Becki Dilley may not be a celebumom, but giving birth to sextuplets in 1993 certainly gave her supermom status.

Becki and her husband Keith's six children, Adrian, Claire, Quinn, Ian, Brenna and Julian, now 14, are full-swing into their teenage years, making the house somewhat calmer for mom and dad. "Keith and I find ourselves alone a lot," Becki told ABC News. "We come home, it's like, 'Where is everybody??

Though, all is hardly quiet on the Dilley front. Instead of frequent diaper changes, feedings, and games of hide-and-seek, Becki and Keith shuttle their kids to school, to extracurricular and social activities, and they supervise everything from dating to make-up and shaving tips.

The Dilley kids are the first set of surviving sextuplets and were born healthy, despite being born earlier than 30 weeks. The children are blessings to Becki and Keith, who had tried to conceive for a year before a doctor told them their chances of having a baby together were slim. Becki decided to take Pergonal, a powerful fertility drug, and voila??six bundles of joy!

Despite the hectic nature of their household, Becki told ABC news that she has no regrets about having her brood all at the same time. "I like having them all at once," Becki said. "The only thing is they're growing up so quickly. So, you kind of just feel like there's this little clock ticking down all the time."

To see the Dilley brood today, check out these videos from ABC News:
