- Meal plan below ⬇️ :
Mama & Little Neta had a bad cold so daddy was a hero and did the shopping this week. He actually does an amazing job all on his own. Sometimes people ask why I go shopping if Marc is so good at it. I think it's probably because its's fun! Not fun like a merry go round, but fun more like a crossword puzzle. The challenge of finding the right items, seeing what's in stock, what's out of stock. It also inspires me so the next week when I make a list I see the other options & how much they cost. For the kids it's one of their favorite days of the week. The little ones come with us and the older ones usually go busking on Tuesday evening (the night we shop.) Busking helps keep the wheels on with all of the music expenses and especially with audition season which requires extra lessons, recordings, and payments to accompanists, I'm really grateful for the kids' efforts along side Marc and I to keep things afloat in this very challenging economy!

Marc handled Enoch's "running away" so well. Enoch is so sensitive, and Marc was so sensitive in his reprimanding. Great parenting!❤
Love how gentle Marc was with Enoch. Always in love and not anger. I love it
Bless Enoch he thought he had seen dad but thankfully dad found him, those are the most scariest moments, dad did a lovely talk to him in such a calming voice that Enoch listened, Moses is so adorable he’s a little chatterbox now so sweet, hope you and Netta are feeling a little better soon, love to you all ❤
Marc is fun to watch 🙂 He is so meticulous with everything and so patient with his helpers!! How sweet that he missed you Amber ❤ I hope you and Neta are on the mend🙏
❤️🙏
Sending lots of love to Amber and Netta and trusting you'll feel better soon. There is nothing better than hearing Enoch and Mo say they are so happy and seeing their sweet smiling faces. Made my day. Nice filming, Anna.
Great job, Mark! You had some wonderful helpers, too!! I always look forward to your videos. Feel better, Amber! 😊
I love how Mark explained to Enoch how it was for his safety and he was scared for him. He’s so calm and patient. ❤
Marc is a sweetie!
Great going, Marc...so sweet to hear how you miss Amber on your weekly "date". Hope those ill recover soon. God bless you, family ❤
Great job as always Mark. You are such a great husband and father.
Poor little Enoch, he looked rather scared to me, I was a wreck just being out with my two little granddaughters, trying to keep an eye on them, you guys are doing great watching so many kids at once, Mark you explained the reason to stay close by to Enoch so nicely and you’re also a great shopper! Moses is the cutest little guy🥰 he makes me smile. Amber and Neta get well soon. ❤️✌🏻
I have a son and daughter. They both hung on me when we shopped. Enoch is such a sweetheart. I know he realized not to wander off after Marc explained sweetly how serious it was. There are some awful people out there unfortunately. My hubby got a fraud email this week. He came straight to me. I knew it was a scam. I reported it and forwarded the email to the fraud dept. My hubby said I am a little detective 🥸
Aw Marc has to be the greatest guy. Love that you’re good best friend after 11 kids and I’m sure many years (don’t know how many)
Love your family Amber I hope you and Netta feel better soon I'm praying for you🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤
Because new York has so many people I always worry about kids safety because here in California at Walmart they tried to take 2 small children out of the store thank God they caught them running with them so scary there fast at taking them always they have a car near by, you were calm at telling your son I hope he realizes how scary it was for you, mark your always an excellent shopper especially with that many kids to keep track of too 😉 😊❤😊😊😊😊😊Chloe and Anna are such great helpers 😊awww mark your such a wonderful husband missing your wife shopping and your a great father too
Sweet Enoch - poor little guy - Daddy handled that super well
Amber, sorry to hear your not feeling well. Get well soon!❤
Hope you feel better soon Amber , you have a brilliant husband x ❤️
❤️🙏
Get better Amber and Netta
Surely at least one of the older kids could help out dad? Just a thought. I do actually like I said love your family. 🙏😍
Mark, did a great job shopping and watching the children I love seeing your Family.
.
❤️🙏
Great video mark. If you cook the corn beef in the instant pot it turns out great. We put a mustard and brown sugar glaze on ours. I hope you feel better soon.
Marc and Mo make a good team I love how he is so thoughtful he so good with Mo he is such a good shopper and he picks them out with out touching to many to get the best get well Amber and neta love u heaps mo
He is always respectful in choosing the fruit and vegetables in terms of touching it all. It's sad that we have to be careful of what we get to avoid rotten produce. It's the same here in New Zealand, but most of the time we can pick out our own without buying it in a bag where it's hard to see all of it.
I have really been enjoying your shopping hauls. That was sweet that Mark missed his wife. ❤🎉
Enoch is so sweet. I am glad to see the shelves are well stocked. The depletion is from the shoppers that day. I hope you, Marc, and Netta are feeling better.
