We have a small family compared to yours only 5 people plus animals. It makes me so happy to see a large family buying the best that they can for their children. Good on you and your husband for budgeting and being able to do this for your children’s health!
I agree. There are other large family vloggers that mainly feed their kids junk and processed food. The dougherty dozen are the worst that I've seen. This family buys healthy with a few treats on special occasions and it's admirable since they have a large family.
Awww, this is amazing!! You are blessed with a beautiful large family 😊 thank you for sharing your haul. I am married with no children yet, but I hope to have many with my husband!
So true! I have 6 kids n just REALLY want to give her shopping a massive makeover. She makes NOTHING from scratch and that would save THOUSANDS each year and likely time, trash, and recycling.
I really enjoy watching your videos!! I do watch videos of others who have many children! (I had 8, wanted more). So I do enjoy watching you!! I noticed that other large families don’t seem to have as much well behaved children as your family! I commend you! Maybe organized chaos? Idk!! But you have done a wonderful job with your family, your children!! Much love, respect and ❤️ feels for you!! ❤️
Thank you for the kind comment. It means a lot. I do try very hard to have well behaved and well mannered kids (as I’m sure everyone tries) and I know I can do better but thank you for noticing.
You are such an inspiration Nancy! And you look amazing, too. You give so much wise advice and are such an encouragement for us moms who aspire to have a large family. Your haul is incredible and I'd LOVE to see your meal and snack ideas! Hurray for no, dyes, good honey, grassfed beef and raw milk too💪 ❤️❤️❤️
Oh WOW 14 Gallons of Milk per week, being by myself, i can only finish a half a gallon in a month. But growing up with 6 people in our family we wemt through 6 to 8 gallons of milk per week. So i can understand the quantity with the larger family.
I absolutely love how healthy you try to keep your family's diet. And I like that you show it's not perfect and say there's room for improvement. That shows you're always willing to learn and make changes when you find better alternatives. If you want a sweetener that does not raise the body's insulin, try allulose or stevia. Honey and fructose raise the body's insulin higher than you might want.
@@arnicepernice8656yes! I actually had a mass on my pituitary gland in my brain and my neurologist told me to cut out all artificial sweeteners including stevia. He said stevia was one of the bad ones. They are endocrine disrupters or in other words mess with your brain and hormones. I stopped and my mass went away and I am healthy and my hormones are normal now! I also try to eat as clean as possible and organic if possible as well! Maybe this will help someone.
@@amandalong2153How is stevia artificial, I have a stevia plant that's grown huge. We can dry the leaves or simply rinse well, tear up or bruise a bit, and then put in teas or drinks. Maybe it's the processed stevia that's an issue?
Love your videos! ❤ thank you for sharing your hauls! Believe it or not, a lot of people spend more $ than that on way less. The amount some ppl spend of soda and snacks is unreal. I’m even guilty of it! Seems like you manage the amount needed very well.
That’s very good to know I have never been to Trader Joe but I have recently heard about it and plan to make a trip I have a feeling I’m going to love it there I will for sure look into the ice cream cones
Hello there! Wow you do a great job! I shop similar to you. I was going to guess around $1,500.00 Good for you! I would hate buying that much milk at one time but that’s probably your easier trips. 😅 Great video! Your children are so cute! Thanks for sharing.
For if you ever do a q&a! I’ve noticed a lot of larger families make their older children care for the younger children - what would you say your family dynamic is like in terms of this, with how yall function and operate?
Your so wise in shopping for your family , these large family’s that buy so much junk , pre package food and tons of snacks , not good for children , there setting there children up for poor health as they age older , children need fresh fruits , vegetables, lots of water not pop and fruit juice with tons of sugar , I understand it’s more convenient box , can foods , but take the time to make healthy food , parents , save on Dr bills for sure fir your children 😢
PERSON, I get it, you want to let your kid eat healthy and all, but once in awhile wouldn't hurt to eat like 1 junk food item, IF YOU ONLY FEED UR KID APPLES FRUIT STICKS AND VEGGIES EVERYDAY THAT IS *TORTURE!!*
I think everyone tries their best. It's important to remember that not everyone has the same priorities in parenting. People also have children with neurodivergence. We can praise this channel without speaking ill of others. I make 12,000 a year. I could never feed my children all organic even if I desperately wanted to.
She said they made cake sometimes with honey. She said sometimes they had sugar. If they visit people those people might have sugary sweet treats. I can understand with that many children you don’t want them all hyped up on sugar besides the health issues.
