Ziv, lately

Ziv is slowly becoming upright. From his tummy, he goes on all fours then tries to do this:

Sometimes he holds on to something, sometimes he doesn't. And sometimes he stretches his legs and ends up in a sitting position. He's still a bit wobbly but he's getting stronger everyday. I know it's only a matter of time before his muscles are strong enough to keep him stable.

Our little boy will be turning eight months on Monday. Time unbelievable passes quickly when you're raising a child. Probably because you count the hours by diaper changes, feedings, playtime, bath time and sleep. There are moments when I still can't believe our once 1.9kg baby is now 7.3kg! He is more aware of his surroundings, is super active and is noisier than ever.

Just this morning I woke up to the sound of Ziv saying "mama." I know he was just probably babbling but still. It's way nicer to wake up to that than a howl.
