Development:
- He is 80% potty trained at nanny's place. Either he will 'tell' or when he tried to take the potty out, it's his sign of telling us. If we are not fast enough, of course he will poo in his nanny. So you can imagine how he has trained his nanny to be in the lighting speed in taking out the potty, remove his nappy and put him to sleep on the potty.

- At times, he will touch his 'birdie' when he wets his nappy. He is starting to signaling to us his nappy is wet.

- He is having separation anxiety with me every morning when I dropped him to his nanny. While walking to the nanny's house, I have to 'negotiate' with him where the nanny will bring him to 'kai kai'. Most of the time, I will tell him he has to wear his shoes before he gets to go "kai kai". So, when we reached nanny's house, he will let nanny carry him and straight point to the shoes. He remembered!!!!

- He loves book over than his cars/toys. There are few of his favourite books that we used to read to his sister, they are not thorn mostly and full of tapes on most of the pages. He would run to the book shelve, take out the book, walk back to us and sit on our lap.

- I have introduced the 2 pieces of puzzle set few weeks back. Out of 4 vehicles, he is able to recognize 2, ie "car" and "aeroplane'. When I tried to teach further, he would run away! Well, i am happy with it at his speed.

- Point to his "teeth", "nose", "eye", "ear" and "head" whenever we asked him. Thanks to the nanny.

- Nod and shake his head indicating 'yes' and 'no".

- Point at the right person (only family members + nanny's family) when we ask him.

- He is a stubborn person. When he wants the thing, he will want the thing. He will wail until we either give in or distract him. He is not an easy compromising child.

- He is still a light sleeper. During afternoon nap, even we tip toe walking out, he is able to 'tell'. So we literally need to nap with him during day time!

- He has outgrown his playpen bed as he was able to push his pillows and toys to be the 'stepping stone' and lift one of his leg out. We have put him to sleep on single bed mattress now by his own.

- He doesn't like hair cutting. The moment he sat on my lap, the 'loud speaker' started the end of cutting. He has never received a complete hair cut becoz we have to do it very fast in shaving him. The layering/trimming process is always done 70% becoz he started to struggle by moving the whole body! Because of this reason, we have to 'crew cut' him because that's the fastest and safest.
