Mei Mei can walk!!! At 16 months exactly! And so, we captured this beautiful snapshot of her, standing by our door. The old generation was saying, little babies should start to walk at the age of 12-13 month. If it passes, the next lucky month will be 16th month. Well, whether it's plain coincidence or really the truth, Mei did start walking at the age of 16 months. Not stable yet of course, but it's a good start! Somehow, we just feel that Mei Mei has grown up by this picture. She has grown from a tiny pea to now, looks like a fine young lady to us, whom knows how throw tantrums, babbles to herself & giggles very loudly.
Being just nosey or independent; but I attempted to dry myself with towel every after bath. I will tell Mom, "Mommy, I help you dry my body..." As I am not good at expressing myself yet, what I meant should be - I wanted to lend a helping hand to my Mommy, to dry myself instead of her doing it for me everytime... (hopefully). As I dry myself, I will mumbled like, "dry my body"... "dry my hair", "dry my face"..."dry my private part"... etc. Mom used to do this so all these are merely just imitations. At this stage, mirror images will come in. Whatever the adults do, we (children) will follow suit. So, its important Mom & Dad set a very good example for us. Not an easy task though, as sometimes they just cannot control their emotions and break out by scolding us like hell.
