Hi Just wondered how many of you guys know yet which category your bubba 'fits' into? More interest really....as I lay awake last night at god knows what hour listening to Clodagh stir AGAIN (such a rubbish sleeper lol)....it came to me that she's such a busy wee baby and soooo outgoing, not shy at all and therefore the total opposite to me as a kid! Anywoo, just curious for curiousity's sake lol. Your thoughts might give me something else to think about in the wee small hours tonight! -------------   http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

Guess she's inherited her Dad's genes in that respect! It did make me wonder though, how much is nature vs nurture when it comes to outgoingness? I think both. Obvioulsy I have 'learned' to become an extrovert in order to deal with life, travelling solo and in my career...however it is not my true nature. Clodagh appears even at this early age to be naturally outgoing (which of course might yet change).Replies:

C was practically born smiling , from an early age she has made friends easily and she is still like that to this day .
Ty is a lot more serious and quiet , tho he does have a gorgeous smile , so it will be interesting to see if he stays that way -------------

Jake likes to be the centre of attention and loves other babies but is wary of adults... but once he figures they are ok he is chatty and bubbly and shows off. LOL The exact opposite of DH and I!!!! -------------

Alia is the extrovert, always makes friends easily & loves organising people & OMG such a girly girl which does not take after me.
Cooper is much more laid back & is such a boy! He is fascinated with tyres  He's also friendly & outgoing but not as loud & busy as his big sister. I guess why compete when you can just cruise???------------- Kel http://lilypie.com">

I have been thinking alot about nature vs nurture lately as i watch my wee girl have a tantrums or voice her opinion when things aren't going her way!!!! Or when people come round she does watever she can to get there attention haha My partner says shes just like me , but she hasn't seen me displaying any of these behaviours (I hope) so it must be nature?? haha its a great debate we often have at the early childhood centre i work at!!!! ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Hazel is my Extrovert and Esme is my Introvert. They are just so opposite. Although in saying that over the last year and a half they have swapped roles a few times. But I'm starting to think now that they are finally settling into their own wee characters. -------------

Definitely an extrovert here.
Not shy whatsoever! Loves attention and plays up the charm when she feels she's being ignored 
DH isn't an extrovert but is quite confident. I'm as shy as a church mouse! -------------

Sam is my little extrovert, and SO dramatic too. He's been so busy and on the go since he was born, and he bats his eyelashes at everybody and could probably charm his way out of anything!
Jamie is my laid back baby, although only 8 weeks old, he's kinda cruisy, a bit grumpy at times, but has a lovely smile and is happy to just lay there or be held most of the time! |
