Baby steps
Agastya is learning how to walk. At the moment he's full speed in walking while holding onto someone's hands. I've tried to encourage him walking by himself, and the result is quite impressive. He could walk at least 3 steps all by himself!! Three little steps, then I'd need to catch him before his precious bum hits the floor.. Heh heh..
He loves food, all food. Even when his tummy is full after his feed, if he sees someone is eating something, he'll drool and will make this yummy yummy face. However, he get easily bored. He cannot have the same meal for lunch and dinner. He'll spit it out. Actually, he doesn't spit it out. He blurts it out everywhere. I have to vary his food otherwise he'll complain. You should see him eat when he's happy with what he's eating. Very satisfying. I don't think I've ever seen a baby with that big an appetite. If he's in the mood, he'll get mad if I am late in delivering the next spoonful of food to his mouth. If his mouth is empty and the spoon is no where close to his mouth, he'll make this distinct complaining sound. Heh heh.. He's so cute. I guess all mothers will say their babies are cute. It comes with a mother's job description. However in my case it's really true :p My baby is the cutest :p No contest. :p
But if he's not in the mood (that means he's not that hungry yet, or he's bored with that particular food), he'll splash it everywhere. His mouth is like a propeller. He'll be cunningly taking one big spoonful in, and then immediately propel it out so that everyone are covered with his food!!! Grrrrrrrrr….
He was weighed yesterday, 11.2 kgs. I don't notice the increase. Yes, he has always been heavy!! :D
Agastya is not very good with strangers or being in a new environment. He's very happy and bubbly at home with familiar faces, but once we take him out of his 'usual environment', say to my mom's friend, he'll become very alert. He'll look at new people as if they're going to bite him. One touch (depending on the touch, I suppose) and he'll cry. Inconsolable, sometimes. The only way to stop the cry is to take him far away from the crowd, being only with the person he knows.
Like today for example, I had to get my battery replaced for my watch. So I went to this friend of dad who owns a watch shop and I took him with me. He did not cry, not even once, but he was definitely 'not feeling at home'. He put on this suspicious look all the time while looking at everyone and everything. Although he did not cry, you would not see him laugh, not a single noise or sound came out of his mouth. Not even a smile! Only after we got back to the car, he started smiling, laughing and making noises again. Oh, baby!!!
