Dearest Nat,

I haven't been writing to you for a long while. This is how fast time flies, in a blink, another week has gone by. I try to take more pictures of you so that on days I'm too busy or lazy to write, I can let the pictures do the talking.

We discovered your first tooth 2 weeks ago. All we saw was a white line on your gum when we first discovered the tooth. In just 2 weeks, that single white line has sprouted into 2 tiny cute teeth. They are not fully out yet but I have already experienced the impact of your powerful teeth. You had bitten me a few times while I was nursing you and it was painful! I was taught to unlatch you and give you a stern "NO" when that happens and that was exactly what I did. However you thought I was playing with you when I said "NO" and smiled at me instead. What am I going to do with you?

You are eating furiously too, enjoying everything that we gave you. It is such a joy to feed you because you will wave your hands in excitment and show so much interest in eating. You are a fast eater and will protest if I'm too slow in giving you the next spoon. Whenever we eat, you will look at us greedily, wanting a share in our food too. Now you have learnt to reach out and snatch our food from us if we don't watch you carefully at the dining table. It seems like you want to eat the whole world by grabbing anything in sight and putting them into your mouth. I am sure you inherit your love for food from us.

Your daily meals consist of congee with pumpkin, sweet potato or carrot and fish. Gong gong is happy to find out that you love to eat fish (unlike me) just like him and has been buying and steaming fish for you. Fruits that you have tried include apple, watermelon, banana, honeydew and papaya. For today's lunch, I put a piece of pork rib into the congee and carrot to be cooked together. I won't be giving you the pork but I think the congee will taste more delicious with the sweetness from the pork. Your porpor kept nagging at me to make your food more delicious .. so I did!!!

Alright, the congee is ready and I'm going to feed you now. And... Happy 7th month old, my dearie! :-) See how fast time flies!
