I have two daughters. My 3 year old told me I was getting chunky... =-( But now I am on the right course. She in courages me to work out. Telling me "Get it Mommy!" My one year old just looks at me with this look that says I'm not sure bout you people then smiles so sweetly at us. lol Both my girls love fruit. And vegs are never a problem in this house. (Except for getting my husband to eat them. lol) Oh yeah!! My three year old can do 7 pull ups, with just a hardly any help and loves to do crunches with mommy.0

My fuzzy kids are the best!!!!! And no crying!
Winner!! :drinker:0 -
My daughter is 5, and we just got her registered to start kindergarten later this month. She's a whiz at solving puzzles and has a massively awesome memory (when she wants to lol). And she's got the most gorgeous hair.
My son is three weeks away from two years old. He's trying to potty train, eats like a horse and has sooooo many words and phrases coming out. He says "Thank you" all the time. He's way too strong for his own good, though. His fluffy (HUGE) head of curls makes you forget he's an evil little turd, sometimes.0 -
My 12 yo will eat anything, even all the healthy stuff. He is an awesome goal keeper in soccer, is the largest kid on the team and one of the fastest as well. He can beat some of the older kids in wrestling practice. He hit a home run in the championship baseball game. He just started running on his own this last week - 1.5 miles every morning and he is lifting weights with dad. While he likes to spend a lot of his time inside playing games and watching TV, he is an awesome athlete and loves being outside.
My 9 yo is a bit pickier when it comes to eating, but he will try everything. He is an even better athlete than his older brother (it probably helps that he has no fear of anything). This one will not sit still for 15 minutes, he is always outside playing. This winter was his first time snow skiing and by the 3rd day on the mountain he was already going over jumps and landing them. He mastered snow boarding in one day.
My 5 yo is following in big brother's foot steps. He plays soccer, wrestles, and plays baseball, also. He hit the ball further than anyone else on his team this summer. He is the most coordinated one on his soccer team. And he never gives up, ever!
The baby is already kicking soccer balls all over the place. Actually if it's a ball, he's kicking it no matter what kind. He hits the t-ball of the tee all day long. He's going to be bigger and faster than his oldest brother.
I have a bunch of great athletes, but best of all, they all love mom, even though they spend most of their time with dad (SAHD).0 -
My 10 year old daughter is incredibly gifted in Fashion designing as well as singing. she is a fantastic student makes all A's and B's. She is in 4H her leader is encouraging her in her talents as am I. on the 18th she turns 10 years old that is the age she has more opportunites open to her in 4h to do fashion design and singing. the more involved she is she can get a scholarship for it.
she made the top 10 in the school talent show (out of the whole school) and also the top 5 in the talent show. she was competting againist 11th graders. one of the youngest who made it.0 -
My son put on his sun glasses this morning and his hair was all shaggy, he looked like Bruce Lee.0

My 3 year old rides a two wheel bike (his first unassisted ride was the week before his birthday, though :P) he also climbs trees better than monkeys, no joke. Found him a good 45 feet up the one in the backyard last week. He loves oatmeal and spinach though the one time I combined them, per his request, he was darn convinced I wasn't being honest about what was in his bowl.0

My 11 yr old just had 7 sacks and 3 forced fumbles in his first game this season.
My 6 yr old is so smart he makes me feel really dumb.0 -
I love this topic
My 3 year old (just barely turned 3) is a genius. She knows how to read pretty much any 3 and four letter word, plus some others; she can tell time, and she can do simple addition and subtraction. She adores reading and begs for reading time. She memorizes songs after hearing them once and will sing along with pop songs on the radio (so cute).
My 7 year old is a little ball of energy, but is also the most affectionate child I have ever heard of. He still insists on giving mom a kiss good bye at the bus stop, and he is never unhappy to see me, even if it means he has to come home from a party or somewhere fun. He is a yellow belt in karate, and he ran an entire 5k last year with me. He does not throw tantrums, and never has. He is very obedient and polite, but also has a silly side. He just finished reading the Harry Potter books and is working on the Hobbit. I love raising enthusiastic readers 0 -
My 6 year old son eats more fruit than I even looked at when I was his age... He's ahead with his reading/writing, so much so that his dad (with whom he has little contact with) thought I had written messages sent to him when it was infact my son. He's just that good... He calls me Ma :grumble: ... His manners are PERFECT outside the house :huh: 0

My 17 year old son the baseball player and golfer, and my 12 year old daughter the soccer player. Both are full of energy and inspiring! 0

