I don't know if anyone else does this but sometimes I look at Dalton and think about how he will be when he is older. How he will do in school, what kid of job he might have, etc. . .

Do you guys think of things like that?

What do you see them doing in the future?

I always do that. We did that all the time at school in early childhood education class we had preschoolers and we would always try and figure out who would grow up to be what. I cant wait to watch my kids grow up.

I DO think about this. A LOT!

I think, man one day J is going to be 5!(he just made 3). And then he'll be 10, and in school, with his own personality.

Oni's gonna be 5 one day too!!! My GOD.

I have NO idea what Oni & Nya will do later in life. I'mhoping they start working at 16! LOL!

it's really hard for me. i try to picture finn as an 8-year-old or a teenager and i just can't see it. i hope he does well in school and we would love it if he played baseball (though with his legs he'd be better suited for football!).

i just hope my kids have a happy and healthy childhood, and that i mold and shape them to the best of my ability.

Because I've seen the whole process through till adulthood, I can honestly tell you that my son did NOT do a single thing I expected of him when he was young. He did his own thing and made his own way. I'm so proud of him.

I see Alyvia as being fiesty and popular! And she'll almost definitely be a dancer. She has the body type for a dancer, and she loves to groove to music!

jason says joseph will join the army, i think josephs soo smart and bright, he will be a leader, elementary school he might bully i think lol, but who knows, jordynne is alil drama queen and likes to get her own way, she isnt afraid to take stuff from joseph if she wants it, if he trys to take something from her she hits his hand away. Jordynne is a petite lil girl i dunno why she eats more then joseph alot of the time but the pediatrician is worried cuz she has been losing weight but she has only been on regular food for not quite 2 mths yet and being mobile on top of that as well so who knows, shes just a cute lil thing with an atitude lol.

Nathan is gonna be a heartthrob. He has huge brown eyes, and blonde hair. i hope that he is a Engineer, or something like that. I want him to be successful and not have to worry about money ever. Nicolas is only 5 weeks old, but I think he will resemble Nathan alot. Again, I hope he makes alots of mulah. Then again what mother wouldn;t want that for there babies!!??

Here is another take on this question, how different are your kids than you were at their age? Are they different or similar to what you imagined your kids to be like before you had them?

My DD is completely different than I was, and completely different from what I imagined before I had her, lol!

I think joseph will turn out to be a sweet boy, he always looks out for his sister, he asked for apoptart and then wanted another one and i hesitated but then gave him another one and he gave it to his sister. Sometimes though he makes sure she isnt doing bad, he will tell her she gets pow pows for being bad lol. I think he will be a good big brother and always look out for jordynne when they are older, gah i catn wait fo rthem to grow up!

I can't even imagine Rowan being 2, let alone what she will be like when she grows up.

It feels like she will be my baby, like she is now, forever.

Then again, I can't even imagine myself being 20, and that's about a year and 4 months away. Rowan will be 2 and a half then. I can't even imagine that, it feels like it will never happen.

I guess I hope she's into art and music, like I was/am. I hope she likes to read. But whatever she does, I mostly just hope she's happy.

When Jayden was a baby and toddler I sometimes thought about him getting older but couldnt imagine it AT ALL! Its like you see them toddling around and you just cant picture them EVER reaching 5yrs old, going to school, growing up etc.

But here we are, a few years later and Jay will be 5 this weekend! Shocked Very Happy Hes in fulltime school, reading, spelling, doing homework, gets dressed all by himself etc it seems amazing! lol Hes popular in school, I go on all the school trips and see some of them usually arguing over who gets to be jays partner (they pair up).

1, 2, 3, 4 ages still seem like they are really small, but 5 feels like a really major birthday to me, I keep saying I cant believe hes going to be 5!

I love him getting older though, I dont want it to go too quick and it doesnt seem to be...I think thats because ive been a stay at home mum so I havent missed *anything* and we are together all the time when hes home. Smile Hes so much fun at this age, we play board games, card games, video/pc games, mess around on the piano, go on bike rides, draw, colour in, read books together etc, its a really enjoyable age! He comes out with all these questions about stuff, and never stops talking to us all Smile I love my boy!! yes
