In the windmill of my mind…
For a national parenting magazine I need moms’ quotes about any really odd things their babies do: strange expressions, weird noises, quirky habits. Babies should preferably be under-1 [or at least under-1 when you noticed the quirks]. The magazine will print your name, city and state but photos aren’t required. I’d love it if any moms on the thread could drop me a pm!

My babies have really been quite normal. :tongue Now, if you were asking about quirky behaviour in a 3-year-old, well, I don't know that there is much that a 3-year-old does that ISN'T strange or quirky.

My niece (10 months) sleeps with her eyes open and carries toys around in her mouth when crawling, like a puppy dog. Now she's a strange kid.

My daughter used to make sucking movements with her lips, and her tongue peeking out slightly. She did this in her sleep right up till she was 8 or 9, We used to call it "schnuffeln". She never sucked a thumb or used a pacifier; whenever she wanted to feel calm or dream a bit, she would sit there and schnuffel, sometimes quite intensely! It was really cute.
