The more the merrier! Christina Anstead took to Instagram on Thursday, February 20, to share a rare photo with husband Ant Anstead and all their kids.

“When trying to pose with seven and a dog, this is a win,” she captioned the sweet snap. “Crazy chaos, but wouldn’t have it any other way.” The family pic included Hudson, whom the couple welcomed in September 2019, Taylor and Brayden, whom Christina shares with ex-husband Tarek El Moussa and Ant’s kids — Archie and Amelie, whom he shares with ex-wife Louise Anstead.

Hanging out together is something the blended family regularly does. In August, Christina and Ant took the children to CircusTrix, which is an indoor trampoline and extreme recreation park. The mom of three documented the day on Instagram, and by the look of it, everyone had a blast.

While it may not always be easy to be part of a blended family, Christina makes it look like a walk in the park. In December 2019, the Christina on the Coast star, Tarek and their families attended Taylor’s school play, proving to all the naysayers that it is possible to get along with your ex and their relatives.

“Tay’s Christmas performance was sooo cute!” Christina captioned an Insta pic at the time. “Glad my dad got to come, too. We all sat together — my family and Tarek’s family. A couple people acknowledged how nice this is — I know there are a lot of divorced couples (including Tarek’s mom and dad) who do this, too, and it’s honestly easier for everyone. Plus, Taylor’s face lights up when she sees us all in the same row supporting her.”

It helps that the Flip or Flop stars are on the same page when it comes to coparenting. So what does that consist of? “There’s only one tip that people need to remember: The kids are first. Like, that’s it, you know?” Tarek exclusively told Life & Style in September 2019. That’s some sound advice!
