Primarily written by Adrienne, a homeschooling mother of seven, ages 10 and under. She chronicles life, laughs, struggles, and lessons learned as she raises a larger-than-most sized family and tries to figure out what she's doing day by day.

With occasional posts, Alexandra, Adrienne's older sister, writes of her ranch life in Nevada and raising four sons, ages 5 and under. Life is never dull and her boys have given her some pretty awesome stories to tell.

Stick around awhile, and you're sure to laugh, nod, smile, be encouraged, and see what life is like with a big (little) family.

Make up your mind already, Momma.

How awful is it that when Sterling hollered for the second time in 3 minutes from his bed that he needed to potty that I waited a few minutes, hoping he'd just go in the diaper? Really, why?

And where is it written that with a diaper, he'll stay dry all night, but without, wake up soaked?

Potty training has me rather consumed lately. Or at the very least, equipped with soggy stinky blog material. Really, if you don't have kids, I'd stay away. This stuff gets less gross once you do. Strange, I know.

Another thing: we're moving. More details to come (as we figure this out!), but we gave our landlord the month's notice on July 31. We'll be out of this house by the end of the month. Destination: unknown. We had to move by the end of August or stay the winter in this stinky two-family house, and another winter here wasn't an option. Not a good option anyhow.

Ruby's 11 months old today. This is only the second time that I've had an 11 month old and not been expecting another. Don't hold your breath, folks. Not gonna happen. Not if I have anything to say about it. Not that we have a good track record or anything. 2 out of 4. Hmmm...
