Baby Milestones and finally a sweet surprise today morning….



Wow, feels like my baby has grown big. I can’t help telling him sometimes that you are a big boy now; you are not supposed to grab and throw things …. Lol. He is 7 months old and seems like he has been part of our life forever.
First Milestone
My cute little bugz bunny Aadi has been teething very badly for more than a week and during last week, his first teeth made appearance. Oh…. Such a cute little, sharp little teeth.  I was up all night yesterday as he is still teething and the second teeth might be ready for the red carpet.
Second Milestone
My darling hubby (Piyush) has been very concerned about the fact that our baby boy did not roll over, and he may never learn to roll over. Laughing and giggling, I tell him every time this topic comes up that ‘Our boy will learn this trick. He is not a dog, that if you don’t teach him than he won’t learn… ’. So finally last week on Thursday evening at 8:30 PM after I put my little peanut to bed, he rolled over all on his own. I was standing right there behind his crib in hiding, waiting for him to sleep and … surprise. Piyush was not home at the time to see such a huge milestone that he had been waiting for. But next day morning as he was getting ready for work, our boy did his trick again and rolled over. Piyush was so proud to let me know that ‘Oh yeah he did it again’ 
Sweet little surprise
So after a week full of milestones, my baby boy had his six months shots on Saturday, and had been feverish and fussy over the weekend. I had been giving him extra cuddly and snuggly time, and he wanted to be glued to me the entire weekend. After almost no sleep last night between teething, crying, and feeding, I woke up at 5 AM today to start the daily routine. Hubby woke up to change baby’s diaper. On my way to the bathroom, I took out Aadi’s hand from his mouth and kept on walking…. Wait, did I hear … oh yes… My baby boy said ‘Ma’… My hubby was surprised…. I back traced my steps and was overjoyed knowing that my baby spoke his first word ‘Ma’…. Such a sweet little surprise after long sleepless night 
I don’t feel sleepy or tired today even after not sleeping the entire night. The cute little word ‘Ma’ from my son’s mouth to my ears felt like honey… and I am still listening to the same melody ‘Ma’

  1. What a happy day - just think of all the times he will use that word in his future. First day of school to his wedding day. You will always be his "Ma."

  2. Glenda, you are so right. I had tears in my eyes when I read your comment. I just want to keep hearing it again and again 'Ma' :)
