A family has become a real-life version of the comedy classic Cheaper by the Dozen as they welcomed their 12th child in as many years into the world. In that time Courtney Rogers, 37, has gone no longer than seven months without being pregnant.
She and church pastor husband Chris, 34, welcomed 6lb 12oz Cambria into the world on Monday, March 7. But, while going for a baker’s dozen of children is off the cards for now, Courtney – whose first child, Clint, was born on March 13, 2010 – was determined not to stop until she and Chris had 12 children, like the couple in the movie starring Steve Martin and Kate Baker.
The stay-at-home mum, who lives with Chris and their “perfect family” of six boys and six girls on a 12-acre farm with 140 animals, said: “It does feel special. It is amazing how it worked out too because we had all our boys at the beginning and the last five have been girls, so it all evened out.”
