18th Sept Happy Birthday Rhys!

Happy 2nd birthday Rhys! Sorry Yi Yi will compensate you with a big ang bao when i get well ok..

Today Ryann is as usual super active, climb up and down the sofa, my bed, tv console etc. Play with hubby's shoe again. Told him No , he still touch. Told him No and pull his hand away, he still touch. told him NO CANNOT, smack his hand, he still touch. NO and CANNOT so hard to understand meh? Last resort - pull him away. Then he got distracted by other things. This happen for at least 2 times. Repeated NO and CANNOT for N times. Last night Ryann was so naughty, he climb up my sofa, crawl to the side table grab my cup and splash ribena all over the place and on my sofa again!So naughty, i bath him immediately and after which i scolded him and he cried. And i pointed to the mess that he created and tell him not to do that. I don't know if he understand or not(Actually i doubt so.), but i really hope he does. Another thing which he had mastered was to make himself fall so that he can get out of the ride. Sometimes when he is on the winnie the pooh ride he will make a bit of noise wanting people to carry him, when ignored, he will let himself fall by the side and crawl out of the ride regardless of any pain he might experience. This boy really BTH him!

Since my fingers felt better today, i tried to do some flash cards with Ryann. I can no longer put Ryann on the playmat and expect him to stay still to see me flash those cards to him. He start to crawl away and climb my sofa or play with remote control again. Thus i put him on his prince chair and started flashing. Got his attention most of the time. Then i play memory game. I show him a card and said this is grapes. Then i took out another different fruit and ask him to show me which one is grapes. Initially, he just look at me and he started looking right and left at the 2 cards and he picked the correct one for me! After which i flashed the set of cards one more time, this time round i introduced another fruit to him and use the same method on him, amazingly he picked the right one too. Even when i introduced both the fruit and i ask him to pick one of it, he manage to take the right one as well. I hope it is not plain coincidence anyway coincidence don't happen so many times right?

Enrichment classes have been in my mind for quite a while. Finally decided to go ahead but bishan class on weekend is full thus i might consider Trio (also known as little neuro tree) newly set up centre at hougang which is near serangoon JC. Hopefully Ryann will benefit from there.
