We have quite a range of ages and they each develop at their own rates... so what can your toddler do?

Just as well I am stuck in the house. I would like to wring his wrinkly old neck!

I have moved onto Queen and Freddy

Freddie? Freddie.

Freddie

I love Queen, and Abba and Prince

Hi ladies, long time lurker and name changer. Used to be katkit1. It's nice reading about what stages the babies are at.
Alexander 20/11
Walked at 10 months
Not stopped since (not even 3 seconds to allow nappy changes)
He climbs everywhere and has no sense of danger
Will feed himself using hands and a spoon but it's quite hit and miss
Can say mamma, dada, Charlie (cat), granny
Is just starting to build blocks instead of destroy
Can unscrew lids of anything inc 1.5 Ltrs of orange juice
He's starting to understand music and will bob his knees a little

Hey fiatpandababba welcome back

Dd 7th October
Walked at 13 months
Waves and claps
Does actions for twinkle twinkle and wind the bobbin
Uses a fork and spoon
Fetches her favourite book
Tries to put her shoes on
Brushes her hair
Babbles away but no definate words yet

Hi fiatpanda

Oh and she doesn't like hates her new baby sister
Covers her ears when she cries and barely even looks at her

When did the sodding OU become so inflexible?

Welcome back Fiat

And I love that your LO bobs his knees a little

LO bobs up and down on the spot too. The end of programme dance on in the night garden is a Family Event with many tears if there isn't one that episode.

From you or them PR?

I most post a video of O dancing - it's bloody hilarious

I'm in Manchester!

J is 31/10 baby... Halloween
He doesn't walk or talk
He can say mum and random said burger the other day following his first burger king!
He can climb stairs, and chairs and tables etc
he can sleep in his cot!

Dd walked at 17 months but spoke well very early. I'm not concerned they are all so different!

DH mainly vq it's terrible :o

pr what's wrong with Ou?
Welcome back fiat
Where is isles?

Hi fiat

Isles I hope you laughed in his face

R has a canine explains the rubbish napping, anyhow! I decamped to my mum who packed me off to bed with a sandwich, fed R, played with him and got another 30 minutes sleep out of him in the pushchair. I still don't feel human again but a hot bath will fix that once I've forced some dinner down. Off to the ILs again this weekend, then back on the parent-all-day-work-all-evening grindstone come Monday I don't even have any

Lily I wanted to put a module I did a few years ago to a degree in French and German and cut out the two lower French modules because there's not much point in me doing them, but they won't let me.

I can use it towards law, psychology or history, but I wanted a language degree to open up options if ever I move back to the UK. IT WOULD HAVE SAVED ME A FAIR AMOUNT OF pointless effort not to mention the cost of a 60 point module.

Oops caps lock error wasn't shouting.

pidj I had a very blonde moment and forgot canine was teeth then. Thought you were saying he had the expression of a shocked dog and spent a moment trying to work it out.

Oh ok. Just because I find Ou brilliant and helpful, not everyone experiences the same. Hope you can find a solution. I'm so glad I'm still on transitional fees.

E born on 9/11
She can say duck (over and over again), baby, splash and hot. But mainly babbles and says duck.
She can walk with a walker or holding my hand but no independent steps. She has stood unaided a couple of times.
She sings (I use the word loosely) row row your boat, wind the bobbin up, head shoulders etc and if you're happy and you know it. She also loves a good boogie (the itng dance is also a fave here pr , I've only saved the recorded ones with it in to avoid disappointment).
She shakes her head and waggles her finger at her big sis when she is doing something she doesn't like, failing that she just bites her

DD1 was walking at 11 months and hasn't stopped since. Her first word was also duck, at 13 months.

Want to know what and who chasing is doing this weekend.

The loveliest o clock ever.

Hi fiatpanda welcome back. I too like a bit of knee bobbing.

stormy just one more sleep to go.

Ok so, properly...

O born at 08:29 on 8th of Nov 2012, the day after his due date and the anniversary of the day I became mummyless
He can say "bye bye" "eee awwww" which means see saw, "dada" "mama" and he can sign milk (I am working on please, eat, nappy and, more)
He started walking on 5th December
If I don't give him what he wAnts he lays his forehead on his forearm and whimpers
He climbs everything and likes to swing off the sink
He is full of mischief and us going to be trouble