Thank you for sharing. I would love to see a video on how you store all your food, like the bananas and milk without going bad. Also,what are some of your family’s recipes?
Im honestly impressed. I have 4 kids (we homeschool, so eat every meal at home) but your week cost is just over double what we spend. Person to dollar ratio, youre blowing me out of the water!
I love what you do! I too buy as much as I can organic as well as eliminating all processed sugar and making sure my meats are grass fed. I am not a honey fan (but I'm glad you like it). I like to use coconut sugar for everything in replace of processed sugar. It tastes, bakes, and cooks just like processed sugar 1 for 1. Though once in a while I have to take the coconut sugar and use it to make powdered sugar to work with a particular recipe. I also have some recipes that use dates as the sweetener, and that's super delicious, too. I am new to your channel, so I'm not familiar with the videos you have made. I'm hoping you have one on how you meal plan for the month.
yes it is 12 kids at home. my married kids come over about twice a week for dinner as well and I do daycare during the day so even when kids are at school we still have 8-9 kids at the house for lunch and snacks. so we feed a lot of people for sure.
Primal kitchen for sauces!! We buy their Mayo, ketchup, spicy ketchup, mustard, etc. it’s all really good! Our fav Mayo is the garlic Mayo! It doesn’t last long but if you want organic, we have found this is the best bc there’s no seed oils! We actually make our own Mayo now and it is not hard if you look into it!
I would love to see some of your recipes that you sun honey for sugar. I've been wanting to make the switch. However, $200 a month for a bucket of honey is so expensive!
Honey is for sure more expensive than sugar however, I’m sure a bucket of honey would last too much longer than it does me it is pretty much one for one on the substitution so I guess just think about how many pounds of sugar you use and that’s probably about the amount of honey you would use.
They are Corelle and I absolutely love them. They are very thin so you can get stack a lot and they are very strong and do not break as easily as normal glass plates. You can get them at a lot of stores. I know Walmart carries them. You can even get them on Amazon.
Did you know you can freeze milk? I worked in a Group Home and was responsible for doing the grocery shopping. I had a prepared list and purchased monthly. When I inquired about purchasing milk for a month because of expiration dates. The supervisor told me to store half of the many gallons of milk in the freezer. You thaw it in the refrigerator and make sure you shake it well before using! 😊 I’m enjoying your videos!
@@nancygreene7090 thank you for the comment and idea I don’t know that I would have enough fridge or freezer space for a whole month worth of milk. The 14 gallon we get is only for one week so we use it before it goes bad and we just get it weekly, but thanks for the tip.
Also, I don't know where you live but there is a company called naturally a deal that has bulk food discounted (sometimes a bit past expiration). They have local drops once every 3-4 weeks. They often have organic options😂
Hi, I'm Priscilla, and I am a daughter of a family of 10 and I love how you get your kids healthy stuff, but it wouldn't hurt for once in awhile for them to eat some sugar. God bless you, have a nice day 👋
Hello! Your videos are such fun to watch. I expected the mass amount of milk, but it didn't look like as much toilet paper I thought there would be. Thank you for sharing!
they do have some sauces that are organic but my kids aunt fans of the taste and don't eat it very well. I'm hoping to just figure out a good recipe and bottle my own eventually.
Growing up we only had sugar for birthdays. And my mom steered clear of dyes and crazy unpronounceable ingredients. Thankful for that. I’ve done the same for my kids and now my grandkids as well are being raised with healthy foods.
Wow! I make everything from scratch and get most of my animal foods locally, and I spend twice that amount with 7 children. I'm in Florida, so I think that's why. Food might be more expensive here.
Over time I’ve cut then sugar down in my recipes and now I only use about half the amount. So, honey for me can really be stretched because it is more expensive. This wouldn’t work if you just immediately cut it. But, my kids didn’t notice over time.
@@RealMomRealSolutions I hope to get raw milk sometime too. That’s awesome you can get 14 a week. I don’t have any friends getting raw milk that get that many!!
@RealMomRealSolutions it looked raw. Do you make butter and cream when it seperates? We have access to fresh raw from Amish farms around and just welcomed 2 Jersey calves onto our homestead for future dairy needs for our large family!
Fun seeing your grocery haul:). Just a family of four here plus two dogs, which are treated like kids:). I make their dog food monthly and that adds up, but absolutely worth it! Is the beeping your fire alarm?
I don’t know where you’re located the store that I buy it from is called Johns marketplace but it’s only here in Utah and they only have one location. However, I have gotten it from local bee farmers as well and you may be able to find someone like that in your area by searching for them

