Development:
- Speech development would be the biggest milestone for this month because he is starting to repeat after what we want him to say. this is really a fun time because we get to laugh whenever he says something funny. The latest that we are teaching him right now is numbers in 3 languages - English, Mandarin and Cantonese.

- He is still that bad temper when it comes to "I want my thing'! He will 'show' his anger by raising his hand and hit us.

- I have started naughty corner on him. He was "more than willing" to stand at the naughty corner for a good 20+ minutes and entertained himself (dancing and sitting doing something). Really cannot tahan with this little boy. Only after I 'confronted" him if he could repeat his act, then baru he cried, ran to me and hugged me for forgiveness. VERY stubborn boy.

- His learning speed is faster compare with his che che. On most occasion, I just need to teach him once and he is able to do things. For example, I just need to show him once on my iPhone how to play a baby puzzle, he is able to slide the animal and place on the right box.

- He is able to balance himself well and ride on the kiddy bike alone, operated by battery type. He is able to move the 'sterling" although the sense of direction still out a bit! Considering at this age, not bad. Talking about bike, I told his daddy this boy will grown up a "tekan minyak kaki" because he moved his body forward and lift his butt up during the ride, as in to help him speed up!! Will see.

- He is able to play the puzzle set pretty well. The puzzle set that i have introduced to him are 1) matching the animal with their house 2) pair the same animal of a mother & child (like dog and puppy). I am in the midst of teaching him 'opposite'.

- When it comes to the last night feeding (around 9pm), he is willing to drop the toys/books that he is half way doing, took a pillow and lye down waiting for us to give him the bottle. it's fun seeing that actually...but i tell you, if he is not coping well, there is NO WAY we can force him to even drink a sip! So we more or less know this guy is someone cannot be 'forced'!!

- He is in the stage of mimic what his sis is doing. Mimic EVERYTHING and at times, they will fight after playing for a while. So we will hear 1 crying (Sean) and 1 complain person (his sis). It's noisy at times but that's part of sibling growing up together.
