Progress Report 2009 (1st Term)

Mummy: The first school term has come to an end. I received a progress report for Schuyler too. On the very first page, indicating the particulars with a small thumbprint, so small and cute. But can't see the fine details of the print as I think the print is not those meant for thumbprint.

Washing Clothes

Mummy: I was busy with some washing at the kitchen. Then I spotted Schuyler demostrating on how I usually wash clothes. I asked him to demo again so I can take photos of the actions. Cute isn't it?

Me in school uniform

Mummy: Wanted to take photos for Schuyler on his first day of school but forgot. And finally I remembered to take it today. It's quite cute to see such a small boy wearing school uniform. And recently whenever I told Schuyler "take photo", he will try to "cheese" with "V" sign. End up I couldn't see his eyes opening.

Balloon

Mummy: Initially I took these photos wanting to show how big his tummy is. Looks pregnant but end up the focus is on the balloon, he bite on the balloon and it burst.

Bubble fun

Mummy: Schuyler enjoys playing with bubbles. Chloe was blowing the bubbles and Schuyler was busy catching the bubbles.

Barney & Elmo

Mummy: I believed childcare do allow Schuyler to watch Barney and Elmo shows.. as he recognize Barney and Elmo. Not only that, he also recognize cars and he will say "vroom vroom"... I showed him the toyrus booklet and asked him to point out Barney, Elmo and cars to me. He can do it.

Words

Mummy: Schuyler can called out to "Daddy" and "姐姐". But he just don't call "mama" :(

Smile

Mummy: Always had a hard time asking Schuyler to look at the camera and smile. Finally, he's in the mood today.

Very bad tempered

Mummy: Schuyler is very bad tempered... I can foresee he's becoming like his own daddy.
When I say/scold him and he is unhappy, he will lie down flat on his stomach on the floor and cry. He will refused to stand/sit up until I really go and carry him up. How to educate him??

No more

Mummy: Schuyler blurted out "no more"...

Quit Pacifier

Mummy: I was amazed by how Schuyler managed to quit his habit of "eating" pacifier.
I went to ask his Teachers at the childcare to find out how they manage to do it. End up they ask me about it. And the story goes....

Long ago I attached a clip to the pacifier so that I can attached the pacifier to his clothing. Recently he have the habit of pulling the clip when he know that it's attached to his clothing so I might as well remove the clip. After I remove the clip, Schuyler don't recognize it as his pacifier so he refused to have his pacifier. And this is how he quit!! Amazing right? It took less than 1 day :P
