22nd
of April 2011 (6 months and 4 weeks)
Hi
Noah!
I’m
taking some time while you’re napping to write to you. It’s been such a long
time but I feel no real guilt as I’ve been constantly talking to you during the
day (OH and you reply!). However, I do want to put some of your milestones in
here, so that one day, you hopefully read this and know what you did and when
you did it.
Starting
to coo: In December…So when you were about 3 months old, you really started to
coo and to do it loudly!
Able
to stand up while being assisted: January 25th (5 months). Daddy
would hold you and you would be able to stand up and even mimic walking.
Able
to sit: January 29th (5 months). You were able to sit on your own
without falling.
Starting
to crawl (able to crawl with hands but unable to move legs): February 17th
(4 months and 3 weeks). You figured it out pretty fast. You would go from
trying to crawl to sit! (super cute).
Stand
up without assistance (but holding yourself on furniture): 7th of
March (5 months 2 weeks). We left you in your bassinette (highest level) and we
came back to find a suicidal baby ready to jump out of it. Heart attack….
Eating
and crawling: 16th of March (5 months and 3 weeks). We gave you some
cantaloupe and broccoli though baby lead weaning (you eat by yourself) and you
were fine. However, you didn’t eat too much, so we decided to try purees for a
while and then we’ll move into BLW. As for crawling, you just woke up one day
and you were able to crawl. Yeah, you even got better at it now…
Teething:
20th of April (6 months and 4 weeks). Dad and I noticed a white bump
on your gum on the beginning of April. However it went away. It wasn’t until
the 20th that your Godmother
and grandma noticed a tooth cutting in. It’s your left bottom front teeth.
First
words: Around 4-5 months. When you were upset you would say “mamamamamamama.”
Eventually you also learned to say “mum” “Dada” “Gaga” and a whole bunch of new
words and syllables.
Sleeping
without needing us there all the time: Mid 6 months. And let me tell you, it’s
very appreciated!
As
for breast milk: you are still being breastfed exclusively.
These
are some of your achievements so far. We are so proud of you and cannot wait to
see you grow…but please take your time.
We
love you Baby!!
Mommy
