“I don’t need tipsy children!” 😂😂😂 that made me laugh!!
Your children are always dressed so nice. They are all sweet and kind. I’m a Nanny , I know they are not like that all the time. At least a good when you go out. I love how your husband as a watchful eye on everyone. Enjoy your days together! Diane from Rhode Island ❤❤❤❤
❤️🙏🙏
I really love Enoch! He’s such a sweetie! His comment on “I’m gonna look weird, if I get in the line again..”🤣
I was thrilled today whenI scored 2 beef roasts when grocery shopping. I am not a fan of hamburger and kind of tired of chicken. But there was not a fresh tomatoe....sold out. Things are so expensive. This was my big shopping for the month. Glad it is done. I am learning from your shopping and getting ideas for meals. Love to you all!! Your family is amazing!!
Melody’s hair is soo adorable!
I love how Naomi is making her own birthday meal 🤍
Happy birthday Naomi hope it's filled full of the things u love and enjoy
Mo is a very good boy when shopping! Good manners!
With you talking about Naomi loving Thai food if there’s ingredients you struggle to find in your normal grocery stores, NYC has a Chinatown and the stores are amazing. When I come to the city for trips I always end up bringing home ingredients from there as souvenirs lol
If you wrap your celery in foil it will last longer. You can also chop it up and freeze it for soups & stews. If you don't use all your peppers they freeze well too.
Happy Birthday Naomi!!
🥳🎉🎊😘🙏❤️🙌🏼
That was so sweet when Mark gave you a stolen kiss in the dark! 💙💛💜
Enoch is the sweetest..enjoyed his conversation❤️all of your kids are wonderful, but today Enoch was super sweet
Naomi baking her birthday cake reminds me of my oldest brother. He did that as a teen and now is a good scientist, so it led to something cool!
Exciting menus to look forward to! Enjoy!
Happy, Happy Birthday Naomi🎉🎉❤🥳🎂💖🌟
Loved your shopping 🛍 😍 everything you pick looks so yummy 😋 ! Your date night to the local grocer was really pretty cool😊🙏❤️
I adore the way y’all love your children ❤

Can’t wait to see what Naomi makes for her birthday meal. The rice papers are for fresh spring rolls. Kind of a lot of work, but well worth it. Happy birthday Naomi!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY NAOMI🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Save that coco container. Beautiful!
Hope Naomi has the best birthday ever. Your kids are awesome I had the best time ever watching your videos me and my cat Chewbacca will watch together and yes I am a big Star Wars fan.
❤️🙏🥰
Have a nice day. 😊
2:14 Wait - that ranch dressing is SOOO GOOD! Just tried it for the first time last week. Was 💯 expecting to not like it & return it… nope! It’s a keeper! 🧡
Yes! It’s so yummy!
Yay another vlog❤❤❤
Love Melody’s cute hair do!
A good way to get celery to last a long time… is to take it out of the plastic and wrapt it in aluminum foil. I use to go ahead and cut the end off and wrap it, but I’ve done it either way. I figure if you’re going to discard of the end… go ahead and take it off and save room in fridge. It works! If it goes limp, but not slimy, cut end off of pieces mayb 1/4” and out in water. It rehydrates.
I lived on an island with no stores, bridges, nothing, so I leaned a lot of hacks that way.
Worth a try.
If your romaine begins to dry out or go limp… cut bottom part off that you’d normally discard. Fill bowl with cold or ice water and soak. Voila!
😂 Truly Amber I love your sense of humor 🎉 I like to crack my own eggs 🤣🤣
Enjoy Naomi's b day
Bravo for Enoch ! He knows the food in the "food court" is super bad! That is impressive!
Your eyes look sooo blue in this video !! Beautiful
❤️❤️❤️
Yay another sweet awesome yummy grocery Haul I love all if these hugs and love to you all and baby 11 sweet dearest friends The Happy Caravan 😊❤
Thank you Sarah!❤️🙏🥰
@TheHappyCaravan your welcome sweet dearest friends The Happy Caravan 😊 ❤️
If you slice in half the avocado pit there's some more avocado inside. To keep bananas from going brown, wrap the stems in plastic wrap. And yellow and red bell peppers, there are male and females, the males are for cooking and the females are for raw eating. I've heard that all vegetables have males and females, I just know what the difference is with red and yellow peppers.
