Milestone in month 6

He can sit up without support for a longer period of time, about 10 mins. He can shake his rattle and he tries to bang his hand on different object and see if he can make any sound. He loves watching our cat. He’s eating solid too! He’s tried rice, oat and wheat cereal, green beans, zuccini, squash, yam, green peas and banana. His favorite food is oat cereal and squash. He loves going to his swimming lesson and splashing water. He loves to sit up in his tub when having a bath. He also can grap toys under the water too. He can say more things now, like Gee, Nai nai, ma ma, ba ba, mum mum, vu, yee, tsee……

Milestone in month 5

He can roll! Oops! I shouldn’t say that, he can flip from tummy to back first, then about a week later, he’s able to flip from back to tummy. He has 1 tooth on Oct 20 and another one came on Oct 29. They’re both the front lower teeth. He tries to sit up but almost always lean to the front. But when he was 1 week to 6 months, he could sit for a minute or 2 without support. He loves watching the fishy in our aquarium, we called it his private TV with fishy channel. And he notice we have a cat at home!

Staying home for a month!

Being a new mom is not easy. Especially if you need to stay home for the first month after giving birth. It’s the chinese tradition that new mom needs to stay home and avoid any wind from outside in the first month after the baby’s born. Otherwise, there would be a great chance of getting arthritise in the older age. That’s why I, as a new mom, am staying at home all day execpt for Colton’s body check up.

The cord fell off!

The cord finally fell off on May 22, 2005 when Colton was 10 days old. Chris was changing the diaper and I found out that the cord was missing. We didn’t know where it went. We finally found it in the cleaned laundry. It’s been washed and cleaned in the washing machine. Isn’t that funny! Changing diaper is a lot easier now.
