Baby Steps

 Hamza Jatuh Katil... LAGI! :(

Yes and i am not kidding. It was an incredible week for all of us, including Hamza. He fell off the bed, AGAIN (yeah, i know what's on your mind already but let me just finish this off) and this time, i panicked. He was asleep when i left him. thing is, the bed is only some 5 steps away from the dining table (room is right next to the dry kitchen) I dah kepung-kepung him with bantal, although i know it wasn't enough. And yes, I underestimated him. I thought he'd sleep longer. I was dead wrong. I even left the door ajar. Unfortunately.. :( And then, 'the cry'! My mother was 'Hamza jatuh katil!!! Oh no!!' true enough, I found him on the floor and crying in pain. Worse, his nose was bleeding. It didn't bled out, but you could see that there were blood in his nostrils. I panicked! *seb baik husband tenang sikit. We just had to take him to hospital. We brought some ice to cold compress the nose. Alhamdulillah, Hamza is fine. We took him home.

 By the time we reached home, He was already feeling and cheerful and excited. I was traumatised! I don't dare to put him on the bed. So i put him in the cot. Much to our surprise, Hamza started to stand in his cot. Sila rujuk 3 gambar terakhir dalam previous entry. Ye, dia baru baik dari jatuh katil. And, he just refused to sit. Ada incidents dia terhantuk hidung kat cot. Hmmm. But we couldn't do much. We could only observe him, because he was just so determined and excited. All of these happened just 3 days before he turned 7 months. Alhamdulillah.

My little baby is a big boy and very determined, i can see. Since that day, whenever i put him in his cot, he'd reach out for the side of the cot and pull himself up. He'd play with his reflections in the mirror, talk to his reflections, laugh a bit and when he's tired, he'd make small cries. Mintak tolong make him sit/ carry him. Clever. When i pray, i'll put him on the floor right next to me. A few days ago, he would just sit and kadang-kadang pegang my telekung. Now? He's found joy in making a mess. He'd pull his toy basket or worse, he'd pull out all his creams and botol minyak out of its bakul. And to date, he's polished up his crawling skills. Ye sudah LAJU!!! and best of all, He can already go round his cot (meniti). My mother says, he'll make small cries when he's tired and wants to sit or when he couldn't get something (e.g. bila ada bantal/ comforter dah bergulung and dia xboleh crawl) But whenever he was able to overcome the problems, he'd smile gleefully and cheer for himself. Amazing. My son. Other than that, he has also started to express his likes and dislikes and wants. And he too understands us. *susah nak explain disini.  Buat-buat je la faham ye? :)

Yes, of course i am happy with Hamza's incredible developments. Everyday, i'd gloom for having to leave Hamza for work. I wish i can be there for him all the time. Tapi, this is life. And I thank Allah for all the blessings. I so enjoy being a mommy! Walau begitu, I believe that lain babies, lain personality and lain development. For Hamza's case, He has 2 other cousins of the same age. Ye, Hammam and Ameer Muadz. And Alhamdulillah, the family tidak membezakan any of them. We enjoy them infact. I love to share mummy-baby experiences with my sisters. And i hope, when Hamza and his cousins (mama's and baba's side) dah besar, they'll love each other just like brothers and sisters. 

Okay, till then. Toodles.

 

 Smile baby!
