Month 7

Angkong and Ama dropped by for two weeks during Swe-Cha's 7th month. We enjoyed their stay and wish that they could stay longer. Two weeks isn't really enough to catch up on the past several months. Swe-cha enjoyed his time with his Angkong and Ama and loves being carried by Angkong up and down the hallways. They enjoy taking long walks around the compound (when Swe-cha gets bored at home). Sometimes, they can also be seen watching the birds, trees and squirrels out on the balcony.

Swe-Cha's 7th month saw him grow leaps and bounds in terms of mobility. He learned to crawl - with a lot of help from his Angkong who kept on putting him down on the mat and tempting him to move forward by putting interesting toys in front.

Solids-wise, we've added carrots, pears, sweet potato, and sweet pea to his diet. He loves sweet potato and always chases the spoon with his mouth.

He has two teeth now - his lower front incisors - and we're expecting more teeth to erupt in the next few weeks as he's almost always rubbing his gums. Poor guy, he's become very irritable due to his discomfort.
