- Life can get really expensive but there are always things you can do to help your expenses stay in check. I know I can and need to do better on my expenses but here are a few ideas that have helped us over the years to make it possible to support a large family.

Please don't say sorry b/c something is not cleaned off. You are human. You have kids. You live in a home not a museum. Thanks for sharing another great video!
I agree. A home is for living. Living means life. Life means moving.
She just know that some people will be unkind. I think she’s great
I think it was a smart thing to apologize because there are people who will tell her about it or bring it up. Her home is fabulous and she is amazing, but other people will try and sabotage her channel. By apologizing ( not that she should) it cuts the hater’ comments down. Shame but truth. I agree with you, she is a mom and her house looks great.
@@ivorstankovic5076 I can totally understand that, It sad that people have be rude like that tho.
a lot of people do this off camera though
Would love to see how you do meal planning, groceries and budgeting.
Me to
Yes! Meal planning!!! And budgeting too. ;)
Yes
Meal planning, budgeting and grocery shopping, abd cooking, yes please!!!
Came from a family of seven.
Asked my dad how he did it. He said, it's not hard if you're not trying to keep up with the Jonses. And he was frugal. And mechanically inclined, so he could fix or build just about anything. Couldn't cook, though. Mom rocked that out. She could feed an army on random pantry items. She was "Chopped" champion long before Food Network existed. Love and mad respect for my parents.
Very true to many have beautiful homes and you don’t see children live in the home.This home is all child friendly it’s lived in but homely for all the children.x
I love tip number 5, I love the idea of telling kids their budget & allowing them to shop/browse online to stay within that budget. This is empowering for them when it comes to their decision-making & is so good for their growth.
I pack my husband lunch when I put away our dinner. Taking your own food to work definitely saves you money on your food bill.
Packing lunch is much healthier too!
@@kimberlyeder4162 very true.
At always depends on what you pack/choose to buy. I remember helping my aunt pack my uncles lunches (20 years ago mind you) and it was things like bags of chips, veinna sausage (yes those salty tiny hot dogs in a can) pudding cups, homemade cookies or brownies or store bought ones.. Maybe some Mac-n-cheese, Lunchables. It was always a lot of food... Now she packs her now boyfriend more healthy things (still very full) and recently seen him complaining on facebook about "Wth is this?! What is she feeding me" and it ended up being a pudding cup style container filled with homemade cinnamon apple oatmeal 🤣
All that to say, the protein salad bowls may be expensive at subway, they are way more healthier than some packed lunches.
We don’t have leftovers lol
9-12 ppl here eating
Can’t imagine leftovers
@@YeshuaKingMessiah wow you cook for 9 to 12 people every night. You are a Rock Star.
Blows my mind that everyone doesn’t live this way. We do every one of your suggestions. Yes interested in your Ramsey modifications - Danya
Same here!
i’m literally 15 watching a these videos. i’m obsessed with watching moms manage their life with kids. i feel like videos like these are going to make parenting so much easier for me in 10 years
Smart !
Wise!!
Can hou share who else you follow?
Make sure you are not watching these videos to scape your own responsibilities at the moment. I wish you the best and hopefully you would be in a more comfortable situation while applying those tips.
I also have a big family (12 kids) we live the same, save and diy everything ourselves:) that’s what it all about!
We do too. We have 9 kids. But we're in one income. Hopefully soon on two especially since I want to adopt 🤞. But I also want to work from home so I can keep homeschooling.
I would like an entire video of how you worked full time with all your kids. Maybe a year-by-year from the start of how you made adjustments to your work schedule and childcare as more kids came and went to school etc. We are trying to balance the work and kids right now so we'd love to hear the details. I was excited that there existed a working mom of 15 kids. I thought there was some limit before mom just needed to come home but I'm happy to hear otherwise.
By the way this is Mark's wife typing haha.
@@mwniels lol :-)
She runs an at home daycare, so she is home
She definitely did come home to work because she stated that she runs a daycare out of her home
I bet kids love going to her house for daycare. They have so many other kids to play with. It's like a big play date every day. ❤
So interesting to me, because in NZ you can only have a max of four children per adult and it barely is a full-time wage.
