Since we started weaning Julian about a month ago, he's developed an addiction for his pacifier ('tot-tot' in his language). Previously he would only take it when he wanted to sleep (when mummy's not around). But now he would ask for it even when he's not sleepy. We try to discourage it as much as possible by distracting him with other things. But we also realise this is probably his 'replacement' attachment, so sometimes we give in.
Another improvement is Julian now travels in his car seat willingly and without any fuss. Right up to Chinese New Year, he was still relunctant to sit in his car seat when the three of us were travelling together. On several occasions, we forced him in. Then mummy would sit in front and leave him alone at the back. We found that he would only fuss and insist on being taken out when Mummy sat at the back with him. Since 5 February 2009 we noticed that he no longer objects to being put in his seat and is in fact very cooperative :-)
He's still practising his jumps. There's improvement. In fact he jumps on the bed, lifting both feet off the surface. But he's not confident nor steady enough to do the same on hard surfaces just yet. (He practised walking the same way - on the bed!)

Happy 21 months old!
He can grasp the color pencil well.
