Enjoy! My 2 yo is doing this flailing maneuver that I can’t take. He flings then clenches with a fake waaaahhh waaaaahhhhh that ends with a smirk. Enjoy it!

And I loooooved the baby stage.
It is a really really hard age, I hated being on constant hovering alert, but so CUTE.

It is a wonderful age....as is every age when you love your child so much. But I wanted to say how happy I am for you after suffering from PPD to be enjoying your child so much. You deserve that and I'm glad you are feeling better.

The fact that you say “was” a bad sleeper as in past tense tells me she wasn’t really. Mine is 19 months and still waking 3-8 times a night. I love this age, too, but maybe mostly because it’s way easier than when she was an infant and woke 20+ times a night.

Same! 15 months was one of the worst ages for me. But I love that OP is happy!

I get it!! My second born was an easy newborn and I had no PPD/PPA like I’d had with my first, and I LOVED the newborn stage. He was an absolute terror starting around 15 months all the way through 3 years or so. I didn’t even like him most days. It was such a dark period. I think every child gives you at least one dark stage and at least one perfect stage! So, enjoy your perfect stage now!

Looking back at pictures and videos, I agree it was the cutest age! Then toddlerhood hit around 20 months and oh boy did it get real. But still super cute even if they're totally crazy!

Ah, I love that stage. Although a bit of my 1st's is a blur because I had #2 when he was 16 mos old!
