How big is your family?

Alright everybody I would love to hear how large your families are. I am doing some research and would love to have your experiences to add. Of course the names of your kids will be gladly accepted too :). Stories would be lovely.

I don’t have any kids of my own, but I have 3 sisters and 2 brothers.

Sisters:
[name]Lucy[/name] [name]Georgia[/name] [name]Ann[/name] (known as [name]Georgia[/name])
[name]Katherine[/name] [name]Rose[/name] [name]Marie[/name] (known as [name]Katie[/name])
[name]Hannah[/name] [name]Jennifer[/name] [name]Jane[/name]

Brothers:
[name]Michael[/name] [name]Jacob[/name] [name]Isaac[/name]
[name]Johnathan[/name] [name]Carl[/name] [name]Samuel[/name] (known as [name]Johnny[/name])

Oh, and my name is [name]Ashley[/name] [name]Olivia[/name] [name]Mae[/name], and I’m the oldest sibling. :slight_smile:

I am the eldest of two girls: [name]Avalon[/name] [name]Grace[/name] (me) and [name]Asia[/name] [name]Joy[/name]. My dad joked with my mother that their marriage couldn’t handle another kid haha. My parents like the small numbers because then you hold each kid’s hand and travel comfortably in a sedan, and have fewer people to schedule around and keep track of. I get their idea and it has worked in practice but I have always wanted more siblings.

I’m the oldest of two. [name]Alix[/name] [name]Louise[/name] (me) and [name]Anna[/name] [name]Lillian[/name] my little sister. It was always a joke that if my parents had another of course it would be a girl (Dad’s curse) and she would have to have an A- L- name to match us. =) We are 2 years, 5 months and 10 days apart in case that matters

I have one sibling, my younger sister [name]Melissa[/name].

My husband is 1 of 4. He has 3 older sisters.

I am the oldest of 3, my DH the youngest of 3. We have 4 children and are pregnant with our 5th and final.

I myself have 2 brothers, [name]Ethan[/name] (3 years older than me) and [name]Wyatt[/name] (11 months younger than me). My mom however has 10 siblings and my dad has 5

I have one sister, my husband has one brother, we have one daughter…I would love one more eventually!

Perfect post for my family! I am married to a wonderful man, [name]William[/name]. We have six children, ages 14, 7, 4, 2 year old twins, and a newborn. We had our first daughter really early in our marriage and we decided to wait a little while, hence the big age jump. I am currently trying to plan my little sister’s wedding, as she has [name]EVEN[/name] LESS TIME than I do. Pretty amazing. My eldest daughter, [name]Lily[/name], loves the baby and the twins, but she gets really frustrated with all of them as well. We are a great family though, we get along (well, sometimes) and the kids love each other (mostly). Sometimes, that’s the best you can do :wink:

My immediate family is just me, my husband, and my son, so 3. I have one brother, and my husband was an only child.

Well I have three half brothers and two half sisters. [name]Leif[/name], [name]John[/name], [name]Shawn[/name], [name]Lori[/name], and [name]Vicky[/name].

As for my immediate family, it’s just me and my daughter. Her name is [name]Ruth[/name] [name]Temperance[/name].

Me, my boyfriend and our [name]Baby[/name] in my belly.

My boyfriend has three brothers with eight kids between them. I’ve got one sister ([name]Anna[/name]) with a son, and one brother ([name]Christian[/name]).

My immediate family is me ([name]Erin[/name]), brother ([name]Cole[/name]) and parents ([name]Robert[/name] and [name]Roxanna[/name]). I have two half sisters ([name]Rachael[/name] and [name]Katlyn[/name]) and a half brother ([name]Joshua[/name]).
My fiance’s family is him ([name]Martin[/name]), his four brothers ([name]Clay[/name], [name]Leo[/name], [name]Frank[/name] and [name]Oscar[/name]), his two sisters ([name]Lucy[/name] and [name]Edie[/name]) and his parents ([name]Chad[/name] and [name]Alicia[/name] “[name]Ali[/name]”).

Immediate family is [name]Tara[/name] (me!), [name]Tim[/name] (DH), and [name]Ivy[/name] (DD).

I’m the youngest of 13 with 6 half (3 of Mom’s, 3 of Dad’s) and 6 steps (2 of Stepmom’s, 4 of Stepdad’s), most of whom are a fair bit older than I am.
Halfs: [name]Scott[/name], [name]Stephen[/name], [name]Timothy[/name], [name]Sheri[/name], [name]Judi[/name], [name]Richard[/name]
Steps: [name]Christine[/name], [name]Beth[/name], [name]Michelle[/name], [name]Amy[/name], [name]James[/name], [name]Melanie[/name]

DH is the youngest of 3 boys - brothers named [name]Jeffrey[/name] and [name]Jonathan[/name].

Immediate family is me, [name]Anna[/name], my husband [name]Charles[/name], and our daughter [name]Lila[/name]. I have one brother, [name]Alex[/name], and my husband has four sisters, [name]Heather[/name], [name]Beverly[/name], [name]Mary[/name], and [name]Sarah.[/name]. My husband also has dozens upon dozens of cousins, aunts and uncles, and assorted relatives I couldn’t even begin to name!

I have one sister and one half-brother (same dad). My husband is one of four sons. We have two daughters with our third child on the way. None of his brothers or my sister have kids.

I’m the middle of three sisters.
[name]Paula[/name]'s 35
I’m 23
[name]Elizabeth[/name]'s 20
[name]Shannon[/name]'s 20 <- stepsister
Kellan’s 17 <- stepbrother

My husband and I are both the eldest in families of 3 children. We’re currently expecting two of our own, and I’m 99.9% sure that will be it for us!

My husband ([name]Jay[/name]) and I have twin boys ([name]Oliver[/name] [name]Graham[/name] and [name]Luke[/name] [name]Axel[/name]). Each of us has one younger sister ([name]Lea[/name] and [name]Katrina[/name]), neither of whom have any children yet. My dad is one of 4 boys ([name]John[/name], [name]George[/name], [name]Larry[/name] and [name]Randy[/name]) and my mom has 9 siblings ([name]Karen[/name], [name]Susan[/name], [name]Linda[/name], [name]Sylvia[/name], [name]Peter[/name], [name]Astrid[/name], [name]Heidi[/name], [name]Eric[/name], [name]Megan[/name] and [name]Katrina[/name]). My mother-in-law had only one sister ([name]Diana[/name] and [name]Jan[/name]). My husband’s dad has a interesting family. His parents had him and his brother when his father died. His mother remarried. His mother died. His step-father remarried a woman who had a boy and a girl. Together they had a new son. So ultimately my father-in-law ended up with 2 brothers and 1 sister ([name]John[/name], nn [name]Jack[/name], [name]Peter[/name], [name]Ann[/name]-[name]Marie[/name], [name]David[/name], and [name]Robert[/name]). We are close to them all.

I’m pregnant with my first, so not sure yet how many I’ll have when I’m done. I’m an only child. My mother has 1 brother, who never had children. My biological father was a sperm donor, so it’s entirely possible I have half-siblings, either by other families using his samples or by him going on to have his own family, but all those records are sealed and people I’ll never know don’t really impact the family dynamic. My legal father had a sister with 2 kids and a brother with 1. I haven’t been in touch with any of them for a long time, but I know the oldest had 1 child. I have no idea if the other two “cousins” have children.
