Amadeus' Milestones as at 13th Month

Time flies, Amadeus is now 13th mth old and no longer a baby. There have been moments of great joy, as well as frustrating ones, to both hb and I as we watch him grow.... Though he might be a bit slow in his motor skills but we still love him very very much. I believe he inherits the lazy genes from me as he is surely one lazy boy...hahaha...Unlike other toddlers his age, he will refuse to stand up and walk with our support (he knows how to walk with support) or use the walker to walk...So, I guess we just have to let him be and one fine day, when he is ready, he will walk, like how he suddenly wants to hold his own milk bottle :)

Amadeus' milestones:
1) He finally wants to hold his own milk bottle when he is abt 1 yr old.

2) He will take/spit out his pacifier the moment he sees his milk bottle, or when we said to him: drink milk milk or drink water (after drinking, he will promptly put back his pacifier. He is a pacifier addict...hee hee) or when he sees his lunch or dinner.

3) He will give me a smiley face when he knows that I'm angry wif him or when I give him a stern look. Somehow he knows tat I will forgive him if he does that.

4) He loves to hug us tightly and buried his face close to ours or on our chest. Sometimes he will pat us (might be beating us, who knows) too on our back when we carry him.

5) He is able to wave bye bye and say the word (He will only do it when he feels like it).

6) The limited vocab tat he knows: PaPa, MaMa, Mum Mum, Ah Ma, Auntie, Baby, Hi & Bye Bye.

7) He understands what is "No" and sometimes will obey us when we tell him "No" to doing certain things.

8) He is also able to understand some simple instructions, like "stand up" or "sit down".

9) He is able to climb onto his bed and the sofa but does not know the correct way of getting down.

Baobei, Happy 13th mth! Stay healthy & cheerful always :)
