Baby Milestone: 13 Months

Kong Hei Fatt Choy everybody! I'm sure everyone has had a good time chowing down New Year goodies. Well, this is the first time baby "balik kampung" (travelling back to the grandparent's place) coz' last year, he was just a tiny-teeny baby, so travelling was out of the question.

Baby was relatively good travelling 4 hours up north and then 5 hours back. Phew!

Well, it's amazing how babies develop something new each month. Now at 13 months, he...

• has acquired the habit of throwing himself on the ground, throwing a tantrum when he doesn't get what he wants and doesn't get his way. Didn't think the terrible twos started so early eh?


• pats you on the hand or shoulder and then points to what he wants.


• can hold a pencil and make scratchings on paper.


• says "la la la" as if he is singing.


• takes his dirty clothes and puts them in the laundry basket.


• takes the door key and tries to open the door.


• fights with his siblings for things he wants. Screams at them too.


• is getting more and more sticky to me.


• goes down the slide by himself.


• climbs up and down the stairs by himself.


• knows how to give a flying kiss.


• presses the buttons to turn off the t.v. and change the channels.

My baby is getting so big. Hope you enjoy his cheeky smiles. Here he is saying that he is No.1!
