Do you sing lullabies to your baby? No, we sing lots of more upbeat songs though. I'm a bad singer and I just cant do the lullabies. Sometimes I hum to her when she's going to sleep, or read a book very softly.
Do you use baby detergent? no
Does your baby have a temper? Yupp
Does your baby like the swing? She likes the travel swing but not the regular one.
Do you have a hard time getting your child dressed after he/she takes a bath?
She's pretty easy going about it but in the past week or so she pulls her legs up and swings them back and forth a lot.
What solid food are you starting first? No idea...probably try the baby food fruits or the cereal mixed with BM but Ethan never ate baby food at all, he barely ate anything until he was about a year old!
Do you sing lullabies to your baby? I have certain songs I sing to her (when no one is around because I canNOT sing lol) and she loves it, and usually calms her down/puts her to sleep. Not lullabies, but I sing I could not ask for more (which was sung at our wedding), I don't wanna miss a thing (I use to sing that to Ethan when he was in the NICU), When you say nothing at all, and a few others. <3 It's our special thing.
Do you use baby detergent? No, we use all free and clear on everything except the cloth diapers and use original tide powder on them.
Does your baby have a temper? Yes!
Does your baby like the swing? Sometimes, getting to where she likes it more lately, esp when she's sleepy it will put her on to sleep. Yay!
Do you have a hard time getting your child dressed after he/she takes a bath? Yes! She LOVES bath time but afterward gets SO ill!!

Thank you .h00dihoo.this. for my AWESOME siggies!!
What solid food are you starting first? We already started mixing rice cereal in with bm. Does that count? ;p I guess good ol' baby foods will be next. Do you sing lullabies to your baby? All the time. She always gets really quiet when I sing to her. Hush Little Baby is the one I sing most. I like You are my Sunshine too. Do you use baby detergent? Yes, we use Dreft. Does your baby have a temper? Lol, if she's hungry and you're not feeding her... watch out!! Does your baby like the swing? She does, but not for very long. She likes it for about 10-15 minutes. I like to put her in it when I'm cleaning, and she mostly just watches me. Do you have a hard time getting your child dressed after he/she takes a bath? Lyra is starting to like the bath, but once I take her out, she is not happy. I try to dry her and dress her as fast as possible, but she usually cries the whole time anyway.
What solid food are you starting first? Have not decided yet. Do you sing lullabies to your baby? I sing all sorts of songs. Do you use baby detergent? Nope. Does your baby have a temper? Nope but he can be something of a drama king. Does your baby like the swing? He used to love it but now he doesn't mind it. Do you have a hard time getting your child dressed after he/she takes a bath? I have a hard time getting him dressed after anything that involves nudity. Which is a HUGE difference when he'd scream the most awful scream when you tried to undress him during the first week.
What solid food are you starting first? Rice Cereal. We might start at 4 months because the pediatrician said he wants to see if starting solids will help his reflex so he can go off his medicine.
Do you sing lullabies to your baby? No. I sang like crazy with Natalie and she loved it. Mason only likes dh to sing to him. Lol
Do you use baby detergent? No. I use an all natural detergent though.
Does your baby have a temper? For the most part he is a very easy going baby, but when he wants something he definitely lets us know.
Does your baby like the swing? For a little while. He's about to out grow it.

Do you have a hard time getting your child dressed after he/she takes a bath? nope. He's usually in a good mood after a bath and then has a nap shortly after. He's not a fan of having lotion put on him though
What solid food are you starting first? Likely the rice cereal. Do you sing lullabies to your baby? The chorus to "Angels Among Us" and "When God Made You" are two songs I sing often to him, among many others. I don't have a beautiful voice, but that doesn't keep me from singing. Do you use baby detergent? No. Does your baby have a temper? In the evenings just before bedtime, he's usually not a happy camper. Does your baby like the swing? Only for 5 minutes, tops.

Do you use baby detergent? I did at first, but not anymore
Does your baby have a temper? YES!

What solid food are you starting first? Probably rice cereal followed by any mild veggie other than carrots. Jaleigh and two of my brothers have bad allergies to carrots so I have a feeling we will be waiting awhile on that one, just in case.
Do you sing lullabies to your baby? sort of. I sing, just not lullabies. I sing Pink Floyd, Fleetwood Mac, Beatles, bob marley, etc. Kiefer fights bedtime sometimes so I end up walking around the house singing whatever pops into my head and then he he goes right to sleep.

Do you have a hard time getting your child dressed after he/she takes a bath? He loves the bath, hates getting out, and hates lotion time so it is a wrestling match for sure.
What solid food are you starting first? Oatmeal. If he doesn't like it, some other brown grain. And then, sweet potato. Do you sing lullabies to your baby? Yes. Do you use baby detergent? No. But, I use Tide Free & Gentle for all the kids clothes because they have sensitive skin. Does your baby have a temper? Yes, but as of yet, it's not as bad as his older siblings. Does your baby like the swing? Yes, he loves his baby swing and Dh already tried him in the playset swing outdoors once. Dh said Theo loved it!
