Cieran is 8months now... he has been such a bundle of joy in the family. Just his smiles alone will melt your heart and made you forget your sorrows. Almost everyday I have been hearing 'happy updates' on him from my mum. "your son was calling others loudly along the way to home from 
the market", "he's very happy today, he has been calling and playing with you", "the auntie at the market gave him a packet of biscuits seeing him cute", "passerby who doesn't know him, will stop and play with your boy"...etc. Cieran has been charming almost everyone with his smiles and friendliness. I wonder how many girls will be falling on his charms in future. :-) It has always been a 'look-forward' home feeling each day when the clock draws towards 6pm. Cieran always gives me a welcoming cheer when he sees me. Well, or I should say, not only to me. He gives anyone a welcoming cheer when a new person enters the house. He happily roll over to the entrance (if he is on his walker), or sits with both his hands waving.... of course with his little voice calling you! He would want the person to walk over to him and carry him. Several times, we l
ike to disturb him by instead of walking over to him, we called for him to crawl over. This little fellow is not always obliging.. sometimes, he would just crawl halfway, and stopped. Either being distracted with other sounds, or expects you to make the halfway route as well. Cieran adopts some of the 'piggy' habits since he is born in the year of pig. He never rejects any food. A better way to describe will be, he expects to eat whenever anyone is eating. He will drops his toy (if he is playing) and crawl to you for food if he spotted you chewing. Yesterday I have fun watching him. I am playing with Cieran when Ashley joins us with a slice of apple on her hand. Cieran spotted the apple, drops his toy and tur
n himself over to his sister. He looks at her at interest, making light noise..asking for a bite. His attention is fully on the apple and won't stop pestering Ashley till he got his bite on. It was hilarious watching the two kids-one avoiding, the other pestering. Cieran is overall a happy boy. He is contented with just a string as a toy and that string can amused him for quite a long while. He sits playing with it, turning round in circles with his legs and butt, on the same spot (amazing right?). Each child has their own manner of play and growth. I see the difference between Ashley (when she's little) and Cieran. It has been a wonderful parenthood, eventhough there are also tough times handling the kids.
