He looks very smart with his new haircut hug. When is your work assessment? Hope it's ok.
Vicky Em loves feeding herself with her spoon (see below!). But isn't a big eater at all and still has 4 BFs a day. She loved pasta cooked in chicken stock the other day though so might have to do that again.
Two new "milestones" hit today. E pulled herself up in her cot for the first time and was standing up waiting for DH this morning (she's pulled up elsewhere but never in her cot). And she dipped her spoon in her bowl and scooped up yoghurt and then put it in her mouth herself (DH taught her this so he's very proud). Our babies are all growing up.
I've printed photos for her first 6 months for her scrapbook and I can't believe how fast it's gone. Lots more to print still!
Trying to decide what to do about work. I'm having loads of fun with her but I miss earning my own money. I need to apply for a work permit which costs $400 though so I need to be sure before doing it.
Re car seats: we're going to keep her in her infant seat as long as possible and then move to a RF convertible seat. It's recommended here to stay RF until 2.
Re birth: even though I had a good one, I do have some questions about ours like how to prevent another 3rd degree tear and the almost-hemorrhage next time. Hopefully, if we stay in the US, I'll have the same midwife for number 2.
