The snake discovered his feet

Today, Snake Man discovered a new, easily accessible toy: "Wow, those two chubby things that stick out from my bottom are mine to play with!"  Snake Man kept on pulling his newly found feet, playing with the toes from morning till bedtime.

He grew up so quickly. Two months ago, he discovered his hands, and he started chewing on his fingers 7 at a time.  "Yummy meat-kebabs!"

A fortnight ago, he learnt how to use his tongue to swallow rice cereals.  Dinner time become the new playtime.  Snake Man would tug his bib, grab my spoon and tried to feed himself. On some days he would chomp at the spoonful of congee like an alligator snapping his prey. On other days he'd spew it all out, choking on it as he cried. 

Last night Snake Man went to bed without a full dinner.  He woke up at 1am next to me, happily smiling and flapping his hands and feet, grabbing my hair and poking my eyes.   Go back to sleep, baby!  By 2am he was still giving me the biggest grins ever.  I gave up:  Come, baby, have some nice hot rice cereals as your midnight supper...