There’s definitely laws in the u.s also so I’m wondering the same thing unless the older ones are counted as employees also
I think it is 12 in the US... Last I knew... (My mom had her own daycare in our house as well but this was in the 90s)
@@AllieAtkinson Same as Australia. I used to do family daycare from home. Our ratios are 4 children under school age to one carer. We aren’t allowed to employ others to work with us at home either. We’re allowed 3 school age children and no more than 2 under the age of 1. We have to include our own children into the ratios (including children under the age of 12) as well. I doubt she’d be allowed to operate here because she has so many of her own young children.
@@Kim-Papercrafter oh :( I didn't know that. I'm Australian and was considering this!
I think you are a fascinating woman! You are very level headed and realistic. You have some amazing ideas and I've found a ton of value from your videos. Would love to see more content from you.
Its truly awe inspiring how organized and harmonious this household operates. Im amazed and genuinely impressed.. I wish more moms could be as wonderful.
Interested in the budget suggestions .. and a dishes video. I really need a “how to train your kids and husband” on dishes
Have them come in and watch while you explain every single detail. "First, I put in the plug and squirt soap 3 times. Not 2, not 4. Then, fill the sink about half way with hot water, fill the other sink or the dish tub half way with hot water, put on the dish gloves. Wash glasses first, wipe around the rim a few times, then use this glass brush here and double check...." Just say whatever it is that you do in excruciating detail while demonstrating it.
Remind them throughout that if they go on to do the dishes later and don't do it well, you'll have to do the entire demonstration all over again with each dish they messed up.
At that point, most children and husbands will start doing the dishes correctly, just for the sake of not having to hear you go over all that again. Make sure the children are old enough, 7 or 8 is a good age to start if they can reach the sink and responsibly be around hot water.
@@silvernblack21 you’re the best. I don’t even have to tell hubby anything other than,” be there for parental support and chime in when it’s needed” he’s forced to be there and listen w/out having to be coddled.
At my mother in law's house, after we eat, we rinse our plates and put them in the dishwasher automatically. They take care of the pots and pans
Hi! Could you please share how you do day schedules and sleep times? I don't know how you get all your kids to go to bed! Lol I have 3 school age who stall and talk at bed time.
You look so young and beautiful I'd give you max 30yrs old!!!! Really curious at what age you birth your first one to the last? What is the age difference between all of them??
I thought 8 kids is alot 😆 wow you're inspiring me for more!!!
🙋🏻♀️On my fifth one for now🥰
I'd be interested in modified Dave Ramsey for bigger family we have used it and continue to when we had a smaller family
Thanks! I think it's good for folks to know you've been working toward this beautiful home for 21 years. You guys are doing things right! :)
I think you do a fantastic job managing your household finances and raising your children to know the value of money.
I’m in awe of your mom skills!! I have three kids and feel like I’m drowning lol
Your accent is interesting, where are you from?
I love that practical tip of how to teach children to value money. Thank you for your tips! The patio is amazing! Well done.
Right now (pandemic), you can rent out the theaters for $100. We rented one for tonight and 4 families are going - only $25 a family.
Great idea!! Hope you all still wear your masks, since you are all not members of the same household, and theaters typically do not have hospital-grade HVAC systems, filters, etc. 😷
In Seattle and Washington State, they're all closed.
Where are you, just out of curiosity?
Love Dave Ramsay and his Financial Peace University. Been a long-time fan and sub to his channel, as well. He calls it like it is in a firm, gentle, Godly way, right?
Great concept.
⚘🙏❤🙏⚘
@@majoroldladyakamom6948 Nonsense. We do not live in fear of other households.
I kept thinking about the price of the fridge, and was thinking, you can definitely get a new fridge for around that. Then I remembered how big of a fridge you might need. 😅
There are 10 kids in my family and I can definitely say you are doing great. My family has the exact same philosophy for everything.
I loved seeing your kids coming down the stairs!
I have 1 kid (toddler) and my house is more of a mess than yours😜🤷🏼♀️. Wow, love all the tips!
More kids=more help! 🙂
Please do a video on Dave Ramsey! My husband and I are huge fans, but would love to hear how others have tweaked his program.
