Introduction We are a big happy family of 7 - me, my husband, and 5 boys. To answer the most commonly asked questions: Yes, we did want every single child. Yes, we tried for a girl once, but eventually we decided we were happy with whatever we got. And No, I don't have it all together all of the time. In fact, I rarely (if ever) have it all together! We just keep the important things together and try to keep most of the pee off of the toilet seats. At least in mom's bathroom. Sometimes...
Interests Love my boys! On the side, I love desserts (which is why Weight Watchers loves me!), love music - I listen to a variety but am most affected by Bach and Country, I play my flute when I get a chance and am trying to improve my piano skills, and I love to read! I currently am a member of 2 book clubs and I read as I nurse my baby. I'll probably have to drop one club when I wean my boy!
Favorite Movies Movies? I haven't been to a movie without my boys in YEARS! That being said, I really enjoyed Night at the Museum, the first non animated flick that I'd seen in a very long time...
Favorite Music Bach in the Bath is one of my favorite CD's right now. My radio pre-sets are split between country, classic rock, and news radio.
Favorite Books I just finished reading Goose Girl by Shannon Hale. Loved it! I've got a lot that I like, most often it's the one I'm currently reading. Right now I'm reading Twilight by Stephenie Meyer, but I can't get past the fact that the main character is still in high school. Too much romance for too young of a girl...

Well, maybe they don't need them, but don't you think that some fish might like a bicycle?

Maybe... but traction on the sand really stinks...
