Its a new year and we all know what that means! Thats right, new goals. I have a few in mind but really the biggest thing holding me back is I think they are hard. Am I a baby or what? I set some pritty lofty goals for myself this year and already I am doubting myself. Maybe thats a bad sign. But I plan on taking it one day at a time and working hard to achive my goals this year. (Never mind the fact that I was thinking about doing the no sugar thing for the month of January and failed 20 minutes after I woke up this morning) My biggest problem is weeding out all the things I need to work on and finding the MOST important things for the year. I have alot of ideas on what I need to improve in.
On another note, remember when I told you my baby was walking (2 MONTHS AGO)? Well he decided he is going to do things on his own terms and not anyone elses. He has just in the last 2 weeks started to stand on his own and take 3-4 steps by himself. I am also getting somewhat frustrated with all the 'seasoned' moms out there telling me I should be greatful my baby isnt walking because its way easier when they cant get into things. Well let me tell you, my baby is a better climber than anything and he doesnt need to be walking to push a chair out from under the table and be on top of the table in NO time flat! He already reaches up high and gets into EVERYTHING. I just dont see how him growing and developing is going to complicate my life. I love watching him grow and learn and if that means moving onto the walking stage and me having to saftguard my house a little more then I will just grow and learn along with him. AND you cant tell me that if you saw every other baby at Baby and Me class walking like a pro while yours was still trying to figure it all out, you wouldnt be a little upset too! I know my little man is in no way delayed or behind, but in a world where young moms brag about how many teeth their little one has or that their 2 year old can could to 100, I feel a little left behind. I'll get over it soon enough. That was just my rant.

I hear you cassidy, Even "seasoned moms" if I could dare to call myself that, feel bad for our little ones being alittle behind, My oldest still wasn't walking at 14 months when I had a newborn! And My littlest is a year old in 2 weeks, and hes only been "real" crawling for a month and pulling himself up for a couple weeks, he still hates sitting up, and I constantly have people comparing him to his cousin who is 3 months younger, but doing all those things either better or before him. You just have to remember, that by the time he starts school, he will do all the things all the other kids his age do, maybe not as well, or maybe better, but doing them none the less, and thats all that matters.
