Bear is now 9 months and a couple of weeks old. He loves Mr Skeletor (actually Bear from A Nightmare Before Christmas), Humpty, and Tigger, and occasionally his bolster.
He pats things to indicate approval. He has a special cooing sound reserved for his loved ones. He hates clothes, changing diapers, and Mommy leaving.
He sleeps well generally waking once every 2-3 hours. Naptime is regular. Once at 1.30pm, 5-6pm, and another sometimes at 9pm. Every night he wakes up around twice on hands and legs crying or sitting. He looks perplexed. So am I and other Moms who report the same. It seems their bodies just do that. Learning all the time.
He’s on solids 2-3 times a day. His Grandma makes the yummiest meals. But he’s not fussed. He’ll eat baby food. He loves bananas and will eat almost anything. Like his Dad. 
He eats fastest when I feed him. Around 15 minutes. He weighs 9kg and is growing taller by the day. He has big feet. Sometimes I think he’ll be a 6 footer. Or at least as tall as Grandpa.
He’s mastered sitting up, crawling, and is now speeding up stairs. Navigating down the stairs is something he will soon be learning. He loves holding onto something and standing. Sometimes he lets go of one hand. Stands. And grins.
Time has flown so quickly. Soon he’ll be walking…
Mephala is a strange and rather interesting