I loved how a baby came down the stairs and moved on to their own businesss without interrupting mommy!😊
I am amazed how clean your house is! I have two kids and work full time from home during the pandemic and I cannot keep my house clean 😞
Loved your laundry hack but would love to see how you maintain cleaning
I'm sure the older kids have chores.
Yes chore video!!! ❤️👍
What’s the hack
I was distracted during vid
Yes, would love to hear how you plan a budget with large family. We have 9 here and two more on the way!
Yes would love a video on adopting dave ramsey principles for a bigger family.
Wait, KSL? Are you in Utah? So are we! I just redid my girls room because of your laundry video and it's fantastic!!!
We have 9 kids and all your tips are exactly like we do.
You are so encouraging! I love your family ❤
Yes the modified Ramsey video plus. Large family here too, baby #13 coming in July.
Great video! I'm the saver and my husband is the spender so it's difficult to find a happy medium. He gets mad of how "frugal" I am, but I have to be when he buys so excessively lol.
Wow you're a superwoman, incredible! God bless you and your family.
Thank you for visiting in your home. Yes, we live like that too. Me and my 3 daughters buy nothing. No I go to thrift stores or any? Thing I pay for is my working shoes and our glasses. In the dentist, everything is thrift. Stores from fi'm sure I'm closing shoes. Yes my house is a old house 🕊🦋🦚💞
Can you do a video of your diet to go along with your "getting into shape after a birth" video please!?
It is called being busy taking care of 15 kids, with No Outside Help. It will keep your weight down.
Ya
I enjoy your content very much. You are an inspiration for parents with or wanting to have a large family.
I’m so happy you posted! I love your videos, and yes I make all of your food and pack my husbands lunch and coffee every day and all my kids food!
Very sensible and practical advice!
I love your videos. Congratulations on the new baby.❤❤❤❤
I am really impressed how you and your husband run the household. Please do a meal prep/grocery shopping video. 🤩
We all love to see your life. Thanks again for sharing ❤️
I'm a big fan of accents and I don't know exactly where you live because I just found your channel, but I am guessing Utah based on your accent. I had no idea Utah had a regional accent, but it certainly seems to. It's so cool. I bet there's a fascinating history about the settlement of Utah and the confluence of languages and accents that led to the way you speak.
I just came across your channel, I love your personality:). We do most of everything you talked about with, the difference is I only have 3 boys- but I always wished to have a larger family. Even though I'm super frugal and my family makes fun of me, I still look for ways I can challenge myself to save and cut cost while still living well. God bless your family, so happy to have found you!😊🌷💞
God bless you and your beautiful family. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for sharing!! This is so helpful!!
Your family is inspiring. Thank you for sharing. Amazing work!
It's so cute to see your kids in the background.
Love all your babies coming down stairs while your talking... very cute especially little one in pink she is a pro.
God bless you for showing the world the beauty of a large family.
Love all your ideas. Anyone can do them if they want. My furniture is all used, mostly free stuff. I love to refinish things so it all looks really good. People ask how I can afford all these expensive things
Right 😂
Thank you so much for doing these videos. I know that's a lot of time and effort, and I want you to know how much I appreciate them. Looking forward to other videos as you're able ❤️
You are lovely and practical and an inspiration. Cheers!
Very good video! Thank you!
You are awesome!
Congratulations!!
I’m so happy I found your channel!!!
What a wonderful subject! Thanks for sharing practical ideas!
Super late to comment... but just wanted to say you are such an encouragement, and also that patio looks amazing!
Yes please share! Mother of 11 here! Love your content❤
I love the budgets for Christmas and birthdays! Would you mind sharing the amounts you have for each age group? What a wonderful idea!
She gave that in the video when discussing that idea.
@@carylhalfwassen8555 Did she say what she does for over 12. I heard the younger ones but I wasn’t sure for the older ones.
Yes please, definitely interested in your Ramsey’s modification!
Yes I’d love to know how you have adapted the Dave Ramsey program as we have 9 children and have went through and adjusted where needed for our situation. Enjoying your channel!
Great info. 🌟
And you are so pretty. Self care is so important even with having children.
Thanks for sharing!
Excellent video! Thank you so much for all the wonderful tips.
