Kyle went 2 days without poop.  This morning, we were in the park egg hunting. He came up to me, and said 'I stink. I cannot sit'.  I laughed to death. He had a super full dirty diaper!

Kyle started nursery class this week. Today it's his first day staying in school by himself.  Even though it's only one hour, the teacher expected he might cry a lot because he wanted to be with him all the time the last few days.  But what a surprise, when I picked him up, I was told that he didn't cry at all, not even asking for me once.   He is such a lovely good boy.  The teacher said we still have to see if he is ok for the next few days. It is too early to say.   But I'm proud with my little boy!

 

 

I taught Kyle to say I love you.  Today is the first day he spoke these 3 words together. He looked so sweet when he said that. I am sure he doesn't understand what it means, but I still feel my heart melting. 

 

And we both love that he yells from his bed, 'HELLO, MAMA, HELLO, PAPAAAAAAA!' when he wakes up in the morning. This morning we were laughing so much in our bed. 

I changed his diaper this morning, and oh my god, his pee-pee has grown in triple size!  It was so swollen and red. Luckily it didn't hurt him at all.  He must have gotten the infection when papa brought him to play on the beach yesterday.

 

Took him to the pediatrian and it cost me $700! What an expensive swim in the sea.  He was also  measured and he's now 88.3 cm tall and weighs 13.4kg.

 

Have been so busy at work. Yesterday I missed bringing him to bed. Today, I just made it.  I wanted to throw up when I waited so long for the taxi from the office and there was such so much traffic. I guess it's the price to pay 'coz i want to be a full time working mom.

I went back fulltime for more than one week.  Very busy, still managed to come home before 7pm so that I still have time to play with Kyle for an hour before he sleeps. Kyle seems fine though, but I miss him very much during the day.

 

Kyle must be growing through a growth spurt. He slept so much for the past week. 2 hrs nap plus 12 hrs' night sleep. Crazy.

 

He is however still very picky with food.  Yesterday, he refused to eat much.  He spit out almost everything and said' meat, meat'. He didn't like the texture????  I was so moody and angry.  But today, Elizabeth said he ate a lot, the same lunch and dinner like yesterday! And he asked for rice at 10am and he ate the same banana bread that he spit out when I fed him.  So naughty!

 

He also starts to use 2 or 3 words together.  Very sweet, eg. mama sit, papa arbeit, mama play, Maisy ABCs...

 

Oh, we finally ordered a new bed and mattress. King size.  Hermann is very happy now. But I like our current bed so much!

 

 

Really can't help but brag again.  Just have to record this now for future reference.

Is it really not normal?  Kyle now almost reccognizes and names all letters A-Z, 1-12.  He can count from 1 - 10.  I am really proud that he is so smart, but whenever other moms show their suprises, I just don't know how to respond.  I believe he is just a bit faster in this ability, and when kids are 3 or 4 years old, who cares who starts to read first?
