He's now 8!

Today, Luke turns 8 months! And I am just amazed at how time flies so fast. It is as if it was just yesterday when I gave birth to our seven-pounder baby, and now he is a fast-growing little boy who loves to bounce, puts everything he grabs into his mouth, and babbles a lot while continuously drooling.

Any new tricks so far? Yes, there are a number of them. But the newest one is when he tries hard to close his mouth and put his lips together when its meds-time. Of course, mami and dadi are more clever. We tickle him so he would laugh and naturally open his mouth -- presto!

Taking care of him would now require extra bits and bots as he moves a lot now unaided. I'll take this as another episode of my parenting extra challege. Gambatte ne.
