1. What has been your favorite stage with your LO so far?  If you have older children, what was your favorite stage with them?  I'm loving the stage she is currently in (10 weeks).  I miss the teeny tiny newborn days, but she's so fun right now.  She's smiling and laughing a lot more, and she's learning new things literally overnight. 

2. If you had to choose one, would you rather your child be the bully, or the bullied?  I was bullied as a kid for a few years, and it absolutely kills me to think of my LO going through that.  However I'd hate worse for her to have an ugly personality and hurt others.  I still see bullying going on as an adult, we have a few in my office, but I don't let her get to me and I've noticed she leaves me alone because I've stood up to her.  I think my bullying as a kid helped me to be stronger and become more assertive in my adulthood.  However I know that's not the case for everyone which makes me sad....so if I had to choose, I guess I'd rather her be bullied and hope she grows stronger because of it.

3. What is your least favorite every day chore?  Dishes (when there are a lot of them) and mopping the floor.

4. What is your least favorite once in a while chore?  Cleaning up cat puke

5. Your favorite every day chore?  I really don't mind laundry, especially since getting our new washer and dryer

6. Your favorite once in a while chore?  When the bug hits me, I enjoy deep cleaning, getting rid of stuff, and cleaning the stuff you usually ignore.

7. Did you collect anything as a child (or now)?  In my late teens and even early adulthood I collected sun, moon and star things.  My room at my parents house looked like the solar system threw up in there....sun and moon quilt, knickknacks, pictures on the wall, pillows, I even had the glow in the dark stars on my ceiling.  I have a sun and moon tattoo on my ankle (my first tattoo).  I gradually grew out of it, but I still have a few of my knickknacks and stuff.

1. What has been your favorite stage with your LO so far? If you have older children, what was your favorite stage with them?
--Right now she is so fun. She smiles so much and tried to mimic me. I was not a fan of the newborn stage when she didn't interact with me.

2. If you had to choose one, would you rather your child be the bully, or the bullied?
--I guess I'd rather have my child be bullied and learn to stick up for herself. I wouldn't want her to be mean to others and be the bully.

3. What is your least favorite every day chore?
-- I hate doing dishes. I usually leave them for as long as possible or until DH puts them away.

4. What is your least favorite once in a while chore?
--Cleaning the office. We always just pile stuff in there and leave it for weeks. It's always messy so I say why bother.

5. Your favorite every day chore?
--Probably vacuuming and cleaning the floors. I don't know why, maybe because then my feet don't pick up dirt (we have hardwood floors)

6. Your favorite once in a while chore?
--Weeding. I jutst enjoy being outside. I really don't mind weeding. It makes my beds look so nice when they are cleared out.

7. Did you collect anything as a child (or now)?
--Mainly random crap when I was a kid. I refuse to collect anything now because I can't stand clutter. I did have quite a collection of barbies and stuffed animals though.

1. What has been your favorite stage with your LO so far?  If you have older children, what was your favorite stage with them?

Sweeping! Wood floors and a house full of boys= constant dirty floors!

Right now for sure! He's 12 weeks and interacting/smiling/"talking"... I love it.

2. If you had to choose one, would you rather your child be the bully, or the bullied?
Neither. But if I HAD to choose I would say be the one bullied. I was off and on and I feel like I'm a stronger person because of it. I've seen too many people who were the "mean kids" in school who are still that way. I would hate for my child to be an ugly person in that respect.
