Please forgive me if this is in the wrong place. Place it where ever it seems fit
I really do apologize if this is misplaced
What's your very first memory you can think of?
I can't remember my own birth or anything, but I do remember being very young. Pretty sure I was still an newborn to infant (not that much of a difference). I was sleeping in my crib and my mom coming to get me. I remember her holding me and all I could see was the top of the table. Everything was still kind of black and white-ish, so I must've been very young
I'm pretty sure it wasn't a dream, because dreams and memories have different vibes. To me anyway

I remember sitting on the floor in our living room, looking out the window. Not a very dramatic memory, no, but judging fro how high up I had to look to see, I must have been pretty darn tiny.

^_~ you guys are lucky to remember like that. I can't even remember anything but pits and pieces before age 8. Accidents happen, I guess... -sigh-
Anyway one thing or two I do remember I don't think I can really place. I remember my father, which alone means I must have been 1 1/2 or younger if I was living with him. It's strange, because I don't think it's possible to remember something so young. It's not even anything really...memorable :/. I just remember my father, standing in front of me and feeding me something while I was sitting on a hight chair (SP?!XD)
Another thing I remember would have been when I was a bit older. I can remember busting out of my crib, crawling down a hallway, knocking on my mother's bedroom door and going, "I'm hungry," at like..2 a.m.
. My mom recently verified that this happened, and called me the ninja baby XD;;;

I remember... that I wanted to fly so I jumped off a rather tall dresser and knocked out my two front teeth...
I also remember chewing on a barbie doll's feet O_o;
yeaaaaah...
EDIT: OH YAH
I remember my older sister dragging me under a table so she could chop off all my hair when I was a toddler. It was during her birthday party too D: I looked like a boy until I was like 8...=_=

Also 2, sitting in a shopping cart being pushed around the store by my older siblings. I think they may have been shopping on their own, as I don't remember an adult around. I'm told there was a small store just a block from our house, so it probably all makes sense.

I think I was around 3 or 4, and remember my sister trying to teach me the concept of "I" and "you". I remember being really confused, because I could not understand why it was "I" when I thought of myself, and "you" when someone else thought of me.
I think I drove her mad.

The earliest memory I have is opening the door and finding that our dog
Lady had puppies that day.

Another memory I have is looking out the door, waiting for my older sister to get home from school so she could play with me ^_^ I think I may have been 1 or a little bit under 1 *thinks*

Playing with shaving cream in the PPI class when I was 2!
Next to that, I was 3 or 4, it was winter, I was cold...so I went to go inside, and I got my chin stuck to our metal mobile home door...and mom couldnt come out and help me b/c of how small the staircase was, so eventually she ended up pooring hot water on my chin to get me unstuck...
I hate winter and metal nowadays thanks to that.
I also remember when my dad got bit by the neighbor's snake...also around the time when I was 4...

The earliest memory I have is from about 18 months. I remember being strapped into a straight jacket so that I would not squirm so I could be operated on. Freaky.

I was laying in a playpen, my parents sitting at the dining room table, a single overhead light casting a yellowish hue around the room. I don't know how old I was at the time.

I think maybe around the age of 2, I would be standing up in my crib just waiting to be let out. At the time my parents said I always had a huge smile in my younger years, but now that smile doesn't exist there anymore.

AUGH, I remember when I was in first grade, they had to surgically take my two front teeth out. My dad gave me sleeping medicine, and I pretended to sleep. Eventually I did go to sleep. Then I woke up during the procedure, I suppose, and I found myself strapped tight to the table, unable to move. That was probably the most frightening thing of my younger life. Then it's all blurry, lol.
As for my earliest memory...it could be lots of things. I remember when I saw my first computer game; it was where you were a bus driver and had to pick up kids on time. I was fairly young then.

I have a few.
One was watching TV while sitting on the floor, but I do not remember the show nor how only I was.
The second one was eating at some restaurant with my mom and dad and a cousin of mine. All I could remember was the table and seeing their faces. I was close to being around two years old.

*Covers two front teeth* @_@
I remember standing downstairs in my pink My Little Pony night gown eating roasted peanuts ^__^ Then my cousin came down stairs.. then my sisters. I think I was under the age of 3

Speaking of pajamas. I remember always wearing my Batman pajamas to bed when I was around 3 years old. I loved them so much.

When I was about 1 and 1/2, I remember moving my little walker (is that what they're called?) to the edge of the stairs to the basement, and beginning to pitch over. I don't remember the actual fall, but I remember realizing that falling forward was a bad thing because I felt dread, and therefore was old enough to comprehend the concept of gravity. XD
Also, I remember drawing on the couch with my Mom's lipstick, spilling my Mom's nail polish on her comforter, and riding in a little red wagon that flipped over, and getting scrapped up because I didn't let go of the sides. All that was in Georgia, and I was two when we moved so I was less than two in those memories.

I don't actually remember this but it's one of those things that CERTAIN other family members don't let you live down.Any ways I don't know how old I was but one time I had to stay at the hospital in Sioux Falls,SD.
There was this girl about my age that was also there and it seems that we were about the only two children there at the time.So when my parents came to get me they say that we were walking down the hall together hand-in-hand.

Tearing apart my crib into a million gazillion pieces, and an "child proof" picture only book made of some kind of plastic... yeah, I was rather proud of that. I was a very violent child apparently...

I think about the earliest I can somewhat remember is when I managed to bounce/climb out of my crib and fall onto the bed, thus waking my parents. I used to escape my crib and playpen lots haha...

I think my first memory was being in this dark enclosed place, hearing voices from outside and thinking to myself "I hope I don't have a dad with a beard. I don't like the bushy texture."
I kid you not. I either had an active mind in my mother's womb or it was simply one of my bizarre dreams. It's funny because my dad (thankfully) shaves and does not have much facial hair.

Hm...I think my earliest memory is playing a computer game. My mom says that I played computer games before my first birthday. The game was called "Sticky Bear Alphabet" for the Apple computer we had, and all you had to do was push a letter on the keyboard and it would bring up the letter with a picture, word, and sound that corresponded with the selection. I remember avoiding one letter in particular because I didn't like the loud "roar" that accompanied it. It was either 'B' for bear or 'L' for lion...I'm not sure.
Then I remember being two, and my mom and dad were sitting on the couch. My mom then asked me if I wanted to have a little brother or sister--of course I said yes--and then she said we were going to have one soon.
And then there's all sorts of random memories of my days being three and four with my little brother as an infant. Like I once "rescued" a plastic lavender-colored Easter egg I saw from my bedroom window. It was snowing outside, and I remember making a big deal out of it. "But mommy! I have to rescue it!"

Tearing up stuff is for amateurs,I once had a major tantrum in the
Chicago Zoo(I think it was)because my parents wouldn't let me go on the train ride and ended up throwing my thong sandals into one of the
enclosures.

Now that I think about it, I remember running through the house with a typing machine in my arms and screaming... with my parents not far behind. I was about 3 I think... I don't know why I did that, but I did... I have been told the story before, but now I remember a little of it, especially when I look at the thing, since we still have it. I dunno where I got the strength to lift it when I was that little LOL

Maybe... but in reality, the crib cost alot more then a pair of sandles
... economic warfare on my parents... poor parents...

I had just turned 3 when I listened my unborn little sister kicking in my mom's womb.. We were sitting backyeard on a sunny day.
I also remember sitting on a pot. I don't remember the age, but it might have been even an earlier memory than the one above.
