Adventures with a Four Month Old

Sweet P received his first TWO teeth within one day of each other.  Both in his Fourth Month (aye-yaye-yaye).

Look closely, you can see one of his little toofers on the left
and you can barely see the top of his other one on the right.

He's not really understanding this new word "NO". (I do breast feed - so put two & two together) He laughs when I say that to him.  And since it's a new facial expression also, that's funny to him....he actually tries to mimic me.

Any advice from you moms experienced in this area can give me, is GREATLY appreciated!

It's true that parents are the ones who teach their children bad habits.  Before having one, we all say "I would never do...." but truth is, all those "I would nevers" go out the window as soon as your little one is laughing and smiling at you.  That being the case, the Hubs and I taught Sweet P a bad habit - already!  

Yup, we sure did! We taught him to stick his tongue out and blow.... He loves it!  And we laugh and laugh and tell him how cute he is and how smart and...and Oh Boy! this is going to bite us in the hiney later when we have to teach him to "stop, it's rude".

Look what we're doing!  We're already causing our little munchkin to need therapy for his upbringing.

Of course, we are trying to teach some good habits like learning to crawl!  We use a rubber ball and roll him back and forth on it.  And most recently, we've put him on the mombo and he rocks on it - it's sooo cute!

What sorts of bad good habits do you teach your kids?  Or bad good habits your parents taught you?

I would love to hear some fun stories!
