What a lovely brood! I also have babies born in fall of 2006 and 2008 (both October, a day apart in fact). How have your two older ones adapted to the new addition?

Re: 2006 Toddlers

I have a both 2006 (june) and 2008 (oct) babies. I also have a seven year old daughter. I found some problems adjusting which shocked me. We were expecting the two year old to have problems with the new baby or possibly the seven year old to be a bit jealous because she has been the only girl in the enitre family up to that point but no the seven year became jealous of the two year old. She didn't want to talk to or be around him anymore she told me (and her teacher) that I spend all of my time with him and not with her. (he is a very needy two year old so she was correct) The funny thing was these feelings never came out until the new baby was born. The seven year old is getting better and I saw her holding his hand last night.

Re: 2006 Toddlers

I know exactly what you mean. My daughter when she was 7 was jealous of son at the time who was just born. It's an adjustment but they usually will move past it. Now my son is 9 and I have a new son that's almost 5 months and I was expecting the 9 yr old to be jealous because he has been my baby for so long. (daughter is now 16) he is totally not at all. he loves his baby brother so much. He goes to school and tells everyone how he is a big brother. he helps me all the time with his bath and getting diapers etc. So try to include your 7 yr old and make her feel like you really need her help and that should help. Good luck.

Re: 2006 Toddlers

I'm just giving you a shout out Amanda I see you when I'm on the baby center, you will not recognize me on this sight because they use my email name but on the baby center I'm Kimdricks. Have you noticed that the baby center is way busier than our 365? I have been over here trying to connect with different mothers from all birth months because my sept month mom's aren't writing in. Don't get me wrong I work full time so I'm busy too but I have a job that allows me to how should I say...do what I want as long as my work get's done so that's when I'm usually on back and forth through the day. I'm hardly ever on on the weekends when I'm home because that's my family time. talk to you later. :)

Amanda, I had you mixed up with someone else! LOL....I keep accusing you of being on the baby center but I had you mixed up with someone else. It's a pretty cool sight also so I chat there also. :)

Re: 2006 Toddlers

Mine is actually an April 2006 baby but there's no one else there. I have a soon-to-be three year old girl. Has anyone else had a problem with mouthiness from a 2 yr old? It's not just the norm either, at least I don't think so, I've also got a soon-to-be 4 yr old in May, but he hasn't been near as outspoken as her. No matter what I say to her I always get some kind of remark back. Like I tell her I love her and she says "you love me? Ok." I mean come on! She is a mama's girl in every way so why am I getting the back talk?

Re: 2006 Toddlers

Is she just a chatterbox/talking all the time, or is she truly being nasty in her replies? Is she just echoing things you say?
