Hello All,
Just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Tamyka and I'm a wife and mom to 5. 4 boys and 1 girl ages 4 -16. It's nice to be able to connect with other moms with more than 2 kids, we can better relate to the EXTRA kaos that goes on in our homes!

Hi there. I'm a mommy to 4 and get tired of being called a baby-factory by the family (who by the way have more than me!!!, lol! I've been preggo 8 times though (miscarried 4). Ours are ages 4 months, 3 years, 6 years and 9 years. It is so nice to meet everyone and have folks to hang out with!!!

Hi all! I'm a mom to 6 kiddos ranging from 1 to almost 14yrs. I love hanging out with other large family moms who don't give you that funny look when you say you have more than 2.5 kids :)

Mrs. Allison Draeger,
Most of us have gone throught the "how can you have so many" issue. We mostly learn to use humor to put up with it. ;) I adore my four and they are great kids. 3 boys and one girl. Now I have a wonderful grandson with twins grandchildren on the way in May 2010. Hang in there my friend and remember they don't appreciate what they don't understand

Sorry Jen, hit the wrong button and need to finish that thought here. lol.

Your statement is so true and I wouldn't have it any other way. I have 4 children and only one chose to save the world this way for a while. He was an army ranger and went to Iraq/ affganistan a number of times.

Please contact me if it will help. Blessings to you for raising such a child. :)

Hi Jen Vasiliades,
I had a son in the Military. He chose not to enlist again so he can be home with his wife and children. They have one son and are expecting twins in May.

Your right it is both a proud moment and a frightening one. I love the way you put it,
"That's what happens when you raise "free range kids" lol! They go off to save the world! and they are confident in their abilities. : ) "

Happy to find this group! As mommy to 9 kiddos, it's always good to hear what other large families are doing.

Hi, Mom of 7 here - they range from 23 down to 15 yr old twins! I'm the youngest of 5 children, but I never thought I would have this many kids! I wouldn't have it any other way though!!
