It’s funny how babies just start doing things. One day they can’t do it and the next one, just like that they do it, as if they knew all the time how to do it (maybe they are pretending that they can’t do it ? 😊)
Me and Chloe have been practising how to sit for ages, with no real sign that she is getting better at it. Up until now the only way Chloe could sit for up to 10 seconds on her own, was when she was pretty much folded in half (she would lean so much forward). And then one day when we started practising she just sat and sat and sat. She can sit now !!! 😂
And just like that we went from saying or screaming aaaaaa or Aaaaaa or AAAAAAAA or AAAaaaAAAaaa to saying Ba Ba, Ba Ba.
Did you notice that once baby discovers that it can do something it does it all of time? We went trough a faze of high pitch screaming for days no end, spitting for 3 days etc. Recently Chloe has had a small cough in the morning, once she discovered that she can cought she has been doing this pretend cough all the time !!! Eeegggghhhhh eeeegggghhhh no Honey you do not have a cough !!! ( and there is me going Yed Yes Yes my baby just learnt how to do a fake cough ! I am so proud of her, isn’t she clever ?😂)
