Are you...

Ahhh, the burning questions we get asked on a weekly basis.  They all tend to begin with "Are you" and then proceed to ask us rather personal things.  Thank God I have a funny sense of humor.  I find them all hilarious and often answer with things most people aren't expecting.  I mean, if you are going to ask dumb questions shouldn't you receive a dumb answer??

So, are you ..."Mormon?  Catholic?  Very fertile?  Aware of what causes that?  Against birth control?  Sure they are all yours?  Thinking of trying for #10?  Going to put a TV in your room? "  How many of those were you wondering yourself??  Come on.  Seeing the back of my Suburban makes you wonder, right?  It is ok.  I am not offended.  I have been asked them all and then some.

Yes, we have 9 kids.  The one with the added one on top is married.  She is a PLUS!  The one with the halo and wings has passed away.  She is our angel but we still count her in our 9.  I did give birth to her so she counts in my book.  The others are ours...not matter how they got here.  They range from 1984 to 2006.  Some came to us easy some took years and fertility treatment.  None were a mistake.  We did not have a large family for religious reasons.   I guess we like each other...and kids.  Well, we did until we had them.  Now, I am not so sure!!

Right now one is crying in my ear because she needs me to go to bed with her.  Oh yeah...she is 6 and still sleeps with us.  Ugh!!  My husband is upstairs playing HALO with 2 others and not happy that he is losing to a 9 year old.  My life is crazy.  But, my one big rule...don't bleed on the carpet!!  :)

What is your ONE big house rule??
