OMG!!! I can not imagine!

You know, that has to be awesome to have all her children standing there with her to welcome the new baby.

We have two boys and I'm a big baby dude - I'd have to say vasectomy...

I can't imagine how their children daily life would be. It must be like a war zone just to get some attention

Paul - Aw c'mon, you know you'd like it! hehehehe! Brady's all we can handle... ain't that right, honey!

Davida - I know! I've watched some shows about The Duggars on TLC and it's amazing to see how they do things. Things are chaotic here and we just have one toddler! hahaha! My mom had four kids (me, and three boys) within five years so it was like she had quads. Our house was chaotic. We were wild and as Bill Cosby said, "Let the beatings begin!" Every day somebody was gonna get a spanking. My brothers and I have a great time laughing it up about our childhood memories.

Ktales - Can you believe it?! Whew, I'd get fixed myself! :) My favorite line is "We both would love to have more." They say that each time they have a baby.

BlueCrystalDude - I would sure think so! It's really weird/different/interesting/and in some cases cool how they do things. They have the older siblings in charge of the little ones and the mom takes care of the newborn. Anyway, it works for them and their happy with the setup. I personally couldn't hang.

I've been watching that family ever since baby 16. I thought they would have quit by now but I'm amazed that she is willing to continue giving birth. There has to be an end in sight for this family.

Laura said...

Vhing - Hahahaha! She is incredible. I can hardly imagine having six kids... but 18? Whew! She gives a new definition to Super Mom!

Lynne - I know! And they want MORE!

Angel - I've been watching their TV shows since she was pregnant with baby 16 too. But an end in sight? I don't think so!

I have four (18,14,6,2) and sometimes when I watch their show I feel like I must be doing something wrong because I can't seem to get my four to coordinate with each other so we could leave the house together without fighting. Is it because we're more selfish (in a good way of course) then the Duggar parents? Our kids want to do more like watch TV, play games, be involved in outdoor activities...etc? Anyway, God Bless her womb and her patience. Her kids are not only home-schooled but musically talented and apparently cooperative.

LOL - I'm with Paul, I am also SMH... these people need to be stopped before it is too late ;)

Laura said...

SpinDiva - LOL! You have a huge gap in the age difference in your kiddos too! :) I am very impressed with how the Duggars run their household. I can't imagine it for myself but it works really well for them.

Amy - LOL! Stop them? There's no stopping these two baby-makin' lovebirds! Goodness gracious, they want M-O-R-E! It just boggles my mind... and I love kids!
