Big Girl


Nadia is 2 years old and 17 days. She can count 1 to 10, memories alphabets, sings most of the children songs fluently, asking for help, some sign languages, name most of the zoo animals and ocean's animals, has imagination of her daddy flies the airplane, LOVES, literally loves the Wheels on the bus songs and changes the words into something she loves, like the wheels on daddy's car go round and round, or wheels on the train, etc, eating with spoons, mastered all the basic puzzles, name all the shapes, knows some colors like yellow-blue-purple-pink-red, some Indonesian words (not much, but enough), she loves teasing and laugh or being a clown so we would laugh. She would remind us of what she likes.. like :"Remember daddy, the choo choo train and tickets, or the submarine, diver, octopus, etc." Very very very friendly girl. Today, we had a visitor, a guy who installs the gas pipe to convert our fireplace to the gas fireplace, she would just talks to him, telling stories, very very clear words. Her favorite movies are Little Einstein, Dora the Explorer, Wallace and Gromit, Polar Express, and most of all : Rolie Polie Olie. She loves playing with jigsaw puzzles and animal stringing, also cutting the fruit with knife (pretending play). Her favorite drink is SODA!!!! Her favorite food is rice and eggs. She loves hugging and being hugged, do her hair, brushes her teeth and flossing.
She is a happy go lucky girl. We are so proud of her.

Downside of Nadia : Mommy has been working on the potty training, she has been pooping in the big potty, but talking about peeing, it's very hard for her to get it that she has to pee in the potty, otherwise her underwear (yes, mommy tried to put her on the big girl training pants underwear) will get wet. She would peed in her underwear, but at the same time, she doesn't want to wear real diaper. After a while mom got tired of washing her wet underwear and put her on the diaper, she would say : No, Mommy, no diaper. Let's see what happens in the future. Here in this picture, Nadia is wearing big girl underwear, mommy tried to put dress on her so she won't change her clothes everytime (no wet pants, please). This is her favorite spot drinking from her straw bottle, enjoying the view outside and watching Rolie Polie Olie.
