Hello, big girl!
This month I see A LOT of developments going on with this little person! When Rayray is awake, she has bursts of energy that she finds everything an opportunity to explore! She barely sits still and just loves playing!!!
Height - 80cm (hasn't really grown in the past months since we left London?!)
Weight - 11.9kg
Eating - Still a fairly good eater and now has 180ml of goat's milk first thing and another180ml before bed. I have given up on trying various of plant-based milk as she just doesn't seem to like it. Though I discovered this black sesame drink with various of nuts and barley and she absolutely loves the stuff! So she nows gets this after her LTN. I have also tried mung bean soup with barely with Rayray and to my surprise, she really liked it!
Look at my belly! and the rather 'grown-up' smile?
Sleeping - I have been using 'gradual withdrawl' sleep training method for the past two weeks and it seems to work fine so far... It's just that she still wants to hold my hand when going to sleep! Or she screams!!! Well, I am not complaining YET as I guess it could be much worse. I have also cut her LTN to 1.5 hours to combat evening bedtime battle and it seems to have worked! I honestly never thought sleeping could be such an issue with babies and my, how I have learned!!!
Hey mama, higher, higher!
Development -
- Understands most things we say but obviously she is selective when it comes to putting them in action.
- Loves playing with kids but unfortunately kids in Taiwan don't seem to like mingling with others. It's another post but I have discovered that mums in Taiwan don't want their kids to play with others and they are so overly protective that I got some dirty looks when I let Rayray fell or playing with their kids!!!
Super friendly Rayray waving at everyone at Story House
- Discovered her 'scream' voice! Sometimes when she is overly excited, she screams; when she is frustrated, she screams so yes we have a little screamer in the house!
- Loves cuddling and dishing out kisses!
- Has learnt how to step down on stairs and Rayray is always very cautious and it is very funny watching her doing it.
- Always wants to eat what others have so we now try to have dinner with her at 5pm, too!
Can I have that too? Pleeeease?
