Anyone else get moments like that?
I feel like DD grew up so much today and it all hit me hard when I was putting her to bed. Yesterday she started waving byebye and today she started saying it! It's not supposed to happen that fast! The last couple weeks she's been taking a few steps here and there, this morning she was still taking 34 steps then diving into me, very little control. Then, tonight right before bed she started standing herself up and walking with some control, balancing herself and stopping without falling. I feel like she learned so much today, and grew up a lot! As I was nursing her to bed it all just hit me and I felt like I was going to put her to bed as a baby, and tomorrow morning I will get her up and she will be a grown up toddler. I know everyone says it goes fast but I didn't think it would literally be overnight! I sat cuddling her for a half hour after she fell asleep, I just felt like she's not my baby anymore, she's turning into a big girl......I'm really not ready for this, she's not ever 10 months old!!
Sorry this got long, thanks for reading if you made it through!

Re: feeling overly sentimental
my read shelf:
God I know exactly how you feel, it hits me multiple times a week. When I'm nursing her, when she's getting into everything, when I look back at her sitting in her big girl car seat, yesterday was a rough one... she was sitting at the table in Ruby Tuesdays eating dinner with us!!! Oh and we had her ears pierced last week, between that and how she's wearing a little piggy tail now... omg she looks so old!
I'm torn because I want it to slow down but at the same time I love watching her grow and learn, and it isn't half bad to be able to know now what she wants or doesn't want.
