Just some updates on Caity:
*I found out last week that she has two new molars growing, one on each sides at the lower part of her mouth. She has now a total of 8 teeth!
*She’s got the Sesame Street alphabets and numbers flashcards which she refers to as “two”. Two being the easiest word she can pronounce when we start to count off. She also calls her shoes “two”. Shoes, two. They almost sound the same sans the s. hehe
More words she can say:
Nose – noe
Eyes = eye
Ears = ea
Banana = nana
Apple = pol
Barney = baaa
Flower = fwawa
Water = kaka (how did it become kaka?)
and a lot more…
*Last December, she was fond of moving her head from side to side when she means no and lately she’s doing the action with a string of na, na, na… which sometimes sounds like na-a or ne.
*A couple of weeks ago she also learned how to nod her head when she means yes.
*She sends me flying to the moon with happiness everytime she kisses me on the cheek!!!
*Though she calls all men, papa and women, mama, she knows who auntie or uncle is or who papa or mommy is. Like when you tell her, “kiss auntie” or “give this to mommy” she knows who to go to and do what she’s asked to do.
Looking so serious Caity? What is it you’re watching anyway?
Clapping along with Barney and friends…
Beaming with her happy smile! Watching Barney is so much fun!
Watching Barney is already part of Caity’s day. She loves to dance and sing along with them. Some of her favorites are the Clapping Song, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, If You’re Happy and You Know It, Music is for Everyone and I Love You.
Guess what? it’s best to capture precious moments with videos. They say a picture says a thousand words, but a video…. millions! LOL! Now you know why we have lots of Caity’s videos. Also recently I’ve been taking videos almost every day to show to family/relatives and friends around the world, most especially to her grandparents in the Philippines who are constantly asking about her and her dad who’s away on a business trip who misses her very much.
Come with me!
- a sunny Sunday afternoon with her grandma, Ori and me after a nice lunch prepared by mam.
Pa-cute - in her favorite spot, playing with the feeding bottle with water inside. I’m breastfeeding Caity so it was cute seeing her drinking from the bottle which she normally vehemently refuses to drink milk from. I guess it’s alright for her to drink water from there BUT NOT MILK! She just wants from me!
What Caity usually does to keep herself busy, hanging around the two sofa chairs. Such risky acts I should say especially when she crosses from one chair to another and when she sits in between (on the armrest of both chairs). My heart would skip a beat each time! But she does it with so much ease and confidence.
I’m guessing she’s teething coz she’s biting on her toys and books (as seen on the video) a lot lately. But she’s not cranky at all. She even lets me brush her teeth.
Video taken today, October 4, 2008 few hours before her grandma came to take her out.
Somebody can’t get over the fact that Caity is finally walking. I’ve been bugged to take videos of Caity. Last night, the little girl seemed to be having fun walking around the room on her own while her dad was busy installing programs. We didn’t even have to coax her to walk! Cool! It was amusing to watch her coz she sometimes lose balance but she manages to walk on like a drunk! Anyway, by popular demand, here’s a video of Caity walking:
