Mom tried showing me how to clap earlier in the week and I just kind of stared at her in amazement. She is pretty awesome but I had no idea she could coordinate her hands to hit each other and make a sound. She really is talented, that one. After a day of her showing me this trick, I tried to mimic it, but I mostly just gave myself near miss fist bumps. After another day I got them to connect, but my left hand betrayed me by being in fist form only. Then the magic happened. I was so proud of myself that I had to show Mom and lifted my long-withstanding ban on tummy time.
This last month has been exhausting. With the New Year I made a resolution to work out more and get my baby muscles into shape in time for my first birthday. I've been hitting goal after goal on development. Here are some highlights.
I can sit up like a boss:
Me with the most shrill and annoying toy of all time. Thanks Grammy. |
I joined a book club:
War and Peace is next on my reading list. |
And I decided to try some new hobbies:
Good thing I've got this protective head gear. |
And I don't want to brag but I am now a member of the 1%...
In weight. I'm on the chart BABY!
I'll have Mom do a back-post recap of months 7-9 because I've very tired after all of this hard work. Stay tuned because there's bound to be a crawling video in the next few weeks.
Peace-
Malala
