17 Months Old

Angel is entering into her 17 months old today and she is growing well. She is 77cm tall (25-50 percentile) and is a hefty 11kg toddler (50-75 percentile). Angel still loves her milk and solid very much and her favourite food is bananas still. Sometimes she would wake up in the middle of the night crying and keep pushing me….. wanting me to make her milk. @~@ I was so sleepy these few weeks coz her appetite seems getting better and better despite she is having solid and 10 oz of milk before she sleeps. She has found a new best friend now – Barney, and she loves watching and dancing along with her Barney DVD. She would even know how to switch the TV channel with the remote control and switch on the TV manually all by herself. Her napping time has switched from 2 naps into 1 nap which means mommy have lesser and lesser time for herself coz the little princess and getting very attached to mommy and even wants mommy to be around while she is watching her DVDs. When we go out, she would want mommy to push her buggy instead of her daddy (if not, she will be crying until she saw my hands on her buggy) and also wants mommy to feed her or else, she would not open her mouth. Naughty little girl she is :)

She has learned to pick up her belongings and would put then back into places before having her lunch, dinner and sleeping time. She would even pick up tiny pieces of biscuits and hair on the floor and dropped them into the bin without being asked to do so. She would also place her shoes and mommy’s shoes back to the shoe cabinet when mommy tells her. I think her tidy-up training is really a success. Her potty training still in the progress and I will be patient with her and give her more time in this area.

So far she is still using her baby language to communicate to us except “muum muum” (eating) and “Ma ….. Ma” (mommy) which she can speak loudly and very clear. She has a total of 8 teeth at this moment and no sign of another tooth is coming out soon. So I guess she still needs to continue feed on her porridge rather then rice for the moment being.
