A new clown has left the car! (1 Viewer)

How old is the next youngest? How old is the oldest?

Lived next to a family that had 8. Every once in a while I would pick up one of the younger ones that had wondered a couple blocks away and take them back home.. Came home a couple of times to find one in our house watching TV.

 
1 more and you can apply to MLS for an expansion team.

congrats, though.

I can't imagine what your grocery shopping trips must be like... and the fear in the eyes of the guys having to stock the store you shop in.

The next youngest will be 3 next month. The oldest is 18. Yes she's hot, no pics.

We live out in the country with a fully fenced property. They aren't going anywhere.

I don't think it's bad. I buy meat in bulk. Half a steer once a year and chicken breast twice a year. They don't eat much really. I'm sure that will change when the boys hit that stride.

 
What small business health insurance plan do you qualify for when you hit 10?

Congrats.
I'm not sure. I know we are ok til we hit 10. I don't know what will happen if we have another before the oldest is off. Same price, one kid or ten. Just trying to get our money's worth.
No comment or judgement on the number of kids, but this #### burns me up re: insurance premiums. My coworker has 6 kids and I have one.

Why should we be paying the same? :bs:

 
I think he meant Mormon....are you Mormon?

Were these all planned or did they just happen?

Do you plan on more? How many more?
Not Mormon either.

We just really liked the first one, had another. And so on. You do what you're good at. We are really good at this. They came one at a time over the last 19 years. Im in great health, never had problems. It works for us.

But I think I'm done. I'm really tired. I'm old (44). I have nothing to prove. And at 12 pounds, he can be the caboose.

Then this will really cheese you off: the company my husband works for covers 100% of the premiums. So his two kid coworker isn't mad.

Maybe.

 
Congrats. Our 2 girls are plenty. 3 seems like it would be unpossible let alone 10.
1 is hard, 2 is worse. 3 and more gets easier. I think it mostly because I don't care as much about every little thing.
Do the older kids help out a lot with the younger ones? That was always the case with the big families I know. Built-in babysitters. My ex's side had some big families (Catholic). Some of the kids were out of the house and married before their last sibling was born.

where "every little thing" is code for kid #3-9.

eta: I feel compelled to add a big ;) ... a mom just out of childbirth shouldn't have to deduce the sarcasm or think some yabo from the internet is blasting her parenting skills.

Do you have a border collie to help corral them when they are all out in the yard? It would seem like good herding dog would REALLY help!

But congratulations nevertheless.

Pretty much it is true though. With one you have all those dreams of making it magical, two you keep trying but you can't make everything magical all the time and one or the other snowflake is unhappy. After three, you just learn to love things for what they are. House is a mess, I don't care. "Frozen" theme parties, nope. You figure out what is truly important and aim for those goals.

We had an Australian shepherd for 12.5 years. She was amazing. She did watch over them. I said I would let her nurse them if she wanted to.

They do. 3 delivered 9 and they have been inseparable since. 4 wants that kind of relationship with 10 so he is constantly asking me if there is something he can do yo help, teach him how to do something. My oldest is out of the house, she was a huge help because she could drive.

Do you actually call them by their numbers or do you use their names?

I've heard that those are great dogs. She probably would have let them nurse, if it had been necessary.

Depends on what venue. Here on the internet I go by numbers because no one knows their names and can't keep track. I don't use age because that changes, so number works. But at home I call them everything but their name including running through dogs names before I remember the right one.

It would be a much better world if more moms adopted your attitude.
