Hi Everyone! I'm New :)

I thought I should introduce myself, since I posted down below, but I'm not sure this is the right folder to do it in. Sorry if I'm messing the board up, LOL. I have been a member of iVillage for a long time (Since being pregnant with my girls), and post on several boards, and I always feel like if I'm going to jump on a new board, it is only right to introduce myself, so here I go. . .

My name is Sofia (I guess you could tell that from my siggy, LOL!). I'm the proud SAHM to 4 great kids: Matthew is my 10 year-old (DOB: 9-15-98), Justin is 7 (DOB: 8-24-01), and I also have identical twin girls, Tessa and Jenna, who turned 5 on September 10. I've been married to my DH Michael for 15 years. We were high school sweethearts :) He is an Emergency Medicine physician at a big urban teaching hospital, and he also teaches medical students. We live on the East Coast.

In lurking around a bit, I see a few familiar faces from other boards (Hi Laura and Brandi!).

I'm new to the whole pre-teen/tween thing, and I admit it's making me a bit nervous, LOL. I am already shocked (and a bit amused) that kids in his class in FIFTH GRADE are talking about "going out" with each other (Going out where, I wonder? LOL). . . Matthew is heading into some challenging years. Hopefully it will be a smooth ride. I'd love to get the wisdom of all you moms who have gone before me! I am also hoping that NONE of my kids turn out to be ANYTHING CLOSE to how I was as a teenager, LOL! ;)

Nice to meet everyone! And sorry if I posted this in the wrong thread!

Hey Laura!! :)

I'm stalking you too ;)

This board seems so friendly, looks like I will be sticking around (That is---until someone kicks me out. J/K!)

Maybe I will stop in in the DYKs. Sometimes it's hard to jump in when you don't know everyone yet, but you know me---always the DYK Queen, LOL.

Good to see you! I've missed talking with you!

What a nice welcome from everyone!!

Thanks so much. You guys seem so friendly, maybe I'll stick around, if you don't mind. I sure could use the moral support as my son heads for adolescence! It's nice to meet all of you, and I look forward to getting to know you better :)
