Living Arrangements for the Kids
With eight kids in the house, sharing is something that goes without saying. Better Homes and Gardens presented the McCaughey kids’ rooms in their magazine, showing just how their living arrangements work. The rooms were designed by designer Jodi Mensing, who opted for colorful patterns to suit the gender and taste of each of the kids.

According to the magazine, Alexis, Kelsey, and Natalie, the three septuplet sisters, shared a large room with three beautiful lilac twin beds. A touch of cottage charm was achieved with the help of delicate florals, stripes, and dots. The girls’ room also featured a wicker play table and bench set for the sisters to read and play. Mikayla’s room featured a pretty magenta canopy, a pink chair, and a dressing to match her outgoing personality. On the boys’ side, a pirate-themed room with storage drawers below the deck and ship like beds made their childhood an adventure.
