Well, I think 23 months actually... Once you hit 24, you are 2 years old in my mind.

I hate the months thing though...requires math and actual thought on my part. That's hard work for my 461 month old brain.

I don't wanna use the calculator so early. Anything over 2 needs to be years.

I am 475 months. Makes me sound old. I voted for 2 years but reality is that is was closer to 30 months that I stopped referring to my daughter in months.

JUST over Vogi at like 309 months old (I think!)

I get so confused with the months thing too - weeks also....she's 13 weeks! (Isn't that pretty much 3 months?) When does THAT stop either? I don't even want to calculate how old I am in weeks!

I calculated for you since you didn't want to. I'm so helpful I know. No need to thank me...

You are approx 1340 weeks give or take a few with the "just over" amount.

Gee. Thanks. You're a pal.

So does that put you somewhere around 14022 days? Plus a couple more to account for Leap Years of course...
