No nanny day

My plan is to record the memorable moments of the Boy ever since his birth. The catching up posts are taking time.I felt it would be prudent to start posting his current moments.

He has completed 6 months and there are 2 itty bitty tooth jutting out from the below jaw. It does bother him once in a while as he rubs his ears more than ever before (more like a dog scratching his ears). His repertoire of sounds include squeals, high octave drawls and babbling. He has also become a bit guarded and does not smile at each and everybody.

Yesterday we went for our first brunch with him – just the 3 of us unlike earlier where there were friends who entertained him. The chef and some of the waiters carried the Boy and he enjoyed it. It also gave us time to finish a course and also talk. A good relaxed two and a half hours meal. They were gracious enough to give us the entire banquet room when the Boy had to be fed. Full marks to Taj Vivanta.

A the Nanny did not turn up today and it was left to me to feed him. 2 scoops of Enfamil A+ Stage 2 (6-12 months):Follow-up Formula with 2 ounces(60 ml) of water (boiled and cooled) was mixed first in his feeding bottle. In the feeding bowl , 2 scoops of Gerber Oatmeal BabyCereal.  Poured the Formula liquid into it slowly and stirred till it became a good proportion. Moved the Boy to the rocker, bib on and started feeding him. It all started well. After a particular spoonful - “proooooh” and whatever was in his mouth came out like an erupting volcano! I was still not sure whether this was a sign to stop and continued feeding him. He finished the whole bowl, drank some of the formula and when he stopped opening his mouth further, I knew it was time to stop.

Now he is sitting in the bean bag looking out of the balcony talking and squealing to himself. And I wait for the time when he snaps out of his feel good time.

Update – There he goes “waaah”. I rock him, check his diaper and he has gone potty. Gotta go.
