S/O the birthday sads

[mamasaurus]

What are some cute baby things you will be sad to see your LO grow out of in the next few months? What are some things you will NOT be sad to never see again?

I will miss:

--when she "claps" her feet
--the sleepy babbling
--her huge "I'm so proud of myself" smile when she goes after a toy in the next room and gets it
--boob snuggles
--her being small enough to sleep on me
--when she strokes my hair with her little hands

I will not miss:

--garbage disposal farts
--whining to be turned over even though she can do it herself
--absolutely everything going into her mouth
--strands of drool like a St. Bernard dangling from her face

What are yours?

[helicase]

I'll miss:
Smiling at me from across the room and crawling over to sit/lay in my lap
Napping on me
The look of accomplishment when he pulls himself up
Carrying him in the Ergo -- once he starts walking, I know he'll want to explore

I won't miss:
Everything in the mouth
The drool
Only wanting mama (although, I secretly like it!)

[The Foozzler]

I will miss
-the babble conversations we have
-his version of peek a boo where he tilts his head and then picks it back up again
-his attempt at clapping his hands
-Being able to comfortably hold him
-crawling

I will not miss
-him screaming in his car seat on the way home from DC
-so.much.drool

ETA- one more thing

[Deleted]

I will miss his sleepy snuggles, his excited squeals and his "donald duck" noises
I will not miss the drool, and having to carry him everywhere (he is heavy)

[gmoneymommy]

I'll miss...
His littleness (he's already 25 lbs though and slowing down, so maybe he'll be this "little" for a while)
His experimentation with sounds
The way he whispers
Nursing him often

Things I won't miss...
His frustration at not being able to move
Him not understanding how to be gentle

[claralou]

I will miss:

- the hand and feet clapping
- touching foreheads (she does this to H and I, and it's adorable)
- the huge smile when she discovers she can do something new
- raspberries as communication
- that incredible babylaugh

I will not miss:
- not sleeping for more than 3 hours at a time

Oh, yeah. Normal sleep is going to be amazing.

Y'all stop. This post is giving me the sad. I cannot contribute.
