Julian at 29 Months

Julian turns 29 months old today.

On the talking front, he's progressing but still isn't talking in full sentences. He's now better at talking over the phone instead of shying away when he hears someone talking at the other end.

His latest pre-occupation while on the road is spotting trucks, buses, or vans, and saying e.g. "truck, round!" (with hand gestures), prompting us to sing "The wheels on the truck go round and round..." *can be tiring*...

He's now interested in the computer *sweats*! Just like how he used to be glued to the TV, we sense that the computer is starting to be one of his staple entertainment *got to remember to keep this in check*.

Anyway, although he has yet to recite his ABCs in sequence, we discovered that he actually recognises all the 26 letters of the alphabet, all thanks to his punching away at the keyboard. He now also knows the numbers 1 to 20 (but he still says 13 as "three-teen" and 15 as "five-teen"). He pronounces 11 and 12 correctly, though.

For more than a month now, Julian readily wants to go to bed at night. With some prompting from us, he'd turn the TV off, wish Mummy or Daddy "goodnight" (depending on who's minding Justin), run off to the room onto the bed, pop his pacifier into his mouth, and after some "minor" rolling-around (and some shoulder and bum patting), doze off to sleep. It all takes an average of 15-20 minutes.
