NINE Months Old Today

All dressed to go out


Dear Baby Mia,

You are nine months old today!!! Its funny how to mummy you turning 9 months seems quite special. I think its because its the same amount of time that you were in mummy's tummy. Yet it seems like the past nine months have flown by quicker compared to the nine months that you were in my tummy. We wont have cake but I think a couple a cupcakes would be better. Less temptation in the fridge since it is the fasting month.

A couple of weeks ago, you cut your first tooth then the second one follow suit. So now u have two teeth..yayy! You no longer have those cute toothless grins..hehe. Daddy finally decided we should re-install the Astro since you really need it so last week once it was re-installed, you have been glued to the PHD Channel. At least you are occupied while mummy & daddy are at work.

About 3 days ago, we were sitting on the couch, watching tv then you started messing with the blanket. You started lifting it up and covering your face then down to reveal your face. A couple of minutes later I realized you were playing "Choop Ba" which just knocked my socks off. It was just soooo cute. It gives mummy such a warm feeling when you do such 'smart' things that I can be proud of. There was this one afternoon last week when me and daddy just left you in your playpen to play then you started babbling the word "bye bye" in that cute voice of yours. At the same time you were waving your hand. I was beyond shocked but your daddy was so proud. I think you are really trying to master your "Bye Bye" as you always wave bye to mummy when I leave for work and you even waved bye to the little girl on the tv who was waving at you. I think this Raya you can just wave to everyone and maybe next year you'll be able to salam everyone.

You still cannot walk yet, thank God! But I feel you're a fast learner and will start walking before you are one years old. Nowadays you like chilling on the couch because you can easily stand up and walk along the couch with the back as support. So basically, by yourself, you can stand up and balance for a minute or so before you fall down. You also know what you want. For instance, if one of us is having a drink, you'll start smacking your lips (with your little toungue out) to indicate you want some.

You learn more everyday baby....

xoxo
