Okay, first would like to give a shout out to the wonderful person who invented the amazing carts that carry more than one child! And have a boy-friendly theme. Also to the people that understood that cookies at the grocery store--free of course--was a good idea! Now I can say that earlier this week, all five of us actually made it to the grocery store. WOW! I think most people assume I am absolutely crazy to have so many kids--not that it really is that many in my opinion--but I assume others are flabbergasted. I seriously walk through the store with everyone staring at me with incredulous looks on their faces. Praise God that I am not struggling with fear of man over this or I would not even go out! But we went in, were done within 20 minutes (it was a trial run after all!) and then got out and back into the car. WHEW! It wasn't so bad as I thought and so I repeated it with Walmart this time, except with all their decent prices Wally doesn't have good carts, bummer!!
Here are two pictures of my brood-- I wonder how much a brood actually is? I might be misusing that classification! But lest you think it was absolutely uneventful, check the second photo where they are fighting. They simply cannot stop man handling one another.

I'd say a brood is around 8-9, here's my quotation. "How many chicks in an average brood of wild turkeys? I was driving out in the country today and a family scurried across the road. I stopped to let them pass and was surprised at how many chicks were running after the hen, maybe 8 or 9." That seemed pretty fitting for your fam! Love you! Haha!
So you have at least 5 more to go!
I'm so glad to hear that someone else's boys manhandle one another too. I was beginning to wonder if I was failing as Mama.