"You'll keep 3 in your room" 😂 Do you also have a hidden cookie stash? 😊
Haha yes, that way they don’t eat them all at once😅
Love shopping with you!🛒🛒🛒
Grocery day must be exhausting for you and Mark, but like you said the family must eat!
Your husband organizes everything...like my husband does
I got me 2 of those ranch dressing. They are so good. Im a salad fan also.
Yes! They are so good!😅
@@TheHappyCaravanyes I got to have on my salads.
My youngest daughter’s birthday is 10/27/82. Yay!
🤣🤣🤣🤣why is it the first word kids learn is NO. Mine said no to everything even when they wanted something.
I once heard NO is easier for toddlers to say than mastering YES?
Of course Mo found the mandarin oranges 😂
I don't know why but I always find your videos very relaxing to watch. I guess its not the same for you.
❤️🙏
You should get the peppers from Costco 😊
Good Morning! Haha! Your shelves are full! God is good! Your meals sound divine this week! Haha! Your kids keep picking out food and bringing it to you My kids do this! Oh my gosh! 666! Bless his heart! Not bad totals for a family of 12. We spend about the same for our family of 13. Oh how I. Two is such a fun age, haha! Sending love from Wisconsin!🫶
Yes! Food is pretty spendy nowadays!❤️
Can’t wait to see the menu for Naomi’s birthday!🎂
We get the meatloaf at Costco occasionally
I make my own macaroni and cheese and my meat loaf and shepherd’s pie
I find it odd that here in New Zealand we have a lot of 24 hour supermarkets and not many of the others would close before 10pm. It was also interesting that the asian ingredients were so foreign. We have them in most supermarkets but we also have a lot of Asian supermarkets for other rarer items.
I enjoy watching your talented family. I'm a Costco man and a Piano man. In fact, I have videos playing piano at Costco in New Jersey. 🎹
That’s so cool!
I love melodys hairstyle like this, it’s suits how cute she is. Who did it?
Assistindo de Portugal 🇵🇹 beijinhos grandes 😊
Cheese makes me happy after a tantrum too! I might still be a toddler 😂
Haha me too!😅
Lol Moses is adorable. Amber do you encourage your kids to take music or do they just look up to the older ones and follow them? Also what would you say or do if the new baby didn't want to take music but ballet instead? Love your videos. I'm new here. Been watching several decided to subscribe.
🙏❤️I think the little kids see the big ones play and they want to play too!
@@TheHappyCaravan Thank you for replying back. You have a beautiful family who are very talented. They play beautifully. Little Moses is very smart. I love when you ask a question and he answers back and he also likes to try so many different foods. Most kids won't even try them. Have a great day.
Hi, I always look forward to your shopping trips. I just love how appreciative the children are when they ask if they can get a certain item and you tell them yes. My heart just melts when they thank you. They are so sweet! Mark is so awesome also and so are you!
❤❤❤
Sams club does a better job checking what you have then Costco. my Costco they just put a check through it so I do not think they really check. thanks for sharing.
Out of curiosity do you have a home delivery service there ? In the UK we can order from supermarkets and get it all delivered which I love because I find it all too time consuming and a little stressful going to the supermarket.
Yes! But with the unpredictable nature of what’s on the shelves it’s helpful to just go see for ourselves. But I do see a number of people in Costco shopping for other people.
I miss the kids taste testing samples at Costco
Hi you Need to try rooibos tee. For whole family.
Yes!!! We love it! I usually get a bulk rooibos from Amazon.
Trader Joe’s is so expensive,how do you do it? Do you ever go out of the city to shop
Melody❤
Hi mommy Amber, I'm one of your avid followers,... love your chanel & admire your family a lot, especially all the wellbehave kids and so much talents too.... Just suggestion though, please don't let Enoch mature questions & witty remarks left (most of the times) hanging on air... I felt like, most of the times his remarks are taken for granted... For me because Enoch & Melody Joy are my favorites both of them brings a lot of smile on my face with their natural selves & their hilarious comments , sometimes... I think, it was mentioned before on other comments sections on one of your previous videos....about Enoch being left out within some conversations he's trying to relay..
Be blessed de la Motte family
🙏❤️
Hi, i think avocado mayo is more affordable at costco
Yes! But we usually can’t use it all before it gets old but still it probably is a better deal!
