Bela's Milestone at 20 months

It’s already 11:45 and I’m still wide awake. Just want to post Bela’s milestone at 20 months. Baka lang makalimutan ko:

• She now knows the different shapes – circle, square, rectangle, star, heart. She can point it to you if you ask her which is which.
• She can pronounce and distinguish the letters S (she pronounced it as “esss”), A, and K (she pronounced it as “Ka”) and the number three
• More words have been added to her vocabulary: art for heart, egg, ti for three, eyesss (with the emphasis on the “s”), up (she says this when she wants to go up our room already), ilk for milk. This is really a big relief for us. Some of you might remember I even posted about my worries on Bela’s talking skills in n@w because her Pedia recommended that we let her have a hearing test when she turns 2 kse sabi nga naming sa Pedia nya, kaunti pa lang words na alam nya. But now we are amazed at how quickly she can pick up the words that we introduce to her so this is just a big assurance for us na wala nga syang hearing problems.
• She knows the different parts of her body. She can point to you where her eyes, ears, nose, mouth and tongue is when you ask her.
• She nods by moving her head up and down when she wants to say Yes and moves her head left and right when she means No.
• She can do the action for the song “My toes, my knees, my shoulder, my head” and she can point her toes, knees, shoulder and head correctly.
• She just loves to sing. Her tatay bought her a DVD-oke of the different nursery rhymes together with a microphone and stand. And every time she wants it played, she will get the DVD from the DVD rack, give it to us so we can play it then grabs her microphone and then she starts to sing (although, most of her lyrics di pa namin maintindihan). Future Song Bird ata anak ko…hehehe

Well that’s it for now. Time to sleep para marami energy tomorrow. We’ll be watching the Sesame Street Concert tomorrow and I’m really excited for Bela.
