21 months

Josiah turned 21 months yesterday. At the last checkup last week, he is now 13.5 kg and 85 cm tall. Another 5 cm to reach 90 and be able to ride his new JDBug bike. I guess I was too excited and got it too early. He’s now only 3 months to reach 2 years….

Eating time!

Recently, Josiah has shown signs of wanting to eat on his own. I admit that I had not been helpful in this area as it is always easier and faster to just spoon feed him. It’s definitely highly encouraged to let kids eat on their own no matter how much mess they create, but living…

20 months

Time flies and the number 2 has appeared the months of Josiah’s age. 20 months, really near to 2 years old already. Josiah just survived a terrible viral attack, and I guess we survived it too! Praise God that he is back to he bubbly healthy self and eating a lot once again. He stopped…

When I grow up I wanna be…

We are trying to expose Josiah to various ‘interests’ even at this tender age, who knows this is one of his ambitions when he grows up one day… I wanna be a chef I wanna be an artist Life with a toddler is super interesting, as we find new things for him to play everyday,…

You know they say when a baby starts walking, that’s when he becomes a toddler. After all, to toddle means to walk with slow, unsteady steps. So now is the time to stop calling Josiah a baby coz he took his first steps a couple of days ago. It cam as quite a surprise coz…

At 15 months

It’s been 1 year and 3 months. At this age, Josiah is picking up very fast on his learning. It’s become quite easy to teach him, we just need to show him one time and he knows how to do something immediately. He also began to take instructions very well, such as asking him to…

7 months change

Josiah at 7 months Josiah at 14 months How 7 months can change someone’s looks totally. Staying with Josiah, seeing him everyday, we can hardly tell that he has changed, but looking a the pics, he has changed and grown indeed.

14 Months update

We took Josiah for checkup at 14 months, supposed to be at 12 months, but we had a problem with the clinic that turned us away. That’s another story. So he took his MMR at the private clinic and now returned to govt clinic just to check up and update. At 14 months he is…

Baby games

At 1 year plus, it became very fun to play with Josiah. Especially since he knows how to tell things and express delight, and it’s really fast for toddlers to imitate us. Like this game I was playing with him using a bouncy ball, I just put the ball into his shirt once, and he…
