Always excited.
Hellow Kakak Novie!
Hello mummy!Yes, baby Nila sits. You have been able to sit down for several seconds without support for a few weeks. But two days ago, mummy sat you up and you didn't sway or wobble. You just sat there, straight and steady. Nothing was going to knock you down. You grabbed the toys around you with ease. Kakak Novie called you from the kitchen and you swung your head around to look for her. And back again to look at mummy. Your bum bum was still rooted on the mattress. Wow! Impressive. Time to bring out the high chair! Or rather, time to go shopping for a new high chair! No, we'll just grab the one we left at Pati's house.
How time flies Nila. You will be 8 months in exactly 2 weeks. And in 4 months, we will celebrate your 1st year! You are very vocal, even more so than your 'akka'. Always struggling to get those baby words out. I can hear the frustration building in your voice before your gurgling turn into shouts. You are very much into hair-pulling now. When there is a head of hair in sight, you will throw your weight towards it and grab instantly to a big lock and pull pull pull. Elil is your favorite victim. She screams and cries and pulls back. Of course you never release and tug harder. Mummy has to intervene and pluck your fingers back one by one until Elil's head is freed from your grasp. And then I have to pick the bunch of Elil's hairs stuck in between you fingers. Mummy feels Elil's pain. You are quite the 'cat-fighter'. There was once, you even did this with your toes! Mummy was impressed. Nila's got talent.

Daddy has been off the last week or so. He gets back tomorrow. We have not been able to visit anyone out of our little town. You would not allow mummy to drive. You still cry if I am in sight and am not the one carrying you. To Tesco and Pati's house, mummy has had to carry you while driving which is terribly unsafe. You cry as if you have just been beaten or abused. It's heart breaking to hear. But it's heart warming to know that you need mummy and only mummy so desperately. Will I ever be able to let you go?
