Cheeky face

Cheeky faceEvangeline turns 21 mths old
Evangeline has turned 21mths old today. I can't imagine the day she turns 21 yrs old! It'll be a long journey but would be full of life experience.
At 21mths, she has became more ladylike and looking prettier with a character. She can combine a few words to make an understandable sentence. E.g: Daddy goes work! Watch Barney. I love you. You can tell that she is making a good effort in trying to speak out. She is also learning mandarin but the pronunciation is still not very good.
She is recovering from flu and cough. It's so difficult to make her eat medicine. She simply dislikes to eat medicine. We got to hold her down and kinda force the syrup into her mouth. Gosh....
Evangeline is every bit a woman behaviour. Play pretend: She will hold on the baby and pretend to feed her milk. Her posture is so heartwarming. Only girls will do such an act. If now it's a boy, you wouldn't think he will behave in such a manner.
Evangeline loves to look good and pretty too. She will sit still to allow me to comb her hair and tie her hair.
We love Evangeline so much. Nobody can replaces her. I just wanna see her daily and love her daily. I thank GOD for this wonderful gift. It's great to have Evangeline! She's our darling daughter....

Tom & Jerry
Evangeline was surprised to see Tom & Jerry came alive!
Last week was the 3rd term school hols and at Downtown East, there was "Tom & Jerry" event whereby children can meet and take pix with them. We happened to be there to meet Aunt Joey and let Evangeline meet up with Tom & Jerry which were familiar faces for her.
Evangeline got excited when she sees them in human size form. As the queue was very long, we didn't get a coupon to take pix with them. Instead, Daddy carried Evangeline and we took a few shots of Eve and them from afar.

18 mths MMR jab
Today, Evangeline took her last compulsory jab - Infanrix for DPT/DT & Polio vaccine at The Kid's Clinic as well as her 18mths development assessment.
At 18 mths:-
Growth: Weight @ 11kg (75%)
Height @ 79.4cm (50%) - I guess she got my genes for being petite in size!
As for physical examination:
1. Fixation on moving object: Right & Left eye - No problem
2. Fontanelles - Ok
3. Ears - Ok
4. Heart - Ok
5. Teeth - Ok
6. Muscle Tone - Ok
7. Lungs - Ok
8. Genitals - Ok
9. Posture - Ok
10. Abdomen - Ok
11. Skin - Ok ( recovered from mild ezcema!)
12. Gait - Ok
Personal Social
1. She can indicate what she wants without crying or whining by pointing, pulling and speaking. E.g She'll pull my hand and lead me to the stairs when she's tired and time for bed by saying: Let's go bed!
2. When mama is doing housework like washing toilet with a brush, sweeping the floor, etc - she tends to copy what mama does.
3. She has slight difficulty in holding a regular cup herself to drink water as she usually drink from a straw/ spout. (It's time to let her practice now!
Fine Motor-Adaptive
4. Evangeline has no problem picking up a small object like a raisin, using only the ends of his thumbs and index finger. She's always eating her star biscuits without any problem.
5. Evangeline will scribble on the paper when we give her crayons. However, we are still unsure if she's right-handed or left-handed.
6. At the clinic, Dr Tan gave her 2 blocks and instructed her to stack it up. She obediently did it with ease.
Language
7. Evangeline says more than just Papa & Mama. She could say many words and call me Mummy and her daddy when she was 12 - 13mths. She knows her cartoon friends like Care Bear, Winnie the PoohPooh, "Mimi Mouse" - i.e. Mickey Mouse, Hello Kitty, Elmo, Strawberry Shortcake. Animal friends like dog, puppy, cat, leopard, cheetah, elephant, lion, tiger, parrot, koala bear, bear, peacock, etc etc. Her fruits & vegetables like apple, kiwi, strawberry, orange, banana. Her games like ball, balloon, bubbles, etc. Her food like porridge, rice, bread, water, milk, fish, chicken.
8. Without coaching, pointing or helping, Evangeline can point to at least 2 parts of her body such as nose, eyes, ears, hands, legs & stomach when asked. In fact, she knows more of the detailed parts like eyebrow, eye lashes, belly button, armpit, elbow, knee, toes, neck, hair, tongue, teeth, etc.
9. Evangeline can combine more than 2 words like "let's go", "thank you", "walking", "painful" when hurt. She knows how to say "Dun want" when she doesn't want to do something. She can even sing songs like "Twinkle Twinkle Little Stars" - perfect tune and get most of the wordings right. "Old Macdonald's has a farm" - she will sing the chorus of e-ya, e-ya, o.
We have no problem with Evangeline's language development. She advanced well in this area. Evangeline could also say from No 1 - 10 correctly.
Gross Motor
10. Evangeline can stand alone, without having to hold on to something for 10sec or more (stand alone). In fact, she started walking independently at 14mths. The only bad habit she has now is tip-toe whenever she walks. Checked with Dr Tan, she said it's absolutely fine for beginners like her. They'll grow out of it, we just need to remind her constantly.
11. She walks well with good balance, rarely falls and does not sway from side to side.
12. As we are living in maisonette, she climbs up and down the stairs on her own. Of course, we taught her to hold on to the railing tight and be careful.
Evangeline is a brave gal and didn't cry when she took her jab. We gave her sweet to distract her attention and pain. As Dr Tan said they might develop fever, we fed her with paracetamol to avoid it. Thus far, she's good!!! :)

Marina Barrage
Posing for pix
Exploring and she was scared looking at the glass floor...
With her happy daddy
With a very happy gal, playing with all the water jets, half-naked!
Who cares??? "I'm having fun!"
Who cares??? "I'm having fun!"
We brought Evangeline to Marina Barrage on 21 Jun 09. She had much fun playing at the water playground and enjoyed the scenery. It was very impromptu and she was half-naked playing with the water jets and knee-length pool.
