Dear Sebastian,
It's been a while since I last wrote to you and over the last month you have grown very much. So far you have outgrown all of your 3-9 month old nfant clothes and you are almost 8months, you are currently using size 12-18 month clothes. You may think this is silly but I was very sad when I put your newborn clothes away... I will be keeping all of your clothes and toys for our additional family in the future.
Sebastian you are a world of curiosity as your little palette begins to taste the wonderful flavors of food. You have now started eating solids. Before you where 6 months I started making your very own home made baby food. Your first food was an avocado blended in our Baby Bullet but your first homemade baby food was sweet potato and let me tell you, you devoured the whole bowl and after every bite you almost bit my finger off you loved it so much. We also give you Baby Gerber food the same kind your big brother had when he was a baby, although not the same as homemade you get the best of both worlds.
You are turning from back to front and front to back before it was only back to front! You never really enjoyed being on your tummy and now when placed on your tummy you turn right over. You also now sit on your own although sometimes we have to place pillows behind you just incase....Sebastian you are working your leg muscles like crazy you enjoy climbing on both of your mommy and daddys chest as if you where climbing a ladder. With all the climbing you are also slowly trying t pull your self up! You are very close and will be crawling in no time.
So, Sebastian what I don't understand is why do you enjoy playing with everything other than your toys for a few minutes. So far you are obsessed with pulling mommy's hair and glasses, remote control, cell phone, eating paper, pulling your dog Guero's hair, biting your mom's jaw! Go figure I think we need to get your cooler toys becuase your are so not interested in the ones you have know. lol.
Sebastian so far you have experienced your first: Trip to the Park, Sea World, Museum at Balboa Park, Several Restaurants, First Movie at the movie theaters in 3D (Cars), All Holidays from November 2010 to Now 4th of July coming near by, First time at the Pool (Baby Pool), Birthday Parties and most recently your tia's Bachelorette, etc. and many more wonderful adventure to come....
Your current schedule is there is no schedule! We go day by day. We also exclusively breast feed on demand and you eat about 3 servings of baby food a day. You take two morning naps and two afternoon naps. And your bathtime routine is usually around 8pm, we sing lullabies and read books before bedtime.
I enjoy watching you sleep in my arms sometimes when you wake up in the middle of the night I hold you just a little longer after you've nursed. I can hold you all night just knowing that you are safe in my arms enjoying all those unknown smiles while you sleep. We love you very much and each day is so great knowing that you are the reason you make us all so much happier. Your brother Jesse not only takes good care of you but he enjoys making you laugh and cuddle you with tons of kisses. Your dad is a happy mess and can't wait to see the both of you and your brother after he gets home from work. He devotes time for the both of you and it's a beautiful sight to see all my three handsome boys together enjoying life!
It's good bye for now but not forever, I have so much more to tell you son but will another day.
Mommy loves you!
