Our last one was 12lb. 7 oz.

He came out the normal way without anaesthetics.

Of course, for ht elast 8 years, my wife has absolutely no sympathy for anyone else who is sick.

I was laying on the floor in agony with a slipped disk a few years ago. She just kicked me like a dead fish on the beach and said “When you drop a 12 1/2 pound kid, I’ll feel some sympathy for a little sore back.”

There was another baby that large born in 2005 in Brazil! I smell a conspiracy of developing a Master Race of huge babies, LOL! (Or maybe that smell is just a diaper that needs changing.)

The man who came up with that graphic should be castrated. Thank God for men who allow their wives to be mothers, and not toilets.

Amen to that! Mrs. Duggar is my personal hero, even though it’s more for her organizational skills than the beautiful kids!

If it weren’t for her organizational skills (and Mr. Duggar’s, too, I’m sure) their children would look like mine!

After giving this more thought, I’d add, not everyone is called to have a very large family. However, those who do have that as their life’s work deserve as much respect as anyone who takes on a very challenging and socially valuable task. Especially when they do such an exemplary job at it as the Duggars seem to be doing!

I’ll bet the originator of the graphic is someone like Mark Morford.

If I am not mistaken, you have quite a brood yourself. I’ve seen people here ribbing you about it, and it’s all in good fun! God bless you, dear, I don’t know how a woman manages more than two, and I say that as the mother of three...

Also, I come from a big Irish family and the requisite legions of aunts, uncles, and cousins. Both sides. Uphill both ways! Don’t ever doubt it, your kids will always be lucky to have each other. Take care.

Only eight children (or nine, if you count James twice, as he does). I’m happy to take a joke if it’s meant simply for cheer. However, sometimes you see things that are pure, unadulterated ugly.

Hope you have a good weekend!
