When I See His Eyes...

I saw myself!

From outlook, Sean resembles of his dad. No one will have doubt about their relationship because it was SO SO SO obvious that they look SO SO SO alike!! LOL

From character perspective, he is so me! Stubborn, persistent and determine. He is like a reflection of me! :-(

So now, it's really "hard bang hard" (in Cantonese). Only me can know what and why he is doing and how to handle him!

Sausage Boy

He loves sausages!! It is like his FAVOURITE food!! Oh well, I don't give it to him often because it's processed food and thus, not healthy.

I can't deny when it comes to "fast and easy' food preparation, sausage is always on the top few list. :-) Well, easy for mummy, kids love it! So win win, why not...

Whenever we go picnic, sausage is one of the 'must have' request food from kids (mostly from Ching Ern).

Occasionally 'tutup mata', ok lah! *grin*

Play School

Sean started school on 30th May. Weird day you may say but it was a planned date.
It was a 2 weeks government school break and thus, less students at the play school which allow the teachers to pay attention to Sean. In additional, Ern was in the same school building during school holidays.

Little boy has no problem attending school because he has been seeing his sister goes to school since young. He wave good bye to me and glue to the TV prior the session began.

With Ern around, I am quite comfortable because I know Ern can 'take care' of him by telling teachers what's happening.

As I expected, things went smooth. When I picked both kids up from the school, teacher mentioned no separation anxiety from Sean but he did cried. Cried because he bullied his Che Che and get scolded by the teacher!!! LOL

For the next few days, no tears from him too! Easy in handling Sean in school.

On 2nd week, we started removing his diaper to school. I brought extra shorts pants for him to change. He did missed a few times but after the 4th day, he was almost 80% trained.

Easy for me, I have to say.

Cry Baby

Yup, he knew very well this is his "secret weapon' to get our attention. He will "whine till cry' in getting the things he wanted.

We are in the stage of 'ignoring' him when he is being unreasonable. The 'elderly' members at home were 'heart ache" to see their grandson cry so badly but thank goodness they understand this is for his good. Will see how long Sean takes to overcome this. :-)

Good luck - to his mummy!

Favourite Pose

That's Sean favourite pose, be it sitting, lying on the bed, car seat, etc. He does this!

He must have thought this will make him cool! LOL

Finger Painting

It was his FIRST experience in finger painting. He is hooked with it!. He played with the paint more than coloring the book. Well, that was the whole intend of introducing different texture for him as part of sensorial development.

He is a tough and rough cookie. At times, when he accidentally bang us, we (adults) can feel the impact. He is consider a big size for his age. At 2.4 years old, he weights at 16.9kg and 95cm tall. So many may perceive he is hitting on us in purpose rather than an accident. Well, of coz there are times he did it on purpose. I discovered he is in the phase of 'attention seeking".

The most 'kesian' victim suffering from this is his sis, Ern. We have tried the 'hard' way, ie via punishing and scolding. It doesn't seem to work effectively. So now, I am trying to "soft" way via cuddling and reassurance, to tell him not to repeat. Will see how it turns out!

Sean Turned 2!!

It is as if I have dropped off the face of the planet and lost in the universe! LOL This is the trouble being a blogger. Once the writing habit is out, it is VERY HARD to blog and get started again! Honestly, I have been busy at work (but heck, which mother is free!!) but again, this isn't an excuse! Blame it on me, kids!

Anyway, my little boy turned 2 on February 16th. The family members + nanny's family had a good dinner at our usual 'birthday restaurant'. Sean has improved tremendously on his speech in which, he is 'talking' to us now. Although the pronunciation is not 100% accurate, he can clearly articulate what he wants. So that make things easy for us to understand his needs.

He has lost all the baby fat on his face & body as he grows. He is starting to lost some of the 'baby smell' too :-( But that doesn't stop me from cuddling and smell on his neck and face! :)

He is in the phase of car! This is also his 'soother' whenever he holds them. So you can imagine the 'car collection' begins! hohoho...

Mummy's boy, still he is! He looks for me almost every moment unless he gets to distracted or asleep. At times, I have to let him cry for me to get my things done. Sorry, boy! Paul the Octopus is dead and don't treat mummy has his 'successor' because I can never have 8 hands!!
