Milestones or guidelines

My not so baby brother graduates from Varsity in the UK. This is very exciting for us all as a family. The excitement is "road-trip" and not the relief that my brother actually passes. Planning has been fun to a degree to think Bebe A is going to be a year old when we travel. Wow I cant even imagine that so many milestones to reach till we get there, sitting, feeding, crawling and so on and so on. I really do try not to wish her little life away especially as, my little hippy child is pretty chilled at reaching her milestones.

I personally think milestones can be a stressful for a mommy. I do use it as a guideline and find it quite useful, but I will not get stressed about it (and boy can I get stressed), as one of my friends recently told me the kids all get to where they need to be eventually - that "Piece" or should I say "Peace" of advice just made sense.

I cannot believe my baby is going to be 5 months old on Saturday and shoo is she loving the sound of her voice, big conversations are had by anyone willing to even look at her direction. I on the other hand am gearing up to starting the next stage of mommyhood - "feeding the bebe" yes I have a month left but my little one is hungry and that is just on formula.


And in honour of Dr. Seuss's birthday month in March here is a quote

"The more that you read, the more things you will know.
The more that you learn, the more places you'll go."
- Dr. Seuss
