Quoting Kimber's Mommy:" just terrible. it sounds like your kid is doomed to a life of failure. what a shame."

  Shoot, he may not be the star quarterback but I bet you he'll be getting paid to do his homework hahaha

LOL. he may end up doing both, who knows?

Quoting Kimber's Mommy:" LOL. he may end up doing both, who knows? "

He may. He's a thinker big time. He analyzes stuff. He's always been very alert and watching everything. I just started working on colors with him and he already gets red, green and blue right most of the time and he's not even 11 months yet.

So... Yeah, I'd get the plug in lol

We'd run out of batteries at the most inopportune times  

Get the plug in! It has saved us a ton on batteries. DS loves it and does a ton of tummy time each day. And he's all on track with development and his doctor is very pleased. Don't listen to that twat up on her high horse.

i'm a terrible mother. i should have been doing that with DD. she analyzes things alot too, like her daddy. ugh... i suck at this mothering thing. i can make her happy and healthy, but i don't think i'm doing super great at the developing thing. lol. she's smart, but i could have been pushing her along. i just don't think of any of these things. ugh, i feel like a dumbass. lol.

I didn't start until the other day. We still don't read much because he's too interested in beating on the books and crawling off lol. We were in the bath the other night and I figured "what the hell" and held up his 3 flutes that are green, red and blue. I told him the colors once, and asked him probably at least 10 times which one was ____________ and he only got it wrong like twice. Switched to other toys of the same color, and he got it right probably 6 out of 10. So we have been doing it more. I figure once he gets those down we'll try yellow purple and orange.

oooh, that's cool. i'll try that.
DD is into books just recently. she points at the pictures and just listens.

I tried to read him one of my special ones from when I was little today with amazing paintings... He beat it and ripped it away from me lol

I'm not saying to not get a swing & never put your child in one....
Like I said my son used a swing as well, not until he was 6 months old but he still used one. 12+ hours of swing time is excessive though...
And maybe I am a judgemental bitch   what of it? At least I didn't stick my infant in a swing all damn day.

but you came back to argue on a thread that hasn't been active in a couple of weeks?

Yup, I don't check Babygaga every single day. I have things to do like oh go to class and do my school work so I can get my degree this summer, go to work so I can pay the bills, take care of my 19 month old. I'm sorry do you not have a life?

HA. why yes, i do.
i think it's pretty stupid that you're coming back to an old thread and start it back up again.
i'm sorry, do you not have a life?

Ummm she asked why I commented on a thread that's been inactive, I am just now seeing the replies because I'm not on babygaga every single day....
Are you mentally challenged? I thought the point was pretty obvious? lol