Aww Mo is so cuutttee!
Mo is coming into his own! We all grow at and talk at our pace. Slow-going then boom, sudden maturity spurt!
Moe is talking so much this week!! Adorable!!!
He is adorable!!
It quite often happens when a new baby blesses a family. The next in age all of a sudden grows quickly in behaviour and ability. Mo is such a cute little boy and is always so helpful.
And so very sweet that Mark misses his wife!
Glad you are protecting your children. ❤
Aww this episode was 😢so sweet and special,Marc missed his wife his best friend, such a cute couple.❤❤❤, Prayers you all get to feeling better, much love to you all🙏💕🙏
Good job Dad explain to Enoch it was firm enough and sweet enough. Great job all working together on the groceries. You’re right. Moe in a sweater vest is killing me. Praying for all to get better. ❤😊 Diane from Rhode Island ❤😊
❤️🙏
your a great dad...mark...
It's always great to see a loving and supportive dad/husband ❤
I'm sorry you and Neta are not feeling well! Hopefully you start feeling better soon. Marc is right about the tuna ... it's the albacore tuna that has the most mercury in it. Loved Marc's confessional about you ... that was so sweet! Hope you feel better! 🙏❤
❤️🙏
Did Dad call Chloe, Melody? All of your children are delightful…so lovely. Enoch is such an emotional little guy….Bless him
Oh Mark is so Sweet that’s really true love when he misses you on a grocery run .. gotta love em love u friends
I am a Craig from Pennsylvania is it your married name.
@@barbaracraig7684 yes
I always worry about someone taking my kids. We shop a lot as a family, and you would think with 13 of us, it would be less stressful, but it's not. I hope you and little Netta are feeling better. Okay, back to the video❤️
Aw thank you! Yes, they are super sweet about staying together, but Enoch saw someone that looked like dad and followed him. I did that too as a little kid. I was an only child. I remember it was at Sea World in San Diego. It’s so scary to be lost!
@@TheHappyCaravanI've done the same thing as a child. It’s sad we live in a world like this.
You can add raisins to cornflakes😉🇨🇦
Such a great haul. I hope you and Neta are feeling better.
I was a timid child and was normally clinging to mums skirt but even I ended up holding another mums skirt oncd. It happens and Marco handled it perfectly.
Thank you for your wholesome family videos! God bless!
Your children are so beautiful
Marc is so sweet, really missing Amber on the shopping trip. Impressive how he just steps up and takes care of the shopping on his own since Amber is sick. And he still brings the kids with him! Kudos Marc 😊
Enoch is just so special such a sweet kind gentle spirit🌷
Get well soon guys! great Haul Thankyou for sharing x x
Feel better.
Love every time you post
Great vlog this was so sweet wow you and Marc are true soulmates 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Get well soon Amber❤
Yes, those little markets have just about everything. Even small independent hardware stores and drug stores. Those gas stations and gift shops you find off I95 driving north to south have practically anything you may be looking for.
Awesome job shopping Mark !
Hats off to all that have big families I'll will never be able to do What Mark did. That must be stressful. Especially in that big city
Great lesson and explanation about staying close. What a good example of a great daddy.!
Feel better soon, Amber! Oh, I love hearing Moses' little voice expressing himself that he wants to help daddy and how happy he is! You are such a sweet family.
I hope you both feel better soon..Mark is such a sweet husband ❤❤
How sweet off marc to say he misses amber and there kiss your are a lovely couple , get better soon amber and netta ❤
So very happy to hear dad remind Enoch to stay in sight. I haven't commented on this before, but there really isn't safety in numbers when it comes to children. About a year ago, someone tried to take 3 children from a similar grocery store. The oldest ran to get help, and the other two were abducted. Happily, they were quickly located in the parking lot.
It’s dangerous to send them to the food court unsupervised.
I live in a relatively safe country and if I had kids I still wouldn't let them out of my sight. It would be so easy for someone to pick up one of the little kids from the food court and take off. When I was 13 my parents took my sister (15) and I to America. We flew into New York from LA but the flight was delayed and we arrived at midnight. We hadn't eaten in hours so we went to the hotels restaurant to get apple pie but my parents thought it was too expensive so we went in search of somewhere to eat. My dad was a seasoned traveler as his job took him overseas but my mum had only been to one other country. We struggled to keep up and Mum was concerned about the homeless people etc and yelled out to Dad about not feeling safe and we ended up back in the hotel eating apple pie. My parents took my sister and I down to the subway for a look but told us it was too dangerous to use it. This along with movies had me very concerned that Amber and Marco take the kids on the subway and often the kids are either waking quite a bit in front or behind them. Amber is always filming so isn't focusing on the kids. I thought maybe it was just my experience but seeing more people like both of you comment about the dangers I realised it's not just me. I love the family and this is the only thing I see as a bit concerning.
