I read this book around 2013. Its a YA/tween girl novel about a girl (who I'm almost positive had red hair) and her unruly younger brothers and family. She is somewhat embarassed by her family and is now moving into a new house (that is actually pretty old) during the summer.

Other Details:
-pretty sure the cover shows a worms eye view of two pairs of feet dangling from a platform in the trees
-opening scenes she is tracing over a gravestone in her sketchbook
-family is embarrassing (her mother is pregnant but gets called fat) at a gas station/drive in
-there is some sort of treehouse, platform in the trees where she meets her new friend
(SPOILER) - she is canning tomatoes or something with her mom when her mom's water breaks. Her mom then dies giving birth to younger daughter on main characters birthday
