Into the thick of it!

Two weeks since my last update and they flew right by! Where to start?πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

A lot has happened since my little star was born, I have learned a whole lot. Let’s unpack.

1. Sulwe had his first jab😭😭😭

Did you know, your heart is capable of being broken after being broken? I didn’t think so until I had to watch him getting the shot😭. So we got home and he was sound asleep, and I thought we were in the clear, joke’s on me! Sulwe woke up crying and he was inconsolable! Nothing was working, not a song, not standing up, nothing! I just ‘packed’ my baby and went to my Grandma’s houseπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I honestly felt like I was loosing it 😭.

He finally went back to sleep but then came the fever. Whoa! This is a child that only knows happiness and smooches on his Chubby cheeks, then all over sudden, this happens πŸ’”. It was a day I will never forget! I have now gathered some tips to ease his pain the next time he’s getting his shots, I’ll tell you what works and what doesn’t.

2. I might be ambidextrous πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

This young man is in my arms almost all day and night 😍. So I find myself using my left hand which is my less dominant hand to do a lot. πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ It was uncomfortable at first but now I’m getting used to it and I’m loving it. Superwoman, aye!?

3. Toothless smile.

I know I said last time that he is already smiling, but guys, he is really smiling!!!🀩🀩🀩 Who knew that a toothless smile could be so CUTE!? He smiles so hard it almost becomes a chuckle 😍😍😍 I am obsessed πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ I now can’t wait for him to laugh out loud πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

4. A perfect fit!!!

I experienced Sulwe’s first real tantrum! Hair pulling, foot stomping tantrum! Again inconsolable crying. Apparently he was feeling hot because immediately I dressed him down, he calmed down. Phew!!! A lot of trial and error going into this, yea?πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

5. We love print and music!

If there’s one thing you can bet on to calm Sulwe down, it’s ‘ The cupcake song’. 😍😍😍 My snookums boogumsπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚. And also when his grandma sings for him; not me, no, his grandma only πŸ˜‚.

He is also attracted to prints and patterns 😍.

6. Bath time!

Sulwe didn’t like bath time before and he would cry a lot when it was time to take a bath, but now!!! Mr Man cries after his bath, he enjoys his bath time very much! I am a happy mother!β™₯️

This is such an amazing journey, thank you so much for coming along with us β™₯️ Till next week!
