She can:
- walk holding on to something. Especially our dining chairs. Doesn't like to hold our hands to walk
- wave bye and hi
- play peek-a-boo with her clothes or hands
- sign milk and finish (usually when I say the words. Has done it on her own but rarely)
- point. taught her that so it looks like '1' for her birthday
- pick up things with quite a good pincer grasp
- drink from her straw cup with hardly any spills
- drink from a cup (needs to be fed) but will spill (she's always biting the rim)
- use her brush to brush her hair
- put objects inside a container (but prefers taking things out)
- understands when we say clap, arms up
- understands when I say no
- respond to her name
Talking
Her first word is EAT! as far as I can distinguish. Whenever its time for meals I will tell her eat and stand by her high chair. She will say 'eat' and come near so I can lift her up to her chair.
Sleeping
Takes 2 naps (1-2 hrs). Usually 3 hours total and about 10 hours at night. Bedtime is between 7.30 - 8 pm.
Eating
Breakfast is usually rotated between yogurt with tahini and banana or avocado with cereal. Lunch and dinner is porridge (recently increased to 6.5-7 oz). In a week I usually give her fish 4 times, steam egg 2 times, minced pork or chicken 1 time. This is usually mixed with pumpkin, sweet potato, carrot, broccoli and spinach.
Occasionally I cook with chicken/beef/pork stock but usually it's just flavoured with onions or spring onion. I also hardly give her scallop or ikan bilis. I think I need to start varying her meals a bit.
Discipline
So far not too many issues on this front. We have set certain limits and boundaries and she seems to be able to follow them. We do not allow her to enter the wet kitchen or the bathroom. Also no touching the bins. Usually when something is off limits I say no and she will listen. But I realise it has to be from the start. Or else she has trouble listening. She touched the laptop wires a few times before I noticed and told her no so now it's a bit difficult to get her to listen. I think she feels if she touched it before it's fair game. But we have a mosquito trap which I never allowed her to touch and she makes no attempt to go near it.