Good job kids are being taken more n more everyday
That’s so sweet, Mark missing Amber for the “shopping date”. Perhaps sometime you will get a real date night,all you need is a babysitter! ❤️✌🏻
Get better soon AMBER eat lots of soup and hopefully everyone stay healthy love watching your shopping 🛍 💖 💕 videos MARC is so sweet with his kids ❤️ 💖 💕 ♥️ 😊
❤️🙏☺️Thank you!
Aww the fact that Mark misses you so much is so cute 😍... he's definitely a great dad
I love how organized Mark keeps the cart 🎉🎉🎉
All you can hope for in life is that somebody misses you when you are n't there - so lovely - the real currency of a good life isn't it
Yes!☺️
Love to see your menu! It inspires me with our #oneroomschool!
When I realized Marc called Chole Melody I started laughing, in my family it’s a generational thing that parents mix up their own kids names. We joke it gives you time to run away when you’re in trouble. I’ve absolutely witnessed a couple times of relatives going through a few names and finally just going, “hey you, that one, get over here!” 😂
Mark is a lovely, patient man. Not all dads are.
Yes very grateful!
Product of nz!!! Thanks marc!!
I think we export all of our best food including the butter. Great to see another kiwi on here.😊
Just fyi, Costco offers a bag Caesar salad that's organic and really delicious, it comes with Parmesan cheese, croutons, and a seasoning packet that makes it taste so good. I think it might be a better bargain than the one in the prepared food section at costco. Love your videos!
It's probably what they use in the Deli!
❤❤❤❤ good job daddy
Thank you for the video Mark & Amber!!
❤️❤️❤️🙏
Thanks for sharing about the tuna; that’s what I buy!
My hubby and I do a 2 weeks Costco trip/date too!! And veggies, milk ECT, in the middle. But we have a family of 5. Anyway I love watching your videos for recipes and shopping so I can get new ideas.
I hope and pray that Amber and Netta feel better soon ❤
❤️🙏
Awww Moses ❤ bambino prezioso 😊
And all your other children too of course.... But Mosè ( italian for Moses)... ❤❤❤
Buongiorno famiglia 😊!
Marc does a great job, probably safer with less kids to keep up with.
Mark's kind way to correct Enoch was a wonderful lesson for all.
How you all doing it's always a pleasant to see you all I pray Ms Amber and Beautiful Netty feels better I just Love you all and the Family and Great Husband and Father you all Just make my day seeing the videos all time very Talented Kids Beautiful kids as well and well Manners and smart as well😅
Marc what a dry sense of humour, Josiah water source lol
I hope you feel better soon you and the baby . Mo is talking so well now I just love it! How does Mark know which Avocado to pick every time I buy em they go soft then bad ? Love u guys
I’m not sure! I’ll ask him his avocado trick!
Mark does a great job of solo shopping with the kids! Prayers for Mama and Neta to feel better soon!
Oh how beautiful, Mark misses you Amber, true love ❤️... I hope yourself and Miss Netta are on the mend and feeling better...
Yeah St Patrick's day , my birthday 🎂 ... missed the little ones Trader Joe's treat party.. keep safe.. 🙏
We always put a bit of yogurt in with our cereals then the original taste doesn't matter and it's kind of a bit healthier and it's yum!
Sounds good! I love yogurt and granola!
Made your sweet and sour chicken today. Loved it! I love veggies so I added onions and celery.
Moses is really growing up Hope you and baby are better! Enoch is such an intelligent child. Well they all are.
Awesome i always love these videos been cooking more after seeing these videos lots of hugs to you all sweet dearest friends The Happy Caravan 😊❤
Thank you Sarah!❤️
@TheHappyCaravan your welcome sweet dearest friends The Happy Caravan 😊❤️
All the kids are cute but Moses is something. With. Spider man and his doll. Oh well thanks for the videos
❤️❤️🙏☺️
Feel better soon Amber
Never in a million years would my husband grocery shop with multiple kids and get everything on the list for multiple days. Chloe I’m with you I don’t care for mushrooms either.
MISSED YOU! feel better
❤️🙏
I'm wondering if it wouldn't be more prudent for the three little ones to stay back when only one parent can go shopping. I think Anna and Chloe helping is more than enough.
Praying for Amber both of you takes care of the kids
❤️🙏
it's adopted in the eastern side of Canada as well (corned beef and cabbage) usually with potato and root veg added - the Akkadian version "A Jiggs Dinner". So yummy and so simple to make.
