<v Speaker 1>is your older daughter?

0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:16.240
<v Speaker 2>She just turned six years old. So the babies just

0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:21.880
<v Speaker 2>turned two on April the fifth and April the eighth. Sorry,

0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:25.720
<v Speaker 2>Blake just turned six on April the eighth, and the Quinn.

0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:31.959
<v Speaker 3>Six on April fifth, and the Quint turned two on

0:01:32.040 --> 0:01:32.720
<v Speaker 3>April eighth.

0:01:36.880 --> 0:01:40.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm not even I'm not even gonna ask you your anniversary?

0:01:41.040 --> 0:01:43.360
<v Speaker 1>Are you going to be in big trouble?

0:01:43.440 --> 0:01:47.240
<v Speaker 3>Adam? Adam just had his birthday like two weeks ago too,

0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:48.320
<v Speaker 3>so do you know that?

0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:48.520
<v Speaker 2>One?

0:01:48.560 --> 0:01:48.800
<v Speaker 3>Buzz?

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:54.360
<v Speaker 1>So the Quints were born at how many weeks? Twenty

0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:55.600
<v Speaker 1>eight weeks?

0:01:55.640 --> 0:01:58.080
<v Speaker 3>Twenty eight weeks and two days.

0:01:57.720 --> 0:01:59.840
<v Speaker 1>And they spent the first couple of months of their

0:01:59.840 --> 0:02:01.120
<v Speaker 1>life the Niko.

0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:04.200
<v Speaker 3>That's correct, up to three months. We had them come

0:02:04.200 --> 0:02:08.160
<v Speaker 3>home kind of sporadically. So Ava was the last baby

0:02:08.200 --> 0:02:10.600
<v Speaker 3>to come home, and she made it out right at

0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:14.000
<v Speaker 3>the three months mark, So basically on my actual do

0:02:14.200 --> 0:02:16.919
<v Speaker 3>date is when they started really coming home.

0:02:17.560 --> 0:02:20.280
<v Speaker 1>How big was each one of the five babies at birth?

0:02:21.040 --> 0:02:24.880
<v Speaker 3>So they all were pretty equal in size. Hazel was

0:02:24.919 --> 0:02:30.359
<v Speaker 3>the smallest at exactly two pounds, Ava, Riley, and Parker

0:02:30.400 --> 0:02:34.000
<v Speaker 3>were all two pounds four ounces, and Olivia was two

0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:35.600
<v Speaker 3>pounds six ounces.

0:02:35.960 --> 0:02:39.880
<v Speaker 1>Wow, because I've seen pictures of them recently and they

0:02:39.919 --> 0:02:43.120
<v Speaker 1>don't look like they started out that tiny. I gotta

0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:44.880
<v Speaker 1>tell y'all, you would.

0:02:44.680 --> 0:02:47.920
<v Speaker 3>Never even know. It's crazy. I mean, they're actually bigger

0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:52.040
<v Speaker 3>babies and stockier babies and chubber babies than Blake ever.

0:02:51.960 --> 0:02:56.160
<v Speaker 1>One, they do not look like they were fighting for

0:02:56.240 --> 0:03:00.320
<v Speaker 1>their life those first few months. They look so healthy

0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:02.760
<v Speaker 1>and beautiful and for.

0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:05.160
<v Speaker 3>Sure having five little healthy.

0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Babies, Praise God for that.

0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:08.639
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Amen. So Blake is six is she's starting first grade

0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:13.000
<v Speaker 1>next year a second.

0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:15.240
<v Speaker 3>She will be going to first grade. So she just

0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:19.640
<v Speaker 3>graduated from kindergarten a couple of weeks ago, and she

0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:22.880
<v Speaker 3>is a little bit nervous about going to first grade.

0:03:23.560 --> 0:03:26.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, is it hard for her to be away all

0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:29.720
<v Speaker 1>day away from the girls because it looks like she's

0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:32.760
<v Speaker 1>so good. I mean, from what I see, she's an

0:03:32.800 --> 0:03:34.000
<v Speaker 1>incredible big sister.

