He will be 4 in a month. Of course the L is backwards (or sideways or upside down...) and he still has a little trouble with the G but it is still legible. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-is-grow-up-to-fast-because#post-2466028 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 11:52:03 +0000 catlady 2466028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She speaks in full sentences nearly all of the time now. Every day, she seems to have some new expression. It blows my mind. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-is-grow-up-to-fast-because#post-2466017 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 11:46:08 +0000 mfa_lady 2466017@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Because this morning, instead of just babbling in her crib, she woke up and yelled "DADDY!" over and over again at the top of her lungs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-is-grow-up-to-fast-because#post-2466016 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 11:46:07 +0000 schubr03 2466016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD (7.5 mom) just started walking using a little walker yesterday! 😭 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-is-grow-up-to-fast-because#post-2466004 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 11:42:05 +0000 cat620 2466004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO1 is starting preschool in the fall, and is really excited to go hang out with his friends.</p> <p>LO2 keeps outgrowing his clothes.

She refused to eat until she was let down and could go stand at the table with the other kids. She also reached into the top kitchen drawer to get out her own spoon!<br /> My big kid has lost almost all her baby chub and she can entertain herself reading chapter books. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-is-grow-up-to-fast-because#post-2465326 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 02:31:06 +0000 808love 2465326@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She can whistle!!

She's off the chart for weight and height and just barely there (97%) for head circumference.<br /> She's been going 6-7 hours reliably at night, I usually only have one wakeup. Both of my older girls were similar and STTN early too. Makes having a newborn not that painful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-is-grow-up-to-fast-because#post-2465299 Thu, 18 Feb 2016 00:22:59 +0000 jhd 2465299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He can identify numbers and letters and just the other day found an alphabet block with the letter K and pointed to my brother whose name starts with K. He's 21 months and the abc obsession is out of control. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-is-grow-up-to-fast-because#post-2465289 Wed, 17 Feb 2016 23:49:02 +0000 BeachMama 2465289@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is now 11 months. Where did time go?</p> <p>The other day i was watching DD play and her legs just seemed so long, like she was a real big kid. She's turning 4 in May, which seems to be officially out of baby-land. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-is-grow-up-to-fast-because#post-2465280 Wed, 17 Feb 2016 23:17:06 +0000 yerpie110 2465280@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The only movies I've watched in the theatre in the past 4 years have been the hunger game ones.

I hope she's a good sleeper bc of it!

She came back so grown up and full of stories. She also knows lots of things I didn't realize: lower case letters, right from left. Slow down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-is-grow-up-to-fast-because#post-2465232 Wed, 17 Feb 2016 22:01:50 +0000 Portboston 2465232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 6.5 month old is a professional crawler!!! Way too soon. He has two bottom teeth and his 4 top ones are about to push through.

She told me it was $5 and it was President Lincoln on it and that he was the 16th president. She also told me that Washington was the first president and our current president is Obama. Now, granted it was just Presidents Day, but darn she can remember stuff!</p> <p>LO2 (15 m) waved bye to me the other day when I grabbed my purse to leave. Crazy that she knew that when I get my purse I'm leaving. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lo-is-grow-up-to-fast-because#post-2464832 Wed, 17 Feb 2016 16:11:25 +0000 Smurfette 2464832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: Was just going to say the same thing.
