Milestones @17 months, 2 weeks

wow…it’s already the 5th day of the new year…

i’ve been busy recently..entertaining friends from overseas, attending weddings, etc…so busy, i haven’t had time to update my blog at all (not that many ppl will miss it)…

so, finally, today i decided to sneak a bit of my ‘office time’ to update this measly blog of mine…

anyway…so as i mentioned earlier, i was entertaining a lot of friends whom i have not met for a long time..for many of them, it was their first time seeing baby dylan too…and i must say, one of the most common comment i got from them was “He’s so big already”, or “He’s so tall”, or “He looks just like Ooi”!!

and i must admit, indeed my son is starting to look more and more like his daddy…i am feeling slightly jealous about this..hahaha…i know its silly…hahaha…well..i can be quite silly after all..

but yea..dylan is getting bigger….so i will jot down for the very first time some of the notable milestones that my son can do now, for remembrance purposes:

1) he can now say papa very well…doesnt really want to call me mama *sigh*…he can say words like mum mum (for food), nen nen (for milk), ball, bubble..

2) he can identify and differentiate between different cartoon characters he likes like mickey mouse, pocoyo, little einsteins, barney and thomas the train ….recently, he has fallen in love with Hi5…he would sit down quietly in front of the TV watching Hi5 for a good 30 minutes without moving!!!! yes…he is a TV addict tat’s wat u get when u are working full time and your maid lets your son watch TV almost all day long…

3) he loves music a lot and his favourite songs are “If you’re happy and you know it clap your hands”, “Itsy Weensy spider”, “I Love you, you love me” , “Twinkle, twinkle little star” and “Happy Birthday”…hahaha..he’ll even do some of the actions we taught him…

4) He is starting to imitate things that people do…for instance, when we ask him “how ah kong (grandpa) sleep?”, he’ll pretend to snore…

5) he loves to eat everything we eat…especially pasta!!! he can even nibble off the corn on a corn cob on his own..!!

6) he loves to push the furniture in my house around…because he is a very strong fella!! he’ll move the chairs at home, his small study table and all…

7) he loves to go kai kai and knows when we are going to go kai kai..and he’ll cry if we do not bring him with us…gone are the days when we could get someone else to distract his attention while me and Ooi sneaked out…

there are probably many more things to jot down, but i cannot remember at the moment…but this boy of ours..he’s really growing up…he’s getting to be more and more fun to be with…haha..of cos, not everyday is a bed of roses..there are days when he drives me up the wall…but still, i love him so much…

how can one not love this face?? hehe..
