Mike Mayham, Father:

An easygoing, blue-collar factory worker and sports nut, easily mystified by life in general and females in particular, an irony since he has five daughters. Did we mention that he is a sports nut?
Kathy Mayham, Mother:

The glue that stirs the drink, or something like that. A stay-at-home mom who handles the stresses of managing a large family with aplomb, apart from the times she cracks up.
Daughter#1, Nicole:

14 going on 24, knows everything there is to know about life and the proper application of make-up. Occasionally caught playing with Barbies.
Daughter#2, Louise:

12 years old and loving it. Resident animal nut and nature girl, her bedroom is a verdant menagerie which Mike will not enter without a guide and a machete.
Daughter#3, Michelle:

10 years old. A puzzle to Mike and Kathy as she appears to be very smart. Fascinated by quantum mechanics and Pokemon. Interested in studing nuclear physics, a concern since she tends to be a little accident prone.
Daughter#4, Danielle:

7 years old. Artistic. Usally found somewhere happy in la-la land with her imaginary friends. Mike won't go there since a lot of these friends tend to be dinosaurs.
Daughter#5, Marie:

2 years old. Enough said?
The Dog, Rocky:

A pedigreed, purebred knucklehead. Enjoys sleeping, eating and fetching, although not retrieving. Habitually chases cars, sometimes even moving ones. Occationally acts as a scratching post for the cat.
The cat, Chester:

Sophisticated, somewhat pompous, superior in every way. Tolerates the humans because they feed him. Tolerates the dog because (see above).
