Aidan is 2!

Things that I will want to remember my dear love Aidan when he's at 2 :

1) He didn't really talk except for the 20 something early vocabs that he knew like papa, Naeh, atok, dog n such until he's like 14month where his vocab library growth spurt uncontrollably. Just before 2, he speaks like when Nael was a 3+ albeit some are pelat like

"kaki aidan ejuk, nak akai okin"
"aidan nak jalan, egi JJ (as in Jaya Jusco) ... yayyyy!!"
loves to ask "atok ana (mana)?, wan ana?, papa ana?, Naeh ana?, ummi ana?" and the list goes on.
and when he quarrells with his big brother, he will end it with "abg Naeh kedekot!!!" LOL!!

Another thing, he knows his full name when being ask "what is your name?"
He will say it in jest "Zul *pause 2 sec* Aidan *pause 2 sec* NA-EZ" NA-EZ is said with tounge in between your teeth


2) Knows his body part really well both in Eng and BM and when we reverse it, he knows them too. Ex: Rather than we ask the body part and ask him to point, we also ask him, this body part is call...?
can recite 1-10 in Eng and some random alphabets.


3) You know they are a few types of toddler's kissing..some will smooch with open mouth or purse lips but Aidan is the muncung type, like a fish. Panjang betul muncung dia, boleh sangkut hanger..hehehe..but he's just too cute not to kiss him that way.


4) He has one kind of jiggy that is so cute, like a dancing robot but with faster motion.


5) He can eat on his own with fork and spoon, drink from cup/mug on his own, he can even put on shorts or long pants on his own. I gave 2 thumbs up for his motor skill.


6) He loves to scribble too and too bad, our walls and bedsheet have his art murals on them but it's containble as we keep on encouraging him to write on kiddies white board that Nael now has to share it with Aidan.


7) He loves reading..oh boy! As we flip pages, he loves asking " Nie apa? nie apa? nie apa X 1000 times" Penat Ummi nak layan and worse he wants the same attention that I'm giving to Nael during Nael's reading session with me.


8) He loves loves lego..this is only time I can find peace in the room when he's with his lego. So so quiet, he will produce cakes with a candle on it, a robot he calls Tranz-OH-Mer and a gun to bang a bang :)


9) He still very clingy to me as I'm still nursing him and scared of crowds but not in shopping malls, not that extrovert just like the big brother. I have no issues with that as long as they behave in public.


10) He loves making faces, which makes us so geram sebab teramat comel especially with his comical expressions.






Our dearest Zul Aidan Naez,

Happy 2nd Birthday Sayang! You have been with us for 2 great years and we hope Allah s.w.t will grants us many more years to come for us to shower you, our little one with plenty of love and wonderful memories. May you become anak yang soleh, healthy and happy boy. We love you to bits and we shall miss your toddler cheeky smile and funny face that you have entice us this long. Happy Birthday, Aidan!

From your Ummi, Papa and Abang Naeh :)

Big Kid vs Small Kid

When one obese kid 63kg in Standard 6 accidentally ran over a 9kg toddler and this small kid was flung onto the hard tarmac and landed on his left abdomen which in turn caused his mid rift left clavicle bone cracked fracture!


That happened to Aidan on last 5th April 2009. My poor boy kept on crying until he felt asleep and that night his movement was limited. Since we did not see any bruises, we treated it as hemmmm " sakit badan sebab jatuh" . After 3 days, we saw a swollen collar bone and for that past 5 days (since the fall), he has been whiny but quite tolerable on our side and we brushed it off and assumed that he was on recovering journey. Little did we know that his clavicle bone is at the tip of broken :( until my mak summoned me on Friday morning right after I settled myself in the office. Ohh man..panic I was, I remember I was puffing and huffing, driving like a mad woman to mak's house, pickup Aidan and straight to DSH. Saw his paed, took his X ray, again saw his paed and he sent us to Orthopedic Surgeon and Trauma Surgeon huhuhu..We were told that the swollen was due to the new bone forming on top of the current one. Since he's young, his new bone will completely reformed in 3 weeks. Therefore, no rough playing in the meantime. Syukur sesangat!


This boy of mine is now recuperating and his next appointment is this Saturday. By the look of it, he is recovering well.





Lesson learnt : kalau anak dah nangis bawak sajalah pergi hospital, no need to wait and see, wait and see :P. That's the difference between 1st anak and 2nd anak, aye?

Aidan - 18 mths old

Wrote this on 4th of March
============================

Last 14th Feb 2009, marked 18 mths of Aidan life journey with us.

What can he do so far...

1) Very much independent on his motoring skill, pincer skill...he can stack up wooden cubes up till 5 blocks, he can pull together his lego pieces which I think quite amazing, he does skecthes on paper when he can get hold of pencils or crayons, he insists to eat on his own with spoon/fork, he tries to take off his shirt/pants and even after shower, he'll get his towel and dry up his dicky..very very cute we thought. He even tries to put on his bajus and shorts and even his brother's undies! *roll eyes*


"My cheeky boy! Mind the mess"


2) F & B - he's very enthusiast about food, very adventurous, wanting to taste every single thing even tissue :P Not much a problem on that department, his favourite is nasi lemak with sambal..mesti merah2 baru nak bukak mulut :) and nasi goreng. He likes junk food too but I think I have done quite a good job distracting him from the junkies, he eats vege!!! yay!! even green vege like timun.. double yay!! On the beverages side, hemmm..he's more favor of plain water which is good and bad. Bad, because, he doesn't drink formula only mommy's milk, that is he'll get his dosage when Ummi's home from work. Been trying to get him drink fresh milk or even Milo (with fresh milk) for 6 mths , still unsuccessful! So, as his paed says, he still needs to take 50% milk...grrrr..worse still he eats little of dairy food. Try..we will...

3) Seperation anxiety - still!!..very much clingy when I'm home and when I'm away..clingy with the maid which is NOT good. Anyway, I'm very sure he will get pass of this.

4) Vocab - hemmm still not much from him except for the common words : papa, mama, abang, kakak, ball, car, doggg, mamam (doesn't count eh)

5) Favourite toys are off course whatever his brother plays. They will play together until one of them cries. Nael will cry when Aidan ketuk kepala abang with anything he can get hold off or Aidan cries when the abang insists in playing his way...boys!! It's scary to watch them play..very very rough.

One thing I would want to remember is the way he greets me at the door when I'm home from work. He squels with joy and clumsily walk to the room, leaving me behind (still at the door) and climbs onto the bed and lie down on his fav bear pillow, ready to have his n*n*n time ..heheh...
