<\/a>\n~ Weight : 10.3kg (2 weeks ago)
\n~ Height : 83cm (is it possible that she keeps gaining weight but not height?)<\/p>\n
Dexterity<\/u>
\n~ She likes to drink from a cup instead of a sippy cup, and if she pays attention to what she’s doing, there won’t be any spillage.
\n~ She likes feeding herself with a fork and doing very well. Still need some assistance when she uses a spoon<\/p>\n
Emotions and character<\/u><\/p>\n
I start to see her displaying some ‘Terrible Two’ characters. She’s also doing lots of ‘pretend’ play nowadays Pretending to be mummy carrying a baby<\/span><\/p>\n She sometimes have emotional tussles with herself, and have conversation like this with herself Logical Thinking<\/u> Language<\/u>
\n~ She never used to walk too far away from me when we’re out. Now, when she insists that she wants to leave or go somewhere else, and I tell her to wait for a while, she walks away mumbling, “Zara want go home (or wherever)”<\/span>. And without looking back, she walks straight on.
\n~ She cries and shouts when she doesn’t get her way (but I totally ignore that)<\/p>\n
\n~ She has conversation to herself and her soft toys, something that goes like that,
\n“You want milk?”
\n“Don’t want.”
\n“You want cheese?”
\n“Want”
\n“Here, cheese. Take.”<\/span>
\n~ She dresses up and pretends to be a queen, a cowboy, or even an animal
\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\n*reaches her hands out to me* “Mummy hug hug Zara”
\n<\/span>*put her hands down* “Don’t want.”<\/span>
\n*reaches her hands out to Tuyam* “Kakak hug hug Zara”
\n<\/span>*put her hands down* “I don’t want. I don’t want.”
\n<\/span>*reaches her hands out to me again* “Mummy, mummy, carry you (me)”.
\n<\/span>*put her hands down* “I don’t want. I don’t want anybody”<\/span> *starts making crying sound*<\/p>\n
\nShe’s able to think logically,
\n~ when we asked her if she can fly, she will reply, “Cannot, because Zara don’t have wings”.
\n<\/span>~ she knows, “Zara’s family got Daddy, mummy and Zara.”
\n<\/span>~ she knows she’s still small and can only do certain things, e.g. “Zara now small jiejie, cannot play with scissors. When Zara big jiejie, Zara can cut cut with scissors”<\/span><\/p>\n
\n~ She’s talking non-stop, and picking up new words all the time. Some of her pronunciation is still off (e.g. In-doh-nee-sah<\/span> for Indonesia; Taffik yike<\/span> for Traffic Light), and we sometimes have a tough time trying to figure out what she’s saying, but when we do, we can always see the smile on her face, that she finally made us understand.
\n~ She loves books and picks up lots of new words from books. She can spend a lot of time flipping through books, and sometimes reading to herself (retelling the story in her own words).<\/p>\n
