  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Oh most definitely. Its weird my two oldest (6 and 8) dont. But our little guy yeah he definitely makes e feel old.
Good to know I'm not alone in this. I couldn't imagine how much older I'd feel if I had kids of my own...
May I ask how old your little guy is? From the way you talk about him I'd guess he's 3-4ish? :)

Haha, my siblings and my kids make me feel old.
I’m the middle child out of 9 kids so there is a wide rang of ages. Oldest sibling is 50 and baby brother is 21!
I felt old when my brother graduated. Again when he got engaged. And again when they announced they were having a baby.
Wow 8 siblings?! That's mad.. I'm the eldest of 6 (dad has me and three to another woman, mum has me and two to other men) and that's hectic enough.. I couldn't imagine having another two siblings to argue with...

None of my siblings have kids yet (thank heavens!) but my eldest younger brother is almost 20 and my eldest younger sister just turned 18 so I'm expecting a call at some point from one of them saying "hey Ebbi, you're gonna be an auntie!"
I dread that day haha


Its good to know I'm not alone in this. I know I'm not old (25) but my gosh those kids make me feel old.. :( :D

Ahh yes. The full of energy is what made me think 3-4..

18 months to 30ish months is a great age, they do the funniest things around then.. :D
 
Are they all from the same parents?
We all have the same mother. But there are three dads. The two oldest share a dad and were raised with him. The next oldest has her own dad but he was never in the picture so she was raised with us. For the longest time I didn’t even know she had a different dad. Then the rest of us all have the same dad.

It was a bit hectic growing up. The house was always full. All I ever wanted was time to myself. Lol Now my siblings are my best friends:)
Nieces and nephews are the best! I was so excited when the rest of my siblings decided to catch-up to me. Haha!
Now my kids will be the cool older cousins.

Hes on a whole different level of energy. Hes broken more stuff than both of my two kids combined. My wife says if he was our 1st born she would never have had anymore lol

I recon my youngest sibling will have kids before I do, there's 16 years between us so I've got plenty of time to beat her there but I have no plans for kids any time soon, if she has kids before she's my age she'll likely beat me there lol

I started early. By the time I was 25 I already had both my kids and got my tubes tied that year. Lol
