Abel's 9 months old

Today was really wonderful on arriving home. Keziah ran to Mommy as usual to give her a great big hug and smiles. More than that, Abel who was crawling on the floor also came charging at good pace to Mommy with smiles and tried to climb onto her legs. What joy to see the kids after work!

Wow time sure flies! Abel is already 9 months old! Mommy seemed to have not done very much with him eversince she got back to work. Everyday was almost operational, getting the kids ready for bed after she came home from work. It's really a challenge to engage the child. It's more like allowing time for free play for the two little ones, a little reading while they tussled with each other before milk and lights out. Erm, there's really not much learning aside from loads of cuddling and wrestling!

Mommy has almost weaned off Abel, dropping to just nursing him twice at home. Though for the past 2 weeks Abel has been down on and off with flu and cough which somehow still persist, we are thankful he is still his happy smiley self, ever so active to catch up. Oh yes, finally, Abel is sleeping through the night, a good 8-9 hours of sleep from 9pm to 6am. Last Thursday marked the beginning of this new journey which Mommy rejoices for she had never had more than 3 hours of straight sleep eversince he was born.

Abel can now not only sit well, but a speedy crawler, good at climbing steps and even pulling himself up to stand.

Somehow he's into the habit of playing with his tongue these days. There is a little white tooth sprouting at the bottom and it will soon be out.
Oh and he sure loves to play with his sister every night. Either it's Keziah getting after him or him pouncing on his sister, giving her kisses and pulling her hair.
