According to the statistics.
- Average (or expected - read that normal) number of kids / parents is 2.09
- Average number of TV sets / household = 3
- Average house size = 2,300 sq ft
- and in Chad, Africe - the average number of years that a child goes to school is 3.9.
OK - now for us.
We have 7 kids (above average)
We have 4 tvs, 6 computers, 2 iTouches, 2 cell phones . . . way above average
House is bigger than average (but that follows 7 kids) - our previous house - was, well very average.
and over the past 2 weeks - we have:
- Traveled to Iowa to visit family and have an early Christmas.
- Traveled to South Dakota to visit family for late Christmas and New Years
- Had a great Christmas at home
- Been swimming
- Gone to the Science Museum to see Hubble
- Spent time at the library
- Played lots of games
- Went shopping
- Watched movies
- Played for an afternoon @ McDonalds Playland
- Had lots of late nights
- and miraculously enough - this year; no one has been sick.
We got a book called Radical from my sister for Christmas - and I am very anxious to read through that in January - I have a feeling there is not a lot of 'normal' in that either.
We never claim to fit the mold - and one last proof. David on the potty - holding the kitty hostage with a pistol - nothing normal about that.
'til next time . . .

Love the pic of David. Was so fun to be with you all. Love you and miss you!! xoxo Klarice
Oh my - Davy's picture is priceless! He's gonna have a great graduation video! :)
Nope - nothing normal in that household. I just read Radical and it was as good as all the reviews I had read. Prepare to be challenged.
