Is your kiddo ever still?

My kiddo is constantly moving - even before he could crawl he wasn't one to just sit and play with a toy. Now that he can crawl and pull up - yikes! He really won't even sit on my lap to play with a toy or look at a book. Not complaining (although I do need to invest in bumpers for my house); just curious if there is some magic thing I'm missing that would get him to stop and snuggle for a bit.

Re: Is your kiddo ever still?
Nope! Once he was mobile, it was downhill from there! The only time he's still is if he's really tired. Even my MIL said how active he is and she's around kids all the time. I can't wait until he can walk so I can take him to the park and he can tire himself out because he does exhaust me!

Yep, this is dd. She was constantly moving on the inside. My coworkers used to just sit and stare and giggle at my belly during staff meetings because it was non-stop jumping around. She's still the same way. She'll sit still for a bottle, but once it's done she's up and going.
Nope! He doesn't even stay still when he sleeps.
The best thing about a kid that's always moving is that you get crawl/walk by hugs and kisses. They feel extra special because you know that they paused just to give them to you!