My son is amazing. He's 14 years old and when he was in the 6th grade he was told by a coach that he was too small to play football and that he should just go find something else to do. This broke his heart because all he had ever wanted to do was play football. We moved at the end of the 6th grade and I conviced him to try out again at his new school. He made the team and is now a wide reciever for his high school 9th grade team. I feel like if he is brave enough to try again the least I can do is be brave enough to get out there and run.0

What a great topic! Love it.
My 15 yr old daughter amazes me. She was born at 2lbs 11 ozs and still is small. She weighs in at 96 lbs now. She holds the most pull ups for a girl in both the high school and middle school in our area. She runs cross country and is my biggest supporter.
My 7 yr old son is borderline genius. (don't know where he got it from ) She reads science encyclopedias for fun. He wants to be a microbiologist. He is serious most of the time, but has a unique sense of humor. He is my best cuddlier.
My 5 yr old son is getting ready to start kindergarten. He is funny and all boy. He is a dare devil. He does everything he can to get his brother going. He tells me I have chubby cheeks, but in a cute way. He takes like Alvin from the chipmunks.
Thanks for letting me share 0 -
We have two sons. They are 4 years and 18 months old repsectively. They are awesome boys.
Both of them love broccoli.
Both of them love fish.
Both of them love fruits.
The oldest likes to exercise with us when we do insanity.
Whenever I do pull-ups, my oldest asks me to put him up on the pull-up bar when I am done.
They have to be a couple of the funniest kids I have ever met. Both of them are very bright children as well. I am constantly amazed at the things their little minds can comprehend. I adore them both greatly.0 -
My 11 year old son takes Tae Kwon Do at the same school that I go to, and my 7 year old daughter is in her 4th year of dance, and will possibly go to the advanced class after a few classes.0

My step-daughter is 13, and she is working so hard at making better food choices. She exercises daily, and since she made her middle school volleyball team, she's been getting in my car sweaty and red-faced when I pick her up and has so many stories to tell about different challenges they did. I know she's giving it her best effort! She also plays travel softball so has practice 2-3 times a week and a few tournaments a month.
My almost 4-year-old little girl's favorite snack is GREEN PEPPERS. That's right. Green peppers. She also loves the dinners that I make, even though she says she wants pizza whenever I ask her what she wants. She would prefer apples over French fries and loves all kinds of fruits, vegetables, and salads! She amazes me. She is looking forward to starting a gymnastics class in the Fall.
My 19-month-old little boy is PICKY. He eats when he wants. I know he eats well at school, so I don't stress too much about how he eats when he's with me. However, he does love fruit. AND, I kid you not, that boy has been throwing a ball up in the air and catching it since he was 9 months old. He started hitting a ball out of our hands when he was 10 months old and literally takes about 100-200 swings a day! His first word was "ball", and I worry that he's never going to learn a lot of new words because that's all he ever says. Haha. We're counting on him being in the Majors. 0 -
My daughter is the nurturer and mother hen....she's the child that goes into a classroom and makes friends with everyone on a quiet level...she's not the flashy popular child, she's the quiet happy, fun loving child that makes sure there's no child left behind...
I admire and adore her for that...if a child is being bullied, ostracized or mistreated...she's their bestie.
She's so strong and mature...she handles her father's inability with amazing strength and fortitude that breaks my heart...
and she's a beautiful, happy, fun loving child with patience that is amazing...
She's creative, a dancer, a yogist, a painter and writer...she's currently in a poetic phase, tripping out poems of such knowledge it amazes me...
ok..i think it's obvious...i LOVE her so much.0 -
I HAVE 4 AWESOME BOYS!!!!!
Our 17yr old graduated high school in May and will be going to college in a few days!!!! He has ADHD and highly gifted. He makes his own bio-fuel with diesel and vegetable oil to use in his pressure washers and lawn care equipment. He will be going to college in petroleum and alternative fuel chemistry. He wants to save the planet one car at a time. Too bad my Hubby works for BP cause we're in a conflict of interests here. He also scored a 35 on the ACT after pulling an all nighter at the hospital with his cousin battling cancer who died while he was at the ACT testing. He is still heartbroken and gulity for leaving his side.
Our 5yr old thinks he's BATMAN and wears his costume everywhere we go! He'll walk into a Walmart or Target or Lowe's and say, "Ok People this store is safe! I'm Batman and there are no criminals in this store!!!"
Our 3yr old he's a little on the wild side, we think he's autistic and waiting for the results from the testing last week to confirm that. He's very very hyper and musically inclined. He beats on everything with his finger tips or hands. He sings instead of talks and hums constantly the Polar Express soundtrack. And we have just discovered yesterday he can catch a fish with his bare hands.
Our 1yr old is such a goof ball all he does is laugh and tries to keep up with his brothers. He likes to hug, kiss and cuddle!
LOVE EVERYONE'S VIEWS ON THEIR CHILDREN!!! Keep up all that great work you guys are doing with them! 0 -
Wish I could post pictures from iPhone! I have 3 kids, 1 girl 14 and 2 boys 8 &2. My two oldest have both been on honor roll since kindergarten. They are so smart, my 8 year old is at a 9th grade reading level. My daughter is into every sport there is and try's out for them all. My 2 year old is full of energy and is into everything. He's so curious about everything. He loves to do puzzles. Because of him I can also recite Diary of a Wimpy Kid lol. Seem both movies like 100 times! I'm very proud of all 3 of my babies!0

