Time has really fly past fast, Sean is almost 14months old now!!!. Looking back, being a parent is never an easy task. We are constantly being deprieved from our sleep, watching our fav movies, doing our usual shopping etc etc... But just a hug and kiss from him , it will just melt your heart completely. You will feel that whatever you have given up has been return back to you in double.
Recently we notice that Sean has started to test his boundaries and becoming more assertive. He will shake his head,turn away from you or cry out loud if he does not want something. If we do not give him something he wants, he will throw tantrum which I i will say at times is not easy to coax him into wanting other things instead. He is quite firm at the things he wants at time, which i somehow i feel that it is good, as he really know what he likes and wants and what he doesnt rather then just accepting everything that we give him.
At his age, everything arouses his curisousity.......it's the development stage where he instinctly need to know about the cause-effect and explore relentlessly. I am getting concerned as we want to adopt a positive parenting style and yet worried about teaching him the wrong values. Perhaps I should start to find time to read more in this areas.
He has been drooling alot lately, then only i notice that his little teeth sprouting out on the left side. I am not sure what is it call, but i promise to go and find out. I think this is also the reason why he has not been eating his proper meal well lately. I must say that we are quite lucky, ***not sure if i say it too early*** but he doesnt really bite people. As I heard from a couple of my frens who have kids around the same age as Sean, they actually got bitten by the kids which at times cause bruises or even leaving a scar there.
Sean has been heaping on us surprises week after week with his walking skill. The last I remember mentioning that he can actually walk very fast, follow by just walking confidently with his shoe on. But now he can really runs with his shoe on. 2days ago me and my mum went to OG to got him a pair of sandals, we let him wear it immediately after paying for it. He got so excited that he started running around in his new sandals. There is this aunty(salesgal) find him really cute and start chasing after him. So they both actually play catching inside the mall. After a while he stop and dance (shake his bon bon) when he heard his favourite music from the HI-5 programme being played. When we wanted to put him back to the pram he actually refused, so i think he really enjoy walking alot. I am actually considering buying "a leash" not sure what it is called in a nicer term, but simple english "leash" to leash him up so that when i bring him out I can let him walk by himself at the same time I dont have to keep chasing after him since he is being leash up. Haha!!!
We are trying to teach him simple words, so we actually got him a Alphabetical Chart, with simple pictures to relates to the alphabet. Jerry has also got him some new flash cards. We have not started on it yet, probably we try this weekend. Let him start with the things that he is familiar with first, like balloons, apples, telephone, which he already know what is it, only cant read it out yet. Hopefully few weeks down the road he can read to me on the things that I have teach him. And hopefully he can call Mummy and Daddy very soon . ( He cant call us now, but he knows clearly who is Mummy and Daddy and Waipo)
