As for Keath, the terrible two tantrums are REAL. It has becoming more frequent and intense, but he will become a different person after the tantrums are over. But when he is at it, he wants means he wants, cannot take no for an answer and will keep crying. Then Zeth will cry together with him. I hear things will only get better when they turn 4 years old. So, that's another 4 years for me huh. This month:
- He tells me that he likes mummy and didi
- Calls his father darling sometimes. Cos that's what I call alv!
- Recognises the objects in school and would tell us when he see smth similar from school.
- He's a real observant kid. Small things that you didn't think are important or significant, he would remb the details and surprise you with it. I sometimes didn't even notice it.
- Likes me to engage him in a conversation on the things that happen in school.
- Able to wear his own shorts, diapers and shoes already! Hates it when you do it for him. Basically he wants to do everything himself, regardless of whether he is able to.
- Recognises the numbers 1 to 10 and some alphabets. Was surprised when he said 'B1' in one of the mall lift buttons!
- Can comment on whether his tee-shirt or shoes are comfortable to wear.
- Would often engage with Zeth. Like when he returns from school, when Zeth wakes up, he will say hello and talk to Zeth. When Zeth cries, he will sayang him and say it's ok, don't have to cry. <3 <3
- He would tell us if he got scolded in school/ fell down/ cry etc.
- He can articulate the plot of his storybooks with short phrases.
- He's not a fussy eater since young. This month, he could feed himself with medicine in a syringe. Most amazingly, TCM medicine also can! I dissolved those powder in like 10ml of water and he gulped it down in 3 mouths together with an 'ewww' expression.
