Jannah : 1 month short to being a year old!

Latest stats
Weight : 8.5kgs
Height : 72cm

She had a growth spurt last month. Mana tak nya, she was 67cm.. and now she's already 72cm. 5cm tu naik. And now she looks so tall already. In fact she's almost as tall as Dida, her 2 yr old cousin. Tapi ye la, Dida tu mmg kemetot so tak bole nak kata la jugak kan.

She's got her 2 bottom teeth and 1 half gigi atas depan now. But I think she's teething again coz she forever wants to bite my fingers. She specifically loves to do this while going to sleep. Bebudak lain hisap jari la, minum susu la.. Jannah gigit jari Mommy. Bole? Tsk..

Most important achievement for her this month is walking. My baby girl is already a walker. She started walking about 2 weeks ago. And has now even mastered walking very fast. I just love to play catch with her. Gila best dengar her shrieks of laughter.

Anyway.. her milestones to date :

• Plays patty-cake and peek-a-boo : oh, she loves peek-a-boo. she would normally take the duvet and put it over her head and on cue when we say "peek-a-boo" she'll pull the duvet down. Her patty cake is more like a high five. Hehe..

• Stands alone for a couple of seconds : checked a few months back already

• Cruises : also checked a few months back

• Understands "no" and simple instructions : she understands but whether she will follow or not is a totally different matter all together. Haha!

• Puts objects into a container : yes, and put ball in hoop. and put things back on the table. she also knows how to "play" with cars / trains / lorries.

• Stoops from standing position : check, she can squat too now. oh, she also loves to tonggeng herself.

• Indicates wants with gestures : yup! normally with non stop jabbering too. until we give her what she wants.

• Says "mama" and "dada" to the correct parent : this is one thing she hasn't said yet. hmm.. i wonder why? she can say "nak", "dah", "jom", "nyum-nyum". I think this one is my fault. I have not spent enough time with her to talk and point at stuff. Need to start doing this.

I just love taking pictures of her sleeping. Heh..
