From the beginning...
My name is April. I am 32 years old, a birthday in April, married to a wonderful man, Scott who is 36. We have 7 children, 5 boys and 2 girls. March 3rd our little girl is due to come into this crazy world. We live a simple life, go to a nice Baptist church, never really been adventurous so we look forward to the day we can go on a real vacation together, alone.
You might wonder how someone so young can have so many kids? Well if TLC got a hold of us they would put us on air... Scott and April plus 8! Our family is constructed of a his, mine and ours team. When Scott and I met back in '95 he had a 3yr old and I had a 15mth old. We were both single parents with nothing to do with the missing parent. In '96 we shared a daughter. It was beautiful. We were both very happy. About a year later Scott received a call that he might have a daughter in another state. Long story short she came to live with us a short while later. So we were up to 4 kids by then! I was like 21 yrs old with 4 kids!
It went on.. in '00 we had our first son together. Some time later in '04 we had another son trying for a girl. So we figured we would try again and in '07 we had another son. We were trilled and blessed. But we both longed for a girl again... so one more time and in March of '09 we will have our little girl at last! So here is our family in order Anthony 16 1/2, Samantha 15, Daniel 14, Cheyenne 12, Shaiman 8, Logan 4, and Grayson 21mths. Our little girl will be named Sequoia Autumn. Its been a long road the past 13 yrs but we have made it this far and plan on going on as God allows us.
Anthony is not in the picture because he wasnt available and i have yet to photoshop him in. :)
