LAST DAY OF SCHOOL WITH 12 KIDS 

Dayshawn popping the balloons over Bodhi & Harlee’s heads instead of throwing them at them was so sweet

Dayshawn is a wonderfully courteous young man looking after the littles by popping the balloons over their backs rather than throwing them but then whaling on Dad/Josh (i wont presume to know how they address each other at this point it's not my place) absolutely wonderful to see rhe whole family having such a fun time and respect to allowing the kids that opted out to do so 💜 have a wonder summer Doughertys love from your native Ireland 🇮🇪💜🙏

Dayshawn softly popping the water balloons on Bodhi and Harlee. Lol

Harlee with her sweet heart glasses pushed back on her head like her Momma 😍😍😍. This last day of school sounds like a blast! You are amazing, Alicia!

Sending you hugs for your children and videos. I have watched a couple other large family videos cuz I enjoy watching them. But honestly the draw for me is content, your bubbly personality. The love you have for each of your children comes through your shopping trips. As your shopping your thinking out loud, your so aware and in tune with each of them. You remember which kids like which foods, which ones are not interested in the same drinks, cereal ect. You always remember who wants to try something new or special. My daughter is doing a day camp for 65 students, she exclaimed 16 loads of laundry she had to be done for them.. I laughed and said imagine that every week for just your family. You are a super special Mom. Never a cross word between the children or yourself. Your patience is hard to comprehend. The day your husband asked you, if your still thought he was attractive, so so sweet. Congratulations on every level. Do you have any video's on how you manage Christmas?

Bodhi: dad don’t you wet me. Josh: I won’t. Bodhi: wet me, do it 😂 so adorable! I swear we’ve seen Bodhi really grow his confidence and understanding these past several months. Im here rooting for you Bodhi! You have come so far and I’m so proud of you 🧡

I absolutely loved it. That balloon fest was great, it looked like soooooo much fun. It so good to see something positive in this world. I watch your videos all the time and think the two of you are doing a wonderful, keep up the good work. The fruits of your labor is going to be very prosperous. Those kids will do great things.

This is possibly the most precious video!!! Watching the kids and you and Josh playing is the best. You're creating wonderful memories. 🥰

I can't tell you enough how amazing it is that you care about your kids so much and even remember the things they like, like when you said "The twins will be happy there will be white chocolate". That's so sweet! 😊❤

I'm impressed with how the older kids play gentler with the little ones. Do they ever fight? They are lucky to have such good parents

This whole day looked so fun!!! Bless Dayshawn, he was so considerate of the little kids that he busted the balloons over them with his hands rather than throw them!!!

This was so nostalgic for me, even though i didn't get to do any of those activities when i was a kid. Amazing memories theyll have and will definitely miss when theyre older. You guys are awesome parents, no doubt about that

The water balloon fight was my favorite part of the video!! Dayshawn is so sweet with the little ones popping the water over them not throwing the balloons at them ❤️

Ahh, last day of school! Water Balloon party is a great way to celebrate! They'll NEVER forget this!❤❤

It's so sweet that the older kids show the younger ones how to do something :)

They will remember this day forever. Hope they all had fun! 😂❤

What a great celebration 🎉 of the last day of school. Great job Alicia, and Josh on the water balloon fight. Everyone looked like they had a lot of fun🎉🎉🎉.

I would like to point out that Dayshawn was very cute with the littles during the balloon fight, bc I noticed that he was sweet and would burst the balloon with his hand and dribble the water over the kids and not hurl it at them as he could of, they got to experience all of the enjoyment without the possible sting. Very sweet.

Her little bow and outfit went so lovely with her blew eye, love how it all tied in!!

Hey there, Alicia! I really enjoyed last year’s vlog with the balloon fight. New clothes to go with the Jo Jo bows sounds about right, Harlee. 😂

All the kids are just so special.. but dash is everything

This looked like so much fun! The kids really enjoyed themselves. I love the water balloon fight and the ice cream with kids putting on their own toppings. Happy Summer! I am the same way with the kids it is better to go without them otherwise more things will be purchased that is not needed lol. Harlee will love the Gabby dollhouse if you get it for her birthday. I got it for my daughter and 2 years later she is still playing with it and you can get accessories to decorate the different rooms. We have missing things as our pup likes to chewy on all the kids toys lol.

😂😂😂😂😂 “entrance out” I know that’s right Harlee. That cracked me up lol & it was so cute Dayshawn didn’t want to hurt Harlee so he just squeezed the water on her 🥹❤️

All I can say is cherish every moment with your children, they fly by so fast! Enjoy life!! Love water balloons battles and I am an oldster! I guess I am a kid with an old body!!

Thanks for taking us along, it looked like so much fun! I love how the older kids look out for the little ones, you can tell it just comes naturally to them. I think that’s awesome!

"You said straws!" 😂😂❤❤ that was hilarious 😂, Alicia, you are busy! 12 kids! I don't know how you manage, but I love watching you guys!

Our kids in scotland go on their school holidays from Wednesday and upto now we've had scorching weather for weeks, not too normal for Scotland. Nature has provided one big water balloon in the form of torrential rain so water ballooning might be off the agenda for now, but these celebrations you have will forever be ingrained with the kids - fun in the sun and parents who involve themselves with them.

I’ve never wanted to come through the phone and help someone more than I did with those water balloon packages 😂😂

This was a joy to watch and Patrick was so sweet showing Bodhi how to use the whipped cream. 🧡

I just love what your doing for these kids, love the laughs

“Those kids are in really good shape” LOL Josh is too funny

❤ so beautiful to see all those kids having fun !

Loving the vlogs! Day in the life is my favorite ❤

Aww I remember when my niece was OBSESSED with Jojo Siwa bows 😂😂 they're so big and cute

It is so beautiful to see children happy&laughing... kudos to you as parents..

What a great time was had by all. So fun watching everyone running and having so much fun

Prayed for all of you this morning in my devotional prayers…You’re the BEST MOM. because everything you do for the children, you do it with your heart. God bless you and the family, always.

What an amazing day, thank you for sharing all the wonderful moments. The kids are having so much fun!

This reminded me of when I was young and we had water balloon fights. Of course, back then we had to fill them up one at a time, so we had to make each one count. LOL

I remember those water balloon fights. Love it harlee doing her shopping.😂. Yes school supplies.

I love you guys so much!! Congrats to everyone to another ending and to a new beginning!! 💜💜🙏🏽🙏🏽

My grandkiddos had those preorder school supplies. Very convenient and you avoid the crazy school supply shopping. We live in suburban Chicago.

This looked like so much fun! I loved seeing the kids have fun, Patricks giggle was just contagious and Dash wanting the water dumped on him had me cracking up!

❤❤❤ love this ! But, I couldn’t imagine picking all the balloons up lol. Looks like they had a great day.

I love how the older kids just bust the balloons over Harlee’s head instead of throwing them at her

I’ve never smiled and laughed so hard during a video! Your family is awesome!

For waterballoons you could find reusable ones online! They are spherical and open in half and can be filled up over and over. Probably eventually helps out on $100+ a year haha

This is a amazing video I really did enjoy this video. The kids had lots of fun. Love it 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

I love your swim suit Alicia! So much fun and the children certainly enjoyed you and Josh joining in! Enjoy your summer and be safe! Love and blessings for you all! 😎🥰💕🙏
