌼🧡🌼 Happy Friday BEAUTIFUL!!!🌼🧡🌼🧡🌼🧡🌼🧡🌼🧡🌼🧡🌼🧡🌼

So enjoyed this video Alicia... thanks for including us in your busy say!

They need to make half sizes for kids when they hit that stage lol. Love you guys so much!! Hope you guys are having an amazing day!! 💜💜🙏🏽🙏🏽

The weather here has been crazy. The pollen is unreal so I’m with you on the morning headaches.

Loved your video as always ❤️ you have such beautiful kids and i think your an amazing mum ❤️ love 🇬🇧 xx

I tried the hand mixer hack for shredding chicken! It works great and shreds it fast! Thanks for this great tip! 😊💛

Thank you so much for showing that cooking doesn't have to be perfect! I was always intimidated to try new recipes but watching you made me want to try...My family has been loving it. I cook right along with you. Thank you Alicia.

The gap is my favourite place for kids clothes. They size well and can be washed several times and still hold up great!

I take my allergy med at night before I go to sleep. Pollen counts are at their highest in early morning. If I also have to go out early before 8am and pollen counts are high I will also wear a face mask to help reduce nasal/oral inhalation. Our local TV stations post the allergen levels daily both on TV and on line. No open bedroom windows at night.

I like the fact you get your nails done. I have to fit it in my budget, but I get my ME TIME aka nail done. Lol. God bless you and the family!!

Day in the Life videos are my fav! How long did the furniture last by the curb?

I was just rewatching your day in a life videos for the past couple of days 😊. Thanks for posting another day in a life. Love these 🙌 🙌 Have an amazing and safe weekend dougherty family!

it is nothing wrong with the potatoes if they are starting to sprout. If they are soft and mushy on the other hand they are bad. If they have started to sprout you can cut that away and cock them. :) If the flesh is green you should not eat them.

My almost 4 year old is also in that weird in between sizes! I get most of her clothes from Zara! They are so soft and they wash well!

I like harleys idea lol Don’t know what to do get candy sounds like a perfect idea to me girllll

FYI - carry a flexible measuring tape with you - size means nothing in ready to wear - measure the kiddo and the then the garment. Works all the time - I'm a grandma and I also make wedding and prom dresses. Tapes roll up really small!

I have family coming over next week...Cowboy Stew on the menu 😋

Haha when Harlee asked you what you were making I knew she would say I haateeeee thaaat

Now I’m gonna go back and watch the fast video to see if I can see the ice cream fall 😅🤣

Thanks for the weird combo might have to try that cream float with my children.

I love the amount you accomplish in one day. Super motivational! ❤❤❤

Harlee is adorable!

those liners must be tuff , as you hit liner with cans spots ect n doesn't ever seem to put holes or tear how awesome. I'd be scared stirring would rip it

We used to have American cream soda with ice cream, delicious 😊😊I'm in Scotland

Hello Alisha Can you tell me which camera mic and light you yse for your RU-vid videos and vlog 🙏. Kindly reply. Will be grateful

I always shop carter's/osh kosh or kohls. They have the set sizes. Like 5, 6, 7.. I hate when brands do the 4/5, 6/7, 8/9 in one. They almost always don't fit right! Even if size 6 is a little big a 6/7 will be way too big.

I love your shirt! Super cute and such a great color on you😊 You’re a fantastic mom! Don’t let the not so nice folks make you doubt yourself 😊 I hope you all have a great weekend ❤

Hi Alicia I’m new to your Channel i love how you take care of 12 kids and have lots of patients with each child you or your husband never yell at your kids you both are awesome parents God bless you for being such beautiful parents for taking on such a big job thanks for all that you and your husband do for being such great awesome parents to children that needed someone to be their parents and love them unconditionally all of your kids are so well mannered thanks for sharing love you guys God bless🙏🏽

You should definitely go to the black church. I used to go to one every Friday night and it was awesome! They know how to worship God and usher in his Presence through worship!!!

Composting doesn’t have to be messy or smelly. You can also add chicken litter/waste to the pile by letting them pick though the pile for scraps and insects. Cut back on any waste odors by adding wood chips or leaf debris and allow aerobic bacteria and other detrivores to decompose organic matter till ready for use as a soil amendment.

I love that you are following your kids lead with what church speaks to them ❤

I definitely think you should get a food composter as you have a lot of food waste ie. Egg shells, peelings, dinner scraps. This would break down and make wonderful compost that will enrich your soil. Come Josh let the good wife have a composter 😊 On the potato front rotten potatoes smell so bad. If they just have sprouts you can break them off and still use them just dig out the ‘eyes’ and then you can put the rest in a composter if you had one of course 😝

Can you link the can opener? I want one like yours! ❤

For migraine/headaches it could just be a side effect of any medication or it could be fake sugar if you drink any Diet Coke or any diet drinks. I just found out that Gatorade a regular orange one had sucrose in it with regular sugar and I was getting bad headaches. The regular blue and lemon lime Gatorade doesn't have fake sugar in it. One other thing that helps me when I have a migraine. I don't know if you drink the Starbucks mocha in the glass bottle anymore but eating a French fry large from McDonald's with extra salt take some motrin and drink a Starbucks mocha in a glass bottle nice and cold it takes the migraines away. Love your nails.

