43 months - Stage speech 17 months - Always looking for korkor

Very busy nowadays, no time to update this space! Hahah, not as disciplined to keep this updated as regularly already. This year, Keath's school is building up their confidence. There is a dedicated time where the students have to go on stage to do a speech on a particular topic using a microphone. Of course, they will ask us to help them prepare at home before going. But wow, there is such a thing for a 3-4 year old child nowadays. So when we asked how did Keath do, the teacher said that he did surprisingly well! He was not nervous and was able to speak in proper and complete sentences. I was still thinking that he would be nervous and all but he was not. I also asked if he was scared and he answered me immediately without thinking that he was not, which meant he really was not. Very proud of you Keath!

Keath is also a compassionate and sweet child. I just went for a wisdom tooth extraction and i told him that i was in pain. He sayang me and says that it will make the pain go away. Awww i melted when he said that. And when i wanted to go out of the room to tell mil smth, he said he will help me do it as i will be painful if i walked out. This sweet, sensitive and sentimental boy. Keath can also tailor the way he speaks and pronounce with different people. Haha, so mil will pronounce some words her way and when Keath talks to her, he pronounces it the way she does. And when he says the exact same word to us, he pronounces it the way we do. He knows that our version is the correct one but somehow, he will just want to blend in with mil instead of correcting her. Again, i would say that it is his sensitive personality :)

We also brought him to the carnival at Marina Bay last weekend. I must say that he has become more daring! Rides that he was afraid one year ago, he no longer is afraid now and enjoys it! While we could see that he was scared for some of the rides, he told us that he wasnt scared and would want to take the ride again. Good that he has become more daring! This means that we are off to a good start by bringing him to amusement parks already. But one thing is, Zeth is still below 90cm. He cant take any rides. Probably when he turns 2, we can start going to USS, legoland and travel to other amusement parks in the other countries already :)

As for Zeth, this is the last month whereby he will be a stay at home kid. Going to school on 1 April already, meaning that he would have turned 18 months by then! :( So sad that time is passing by so quickly. I no longer have babies, they are toddlers now. The last round when Keath was 16 months, i was already preggy with Zeth. Heheh, but now no more. Dont have the courage to handle 3. Zeth is very mischievous. He likes to give you the naughty face and is consciously being naughty sometimes now. Whenever he doesnt get his way, he will lay on his tummy on the floor, including when he is outside in a mall. Keath wouldnt do this last time, he will just cry. But Zeth doesnt care about the dirty floor, he will just lie there (and get up quickly after we leave him there). Naugthy or not!

He can say many 1 word syllabus and we basically know what he means when he says smth. He can take a piece of tissue to wipe his mouth after he eats and likes feeding himself (making a mess in the process). Whenever we ask him to go to bed, he will ask what about korkor and we will have to bluff him that korkor is also gg to bed. Korkor is also very cooperative. During Zeth's bedtime at 8ish pm, Keath will also go into the room and off his lights so that Zeth will go to sleep. We will turn on the lights after Zeth goes into his bedroom. hahaha kenna tricked. And when Zeth wakes up in the middle of the night, he will ask whether korkor is up. When he wakes up in the morning, he again will ask for korkor and if korkor is up, he will not want to drink his morning milk. Will want to play! So basically korkor has to hide in times like this when we want didi to sleep and drink milk XD

And nowadays it's so hard to bring Zeth out for a walk. He refuses to let us hold his hand or be carried or sit in a stroller. He basically only wants to hold korkor's hand and the 2 of them will walk off tangent. Or he will be naughty and squat down after walking for a while, causing the 2 of them to fall together. Naughty boy ar Zeth.
