My little stubborn Mooooo

Time to keep some records on my little cow, she is done with all her necessary injection and MMR being the most scary one. At the age of 21 month old, she finally can call me Marmee and her daddy... dad dee... She knows how to say, car car, dog, and bark like a dog, woooo woooo wooo... and not bark bark... she love to say DUCK and bear bear...

She no longer likes fruits... she refuse to take her favourite banana (she call it nana) and she only occasionally eat avocado... She still dislike milk but not as much as her vitamin syrup... its screaming session every feed. She still do NICE with her index finger wriggled like a worm. She loves to kiss all the toy animals... her kissing has a sound (made with the tongue) she does not know how to kiss with sound, not sure where she get the idea from, she made the sound with her tongue.

She loves to play cooking game... she will cook for her toys and feed them... sometimes I mimic her with the toy by shaking the head and refuse to eat! She will scream! Such a bully... she can refuse to eat but her toy cannot.


And she loves dogs! My damm smart colleague told her she can "armmm" <eat> the dog and she really do the "armmm" action on the big Goldie! We bought her the small dog (rio) from the mac happy meal and I just jokingly placed the dog in her cooking pot and ask if that can be cooked? She say yerm... meaning YES! But when I placed the rio bird in it, she took it out and shake her head! OMG! I immediately correct her by asking her, how can u eat the gou gou? U want to eat the dog (gou gou)? Then she no longer do that now.


She is still not sleeping through the night!... She used to be able to sleep through at about 1 year old but after a while she will wake up to ask for water... lately she wake up screaming and I suspect its due to the pacifier... She has a damm razoring teeth... We got her a set of new pacifier and within month, she bite it till it breaks! We refused to change the pacifier and she is using the broken one... we tried to get her to bite the handkerchief but it din work out. These few nights she keep screaming for the pacifier and because she has an ulcer, the broken pacifier rub the ulcer while she is biting it... This send her screaming off and I took the pacifier away, she scream even more! This morning I cut off the rubber part and ask her to throw away... Now her TuTu is one without the rubbery part... shall see how she adapt to it.


She started attending GUG for a term already and she made 2 friends in the class which make them the 3 marketeers! They are very "movable" in class... Her 2 friends can speak well but Charlotte still not very good with her speech.  I din see much impact from the GUG class... maybe its not immediate result... nonetheless, I am going to stop her class from next term onwards as we are bringing her to Childcare...We are going to try out if she can cope with CC as this might be a better option than letting her stay at home doing nothing.

Charlotte is going for the kids' race this coming Sunday and I was looking through her past photo, my little cow has really grown up a lot and more hair too! hahhahah... She can be a sweetie when she call Marmee... but a monster when she start screaming her head off.

I have tried "discipline" methods which I read from the web such as cool down period and "naughty corner" but all these din stay well... She can really get on my nerves at times... Yesterday incident was a trauma one and I totally forget what I read from the book. The book say when a parent lose control, they are showing the child how to lose control as well... But when the anger comes to your head, you just tend to forget everything... Charlotte was throwing her temper and refuse to wear her clothes after bath... from the minute she step out of the bath room she is screaming non stop. Ended up locking her in the room for a minute or so... send her hugging me like a koala and fall asleep after that... Children being children... they woke up forgetting all about the whole incident.

I wonder if she will start screaming like this when we leave her at the CC... but I am quite determine to make her go through CC this time round.. But well... a lot will still depends on how well she can cope with it... But I really hope she can get used to CC... lots of investment has been pump in!
