Toddlers are full of personality and sass. Especially little girls. I’ve now been through 6 toddlerhoods and am on a 7th soon to be the 8th. Let me tell you my girls have been the hardest during toddler time. There are big differences with girls vs boys when it comes to pretty much every stage,…
It’s hard to believe Mia is now nine months old. April 1st seems like it was just yesterday but clearly, it was nine months ago. She is growing and exceeding all her milestones most of which are before she is supposed to be hitting them. All due to the fact she has 7 older siblings…
It’s hard to believe Hanna is now two but when you meet her and spend time with her she seems so much older than she actually is. She’s such a smart little girl who loves to learn and loves to get into everything – which is a blessing but also a curse, oh to be…

Money, Money, Money. Kids believe it grows on trees and that parents have unlimited amounts of it. Or, maybe that’s just my kids? I don’t know but my kids seem to think money grows on trees around here! I work very hard for my money, being employed at a full-time job and investing wisely in…
As pet owners we only want what is best for our pets. Sometimes what we think is best — isn’t. One thing I have always grown up to believe is dogs need a space to call their own, with a comfy bed so they can relax. All my life I have had animals. As a…
With a house full of people laundry is something we are no stranger to! I get asked all the time how do we deal with so many people? We must have so much laundry! Well, we do. Sometimes it’s a never-ending saga, while other times if we work together it’s done and put away quickly…
We have been spending an awful lot of time at the park and playgrounds near our house lately. It’s been a lot of fun but it can also be stressful for us parents! Watching all the kids playing while also trying to chase the toddler, and cuddle the baby. It’s no easy task but we…
The past few months have been a learning curve for all of us in our household. With Jayden’s ADHD diagnosis it’s been a constant for me to research and make sure we are doing everything we can to help aide him with everything he needs. All children no matter what challenges they face, or disorders…
This Spring we got all our kids new bikes. They hadn’t had new bikes in a long time so it was time! With bikes comes responsibility and rules. Both of these can be hard for kids 13 and younger, however – they are a must when it comes to bicycles. The kids need to learn…
Having eight kids means lots of different activities going on all the time at the same time. My kids range from age 6 weeks to 15 years old so what one of the older kids may be doing the other kid who is 2 may not be able to do. So, I’ve had to really…
We’ve been talking a lot lately about our summer plans. While we don’t have anything set in stone yet one thing we are considering is going camping! I haven’t been camping since I was twelve years old, so I am DYING to go with my family! It’s so exciting! We have been throwing around ideas…
