My name is Taylor Bishop. I am almost 29 years old, engaged and a mother to two girls and three bonus children.
My fiancé is Jesse Hounslow, we have been together for one year and 9 months. He proposed to me while playing the song Tennessee Whiskey by Chris Stapleton. We were sitting in the kitchen just finishing up dinner and I still had cheese on my fingers from eating doritos (which made it more interesting). I was also seven months pregnant at the time with our daughter.
When we got together, I had one child and he had three. We have two kids that are only nine months apart. My oldest is Adalynn; she was born on Halloween in 2014. His oldest is Cameron; he was born in July 2015. Then he has two others, Rebecca born in December of 2017; and Lucas born in June of 2020. We recently had a baby girl named Anastasia in April of 2022. We have Cameron, Rebecca, and Lucas every other week. When we don't have the kids, Jesse goes to work as a truck driver and I'm a stay-at home mom.
When it's just me and my girls, my day consists of waking up at 7:20am to get her ready for school. Then watch her go to the bus stop until it gets there to pick her up. Then I make my youngest a bottle and do a diaper change. I lay down with her and watch tv for awhile and we take a nap together. I then let her play on the living room floor with toys; she ends up rolling around everywhere. I do some stuff around the house while she does that. My daughter gets home from school after four and she spends some time with her little sister. We have a snack and she plays for awhile, then we have dinner and get ready for bed. I watch Monday Night Raw and Friday Night Smackdown every week.
When we are all home, I get up at 7:20am to get the oldest two of the five ready for school. The other kids tend to wake up around the same time that the kids start getting ready. I watch them at the bus stop until they get picked up. Sometimes I can go back to sleep with the baby, but most of the time we get the kids ready and go to town. Whether it's just to go to the bank and get us out of the house or to have lunch and do some shopping. Then the kids get home from school and they play outside, watch TV or play in the play room. I cook dinner and they all eat and get ready for bed.
That's typically what I do on a normal day. We try to have as much fun with all the kids as we can.
