A silly thing you love about your kiddos...

TMNTgirl · April 2013

Little Benny started to cut his first tooth this weekend (you can just see the little white sliver on his gums and barely feel it when I stick my finger in his mouth).

And it made me realize that I love the fact that both my boys have been on the later side for teething (DS1 = 10 months, DS2 = 8, almost 9 months). I'm happy I got to enjoy those gummy baby smiles for such a long time. So cute.

Then I realized that it was kinda a silly thing to me to be so "happy or proud" about. It's not like we have any control over when our kids get their first teeth.

Anyone else have something silly they love/loved about their kids development that you had absolutley no control over, haha?

I love that he can't say the letter "f." It's completely developmentally appropriate, but I love that he counts, "one, two, see, sour, sive, six, seven..."

I love how they pick up your little speech nuances and make you realize things you say/do a lot. I say hmmm quite a bit apparently and E has picked up on that.

I love how literal he is. I got him a little trampoline and he was jumping on it when the instruction manual for it caught his eye. There is a picture of a trampoline on it, so he carefully put it right in the middle of the trampoline and jumped on both t

I love to see try to impress older kids or cousins. He stares. and when they notice him, he'll even wackier and less mature than usual to e.g. despite his good language skills, he'll say something wacky like dudedy-gudey-dudey in his loudes

I love his empathy right now. Tonight the dog wasn't feeling well. J asked her if she was sick and needed to go to the doctor. Then he gave her a hug.
My cousin's daughter was crying yesterday and J shhhh'd her and told her it would be okay.

I love watching him learn to dance. He'll watch and re-watch a video with dancing (usually something from Yo Gabba Gabba) and start copying the moves. It's crazy the stuff he picks up on.

There's one song with a kind of New Wave-ish band, and on

I guess this is something he has control over technically, but C still loves to be carried, and I'm sort of happy he does. For a brief time, I was frustrated by it, but I quickly realized he wouldn't want me to carry him forever, so I should enjoy i

I looooove Bishops dimples! I just kiss his chubby cheeks all.the.time.

I love how Griff likes the way I do things, and not the way DH does it. Like if the train set gets messed up and DH tries to fix it, Griff will say "no! Mam
