This week's topic is favorite milestones. I'm having a terribly hard time coming up with a list. Like way harder than it should be. There are so many things that I have really loved, and many that I have really just wanted to see end.
But, if I have to pick, in no particular order - you can't make me choose!:
Sleeping through the Night: Of course this has to be on the list. Who wouldn't be happy to sleep longer than 45 minutes at a time?
Eating Solid Foods: As much as I love breastfeeding, I have also loved feeding Henry food. I made all of his baby food, so it was great to watch him enjoy it. But somewhere along the way, Henry has decided he is entitled to at least 1/2 of whatever I'm eating, and that I'm not quite loving as much. Plus, who can deny the cuteness of a messy baby face?
Same look, 10 months apart!
Moving Around: Henry sat up at 4 months, crawled at 6, and walked at 9 -- so this is one I have mixed emotions about. I really love watching Hen explore the world, but I do wish he had waited a few more months before he started.
This video is from early August 2011, Henry isn't even 5 months old. By the end of the month he was full blown crawling.
Now if you want a list of non-favorite firsts, this seems easier: learning to say no, throwing food, and learning to bite top that list.
I'm looking forward to a few firsts too: end of reflux, normal iron levels, watching him as a big brother, outgrowing his milk protein allergy, and outgrowing 6-9 month size pants! Hopefully soon, right?
What were your favorite baby firsts?
