I am here, been away for awhile....
My boys are 3 years and almost 6 years (July). I too have the Lightning McQueen laundry pile, along with the star wars, Over the Hedge underwear and some scary looking Wiggles boys undershorts (what were they thinking???) I am thinking of buying stock in Lego's - yikes!! Summer will consist of summer play camp, soccer camp and T-ball Camp. Oh yeah, and the all important swimming lessons! Are there any good kids movies coming out this summer?

Hi Michele!
![]() My oldest son wants to watch Wall-E. I haven't checked it out yet. I don't recall when it comes out either, but I do know it's rated G, so he may get to see this one. |

Here. 2 boys: 7 & 19. I am an island of estrogen in a sea of testosterone.
Trucks, legos, dirty socks, and musical instruments everywhere. We've got the Mater underwear instead of Lightning McQueen. I always joke that they can make the house go from clean to choas in 4.9 seconds. Little guy just announced that once he and big bro were all grown up, we'd be 3 daddies and 1 mommy.

Seriously...the orange thing?!?!?!? My little guy's favorite color is orange - I bought him an orange shirt the other day, and I have to peel it off him every night just to throw it in the wash. And if that's not bad enough, my boys decided to share a room, so they can have one bedroom and a play room - I told them they could pick the paint colors for each room - their bedroom is a lightish version of army green and tan with a military vehicle themed border. Their playroom is...you guessed it...bright orange. I mean, primary color, crayola crayon orange. UGH... I am painting my bathroom lavendar. A girls gotta have some semblance of femininity, right? |

Checking in here. My olest is 12, getting ready to start middle school in the fall (7th grade here, for which I was grateful). Youngest is 8 1//2. E has gained so much weight in the last 6 months since coming off all adhd meds that I had to go buy him new underwear. He informed my he was no longer inerested in character underwear - he wanted boxers! Guess that is a true sign of growing up. Now if he could just remember to zip his pants!
By the way, he is totally into orange too. At least 50% of his wardrobe is orange.

Wow. I thought I was the only one with a boy obsessed with orange (Little guy, 7). If it's orange, he LOVES it. Clothes, toys, anything. We even an "ORANGE" party for one of his birthdays.
It's nice to know there are other mom drowning in orange!

My boys are 12 months and 8 months. Honestly, it really scares me when I see other boys out in public. It seems like they're nearly always pummelling each other. Yikes. What have I gotten myself into.

Lol - I've seen the same thing... Mine are 4 1/2 and 6 1/2 and I have to say that although there are the occasional walk bys where one will kick the other or flick his head, they really are few and far between. They are GREAT to each other... Now the other day, we went to AJ's firstmoms house and she has a 19 month old. This kid would walk up to my boys and kick, punch, pull hair, bite...ugh...my kids spent the entire time either on my lap trying to crawl to the highest point of me, or in the fetal position on the floor. When we came home, my neighbor said "So what do you think? Should your mom and dad have another baby?" He shuddered and said "I've got all the brothers I can handle". Lol. Poor kids |

My boys do wrestle quite a bit. It starts off innocent enough, but then someone usually gets mad, or hurt. They are full of energy, but a lot of fun, too. |

I only have 1 (so far) and he's not yet 2 so the pummeling isn't there yet, Ohhh looking for to that. lol I hope for the childs sake the next on is a boy! I was the 2nd child with an older brother and I was the one that got pummeled!
But my thing is the RUNNING! I mean he NEVER walks, he has to run, his out of controll run, everywhere. Even if he only has 5 feet to go! And he is such a klutz, the bumps, bruises and road rash that are purely self enflicted because of the running is insane! Do they ever learn to walk?

So far, my boys haven't learned to walk. When I tell my 3 year old to walk, he skips!
