End of Third Week

We are coming to a close of week 3 with my baby boy. Each week brings challenges and wins and I know I have sounded pretty negative on the blog, but there has been a lot of great moments.  So at the end of this week I am only going to focus on the wins.

• Cy hugs and kisses us with affection
• He is slowly starting to eat solids; Juk (Korean Porridge), Kiwi, Strawberries, Grapes, some cereals, brats, quinoa just to name a few. I am so excited for the day he actually eats and swallows a meal.  All this food is in like a bite or two except the Juk.
• He loves water! He finally sat down in the bath tub! Whooo!  Plays in the little pool we got him.
• He can use a fork and spoon properly, but he still throws food.
• He loves the ABC song and can say up to G on his own. Plus he goes to sleep every night to the ABC's
• He enjoys tumbling
• He has no fear
• He can say chicken from sound and our chickens. He really likes Peekaboo Barn on my IPhone. Where he is learning animals and how to say them in English and their sounds they make.
• He just learned no, so that is great. ;)
• He loves music! The guitar, piano, drums, any music that plays he makes a beeline. He especially loves Jeremy playing guitar. 
• He can say mommy and look at me
• I feel he is attaching well. He knows who Jeremy and I are and will come to us. Daddy is the fun one and Mommy is comfort.
• His second trial at daycare I pulled up while they were outside and he was being held by a teacher and he recognized our car, pointed to it and reached. That is pretty cool.
• He has the most adorable laugh! I seriously want to record it, it is just so darling. 
• He is very inquisitive.  He is really going to love when Grandpa Jim comes out, I need to tell him to bring techy stuff so Cy can figure it out. 
• I love his thighs, hands, feet...actually everything. I could just kiss and gobble them up.
• He loves to dance, he can go on point and put his arms up like a ballerina. He just loves to walk on is toes.
• He loves riding in the stroller and bike carrier. 
• He is active and really loves to be around family. He really likes Grandma Irene. 
• Jeremy finds it endearing that he pushes us. Meaning he knows he isn't suppose to do something and he will look out of the corner of the eye and giggle thinking haha I AM going to go in the street!

I am going to start being more positive as I feel so grateful to be a mother and that our family is finally complete. I think it can be easy to see what isn't working or the challenges but forget all the great moments throughout the day.  Per Jeremy: We could have just a rough and challenging day and then there will be one great thing that will put all those challenges behind.

Peace and Love
