What's your favorite age?

[escapethevillage]

I've loved all the ages so far. But, i'd have to say I most enjoyed the Kindergarten through 5th grade age the most.

All of them! But I really love kids and teens in general.

They all have wonderful things about their ages. All of them.

Newborn. Oldest is 6, then 4yo, and 5mo. Well I guess the first year is my favorite. I love love love babies. Not digging the tantrums or the drama of older kiddos right now. But I have a feeling 7 or 8+ things will get more fun. But then again I have three sons so IDK if I can look forward to maturity until like... ohhh... 28 or so?

My DS is not quite 2.5, DD is only 8 months. I'm loving the 2's - it's a whirlwind but so much fun! I adore DD, but am eager to see what she's like in a year or so.

Newborn.. then 0-18 months, then 0-3. Its neat to watch them explore, learn and figure out the world. But, when they are newborn, they are just so sweet and snuggly.

I love love newborns and really enjoy the first year except for the lack of sleep part and my son was a pretty hard intense baby. I also like 12-18 months. They can throw tantrums and be difficult but they are still pretty baby like and they are discovering lots of new things and can understand and respond more and more. I love when they first discover how to walk.

With my older two I didn't love 18 month until 2.5 stage that much. My oldest dd is very emotional and it was intense when she wasn't talking yet but understood everything we said. She started talking after 2 and settled down a little at 2.5. She is still emotional and intense but it isn't what it was then and she has gotten maturer in some ways. My son also wasn't talking then and he was crazy. He was all over the place and had no fear. He would walk off playground equipment if I wasn't right there with him. He is still active and very sensory oriented but at that age when he could not talk he was crazy and he did not know his own strength. He also had a biting then a scratching phase during those ages. That was hard and sooo embarrassing.

Once my older two finally picked up talking like they were never behind things got a lot better. Now with my youngest I actually am loving the 18 months to 2.5 stage. She is getting a little testy and is opinionated but it is no where near as intense as my other two. She also talks a little and I love it. She is not ahead with language but I love hearing a 1 year old saying words it is so cute and I did not get to experience it with my other 2. I liked 3 for both of my kids. There has been pluses and minuses to each stage. I wish I could have more so I can experience more phases at the same time.

My oldest is 5 and I think that may be my favorite age. He can read and has a long attention span and we have really great conversations. He's like a real person, lol. My 3 yr old is fantastic, she is well behaved, no tantrums, but she's in that stage between baby and kid where she's too old for a lot of things and too young for a lot of things. The 1yr old is sweet and cuddly, but he can walk and get into trouble.

My oldest is 5 and I think it's my favorite age so far. Disciplining him is so tiring though, and it really makes me appreciate the innocent-ness of my 13 month old. I am really not a fan of the first year. The lack of sleep and effort to go anywhere gets to me, it is rough!

I have a 5 year old , 2 year old, and 8 mo old. There is something fun at every age, but I guess my favorite would have to be 18 months to 2 years. My dd is 2 right now, and she is just so much fun!

6 and up. I really struggle with the 18-36 month age.
