4. Congratulations, mom

According to the moms I know, today, seventeen years ago, you looked at your boy and fell in love.

[Debi]

6. Love - I fell in love the moment I found out he was on his way

I know, so mushy, but true.

I'm lucky, he's nice to me! Even at his most teenagerish, he's still a good boy.

:hi: Thanks!

[Arugula Latte]

12. Oh, man, ain't that the truth.

*siiiiiiiigh*

I just adore my son so much. And my wonderful, fiesty daughter.

Happy B-day to Matt!

[Debi]

14. Woo Hoo a sappy we love our kids thread.....where's Matcom??? n/t

[Arugula Latte]

16. You know who loves kid? DS1

He calls them "bipedal vermin" 'cuz he loves them so much.

[Debi]

22. Oh, that's right - someone tell him that we're going to the non-smoking

section of the restaurant and we're gonna make noise and a mess!!! :bounce:

[hfojvt]

27. a seventeen year old

is hardly a kid anymore. Although they still can be a nuisance, but too old and too large to be a rug rat.

[Debi]

30. Yes, he is a young man now

But if I let him grow up I'll be without my baby :cry:

Just give me one more day......

[hfojvt]

47. I suppose that means

you won't tell him about sharing Scarlett Johannsen's b-day.

[Debi]

49. He's more into the WWE's DIVAS

The two just don't go together

[Shell Beau]

8. Happy Birthday Matt!!

:bounce: :party: :woohoo:

[Debi]

10. We're gonna pig out at the local Italian place (great food)

And go home and play video games 'til we pass out! :woohoo:

What a day!

[Shell Beau]

17. Sounds like fun!!

I hope y'all have a wonderful time!! :party:

[Debi]

19. I'll try to remember to post tomorrow when we get in to the office

It could be late though...hard to recover from good cooking!

[Left Is Write]

15. Happy Birthday, Matt!

[Debi]

20. I'll pass your message on to him! n/t

[ghostsofgiants]

18. He looks like a dude I went to school with...

Happy birthday to MAtt!

[Debi]

21. Are you 17? n/t

[ghostsofgiants]

[Debi]

32. Wanna come over and play MarioParty 7 after dinner? n/t

[ghostsofgiants]

35. Mario Party? Count me in! Haha.

[Debi]

38. I knew you were 17! n/t

[ghostsofgiants]

40. Well, I'm not THAT much older...

And I'm really around 7 at heart, haha.

[Debi]

42. Don' t you wish we could go back to being kids on our birthdays?

Play games, eat cake and be goofy?!

:party:

[ghostsofgiants]

44. Haha, that would be great

[Debi]

51. I don't know about you, but the toys nowadays are WAY better

Some days I wish I would have had more kids so I could keep buying the toys! But my son doesn't dig the legos anymore :cry:

[Shell Beau]

36. I absolutley LOVE Mario Party games!!

I knew part 7 was coming out, but I didn't know it was out already!! :woohoo: We have a game cube too!! :) I am always Yoshi or Daisy!!

[Debi]

37. We've totally tricked my poor son

He thinks that it won't be released until after Thanksgiving.

So, we're going to open gifts at home and head to the restaurant for dinner. When his dessert comes the server will give him an extra gift...MARIO PARTY 7!!!!

Can't wait to get home and play!

[Shell Beau]

39. It takes a while to finish a game of MarioParty, but I love

the mini games!! He's going to be so happy. :)

[Debi]

41. Yes, and we'll be sick of it by Monday!

(Just in time to buy the Donkey Kong bongo games for Christmas!)

[Shell Beau]

43. I've been wanting those forever! I want to know if they are any

fun! I have to get my husband war games and sports games! x(
But Mario Tennis is fun! And I usually like the Donkey Kong stuff!

[Debi]

45. I'll tell you on December 26th!

[newyawker99]

53. Sounds like fun!