Could you buy on or 2 extra of things and get them built up so some weeks you don’t have to buy as much
They don’t have the space she’s went over that before that’s why they shop weekly and only able to buy 6 milks that’s all they have room for
❤
Lo mein is wheat noodles.
Can u vist wisconsin new subscriber happy birthday Naomi
Yes! I’d love too. I lived in North Chicago as a kid and I remember going to Wisconsin and it was beautiful! Good cheese too!🙌🏼😉
@@TheHappyCaravan ty
Granola isn't hard to make! Think that naomi will easily make it! She is a wonderful cook and baker!
Do all your kids drink a soda on shopping night? Even melody? I am just wondering, my 9yo really doesnt like soda because of how it feels in her mouth.
Some kids like soda, some don’t but we usually just have it on shopping day because it has so much sugar!😅
I think that is great, you make it more fun for them to come around. They get to learn what they like and what not. It's not like you skip all of the sugar.
We personally have a lot of candy at home, but my daughter Just loves fruit and water. So that are mainly her choices!
Looks like the frozen cherries won't be there much longer as the price ends in .97, which means it's on clearance.
Oh no!😭
But hopefully they're just switching to another brand. My Houston location has the Smart Harvest brand and I started using it in my smoothies after watching your channel and now I'm hooked😋 @@TheHappyCaravan
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Does the sourdough bread pizza taste better than the English muffin pizza?
The kids prefer it for now. They got a little tired of the English muffin pizzas I think.
@@TheHappyCaravan I’m going to try it. Thanks for the idea
💜🧡
1st view lol!
Don’t refrigerate bell peppers. If you note, they are not in the fridge at the store.
Amber, I don't think Just Salad is worth the price you pay. They make the salad for you and they give you mainly lettuce. It is so sad that the Target had to close down because of thieves. They not only are busting out store windows to steal, now they are making counterfeit money to buy things with. I don't know what this World has become. Well I do know, but I'll keep my thoughts to myself. Shortbread are one of my favorite cookies. They go so well with a cup of tea. Moses sitting on those steps like a little grumpy old man was so cute. 😂🤣
❤️❤️❤️
You have so many groceries which I have never seen here in the UK.
I hope you saved some milk for every1 else with your 6 gallons every week ; moo ; moo ! 😂💯😅
Quite sure their six gallons isn't putting the slightest dent in Costcos supply of milk.... No families are being deprived I'm sure...
Haha I think there’s plenty left!
That Romaine lettuce comes from where I live in Santa Cruz County..just curious you say no to cereal and yogurt that has too much sugar, but you buy bags of candy at Costco and Trader Joe’s..🤷🏻♀️
I absolutely love the fact that you do not feed your kids tons of sugar and processed food.
Creating healthy eating habits starts early.
Hi Lovely sweet Amber and Dad the NY urban Chef lol And their sweet kids. Hi my sweet beautiful Melody. I love you sweet girl 👧 Melody is such a unique child. SHE must have all her goody treats packed in her backpack 🎒 and it shines just like Melody 👍 Chloe takes good care of Moses like a little Mama such a sweetheart. LOVE you Chloe and Anna you girls are always dressed So cute. What will Naomi bake for Halloween 🎃 Hey NAOMI why don't you bake some Spooky cookies 🍪 or some

Amber hope you and the baby 👶 are doing well 👍 The greatest shopping 🛍 haul with the de la Motte 👪 Family.. ✌Peace 💜Love sweet blessings to all and to all a restful night ❤ Tell MELODY I LOVE HER PRINCESS LEIA HAIR DO
Do you ever go grocery shopping without the kids.
Yes, sometimes locally. It’s one of the kids’ favorite days though. Melody asks how many days until shopping day.❤️
I am just curious, how may children do you want? X
Definitely love having the kids I have! I always thought having 12 would be neat but so grateful for what I have!
With only 20 mins left to shop before the store closes the employees where i shop wouldn't be so nice
💯✅👸🏻🌷🌸🌸👑
270.00 for all is a great price. Go trader Joe's!!!
Maybe try bringing a cooler to do all at once. 🤷
Yes that’s a good idea!
I'm curious why you still have Moe's car seat turned backwards. He's a big boy now.
Why do most of the kids go grocery shopping?
They live going and it’s a learning experience.
