7TH VACCINATION



Due to his heavy weight, his father is the one who always accompany Matthew for the vaccination.  This time it is his seventh vaccination dated August 5, 2020 which is the third dosage of Pneumococcal Vaccine (PCV).


I have been looking at him when the vaccine injection was administered and he did not have reaction at first.  He was just looking around.


However, he cried when he was put in a weighing scale.  Just wondering that the last time he was weighed, that was July 29, 2020, he was at 8.2 kilos.  This time, he only weighed 7.5 kilos.  His next vaccination will be on September 9, 2020 which will be for Measles, Mumps and Rubella.


After his vaccination, we strolled in front of our building to get some fresh air.  Well, obviously, he enjoyed the short walk, rather ride because he was on a stroller.



 

FIRST SOLID INTAKE



Though, he has been taking other liquid forms like Milo and juice which started when he was 5 1/2 months, this time is his first time to take a soup with Malunggay and porridge.


He may not eat heavily but whenever the spoon is taken away, he would cry.  Obviously, he likes more.  When the soup bowl is put down, he would cry looking at where the bowl has been put.

MORE CHARMING AT 6 MONTHS



Matthew was on his 6th month on August 2, 2020.  He is becoming playful and charming.  He knows how to keep one's attention already.


How can one resist from this very cute face.  He makes faces.  Without being asked, he makes a gesture of "beautiful eyes" blinking continuously his eyes showing how happy he is.


Look, how playful he is.  He likes it very much when he is being watched by us rolling on the soft mat.   He is just so adorable.


And here he is!  Still with high spirits playing with us.  Every minute looking at him is like a show and we can't help but pick him up and cuddle.


The picture above was taken during our afternoon nap.  While I already feel sleepy, Matthew is still on high spirits.  So, his father has to take care of him while I am already sleeping.


Very tired after the sunset viewing at our building's rooftop.  He likes it there because, it is windy and he likes to watch the kids playing and calling his name.
