I survived!

LOL bit of an exaggeration however...

I survived my first day with 5 DCK and my own 2 kids. Thus far, I have had 3 DCK and just signed on my other 2, brother and sister. It went well, everyone even slept in one room which I thought for sure wouldnt happen!

I was a little nervous about adding the other 2 but I figure I will take it one day at a time!

Congratulations! What a great feeling knowing that you can do it. I hope everyday is as good as today was.

That's what I have too, 7 in total. and yeah it can be CRAZY at times! I keep my own two in their shared room for sleeping, and the other 5 dcks in another bedroom together. Congrats on surviving!!!

That's crazy! I'm happy with 5 children and really admire those of you who also have your own children in the mix to make big, happy groups. I think I would be so exhausted!
