Gabriel's Developmental Progress

Today, Gabriel is 2 year 1 month old. This post is written on his developmental progress.

Height - 83cm

Weight - 12kg

Language - Gabriel comes pretty slow in talking, and nope, no sentence yet! His mini vocabulary consist : daddy, mummy, baby, wah ma, yiyi, koko, meimei, kaikai, car, carkey, door, go, out, eat, dog, cow, mau (cat), hou (hot), cool, clock, no, more, nomore, moon,me, meat, star, nice, please, peach, pear, bread, ball, bubble, bee, book, toot-toot (train), teeth, gurt-gurt (yogurt),tea...and many more of his own kiddy words!! Recently we notice he is saying more words and is more keen to talk...

Motor Skill - His physical development is more advance than his linguistic intellectual. He is a very brave and confident child and not afraid of falling. His limbs/eye co-ordination is good. He can eat by himself and hold fork & spoon pretty well. He tends to use more left hand than the right - we will monitor this...

Understanding - He understands far more things than he can say. He can point to his body part to my demand but do not say any of them. He understand instructions, and most importantly, he understand his boundary and recognise the power of authority (especially from his daddy) -of course he is continually testing his limit from time to time which drive us mad!

Likes - food (Gabriel ENJOYS FOOD A LOT!!), car, ball, penguin, bubble, bath.....daddy is his all-time favourite play mate and mummy his full-time on-call-maid!!

Dislikes - shower running over his face, mummy shouting and daddy angry.....

Favourite book - Not Now Bernard, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, You are All My Favourite, Guess How Much I love You, Dear Zoo, Bible Favourite Story (with the goggle eye), Good Morning Engine....and many more - I am glad he like books, hope this continue!

Activities - nursery, art, gym, music, swim, play in the park, shopping at Kew retail with mummy, dancing at home with mummy, playing at home with mummy....and DISTURBING mummy!!

Gabriel, my sweetheart....he is getting more cute and fun to play and be with. I am a very lucky mother to stay home to look after my child (albeit lack of domestic help!!!). I truly appreciate the chance to watch Gabriel's developmental progress at every stages. I love the close knitted bond we build. I enjoy watching my son and hubby - my new hobby now is to watch them and spent time together laughing.
