gaby turns 13months today - on Mother's Day, how nice is that!
ps: actually mommy completely forgot about it until much much later...tsk, tsk, tsk...
now that gaby's officially entering toddlerhood; the house is definitely getting more rowdy (read: noisy) and fun (read: more headahce!). besides the need to safe-proof the environment as this little fella is so much more curious, inquisitive and adventurous, we also need to ensure we keep an eye on him almost 24/7; well, except when he's sleeping... :)
some milestone updates:
* more stable in his walking, sometimes he's even attempting to run when we try to 'chase' him from behind. he will only crawl occasionally when playing with toys and is able to sit/squat from standing position and vice versa without help.
* attempting to 'jump' whenever he sees Chloe jumps and shrieks.
* shown some interests in flipping board books instead of just watching Hi5 (finally!!!)
* loves going out - will make lots of noises and hung on to either daddy/mommy/caretaker's legs so that we will carry him to go for walks. :)
* still learning hard on his pincer grip; but finally able to hold his own milk bottle and sippy bottle (with sprout, not straw)
* able to wave bye-bye and giving flying kisses
* moving on to eat a little bit more of adult food - but mainly still chunky porridge, etc
* loves fruits, especially those citrus (sour till buay tahan type!) fruits!
* dealing with separation anxiety, independance, sibling rivalry, ownership (of toys & mommy!), needs and wants.
despite him being stubborn in his own right, gaby's actually quite a charming little fella and he never fails to give us his cutest innocent smile; especially when he knows he has done something naughty and yet wants to be spared from being reprimanded.
and we hope he'll grow up strong and healthy, and as daddy likes to put it : being less "姑娘" (read: sissy-like; mainly coz of his high-pitched shrieks). bad daddy! :D
