Differences Between Girl Babies/ Toddlers and Boys....
Comments (11)I don't think the walking or quick-learning has anything to do with being a girl. All children are different. I have two boys who are as different as day and night. My oldest was very physically advanced, crawling at 5 months, pulling up at 6 months (his little legs would wobble and shake as he FORCED himself to inch along the furniture), cruising (fast! - literally running down the hall with one hand on the wall) at 8 months. But he wouldn't let go and walk until 10 months. My youngest, who didn't walk until after his first birthday, is much more of a dare-devil. The younger son is the one that climbs any and everything. We have to inventory his bumps and bruises every Monday so daycare will know what happened at home. Little did I realize that those early years would so accurately reflect their personalities. My oldest is very determined and very self-controlled, but is not a risk taker. He doesn't like to disappoint anyone. My youngest is much more footloose and fancy-free. He doesn't give a flip what you think of him. My boys are 5 years apart and the younger child regularly plays with his brother and his older friends. He is as tough as nails! I don't think he will ever lack for self-esteem. I also worried (unnecessarily, but that is what moms do!) about their intelligence. My oldest just *knew* things. He just seemed to know colors/shapes/numbers/letters with zero effort. My youngest didn't pick up those things nearly as fast. I thought my oldest was normal so I was shaken by my youngest's lack of interest. The younger child started talking very early and got a lot of attention for being a "talking baby", but in my mind, he really couldn't "do" every much. When DS2 started attending preschool, he shone. He can memorize any story and repeat it word for word. Finally I had an Eureka moment. My oldest is a visual learner to an extreme. My youngest is a auditory learner. Neither is better than the other. They are just different. I always say that God sent my younger son to teach me humility. I thought I had this parenting thing figured out ... WRONG!...See Morenext hot name for baby girls
Comments (102)When we were young, my best friend and I used to play 'Let's pretend,' as we were sitting at the table drinking coffee or tea. Someday we would be old ladies, gossiping, and still together, saying things like, "Well, Mabel, did you hear about that neighbor down the street?" "No, Mildred, tell me all about it!" We still keep in touch and call ourselves by those names sometimes. I too like the name Mabel, but not Mildred. My mother named me Andrea, in the 50's, I don't know why, and I had to write about it in 6th grade. All I could find was that it meant manly, so I said it was the feminine form, meaning womanly. Doh. I have since studied ancient Greek. It comes from the word 'man' (aner, andros, etc) but means courage and strength. (as opposed to anthropos which is 'human') My late husband named his first daughter Andreia bc she was only 3 lbs at birth and she needed to be that way, as she did become. But my name is also a man's name, in Europe at least....See MoreChanging from baby room to little girls room
Comments (11)Keep the decals! Cuz I like them LOL. I like the photo with the purple bedding and the pink rug. These are much richer and much easier to change out than painting the whole room, and she probably will want to change some things out as time goes by. This way, too, it will still be her familiar old room, yet it will be a big girl room. (Kinda makes you happy, kinda makes you want to cry doesn't it!)...See MorePlease help me with my baby girl’s bathroom decor!
