What are your oldest memories and approx. how old were u?

I think I was around 6-7 maybe, I remember being led down the stairs for Prep/ First Grade (class I)

Is there any established medical research on how old one is before they formate memories?

Shortly after I burned myself by pulling a pot off the stove...I think I was 6. Yeah that sucked. I still have the scar today (it's too small to be pic worthy). Then at age 8 or so getting stiches for when I split my skull on my brick fireplace. That sucked as well.

i was 5. my mom was running erronds and drug me along, so when we walked into a bank, the teller asked me my age, i said 5. that's the only reason i know it was 5.


i thought i remembered being 4 and seeing some thing called "sun city" or something in Mesa Verde, and walking around all over it (was like 4 foot high walls, brick, allowed to walk on). but when we went back there, it looked nothing like i remembered it, so i think i formulated that memory.

just like i'm sure i formulated the memory of sitting on someone's shoulders flying through a hallway in our familie's oldest house (the one we owned long before the house in LA. and LONG LONG before this house). but i'd have to be 2 for that memory to be correct.....

Walking down a long dark hall, pushing my baby stroller. I must have been 2 or 3?

Falling asleep in my Cheerios, still in high chair.

I remember being three. We were living in a basement suite in a different city for a couple of months cause my dad was in school, to become a lab tech. My mom was pregnant with my sister, so that's how I knew I was 3.

I remember a really mean dog that would bark at me under the fence next door, and I remember taking out the two goldfish we had and trying to put them into the plastic bag we had bought them in. I dropped the bag on the floor and the fish went flying! Oops:) I don't know if they survived...:(

I remember getting hit on the head by a wooden baseball bat swung by my older brother. He had a t-ball set and had managed to balance 4 balls on the tball thing. He was going to hit it and it was going to be so cool. I was standing too close and got hit on the followthrough. Next thing I knew I was inside with icebag on my head. I had a bump on my forehead for a long time.
 

I remember my dad's model trains, and also him cutting down a tree from when I was two. We moved out of that house at around the same time, but I can still describe it to a tee. I even remember my mom's friend, Diane, she moved overseas when I was three.

I also remember bringing my brother home from the hospital when he was born. I'm two and a half years older than him.
