So, sometime in the past couple of months, my son decided that I must be really good to sink his 4 teeth into because it seems like that's all he wants to do now! And it freaking hurts! This also goes along with pulling my hair, slapping me in the face & chest and using me as his personal human jungle gym. My guess is that you've dealt with some of this too?
I need your help. I could use your suggestions on if and what I can do something to get the biting to stop. My son is now 11 months old, is it too early to "punish" him? What did you do to make your child stop? Or do I just let this ride out because it's just a thing?
In the meantime, I will try my best to enjoy the daily beat up I get because it means that my son can move and shake. I am glad that he is growing like he is and I'd rather get bitten than him not be able to do these things. Thanks in advance for your advice!
Happy Friday Friends! It's been a quick week at our house and I'm sure that this weekend will go by just as fast! I am attending the Red Barn Outdoor Market with my aunt-in-law tomorrow and I couldn't be more excited! There are going to be SO many awesome vendors and things to look at, I am going to be in sensory overload! If you would like to check it out, here's the facebook event page.
I was tagged, along with other bloggers, by my SIL/BFF MakeMeUpMia in the Sisterhood of the World Bloggers Award! She gave us some questions to answer then I will tag 10 bloggers with 10 questions of my own...let's keep it going :)
1. What made you start your blog? I started my blog years ago for more of a journal but I got more serious with it last year when I joined up with the Rural Housewives. I loved what they were doing and felt that it would a perfect outlet for me while I made the transition to stay-at-home mom. I enjoy the connection that I have with other bloggers and readers since I am, literally, in the middle of nowhere and don't get that interaction like I did when I lived in the city.
2. Current favorite song, you know, the one that you crank up in the car?
Oh geez, I love music! So this one is hard for me to pick...I would say that the one song I always turn up in the car (if little man isn't with me) is Fade Away by Breaking Benjamin.
3. If you could only pick 1 beverage for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Hmmm...and not have to worry about sugar affecting my body? Pepsi.
Enjoy my favorite throwback commercial with my favorite lady!
4. Dream job & why?
I currently have my dream job as a stay-at-home mom. I do, however, have a new aspiration...creating custom Kansas jewelry! We'll see if it happens!
5. You have 1 totally free YOU day, what would your day consist of? Traveling somewhere new, shopping, spa and fancy food!
6. Favorite trip you've ever been on? My husband and I joke that we had our "honeymoon" before we got married. We took a cruise to the Caribbean and really enjoyed it! It was my first real tropical trip and it was with the man that I love...pure bliss!
7. You had a million dollars handed to you, first thing you do? Pay off debt!
8. Tell me something you love about yourself. I can get along with all types of people and enjoy many things in life.
9. What store do you shop at most (non grocery)? Online - Amazon (hands down the best for living in the country) In-store - Hobby Lobby or Bath & Body Works 10. Favorite recipe & make sure you share ;) Chocolate Chips Cookies! Here's the recipe from their website. I substitute butter with regular Crisco and add a 1/4 tsp of water while mixing. I also line foil on the pan with Crisco. These were my grandma's secrets so you are privileged to get the scoop ;)
Here are your questions! No pressure to do this, just thought it would be neat to hear from you :)
1. What do you like most about blogging?
2. If you could eat anything all of the time, what would it be?
3. You are with your 18 year old self, what do you say?
