More Milestones To Report

More to report on Erik's milestones. He has been developing quite fast lately mentally and physically! Sometimes, Daddy and Mummy are just absolutely amazed at how Erik picks up stuff so fast! He is like a sponge, absorbing everything he sees, touches, smells, and much more! (**Note To Self, need to watch what we say in front of Erik, G-rated only**)

Peek-A-Boo
As Mummy likes to refer it as "Peek-A-BuuBuu" since Buu Buu is Erik's nickname and we've been caling him that for a long time. It started recently when Mummy was being silly and decided to call Erik "BuuBuu" and as she was doing this, she would move around the area and Erik would have to "find" Mummy. And tonight, as Daddy placed Erik in his crib (**which he has only slept in for half a night**), Mummy decided to play "Peek-A-BuuBuu" with him. It was the cutest thing as Erik would pull the crib borders down to find Mummy! At first, he didn't know where she was and then he looked and looked and finally found Mummy through the slats of the crib. Then it was off to a giggling game of finding Mummy. We just basically laugh ourselves silly :o).

Hold Himself Up
Erik's legs are quite strong now at 7 months so when he was in the crib, he was also able to hold himself on the edge of the crib and remain standing! This is just amazing to us! He can't even crawl yet but his grip is so strong as well as his little baby legs. And you can tell that Erik is so proud of himself when he can do these things! Sigh! More signs of independence!

Separation Anxiety
Well, Erik definitely has developed separation anxiety recently. Not sure if its because Grandma Katy has taken off suddenly to New York or not. But whenever we leave Erik in the family room, surrounded by his favorite toys, he will start to fuss as soon as we stand up. If we even leave his side for a meer moment to get a diaper or fetch some water, Erik would let his little wail out as if we have abandoned him. We have not! We were just going to be right back, but to him, "right back" is just too long! (**To Erik, Mummy & Daddy would NEVER abandon you, you are our darling son, you can always come to us for anything...and we mean anything! We love you lots!!)

Separation anxiety came and went a few times for us. one months Daniel couldn't get enough of strangers and the next two months he cried if strangers came close. But that all disappeared around 12 months.

You will soon discover that kids seem rally talented at picking up on bad words. It's been more than once where Daniel ahs repeated bad words but since we kind of ignored it he forgot about them. Thank God!
