Wow it’s been two weeks since I posted an entry here … I don’t know what happened but it’s like when Sean turned 5 months old,  there was also a switch that was turned on. A switch for waking up in the wee hours in the morning and not sleeping anymore. It’s been like that for the last two weeks that’s why I don’t have much energy to blog. I am very tired.

Just this morning after I fed him, he  didn’t want to sleep anymore. He was moving around our bed, pulling his dad’s hair, leaning against me. All of a sudden he  vomited, I think he threw up everything he just drank. We had to get out of bed to wash him and take the bedsheets from the bed as well. We didn’t go back to bed anymore and went to the living room since we know he was not going to sleep any time soon..he super active. We on the other hand are super sleepy. We put him to play in his playpen. His dad went to make coffee and I slept at the sofa…I don’t know what happened next.

My hubby said, brace yourself because this is just the beginning! More fun sleepless nights to come

New moms like me can be dreadfully paranoid about our babies’ development. We are always anxiously waiting for our babies to reach milestone after milestone. Each one hoping that her child will turn out to be the new Einstein or Mozart or the millennium’s greatest genius.

An essential factor in becoming successful in whatever field is exceptional language skills. One has to be able to speak eloquently and converse intelligently for one to be able to share his thoughts. And, of course, one has to have excellent comprehension skills to get the most out of various learning experiences.

There are plenty of products and programs that target early childhood development and that claim to boost a young child’s cognitive abilities. It can be quite daunting for a mom like me to choose which ones are suitable for my son and which ones would greatly benefit him. One program I came across with targets early language development.

Your Baby Can Read, a program designed by Dr. Robert Titzer, was created specifically for teaching young children to read by exposing them to language and reading early in life. I have heard many positive feedbacks about this reading program but there are also some who refute the effectiveness of the program. I guess I wouldn’t really know if it works or not until I try it firsthand. I’m hoping my baby would already be reading by the time he turns a year old. But if not, then I’ll still be glad we got to have plenty of bonding moments while going through the program.
