My Active Little Munchkin
Halooooooooo!
Its been a while since i last updated Deena’s development… So here’s some of the new tricks she’s mastered over the months:
- Clapping when she’s happy or excited
- Doing some of the actions to the song “When you’re happy and you know it…” ie: clapping, slapping her knees etc (She tries to snap her fingers but of course tak jadik la kan.. I know grown adults who can’t do it.. huhu)
- My girl LOVES music. If she hears a song with an uptempo beat, she will start dancing, rocking her body to and fro in time with the music. If she’s standing she will use her knees too!
- Her current fave song is Jason Mraz - I’m yours.. If she starts to cry, play this song and she will automatically stop crying and start “dancing” to the music! Don’t ask me why… ;P
- Waving goodbye ala princess/miss universe (super cute!)
- Making the same gesture everytime she hears the word “Habis”
- Can high five
- Saying “Mama” (for me), “Abah” (for my hubby), “Dada” (for “Jidda”, what she calls my mom — its arabic for grandma) and of course, “Mamam” (whenever she sees her food or me preparing to breastfeed her hehe. Oh and she also says it when she wants to be fed!)
- Lotsa babytalk like Gagagagaga or Blablablabla
- Feeding herself from a plate
- Tak teh at warp speed!
- Cruising — walking while holding on to the couch or push toy
- Climbing on her push toy cum tricycle (tricycle?? it has 4 wheels ler.. hehe) by herself
- Climbing up the stairs!! She just climbed 7 steps while my mom just turned her back for a few minutes! (This one paling pening skali. Anyone know where to get cheap baby safety gates??)
- Pulling out heavy drawers and cupboard doors (tak padan ngn kecik!)
- Scolding ppl ie: Haip!! or Ah!! with a garang face
- Putting handphones, toy phones, remotes to her ear everytime as if talking on the phone…
- She’s scared of my hubby’s pet cat in Banting named Mogi. She’ll scream and hug me/hubby super tight whenever she sees Mogi. But then again, I’m scared of Mogi too! Huhuhu.
- Tapping my arm every time I hug her or try to put her to sleep, just like how I tap her bum lightly to put her to sleep
Well methinks that’s all I can remember at the moment. I’m sure there’s more but I just cant remember them all sometimes.. Mommie-brain, you know. Huhu. Newayz, just so you know, my Deena is 9 months and 3 weeks old already. Do you think her development is ok for her age? Anyone knows, do advise.. Till next entry then, ciao!
