I'm not huge into fashion and so I don't enjoy spending money on clothes but it needs to be done😀 personally I spend more money on fresh and different foods to feed my family bc that is more important to me. My teen kids would probably rather me spend more on clothes, though, lolAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-63357241197914571042018-11-08T02:18:23.710-06:002018-11-08T02:18:23.710-06:00And so it is catty nior!And so it is catty nior!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-90268328073708990962018-11-07T22:49:29.443-06:002018-11-07T22:49:29.443-06:00Celeste Lawler.

It likely adds up to be quite a bit of money. Also, Alyssa's inlaws own a business and her father-in-law is a congressman. Perhaps they have extra money to indulge the grandkids. Why does it matter, anyway?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-13078442099696537922018-11-07T07:41:30.201-06:002018-11-07T07:41:30.201-06:00I shop at discount stores like TJ Maxx, hit up out...I shop at discount stores like TJ Maxx, hit up outlet stores, get hand me downs from friends and shop at thrift/secondhand stores for my teenage daughter.

She may have bought things before the girls could fit into them just because they matched.<br /><br />A mom I know has twin girls. She found another mom at our school also with twin girls a little bit younger. She started to hand down a lot of clothes. It's possible Alyssa knows someone or found moms at a mom to mom sale who also have little girls. momofchickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01911441182575183546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-47772882178465236952018-11-06T20:21:56.745-06:002018-11-06T20:21:56.745-06:00Very true @2:49Very true @2:49Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-36326357098859846402018-11-06T20:19:55.390-06:002018-11-06T20:19:55.390-06:00Thank you for saying this @11:40.

It has been featured on the show a few times. Alyssa helped with the cleaning oftentimes while John watched the kids at home. Now that they have three, I don't know if Alyssa actually does any cleaning, but it seems reasonable that she at least does the bookkeeping since she did that for her parents when she was still single.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13903673821002397907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-85564592321682315192018-11-05T11:49:01.442-06:002018-11-05T11:49:01.442-06:00She also has her own cleaning companyShe also has her own cleaning companyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5387778566526841808.post-91651456943348642952018-11-05T11:48:12.782-06:002018-11-05T11:48:12.782-06:00Not sure but his Dad is like a Congressman or Sena...Not sure but his Dad is like a Congressman or Senator.
