One more month countdown to En & Ze’s birthday. Let me record down some of Ethan development before he turn 1 on 28th next month.
PhysicalI am not sure about his weigh nor his height, but definitely he is taller but not as chubby as before. He can walk and even run now with mummy’s support.
EatingHe absolutely loves eating. See below picture of his mouth full of rice.(This lovely snake attire is from Sanyee)
When he sees us eating, he tries to reach out and grab.
Now will want him to sit on high chair at the dining table to have meal together with us, so he doesn’t have to stare at us eat. Sometimes he wants to try what is on our plates, so we’ll give him a suck on the fruit we’re eating, or give him 2-3 rice grains to munch.
He still on 2 solid meals (lunch- cereal and dinner-porridge ~3/4 bowl) and have his milk 2 hourly , snacks on babybites biscuit at noon time.
He loves pumpkin, apple, pear, kiwi, sweet potato, papaya,carrot, spinach, plum, brocoli and biscuits. He used to be banana lover but refused banana twice these two days, using his tongue to push it out and turning away from the spoon.
He enjoys meal time, opening his mouth eagerly, shouts out when the feeding is not quick enough.
SleepingHe takes 2 naps in the day for about 2 hours per nap. Most of the night, he can sleep soundly and morning call me at about 7.30am for feed
Sometimes, he will crawl to my side and “sayang” my face in the middle of night. I will just suck him on tutu and he will continue to oioi.
EmotionHe is using same method to fake a cry if what he wanted was denied.
E.g. When I walk on without carrying him, he’ll fake a cry, “maam, maam, with eyes fixed on me.
He will insist on his demand
E.g. If I don’t give in to his fake cry, wave bye bye at him, and disappear, his tears will start flowing, and he’ll start arching his back, straightening legs, and bawl.
If I pick him up, he’ll stop crying immediately and show his smile. It’s the same when the toy he wants is given to him, he’ll stop his crying, and immediately play with the toy happily. That’s one thing good about him, he gets pacified easily. But…. It will just take about 15 minutes and he will cry again like there was no tomorrow !!
But the above apply “exclusively” only to Mummy.
He prefer to be carried by lady than man !!
Eg- Look at the photoes shown on “ Gathering with dajiu,…..
He never used to be that particular about who carrying him, but these two months is different. He needs time to warm up to people whom he doesn’t meet that often.
He enjoy playing with but will bully and disturb when En is doing something.
Normally En will say "aiyo" and hide to the other corner to continue with her work.
He likes1) to shake on any objects he gets his hands on
2) to stand and walk as if he can walk on himself
3) anything that makes sound and music
4) to sit in the car and enjoy the traffic scene ( He can sit still in the car sit with jie jie without mummy and enjoy his travel time)
5) bath and pool time
\
6) to read on particular page (vehicle) on story book , by boy's nature.
7) to pinch hard on others body and its extremely painful, really feel like smack him at the point of time
OthersHe can understand more vocab and will look at the object when we mention sofa, photoes, TV, plant, flower, chair, aeroplane,bird, dog... and not forgetting lizard.
His favourite set of flash card
His playmate at this period only en en and Ashley
Sometimes he feels manja and lays his head on my shoulder when I carry him. But I think this is not the way a boy should behave lah
I just love this little cheeky boy and not forgetting his little sweetie jiejie !!
Notice his fringe ? cute
