Getting everything you need to feed your beautiful family is quite the task in NY. Making a menu and shopping off a list is so smart. All those healthy children are worth it.

Your daughter is so good with neta Shes so sweet and i love your shopping videos The kids are great love their excitement when they go shopping with mom and dad Your just a wonderful family,i enjoy watching them Im waiting to hear Elijah interview prayers Mom and dad s kisses are very nice 😊 God bless ❤

Now that you guys are renting the downstairs as well it might be a beneficial move for Mark to go to Costco on his own one day and just stock up on bulk items like the paper towels, toilet paper and paper plates so it's not something you have to buy for quite a while.

Yogurt in Spanish is Yogur. The T is dropped roll your tongue with the r ! Ole! 😂😂😂❤❤ 🙏🏻 for Elijah’s audition!

​@@jacquethirlkel3001I think saying you like Elijah for "stuffing his teen boy mouth with his supper" his unnecessary and quite nasty. You said so many nice things about the other kids so it's a strange thing to be nasty. You could of said you like how he enjoys eating different meals.

All your children are such nice kids, but melody, is a heart stealer. She's such a sweet little girl.

Elijah best of luck!! You will do well☘️ I am glad that’s over for you!

Good afternoon and happy Thursday great groceries haul

I think a day in the life for your family would be interesting. Like: 1)what chores everyone does, 2) what the children play through the day and who they prefer to play with. 3) How do the children do their education. 4) How are you incorporating the new basement area into your routine. Also, maybe too personal but it would be interesting to know what monthly living expenses your large family has and how you budget that….including the price of music lessons/education. You and Mark have beautiful children and are so calm with them. Great parenting!

You worded this really nicely. I just read a comment that basically said that their shopping videos are the same and that they want different content but didn't suggest any ideas. I shouldn't be shocked since it's youtube. These days people will point out negatives but don't praise the positives so that is my focus this year so thank you for your kind and gentle way of offering some good ideas to Amber. 😊

Sending all the positive thoughts in the world for excellent news about Elijah’s audition!!

I bought a huge bag of raw cashews from Costco - and tossed them in some curry powder salt and pepper and a bit of maple sugar (can use just a bit of brown sugar) - slow baked them in the oven - and oh my goodness they are so good. So much cheaper too.

Absolutely remember those sour cream and cheddar ruffles coming out!!!

Ohh I wanted to add that I’m addicted to the grass fed butter from Costco, because of you guys!

I pray that you have a great week. Plus for Elijah to get into the Juilliard program, if it’s God’s will for him. I have a sneaky feeling that he WILL get in.

Nice haul❤.

Pasta sauce is an excellent substitute for pizza sauce. As a matter of fact I don't buy pizza sauce anymore as I always have some type of pasta sauce on hand.

Love all your grocery hauls. Look forward to it every week. The kids are getting so big.

I heard the NY national guard got deployed to the NY subways, have you guys noticed? And do you feel it was warranted? I mean, from what I've heard NYC is a total dumspter fire so based on those impressions it would be a hard yes.

I recommend sparking water instead of soda for the kid. They taste just as good without the added sugar

@KentuckyNaNasHeart indeed they eat mostly healthy and I will not take that away from them. I understand that a treat is absolutely necessary as part of a well-balanced lifestyle but from what I see they get lots of sweets and treats from gummy bears to cookies and chips etc. The problem with soft drinks regular or Diet is that they are filled with chemical engineered ingredients mind you, that unfortunately can be said for all processed foods. There's absolutely zero nutrition and zero benefit to these soft drinks. I will ask anybody the following question. What a parent take a water glass and fill it with 6 teaspoons of sugar and ask the child to drink that? The answer is always no and yet they will turn around and do exactly that when they give them a soft drink. Let's not even mention the damage it does to teeth so unfortunately I will never stand by the soft drink consumption regardless of how little it is.

I typed “ extra”. Auto correct did its thing wrong. LOL.

My Dad used MCT oil when he was losing weight and no tolerating other fats due to gut issues. We also used MCT back in the day for premie babies who were struggling with weight gain. Generally easier on the gut. It was really expensive when my Dad used it in the 70's. My Mom attempted to cook with it! It really foams up when heating. Some fun times!!

I went to Trader Joe’s and spent way too much but I had to get all the nuts and protein granola and treats for my kids. Their lemon cookies are amazing.

I use spaghetti sauce for pizza and add some Italian spice.

I was wondering if you would get more milk as I noticed the fridge downstairs when you did the tour. It's frustrating when you have to pick through the fruit and vegetables. I always look at what I get closely. The supermarket I go to here in New Zealand you can buy some fruit unpackaged which makes it easier.

I know you were looking for a ham for Easter and they have hams at Aldi. I think you said there was one close to Costco. Might be more affordable than wegmans. I live in Columbus Ohio and we have really nice aldi.

How do you with running out of stuff. Do you have a littke pick up along the way or are you able to make do. Im getting better but still run short most fortnights

These children ❤️❤️! They are so happy and loved and well behaved! I just found your KZread channel and thank you!

Is there an Asian food store near you ? Maybe lots of stuff you buy cheaper especially sauces and herbs etc. be so fun for kids especially the Asian treats xx

Isn't the mozzarella and cottage cheese so much cheaper at Costco (it is here in Toronto)

Have y’all thought about trying to make some veggie chips like out of carrots, white potatoes, sweet potatoes, radishes, zucchini, all you do is you cut them very very thin put salt pepper garlic on it if you want put it in the oven and keep turning them over every 15 minutes until their is crispy as if you want them to I’ve seen it on KZread and Instagram and I think I’m gonna try it. yes isn’t that sad we live in America supposedly the richest country in the world yet we have the worst ingredients in our food. A lot of ingredients that are not food. Other countries are not allowed to have in their country. They ban it they don’t want nothing to do with our food even if it’s free, they don’t want our food that is how bad are food is!😢 mark is a great shopper. He knows how to look for produce. Make sure you keep an eye on your fridge downstairs. Hasn’t wanted to make sure that things are cold daily so you don’t lose your stuff. The first collagen that you said you normally use is the healthiest. Do you need to check the ingredients if it has Kerrigan in it or sorbitol, fake sugars, fillers natural flavors dies. It is not the best one to get even if it’s on sale. Coconut oil is actually better than MCT oil when you break it all down comparing everything and it’s the least expensive. I have a suggestion you might want to do some research on some natural hair products for your daughters as far as soap, shampoos and conditioners that do not have chemicals in it there’s a lot of stuff they’re sticking in our personal care products to make us sick! You have such a beautiful family!❤ I use coconut oil for a moisturizer for my face, my neck, my arms, and my legs, my feet and I use it for my teeth as well

I was holding my breath watching all those little hands grabbing the pickle jar, I was sure it was going to crash, then suddenly Marks hand was there to save the pickles 🥒🤣. Neta is so cute, I believe she likes patty cakes and I know for sure that she loves to hear Naomi singing to her. I loved Melody’s “ Peas and carrots “ story, so cute. ❤️✌🏻

I so enjoy your videos what can I make a suggestion I know the inspired groceries by the week and stuff have you ever thought of buying an upright chest to put between the two back doors where you can do two weeks at a time or still go shopping but I figured with that big of a family that you had and upright chest freezer would be really awesome in between the two back but it's just a suggestion enjoy you guys I'll keep watching
