Sherryn at 19 months

Sherryn at 19 months.

1) She is aggressive!
Sherryn is no pushover. Whenever Kaelyn snatches her toy / book from her, she makes a big fuss and will come complaining to us. She would push her big sister and even hit her!

2) She is starting to speak
But only limited words. She says is able to call out Mama, Papa, Yeye, Nainai, Jiejie, Popo very well. Gong gong is 'ho ho', and Ah yee (my sis) is 'Yayee'. 'Mmmmouse' for Mickey / Minnie mouse, 'Duck' for Donald / Daisy and other real ducks, as well as for everything else. She can say 'Where?' (with a gesture as well) if looking for something or someone. And 'There' when the thing is found.

3) She likes to play peek a boo
She will hide behind a wall, a blanket, a book, the curtains or anything she finds and expects us to look for her. And when we do, she squeals aloud in delight.

4) She loves to go for a walk outside
Many a times she will point to the shoe cabinet and ask us to open the cabinet so she can get her shoes to wear outside. And she will stand at the gate and shout for someone to bring her out.

5) She starts to have an interest in books
When she was younger, she had no interest in books at all. But starting from a few months back, she will bring us books and points to the pictures and words and expects us to read to her.

6) She recognises the family members
She is able to point to family members when we ask.

7) She understands instructions and what we tell her
Although she doesnt speak much, she fully understands most of the things we tell her. The word that she is most afraid of now is 'Sleep'!

8) She can complete an animal puzzle by herself, and wear her own shoe.

9) She is still mainly on porridge but is able to eat other solid foods like bread, rice.

Pictures will follow and be updated at a later stage..
