Procrastination is my middle name, I am very sure of that, admit and pronounced guilty! LOL
As mentioned previously, badly in need of an update of Zethan's progress but since the last is eons ago, it can be quite a challenge.
In all honesty, toddlers of their age progress and developed so rapidly that there will be lots missed out if updating is not done on a regular basis. To say the least, Zethan belong to the category of the 'slowest' in development as opposed to his peers. Having said that, children develop at different pace and there should be no comparison or minimum comparison. Easier said than done right, naturally we can't help but compared and can act hysterical over the slow development.
A classic example is speech development. Zethan is extremely slow in this department although I am relieved and proud to share that he caught up quite significantly over the last few months. His vocabulary expanded tremendously (at least I felt it is tremendous improvement). The list goes: -
School Bus - Sgool Bus (with a funny slang, love it)
Uncle - On goh
Auntie - Ah T
Robot - Ah Bah!!!
Floor - Four
Wet - Weet
Mickey Mouse - Mimi mouse
Mr Bean - Bee
Push - Push
Milk Milk - milk milk
Rubbish - Barbish
No touch - no touch
Mei Mei - Mei Mei
Di Di - Di Di
Blue - Boo
Red - reat
Juice - Juice (pronounced very accurately)
Daddy - Daddy
Mummy - Mummy
Grandma - Ma
Wait - wait
Poo - Poo
Apple - Apt ple
Yoghurt - Ah good
Bread - Bao
Zethan finally hit 13kg last weighed at home so it's a plus minus thingy. Height have yet to be established since he don't wished to be measured when we are at PD. He is much more cheery these days though still appear shy when people looked at him. All it take is abit of warm up and he will be all good.
He is accepting varieties of food much better than before perhaps attributed by better ability to chew. What is lacking badly is fruits intake as besides apple, he is rejecting most if not all other fruits.One observation which is yet to be confirmed, his body can't take oily food and rejected by throwing up subsequently.
Zethan is super addicted to TV. Once he woke, immediately requested for the TV to be on. Grandma become his TV menu by switching to his favourite cartoon shows at the respective timeslot. Not very encouraging but too late for intervene. He love to pack his toys in bags, lined toys in a row repeatedly (got me in a mad suspicsion of autism), particular in sorting of toys e.g. single unit of mega blocks must be sorted together, same color grouping, recently developed love for dog stuff toys over Mickey Mouse. He will insist on bringing his stuffed toy dog along when we are out, kissed him goodbye / goodnight including the stuffed dogs, hugged goodbye with him then stuffed dogs too.
Definitely a very fun and interesting stage Zethan is in currently and I am enjoying every bit of it to the extent feeling time spent with him is insufficient. Of course there are days when he drive me up the wall but that's what motherhood is all about especially that of toddler's behaviour. One moment all pleased and happy and the very next whiny, feisty. When we are out, he cling on to me like a koala bear, refuse to walk, rejected the daddy, refuse the stroller or if he ever goes into the stroller, he must make sure he is holding on to my hand or even one finger. Once back home, a total different situation, directly opposite. Rejected me big time, the daddy had to bath him, never be out of sight, put him to bed etc.
A long post indeed, once got started, everything start spilling without any full stops and commas apparently. Till the next post, hopefully not very long..