0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:38.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, she is. She's amazing. I mean, as much as

0:03:38.320 --> 0:03:43.400
<v Speaker 3>she doesn't realize she helps, but she plays with them

0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:46.040
<v Speaker 3>and she interacts with them all the time. But I

0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:49.560
<v Speaker 3>think she's really enjoyed going to school. She's always been

0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:53.440
<v Speaker 3>a child that loves to learn and loves new things

0:03:53.560 --> 0:03:56.600
<v Speaker 3>and learning about new things, and so I think going

0:03:56.640 --> 0:03:59.880
<v Speaker 3>to school really kind of gives her that division of

0:04:00.240 --> 0:04:02.320
<v Speaker 3>you know, just a little bit about it's just Blake

0:04:02.400 --> 0:04:05.120
<v Speaker 3>and it's herself, and it's about Blake when she goes

0:04:05.160 --> 0:04:08.360
<v Speaker 3>to kindergarten, when she goes to school, so she doesn't

0:04:08.400 --> 0:04:11.120
<v Speaker 3>have to share anything. When she's at school, it's all

0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:13.560
<v Speaker 3>for her, you know, along with the other twenty kids

0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:16.120
<v Speaker 3>in her class. But I think she likes that kind

0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:19.840
<v Speaker 3>of you know, she's in the house and it's always

0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:23.359
<v Speaker 3>mommy and Daddy with all six of them and sharing

0:04:23.360 --> 0:04:25.320
<v Speaker 3>this and sharing that. But at school she gets her

0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:28.680
<v Speaker 3>a little bit of individual individuality, so I think she

0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:29.320
<v Speaker 3>enjoys it.

0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Well, it looks like you have been blessed with a wonderful, wonderful, healthy,

0:04:34.040 --> 0:04:38.760
<v Speaker 1>blessed family. But challenging. Oh yeah, challenging.

0:04:39.560 --> 0:04:42.960
<v Speaker 2>It's definitely busy. We never we never stopped.

0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:48.159
<v Speaker 1>So, Adam, what's the most challenging aspect of fatherhood to

0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:51.159
<v Speaker 1>six girls and a wife? So you are not just

0:04:51.240 --> 0:04:55.359
<v Speaker 1>our daughter, you are out out girled the there's just

0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:57.960
<v Speaker 1>too much estrogen going on. Wait a few more years.

0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:00.560
<v Speaker 1>What's the most challenging thing you do with on a

0:05:00.640 --> 0:05:01.520
<v Speaker 1>daily basis?

0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:04.160
<v Speaker 2>At him, I'm the sole breadwinner of the house and

0:05:04.200 --> 0:05:07.400
<v Speaker 2>so i'm you know, I go to work, you know,

0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:10.640
<v Speaker 2>five days a week. You know, most dads, most guys,

0:05:10.800 --> 0:05:12.520
<v Speaker 2>you know, whenever they come home from work, you know,

0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:16.200
<v Speaker 2>you have that time to kind of decompress a little bit.

0:05:16.880 --> 0:05:20.200
<v Speaker 2>And whenever I walk through the door, what you know,

0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:22.400
<v Speaker 2>and thing thing just feed up for me.

0:05:23.160 --> 0:05:25.640
<v Speaker 1>Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy.

0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:29.240
<v Speaker 2>And I mean, for the most part, I mean, I

0:05:29.320 --> 0:05:32.240
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't trade that for anything. I mean, I love walking

0:05:32.279 --> 0:05:35.120
<v Speaker 2>through the door and then just hear hearing the daddy

0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:36.720
<v Speaker 2>and they all come running up to me.

0:05:36.800 --> 0:05:39.960
<v Speaker 3>And stampede of kids. Yeah, I mean.

0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:46.640
<v Speaker 1>There's stampede of adorableness. Oh yeah, Okay, So Danielle, how

0:05:46.640 --> 0:05:48.119
<v Speaker 1>long is your honeydew list?

0:05:50.800 --> 0:05:53.280
<v Speaker 3>You know? I mean, I know, he worked all day

0:05:53.400 --> 0:05:56.000
<v Speaker 3>and he comes home, but the hours when he comes home,

0:05:56.080 --> 0:05:58.680
<v Speaker 3>it's literally the worst hours of the day because it's

0:05:58.680 --> 0:06:01.720
<v Speaker 3>witching hour we call it. And it's the time where

0:06:01.720 --> 0:06:03.719
<v Speaker 3>they're at dinner and they're tired from the day and

0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:06.719
<v Speaker 3>they're getting worn out, and so it's a it's the cranky,

0:06:06.760 --> 0:06:10.280
<v Speaker 3>fussy time. And you know, as long as you can

0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:13.760
<v Speaker 3>help them for hours, you can do whatever you want

0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:15.080
<v Speaker 3>after they.

