Is it sad that Iâm currently looking forward to December 26th? When there are no more things left to do and zero plans and I might actually sleep? đŹ Donât get me wrong, weâre having fun and I look forward to Christmas Eve and Day and all that. But currently in the middle of three kids class party prep and wrapping and baking and oh man. I love it but exhausting!!!

I would join in this buuuut the babyâs birthday is the 27th and then I invited my sister over for New Yearâs Eve. I also invited my sil but I donât know if she is coming yet. She has until the 28th to tell me.

The baby cracks up whenever he rubs my eyebrows. This would be really funny if he didnât also poke me in my eyes. Lol Awwww! Today my baby was entertaining herself by smooshing her face into my boob, shaking her head back and forth and going âBWABWABWABWABWAHâ and then grinning at me.

My cousinâs daughter is 12 and just completed a 7 hour babysitter training class with the Red Cross along with cpr training, and is really excited to babysit - but hasnât found anyone yet and thinks itâs because sheâs so small. (She is a very tiny 12 year old.) So anyway Iâve asked her to babysit my 3 year old this Friday afternoon while I put baby down for a nap, do stuff around the house, maybe run an errand (H works from home so heâll be in the house) and Iâm actually pretty excited. DD1 has been pretty ornery lately so it will be great to have an older kid playing with her so I can have some peace. đ And just $8/hour! That is awesome!!! Enjoy!!

sarahh that picture is amaaaaazing!!! Callum continues to be the happiest baby but heâs been walking since he was 9.5 months and now his favorite trick is climbing on the hearth which keeps me on my toes. Itâs pretty high and if he falls off he could land on the rug or on tile. Here are both my boys.

I forgot how exhausting this stage is. J cannot be left alone for more than 30 seconds without getting into trouble! I went to the bathroom this morning and she ate a Kleenex and chewed on a lamp cord, then came to find me and tried to stick her hand into the toilet between my legs đđ€Ł

So I'm trying not to worry but B still isn't standing. I can place her into a standing position and she will stay for a minute then sit back down. I don't know if she just doesn't like to stand or if something is wrong.
I'm trying not to worry because I was worried about her not having teeth but she got like 8 in the last month. And I was worried about her not crawling but she did at 10 months. I try not to compare her to DD1 but it's really hard not to.
Has anyone had a kid that just didn't like standing and then did all of the sudden and was fine? I don't think there is anything wrong with her muscle tone because she has pretty strong legs and kicks straight legged a lot and crawls really fast.

My bffs DD didnât walk until like 15mo. She could stand a bit but just didnât. One day she just stood up and walked. She is a perfectly normal 3 1/2 year old. My little man stands while holding on and cruises on furniture but hasnât taken any independent steps. He has also only stood without holding on twice and it was only a few seconds.

sarahh DD1 hated standing! She finally started standing and pulling up on things around 11 or 12 months and didn't walk until 13 or 14 months. Totally normal! My first two didn't have their first tooth until right around their first birthday, too. I know it's hard not to compare kiddos but don't worry too much! Express your concerns to your ped at her 1 year appointment and he or she can take it from there. Worst case they would probably recommend a little bit of PT or OT, and a little bit of therapy never hurt anyone! :-)

G loves her little brother but she doesnât realize how delicate he is sometimes. Today was the second time she tickled him so hard he fell backwards. I have all hardwood and tile floors. I fear for his little head. đ

DS1 didnât walk until 15m too. Try not To worry. Sounds like she has a preference to crawling at the moment. Remember kids change in a blink of an eye, before you know sheâs going to be running around!

I didnât have this problem with G because the apartment we lived in had carpet.

Went to a barre class this morning...I'm really enjoying it so far. (I've only been twice!) It's nice to get back into a group exercise/gym environment too, I haven't been a regular gym-goer since before DS was born. A trainer there saw me coming out of the class and of course made a comment about seeing me out running. I used to be one of the few regular runners in our town, but now that running is more popular there are way more of us! It is a major part of my non-mom identity so I'm glad to be getting it back. Anyone else find themselves getting back into the groove of things more? (not just exercise, other ways too! Like I'm doing more cooking for enjoyment, another one of my main hobbies...I'm going to make a creamy polenta with sausage and rainbow chard tonight-yum!)

easternshoregirl yes!!! I was just telling a friend the other day how nice it is to feel like I am getting back on track with just âstuffâ! Cooking, sleeping, doing little things for myself again and so on.
