Milestones in your child's Life

Today my son cut his first tooth, and I didnt realize how emotional I can get. I dont remember feeling this way when he first started crawling, or when he first rolled over. But I was seriously jumping up and down excited when I felt that first tooth! So far, it's been my favorite milestone, and quite unexpectedly. I always figured something big like crawling would get me. So for all the parents out there, what was your favorite milestone? Which one was the most special?

Well, with my oldest, I think it was rolling over, only because it happened so fast, he did it at about 8 weeks, so it was super early as well. Also, when he started walking, that was huge. FOr my youngest, I think it will be crawling, but we'll see. He cut his first tooth at 4 months, and I was really excited about that. I think it's amazing though, because I didn't think I would get so emotional about things like this the second time around, but I find myself even more excited, because I'm not the first time mom, wondering if he's doing it right, or thankful that he's doing it "on time" I just let him do it at his pace, and kind of sit back and watch. Congrats on the tooth, it is exciting! (:

Wow, 8 weeks! That is really early. My son didnt roll one day until 3 months, and he didnt roll both ways until almost 7 months!
