Angie & Bart's Blog: Justin at 13 Months

Sunday, August 29, 2010

Justin turned 13 months on 25 August 2010. His check-ups are now quarterly so there's no visit to the clinic this month.

Here are his updates:

He's up to 4oz of milk per feed now.
His 7th tooth has erupted at the bottom.
He is walking 'fully' and no longer reverts to crawling to get around. Crawling is now for play only :-)
His night bedtime has moved from between 8.50-9.10 previously to about 9.20-9.30 now.
He says "tak" when we scan the entry card to our apartment, imitating daddy who says "tit-tit" for Julian's benefit (so we don't have to wind down the window!)
He insists on joining daddy and Julian for their daily evening walk when we pick them up from the baby sitter's.
He knows he has to move back from the TV when we 'blank' the screen if he gets too close.
He likes watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and would swing his hands and smile during the final song. He would shake his bum, too, if he's standing :-)
When Julian is getting attention from us, he would sometimes 'cry' to vie for our attention.
He can manoeuver the toy horse like a pro.
He has learnt to drink from a straw!
He is able to 'communicate' his wants by stretching his arms out in a particular direction while pointing towards what he wants.
He would try to copy big brother Julian's actions e.g. climb the ladder in Ah Kong's house, poke the cupboard door with a magic colour... *slap head*
He likes to play rough and tumble with Julian and can sometimes initiate the game.
Able to play on a swing and slide.
