I'm wishing time to slow down. It feels like the weeks are just passing by too quickly and Cooper is growing too fast in such little time. I can't believe in six days he'll be eight months and in four months a year old already!
I have loved watching him grow. He is such a delightful baby boy and love him so much. I can't get enough of hugging, kissing, smiling, playing and talking to him. I am so fortunate that I am afforded the opportunity to work only one or two days a week and my job allows me to work weekends so that I can spend as much time with him. I love work, but I love being with my baby boy more. I don't think I'd be completely happy being a full-time mom though since I love working as a therapist! It's just the right balance.
As I have said, baby boy has been doing so much. A couple of weeks ago, he learned to pull himself up to stand. He's getting around creeping though he has been able to do a few times crawling on hands and knees. And he now has his pincer grasp and two bottom teeth! I'm tempted to start finger foods, but I think I'll wait another month. I'm terrified about him choking. I did experiment and gave him a teething biscuit. He did pretty good, but I got freaked out when a piece broke in his mouth. I fished it out, yanked out the biscuit from his hand and gave him a few good whacks in the back for good measure...he gave me a good wailing! I felt pretty bad, but I was scared. I'll need to get brave, but I'll wait for another month.
