Aqui segue, especialmente para os meus amados familiares e amigos que estao longe, o meu primeiro contato com o mundo virtual. Papai e mamae jah me disseram que terei que ser nerd, pois so assim poderei manter contato constante. Espero que curtam!
To keep in touch with those who do not live close by... I guess being a baby from an immigrant couple is not an easy task, and mom and dad have already let me know that I have no other option but be a computer/tech nerd. Enjoy!

8 months / 8 meses
Yesterday, I turned 8 months old, and as usual, we had a cake for
me (and as usual, I did not get to eat it!). Eight months of tons of discoveries
and adventures… milestones… teething… yes, my eighth month of life was marked by
some serious teething, but no teeth yet. This past month I also started to
belly crawl, and just before turning 8 months, I started to crawl. I am also a
pretty good imitator, so much so that I was able to say ball in Portuguese. Yes, I
can say mama and papa (for a while now), Lady , and now ball, but none of these
words are consistent, so I guess this is not considered talking yet. I can use
pincer grasp to pick up small objects. As a matter fact, I love playing with
hair strings. I
can also stand and grab an object with one hand, clap and wave goodbye; again, those are also inconsistent; I only
imitate others, so far, but mommy still thinks it is pretty darn cute!
I continue to be a very picky eater, but seem to be eating more. So far, oatmeal and pear are my favorites, but even those are pretty tough to eat at times. I also continue to be a bad sleeper, but my mom has given up on teaching me to sleep (at least for now).
Enjoy the pictures!
*****************************
Ontem, completei 8 meses de idade, e como de costume, tivemos um bolinho na casa de tia para mim (e como de costume, eu não comi!). Oito meses de muitas descobertas e aventuras ... etapas do desenvolvimento ... dentinhos ... sim, meu oitavo mês de vida foi marcado pelos meus dentinhos que incomodaram muito, mas nao nasceram ainda. Neste ultimo mes também comecei a rastejar, e poucos dias antes de completar 8 meses, comecei a engatinhar. Também sou um imitador de marca maior! Tanto, que nesse ultimo mes consegui faalr BOLA. Sim, consigo falar mama e papa (jah faz ateh um tempinho), Lady, e agora bola, mas nenhuma destas palavras são consistentes, então eu acho que isso não é considerado fala ainda. Eu tb consigo ficar em pe e pegar objetos com uma mao, fazer pinca e pegar objetos no chao, mas esses ultimos sao inconsistentes, tem dia que faco, tem dia que nao. Um dos meus passatempo preferidos eh pegar fios de cabelo no chao para brincar. Também pode bater palmas e dar thcau, mas estes tb sao inconsistentes. Eu realmente pareco imitar mais que falar.
Eu continuo chatinho para comer, mas aos poucos estou comendo mais. Meus alimentos favoritos sao pera e papinha de aveia.Meu soninho tb conitnua ruim , mas amainha desistiu de me ajudar a dormir.
Aproveite as fotos!

Brasil III
Since my last post, I have done lots... As for my development, I have started to say ball in Portuguese, BO-LA, (10/02/13) and to crawl (16/02/13). I still seem not to understand exactly what the words mean, but can certainly reproduce certain sounds (mama, papa, dada, and now, BOLA). "mama"and "papa"sometimes come in some sort of context, and seem to be meaningful. As for my social life here, while my parents were in several Carnival parades, I stayed home with my auntie Edda, and only went to a special parade for kids on Carnival Monday, 11/02/13. After Carnival, we went to Maragogi, where we rented a small beach house right on the ocean. I loved the water and the sand!!!!!!

Brasil II
I have been enjoying my life down in Brazil. I have been to the beach, to Carnival parties, Olinda, Boat ride on the Capibaribe River. I have also been trying different flavours here: carambola, papaya, maracuja (passion fruit), cookies.
Recently, I have started to wave and clap, but it is not consistent yet. Also, I'm starting to use pincer grasp.
