My boy is not a baby anymore. At least according to himself.
Remember he's just 7 month old.
What he does lately:
1.
Dy fights on diaper change time. He doesn't want any pampes to put on him. Susaaah banget makein-nya, badannya roll over kesana kemari, kakinya tendang². Mama ampe bingung (dan kadang² bete setengah mati). How come it's so hard just to put diaper ointment, he'll smear it with his hand.
And oh, if I forgot to put clothes on,
Dy can open his own diaper! No joke. He'll rip the Velcro off, one at a time, then he rolls around naked happily and pees on my bed!
2.
Dy discovers his penis, .. yup. He touches it on the changing time, always. At first I was scared that it would be a bad habbit. But when I talk to other moms, their baby boys are like that too, and I shouldn't discourage him for touching it. It's about time he finds his body part, just as he finds his hands or his toes. It's totally normal.
3.
Dy eats finger food. I love the Puff Banana Gerber and he does too! :) Yeah, I munch it together with him. At home, I will scatter it on the tray, then he'll throw it like flowers around him. I realize that he can't use his hands to put the puff in his mouth, yes he grabs them and make a fist, but the thumb and index finger coordination is not developed yet.
In a car trip, the Puff really occupies him and helps me a lot to keep him stay still. I will put it one at a time in his mouth and he will eagerly "nyaplok" for at least 30 min. So cute.
4.
Dy likes books. Not to read them, but to tear them apart. This afternoon I try to read for him and instead he will jump onto the book, shake everything up and start tearing it.
When I got mail later that day, I put some catalogs on the bed and he would go crazy grabbing it. He crunched and pulled the pages apart .. Daddy watched it in horror, but I told him to let Dy have fun with it. It's just so adorable to see our son discovers a new thing everyday and we shouldn't limit his ability to explore. As long as we supervises. I think he likes the sound of the shredding and the crunching part.
5.
Dy starts creeping (though it looks like swimming .. hehe ..). He doesn't crawl yet, but when he sees something that he likes, he'll try to reach it. The objects that usually interest him are
Cable Remote Control, my Cellphone, Books or Paper. Bear or eeyore is to babyish for him. Notice he wants all grown-up stuff? *LOL*
He can even change the channel, and daddy who usually so possesive with the remote will just let Dy plays with it. Dy can grab the remote with his tiny little hand.
6.
Dy grabs and reaches everything in front of him. Every new things that he just finds out, he'll try to get it.
7.
Dy can't go out eating with mama and daddy anymore. He doesn't like to stay in his carseat at the restaurant. The last time we went out to IHOP, I put him on the high chair and he was so fussy. I smacked the whole glass of Orange Juice, splashing it to othe customers .. gosh, so much for dining out.
