Hang on though, the salient point was "born to ...".  Isn't the 
obvious explanation that at the time the prophecy was first heard, no 
one in the Order had any children?  Only when Harry and Neville were 
born did it became urgent.  He could have done a Terminator and tried 
to kill the parents before they gave birth, but if he'd missed them 
three times already, it might have seemed easier to wait to take out 
a supposedly defenceless baby.  Also there were probably a lot of 
other things going on, evil deeds to do, resistance to fight, dark 
spells to conquer death to be mastered, etc.
