Week 41

So the tooth isn’t completely out yet. It’s still hanging out in the surface. We have noticed quite a bit of change in Veer. He is very needy now. He wants to be picked up more often; but when he’s in the mood to play he does it without care. We have to put him to bed every night now, meaning take him in our bed until he falls asleep and then transfer him to his crib. If we try to put him directly in his crib, he cries. It has been a blessing and a curse for me. I like it because the last few days I go to bed with him and fall asleep for the night (happy and satisfied me in the AM), but it’s a curse because Anand is hanging out by himself until he is ready for bed. We’re going to have to do something about that. He has also started eating his cereal snacks. He picks up the puff with his finger/hands and puts them in his mouth. He understands that is a snack and a treat. He gets very excited about it. He still has a little bit of a gag reflex with the yogurt puffs. I think they are a little bigger and don’t melt that fast. Maybe in a week he will like them more. We did introduce Greek yogurt to him last week. Can’t be sure if he likes it or not. And finally he has been saying the words “mama” this week. And a lot of the time he looks at me and says “mamamamama”. He also says it when I am not around but I think he says it because he misses me and wants his “mamamama”. Just sayin’.

This past weekend was great, especially Saturday. I had nothing planned to do but spend time with Veer and that’s exactly what I did. We hung out all day and even got to nap together a couple of times a day. It’s nice to have a day to do nothing and spend it with him. I didn’t have to share him with anyone. Sorry Anand.

Here are some shots from this week:
