I've been watching you for awhile and I just have to say good for you! I am so happy that you got to live off grid, travel and do all the things. At the end of the day, we need peace and find our joy. As long as you are not killing anyone or doing anything illegal, then you do what feels right in your soul!
Tammy your house is so beautiful! Tammy great job in teaching your children and keeping house up! You are definitely wonder woman! Your amazing beautiful lady!
10:11am you are my hero you're super woman. I'm older and have several medical issues and I can barely walk now. I wish I could work like you do. Try the pretzel jello this summer with strawberry jello and strawberries. That's how we make it in the south. I've watched you for years and I just love you, Chris and your family. Blessings to you all
Yes it’s nice. Easier. The girls even having their own apartment and space and everything they wanted I got them. They don’t talk to me. 🤷🏼♀️ I assume good. they’re adult now.
@@jaikryz it’s hard. A feeling I didn’t wanna experience. But they’re safe and loved so in the end that’s really all that matters. Then being pist at me is by far not the worst. Just sucks ❤️❤️
You have no idea how happy I am that you guys are back in a house, that homesteading was hard on me lol at least you can say you tried, congrats on the pregnancy
That homesteading was so hard frustrating at times and made us broke as a joke. For being hobos we just can’t afford that lifestyle at this point in life or ever . I won’t be trying that again. 🤭
I know I have said harsh words. I am so happy to see you in a home. It is very nice. I am sure you have a sense of pride when you look around and see cleanly, having a shower, doing laundry. It is hard to keep up with a family of your size plus being pregnant. I wish you the best. Perhaps you can send the older kids to school. Home schooling does work, but the older they get, the harder it is for anyone to teach them what is beyond our limits. Remember, you don’t have to show everything on your channel. If you are having a bad day, it is sometimes better to keep it to yourself. Good luck. I wish the best for your family.
Well thank you for being kind this time ❤️ cause yes you been rather mean. The plan is to get the older boys into this online Utah program we’ve had in the past. It’s online live teacher different classes. They have a bell schedule with their lives and even one on one tutoring. It’s amazing and we didn’t get a spot this year which was my fault missing the deadline. With schooling it’s hard because they’re always sick they miss so much school and that puts them sooooo behind. The rate of how fast kids are taught at school is crazy and when you miss a lot of school it’s like you haven’t even been. 😵💫
@Hettie If you went to school, but can't teach your own children what you learned, then the problem is not homeschooling... Schools are AWFUL now. I know more moms unschooling now than ever. Public education is LAUGHABLE these days.
@@le4905 schools are not like they use to be for sure. Not at all: it’s all a fast pace learn as much as you can and be tested. It’s a lot of pressure. A lot more kids now days are on anti anxiety and depression meds for this reason. The amount of stress giving to children is heart breaking. The program I love to use with actual teachers is so amazing. It’s not like that. There was a new school built here in Provo Utah elementary school and the dang thing looks like a prison. I truly wish our children could be taught by teacher we had as children. Homeschooling is hard. Schools are harder it takes the child’s child hood. I don’t mind the schools here in Utah to a point. The special Ed team at the schools are amazing. The special Ed team on the online program ….. I don’t think is an actual special Ed team but just teachers trying. When freya is more verbal and completely free of accidents there are programs she can attend that will teach her life skills away from her family and I which I think is so important for not only her, but for me as her primary care taker as I won’t be here for ever to care for her. ❤️❤️
We need to teach them how to live in today’s society with kindness and dignity. They need interaction with other kids besides siblings. Boys Scouts? Brownies or Girl Scouts? Joining other families that homeschool and getting together.
@ why do you think we are always sick 🤭 because we stay home with each other all day. On another note. I hang out with no one nor talk to anyone I went to school with. That’s most definitely not important. Living a happy fulfilling life on the right path with Heavenly Father. Everyone has their own ways to see life. Some chose to sit inside and do the same things day by day till they die. Others wonder off more than others. Not everyone needs a public school system to have friends. Schools are to learn. Not to have fun the 15 minutes each day to mingle. You have friends out side of school.