0:06:14.960 --> 0:06:17.960
<v Speaker 1>Go, after they get out of the tubby and are

0:06:18.000 --> 0:06:20.479
<v Speaker 1>in their little pj's and now all the pictures I

0:06:20.520 --> 0:06:23.680
<v Speaker 1>see online, they're always dressed in cute little matching outfits,

0:06:23.720 --> 0:06:26.240
<v Speaker 1>like adorable matching outfits? Are that?

0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:26.800
<v Speaker 2>Do you?

0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:29.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean, are you really that good at keeping them

0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:31.039
<v Speaker 1>that clean and that cute? Or is that just for

0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:32.040
<v Speaker 1>TV and press?

0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:33.440
<v Speaker 3>No?

0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:38.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm about to be really humbled if your girls,

0:06:38.839 --> 0:06:43.720
<v Speaker 1>Blake and the babies always look that stinking adorable.

0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:49.040
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I do dress them alike most days, just because,

0:06:49.560 --> 0:06:51.960
<v Speaker 3>especially if for going out somewheres, I'm probably gonna make

0:06:52.000 --> 0:06:56.280
<v Speaker 3>them dressed alike because you know, they're unique and they're Quints,

0:06:56.279 --> 0:06:57.919
<v Speaker 3>and it's not something you see every day, and.

0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:02.159
<v Speaker 1>They're the only female Quints I understand in America.

0:07:02.880 --> 0:07:05.760
<v Speaker 3>That's right, So as long as I get to pick

0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:08.719
<v Speaker 3>what they're wearing, I want to make them dress alike.

0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:11.720
<v Speaker 3>It's hard to always find five of the same outfit,

0:07:11.880 --> 0:07:15.600
<v Speaker 3>but it's not out due to for their identical twins

0:07:15.600 --> 0:07:19.440
<v Speaker 3>in the mix and then three for the others. So Blake,

0:07:19.480 --> 0:07:21.680
<v Speaker 3>around three years old kind of started to get a

0:07:21.720 --> 0:07:23.800
<v Speaker 3>little bit more independent on what she wanted to wear.

0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:25.640
<v Speaker 3>And so I know my time's going to be running

0:07:25.640 --> 0:07:27.800
<v Speaker 3>out short when they're going to start getting picky themselves,

0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:29.600
<v Speaker 3>and I don't want to wear that. And I don't

0:07:29.600 --> 0:07:31.800
<v Speaker 3>want to wear that. So right now I still get to,

0:07:32.120 --> 0:07:35.320
<v Speaker 3>you know, be the decision maker of what they're wearing.

0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:37.240
<v Speaker 3>So I'm going to dress them alike and dress them

0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:38.320
<v Speaker 3>chetas for the second.

0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:41.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and another positive of that, you know, because a

0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:43.720
<v Speaker 2>lot of people like will make comments, well why do

0:07:43.720 --> 0:07:45.960
<v Speaker 2>you always dress them alike? And you know, don't you

0:07:46.000 --> 0:07:48.360
<v Speaker 2>want to give them their individuality and stuff like that?

0:07:48.520 --> 0:07:51.160
<v Speaker 2>But I mean, yes we do, but I mean right now,

0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:54.840
<v Speaker 2>they're babies and they don't care. It's easy on us

0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:57.040
<v Speaker 2>if we dress them alike and we're out in public,

0:07:57.160 --> 0:07:59.320
<v Speaker 2>or if we're out our to part and all the

0:07:59.320 --> 0:08:02.160
<v Speaker 2>babies are dress like, it's easy to put your eyes

0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:03.880
<v Speaker 2>on them, you know. If you do a quick scan,

0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:06.400
<v Speaker 2>they're all wearing the same thing. You know, it's so

0:08:06.560 --> 0:08:09.120
<v Speaker 2>much easier to find them. Whenever you're looking for five babies.

