OK- I know....babies are nifty cuz you donot have to wonder if they are getting arrested when out of your line of vision. Or if they are riding in a car with some crummy bad driver. Or shoplifting......or any of those other scary things. They wear what you pick out. they do not sneak out at nite. They do not call you names. They (usually) let you fuss with their hair. Their hair is not some strange color. You can talk funny and babble at them and noone seems to think you are weird for doing so. you can sway when you hold one and noone wonders what you are doing and why. You can rock your leg up and down when they are on your lap and noone tells you about the newest medication for restless leg syndrome. If you look bad, you can tell people the baby kept you awake all nite. Baby spit up is a lot easier to deal with than........a 17 year olds.....
Crawling children cannot get as far as fast as 16 yr olds with a drivers license.
Yeah 6-12 months is pretty cool!
