First ever blog.
I thought I'd start this because friends and family have mentioned that hearing about my daily activities with the five kids is funny and they want more, so here I am.
I guess most would consider us a large family. 5 kids, 2 parents. I am Erin, the mom. I stay-at-home with all of the kids, though I am not often home. Mike, the dad is a US Marine, currently deployed. We have been married for almost 16 years. The oldest kid is Lorelei. She's 8 and is fabulous. Nicholas is 7 and he is sensitive and sweet. Decker is 4. He is 42 pounds of love. Sophia is 3 and is currently experiencing the 'terrible three's'. And, finally we have sweet baby Mads. She is 18 months. If I could keep all of my kids at this age, I would. She is perfect.
We have lived in Southern California for the past 15 1/2 years. Mike has told us to be ready for a big move this spring/summer, but there are no definite orders yet, so we are keeping our fingers crossed that it's somewhere on the West Coast and not Japan.
Life is crazy, fun, chaotic, loud, wonderful...
