Anyway first i hope to pen down my 2 kids activities and development. Let's start with Sean, since he is the eldest.
He is now going for full time child care, i can actually witness and feel it myself that he has actually grown up to a bigger boy and no more our little baby that he used to be. Very independent in alot of way, but timid and whinny still. I often drop by the school during mid day to check on him when I am not working and he seems to be interacting well with his friends which i am glad.
Academic wise (Numberacy and Literacy), i think he is doing alrite, he can write A-Z (not very nice but eligible), recognizing numbers up till 30.Doing simple sums,coloring, spelling. But all these needs to be done when he is in a good mood.
Still a TV addict, this hasnt change, worst part is he is also hook on to the computer these days. So I bought some computer games for him. Those educational ones, so i can kill 2 birds with one stone. He gets to play with computer games at the same time learning. However he didnt really enjoy it, maybe because he thinks the mummy is being boring and buying those study game for him.But for benefit of doubt, i will try to navigate him through the game which i haven't so I am not sure if he really understand what he needs to do.
Can be a good helper(again this only happen when he is in a good mood). Helping us to do simple housework, like helping us by picking all those dirty laundry to put into the laundry bags, getting mei mei stuff from her wardrobe, as mei mei's room is very far way from us.
Of course kids are still kids, he can be a disobedient at times, simply refuse to listen to you, now he is even at the stage where he ignores me when I am lecturing him which drives me mad. He just won't answer you, and u have to ask a few times before he replies.
I am still very worried about his health. Sometimes he can eats alot, sometimes he simply refuse food.Sometimes complaint about stomachache, not sure really aching or it's something else.
Very active boy, where you can see that he prefers physical activities like jumping, running etc.....than reading a book, writting or coloring on his own.I am starting to worry about him academicly as he doesn't really show keen interest in it.He rather do his own thing, or play and play and play.
Sharlene, is now 1yr+, as i look at her, i notice that she definetely grown up alot. She is now in her toddler stage, no more baby. Very demanding and sticky gal, constantly sticking to me. Whenever i go she is like a shadow following me around, mind you, this includes, my bathing, and toilet time.(when Jerry is not around). Still very fussy about her food, I begin to suspect she is a vegetarian, she is happy to eat most fruits and vege, but not so much on meat(chix,fish). She luvs music and singing, when we switch on the music for her, she will sing and clap her hands and smile widely.
She hasn't walk yet, still crawling, and cruising, maybe because of her body size, she may find it hard to balance herself well,not to mention walk.She has now got 8 tooth altogether 4top and 4 bottom.She has got a nick call shredding machine, as she basically will go around the house to find paper and eat it up bit by bit. Because she usually cries if i don't carry her and out of sudden you find it too quiet, you will find her hiding in a corner chewing on whatever paper she can find.I think she now weight 10kg+.
She is now in the stage where she will fight with the Brother if he tries to snatch her toys away, or Sean refuse to give her what she wants.She will scream and scream, trying to snatch or hit the Brother.But because she is younger, she usually lose the the Brother unless either myself or Jerry comes in.
She even know how to "chu" pattern these days, like when she had done something wrong and we scolded her. She will tilt her head, look down, the eyes dare not look at either me and Jerry, dare not move, whole body freeze for short while.Then she will use her eyes to peep at us, to see if we have further action.If we show our angry face she will continue to look down and continue not to move for a little while, then she will quietly crawl away thinking that we do not know.
It's funny to see how they behave, so sometimes we just pretend to be angry......
As for myself nothing much changes, just that with all the help gone, I foresee myself to be busier.Looking forward to the trip next year.Jerry got his promotion,hopefully more promotions on the way.....
We have more or less settled into the house, had our house warming cum Sharlene's birthday party on 11/10/09. We were bless to have good weather, good food and good friends to grace the event.Photos below :
