To want to squash my DD...

[tethersjinglebellend]

...Because I love her SO MUCH?

She is 12 months old and I think it's only just hit me how much I love her.

I also want to eat her feet.

Is that even normal?

AIBU?

Oooh yes, lot's of squidging and eating and squealing goes on here too, by both myself and DH.
In fact I regularly see DD2 wadling round with a little red rash on her face from daddy's prickly beard!

LOL! I thought this thread was about a child who had done something so unbelievably awful that his/her mother wanted to squash it!

Instead, it's just lovely!

I must admit that my DS drives me mad, and is quite aggressive at times (and very strong), but when he says "aaah" and throws his arms around my neck, I do need to cuddle him. And this afternoon, in the carol service, he was up and about all the time, putting the boot in to my tummy when I was holding him for the sitting-down bits, etc. But he did try to join in with the carols by "aaah-ing" loudly, and - for We Three Kings - did a rather tuneless, baby rendition of Twinkle Twinkle. He is lovely. I want to kiss him now, but he's asleep. Never mind, I'll have my chance later, as he wakes up every night (still, after a year and a half...).

Mumsnet, we really need a half-and-half face for the ambivalence of motherhood! Half crying, half laughing, comedy/tragedy masks.

My DD2 is 3 and she is particularly yummy - esp her cheeks...

I frequently want to eat her...

I think its God's way of ensuring the race survives - she has this knack of looking at her most edible at just the point where I'm going to sell her.

awwww what a lovely lovely thread, I often browse AIBU threads when I can't sleep but never dare to post! Nice squishy baby cuteness. I often think whether I kiss my bubs too much, on average a squillion times a day. Merry christmas and happy baby squishing xxx

Good grief. Yes. Feet eating is perfectly OK. Now DSs are age 7 and 9 I had forgotten how much I wanted to eat their little feet when they were babies. They used to love have 'raspberries' blown on the soles of their feet. Made me broody now.

It'll pass once they start niggling and fighting later!

YANBU
Have bought my gorgeous DS1 who is nearly 15 YEARS (not months) this lovely top and he's just like a big teddy bear .Am having to restrict myself to one hug an hour !

YANBU the slightest.
I'm often amazed that our 2 year old twins are not eaten up and cuddled up as they are .... well, absolutely edible and the most gorgeous and fabulous and adorable and awwwwwwwwww........most loved little boys in the Universe[I'm allowed to say that 'coz they are mine youknow]
[goes off to have a cuddle]

Merry Christmas to all!

oh, reading this thread is making me well up.

My ds is 7, and I miss him being a baby/chubby little toddler so much. He was jumping up and down on the sofa the other day in his pants, and I noticed that he has all of a sudden lost that toddler body shape and now looks like a proper big boy IYKWIM.

ah my 5 almost almost 6 ds is awesome and delicious

though he hid behind a chair at bedtime tonight and said NO KISSING and then DON'T KISS DADDY EITHER and then I WILL KISS YOU BUT NOT IN A USUAL WAY and ran the length of the room to lick my cheek.

God i love him.
