zy is turning one next month. How time flies. Talking about time, I have been a lazy bone for more than a year. Staying at home, learning to paint and sew and trying to be a little more domestic.
Somehow, I kinda enjoy this kind of life. And I am starting to appreciate the time spent with zy. zy is growing real fast and sometimes, I am amazed by his brain power.
Now at 10 and half months, zy is already behaving like a young boy, reaching most of the supposed milestones except for crawling. He can:
-wave hello and goodbye,
-clap hands,
-cruise along the furnitures or walk with our support,
-express his happiness and displeasure,
-use and understand a few sign language like "more",
-pick up flashcards as requested (almost 100% accuracy),
-imitate hopping, dancing,
-show us where his head and tummy is,
-look for us by searching the house (knowing our individual favourite "hang out"),
-understand many words and objects like fruits (apple, banana, kiwi, pear), toys (ball, mickey mouse, doraemon, winnie pooh, froggie and many many more),
-play mini basketball,
-stand without support for 10 seconds and slightly more,
-call mama, baba indiscrimately,
-talk in his own baby language,
...................and the list goes on.
zy is really our darling boy. So looking forward to his 1st birthday (and hopefully, he can already walk!)