God bless ur wonderful family. Please post videos more often! ❤
Love seeing what works for your family! Thank you for sharing!
Beautiful family. So great to see you buy organic ❤
Thanks for sharing! I really enjoy videos from your sweet family. 💜
Love those bending shelves in that fridge under the weight of that milk. 😂
That's really not bad for the size of your family. Good for you!
Awww, this is amazing!! You are blessed with a beautiful large family 😊 thank you for sharing your haul. I am married with no children yet, but I hope to have many with my husband!
I live on a farm. You should buy a whole cow from a local farmer. That is super healthy meat at a good price
We do buy a whole cow sometimes and sometimes just buy little bits at a time. Thanks for the comment!!
After seeing Alicia doughterys haul for her large family this is refreshing
For real! she has less in her family and shops for so much for just a weeks worth.
Exactly! She gets sooooo much junk. Love seeing more realistic hauls and people not spending an insane amount per person.
My thought exactly. It's nice to see a family that is eating healthy and save treats for special occasions.
Cart 72!!!
So true! I have 6 kids n just REALLY want to give her shopping a massive makeover. She makes NOTHING from scratch and that would save THOUSANDS each year and likely time, trash, and recycling.

Wow! Thanks for sharing. Were farmers on a animal based diet (no grains/vegetables) so we can save on food. ..
This is a great haul and video. Love all the delicious and nutritious options!
I absolutely love how healthy you try to keep your family's diet. And I like that you show it's not perfect and say there's room for improvement. That shows you're always willing to learn and make changes when you find better alternatives.
If you want a sweetener that does not raise the body's insulin, try allulose or stevia. Honey and fructose raise the body's insulin higher than you might want.
Thank you for your comment that makes a very good point I will take it into consideration for sure
Stevia is not such a great alternative . I suggest reading up about the toxins . I was surprised.😊

Costco has organic tomato sauce, paste, and diced tomatoes; and organic ice cream cones from Trader Joe’s

Did you miss the part about ice cream and how she makes the stuff from scratch? Like cakes, cookies, ice cream, etc.
Thank you for sharing. I would love to see a video on how you store all your food, like the bananas and milk without going bad. Also,what are some of your family’s recipes?
Would you post your reciepts or an itemized list of what and how much of each food you got?
Whew 😮💨 and I thought it was a lot of work shopping for our family of 9, lol.. I mean it IS a lot, but this is humongous!!😂😅
I would definitely love to see a meal planning video!
Yes!!

I enjoy Corelle plates too, but I get them used at local secondhand stores for about 1$/ plate. Although, they do not match ;)
Beautiful family ❤ what church do you attend?
You should try Aldi grocery store too. Great organic food and the prices aren't bad...
I will check it out. Thank you!
Dont worry what people think.you buy what you can.they dont pay for your food.i love to watch hauls.
Did you see how the fridge thing was weighted down to the max from all that milk!? The homemade ice cream sounds so good

Have you used Azure Standard for organic foods ?
No, I have not someone else commented on that as well. I will certainly look into it. I had never heard of it till now.
You need to look to see if you have Azure Standard better prices most everything you have
I have never heard of them before. I will look into it. Thanks for the comment!

Mashallah mashallah mashallah ❤❤❤❤❤
Yes don't get me wrong everything goes up every time u go to the store but organic stuff usually is higher than regular stuff
Hi, I'm Priscilla, and I am a daughter of a family of 10 and I love how you get your kids healthy stuff, but it wouldn't hurt for once in awhile for them to eat some sugar. God bless you, have a nice day 👋
Jeepers, then cleaning products and toiletries on top. Fair play that you guys can afford this. It’s incredible but my goodness, you are a busy bee 🩷🩷
Hello! Your videos are such fun to watch. I expected the mass amount of milk, but it didn't look like as much toilet paper I thought there would be. Thank you for sharing!
Wow! Do you use any of that for your daycare business, or is this just the food for your family?
❤ from Iowa
What size ice cream machine do you have? Ours goes in in 2 days … so delish
It can do about 4 gallons
Your Costco doesn't have the organic tomato products in the can?
they do have some sauces that are organic but my kids aunt fans of the taste and don't eat it very well. I'm hoping to just figure out a good recipe and bottle my own eventually.

Nothing but the best of food in that order wow i wish .
How do you substitute honey for sugar?
For most foods its one for one

Wow thats a lot 😮
Considering how many tummies your filling I don't think it's that much per head plus clean food is much more expensive well done
Where do you get your milk?
A lot of people are against this, but I actually get it from a local farm. I get raw milk. However, I do have to have pasteurized milk for my daycare.
@@RealMomRealSolutions I hope to get raw milk sometime too. That’s awesome you can get 14 a week. I don’t have any friends getting raw milk that get that many!!

The amount of times you said organic! 🤣
I know lol very repetitive and probably annoying. Sorry about that.
What kind of ice cream machine do you have?
I need to know how to make home made ice cream with regular milk please!
Imagine how much savings each year if you stopped observing the Roman days? 😊
Your house well never run out of foods dam😊
You are inspiring
How long does this last?
About a month
I go grocery shopping twice a month and each time It comes out between $200 to $240
We buy a half cow, you can also get a whole one. The meat is much much better and you can really see and taste the difference
Where do you buy the honey from
I don’t know where you’re located the store that I buy it from is called Johns marketplace but it’s only here in Utah and they only have one location. However, I have gotten it from local bee farmers as well and you may be able to find someone like that in your area by searching for them
$300 a month for milk 😮 where do you work?
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Please make a vlog like this again!!
Are u a nurse where do u work outside of the home ? Just curious
Consider buying tomato sauce only in glass Jars. Because if tomato's acidity, the aluminum cans leech toxic aluminum into your food.
No added sugar because fruit itself has sugar. It's just crazy how some kids snack is like 10g plus added sugars.
About 3500 .
Thats pretty good compared to the dougherty dozen who spends at 5000 a month n mostly junk food.
How often do they buy this amount of food??
Every month
are these all your bio kids
❤
