Nazhan's Milestone: 18th & 19th months

Nazhan dah masuk umur 20 months pun minggu lepas tapi mommy baru terhegeh-hegeh nak update about his achievement during his 18th and 19th months old age.

(1) Physical Milestones
love to run, sampaikan sensei dia cakap dia asyik berlari je dalam kelas.
may go up stairs by himself, but he'll need some help on the way down. tapi kalau nak suruh dia panjat tangga dari ground floor sampai ke tingkat 5 *umah kitorang*, jenuh kena tunggu.
Feed self with spoon and fork, tak nak makan kalau mommy/daddy suapkan.

=- makan temaki sushi yang mommy buat comot2 je -=

Brush teeth with help
wear his own diapers / training pants / pants with little help
Positioned his body photogenically and well aware of a camera. Memang makin pandai bergaya, nampak kamera hala kat muka dia je terus lentok kepala + senget2 badan + strike 'peace' sign dengan jari telunjuk

=- posing kepala senget macam yang mommy selalu ajar -=

(2) Mental milestones
fussy on the type of food to eat, asyik nak makan sushi , udon, anggur & strawberry
understood the act of going to toilet every one hour for his potty session
like to be read to, thus mommy/daddy must read him books before bedtime or whenever he asked for it

=- boleh baca ABC upside down, hebat tak? eheh -=

(3) Verbal & Communication Skills
able to name several part of his body
able to say these words such as apple, banana, ball, car, cat, dog, fish, one, star, moon, badak, hippo, nak

= video: Nazhan showing parts of his body -=

(4) Social changes
dah tak jealous sangat bila mommy riba baby lain, *apakah Nazhan dah sedia nak ada adik? uhuk3x*

=- suka sangat dengan bau baby baru lahir, wangi -=

pretend playing with his teddy bear. He'll shake hands, hugs and kiss the teddy. Pretend play like this is a great example of imitation, and a sign that Nazhan is learning to empathize with others.
Very affectionate with mommy & daddy. He likes to sit on lap and cuddle because he knows it's a time when he has our undivided attention.

=- asyik nak beriba dengan mommy & berdukung dengan daddy -=

On another story, malam tadi Nazhan tiba2 berkelakuan 'pelik'. Masa I tengah masak, around pukul 10mlm gitu, dia main bola kat depan pintu bilik dia (merangkap pintu bilik tempat menjemur baju di musim winter ni). Tiba2 masa dia nak ambil bola yang jatuh betul2 depan pintu bilik tu, dia menangis ketakutan. Kita boleh beza kan macamana tangisan anak yang lapar, yang ngada2 or tengah takut. He made several attempt to pick up the ball but end up dia give up dan menangis ketakutan each time dia dekat dengan pintu bilik tu.


Bila I nak tidurkan dia, asyik nangis je walaupun dah menyusu beberapa kali. Bila I tengok dalam mata dia, Nazhan renung semula mata I tanpa berkelip. Selalunya kalau I renung mata dia, Nazhan akan stop nangis tapi malam tadi dia tak takut dengan I dan balas balik renungan I. Bila I alih badan dia, mata di asyik tengok kat pintu sliding door bilik kami je. I dah cuak, terus tutup mata dia dengan tangan I ..pastu tiba2 dia gelak sorang2. Kalau nak kata mengigau mata dia masih duk merenung siling bilik tak berkelip. Haisy, terus I suruh hubby pasang surah Al-Baqarah sebab dah ada rasa seram. Tak lama lepas tu, dia tidur nyenyak sampai pagi...tapi I yang tak dapat nak tidur nyenyak sebab duk fikir bukan2 dah.. aiseh!.


Pagi tadi hubby cakap maybe Nazhan berkelakuan 'pelik' malam tadi sebab letih di bawa shopping ke Costco petang semalam dan jugak letih bermain dengan aktifnya petang tu masa kat rumah Kak Nora. OK, I memang boleh terima alasan letih tu sebab tu dia berkelakuan 'pelik' masa nak tidur, tapi apa pulak explanation untuk tangisan ketakutan dia masa main bola sorang2 depan pintu bilik tu?. Wooooossssssshh, errrrr takperlah..I tak nak tahu kot apa sebabnya uhuhuhu.


Psssssttt: semalam pergi shopping kat Costco semata2 sebab I nak beli Macaroons , tp hubby cakap macaroons yang I buat lagi sedap. Kembanggg kempis hidung yang dah sedia kembang ini ngeeeee.
