This big baby is now 7 months old. He is still a happy baby with the usual tantrums. We've started giving him solids several weeks ago. He enjoys eating rice cereal with mashed banana. The more he fills up, the more he resembles his first Kuya. He can now do pull-ups and stand on his own. He loves playing in his tub during bath time, having his hair brushed and hearing people sneeze.
Joaquin can also imitate some sounds. He calls everyone but Mama. He used to call me “Dede” when he wants to nurse. But now that I’ve had that one month hiatus from breastfeeding, he won’t latch anymore. He just screams "dede" when he is sleepy and hungry.
Being the youngest, we've given in to most of his whims. He likes to be carried a lot. Unlike his older siblings who can be left alone to play in their crib. The older siblings dote on him. Everyone want to sit beside Joaquin in the car or carry him for a few minutes.
This little boy is well-loved indeed.
