Dear Matthew and Toby
February has proven to be an exciting month in Toby's development! To start with, you have been sitting unsupported since about five months old (with a few face plants). We also took a swim together at the local aquatic centre, which you loved. We then started you on solids, and a banana was your first food, but you have come to love watermelon more-so, and you grab my hand while I'm holding a slice and keep it nice and close to your mouth so you can suck up the juice. At the playground we put you on a swing and you liked being slowly pushed back and forth (although you are just happy to be doing anything outside, as you often scream until I put you in the pram and take you for a walk).
The most amazing thing I have seen you do (before you're even half a year old!) is stand up and hold onto the couch by yourself, almost to the point of cruising. It is amazing to watch such a young baby show such strength in his legs and hold himself up for over a minute at a time. I know there's often no correlation between early milestones and later milestones like walking but it wouldn't surprise me at all if you walk early, purely because you are simply so motivated and determined Toby.
It has definitely been a great month in terms of watching our little baby become a little boy.
Love you two,
Mum xxx
