Talking baby

[beck07]

Hi everyone..
My baby boy is 7 months old and already starting to say a few words. He has been crawling since he was 6 1/2 months old, he seems to be learning so quickly to me! Im so excited that hes growling and learning and cant wait for whats to come but im gonna miss him being a tiny baby who just wants to cuddle lol!!
Did anyone else find that their baby was growing up to quickly?

Yep definitely, mine is 3 now and whilst I'm enjoying each new stage as its happening, I really miss the teeny tiny newborn stage.

I'm also really dreading when she goes to school and I'll no longer be the centre of her universe :-(

That's where the hamster comes in useful Boo lol !!
Your new substitute baby !!

'growling', ha, that sounds like mine

[B00]

LOL @ Jillius, yes you could be right there- they snore as loud as each other!

Thats also what im not looking forward too! at the moment all we do is play all day, i dont know what im gonna do with myself when hes grown up and going to school! im going to want to go with him lol!!

By the time they get to that age, believe me, although you are sad on the first day and you do miss them - it is nice to see them off on the next adventure. My son also started talking very early - he could say yellow before he could sit up!

My son started talking and walking early for his age too.

But no matter what age they do things, every day they learn something new and amaze you more and more. I am still enjoying watching him change at 2.5yrs.

My youngest son, to our horror, started walking at 7 months old, his crawling started a 4 months. I was almost jealous of my friends baby who was 3 months older and hadn't started crawling yet. He's 2 and a half and it feels like he doesnt need me for anything. He's a stubborn so and so and wont let me wash him, dress him, feed him or anything remotely motherly. However, he still cuddles me like his life depends on it and when he's not filling my shoes up with blackcurrant squash he's quite lovely really.

Awww...it was lovely reading all that.
My eldest walked properly at eight and half months, which was extremely early. He never crawled - but just flapped around and then got up one day. The whole family were there to witness it, and were astounded.
It's sad in a way when your children grow out of their "baby stage", but each year brings something new. I wouldnt've missed it for the world.

By reading all of your answers i am now quite looking forward to how fun todlers can be lol, but wil definatly miss the baby stages of it all..
Kis has started to call me mumma now and it feels really lovley hearing his litlle voice coming out..
godsoulette- i can see my kie having the sort of personality where he decides to feel my shoes up with all sorts of things lol, hes very cheeky already!! :)

Hey Beck,

Yes I agree, my babies are now 23 and 16. Strangely it doesn't seem five minutes since they were crawling!

Though my son has three small boys now which is even better as you can hand them back when it's time to go home!

Enjoy while you can!
