It’s amazing to see that in less than three months Vai will be a one-year-old boy! Babies grow up SO fast!

And in terms of his developments so far, I guess it’s much easier to list them down using the terms used in the book ‘What To Expect The First Year‘.

Here they are:

>> work to get a toy that’s out of reach

>> look for dropped object

>> pull up to standing from sitting

>> crawl

>> kneel well

>> get into a sitting position from stomach

>> object if you try to take a toy away

>> stand holding on to someone or something

>> pick up tiny object with any part of thumb and finger

>> say “mama” and “dada” indiscriminately

>> babble, using various consonants

>> play peekaboo

>> clap hands and occasionally wave bye bye

>> walk holding on to furniture / cruise

>> understand “no”, but always obey it

>> stand alone momentarily

>> momentarily squat, without holding on to anything

>> climb on to furniture or boxes (or anything!) to reach for objects of interest
