Dear Baby Z...
Written on
Congratulations on your 5th month on planet Earth. Hope you are enjoying your stay with mamma and uppa. It’s getting quite obvious now that you are a photocopy of your dad. And it’s also quite clear that you are a daddy’s girl and have him wrapped around your cute Lil pinky. ????
You love looking at your dad when he talks. When your mamma and uppa are conversing you go very quiet, stop playing and observe your father. I guess it’s pretty safe to guess whose body language you will imitate. This month you rolled over for the first time! And now that you have mastered this skill you are on a roll (pun intended) baby! It’s like you have no control over it and just roll automatically wherever we put you. And since you can’t roll back to your back, you flail about till we set you right again.
Around two weeks back it’s like a switch was turned on and suddenly you are super responsive to those around you. You laugh and giggle a lot. And your baby talk is just the cutest. mashaAllah you are generally a happy baby unless you are hungry or sleepy and we are slowly learning how to not let that happen.
May Allah protect you from all harm and give you the best of both worlds my darling.
Love,
Mamma.