0:08:09.240 --> 0:08:12.680
<v Speaker 1>Do you want to know a little secret? What's that

0:08:12.680 --> 0:08:15.920
<v Speaker 1>that applies as they grow? I don't know if you

0:08:15.960 --> 0:08:20.400
<v Speaker 1>guys know this, but I got you beat in the outdoordared.

0:08:21.040 --> 0:08:23.160
<v Speaker 1>I just don't. I just don't have them all in

0:08:23.200 --> 0:08:27.880
<v Speaker 1>the same age you got. I can't imagine what that's like.

0:08:27.920 --> 0:08:32.160
<v Speaker 1>But I am the mother of thirteen children. And when

0:08:32.200 --> 0:08:35.600
<v Speaker 1>we go, you know, to the park or to the zoo,

0:08:35.679 --> 0:08:39.600
<v Speaker 1>or to you know, an outing up until they hit

0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:42.080
<v Speaker 1>about fifteen sixteen, I make them all wear the same

0:08:42.080 --> 0:08:45.599
<v Speaker 1>color T shirts. Yeah, for the same reason, because I

0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:48.920
<v Speaker 1>got to do the quick eye scan.

0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:51.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, exactly.

0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:54.360
<v Speaker 3>Once you three for five four five. Now you feel

0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:55.040
<v Speaker 3>like a lifeguard.

0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:56.319
<v Speaker 2>You're just constantly counting head.

0:08:57.200 --> 0:09:01.080
<v Speaker 1>You are a lifeguard. You are the ultimate lifeguards. The

0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:05.360
<v Speaker 1>Lord has given you some precious, precious little lives to guard.

0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:09.280
<v Speaker 1>And yes, you are the lifeguard, the heart guard, the

0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:12.200
<v Speaker 1>soul guard. You guys are the doorkeepers. And oh I'm

0:09:12.240 --> 0:09:14.160
<v Speaker 1>looking at pictures of them as I talk to you.

0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:18.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh my word, I want to squeeze them.

0:09:19.200 --> 0:09:22.520
<v Speaker 2>Maybe they are beauties, for sure, that's the bad thing.

0:09:22.559 --> 0:09:24.440
<v Speaker 3>They are really cute, so when they get in trouble,

0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:27.240
<v Speaker 3>they love to make these cute little smirks. And you're like,

0:09:27.400 --> 0:09:28.440
<v Speaker 3>don't do that to me.

0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:37.559
<v Speaker 1>So have they got the daddy eyes down, pat.

0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:39.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean it's it's it makes it pretty difficult

0:09:39.559 --> 0:09:39.959
<v Speaker 2>for sure.

0:09:40.320 --> 0:09:51.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So sure, sure you do, Adam, keep telling yourself that. Okay, So,

0:09:51.760 --> 0:09:55.360
<v Speaker 1>of the of the five, who is the one whose

0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:58.960
<v Speaker 1>personality has emerged as the one that is the show

0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:01.640
<v Speaker 1>has the show off gene like I do. Who's the

0:10:01.640 --> 0:10:04.360
<v Speaker 1>one that loves to perform for an audience?

0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:08.240
<v Speaker 2>Hmmm, that's it kind of comes down to two. I

0:10:08.240 --> 0:10:11.080
<v Speaker 2>would say that would be either Riley and she's the

0:10:11.120 --> 0:10:13.559
<v Speaker 2>one that's just constantly demanding attention.

0:10:13.920 --> 0:10:16.800
<v Speaker 3>Riley is an only child in her eyes, so she

0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:20.440
<v Speaker 3>always is the first to need and want people to

0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:21.320
<v Speaker 3>notice her for sure.

0:10:21.520 --> 0:10:24.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, new people walk in the house. I mean, she's

0:10:24.400 --> 0:10:27.280
<v Speaker 2>she's the greeting committee, Like she's the first baby that's

0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:29.319
<v Speaker 2>going to go up and approach them. When the other

0:10:29.360 --> 0:10:33.120
<v Speaker 2>babies are kind of shy and staying back a little bit,

0:10:33.280 --> 0:10:35.760
<v Speaker 2>Riley will just go right at them and just demand

0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:38.800
<v Speaker 2>the attention. But then we also have one of the

0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:41.400
<v Speaker 2>identical twins, Olivia, and.

