How do we know when our LO’s have outgrown their shoes? Or they’re getting too snug?

It’s been nearly 5 months ish since then and he is still wearing the same shoes, they still go on easily and he walks without issues however I wanted to get him...

It’s soooo...

Milestones

So my LG is 6 months in 11 days, she’s not rolling over at all yet (she has once or twice) but no matter how much we try and encourage it, just a no go!

✨toddler✨

On today’s episode of ✨toddler✨, my 1 year old had a crying fit (tantrum in other words) because she saw the moon in the sky, and wanted to take it home.

Hitting

Does anyone have anything that can help with hitting? My 15 month old likes to hit when he gets told no or gets in trouble. It’s normally directed towards me since I’m with him the most but has gotten much for physical with friends and family.

Can't say mama 😔
