Your favorite age so far

glowpointglowpoint member
in July 2011 Moms
We're coming up on 2 this year, which is so hard to believe. It seems like every day, DS is just a little more fun to be with. I always find myself thinking that this is obviously the best age, but when I look back, I've been thinking that ever since we got out of newborn survival mode. What has been your favorite age so far? Is there any particular stage you wish you could have back for a little while?

    I loved the 5-6 month old stage.  Every age has something about it that I loved the most.  Even the sleepless, colicky, painful breastfeeding newborn phase.  I miss him being that tiny :)

    Like you, I've found myself saying "THIS IS MY FAVORITE STAGE!!!" about every stage. ;)

    My favorites have been 6 months (pre-mobile, full of smiles, sleeping through the night, starting to really have a personality) and 18 months (full

    I don't know if I have a favorite age, since I like her a lot all the time, but I will say that things were MUCH easier when she was a teeny tiny. Much easier.

    I don't have a favorite age.  It seems to just get better and better.

    Honestly, I freaking love the newborn/infant stage. Love it. That is hands-down my favorite time. I have enjoyed toddlerhood this time around much more than I did with my first. He was a very difficult toddler from about 17months until he turned 2. With m

    I'm with Lauren - keeps getting better. :) the tantrums are killer, but there's nothing like hearing her say more and more hilarious things every day, and having her voluntarily come and give me hugs or grab my hand and take me to see something.

    Hmmmmm, it depends on the child for sure. With Dylan I LOVED 0 to 6 weeks, then the colic happened until 6 months and that was ROUGH.
    I'd say he became really easy after 12 months. When bottles were done and I didn't have to lug a ton of baby stuff

    Every age has been better than the last. I've never been a huge fan of very young children because i find them stressful, so I anticipate I will like every age more than the last. I'm sure it will peak somewhere, maybe 9 years old?

    Each age has pros and cons. She was suuuuch a high needs baby, so her babyhood was stressful. But this has also morphed into being a very high needs toddler. At least now, I can set her down, some of the time.

    Unlike DS, who was very low ne
