Wow. So many changes! A few days after turning 6 months old, I found Michael sitting! Yupp, all by his self! I remember how he was always trying to accomplish that so one day while carrying him, I just sat him on his bum expecting him to fall on me but he just looked at me like "Right, so what you expecting you old fart". He wasn't all that steady though. He would be able to sit for a bit but gets tired and falls forward and just lies down.
So cute cause I would put him down for a nap and I would hear him wailing in the room, when I went in to see him, little man was sitting there with a sad face. Can't help but give him a hug.
When in Singapore, he was also trying hard to crawl. He would be in a weird position with his arse facing the sky and on all fours. Yes very much like a downward facing dog, weird ass position indeed. But he somehow just found that he couldn't move. He is 6 months 3 weeks and I've realised that this little bugger can crawl! He was just playing alone when he saw his pacifier and tried to grab it. The thing moved out of reach and he went after it. So we move the pacifier and he chases it. Its progressing for sure. 1, 2 steps then fall and kick. 1, 2 steps then fall and kick again. But he gets there alright and he gets that bloody pacifier. Gees, disappear for 2 seconds and he's gone.
AND! Yupp, it isn't over. He can basically stand alone. Okay not alone but he just needs to lean on something and he'll just be there leaning. Being very cool. When he carry him and let him stand, remove our hands, he stands for a bit before falling on us and laughing his arse off. He thinks its a game, we think its progress. Also, when he was younger, when we try to make him walk by just holding him by his hands, he sometimes walks then sometimes lets his feet drag like he wasn't sure. But he's sure as hell sure now. Now, we do that and he knows what comes after left is right and he basically walks with gusto, he marches basically!
He also feels ticklish now! Before, fiddle with his feet or toesies and no reaction or he just stares at you but now, tickle and hear he laugh in a very obnoxious way and kick like crazy!
I'm typing this and he's beside me, lying down on his dinosaur and he just gave me a big toothless grin. I'm so proud of you my little one.
Yes, life is great! Great indeed.
