Babbling Baby - 26 September 2007, Wednesday

You have been very "talkative" now.
Your repertoire of sounds is increasing and the frequency of hearing you "talk" is higher too.
"Bah bah bah"
"Mah mah"
"Aieeee"
"Dah dah"
You also love to "chit chat" with us.
When I mimic your babbles, you will reciprocate with.

You have also learned to sign for "milk" and "no more".
When singing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Stars", you may (when your mood is good) also do the action for the stars.
Clapping hands is also something you have started to do more frequently.
The most recent one would be you waving your arms around. It may refer to "bye" or "hello".

You like to exercise... in other words, you will pull yourself to stand up against the sofa or the coffee table.
You even attempted to climb onto the coffee table to reach for your favourite remote control or my ball of wool (really wonder whether you are a kitten by nature).

Your "Smelly" - 14 September 2007

You are very attached to me as if I am your little "smelly".
Then recently I realised that you have another "smelly" - your Tigger.
You had always grabbed Tigger's ears and gum them.
We thought nothing about it as it was during your teething period.
Of course, every week Tigger would go for a bathe in the washing machine so that its ears would not get too dirty.
Now, you not only chew on the ears, you start to hold on to them.
When you are sleeping, with your eyes close, you will search for Tigger's ears and hold them in your hands.

First tooth - 7 September 2007

Your first tooth made its appearance about a week ago.
Its kind of exciting to see the little white top out of the gum.
However, it makes nursing you a little painful.
But you have been a rather good girl as you did not bite me.

Learning to stand - 6 September 2007, Thursday

You have been learning to stand up on your two feet holding onto things nearest to you for support. So it can be quite fun to see you push your butt up into the air and then stand up. And of course, it is also fun to see you losing balance and sit down on you bump looking kind of confuse.
