Your improved skills of moving (chaar dast o paa)

Your improved skills of moving (chaar dast o paa)

YOu have been crawling for at least three months now. I have some videos.

Today, you can do the “chaahaar dast o paa” much more skillfully and very well defined compared to yesterday. There is a big difference. Now you move your hands and knees in order.

Oh God, you have no idea how adorable and lovely you are.

Almond Syrup

Almond Syrup

I put raw almond in water and in the fridge for a couple of days. Peel 5 or 6 of them, grind them, put them in a neat and tender piece of cloth and soak it in a glass half full with hot water. I put the glass inside a kettle of boiling water.

There, after several minutes, I have almond syrup.

I add 10 ml of almond syrup to a mixture of cereal (usually 20 ml) and fresh fruit juice (usually 15 ml of grapes or apple juice) , and give it to you.

Apple Puree

Apple Puree

For the first time I gave you apple puree today.

I peeled a granny smith apple, cut almost 1/5 of it it in very small pieces and boiled it in boiling water until it got pretty soft. I smashed it to make it as smooth as possible, mixed it with oat cereal, then added a little bit of fresh natural grape juice to make it sweet, then gave it to you.

You liked it.

Heinz banana puree didn’t agree with you

Heinz banana puree didn’t agree with you

You had a difficult couple of days. Well, you are extremely sweet, so, even with an uneasy stomach you managed to be lovable, curious and extremely cute. Yet you couldn’t eat or sleep easily for a couple of days.

I stopped giving the Heinz banana puree to you for a couple of days. You pooped three times, it got out of your system and as of this morning you were back to normal again.

 

You sleep well, thanks god

You sleep well, thanks god

You sleep really well through the night, since sometime between 8 to 10 p.m. to some time between 7 to 9 a.m.

We feed you every 4~5 hours now that you eat rather well during the day. Previously we fed you every 3 hours. We change you each time now, after you had a bit of a diaper rash. This, does not disturb your sleep though, fortunately. You are one adorable baby. You are a dream baby.

Your dad is away for the week for the first time after you are born

Your dad is away for the week for the first time after you are born

Your dad is on a business trip, and will be away till Thursday night.

This is you, my mom and myself at home; this is an interesting experience for me.

I was worried for a while, but hey, after your dad left, I realized it was not that scary after all.

Your dad was missing you already when he got at the airport.

We adore you, honey. Your dad has never loved anyone like this.

Next week, your dad will be away in San Francisco. We were supposed to go with him, but since we decided to go to Iran on August 21st., I thought it would be too hard for you to change routines so many times in a short period. You are a lovely angel.
