Is your LO more of a busy body or a lazy bones?
My older LO is 3 and she is pretty content relaxing on the couch, cuddling up to read, watching a show, drawing, etc. My youngest LO is so busy, she is always on the go, getting into things and causing trouble! I'm thankful she still takes naps 
She is getting a little bit better as she gets older though.

Depends if the TV is on or not. On? Lazy. Off? Busy body.

Busy. And not very cuddly, generally speaking. But she's great at independent play, so I just let her do her things most of the time.

Both LOs do not know the meaning of lazy. Sigh. I can only blame myself, I guess. I am a total busy body.

Busy busy busy!
Even as a newborn he was constantly in motion, never able to keep a swaddle or any kind of blanket on him. All action, all the time. Also, requires very little sleep and fuel, haha

He's kind of a happy medium. Like me. I guess. Although he's usually busy when I need him to be lazy and lazy when I need him to busy himself. lol

Busy. My 3.5 yo generally never stops moving. However, he has moments where he loves to snuggle up and read with me.

Very very busy, unless the TV is on. But she's great at independent play so that's a bonus.

Super busy. She cant even watch TV without jumping on the sofa, spinning around, wiping greasy fingers up the screen and giving me a running commentary.
I'm hoping for a lazy bones for number 2!

Busy. I wouldn't stand for a lazy child, honestly. This should be the most energetic time of their lives, and I encourage that.

My oldest is a busy body, but she's starting to get into quiet tasks like coloring or playing memory, so that's a huge help for me. But, 90% of the time, she would rather just run around the house, screaming in excitement, trying to get her sister to chase her.... my poor ears lol
My youngest is usually pretty content relaxing, but she is starting to get more busy. We'll see how this pans out.

@Andrea: @rachiecakes: We have the opposite problem. Both my SO and I are homebodies/lazy and we have the BUSIEST child EVER. She doesn't need much sleep and is always on the go, she refuses to be held or cuddled. It is exhausting and she is only 8 months old 
I am dreading when she is walking and talking!! Lol

@mrswin: I could write this excactly except DS is almost 3y/o. He's super busy. Can't imagine how lo2 is going to sleep once she's born.

As one of our daycare teachers put it, "your LO moves enough for three kids."

Busy body to the max. My similar age niece is a lazy bones and the two of them are pretty hilarious to watch! My niece seems to watch DD like "wtf...chill out!" And DD is like "but it's all so fun and exciting! Aren't you excited?!"

Busy, busy, busy, busy, busy! Did I mention she was always busy?!!! Up until recently, she was very bad at sleep, because there was too much to do. But she also loves to cuddle, and she wants you right there with her while she does All the Things. It's exhausting!
