Wordless Wednesday: Fairy or Cherub?

Little Angel At Eleven Months

Early this morning, she can barely walk a few steps.  Just before noon, here's her progress...

Yes, she can walk alone! And to think she just turned eleven months yesterday! Amazing, right?  Well, she was happy that she can finally walk that she spend most of the afternoon having fun cruising the house, standing each time she falls and plastering a big smile every time she arrives on our arms or on a nearby furniture.

Everyday, my little girl never fails to amaze me and worry me at the same time.  Now, that she is constantly moving around, I am scared to let her out of my sight even for just a few seconds. I am never overprotective, though,  as I want her to learn.  Of course, I am watching over her safety more so now that she loves to climb the stairs.  My! She's got so much energy that I feel drained by the end of the day but that is nothing compared to the joy that she brings to us.  I love it that she deeply adores her siblings, Champagne and Charlton and that the two feels the same to her.

Milestones:

• she can walk alone!
• dances when she hears fast-paced music
• points to her fingers if asked to count and claps her hands afterwards
• puts her hands on her mouth when asked to give a flying kiss
• plants her open-mouthed kiss when asked
• loves to play peek-a-boo
• pulls up to standing position from sitting position
• stands alone well
• is getting talkative but most of them incomprehensible

I can't wait to celebrate her first birthday and that would be less than a month from now.

Eight Month Old Little Angel

Time surely flies fast. I know I have said this a hundredth time already, but I just can’t help it with a baby around. The more so now that I have adjusted again her crib. She used to sleep in an infant bed and on her second month I have to adjust it because she just won’t fit in there anymore. Approximately three weeks ago, I again adjusted it to a playpen since I found her trying to stand up and I was afraid she might topple over. Again, was it just yesterday when I gave birth to her?

As of today, she:

• Has mastered sitting without support of hands
• Has mastered grasping and holding on things for a long time. She can even drop or throw them
• Cannot crawl on all fours yet but can pull or drag herself like a military crawl or scoots across the floor on her bottom
• Raises her legs up and brings them over her chest and brings one foot to the mouth to bite the toenails
• Can easily maneuver herself to an upright-seated position from a back-lying position
• Rolls from front to back and back to front
• Pulls up to standing position from sitting position
• Stands while holding onto something and would sometimes release her hold
• Would just literally taste everything
• Claps hands together
• Bangs objects together
• Shout/shrieks for attention
• Feeds herself a cracker

By the way, I so love her convertible crib. You would know why just by looking at the pictures above. It could also be converted into a toddler bed which she can use until the age of 2-3 years old. Soon she would get rid of that crib and would get her own bed. Soon she would be going to school. Soon she would be enjoying her sweet 16 gifts. Soon she would be going to college. Soon she would be having a boyfriend. Soon she would get mar....  Oooops! Enough!  I don't want to think of that just yet.

Little Angel At Seven Months

Last Sunday, my little angel celebrated her seventh month birthday.  She is getting a lot more lovable each day.  When she's asked if she's ugly, she would shake her head.  When asked if pretty, she would also shake her head. When asked with something answerable by yes or no, she only shakes her head. LOL. She can now wave goodbye to her older siblings when they would set off for school and can kiss us with an open mouth. She can now say mama and papa and hubby gets ecstatic every time she calls him.  And as always, I don't have sleepless nights because she can sleep through the night.  By the way, she now has teeth!


Here's more of her milestones:

• starts crawling or lunges forward
• starts to combine syllables ( she's becoming more talkative )
• gets upset if  a toy or something she's playing with will be taken away
• separation and stranger anxiety
• passes objects from one hand to another
• plays peek-a-boo
• bangs objects together

Little Angel at Six Months

Burp! Oooops, sorry! We just celebrated Chezelle's 6th month birthday and although, we only have spaghetti for this occasion, I am still so full after eating a plateful of it. Anyway, my sweet little angel has achieved a lot in one month's time. Now, I cannot just leave her alone in the bed or in the couch even for a second or she might fall. She smiles and jumps with joy every time she sees her cute little face in the mirror. She enjoys watching her siblings and other children play indicating that she wants to join too. I bet she is as talkative as her elder sister.  She loves to have conversation with just about anybody, cooing nonstop if talked to as if she wants to say something but just couldn't blurt a thing. And, for almost a month already, she has been eating solid food.


More of her milestones for this month:

• Se can now sit on her own.
• She can roll from her back to her stomach and back again.
• She rocks and pivots while lying on her stomach.
• She can grasp and mouth objects, and can pass objects from one hand to another.
• Smiles, laughs, squeals and begins to imitate sounds.
• Baby looks for dropped toys.
• Baby expresses unhappiness when an object or toy is taken away.
• She digs her fingers and toes into the floor to push herself toward a favorite toy. 
• Turns toward sounds and voices and can recognize her own name

Little Angel At Five Months

Was it just yesterday that I gave birth to her? Well, time surely flies fast and my little angel is now five months old. It is always a wonder to see her development and as of today these are what she can do:

• She can now hold her head steady when sitting upright. 
• She can roll over in one direction. 
• She can grasp a rattle. 
• She can reach accurately for objects and tries to put it in her mouth.
• She turns towards the source of a sound or voice.
• She squeals with delight and smiles spontaneously
• She smiles at her own reflection in the mirror.
• She can sit briefly without support.
• She surely gets attention by babbling so loudly.
• She mimics sounds and gestures.
• She laughs at funny expressions and silly faces.

I'm now excited on what she can do for the next few days but I don't want her to grow old fast. Could she just stay like this forever?
