I was wondering,why were the twins were done by a surrogate but she gave birth to their son. Was there something that happened, something that changed, etc. this time that she didnt' give birth to the twins herself and had a surrogate? I was thinking I might have missed something inbetween then and now. The twins and their son James are soooooo cute. http://tv.msn.com/tv/article.aspx?news=417959&GT1=28103 And just in case anyone is interested in seeing the photo of them here is the link.

May Heaven grant you in all things your heart's desire. And really great eyelashes.

Thanks mimmi. Last thing I remember about her was she giving some interview and being a bit pissed off at the paps. It seems she almost fell carrying her son or something along those lines. I just saw something recently about her being again pissed off at how the surrogate mother was being hounded, etc. "Because we don't know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well.

Sarah Jessica Parker 'made frantic plane journey to be at birth of twin girls' By Daily Mail Reporter Last updated at 3:39 PM on 30th June 2009 Sarah Jessica Parker and her husband Matthew Broderick made a frantic plane journey from New York to Ohio to be at the birth of their new twin girls, it was revealed today. The couple raced across the clock to make it to the hospital on time after receiving a phone call to notify them that the babies would be born a few weeks early. 'They were incredibly anxious they were going to miss the birth.' Enlarge Happy family: Sarah Jessica Parker holds daughter Marion Loretta Elwell while husband Matthew Broderick nurses Tabitha Hodge. Their son James Wilkie crouches between them 'Sarah Jessica and Matthew spent a very tense flight wondering if the girls would already be born by the time that they landed,' a friend of the couple is quoted as telling Grazia magazine. Twins Marion Loretta Elwell and Tabitha Hodge are thought to have been delivered by Caesarean at East Ohio Regional Hospital with the proud couple on hand to be the first to hold them. News of the pair's dramatic plane dash emerged as the first picture of the them with their week old daughters was released. It looks as if the pair already have a devoted older brother, as the Sex And the City actress's son James Wilkie, six, is shown starting adoringly at Marion. The photograph was taken in the couple's New York apartment yesterday. Parker, 44, and her actor husband, 47, decided to explore surrogacy after they were unable to conceive naturally. In April, they announced that surrogate Michelle Ross was pregnant. She gave birth last Monday. Marion was born weighing 5lbs 11oz, while Tabitha weighed 6lbs. 'Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick are delighted to announce the healthy arrival of their two daughters,' a spokesman for the couple told website Access Hollywood. 'Both Hodge and Elwell are family names on Parker's side. The babies are doing beautifully and the entire family is over the moon.' The babies were born at the East Ohio Regional Hospital in the U.S. and a hospital spokesman said 'everything's good'. The twins were delivered a few weeks ahead of schedule. Last month, Parker told Access Hollywood that media attention surrounding the pregnancy had led to an invasion of the surrogate mother's privacy. The actress, who is most famous for her role as Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City, said she had been concerned for the woman 'and the safe delivery of our children'.

Susan Sarandon had twins at 46. Another actress had a child in her late 40's. I wouldn't want to be in my 60's having children just graduating, but many actors have kids that will be teens and they will be in their 70's. So...it's all relative, I guess. Dennis Quaid is 52 or 53 and has newborns. His wife is younger, but still. He will be quite a bit older at their graduation for sure. LOL! Meg Ryan is going to be 48 and has a 3 year old?? 15 years she will be 63.

And people of all walks of life are having children later in life, not just celebs. It's not a big deal anymore imo. May Heaven grant you in all things your heart's desire.

Jan. 7, 2009? Now five months later they have twins. Only in Hollywood. SJP And Matthew Broderick Splitting Up? January 7, 2009 There are always rumors going around about Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick near divorce. Now, according to Star Magazine, Sarah Jessica Parker is reportedlymoving out and has begun house hunting in New York City. The magazine reports SJP's husband, Matthew Broderick, cheated on her with a younger woman and now Sarah has recently visited a midtown real estate broker to help her find her own place. "The time has come when she realizes it just isn't worth it," a friend of the couple tells the mag. "Sarah Jessica is determined to get her own place and bring down the curtain on her marriage… Sarah's not stupid. She knows exactly what's going on. For a while it was easier for her to stay than go through a harsh divorce. They're essentially living separate lives." Only time will tell, although just this Sunday the couple and their 7-year-old son James went to see Hairspray together as a family.

Then they're all in the same boat... they'll be going to school functions, and the other children with younger parents will think they're all grandparents. Seriously, some of those parents may not live to see their children graduate or get married, not to mention enjoy their grandchildren. I find that kind of sad. But hey, it's their lives. I'm just glad that we had our kids when we (late hubby and I) were young enough to still remember what it was like to be a kid.

Believe me, I'm 40 myself and the mom of a kindergartner and I see moms and dads with their kindergartners or babies around the neighbourhood a lot and they're of every age from 20s to 40s. It's so common that most people who have kids now don't even think of it. I get what you're saying about being an older parent, but like Bruni says: sometimes you're just not ready to have kids in your 20s. Whether because you haven't met the right person or you're busy doing other things. I know I don't regret for a moment that I waited until mid 30s to have kids. And as for remembering being a kid: I have a really good memory in spite of my advanced age so that is certainly NOT a problem. And as for what kids with younger parents think: to most kids anyone over 18 is automatically about 60-70 years old regardless of real age. May Heaven grant you in all things your heart's desire. And really great eyelashes.

Posts: 7232 (Jul 3, 2009 8:52 AM) Perch Eminence Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I'm speaking more about people like Dennis Quaid (in his 50s), and Nancy Grace who had her twins at 48. I'm thinking of their children, who could lose their parents at an earlier age than normal (especially David Letterman). They're the ones it's going to be rough on, when they don't have a father to walk them down the aisle, etc. My own son didn't become a father until he was in his 30s. I realize that people are having children at a later age because of college, establishing a career, and settling on a partner. I'm not saying that anybody on this board shouldn't have had their kids when they did. I just wish people would think what their child may go through before waiting until 50 or older to have them. If I hadn't had my kids until I was in my 40s, I couldn't have gotten down on the floor and wrestled with them, or played tag in the yard, and all that fun stuff, because my arthritis was too bad by then. So I'm glad my kids knew me when I could still turn cartwheels in the yard, and people said I looked too young to have children.

Posts: 6385 (Jul 3, 2009 10:11 AM) Reply Quote More My Recent Posts Message Me Connection Blocking Invite Ignore User's Posts	I think Tony Randall took the prize for being the oldest baby daddy around. David Letterman probably still has a few good years left and something tells me he's out in the yard tossing the ball with his son now. I think health is more important than the number of one's age. I know 50 year olds who run, play tennis and are in the best shape of their lives...and then I know a 30 year old who is very overweight and can't keep up with her little boys....so it's all relative. The most important thing IMO is being as involved as you can with your children while you're alive (and if you're an older parent...living as healthy a lifestyle as you can....not smoking, exercising, eating right, etc). A day without laughter is a day wasted. ~ Charlie Chaplin

How many of you guys know folks who had heart attacks, cancer, accidents, etc? And while we are in the midst of celebs dying earlier due to illness & problems, plenty of celebs live to ripe old ages. ITA w/ Nosy - "health is more important than one's age" - not to mention a lot of celebs have pretty decent access to health care. Last Edited By: desicrowefan Jul 3, 2009 10:15 AM. Edited 1 times.
