Updates on Adric

Woah, it's been almost a month since my last post... been busy, lots happened - some good, some not so good... but since I told myself I will only post good happy memories on this blog, I will not dwell on the not too happy... so here's some happy updates on Adric..

Adric did not win the PS Baby star contest, but we realized that he was selected top 30 finalists out of 500+ babies.. that's top 6%! haha... so it's considered a happy event! Adric baby, well done! You are doing a great job growing into a charming and cheerful little boy... you bring so much joy to everyone... everybody loves you!

Adric is starting to show some of his character, he is active, determined, playful and loves interacting with people! Last weekend, during Shichida class, Adric got bored in class (as he always does, he is the only baby in class who walks around the classroom the most, and refuse to sit on his chair for more than 5 mins), so he started playing peek-a-boo with the teacher, while she was conducting the class! He stood behind the table, and poped his head out and smiled at the teacher... the teacher couldnt help but started laughing.. so cute..

Here are some pictures of Adric interacting with the panda mascots at River Safari... he loves them! We couldnt get a good shot of Adric cos he was too busy playing and touching the 'pandas'.. hee

We also started letting Adric eat by himself - he loves it.. and he is quite good at it.. at 14 months, he can already eat quite comfortably with a spoon.. getting about 70% of the food into his mouth.. the other 30% lands on the floor or on himself.. some land on mummy too! hee

The bowl in the photo is an amazing invention - it has a non slip base, and a curved interior, very good for learning to eat with a spoon! We bought it at Mothercare - cannot really remember the brand now.. another sign of my deteriorating memory.. hee 



Last week, I had my first significant Awww moment with Adric... I was giving him his favourite biscuit as an after dinner snack - he loves the biscuit so much that he would cry like it's the end of the world when u take it away from him... So, after he ate some of the biscuits, I told him, 'Adric, this is the last one ok?' and I closed the lid of the biscuit bottle. So he took the last biscuit, looked at it, ate half of it, and guess what he did? He fed the other half to me! He was willing to share his last favourite biscuit with his beloved mummy! *Heart melt*
