We're turning Magic 8!!!

I fulfilled the seven months pure breastfeeding so I'm going to rejoice. Then I got a new job. Then my BM went low... so now I have to mix feed. While I am away she will be on formula then direct latch once I get home. It was hard at first to feed her by bottle again after getting used to my breast but because I found a very patient nanny, she made sure that my dear Peanut will be bottle fed once again.

The thing is, its quite heart rendering whenever I get home and little Peanut is waiting on her high chair and once she saw me from the door will give me a joyous expression of glee. As if she's saying "Finally, dede (breast in Tagalog) is back!!!" On a mother's point of view, it was always the best welcome one can get every time I get home in the afternoon.

We are seven days shy before she turns eight months...she is already trying to walk around too much. She's still learning to crawl though. You see, my daughter has a very weird milestones because she learned to sit and walk before crawling or roll over. She can now point out when she doesn't want to eat her food...just look away until the spoon in front of her goes away. She can blink her eyes also called "beautiful eyes"  and make herself look cute when she wants attention. Ah the little one is becoming a toddler fast. 

Food wise, she's a good eater. She can turn broccoli into lollipop and strawberries are her favorite munch. They said its because she was breastfed that's why she's not choosy with food. Today I tasked her "Yaya" (nanny in tagalog) to fed her the blended quinoa and salmon mixed with milk. I am just amazed how fast she can grow in a matter of eight months....seems like yesterday when I first held her in my arms. Everyday I thank God for the opportunity of being her mother.

P.S.
Did I mention she can say "baba" now and "nenny" for me???
