Baby Ryan @ 11 months old

The past month had been a bumpy month for the little baby. Beside the scary fall, he had 2 more minor bump on his head, once was when he try to turn around while cruising along the sofa and fell side ward onto the hard marble flooring and the other time, he fell backward while trying to sit on the edge of a mattress on the floor.

Both time he cried loudly and enter into "shock" like the first time, no movement, no sound and lip turned white. The last one was really nothing (He actually went down very slowly using his stomach muscle to slower the fall and his elbow to cushion it) but he still enter into shock...hmm...has he turned it into a habit or was it a reminder of the bad fall that he did this even with the slightest bump??

What's New:-

He had started taking porridge just a few days back. Uses fish bone stock to boil the cargo rice and added fish and carrots in it too. All my kids ate cargo rice from baby to toddler.

Why I choose cargo rice?

The greatness of red cargo rice is similar to brown rice. Only the husks of the rice grains are removed during the milling process, retaining all the nutrients, vitamins and minerals intact in the bran layer and in the germ. It is a good source of Thiamin (Vitamin B1), Riboflavin (Vitamin B2), fibre, iron and calcium.

His routine:-

In the morning, he will has his milk follow by cereal. Lunch and dinner will be the porridge and in between, he will have half an apple or one whole banana. Mommy's milk is still needed, even during the NIGHT!!!!! Yup! He is 11 months old now and still waking up for milk!!

His character:-

One word to describe it. TERRIBLE!! He is definitely born in the year of OX. Stubborn and insistence! If my mom was to read this, she will say he has my character.

His temper is horrible too! He is displaying the "Terrible 2" symptom at 11 months old!

If we take away the thing he is holding, he would screamed and cry and sometimes even throw his body backward if he sees us there ready to support him!

If we feed him his food too slowly, he will be angry too.

If he is doing something, like climbing up the stairs and we carry him away, he would kick his legs and cry! *faint*

He likes to throw things around too. He loves taking things out from their boxes or container and throw it on the floor. And if it does not land on the floor, he will pick it up and throw it again till it landed on the floor.

His favorite activities:-

He likes climbing... up the stairs, out of his baby chair, on me and everything that he can climb on....

His achievement:-

He is able to stand up on "his own" with minimal support from my finger.

He is able to stand totally unsupported for 10 seconds. As he is still not very stable, I usually hold on to his T-shirt just in case but he will swing or pull my hands away. My little show-off..
