The baby is no longer a baby. She is officially a toddler, as she has progressed to the next room at the daycare. The toddler room. Where they wear shoes [we only have one pair that fits], sleep on nap-mats, and drink from sippy cups. She’s a big girl!! Jenna finally learned how to walk, which was fantastic to see. Within one week, she was walking, climbing out of beds, and attempting to open the door. I swear this next statement is not made up: she was doing the hand gestures for the “Itsy Bitsy Spider” song!! They were wreckless and off-beat, but I KNEW that she was doing it!!
So yes, she is VERY smart…but compared to ALL of our friends who have babies, she’s a genius like the rest of them. We have a significant number of friends with babies around Jenna’s age. They all have their own special tricks, capabilities, and talents. And like Jenna, I am sure that they stick their finger in the nose, stick out their tounge, and pass-gas in public! All the babies are perfect in their own ways.
You would think as a parent, you wouldn’t start being competitive with your offspring when they are at this age…YOU WOULD THINK. I am not naming names but there is one person I know, who proceeded to take competition between my kid and their kid, to an unmentionable level. Let’s just say that I was told, at a family event, that my 1 year old can CURSE! Imagine that! My own little sailor. Well, if you saw her learn to walk, she did look like a intoxicated sailor. So sure, XXXXXX [not mentioning this idiot’s name]…jenna dropped the F-BOMB! Thank you for announcing this fictious statement to an entire group of people.
I guess my kid is the SMARTEST of all the kids out there….
