A is 26 months old
That's A peeking into a binoculars at a playground.
At 26 months, he clearly knows his routine very well and knows what to do without you telling him what to do. Some examples:
1. When we were in the lift and he saw people inside, he smiled at them and waved bye to them automatically when we left the lift.
2. When we arrived at his grandparents' house, he knew that we would be going off to work and waved bye to us automatically.
3. When we came back for dinner, he pointed to the kitchen and told us to go "Mum Mum" (eat).
4. When we were on the road, he seemed to be able to recognize the way home and would point to the correct direction and kept exclaiming "There! There!" as his Daddy drove back home.
5. When it's time to drink milk, he knew the procedures and asked for the things to be laid out before he drank his milk.
He also develops his sleep routine - sleeps early between 8:30am and 9:30am and wakes up early at 7am.
He says "Hump", "到家了", "Apple" (Perfectly), "Diaper" (which sounds a little like his Apple), "Door", "Car" (just today!). Otherwise, he's just happy pointing at places and objects that he wants to go to or to get. He loves to play in playgrounds (esp play house and steering wheels) and hide-and-seek (you hide, he seek). I love it when he laughed out loud when he found us! :)
A new skill: I caught him picking things up with his toes instead of bending himself down to pick up with his fingers. I knew he must have seen either his grandpa or myself doing this! Ha!
I must say he's pretty playful at this age. When we put on his one of his socks, he'll playfully shrink his other foot away and purposely make it difficult for you to wear the other pair of sock on. He laughs and giggles while we are trying to catch hold of his leg! Since his room change (we swapped his bedroom with the study room), he has access to the volume control of the hi-fi in his room and every night, he'll had his fun dialing the volume to the loudest and had a good laugh before he's willing to lie down and sleep. :D
When we put on his jacket to keep him warm one day at NTUC, we suddenly realised that he has really grown up! His jacket is now too small. Also with his jacket, he has also outgrown his socks, swimming suit and some Pajamas. Time to go shopping!
He was sick for twice in the past month! He had flu and a viral attack that lasted quite long and he passed the virus to me. DC and I felt so heart-pained to see him sick and restless!
After he recovered, we resumed our weekly outdoor outings. This month, we went Underwater World to see dolphin and fishes, East Coast Park (twice) to play sand and Swimming at his grandaunt's place. He also had his weekly playground sessions at his childcare centre, enrichment schools and church.
He also played with lantern (but he doesn't like lantern walking - I wonder why?) and ate lots of mooncakes during the lantern festival.
Oh, how fun it is to be a toddler! :)
