From squishing into the Suburban every Sunday morning for church, to never being able to decide on a movie for family movie night, and all the craziness and dysfunctions between. Here’s to never having a dull moment and all the quirks of being raised with multiple siblings.

1. Your wardrobe always consists of hand-me-down clothes.

2. If you weren’t one of the first ones to take a shower in the morning you knew you had a cold and short shower awaiting.

3. After grocery shopping there are never “good” foods in your house because all of the sweets are gone in the first day.

4. Since everyone goes for the sweets you know you can find that one sibling hiding the good stuff.

5. Whenever you go on a road trip you always wait in the jam-packed car for at least twenty-five minutes for your mom.

6. The eldest siblings ALWAYS gets shot gun and you learn to respect that rule.

7. Since you have so many siblings there is always someone to do activities with.

8. You can never go anywhere in public with the entire family because, to be honest, it turns into a complete sh*t show.

9. Especially at the grocery store.

10. If someone is dating your sibling they are dating the entire family.

11. At one time, there was one kid in every school system from grade school to college… crazy amount of tuition (I don't know how you do it mom and dad).

12. When you go to family parties you have to make sure the rest of the extended family ate because once you guys get in line there's no going back…every piece of food suddenly disappears.

13. You guys are way too open with each other and most people find it, to some extent, weird and creepy.

14. But you don't mind because you are 110% of your goofy self around them.

15. Taking a Christmas picture was stressful and took 400 snaps because there was always one person flinching, not looking or making a silly face.

16. You guys pick out each other flaws 24/7 but don’t worry you're able to take it and dish it back just as hard.

17. Growing up there were always neighbors and your siblings’ friends in and out of the house.

18. Your parents call you every one of your siblings' names before getting it right.

19. When you are all together you can’t hear a thing because everyone is always trying to talk over each other.

20. Because of all the your siblings’ practices, clubs, lessons, etc. it was a strange occurrence to be on time and your parents forgot about you at least once or twice.

21. You learn to sleep through any type of commotion.

22. There’s that one sibling who is always innocent during any argument or fight (that was always me hehehe).

23. And fights can get pretty ugly… you see that string cheese on the counter, you’ll grab it and let the other sibling know you aren’t afraid to use it as a weapon.

24. As you grow up you learn that those stupid fights mean nothing now and you realize your siblings are your closest best friends.

25. Because I mean those crazy and sometimes embarrassing sisters and brothers of yours are your people and you wouldn’t want it any other way.
