First Travel on Plane

Backdated post:
We brought Baby to my sis's wedding in Kuantan last month. Baby had his first flying experience. He was on his pacifier during take off and landing to prevent any ear pain due to the change of pressure. sandbox, my mum and I were sitting in a row and we managed to keep him entertained throughout the journey on the plane. He flipped through the magazine and we introduced the airplane to him by pointing at the picture. He tried to pronounce "Fei Ji' with his cute voice. When he got restless, our final solution was to let him watch Despicable Me using our Note2.

16 months

My baby has become a toddler now. He can walk by himself around the room. If he got hold of your hand, he will rush for the stairs, saying "Up! Up!". He will do the same at the elevator in shopping malls.

He loves cartoon, and will tell you "cartoon" when he wanna watch. But he don't watch just any cartoon. He only watch Despicable Me. And we have accompanied him through it N times, until he knows when Kyle will bite Gru's hand, when Miss Hattie will scold the gals and so on. He will shake his hand when Gru got bitten, and show you a stern face when the gals got scolded. We bought him some stickers and the McD figurine of Minions. The name he gave the Minions is "BaBaBa". Just until lately, he started to watch Hotel Transylvania.Dancing and singing seem to be of his interest too. His favourite dance song is Big Bang's Fantastic Baby. You will receive a big smile from him if you play his favourite song.

By now, Baby has about 10 hard board books on the shelf at the same level reachable for him. He can identify a few objects in the book and tell you the name. He enjoyed flipping through the book himself. sandbox bought him a Fisher Price Shape Sorter Bucket. He can put in the circles & squares, but not the stars and cross yet.



Playing ball is his favourite sport. He can throw the ball to you and expect you to throw it back and play catch with him. He loves going to the basketball court near sandbox's house. He even wants to go in the court and play with the adults.

We have been trying to brush his teeth, but still failed. I bought a training tooth paste for him, but he ate it twice, so I stopped applying it on the tooth brush for now. He already had most of his teeth grown, I am really worried of him getting tooth decay.

The Taska told us to stop bringing him porridge one month ago. The teacher said he was unhappy when other kids were having rice from the Taska but he alone had to take porridge. So, he started to take rice with soup in the Taska both morning & afternoon. As for milk, he drinks Abbott Gain Plus Eye Q Step 3, 6 Oz 3 scoops per serving, 4 servings per day.

Some words that he speaks:
Ya Ya - sandbox's dad
Po Po - my mum
Gong Gong - my dad
Daddy - sandbox
Guk Guk - sandbox's brother & my brother (supposed to be Shu Shu & Jiu Jiu)
Ma Ma - me (so far he only called me once)
Suo Shi - Key
Star
Er-la - Umbrella
Xia Yu - Raining
Apple
Ball
Dog dog
Bao - Cat (supposed to be Mao)
Bao Bao - hug