I would love to see videos of budgeting (esp. How much you spend on groceries), grocery shopping hauls, pantry and fridge tours, clothing storage, meals you prepare etc.
Keep up the great work mama, your rocking it.
I’m sure you go through crazy moments but just amazing how you can manage everything
So well with 15 kids. 👍👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🙏🙏
That’s awesome that you are wise with your money. You have a beautiful &
loving home. Who care if you got your items used or not. We also bought our vehicles used and have no car oukents nor mortgage.
Hi! I appreciate you so much for sharing this.
We do the same as you. We live in Romania.
We have only 2 kids, we hope we can adopt 💝 .
The things we bought new in our house: washing machine, and microwave ☺️. I found so much Budget friendly things on second hand selling platforms.
I wish you all the best!!!
New Subscriber 👍. Enjoyed your realistic views an ideas for your family.
Good info for young mothers!
Hope your well God Bless You
Omg. The little one at 7:11 is so independent and cute!! The way she wobbles past you.
So happy to watch you, and keep up the good work. My husband support 10 kids, and me. We are debt free, since last August. We did the Dave Ramsey Baby Steps. I am bless to be able to stay at home, and homeschooling. We have 4 special needs, who have lots of therapies during the week. 🥰 It's hard, but worth it. I am starting college this fall. I cook 7 meals now, because I have diabetes, and we eat super healthy. I was taking care of everyone, except myself so now I have diabetes. It is hereditary, and I got it. Everything we have is used, most of our clothes is too, the only new we had and have is the kids. Lol 😂 😆 🤣 😹 😂 😆
Hsling 10 n going to college?
WHY?
Can’t u wait till just a few high schoolers are left?
Also interested in the Ramsey modifications. :)
I love to hear about your life, it’s intriguing! One thing I just can’t agree with is the fact you have to work and provide, I know the system is made for two incomes but I can’t help but think 15 kids is a full time job and the husband’s responsibility to provide. Also the 50/50 Date nights is so off putting. I love that you have a big family, I wish you all the best!
Would love to hear what specific modifications you have made to the Dave Ramsey plan to fit your family size!
I would like to see videos of the groceries you choose each month and how much it is and some meal ideas you have and also yours and your kids full day routine.
Great video with a lot of great suggestions. Would like to see a breakdown of your budgeting
awesome tips!
Hello Nancy,
Im loving your video its my first time to come across your chanel first but not last rime 🙂
And honestly your home is very clean with 15 kids wow its very clean & tidy👍
And i love big family i have alwaus dreamd to have 6 kids and my family was like what🤔🤣 but unfortnly i ONLY have 2 beautyful girls.
God Bless you and your family
Stay safe
You have 15 kids and you still have time for youtube! Amazing!! 😍
Yes! Interested in your husband creating a budget video.
Thank you for being a godly and kind example of a virtuous woman. You have helped encourage me to do better, and to honor the Lord in all areas of being a wife and a mother. Thank you
If I compare you and my mom. You are a very simple person, you look really healthy and strong, no BS, my mom was a mess, emotionally totally a mess. No wonder I suffered so much during growing up. And I'm an only child. Probably she would fell apart if there was more than only me.
What color are your walls by the staircase where you’re standing? I love that!
Yes would love to see a video on Ramsey modification please
Waiting for next episode!
so how do you take care of your health you have 15 kids and look amazing!!! Would love to see how you schedule your time between work and exercise and activities
Definitely interested in the Ramsey modifications for a big family
I would love if you shared your chore list and detail budgeting. Please!
I work in finance & would love to hear your tips. Thanks!
Could you please do a video on how you keep your house clean!
Idk what KSL is but I'm checking that out. Thanks for letting me know that exists !
Definitely interested in a Ramsey video!
Thank you this was very helpful. With the birthday gift amounts does that include celebrating the birthday too- things like cake/special food/special activity or does it just relate to their gifts? Thank you
How did you manage a full-time job outside the home with kids? Before you had the daycare job.
We have 9 kids and the best thing we did was worked really hard to pay off our mortgage. That was a game changer. If you don’t have a lot of debt it’s easy to afford everything
You did the fifty_fifty?