I hope y'all feel better soon ! Sicknesses will dye down when warmer weather hits ! I cant wait until spring & summer , its been to dang cold lol !! Keep on keeping on lady you are doing great ! And I hope you have time to relax sometime during your daily duties !! The kids look as they are adapting very well to the new home style !! 👏👏👏🇺🇸
From a momma of 13 all home, oldest is 19. I say if you don’t juice you should definitely consider it. It’s been a game changer in my home we haven’t had one sick person in 2 years. I give the kids a shot of what ever veggies I have on hand usually ; garlic, ginger, celery, carrots, and beets is my fall back drink they take a shot every morning with there vitamin C. The littles will only drink it if they see the teens drink it lol.
@@leeandd2278 yes we have a juicer to pick up from the mail box out where we use to live. I will try this. Thank you. 😊 my older kids don’t bring things home it’s the little girls 1-6 year olds mainly the 2 and 4 year old that’s constantly picking up a bug.
Feel for you!😢 I'm from a large family , when 1 gets sick, it just passes to everyone! If possible, I always wash the dishes with a little bleach in it to kill.germs. Love to all ,hope all get well!
You know we are called horrible but we are human. And sometimes kids are very testing to our mental state lol I’ll pray for you . You still have 2 -4 year old stage. 🤭
A few more tips, you can also put the Vicks rub on the bottom of the kids feet once they are asleep and put socks on them. This will help draw out the congestion. Also, you can put some of the Vicks in a candle warmer and use a scentless tea candle and put it up high where they cannot reach it in their bedroom when they are asleep.
I know a lot of people are not comfy in masks but when we had no choice but to wear them, we literally never got sick. I always wear mine in large group type settings because people in general are germy out in public. I don't make the kids wear them but if we're in a large people'y setting, like grocery store, mall, Dr's office, etc.. we all do.. and man does it make a difference. As well as an higher water intake, multi vitamins, good sleep and I make sure they wash their hands a lot. ❤❤❤
@@emilyjean222 yes but that also lowers our immune system. We need to get these bugs to build a strong immune system 😵💫😵💫 but I agree. When those dumb masks were mandated we didn’t get sick as well. Now we get slammed. Never again will i shield the kid’s immune system 😥
Glad to see you guys doing well (despite the sick kids!) We are always getting letters from the school about our kids absences. They want less than 9 a year, thats like two illnesses. I wish. I'm sure the kids with perfect attendance are the ones who are getting our kids sick!
Before I had my back surgery a few years ago I made up easy to prepare meals to have while recovering. I put Ramin noodles, with the poison packet in jars. To make it more healthy I added freeze dried vegetables. I used Augason Farms mixed vegetables. They call it Vegetable stew. Tasted good and helped with the nutrition value 😉 of the Ramin. Except for the peas and corn the veggies were chopped very small so it blended right in, not really noticable, for the picky kids. I add it to a lot of things.
@@kathym2501 I think it’s the ramen noodles that are the worst in the bundle lol 🤭 but I still eat them. I figure could be worse right. But that is a great idea to meal prep a healthier meal for sure ❤️❤️
I think it's pretty typical for large families to be sick a lot. I say that cause when I had a bunch at home, always sick and passing around germs. My homeschooled Mom friends always had sick kids too. Now I only have one at home, we're rarely sick. I remember those days so well though,exhausting. Hope you have some sick free days soon. ❤
It’s wild. Exhausting. Chris looks at me when we are just laid out and beat tiered and says “ I still wouldn’t change a thing with our big family “ now me on the other hand I just cry inside.
I Don’t add the cold water to the jello for that pretzel salad…. I Just use what u need to boil the jello with no extra ☺️It makes it chill must faster & not as slimy. It’ll come out so u can cut it & it’ll stay together perfectly like a cake when u cut it 👍🏼. I always use strawberries in mine but I’ll def have to try the raspberries!!! 💜 kiddos r getting so big! ☺️
@@dumpsterdivingmommaof2 ohhhh this I’m gonna try: I added wayyyyyyy to much sugar it was yuck . Next time I need to cut the sugar cause ewe. It must been cause I lost all my jello 🤭
Just wanted to say you are doing a GREAT job Tammy! Your kids are happy and loved and you can see they love each other and get proud of each other with the school work too. You work so hard for your family and have so much love. I adore big families and always wanted one for myself but it didn’t really work out that for me, it wasn’t God’s will I suppose! since I’m 41 and pregnant now, I don’t foresee ANOTHER after this one. (Then again, I didn’t think this one would happen either 🤷🏼♀️ ). I’m so happy with the 2 girls I have and the one on the way though. ❤ I just found out this week that I am having another girl! I guess I’m meant to be a girl mom and I don’t mind it one bit! I would have been happy either way. Thank you for sharing parts of your day with us! ❤
Dude I have no dish washer in my single wide and I’m gonna go nuts 😅 I cook 3 meals a day for my family and they don’t like doing dishes. My youngest boy like to rinse and dry but my oldest is not good at the washing.
