January 2011 Moms

I am being That mom.

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.

  • 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.

  • I am totally that mom.  The sad thing is, I didn't even realize I was being that mom until Saturday when someone called me out on it after I was going on and on about how he will always be a baby.

  • A part of me (very very very very tiny part) is excited to see my little man become a little man!
  • I am so glad I am not the only mom...maybe we can be a nice little group of moms who always have babies.
