I agree. This is a beautiful family, and they’ve been blessed with a good number of kids. Not an “unusual” number of kids, historically speaking.

I get tired of people who hate children, even though they may not realize that’s what they’re doing.

I think you need to gain weight when you get older, or your face will end up looking like a raisin.
I was a size 0 my whole life until I hit 38. I am now a size 4 and I look younger because of the extra weight.

Wow look at all those muslims.

Obviously a practical advantage to polygamy, in an era when maternal deaths in or shortly after childbirth were awfully common.

First thought that comes into my head: “Mommy, she stole my dress because hers has a stain on it!” “No, I didn’t, the stained one is hers” (I should know, my sister and I have been through this countless times, ie, arguing about who got the smaller size of two otherwise identical free t-shirts). The mom has to have so much energy to keep up with all those kids - I could hardly handle working at the local YMCA for a few hours each weekend.

Never had a white couch. But my kids still mock me with “DON’T TOUCH THE WALLS”. I guess I said that frequently while they were growing up?

Could be, I think that age might have something to do with it, along with stupidity on the part of the midwife, this place was out in the booners.

As for polygamy, there was always a reserve of mommies in this case, one, a real good woman. My fathers Grandmother a was a cousin, this was on the frontier, who else are you going to marry.

If old Oscar wanted a second wife, he would have faced the knackers knife, she had 12.

Beautiful family with only one exception. Tell me which one is you and I’ll tell who the exception is. ;)

Good for you!!!! When western civilization breeds itself into extinction nobody will blame you! I’m the oldest of 7 and love big families. We always had a cousin or two living with us...my mother was the family fixer...and we never wanted for anything. For the most part my dad worked and mom stayed home. It seems like they never had an extra nickel to spend but we ate better than anyone else around. My mom was a sensational cook!

It’s pretty obvious they all have the same Dad.

Ok...I hate you! LOL Just kidding. With my last, I stopped vomiting about two days after we got home from the hospital.
There’s just something wrong when you are in the bathroom (sick) while daddy takes the baby for a “sleepytime” ride in the van. LOL

OK. I'm counting, also. Eight girls and five boys equal thirteen children. Look at the pic again.

Will we ever hear whether their 14th is a boy or girl? These five young guys have plenty of sisters...they could use another brother!
