    So much has changed in a month, little Nug. Or not so little Nug.

    It’s a Big List of New Things for you:

    • A healthy weigh in and more vaccines
    • You participated in a rare solar eclipse
    • We discovered that you enjoy listening to the kalimba
    • Your sleep training has gone quite well, you now only sleep in your crib
    • You’ve tried your first big kid food: almond butter
    • You’re grabbing your toes

    And your giggles and voices are growing up too. You make lots of sounds and smile more and more. You’re very good at grabbing, and have developed relationships with several toys (including arch nemesis STAR and your favourite treat CLOUD.)

    We’re moving on to the next size of onesies, diapers, and bottle nipple sizes. Soon you’ll be drinking from the big bottle too. You’re leveling up on all your gear, young adventurer. And it’s almost summertime, where you will discover the park, sunscreen, and hopefully some soothing air conditioning in your room.

    I’ve been learning lots of new songs on the mini kalimba, so maybe next time I’ll write about some of those. I can’t wait to see what next month’s Big List of New Things are!

    Love,
    Dad

    This series of blogs is to catalog the memories, milestones, and reflections of parenthood. Perhaps one day you (the Nug) will be curious to read them! In the meantime, they’re a nice way for Dad to process this whole parenting thing. He’s a writer, so putting words out into the world is relaxing, therapeutic, and fun.
