11 months

Happy 11th month-sary to Zethan! counting down to one more month before the big bang ~ Zethan is ONE!

in fact Zethan's bash will be held on 9th Jan 2010 instead as it is a saturday. mummy is really bad as all she had gotten ready at this moment is a customized banner and yet to be collected! having said that, mummy isn't going to have a big scale celebration for Zethan, nothing fanciful ~ no fancy decor, no fancy cake.

Zethan is very vocal these days with very clear ba-ba, da-da (beating / hitting). Don't think there's any association of ba-ba with daddy. He displayed his displeasure by shouting and yelling loudly, using so much force till the whole face turn red. of course he does try to get by his 'wrong doings' by crying out loud 1st when discovered.
He love to pretend to cry when he is alone in his playpen hoping to attract some attention and best will be give him a cuddle or carry.
milk intake wasn't improving that much and daily intake average to only about 400ml which is really pathetic. He tried chye sim, threadfin, brocolli this month. just this morning, mummy and grandma brought Zethan for his very 1st Macdonalds meal. he few some hotcakes which he did not enjoyed very well and taken some hash brown too (just the interior potato). Looks like Zethan has a very chinese inclined palate with porridge as his all time favorite. what's planned out for the following week will be kampong chicken egg yolk, kampong chicken, sweet potato, japanese pumpkin, spinach (yim choy), xiao bai chye, carrot.
learning the concept of sharing? this might be just an coincidence but mummy kind of taught Zethan how to share by using his stinky pillow. Zethan is sniffing his stinky pillow when mummy said Zethan, share with mummy and pull his hand with pillow towards mummy for a sniff. perhaps it's just a repetition of mimic of action, he did it subsequently.

saying goodbye is either by holding up his left hand without any movements or crunching and opening his hands like twinkle little star. in relations to milk, he will sign milk milk with both hands.

still cruising and only managed to stand hands free for a slightly longer period, say about 5-10 seconds at most. He can 'walk' by taking a step and leaping to the nearest support.
that's about all mummy can recall which is no easy feat as she has very limited memory capacity basically. nonetheless, progress of Zethan can be updated progressively whenever possible.
looking forward to his 1st Christmas, 1st New Year and definitely not to be missed 1YO bash!

p/s ~ 3hrs passed since mummy dropped Zethan off at grandma's and she is starting to miss him oready, 7 more days to go!