I have 5 to brag on.
My 24 year old is learning some important life lessons, finally. (some take longer to grow up than others)
My 22 year old married last December, and while he's a whiz, his wife totally blows him away in the brains department. He's studying to be a game designer (he's making some on his own already) and she is still deciding, although she already has 3 Bachelors and a Masters Degree. :-)
My 20 year old, who turned 20 today, is my most affectionate, thoughtful, and inspiring child of the bunch. He starts his second year of study for a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering in about 2 weeks, and is working a part time summer job this summer. He had to go out and try hard for a full month before he landed a job, and he never complains about the hard work he has to do, either.
My 17 year old has 1 year of high school left. He has his future planned out and is signed up for early entry into the Navy to be a Navy nuclear operator. He went from us worrying about his dedication to his grades back in 9th and 10th grade to really improving his grades and getting his act together.
My 14 year old only daughter is becoming quite the artist. She also loves to eat healthy food!0 -
My kids are technically adults, and my husband thinks I shouldn't refer to them as "kids", but they'll always be my kids, no matter how old they are.
My 24-year-old son is a musical whiz. He's a great drummer and loves composing music. My 21-year-old daughter applied for a college scholarship that I personally thought she'd never stand a chance of being awarded. She proved me wrong, and has had her tuition paid in full since her sophomore year, and she'll graduate this coming December after just 3.5 years in college.0 -
I have three daughters. The oldest is in the running for Playmate of the Year, the middle girl just went viral on a Bully Beatdown follow-up and the youngest just became a featured dancer at the Gentleman's Club that me and my buddies frequent.0

You must be a proud papa!!! Congrats!!!0 -
My 3 year old son also does 30DS with me. He can actually bust a push up far better than me. He does Zumba, too and at the end of every song he'll give me a big round of applause. He's become ridiculously affectionate and constantly wants "Mama kissies".
He has problems with articulation (his tongue is too wide for his mouth) that cause him to not be able to pronounce about half the letter sounds in the alphabet. He works hard every day to learn new words, and has even made up his own sign language that has his docter astounded. Luckily, he'll grow out of it by the time he's five and it has in now way impacted his learning.
I know everyone says their kid is smart, but AJ is kinda ridiculous. By age 2, he figured out how to pick the lock on the bathroom door, and childproofing was a joke by 9 months.
Oh, he can also bust a move better than any kid I've seen. He can find the beat in ANY song, even classical, and he'll make up an impromptu dance routine.
Oh, and he's just awesome in general.
Can you guys tell I love my kid or what?0 -
2 daughters - seriously proud of. I always hated when my parents would brag, so I don't do it much...
but here is my 6 year old, she's in athletic cheerleading and already a contortionist.
My 4 year old is already writing and reading some words, she's also in athletic cheer, but a crazy great dancer - the girl has rhythm and all the moves of a pole dancer :noway: and she's also an aspiring mermaid

Well, where to begin! God has blessed me and my husband with two great kids!
My daughter, who turns 5 today and my son (2 1/2)both love their vegetables and will eat nearly anything!! We have heard and learned first-hand, if they see you eating it, they'll want it to.
They are getting very daring in the swimming pool.
They love to play outside and ride bikes, swing, tee ball - anything.0 -
Mine goes to zumba with me! She LOVES it!0

Reading your husband say that (^^^) about your children is pretty much the biggest turn on ever. I you, Bradley.
Anyway, he pretty much summed up how awesome our boys are.0 -
My 14 year old, Owen, along with his team, won the 14u Maryland State Babe Ruth baseball championship a few weeks ago. They went on to play in the regional tournament last week and although they lost, Owen was named MVP of the 10-team tournament!!!
On Saturday, he begins football practice...not bad that as a sophomore he is the starting varsity quarterback. It probably helps that he's 6' and weighs 140 pounds.
My 9 year old, Nolan, was the youngest kid in his Little League to make the 9-10 year old All Star baseball team this summer...and he started every game at short stop. He also came in to pitch late in a game and got the save for his team.
He is also a quarterback for his junior football team and has his first scrimmage in two weeks!
I LOVE having athletic children!0
