Okies – so this morning we’re getting ready for church and Dad was not about to take boys to church that looked liked they had hedgehogs for hats. Mum get’s called in to sorta sort things out and realizes that she has to reach ‘up’ to get to the top of Sean’s head… Ethan is no slouch either (and they are NOT ALLOWED to slouch!) Where did my bitty babies go??? They’ve turned into some very ‘stringy’, string beans!!! The biggest problem is keeping the girls away – I need to go find my rifle… 😆

Hahah!! We took a holiday picture by the tree and I noticed my ten year old is up past my shoulder. He is probably gonna pass me in 2010. Star’s boy is grown! He was a little teeny bopper when I 1st joined the forum. They grow up so fast and so BIG!
Just measured Tristen…he’s going to be 18 months old on Dec 27th. He’s grown almost 4 inches in 6 months?! 😮 What happened to my little baby!? And why do they all feel the need to grow up so quick?

Years and years ago [here I go dating myself again] there was Kodiak commerical and the tune I think was ‘Turn Around’. It showed a picture of a little baby and the beginning lyrics were ‘Where are you going my little one, little one’ and each time the singer said ‘Turn Around’ the baby grew into a toddler, into a young child, into a teenager, a lovely young lady, getting married and having her first baby! Sometimes that’s how I feel about how some of these kids grow–they just ‘turn around’ and they’re taller than you. Time just flies by and I agree–they grow up so fast–you wonder what happened to that ‘little one’.
Stop feeding ’em. Only solution. And it’ll keep the girls away too!
Though… I tried with my “grande asperge” (it just don’t translate well, ya know?) and she keeps picking open the lock on the fridge.

Hahhaa!!! Good one.
Funny story at work; (im breastfeeding… relavent to the story) I was getting ready to go to lunch and mentioned to Wynter that I had to go home to feed the baby. He said, ” You have to feed them?” We all just looked at him and one of my co workers said, “Yes, Wynter… they have to eat.” English is Wynters second language… hes from some Island…so its even funnier with his accent. I laughed and kinda pointed to my boobs. He was wondering why me, personally, had to go home to feed her, but the language barrier kinda messed him up.

And here I thought all I needed to do was water my baby… you learn something new every day!

http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htm😆 😆 😆 They must have ‘hollow legs’, as my gra’ma would say 😆 😆 😆 I’m about to the point of backing up a semi at Costco – You feed them, stuff them ’til they can’t hold any more (so you think) and as you’re clearing up from the meal they want to know what there is to eat… Oy… Hollow legs – never fill up, always hungry… Giving mum a complex that she’s not doing her ‘job’ right 😆

Nope, sounds normal to me! I know others who have teenage boys who eat and eat and eat and they’re skinny as a rail! I’m so jealous–I just get a whiff of a potatoe chip and I puff up like a puffer fish! Might as well get that semi to Costco! 😆
Y’all sound like my Mom who insists on calling all five of her kids babies though half of ’em are all growed up and four of ’em are taller than her.
Silly, I know — it must be a ‘mum’ thing… I am 45 years old, married, with 14 year old boys and my dad still calls me his ‘pretty girl’ 😀 and occasionally my mum INSISTS that at least once during most visits each of her all grown, married, parenting children sit on her lap in the rocking chair and let’s us have a moment or two of just being ‘her babies’ while she rocks us. Naturally we protest “we don’t want to squish you!’ but in the end she always gets her way 😀 Sometimes it’s really strange to glimpse myself in a store window reflection or a stray mirror. I think ‘Oh my goodness! What’s mum doing here?’ then i realize it’s me… Lucky I’ve got such a wonderful mum and dad, but we kids do tease them horribly – they always said as we were growing up that they hoped we would ‘turn out better than them’ – Yeah, right! Set us up for failure! 😀 The funny thing is, if you ask my husband who loves him best, first words out of his mouth without a seconds hesitation is ‘Your Mother’ 😀

I know what you mean about the window reflection. I do that all the time. And the boys growing, my “baby” age 18, grew 13 inches in one year 😮 Hubby and I had the same conversation nearly every Sunday. “Why can’t you keep that boy in decent pants?” “I just bought those last week!” 😀 He is now 6’2″ and still growing. Also the tallest one in our family
