Hair Bows & Halloween ║ Hang Out With This Homeschool Mom Of 9 │ Week 6

In this video, we had a short school week. On the first day, we spent the day sorting through, organizing and putting away clothes since Tom and I had been clothes shopping the night before. It was also Tom's birthday that day. On the last day, it was Halloween. Thomas did regular school work that day, but the rest of us just went to the library and then spent the day doing Halloween activities. During the rest of the week, we did lots of school work, made banana bread and homemade noodles, tissue flowers, hair bows and clay pots. (Apparently I forgot to get a picture of Justus' pot once he was done with it.) Sophia had fun playing with my old Dressy Bessy doll and Claudia played with Dapper Dan. Thomas helped make tortillas and the rest of the food for Taco Tuesday. On Saturday, Tom and Asher mowed and trimmed weeds at the Presbyterian Church while the rest of us checked out our local secondhand store. (It's only open a few hours on Saturday mornings.) We found a yellow plate to go with the set we already have so now Eden has the correct plate color. She was quite happy about that! My Uncle Kevin was here during this week visiting Grandma Fern. I hadn't seen him since my mom died 8 1/2 years ago. He lives in Canada and it was so nice to see him.

We homeschool using ACE curriculum.

I think you should probably take your shoes off for work. We'Re gon na today we're gon na take grandmas and the bar right from one banana bread, and then I made her some people put in her freezer. Sometimes she doesn't like what they have to eat. She doesn't like much to eat my last week. She really wanted some of that peanut butter sandwich that I brought for Claudia. So I thought maybe I'll just stick those in our freezer. I cut them into quarters and then she just take one piece of a sandwich out which she wants to and thought fast and got something to nibble on if she doesn't like what they have for her meal there, where you left home once and then I realized, I forgot, graham, has been in a hangar and plastic forks that she wanted, so justice get them. Yeah we're gon na stay in the car. While justice goes and gets her stuff, we forgot - oh hey, I forgot we have a special visitor. I completely forgot milk for me.

PJL: Another 58 minutes spent with the Mills Family...best part of my week<3<3<3

Tonya: Sophia, I like how you were so patient while you were trying to button the dolls dress strap.

Alex C: For Edens bows you can get a long piece of ribbon and pin it on the wall and she can clip all of them on to it. Plus it can be a decor item since they are so pretty!! I did that for mine when I was a cheerleader and I loved “shopping”for them when I needed one!

Kristy Dee: Eden is really growing up into a beautiful young lady! All your children are wonderful ❤️

Norma Gillette: Wait...she can sew her own skirts AND make beautiful hair bows?! Way too much talent for such a young girl, good job Eden!!! You are fabulous!

Lupus 🦋 Butterfly: I can watch your videos over and over and always see something new.♥️

Jessica Abel: Claudia, "Can I dry the clouds?" so cute.;)

Denise Gonzalez: ‍♀️Hi Andrea...Thank you for sharing your wonderful family moments. I know that you put a lot of hard work putting out the videos and i appreciate it! Thanks again!!

hearsthewater: As always a wonderful treat to get to see you and your lovely family. I was super impressed with Sophia's problem solving skills when she was trying to conquer Dressy Bessy's button. She kept trying and then eventually asked you for help, but in a way that sounded so very adult! You have done a great job teaching her how to think for herself!

MomKel: I just love watching your family. I am recently separated from my husband of 15 years and while we are separated we are sharing the kids. He has them one week, then I have them the next. The weeks they are with him I don’t hardly know what to do with myself. When one of your vlogs posts, I get so excited because they always make me smile and I know it will help pass the time!!! THANK YOU for putting warmth in my heart when I am a bit down and missing my kiddos!

Camille K: Thomas looks so much like you, Andrea. Certain facial expressions he makes and even some of the ways you say things, he does, too! I know you say he’s reminds you of his Dad, but man do I see you in him!