Hey friend! Try incorporating Manuka Honey into your daily regimen for your family. My whole household takes a half of a teaspoon daily. Make sure to get Manuka Honey with a high MGO. It is antibacterial with so many health benefits. ❤️
Definitely do it!!!! It will a great addition to your daily regimen. My daughter is in public school so we do a half of a teaspoon of Manuka & Smarty Pants gummies daily!
Start running humidifiers through the house. Daily give real honey, get garlic in their meals, lemon in their water, have them sip on bone broth either chicken broth or beef broth, limit sugar and processed foods and no matter what have them stay at home and send hubby with a list to the store or have groceries delivered.
Great tips!! Vitamin C, zinc, and D daily to boost the immune system too! It’s been a game changer but a bit expensive for a large family- worth its weight in cold medicine.
@@ClutteredmotherI think it’s a Van Gogh painting on them coasters lol but you probably know that, I’m not 100% though, I use them at home, I’ve slate ones, cat ones and Greek scene ones, some secondhand
I try. It’s hard. Definitely have learned from my oldest group of kids. Tried my best with them and 2 won’t even talk to me. 😥❤️ but with that said genetics is a huge game player because their father is not so kind to his own mother. 🤷🏼♀️
Hope you guys start feeling better 🙏 my youngest started pre-k the end of October and from then until Christmas she has brought home FIVE different bugs😢 the last cold flu bug she brought home ended up turning into pneumonia for my whole family for Christmas. Thankfully all of us were put on antibiotics and breathing treatments just in time to keep us out of the hospital 🙌 Has Freya been diagnosed with ASD? Watching her spinning with her toy reminded me of my little who has ASD❤
Oh the pre k germs . 🦠 yup it’s the babies that keep getting us sick. Olive piper and a Arabella are always getting us sick. Freya no. She hasn’t. She’s always spun. She does it way less than she has in her younger years. :)
If possible, get some Blessed by Elderberries from TT or I guess anywhere and take a shot of it 2× a day. I have Lupus and it helps my immune system. Also local honey as soon as weather changes give a teaspoon a day, helps with allergies. Stay blessed beautiful people.
Be careful immune enhancers cause and promote lupus flares. I’m treated by a world reknown Dr and it’s in their pamphlets at each appt. I had a flare last year I’m still not recovered from and barely survived. This disease can be a killer so please be careful
Love that you are back,just a hint if you could try putting the Vickie on the bottom of their feet when they go to bed and socks. I always felt that work when my kids were little.
When kids are sick food in is good and fluids are fluids. There will be other times for "healthy " right. We learned thst lesson when our granddaughter went through cancer twice between the ages of 2 and 7. She is now 13 and a healthy horse riding competitivly and basketball player. They all will thrive if loved always
This is the Tammy we know! Homesteading is hard and you tried your best. Most would have failed in months be proud!! 2025 is looking up for the family, blessings always.
@@lauraC1082 ❤️ homesteading is easy and when I buy I pray for a older farm home. It’s that off grid life. That is hard right there. I’m working on myself. I flipped a switch and broke when one of my girls moved out and started talking bad about me and Chris. Completely broke my heart. It hurts. I’m broken. I kinda lost it for a few years but that break in nature has helped me heal and has shown me the kids I have now need me. It may sound silly and many don’t understand. I’ve devoted my life to being a mom. I love being a mom. And those words completely broke me. It’s been hard. So hard. I’ll never be the same as it was when I had my family all together but it’s getting better. My husband and kids are the most amazing people ever. Learning to live broken has been a roller coaster and I hope one day all my kids realize i do my best and I love them more than life ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thanks for sticking around . The joys of parenting . 😵💫
Yup but when I haven’t got enough plates for the next meal or silver wear I have to hand wash after breakfast and lunch or I’m running it 3x a day. Eventually I’ll add more to the dish pile
Hi Tammy. I’m glad you and your family are back in a home. Are you leasing the house or renting? Did it come furnished? I’m so glad the kids are happy. I will always watch your channel. I have to watch Freya grow up. ♥️🙏
It normally is. Idk if it’s this virus but all our food tastes like rotten. And I spelt like allllll the jello out 🤭🤭🤭 if you try id cut the sugar to half a cup per batch. Cause it was way to sweet this time round
First time in your channel. You’re so real about everything. We need more of that in this world. Also, how old are your kids? I have five and no kidding I find having five easier than having just one or two. 😅
lol yes I’m re adapting to the full oven and fridge lol sad to say but using the bbq the last 3 years has been interesting. Very happy to have an oven.
