Lil Notti Nigel Again

Lil Notti Nigel calling me Mum Mum (I think). He has started to get really talkative now. He can say Hello, Hi and Papa too. He can sit up by himself, Butt Walk a bit and Push himself up. Really Dangerous now. But he still refuse to crawl ! SighS. Good and Bad thing... At least no need to worry about him hurting his knee caps.

Flash Cards and A Road Trip to KL

I went to a talk in KL on the 223/3 with Shawn, my Sis and Her Hubby. It's a talk by Glenn Doman's son on Childhood education. It's the first time in a long long time that I actually went overseas ! Pretty excited. It was a fruitful trip overall. Really learn quite a lot about swimming, exercising and educating my Boy.

I have been teaching Nigel with DIY Flash Cards for 2 months now. Using a bit of Nero Tree Method with Glenn Doman Way. His progress is pretty amazing. He can really tell which is which just after one try. But how much does he understand ?
So I came up with a plan. I made some small portable flash cards. I showed it to Nigel first, then the physical object. He love snacks. So I decided to start with that first. Apparently he understands. I put a few cards on the floor and ask him what he wants. He choose snacks and kept choosing it !! After a while, He choose Pacifiers and Dou Dou !! And he went to sleep ! Wow !! The next day, he choose snack again and Papa. So Papa gave Nigel some snacks to eat! This will really help a lot in terms of communication. Slowly I will teach him more. I will add in Water, Milk, NTUC, Grandma and Grandpa. More Day to Day items for this portable flash cards.

I'm 10 months old !

Camera Loves me ! I look sooo Handsome !

Yoz !

Splash Splash !

I love my Little Cousin cum Sister

Chicken Backside Face !!

Nigel is 10 month old. Time really flies. In another 2 months he will be BiG 1 ! I'm planning his birthday party already. Will be on 08 May at my Little Uncle's place.

He still only has one tooth.. Really wonder when the rest is coming. It's been more than a month since !! He refusing to crawl still. TOo lazy. He just points or wails and the stuff will fly to him !! But now he's trying to move with his butt.. Butt Walk. Hmmz.. He love making Faces, the most infamous is the Chicken Backside Face ( Grandma Monica name it).

He been going to Little Neuro Tree for lessons everyday Friday. So far so good. I'm using Flash Cards to teach him too. I have Flash Cards from Baby Einstein and made my own Flash cards using White Paper and red Markers. It's really tiring, imagine drawing and colouring Circles, words and numbers. I have done 1 to 10, expressions, body parts and some common items, more than 70 pcs. I can't imagine when I do 100s. SobS. But when I see Nigel learning and making progress. It's all worthwhile ! He can recongise his own Name! I'm thinking of using it as a tool for him to communicate with us since he can recongise quite a number of words already. But I haven't totally figured out how yet.

In the meantime, Lil Nigel, Grow up strong, healthy and Most Important, Be Happy Always ! Everyone Loves U !