I have a five month supply of toilet paper for myself right now. I have been slowly buying all of the paper products that I can like the toilet paper, paper towels, kleenex and other household products so that I am not totally caught off guard like I was at the start of covid. I too price point toilet paper, lol. And by watching your video's I have decided to incorporate trying to buy one food magazine with lots of recipes or one cookbook each month to start trying to branch out into new foods. God Bless💞💞💞💞
I had a feeling that you were sick Amber. We your fans know your routine and when mom is sick everything changes. I know everyone normally goes to church together on Sunday. You record it then you go somewhere special and I was just wondering where in the world are y’all and what’s going on. I knew in my heart that you were sick. I am so sorry, it’s rough when the mom is sick no matter how many children you have. So thankful you have a wonderful husband as I do as well. I’ve had my husband for 61 years. We are so blessed and in love still. I was sick last week really sick throwing up something I very seldom ever do. It was awful this week. I’m suffering with my back which I do every day but it’s been worse, but I’m hanging in there. My hubby will do the same. He will cook supper tonight last night he went to a place Zesto it’s a place where you can get chicken several different ways or even a hamburger but they specialize in chicken and it is delicious. I normally eat half of mine so I save the other half for tonight. Get well soon I miss seeing you and that precious baby❤❤ so thankful for your wonderful husband Marc😂 who just takes over. He is such a good father and husband you and I are very blessed.Love this family❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you! I hope you feel better soon!
The Irish version of your corned beef & cabbage is boiled bacon and cabbage with potatoes . It is delicious, in my family we make it with champ a northern Irish potato dish. Enjoy your Paddy’s day. ☘️🇮🇪
Yes. I debated on whether to explain the fact that Irish did eat bacon and cabbage. When they came to NYC, the bacon was very expensive and not as readily available. The Jewish area of NYC had the cheaper cuts of meat they brined and preserved… so corned beef was their substitute for their bacon and cabbage.
Wow that’s so interesting! I should have guessed the connection because the local Jewish delis here have prepared corned beef for sale for the st. Patrick’s holiday.
Awe, I miss Amber in the shopping vids too. You two are so cute ❤ but the videos are still great! 😊
I hope that u and netta are feeling better? Love your videos
I remember when my son got away from me at the mall. Around Christmas time. He wasn't far, but that panic is something I remember to this day! He has a baby of his own now , but I sure remember how horrible I felt! So glad it was a happy ending!!! ❤❤
Yes! I remember following someone that looked like my dad as a kid and got lost. It’s so easy to do. So grateful it all worked out!
I was aways worried something would happen to one of my kids. My boys were not allowed to get off our street without permission. We lived on a dead end so for the most part it was only neighbors that came through. I was also more concerned for them after an incident that happened in our town. A 10 year old little girl rode her bicycle to the mall and disappeared. That was in 1983. She has never been found. So I was overly protective of my kids. My oldest made a comment one day that he wasn’t allowed off our street until he was 16. I laughed and said it wasn’t that bad. He laughed and said close.
Yes, it’s nerve wracking… but worth the extra effort. My girls want to go to the park but I have them take one of their big brothers with them. I think being in a group helps deter predators. I’m grateful the kids have a built in group. You rarely see children playing outside anymore, but I understand why.
I remember you saying Pearl ran in Central Park. The bad gangs of illegal migrants now here, are getting young girls. I worry about all of the young people traveling alone in NYC. Im glad they out the national guard in subways. I know someone who just got called up. They don’t know where they are going. Reminds me of when Biden called my son in may and by July he was in afghanistan for a year deployment during bidens withdrawal. I knew something bad was coming… things are always in the works before us grains of sand hear about them.
Marc is so sweet confressing he missed having amber with him shopping shows how much he loves u
I love your videos. I have a question… why do you buy salad and chicken with your pizza, but on hotdog nights you don’t buy anything else? Enoch is a good boy and took instruction to heart. 💜
We do try to buy a salad on hotdog night but sometimes I forget!
Feel better Amber!
I was wondering about you because no Grocery post yesterday!
❤️🙏
praying for you and your family, amber🤍 much love and grace to you guys💞 may the Lord bless & keep you..
i’ve watched you guys so much, i feel like we are family lol - and we are family in Christ! i’ll see you in heaven eventually ahaha
you guys inspire & encourage me so much, the Lord uses you as a bright light in a dark world/city.. 🌟 as a young woman who wants to be a wife, mom, and home maker and loves the arts, music, and languages, i have fallen in love with your family and find your content so beautiful, sweet, + helpful!!
children are a blessing from the Lord, blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them.
the world just doesn’t understand that sometimes, so glad that you guys know it though and let the world see your love for each other 💞
Awwww. Marc is just the sweetest! You are such a wonderful family!
❤❤❤