@@pammckinney1752 we take them. Mainly for the maybe they’ll help. But over counter vitamins are mainly sugars and stuff you’ll pee out. We try and get our vits like iron from meats and vit c from fresh oranges: from the source ❤️ germs vitamins don’t kill. Our immune system will kill them but we need an immune system in order to rid these viruses. Toddler and preschoolers get hit hard and typically bring these home and have a harder time with them as us older ones fight them off easier as our body has an immune response. These things just happen and they suck.
@@justmedrugfree2265 no. Lol it’s really not that hard to budget and not keep up with the jones. We budget and have no debt . Buy alot of 2nd hand as well. I work from home and the husband works. Jobs :-)
They honestly don’t care where they are. As long as they’re together. These kids are all family . They’re super close and could live anywhere happy. 😊 I’m so blessed

Hope you guys start feeling better 🙏 my youngest started pre-k the end of October and from then until Christmas she has brought home FIVE different bugs😢 the last cold flu bug she brought home ended up turning into pneumonia for my whole family for Christmas. Thankfully all of us were put on antibiotics and breathing treatments just in time to keep us out of the hospital 🙌 Has Freya been diagnosed with ASD? Watching her spinning with her toy reminded me of my little who has ASD❤
Oh the pre k germs . 🦠 yup it’s the babies that keep getting us sick. Olive piper and a Arabella are always getting us sick. Freya no. She hasn’t. She’s always spun. She does it way less than she has in her younger years. :)
I make that ‘salad’ all of the time. It’s our fave! We sometimes use raspberry jello/raspberries instead of strawberries
If possible, get some Blessed by Elderberries from TT or I guess anywhere and take a shot of it 2× a day. I have Lupus and it helps my immune system. Also local honey as soon as weather changes give a teaspoon a day, helps with allergies. Stay blessed beautiful people.
Be careful immune enhancers cause and promote lupus flares. I’m treated by a world reknown Dr and it’s in their pamphlets at each appt. I had a flare last year I’m still not recovered from and barely survived. This disease can be a killer so please be careful
Great vlog ❤❤
Love that you are back,just a hint if you could try putting the Vickie on the bottom of their feet when they go to bed and socks. I always felt that work when my kids were little.
When kids are sick food in is good and fluids are fluids. There will be other times for "healthy " right. We learned thst lesson when our granddaughter went through cancer twice between the ages of 2 and 7. She is now 13 and a healthy horse riding competitivly and basketball player. They all will thrive if loved always
My Step Mom makes the Jell-O with strawberries, instead of raspberries. I'm going to have to try it with the raspberries
36:39 we use strawberries in Iowa for the pretzel bake
Ohhh fresh? I think I’ve done strawberry jello years ago and can hardly remember yesterday lok
@@Clutteredmother I do it just like you did with the raspberries. Just use strawberry jello and frozen strawberries
This is the Tammy we know! Homesteading is hard and you tried your best. Most would have failed in months be proud!! 2025 is looking up for the family, blessings always.
@@lauraC1082 ❤️ homesteading is easy and when I buy I pray for a older farm home. It’s that off grid life. That is hard right there. I’m working on myself. I flipped a switch and broke when one of my girls moved out and started talking bad about me and Chris. Completely broke my heart. It hurts. I’m broken. I kinda lost it for a few years but that break in nature has helped me heal and has shown me the kids I have now need me. It may sound silly and many don’t understand. I’ve devoted my life to being a mom. I love being a mom. And those words completely broke me. It’s been hard. So hard. I’ll never be the same as it was when I had my family all together but it’s getting better. My husband and kids are the most amazing people ever. Learning to live broken has been a roller coaster and I hope one day all my kids realize i do my best and I love them more than life ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ thanks for sticking around . The joys of parenting . 😵💫
We make that recipe with strawberries but crush the pretzels . Strawberry pretzel salad is very popular around here.