RonnyBunny: Your kids are just amazing!! Solomon is getting to be so responsible knowing toys would distract him!! Edens bows are so beautiful!! I think they are better then JoJos because she made them!! =)

Jess Catley: Its lovely to see the bear!! Hope you're all good, looking forward to sitting down with you all for an hour!

Judy Kelly: It has been lovely 'catching up' with your family, thank you ! xx

Anita Tucker: Hannah is looking more and more like Claudia every day. I noticed too some of the girls favor grandma.

grateful1929: A beautiful soul who graced this earth.❤️

CJ Bennett: Loved the bows, has Eden considered making a bow holder? I’ve seen some cool ones that are a small wooden shape with a length of ribbon hanging down from it that you can clip the bows to, it hangs straight onto the wall, should make for a fun craft!

Jamie Rossi: Hiya Tom, I clicked onto this to get some pointers from Andrea on JoJo hairbows. I sure did. Zip ties! lol ! I had watched Edens celebration with the bow making holders made. Brilliant. . I loved every bit of it. My niece Ramona loves those bows as well. Walmart carries a colorful variety in high top JoJo Siwa shoes. They sell for 16.88. Maybe Eden might be interested in saving up.

Loretta Tinkham: Looks like baby Hannah is going to be mobile soon . Cute bows eden

Jordan Smith: Great video as always! You guys should eventually make some merch!

Amanda Hurst: I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate the post card you sent me. It was sweet and unexpected. I am Amanda from CA. Hope it see the pobox video soon.

Sharon Torres: Love seeing your videos. I wait for them everyday. Hannah is getting so big already. Too cute

Heidi Hanson: Never laughed as hard... "The place is a mess because of partying".

xdismalxkittenx: ive been addicted to your videos! im a toddler teacher at a Montessori school, and a mom of 1 teen and I get enough kid interaction so seeing you in your mass of kids leaves me in awe of how seamless you make it! but I do have a question...have you ever thought of the Montessori way of teaching? how self sufficient you already teach your kids, I feel it would be perfect for your littles.

Lupielife: You can spray your bows with a little bit of unscented hairspray and let them dry to stiffen and shape them

Monica Cliver: Thank you so much for your video.Look for Hannah's stocking,in mail soon.

JCB MaMa: Eden sure does look like JoJo with her pretty bows and fancy vest. I love Sophia's leopard and pink coat! If it came in my size I'd wear it too!

Laura Junk: Loved this video! I was wondering if you could maybe explain in a video at some point, the tablet and phone situation with the kiddos? Are there restrictions? Monitoring apps/searches? Do mom and dad get to have their passwords? Does each child get to have a smart phone at a certain age? Just thought could be helpful for other mamas out here.

Homemade Home: Thanks for sharing your beautiful family love watching ware did you get the doll from would love to see your recipes thanks so much you inspire me I also have a channel would love for you to check it out many blessings

Jane E Smith: Thomas is a fine young man.

Jaclyn R: Love your videos, being greedy and want more ☺️

betheny auker: So happy and excited to see this pop up!!!! Yay!

Debra Snyder: Your youngin's are adorable. Wish you would show how Asher loves holding the young siblings. And they love him up.

Please bless Tom and these babies real good and help them every minute of every day to live out this life as you would want them to. Give Tom and these babies ten fold what they lost. In Jesus Name, I pray.

Kyiesha Miller: Waiting on clothing haul video

Bonnie Bertrand: So was Kevin Grandma Fern's "baby" - her youngest? If you have an Uncle Steve and an Aunt Mona, does that mean Grandma Fern had 4 children? I have a feeling there were at least a few more , she truly has had such an interesting life!! The Daddy Cam caught some beautiful Wyoming pictures!

mommaxela: This is probably a dumb question but I'm generally just curious.. are the kids up with the times. Like do they listen/ watch stuff of this time. I love how yall just seem too be more vintage times. Very interesting.
