Janelle and Christine were always the married couple.

From the book, “becoming sisterwives”

Christine: Over the years, Janelle and I have developed a symbiotic relationship in which we naturally gravitate toward helping each other out. She works and I take care of the house and kids. In Utah, we either did our shopping together or I’d pick up stuff for her or she’d do the same for me. If I was cooking dinner for her kids and didn’t have something, I felt comfortable raiding her fridge or cabinets for what I needed

Looking into the future, I would like to move back into a house with a sister wife. I miss the communal aspect of our plural lifestyle. Recently, Janelle and I have been looking at houses together. We are a good team. She is practical and can take care of the finance, administration, and bills, while I can take care of cooking, cleaning, and crafts. Our two groups of six children are all close in age and would absolutely love to be under one roof again. The only foreseeable problem we are facing is that we need a house with at least nine bedrooms—a mansion, really! But somehow we will make it work. It helps that both Robyn and Meri like having their own space, and prefer to have their own houses.

From janelle: Christine and I especially worked together and helped each other out financially as well as with meals and errands. When we lived in the big house, Christine and I usually did the bulk of our shopping together. It just made sense. Our kids are the same ages and like to eat the same things. On the days I was working, Christine usually made dinner for both my kids and her own. However, on days that I didn’t work, I usually cooked for my kids alone.

I never realized they wanted to live together in Las Vegas… man I wish that would have happened!!!