0:10:41.320 --> 0:10:42.520
<v Speaker 3>She is a little showboat.

0:10:43.000 --> 0:10:44.000
<v Speaker 1>She loves to.

0:10:44.080 --> 0:10:47.920
<v Speaker 2>Just dance and make people laugh, and she just constantly giggling,

0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:52.880
<v Speaker 2>and she he loves people to laugh at her.

0:10:52.960 --> 0:10:53.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:10:53.440 --> 0:10:58.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, okay, So who which one of I should say

0:10:58.200 --> 0:11:02.439
<v Speaker 1>the six because you or Blake could be this. Which

0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:04.839
<v Speaker 1>is the one that is going to be most likely

0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:08.240
<v Speaker 1>to get the first speeding ticket.

0:11:11.040 --> 0:11:16.960
<v Speaker 3>Blake Louise. We always laugh at her because she has

0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:20.679
<v Speaker 3>like the little those little four wheeler power reel whatever

0:11:20.720 --> 0:11:23.480
<v Speaker 3>they are, and she's just always I just imagine her

0:11:23.559 --> 0:11:27.480
<v Speaker 3>when she's fifteen sixteen driving oh care of the world,

0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:30.960
<v Speaker 3>just cruising down and waving, and everybody always like her.

0:11:31.000 --> 0:11:33.080
<v Speaker 3>You gotta wash the road, you gotta look where you going.

0:11:34.120 --> 0:11:35.680
<v Speaker 1>So she's the one that's going to give you a

0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:39.040
<v Speaker 1>heart attack when you two start giving them driving lessons.

0:11:39.320 --> 0:11:41.240
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, I for sure think that's going to be

0:11:41.240 --> 0:11:42.800
<v Speaker 3>Blake out of all six of them.

0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:45.240
<v Speaker 1>Because I'm looking at a picture of them right now

0:11:45.280 --> 0:11:48.160
<v Speaker 1>and they've got little heart shirts on and little polka dots,

0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:50.520
<v Speaker 1>and Blake's behind them, and oh my gosh, she looks

0:11:50.520 --> 0:11:52.199
<v Speaker 1>as sweet as honey, like.

0:11:53.960 --> 0:11:57.560
<v Speaker 3>Blake is a very sweet, innocent, little blessed little soul.

0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:00.320
<v Speaker 1>There, Danielle, How is it you look so good after

0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:02.480
<v Speaker 1>giving birth to that many babies all at once?

0:12:03.280 --> 0:12:06.160
<v Speaker 3>No, I love I love working out, and I love

0:12:06.200 --> 0:12:08.360
<v Speaker 3>fitness that I find time for it. But most of

0:12:08.400 --> 0:12:12.280
<v Speaker 3>my days are filled with fitness activities of chasing kids

0:12:12.320 --> 0:12:15.800
<v Speaker 3>all day, constantly going up and downstairs constantly picking up kids,

0:12:15.840 --> 0:12:21.320
<v Speaker 3>and I'm just from about seven thirty in the morning

0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:25.400
<v Speaker 3>to seven pm. It's just a constant go like all day.

0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:31.240
<v Speaker 1>Well, you look beautiful at how many bedrooms do you

0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:33.679
<v Speaker 1>have now? And how many bedrooms will you have as

0:12:33.720 --> 0:12:34.880
<v Speaker 1>they become teenagers?

0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:38.280
<v Speaker 3>Do you think, Well, we have our house right now

0:12:38.360 --> 0:12:42.560
<v Speaker 3>has five bedrooms, and so Blake has a room. We

0:12:42.640 --> 0:12:45.760
<v Speaker 3>have the identical twins in one room and the other

0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:48.880
<v Speaker 3>three in another room, and so we do have one

0:12:48.960 --> 0:12:52.719
<v Speaker 3>spare room currently. I don't ever envisioning wanting to ever

0:12:52.800 --> 0:12:55.880
<v Speaker 3>move again after we moved into this house, but as

0:12:55.920 --> 0:12:59.000
<v Speaker 3>they get older, I feel that if this house works

0:12:59.000 --> 0:13:02.360
<v Speaker 3>for us, will turn one of the playrooms into another bedroom.