You are such a wonderful mother Tammy❤
I try. I do my best. We all should ❤️❤️
If you use the dish washer it helps cut down on kids sicknesses
Yup but when I haven’t got enough plates for the next meal or silver wear I have to hand wash after breakfast and lunch or I’m running it 3x a day. Eventually I’ll add more to the dish pile
As a Mennonite, we use strawberries. We call it Mennonite strawberry pretzel salad. I would like to try with raspberries.
Make some organic Elderberry syrup better than store bought along with bone broth lemon, honey, garlic, and ginger. Blessings
Yes we have honey and need to get some fresh bones to do up bone broth. ❤️❤️
Do you have a child safe recipe you use or have used?? I don’t do over counter cough meds. I don’t trust them. ❤️
Hi Tammy. I’m glad you and your family are back in a home. Are you leasing the house or renting? Did it come furnished? I’m so glad the kids are happy. I will always watch your channel. I have to watch Freya grow up. ♥️🙏
That jello dessert looks delicious 😋
It normally is. Idk if it’s this virus but all our food tastes like rotten. And I spelt like allllll the jello out 🤭🤭🤭 if you try id cut the sugar to half a cup per batch. Cause it was way to sweet this time round
Wow did this place come furnished?
First time in your channel. You’re so real about everything. We need more of that in this world. Also, how old are your kids? I have five and no kidding I find having five easier than having just one or two. 😅
Love you sharing part of your day with us. I’m exhausted just watching you. Where is Ashley? I miss you giving updates on her. Hope she is well.
My older 2 girls don’t talk to me. ❤️
@
I am so sorry to hear that. Keep up the great work you are doing with your other children. You are the energizer bunny of mothers. 😊
@ thank you ❤️ we learn and we try. All us woman can do. It’s up to the others to care enough. ❤️❤️
Anytime I think it may overflow- I put it on a cookie sheet
lol yes I’m re adapting to the full oven and fridge lol sad to say but using the bbq the last 3 years has been interesting. Very happy to have an oven.
💚💚💚💚
Not canisters, coasters.
@@pammckinney1752 did I say canisters lol dangit. I also called the raspberry’s strawberry’s . 😵💫 when my brain won’t slow down
When is this baby due?
Thanks for sharing your day you and Chris are great parents ❤
I love those coasters ~ Hope your kids feel better soon !
Thank you ❤️
Maybe a vitamin for kids they need something if they are sick all the time
Girl if it was that easy I’d have a room filled with vitamins. 🤭
Vitamins do help, try them.
@@pammckinney1752 we take them. Mainly for the maybe they’ll help. But over counter vitamins are mainly sugars and stuff you’ll pee out. We try and get our vits like iron from meats and vit c from fresh oranges: from the source ❤️ germs vitamins don’t kill. Our immune system will kill them but we need an immune system in order to rid these viruses. Toddler and preschoolers get hit hard and typically bring these home and have a harder time with them as us older ones fight them off easier as our body has an immune response. These things just happen and they suck.
U are zoo gifted to be a stay at home mom
Do the kids have any immune system and especially when you have that many children you're going to just spread it now what number babies coming along
Baby 14. And they should have an immune system of gold soon. Shesh. I say my house is a Petri dish. We can take a virus and mutate it a few times
You guys are such good parents. Keep loving and living your lives. Hello from Arkansas, USA.
Why don't you see Gage wants to go to high school the Mills Family one of the older boys went to high school it was easier for him
Weird I thought I responded to this. He has the choice. All teens had the choice :)
i really need to know how you ever can afford any food clothing a house and on and on with 14 kids, are you so rich
@@justmedrugfree2265 no. Lol it’s really not that hard to budget and not keep up with the jones. We budget and have no debt . Buy alot of 2nd hand as well. I work from home and the husband works. Jobs :-)

I bet the kids love to be in a house.
They honestly don’t care where they are. As long as they’re together. These kids are all family . They’re super close and could live anywhere happy. 😊 I’m so blessed
Have you ever tried making chicken bone broth. The stuff in the store in not good. Wishing for your kids get well.❤❤
