Your Baby's Future Career

on November 20, 2009 at 11:37 AM

In Baby of the Week I ask moms to guess what their little ones to be when they grow up based on their curent personalities. Some of the answers are pretty funny!

Moms in the Babies group are having a similar chat -- here are some of their best guesses as to what baby will be when he grows up:

-- I could see my son doing something with music because he loves to play the drums. I think my daughter will be a good actress because she is such a drama queen.

-- My husband and I own a barbershop and I like to think that someday he will take over the family business. We both joke that he will be a famous baseball or football player and take care of us.

-- My son is 4 months old and goes into a trance with football or SportsCenter is on, so I'm thinking a quarterback or announcer.

-- My 1 year old is very calm and relaxed and only impatient when you don't have a drink right there waiting for her after she is finished eating. So I say a teacher who is a joy to have, but knows what she wants when she wants it and watch out, here she comes :)

My two year old can play soccer like a champ. We are thinking he'll go pro! ;)

When she was a little baby, I used to joke that she would be a ceiling fan repairwoman because of how interested she was in watching it go round and round.

she will either be a dancer, end up playing a instrument or be a swimmer, she dances to everything even commercials and everywhere, even supermarket, lol. she has a small piano and plays it all the time at my moms house =-/ and she tells me she wants to go to swimming school, but i haven't found one on the winter so she has to wait till early summer for that =-)

My husband said the same thing about my daughter, that she would be an actress, because of her tendency to be a drama queen.

DH works in the family business as a machinist. His dad and uncle are both machinists, as was his grandpa. I take DS to the shop occasionally and he loves to watch the machines so we always say he's bound to be a machinist too!

Well he LOVES music. He loves listening to daddy playing the piano and putting on a CD always makes him happy. He just loves music. He also throws a ball almost better then I can (17months) and almost took out my tooth when he hit me in the face with one! But honestly I think he will be an engineer : (

Both DH and I are engineers and when he gets toys that need a little figuring out like this wooden toolset with screws he will sit there for hours trying to screw them in. And my contact case, if I give it to him with one of the lids off he will sit there for hours trying to get the lid back on....

Well my dd loves music and she is a bit of a drama queen, but in she loves how things work and tries to take them apart and put them back together again. So maybe something with engineering
