Mom delivers 16th child, thinking of more

The Learning Channel is doing another show about the family's construction project, a 7,000-square foot house that should be finished before Christmas. The home, which the family has been building for two years, will have nine bathrooms, dormitory-style bedrooms for the girls and boys, a commercial kitchen, four washing machines and four dryers.

With a family of 18 people you could:

• Form 9 teams of doubles for a volleyball, ping pong, or tennis tournament
  
• Form 3 teams of 6 people and play a basketball tournament
• Form 2 hockey teams - each with 6 players on the ice and 3 substitutes
  
• Form 1 hurling team with 15 players on the field and 3 substitutes

You would need more than a minivan...you'd need a bus or an 18 passenger hummer limo.

Every meal would be like Thanksgiving.
