Thread: My child

She has finally reached the "I am more sneaky than you" stage and it is slowly wearing on my patience. I hope that the rest of this week goes a little more smooth than today has, how many times can you really send a child to the corner?

Have you tried sending her outside to play like our parents did with us? If it's cold, make sure you bundle her up though!

Fidel, want a kid, real cheap sale, promise.

speedydemon the weather has been actually been getting pretty nasty. I do not even want to be outside in it and today I have some errands to run. I am hoping that traffic is nice for me and I can make a clean break from home > store > home, before it gets too dark and too cold. The winds have been insane. The bad part? I am between a rock and a hard place, and all the teen drivings are going to be out and about this Friday evening.

Hope you are having a better day today Creg. Mine is only 11 months old and already into everything. I guess she is trying to be sneaky too because if it's something you already said no about she'll look at you before she goes after it.

I don't have any kids of my own, but I have a much younger little brother and I've discovered that I just need to put the effort into keeping him busy busy busy and making him feel either helpful or like he's working towards a prize of some sort.

That is how it has been lately, tons of projects but I feel I need to make a clone of myself just to keep up. We do not do day care so its even more interesting on some days. She is like my little shadow though, good thing she has yet to learn all the crazy things I have done in life.

I feel ya Creg...my little girl will be a year in Jan. and I feel like I need one of me just to watch her! She is sooo fast...look away for 2 seconds and she is gone...and into something she shouldn't be. Some days I think I will lose my mind!

How fun! I remember those days! Hey wait, mine is 13 and we still have those days. Now it's give me your cell phone, and unplug the TV then go to your room. It gets better, it really does!

The only thing I really worry about as she is most times a really good girl, is by the time she starts driving. If she is anything like any female in my family she will have a lead foot, the same applies for her Daddy's family, every female more than ever. The men in our families drive slow.
