Dear Sawyer your too fickle!

My dear Sawyer,
You are very opinionated and stubborn. That in itself isn't all bad, but when you are as fickle as you are it gets a little confusing! First you refuse to nurse and only take a bottle. Then you only nurse and refuse a bottle. Then you won't drink out of a bottle or sippy, only cups like an adult. Then out of a cup or straw. Then you won't drink out of either of those but kind of drink out of a bottle or sippy. Then you won't take anything. AND if eating/drinking was the only thing you were fickle about it would be that bad either, but also, it is not. It's just about EVERYTHING. The few things that you are never fickle about is 1. wanting to be in close proximity to your mother. 2. soft blankets...holding, playing, or cuddling. 3. watching your cat. 4. books. 5. baths and even here you have disliked baths 2 or 3 times, but overall you LOVE them.
When you get older you may think I, your loving mother, am exaggerating this information, but indeed I am not. You are fickle about your food, binki, tummy-time, sitting up, new people, family and friends, other babies and children, your dog, outside, hats, car rides, walks in the stroller, grass, pools, sleep, toys, songs...well you get the point. So my darling little Sawyer, It's okay to be indecisive about some things, and it's okay to be opinionated about some things, but it does make life a lot more difficult for you and me, your loving mother, when you are indecisive about everything. Go on, make a decision and stick to it. In fact, make a decision and be stubborn about that decision. (But please make that immovable decision be something reasonable that won't slowly kill me, your loving mother!)
Sincerly,
Me, your loving mother.
