Happy 8-Months-Old

Hoho...another post on his monthly update.

Vital Stats:
Height: Should be taller than his last check up height, ie 71cm
Weight: 9.8kg (he lost 1kg after suffered from gastroentiritis just few days before)
Head Circumference: :48.5cm or more

Diet:
- He is still a breastfed exclusive baby. Drinks 6-7oz on 3-4hrs interval during day time and unknown on his first/last feed due to direct nursing.
- Love eating porridge.
- Started fruit - apple, papaya and banana. He prefers apple than the rest.
- Seeing great improvement on him in drinking water!

Development:
- My lil man is able to do commando crawl pretty fast now. Infect, he is a big fan of Superman because he likes to crawl towards our bed and 'dive down' to his Che Che's bed.

- He is lifting his knee up a little and pushing his arm straight. I think he is ready to crawl on four.

- He is able to stand up on his own by holding on something, like climbing up from his playpen. Oh dear, I can expect soon he will cross one of his legs over and jump out from the playpen.

- I think I can tell from his characters that he is someone who needs lots of freedom when he grows up. You know, a mother's instint! :-)

- Although he doesn't like to be controlled/restricted on his movement, he can't be left alone.

- He is a playful baby. As long as you came out with any funny sound and play with him, i tell you, he can steal your heart away.

- Because of the same reason, he needs a quiet environment to sleep. Else, he will look around and stay awake until passed his nap time. Then, he became cranky pula. *roll eyes*

- He adores his Che Che very much, to the extend whatever the Che Che is holding, he wants a share.
