The begining of the 7th month

Tyler was able to sit upright on his own 2 Sundays ago, which was around 17th May 2010. Hubby and I were so suprised to find him sitting upright, unsupported on his own playing quietly with his toys.


He still don't like to be spoon-fed, however I'd try to feed him whatever food I'm taking in very very little amount, just to taste, and not enough to be considered a meal! I still have to blend his porridge every morning to be bottle-fed. This time, he's more adventurous in food tasting, so far, he loves eating fish.



Oh yes, yesterday 23rd May 2010, he suprised us again by standing up when he has something to hold on to. He even tried to climb out from his play pen, luckily I was fast enough to stop him. As a result, this is what happen...

He'll be in jail term from now onwards, and he's not liking it very much, well, better to be safe than sorryyy :P

Project

He likes to wonder around especially when he's on his walker. He has the freedom to go where ever he wants, just as long as there is adult supervision. He was caught on camera trying to pluck the flowers before, and now... trying to open grandad's safe.



When he's too frustrated over several tries, he'll just cry out loud!

Increased Mobility at 6 months

At 6 months Tyler could walk pretty fast on his walker, hence knocking at almost anything and appearantly he enjoys knocking at everything, be it chair, table or walls. hmmmm there goes mummy and daddy doing all they can to baby proof the whole place that he's in. With that mischevious smile of his, you know he's up to something not good in his head since everything is so new to him.


Here, trying to reach for the flowers, he will try to pluck it and put in his mouth, some may say, he's reaching for the green box :P since Heineken is nothing new to him, as both his grandads' regular/favourite drink at dinners.



Tyler visiting his only baby friend and he'll just smile and sometimes talk to Baby Mamy Poko :)

He's also learning to sit by himself now, most of the time he can sit halfway through on his own, except when we put him on a sitting position, he can last for a few minutes till something else got his attention.

This baby of mine, refuses to sleep most of the time, at most 1 hour, or just some kitty naps for about 15 minutes to half an hour. So during my office hour, I'll need to keep an eye on him all the time. He's so clingy lately perhaps he's teething now, crying while touching his gums, poor baby...

With just a blink of an eye, 6 months have passed, sometimes I wonder how did time passed by so quickly? It scares me to think about "time", like Tyler may need me now, maybe with another blink of an eye, he's all grown up and I'm no longer needed. Perhaps all mothers will go through all these phases of life. Therefore, to all mothers out there, cherish all moments with your children.

I was asked plenty of times, how is it like being a mother? My reply will always be the same, it's the best gift I've ever received. No doubt there will be lots of work, since nothing is easy, but it will be manageable. Some of my friends who are planning for a child are worried about who will take care of their kids, are they be fit to be parents, will they manage? I believe these worries are normal and I, too have gone through that. However, at that time when I was having all those questions in my head, I can't find any answers to my question as well, because I will only know how it goes when Tyler arrives and somehow, we'll adapt to the situation magically. Straight away when mother instinct kicks in, although everything may not go as planned, but it will go on smoothly.
