Las Vegas parents settle into life with 9 children
If you think the holidays around your house can get a little out of control, the Derrico family may put things in perspective for you.
Their Las Vegas residence holds a family of 11, two parents and nine children, featuring a set of three-month-old quintuplets.
It's nothing short of Christmas chaos between all the bottles, books, cribs and diapers, but parents Deon and Evonne Derrico somehow pull it off.
"When I write my book it's going to be titled, 'Do Not Try This At Home'," Evonne Derrico said.
"Personal time, we have given that up," Deon Derrico said.

By Rebecca Dube
Evonne and Deon Derrico always wanted a big family. They got their wish, and then some, when Evonne gave birth to quintuplets last fall (naturally conceived!).
TODAY caught up with little Deniko, Dariz, Deonee, Daician and Daiten, who
are all out of the hospital and settled in to their Las Vegas home. They've
gotten a warm welcome from the Derricos' other children, 8-year-old Darian,
3-year-old Derrick and 2-year-old twins Dallas and Denver. (Names starting
with a "D" are a tradition from Deon's side of the family.)
