Development update: 16 months

The main reason why I started this blog is to track the growth development of Joshton. Babies grow up so fast, from cradle to running toddlers before you know it...this blog is a chronicle which will help me relive the memories of his growing up years.

At 16 months:

Height = 82cm

Weight = 11kg

Teeth: It's a real challenge to trick him to open his mouth wide, so I could only do a quick count when he's laughing heartily. He seems to have 17-18 teeth, but at his age he should have just 16 teeth.

Speech: He always repeat the last word of our sentences, if it's not more than 2 syllables. As for linking 2 words together, I only heard him say "go away" (when I scream at my dog to stay away from Josh) and "throw away".

Diet: Omigosh this little fellow is one fussy guy! Always rejects the nice, healthy (but bland) food that mummy spent lots of effort and love to cook. He will take one mouthful n spit it out if it's not salty or tasty enough for his fussy tastebuds. He's not into porridge or rice too, which is a headache. So till now he is still mainly on milk feeds. Frens & family have commented that he looks much thinner, but I do not want him to cultivate bad eating habits and just eat saltish or sugary food. Hopefully he will start accepting the healthier stuff.