0:13:02.520 --> 0:13:06.800
<v Speaker 3>Somebody will move downstairs in a spare bedroom. But they're

0:13:07.120 --> 0:13:08.720
<v Speaker 3>they're gonna have to share. I mean I had to

0:13:08.720 --> 0:13:10.760
<v Speaker 3>share with my sisters and so I moved out of

0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:13.440
<v Speaker 3>the house, and so I feel like they're just gonna

0:13:13.480 --> 0:13:17.240
<v Speaker 3>have to love each other to share rooms with them.

0:13:17.679 --> 0:13:21.040
<v Speaker 1>Well, I insist that my kids share. I have the option.

0:13:21.200 --> 0:13:23.480
<v Speaker 1>I could, I could move, I could build a bigger house,

0:13:23.480 --> 0:13:26.320
<v Speaker 1>I could add more rooms. I choose not to because

0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:30.760
<v Speaker 1>I think that the life lessons of sharing and being

0:13:30.880 --> 0:13:35.439
<v Speaker 1>close and having intimate relationships is far more valuable than

0:13:35.440 --> 0:13:37.840
<v Speaker 1>the life lesson of being selfish and having a room

0:13:37.880 --> 0:13:38.480
<v Speaker 1>to yourself.

0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:41.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. I grew up with two sisters who are twins,

0:13:42.040 --> 0:13:46.400
<v Speaker 3>and we always pretty much shared a room. And it

0:13:46.440 --> 0:13:48.480
<v Speaker 3>is I mean, we're we're all like best friends. We're

0:13:48.480 --> 0:13:51.040
<v Speaker 3>super close and bonded. And I think it's because though,

0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:52.839
<v Speaker 3>no matter what, if you were mad at each other,

0:13:53.000 --> 0:13:55.240
<v Speaker 3>you still had to talk to each other, and you

0:13:55.280 --> 0:13:57.440
<v Speaker 3>still have to go to a room in bed in

0:13:57.480 --> 0:13:59.600
<v Speaker 3>the same room, and you were going to say good

0:13:59.640 --> 0:14:01.680
<v Speaker 3>night and you're gonna say see you in the morning,

0:14:02.040 --> 0:14:05.360
<v Speaker 3>no matter what. So it does it kind of folds

0:14:05.400 --> 0:14:07.959
<v Speaker 3>in an extra bond that you'll for sure have. Besides,

0:14:08.480 --> 0:14:10.280
<v Speaker 3>you know, you had the option for me to have

0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:12.400
<v Speaker 3>another room and be in the other room because they

0:14:12.400 --> 0:14:15.360
<v Speaker 3>were twins. But yeah, it just kind of gives an

0:14:15.360 --> 0:14:16.360
<v Speaker 3>extra little bond.

0:14:16.960 --> 0:14:20.880
<v Speaker 1>And those bonds will will last a lifetime. I mean. Correct,

0:14:21.240 --> 0:14:24.160
<v Speaker 1>My sister and I shared a room and fought constantly.

0:14:24.360 --> 0:14:27.800
<v Speaker 1>She's my best, best, best, best best friend in the world.

0:14:28.520 --> 0:14:28.720
<v Speaker 3>Yep.

0:14:29.440 --> 0:14:33.080
<v Speaker 1>So and those memories that we forged in that tiny

0:14:33.120 --> 0:14:36.640
<v Speaker 1>little bedroom, you know, make us laugh and smile to

0:14:36.680 --> 0:14:43.320
<v Speaker 1>this day. Yeah, well, I thank you for taking the

0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:45.600
<v Speaker 1>time to talk to us. I thank you for uh

0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:49.960
<v Speaker 1>for just sounding like you got great values and a

0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:54.160
<v Speaker 1>great appreciation for the blessings that the Lord has given you.

0:14:55.000 --> 0:14:55.880
<v Speaker 3>Thank you so much.

0:14:57.280 --> 0:15:02.400
<v Speaker 1>Season three starts this July, and tell me some of

0:15:02.440 --> 0:15:05.480
<v Speaker 1>the fun things that folks can look forward to and

0:15:06.440 --> 0:15:08.280
<v Speaker 1>in your summer, what you're going to be doing with

0:15:08.320 --> 0:15:09.080
<v Speaker 1>the girls.

