Transitioning to 5 KIDS

I'm often asked, "What's set of kids was the hardest to transition between?" To be honest...ALL OF THEM! Life has different challenges at different stages of life. If you have kids, what was your most difficult transition?

    Number 3 was the big change for me. Our five are all grown now with kids of their own. Each have 1 or 2 or 3. They say "mom how did you do it with 5?!!" They think I'm amazing 🤷‍♀️ I let them think it🤣

    Beautiful family! ❤️ I’m 3.5 weeks postpartum with my 6th and last child. For me having my first child was the hardest, I was young and inexperienced and she was colicky. I never got the hang of breastfeeding so I pumped for 10 months. When she was 5 months I went back to work. And we were not as financially startle at that moment. My 2nd child came 18 months later but was very calm so I don’t remember struggling with her as much. My 6th child is a bit cranky but I get help from my kids. Oldest is 13 now. We are in our own house and financially stable with my husband’s job (self-employed) being somewhat flexible. My hands are definitely full right now but I know it will get a little easier soon when baby will be out of the newborn stage.

    Your chatty videos are not long enough! I know you probably sat talking for an hour or more, then had to edit a lot out, but I could “chat” with you half the day! I started watching just after Porter was born and remember so much of what you shared in this video. Our lives paralleled for a while with the schooling and moving and buying a first home. It’s so good to see you guys settled and happy. Your children are all beautiful.💜

    I have 5 children ages 2, 3, 6, 9, 11 and I'm not sure what was the hardest. I think they all had their difficulties...first baby is the first and you don't know what to expect. But then my last baby came and she was a surprise blessing, so my youngest two are only 11 months apart. That had its challenges at times because my 11 month old didn't really understand he had a baby sister, and he was still my baby, so I feel like it made him grow up quicker. But now my youngest are 2 and 3 and they are seriously two peas in a pod and people sometimes think they are twins. I am so thankful we didn't stop at only two children (our first two were a boy and girl and a lot of people said we had the perfect family at that point so why have any more children. So glad we didn't listen to them and I am so grateful God had a better plan for our family than we could have ever imagined). Your family is beautiful Julie ❤

    Julie, YOU are amazing! YOU have done this all in your own. YOU deserve SO much! I have no idea how you have done it on your own. I don’t know if it’s a religion thing, but the mormon church seems to be like the women should stay home and watch the kids, while men get to do everything else. Having kids, raising kids, taking care of kids from day to day is A LOT of work!!! I watch this video and I can think you were alone, you did this all by yourself. You are beyond amazing!

    My last one I had a month after you had milli. I ended up having to have a emergency c -cection I had to stay the hospital for a week after he was born to to high blood pressure. So it was hard trying to take care of a new born when I was pretty much on bed rest for 2 weeks at home after. My 3rd kid has been taking it hard because he not the baby of the family any more but he still gets plenty of attention. Lol

    Julie I have to say that it’s been a real pleasure to watch you and Landon grow your big family.. You guys have 5 Amazing children who each have their own sweet personality. I’ve always said that Porter is the funniest of them all and Cooper is such a sweet loving little boy. Emma is really mature for her age she’s more the motherly of them all and Miss Lucy is just self sufficient and so dang cute..Now the sweetest baby girl I think she’s going to be another little Emma but favor Porter... I just love your all’s channel and I love the way you and Landon are raising your children. To love the Lord and family and show respect to others, you can say I’ve been watching from day one and I’m still here for the long haul... I pray that 2022 treats you guys well it would be well deserved my friend.. Sorry I wrote ya a book however I wasn’t ever good at short hand in school lol...
