Do they smile? Frown? Run to you or away from you? Say "Hi Mommy (or Daddy)?"
Include their age, please.

It changes all the time! Right now, she runs to me with her arms extended! 2 years old! She ignores me during snack and outdoor time.
My 11 month old always smiles!

Xander (almost 14 months) smiles and maybe waves, but then will go back to whatever he was doing and get super angry with me when I try to get him ready to leave. Sometimes he'll cling to whoever happens to be holding him and refuse to be given to me OR he'll reach for his daycare teachers when I'm holding him. The stinker HATES leaving daycare!

L is 15 months and gets a big smile and runs over to me as fast as he can.
If I come home after his dad picks him up from daycare, though, he could care less that I'm home.

My LO is 14 months. He smiles really big and bounces up and down on his heels. It's tough leaving sometimes in the morning because he's crying, but I LOVE seeing him after work.

9 months, and I get a big smile, sometimes a happy screech, and she crawls over to me super fast. It's adorable!

It always changes!!! right now we're in a phase where our 4 year old screeches "mommy!" and runs into my arms, but then dilly dallys and doesn't want to leave. Our 21 month old screeches with glee, but runs away from us and does NOT want to leave.

My 19 month old fluctuates between: running towards us with unbridled joy OR sparing a glance {with total indifference} while continuing to play.

23 months and he currently runs up to me with a big grin just to ask for my keys and then run away. 2 weeks it ago he would just run to the other side of the room laughing at my attempts to get him to leave... stinker

Age 3, throws himself under a table, refusing to leave, making a huge scene....which is comical because he doesn't want to be dropped off in the mornings either.

The LO I nanny is 13 months, and she immediately starts crying and crawls over to me so fast. I get big hugs and she is ready to go home. She's got some attachment issues!

papaya / 10570 posts
9 months old. She smiles and waves her arms about frantically! But then when I pick her up she usually starts crying and rubbing her eyes - for some reason, seeing mummy reminds her how tired she is!
GOLD / wonderful olive / 19030 posts
18 months and it's always a 50/50 shot. Sometimes she's super excited and yells "Mommy" while running toward me other times she ignores me and throws a super fit/runs from me when I try to leave.

20 months and she has a big smile on her face and yells "Mama!". If she is playing she will come running but if she is eating she will just wave at me. I love doing pick up!

He sees me, smiles, says Mommy,drops what he is playing with to run over to me and give me a hug! Best feeling ever considering he is a daddy's boy!

@lovehoneybee: I'm glad E likes daycare! Hope your new job is going well.

@dagret: He loves it! He runs right to his room in the morning and sits down at the table for breakfast, or starts chasing the other kids! He barely looks my way when I leave!

When she's awake, she smiles, waves, then walks towards me. When she's still asleep, she reaches up for me and is usually pretty snuggly.
LO is a few days shy of 22 months.

LO smiles the biggest smile when he sees me (usually after some of the other kids point out to him I'm there ) and will usually start moving towards me! Well except when his daycare teacher is feeding him fruit then he couldn't care less about me
I just love the look of sheer happiness on his face though once he's wrapped up in my arms! That and the morning snuggle time are the def. the best parts of my day.
LO is 12m
