Guest guest Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 My is one of the others who have a march birthday. He just turned 16 on the 19th. He spent the day in at government house receiving his queens venturer award from the lieutenant governor of British Columbia. Quite an honor that not many boys achieve. He is a great kid and I look forward to watching him develop into an amazing man.

Congrats on your twins. It's definitely a lot to think about, but just like and Irene said, just give them your love right now and things will all fall into place after you get into a better routine. Mabel, Happy belated b-day to Carolina, Cristian and a. I think someone else has March b-days as well. , they are growing up so fast. I really like this age. they can do so much for themselves. I do have to say that our still needs to be watched for the majority of the time. She is quiet and fast and you just have to peek around corners or check on her all the time. I just don't think that will ever change honestly. Hopefully a little less of it, but not now. My parents and my husband's mom just can't keep up with her. I could never have them watch the kids for an entire weekend or anything like that. I would ask our former Nanny before them. She is like family yet. Hope to actually have her take them sometime in the near future so Tom and I could get away for a weekend. He has a friend in ton and we'd love to visit there.

Guest guest Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Kay, I feel that my Zack requires more care still, but to the parents of the little ones it's way better. Zack will watch videos for hours (if we let him). He logs on to miniclip.com and plays online games, he amuses himself with handheld games like Spiderman on his brother's Nintendo DS, he is into drawing maps and treasure hunts. So I have to know where he is at all times, but most of the time where he is and what he is doing is FINE!!! Big difference from years gone by. Since he has matured alot his isblings include him in their outdoor games and sports which gives me long breaks. So as the mom of an almost 10 year old I can now do a few things I want to do and have no interruptions, I never thought that day would come. Zack doesn't even want my help with his evening bath or shower, he shampoos, brushes and does his dental rinse alone so keep the faith. Irene kids Welcome . Congrats on your twins.
