So I guess we’ll start off with me, I’m cc I’m 22 years old and as you can probably guess by now I have 4 beautiful children all under 5 years of age, as well as that I’m a student studying a diploma of counselling and a wife.

My husband works full time but we are lucky enough that it is 2 weeks on and 2 weeks off so makes things a tiny bit easy when he is here but 10 times harder when he isn’t.

Our kids consist of 3 girls and a boy and yes yes I no wouldn’t it of been great if we had ended up with 2 girls and 2 boys but this is what we were drawn and we love it.

Our eldest girl is 5 and starts prep next year, then we have a 3 and a half year old girl who oh boy has a massive attitude even for her age haha, we then move onto our son who is a year and a half old and quite the energetic kid who never stops and then our youngest girl who is 2 months and I think will be our problem child but we will talk about that another time 🙂

Yes yes I no they are all so close together and as we are constantly asked what the age gaps are here I’ll tell you now they are 17 months between the first 2, 2 years between the second 2 and 17 months between the last 2.

Well that’s the whole family in our household and a little bit about them but I’m sure you’ll hear plenty more over time.

I guess the real reason I have started this is mostly because I am constantly asked “how do you do it?” or I’m told “hats off to you for getting this far” and don’t get me wrong I’m not the only one out there parenting with this amount of kids or with these types of age gaps but I’m not going to lie you really don’t hear, see or read about many and it makes it hard especially if you do need help or just reassurance that your doing something right. I guess the other part is that I want other parents out there to be able to read my stories and think “well at least I’m not the only one experiencing every now and then” and believe me there are definitely struggles but they don’t outweigh the joy that your kids bring to you.

I hope that people out there can read what I write and it can help you or even just give you a laugh and if you want to ask anything don’t be scared to no question is stupid 🙂 I’ll write again soon

Thanks CC ❤
