After Hurricane Ike

After the hurricane ike hit our area we are doing well and no damages on our properties as well.Only limbs on the yard. We are so thankful that GOD really watching over us. It was the horrible moment in my life specially that Im worried about my son.The house was shaking because of the strong wind.The electricity was out and we decided to escape texas for a while to kentucky.We been staying at my sister until the electricity back last friday night.I cant imagine how Ike brought disaster and able to take the living of some people. I pray they can move on and will start a new life after the devastating hurricane Ike.

Your baby's growing tower of babble indicates movement toward talking, although the ability to form words and sentences is still many months away. You may hear the same syllable repeated over and over with variations in pitch and tone. Or she may make more complicated sounds, such as two or even three different syllables strung together. Your baby is experimenting with them like a musician testing out a new instrument.

Kemah Boardwalk Weekend

Last Saturday my family went to kemah boardwalk to have fun. I am so excited when we are eating at aquarium restaurant that I thought the whole restaurant was made of aquarium,that we are like under the ocean but its not really what I expected. It just an ordinary building with some aquarium on the wall etc..The place are nice and expensive..lol..We rode the train and we seen the whole place it was really fun. And we are surprised that my baby not scared when the train passed under the tunnel so dark and there where alot of scarry noise and stuff..While the other kids are crying to death.I guess my son is a brave baby boy.

I got this newsletter from baby center where I subcribed about the development of my baby boy every week. And thanks GOD his development is very good and even some are advance.

Independent sitting is itself an important skill, but it's also a big step toward learning to crawl. Once your baby can sit up, it's only a matter of time, strength, and coordination before that translates to a lunge forward onto hands and knees. A few babies start crawling (or getting around via some other form of early locomotion, like scooting) by 6 months, although most take off between 7 and 9 months.
