Why can't they invent...

• Socks that stay on
• Disposable car seat covers
• Children's music that's not about sandwiches, the alphabet, or sharing
• A self-cleaning house
• Pacifiers that sterilize themselves when they fall on the ground

His first sign

Yay! After so many months of teaching him sign language, he finally, at the age of 9 months, gave his first sign ' Milk'. I was so excited and asked him to sign again, but boy he wouldn't. So I gave him his sippy cup and again for his next meal, I was waiting eagerly to see if he really knew how to sign and this time he did. Oh! It was such a delight to see him sign his first sign.

The baby sign language has been so helpful. Its a rescue for parents to understand what the baby wants before they start to speak, especially when their only medium of communication is through crying. Once they start to master those signs, there is less frustration and also it improves language development. So for all those new parents out there, invest some time in teaching your baby sign language. Trust me, its fun for both the parents and the baby.

First post

Its so amazing to be a mother. Its such a thrilling experiece I must say and ofcourse the perks that come with it. I am a first time mom with a 9 month old baby who keeps me on my toes all the time. Even though I don't work, this is more work than the regular 9-5 job. I get time only when he sleeps. But not all days are the same eh! I think this is the same story with every first time mom.

I hope the experiences that I share here help the other first time moms and ofcourse the moms who have been through and know it all, please share your experiences/moments here.