0:15:09.480 --> 0:15:12.720
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's really it's just a bunch of chaoticness

0:15:12.720 --> 0:15:16.440
<v Speaker 3>because the Quints, you know, Blake start at school, she's

0:15:16.480 --> 0:15:20.080
<v Speaker 3>you know, just finding her little independent self through that,

0:15:20.320 --> 0:15:23.960
<v Speaker 3>and the Quints are hitting the terrible twos, and they've

0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:26.760
<v Speaker 3>hit the terrible twos and they're walking and climbing, and

0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:29.280
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's just a madhouse.

0:15:28.640 --> 0:15:31.920
<v Speaker 1>Of They're right on track. They're right on track, They're

0:15:31.960 --> 0:15:33.160
<v Speaker 1>right where they're supposed to be.

0:15:34.520 --> 0:15:38.160
<v Speaker 2>Definitely keep us on our toes and make we have

0:15:38.200 --> 0:15:41.160
<v Speaker 2>to make sure we have all the TV's bolted down

0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:43.840
<v Speaker 2>and the dresser's bolted to the walls and stuff, because

0:15:44.800 --> 0:15:47.880
<v Speaker 2>if you just step out of the room for any

0:15:48.040 --> 0:15:50.400
<v Speaker 2>length of time and then come back in, they're pretty

0:15:50.440 --> 0:15:53.160
<v Speaker 2>much on top of everything. Like little billy goats.

0:15:52.920 --> 0:15:55.840
<v Speaker 1>So who helps do you have like an auntie, a mom,

0:15:56.000 --> 0:16:00.840
<v Speaker 1>a grandmam, a nanny who's there to into helping hands.

0:16:00.880 --> 0:16:02.520
<v Speaker 1>So when you do step out of the room and

0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:05.880
<v Speaker 1>they do become billy goats, Uh, you don't come back

0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:08.760
<v Speaker 1>to total chaos or is it just just you two?

0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:11.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean my mom. You'll see that. My mom

0:16:12.320 --> 0:16:15.640
<v Speaker 3>moved out on her own and so now it's just

0:16:15.720 --> 0:16:19.480
<v Speaker 3>kind of a tectic full time placement with me in

0:16:19.520 --> 0:16:22.600
<v Speaker 3>there with all the kids. But uh, you know, I

0:16:22.600 --> 0:16:26.320
<v Speaker 3>do wish Adam could be around more, but got to work.

0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:29.000
<v Speaker 3>You've got to provide for us. But you know, we

0:16:29.080 --> 0:16:32.320
<v Speaker 3>do have My sisters are local. They're both in our

0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:35.600
<v Speaker 3>neighborhood and close closely around and so if we ever

0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:38.720
<v Speaker 3>need something, they're definitely hands a phone call away and

0:16:38.800 --> 0:16:40.720
<v Speaker 3>they'll walk down the street. Pretty much.

0:16:40.960 --> 0:16:43.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we've we've been very fortunate to have, you know,

0:16:44.000 --> 0:16:48.680
<v Speaker 2>a very close church family and and there's just some

0:16:48.840 --> 0:16:52.360
<v Speaker 2>ladies that are that are at our church that I mean,

0:16:52.400 --> 0:16:56.440
<v Speaker 2>they they come over, they have like a set a

0:16:56.520 --> 0:16:58.680
<v Speaker 2>set few days that they come over during the week

0:16:58.720 --> 0:17:00.720
<v Speaker 2>and they'll help out for you know, an hour or two.

0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:02.920
<v Speaker 2>So Danielle can kind of take care of and stuff

0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:06.720
<v Speaker 2>and run Maren's or you know, just kind of have

0:17:06.840 --> 0:17:11.840
<v Speaker 2>a little Danielle time. And so we've been very lucky

0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:13.800
<v Speaker 2>to have, you know, people like that in our lives

0:17:13.840 --> 0:17:14.240
<v Speaker 2>as well.

0:17:14.960 --> 0:17:17.119
<v Speaker 1>Danielle, do you ever just feel like escaping to the

0:17:17.160 --> 0:17:19.760
<v Speaker 1>bathroom and locking the door for just two or three minutes?

0:17:20.480 --> 0:17:22.600
<v Speaker 3>Oh? I do it all the time. And then next

0:17:22.640 --> 0:17:25.520