I say YES to the Composter.!All the scraps you throw would be recycled.Get the barrel type you spin and that cuts down the smell!.Add enuf wet and dry and no smell !A worm farm is another alternative.🌼🐝🌺Lucious plants and veges.Recycle is important!🌼🐝🌺

Plant the potatoes I'm the ground, grow some red potatoes as long as they are not mushy and moldy . I compost always and they don't smell if taken care of and the ending compost grows the most beautiful flowers, vegetables and fruits

Alicia please go check your iron levels. It’s common to have extremely low iron levels in red heads. My friend has massive headaches. Please have your blood pressure and iron levels checked

Your hubby might like you to tell him you love him when he leaves for work ❤️

You could add some pasta instead of the potatoes if your in a pinch. That looks yum 😋🤤

Another hour video, yay! Thanks for uploading😂❤

This video can just in time! Doing my daily cleaning to prep for the weekend! 😊

You can cut the sprouts off and still use them also if they are a little bit soft they should be fine

Have you tried Carters for Harlee? My son is the same age and is having the same issue at Target, too big for a 5t but too small for the 6/7. Carters has a size 6.

I migraine headache everyday with no relief from them since 2010 that mean I have a migraine disorder I love your show and kids

Happy 3 day weekend!!!

Finally I’ve been waiting for a day in my life

Scissors and knives will change your cooking. I rarely use a knife because after going to Korea I only want to use cooking scissors. A good knife is always good to have as well.

I wonder if your headaches are due to dehydration? I know I wake up with a headache if I don't drink at least 2 litres of water a day. I swapped coffee for water and my headaches vanished.

Loved spending time with you today. I know exactly how you feel about the potatos 🥔 glad you found some to use at Target. The cowboy stew looks delicious. Harlee was so cute with her wanting to go shopping. You were anazing at cooking and keeping an eye on her and engaging her with your warm smiles 😊 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Lol you're funny ,Im crying here

Weggys is awesome they will take anything you are unhappy with, I’m in PA, we love weggs.

Try sleeping with a humidifier in your room. Has helped with my sinus issues/allergies alot!

She’s such a sweetheart your so blessed god is great . I want a daughter so badly I’m 29 no kids yet

I am new to your channel and I really enjoy your videos. I am going to have to you slow cooker recipe 😁. It looks really good.And you need a huge pat on the back for having all the energy patience you have with that many children. You do amazing 🤩.

I thought Harley said I “pooped my pants” not “grew plants” I felt so bad put plants are much better

Love love Day in the Life videos!!! I wonder if you could blend the beans, they won't know they're in the stew if they can't see it, lol!! That is, as long as no one is allergic. ❤️❤️

And I thought my days were full. Can you do a video when you make those clams please???

Plant them. They will grow lots of potatoes for you. just make sure they stay covered with soil.

Awe my daughter is 4 Wearing Size 6 or 7 shirts lol in between is right! 😂

Yayyy hey Alicia! ❤ Harlee is melting my heart, what a cutie

We have a truck that comes around our neighborhood in Alabama from vector control at health department that sprays for mosquitoes but they never told us not to ket kids lay outside after hmmm im gonna have to look into that thank tou

we've had same color since few days before Easter lol only I have yellow polkadot on my ring fingers. finally mon may1st I get mind done

These are my fave videos you make!!! Thanks for sharing

My little girl wore 6x for a long time.. department stores carry it. I was devastated for you when the potatoes were rotten 😂a little thing can really throw off your day

Happy Friday hope you have an amazing weekend

While I'm still thinking of it 😅. Seriously though, have you ever done a sleep study? If your waking up with headaches, it could be your breathing. I really don't mean to be scary, something to consider. Going back to my regularly scheduled programming of watching you shop ❤

Happy Friday everyone! Yahhh so exicted to watch this 🎉

The potatoes are probably not all gone bad. You should put them in a sinkful of water, and check them out. I know you brought them back, but if there is a next time, try that.

Love the nails! The color is very spring/summer.

Let them grow sprouts and plant your potatoes 😊

I use to wake up with headaches but started using a humidifier. It really made a difference and I rarely wake up with a headache now.

Start using frozen potatoes I know they cost more. We also have fresh potatoes in our fresh section over by biscuit they have hash browns diced potatoes it potatoes they are great if you are in a hurry they are peeled ready for the. Pot.

It might sound weird but always smell your bag of potatoes. I was a grocery cashier for 14 years and as soon as the customer would load their rotten potatoes on the belt, I could smell them😅 It would happen a lot.

Would it be faster & easier to dump everything in slow cooker together instead of precooking the meat every time?

Thanks for sharing xxx

49:17 if I would’ve lived closer, I would’ve taken the dressers, but oh well, what brand are they?

Can I please know where you get your recipe from.

Its always good to size up she will grow into it

we use only white now idk when or why I changed as I grew up using yellow onion with brown skin . my grandma used all kinds. my hubby only wht so must of been around 1985. I buy the yellow still but to make my onion powder

Walmart sells pants that are a 6 slim an ones with the adjustable waist you just have to look through the clothes to find them since 6/7 is is to big

Day in a life is back! Yeah! Have a nice weekend. Here in Portugal Monday is off 😘

order them online gurl youd save so much time order to puck up hahah

Years ago we had talked about going to a black church. Interracial family. My grandson popped up and asked where do we find one? The ones we see are all painted white or are wood color. Lol

Love these videos. Thank you 🧡

How do you make cowboy stew?

Have you tried strawberry soda and chocolate ice cream?

Plant them in your garden!

Hope you all have a wonderful upcoming weekend. Looking forward to your next video.

I live in WNY, I have called Wegman's with a similar problem, they will have someone deliver them to you!!

Can you post the full recipe of the cowboy stew? It looks wonderful!!
