As we approach Addison's first birthday I am seeing myself getting sad. I cannot believe that she is as old as she is. I always told myself that we would get rid of the paci at one, but as that approaches I feel like that is the last thing that makes her a baby and I'm not ready for my baby to grow up. I know I am being completely irrational and I can't keep her as a baby forever. Please tell me I am not the only one.
Re: I am being That mom.
I feel the same way about the sippy cup. She won't take it. Part of me says "Well, if she wants to use her bottle, so be it!! She's still a baby!"
Well no...she will be one in like 3 weeks. lol.
My biggest thing I'm doing that with is the infant car seat. I still sometimes put the whole seat in a wagon and go into a store. She wakes up 10 sec into it and then she wants to be out of the carseat. And she's definitely close to being too tall for it.
I also have a hard time packing away her clothes and accepting she's outgrown them.
I'm so happy she's growing and developing and normal and all that - but it's definitely hard to let go already.
