Sunday ‘messy’ fun 🫣

Anyone’s else’s little one not like being spoon fed?

Whilst feeding my princess she decided she wanted to do it herself and kept trying to grab the spoon and would get frustrated when I took it back. I ended up giving up and just letting her do it herself.

Lesson learnt, be prepared for anything as did not expect to be wearing butternut squash this afternoon 🙈🤣

Also anyone else’s 6mo have attitude already?

Oh mine has the biggest attitude already!!! Screams the house down when we have food and she doesn’t, or when she tried to grab our phones😂 she always wants to feed herself so she gets things like toast etc. my partner took her toast out of her hand this morning to put it in her mouth and you’d think he tried to kill her, I was like honestly just leave her she’s miss independent at 6 months old😂😂😂 all fun & games and part of the learning process for them I guess!

Yep. Same here. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I have a girl also

Haha seems we have our work cut out for us, oh my don’t even get me started on the phone grabbing! 😫😂

Yes!! My friend told me to use two spoons so they have one and you preload the next one for them and hand it to them so they always have one spoon in their hand and can’t complain!

Yes, my LO gets so bored of just sitting there and being fed. I’ve started giving her something to hold (toasted bread or a toy) so she can have her hands occupied. When she opens her mouth to put the toy/ bread in, I sneak a spoon of purée in 😂

Oh yeah my little boy loves to feed himself with the spoon, I have to give him a spoon to hold in each hand if I try to spoon feed him 😅

Is this normal?

Is it just my husband that does this? He is able to work from home via his computer and in the mornings and evenings he is on there doing his job. When he is done for the day he tends to stay in the room and either play video games or watch something. He will occasionally come out and play with the girls for a few minutes and that’s it but when I really need him he says he is busy. My daughters are both 1 year old now and I am just wondering how much involvement should he have with them now?
Idk if this is the norm or not…..

5 month old activities

Hey everyone my baby is 5 months old and I want to reduce/cut screen time as I have read up on how bad it is what activities did people do to keep their baby entertained. Thank you in advance.

Thoughts?

your soon to be brother in law (upon inquiry) told you that only a few kids from the family were attending his wedding because they are over the age cut off..

Tablet for kids

Alright don’t need any negative Nancy’s telling me not to get my 2yo a tablet so if that’s what your gunna do please don’t participate in my poll.

We’re about to move cross country 3+ day trip and my 2yo and 9m hate the car I’m talking scream their heads off till they are out of their seats. We’ve already changed car seats and it didn’t help so I’d like to at least have one entertained and sit next to baby and try and distract her or put her to sleep. Our new car has tvs but since they are rear faced my 2yo can’t see it.

Debating getting her a tablet or dvd player right now on long car rides I end up giving her my phone because I get so overwhelmed sitting in between both of them screaming and crying.

And yes I do bring different toys I bring snacks I play songs try to distract her other ways but for the sake of not losing my mind on this move I think this is best.

-A very overwhelmed and anxious to move mama 😓

My friend is over from another country but I don't feel like leaving the house

One of my old friend's is visiting where I currently live and we agreed to meet up today but I feel so tired and exhausted from everything that's been going on with me. I feel if I meet her I'm going to end up having another breakdown from the exhaustion which I have been having often. I'm just thinking about how I need to rest to be able to deal with my toddler and go back to work on Monday without feeling like I need another weekend. I'm torn on what to do so I need you guys to help me decide
