I'm very independent but a lot of that is because I had to be. I don't confide in my parents at all. I go to them for business-type advice for the most part. I don't want to have that kind of relationship with my child. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-things-that-you-want-to-improve-about-yourself-as-a-parent#post-659852 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 20:46:17 +0000 immabeetoo 659852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Working so hard on patience. I try to remind myself that Ben though he's only four months I'm modeling what behaviors I want him to have! When it comes on working on his sleep I'm trying to model patience and perseverance haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-things-that-you-want-to-improve-about-yourself-as-a-parent#post-659794 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 20:32:35 +0000 Sweet T 659794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I need to cut back on tv time. I stopped watching while DS was awake for several months but it has slowly crept back into our days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-things-that-you-want-to-improve-about-yourself-as-a-parent#post-659783 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 20:30:21 +0000 MrsStar 659783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to be more patient - I get frustrated too easily in the middle of the night when lo feeds and doesn't go back to sleep easily. I also want to enjoy her more - I seem to forget that they don't stay this age forever so I want to enjoy each new stage and milestone. She already seems to be growing too fast and she's only 6 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-things-that-you-want-to-improve-about-yourself-as-a-parent#post-659762 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 20:26:51 +0000 mrs. wagon 659762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to start cooking again. And not just spaghetti and meatballs (sauce from a jar and frozen meatballs). It's so hard and I'm so exhausted every day, but I just have to figure out how to make it work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-things-that-you-want-to-improve-about-yourself-as-a-parent#post-659756 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 20:26:00 +0000 Weagle 659756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Patience, for sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-things-that-you-want-to-improve-about-yourself-as-a-parent#post-659754 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 20:25:39 +0000 Mrs. Pen 659754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to cut back on TV time... for myself and DS. It's just so hard to find enough activities to fill our day in the winter. I'm SO bored! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-things-that-you-want-to-improve-about-yourself-as-a-parent#post-659750 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 20:24:28 +0000 travelgirl1 659750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely the phone thing. I also want to be braver; I have a hard time staying strong for her when she's crying through ultrasounds and I would love to change that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-things-that-you-want-to-improve-about-yourself-as-a-parent#post-659737 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 20:23:16 +0000 Honeybee 659737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to be more deliberate in my choices. I often just make a parenting choice to get the decision made and even though that has worked out fine so far, I'd like to be a little slower and more deliberate in my choices. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-some-things-that-you-want-to-improve-about-yourself-as-a-parent#post-659701 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 20:17:01 +0000 Mrs. Bee 659701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to be more present. Totally guilty of being on my phone when playing with the kids.</p> <p>I want to be more patient. The whining! The whining! I just have no patience for it.</p> <p>What about you? </p>
