14 Months:Time Flies

OMG... Time flies. Went on my new job, no time to update .. and suddenly
Boom! it's 2 months since i last blogged. So much stuff to backfill in.
Even the pictures have lessened.

Updates on Andre:
1. Has learnt to walk at exactly 13 months. As of now, he could walk very fast. When we opened the door, he could walk to the lift to press the "down" button. He knows there are 2 lifts to press. Smart huh .... reason why he does not press the "up" button is because he is not up to the height yet.

2. Understand instructions (Learning is like almost an instant). Will comb hair, knock head, clap hands, bring things, kiss kiss, hi 5 etc.

3. Doesn't says a lot ... but when he passes you things, will go "NAH". His "Ma ma" is particularly melts the heart (I think Kevin is very jealous of that). He goes "Kaka" for the maid. "Ka ka" for the car. "Da da" for dad. and "kor kor" for brother. "Bah" when he hides his eyes with his hands and plays peekaboo. That's about all for vocab. Haiz ... but i know he is very smart, just yet to articulate. When he wants to say "no more" or "how, what's next?", he'll open his palms upwards.

4. hates to wear his diapers. Each occasion is a battle.

5. Falls asleep by himself. Put Andre in his cot. He'll self entertained eg. throw out his pillows, bolster, blankie... and when he realized no one is bothered about him, will find a snuggly corner and doze off.

6. Favourite toy: My wallet. He likes to take out each card ... and gives my money to his dad. I wonder why is it not vice versa

7. Shy boy. Afraid of strangers and new places. Will cling on like a koala bear (I secretly feel very pleased when he does that) .. means i'm his security mah. Likes going for walks in our gardens... touch the grass, touch the leaves (from the smooth to the prickly) ... touch the water, climbs up and slide down the slides.

8. Contipation problem. Not adventurous on food. Zero fruits and juice. Only takes water and soup for liquid. Even if i added a little glucose, he'll spit out everything. For food, he likes my porridge best! But hey, look at the amount of stuff i put in for him, scallops, carrots, vege, fish, egg etc.

Overall, this boy is a perfect 10 in my eyes. Very endearing and is my life line. Very cheeky, playful and adventurous in his own way. Sometimes he drives me mad with all the kicking, screaming and howling ... but at the end of the day, he still falls asleep in my arms, knowing that i'll be there for him. He knows that i am his Ma ma :)

Just the other day, he pulled out all the paper roses from the glass container. Walked to me and said "NAH" with a big grin on his face. Well, what can i say ...
