How old is LO?

Milestones?

Why is LO crying?

[alias]

E is 14 months today.

He's literally running. It's so crazy. Talking constantly, but mostly gibberish. He's teething, even though he has a mouth full of teeth, so he's not been sleeping well all week, so I've not been sleeping well all week, and hes been very whiny & clingy. He understands a lot more of what I'm saying.

He was crying this morning b/c I wouldn't let him play with the toilet. Full tantrum. Also, teething, b/c I am not constantly holding him, b/c he threw his cup on the ground & he really wants juice!, b/c I handed him his cup...

DS is almost 14 months old (10/5).

He has started signing for milk, and blowing kisses. But not walking yet. We're in the daycare in my office now in the toddler room, and he's one of the only ones not walking yet. And having a little trouble transitioning so immediately to just 1 nap a day. But, he's STTN finally (started at about 12 months). We're still addressing weight, and it seems like he's gaining well but we don't go back to the doctor until 10/17 to see how we've done over the last 2 months.

Crying because I'm leaving the daycare room in the morning :-(

E is sort of blowing kisses too. And give me raspberries in my check and sometimes real kisses. I haven't been doing signs except all done, I need to work on that!

stretchad: do you have a walker that he can push, like a lawn mower? There are a lot if different ones. E loved it and started using at like 9 months? I think it helped him a lot with walking.

Yep, we have the Sit & Stand and have had it for months now. He runs all over the house with that thing! I think that he's close to walking. He's just lacking some confidence. That or landing on his bony butt has made it too uncomfortable for him to keep trying to stand up on his own and keep falling down. Maybe I should double diaper him :-)

Blb is 2 yr 3 m. She's driving me and H nuts. Everything is No! Mine! And it's so rude. She's says no to everything! I even ask her instead of ordering her around so she feels that she is making the choice. Like I'll say "honey we are getting ready to eat dinner, can you please help me by washing your hands?" No!!!

On the other hand she is hilarious. Like H and I literally get into giggle fits with her. She's really In to hide and seek right now. It's fun to play games with her.

Last night I noticed that one of her two year molars just started to break through. I can see and feel one little peak poking out. It looks so painful.

My DS has started shaking his head NO for EVERYTHING. I hope this isn't a preview of what's to come when he can speak.

E does this too, but I don't think he knows it means "no." He just thinks its funny.

Almost one year, and two and a half

Bjl has no new milestones..don't know what's next at this point. Boy now exclusively walks, never crawls. He can also climb our little tikes slide, sit, and slide himself too. It's pretty awesome.

He always cries.

Bjl cries when she's tired.

She's so precious!

M is nearing 4- going on 14. And J is 9months.

No real new milestones at this point. M is getting feistier as the days go on. J is working on cruising around the furniture and her crawling makes me feel like I need to sweep and clean floors everyday, or she just finds spots I missed.

M cries because she likes to throw fits when she doesn't get her way. J has been crying because she is tired and she has apparently decided she might need to take one power nap and then her actual nap instead of her one nap like she has been doing for a couple months now.

How old is LO? 7 weeks, 2 days.

Milestones? She discovered her hands this past weekend. I got a video of it. So stinking cute.

Why is LO crying? She's hungry. Or she's overstimulated. The usuals.

[jennlin]

oh! i do have a new milestone for bjl!! it was wednesday night, so it technically still counts for hdbd.... we forgot to put a diaper on her over night...after her shower, we usually just put her in pjs and let her run around for a bit, and then we put a diaper on and go to sleep.... we forgot to put a diaper on. she woke up to pee like usual, and that's when we realized she wasn't wearing a diaper. i was nursing the boy, and my mom brought bjl back to bed..and i told my mom to put a diaper on her..but bjl was protesting, wanted milk, and my mom is a pushover...so my mom's like "you do it when she falls asleep"...uhhh.... i fell asleep first lol.

regardless, bjl woke up completely dry, and didn't wet the bed the entire night!!! we don't trust her to not do it again, though...so she got a diaper again. she didn't wake up to pee last night (but woke up to nurse), but her diaper was dry this morning..so we'll see how long it lasts.

That's so awesome!! Go BJL!

Go BJL!

G has been clingier than usual this week and telling us that she doesn't want to go to daycare. That she'd rather stay home with us. She also suddenly started having potty "accidents" again, except they seem more purposeful than accidental. She's also cutting her 2 year molars. Maybe it's all related? Not my favorite phase, except for the snuggles. Those are nice.

A has been super smiley today which is fun. But he's had a rough week...ILs demanded we circumcise A and changed DH's mind so that happened Tuesday. I'm upset that they get a vote and that DH didn't make up his mind once and for all weeks ago. So our alert 6 week old had to go through obvious pain and discomfort rather than have it done on a confused sleepy newborn. At least DH stepped up and helped with the extra fussiness.

OMG poor A! I agree that you need to make your decision on that asap while they are still brand new. I can't imagine going through that at 6 weeks. That must have been hard for you.

Sorry about G. Do you think she's just having a hard time with the classroom adjustment? Or is it just that she is feeling like she misses being the only baby? E is getting her 2 year molars now too. Well, I noticed one just poking out...just barely. And then I checked the other side and a full one was already out! I had no idea. H does the teeth brushing and never noticed.

We really miss our friends who moved up to the napper room. E isn't really having an easy time with potty training though. The only time she goes pee is when I put her on the potty when she happens to need to go, but she doesn't tell us she needs to go. She has never pooped on the potty before either. We read a lot of potty books and on weekends she wears pull ups and I pay a lot of attention to offering the potty throughout the day. I don't know what else to do to move things along. She's probably not really ready to move up anyway.

How old is LO? K&O are a year old! almost 13 months now!

Milestones? they walk, k blows kisses, o does raspberries, seems like o is saying thank you, they both say mama, dog, duck, nana, dada, they are starting to run-ish. they talk a lot

Why is LO crying? teething, a little bit of sick going away, when we put them in their cribs to sleep, about 5hundred times a night waking up (yes our babies don't freaking sleep through the night and i don't know what to do!), when i put o down, she screams, if i'm holding one of my babies, the other freaks or needs to be held. i do a lot of this:
