Time passes in the twinkle of an eye.
Baby Justin is now already 17 months 5 days old.
I remember 2 years ago, we were all excited when we discovered that i was pregnant.
and it was a super enjoyable 9 months of pregnancy, minus all the stress at work and all
the eventual hiccups that happened. But throw them all aside.
I was blessed with a cute and handsome son. AHAH.. ya, i am biased.
But i think my son always got this cheeky look that make him soo cute!! 
The journey of motherhood is definitely not an easy one.
But i think its an extremely fulfilling experience, that i would never trade for anything else.
Because i believe even when i am going to have my second kid,
its going to be a totally different experience.
So as i was going thru the photos taken thus far,
i felt that it is most apt to do a mini record book of the progress of Justin thus far..
Day 1: Welcome to the World, little precious!
1 week old
2 weeks old
1 month old
2 months old
3 months old
4 months old – where we shaved off his baby hair for the very first time.
5 months old
And his first milestone..learning to flip successfully on his own with ease.
And Baby justin was dedicated to the Lord when he was 23 weeks old, and prayed for by Pastor Kong 
At 6 months old, he started his first solid food. See how happy he was
At 7 months, he started crawling… all over the place!!
At 8 months, his first 2 white pearlies came out… and his looks started to evolve already.
And this was also another mini-milestone for him… where he started to hold on to objects and try to stand up on his old… for like.. er… 10 secs.. haha
At 9 months, he was finally able to sit up on his own, unassisted.
At 11 months
And baby turns 1 year old!! And he now has 4 white pearlies!
At 13 months ~Getting more and more cheeky now! Aiyoh
At 14 months.
This was one of the hardest and heartpain month, because Justin fell very sick the whole month,
And he was diagnosed with Kawasaki Disease.
It was definitely a period of testing and trial for the whole family.
And i will always remember the night where i almost lost him. So scary even up till today when i think about it.
But thank God for his healing and hands upon Justin.
He is now almost 95% healed and apart from the regular checkups, life is back to normal.
But I have a strong boy. He got up on his feet soon after, and now, full of energy every single day!
At 15 months
And his new found interest~ The guitar !!
Another milestone for Justin at 16 months~ He took his first step and started walking freely on his own.
And ya, that was the beginning of our extremely busy period…
cos now, his fave activity is to walk and walk and walk!!
Now, he is 17 months.
He is definitely a lot more expressive.
and naughty to the max!
He now can understand almost all the things that we tell him,
things that he can do and cannot do.
Of cos, like evey other kid, he will choose to obey or not to obey.
So the dilemna of most parents: when should i start to cane my child?
And i must say, Justin is so naughty now that i have to take out my cane
almost every other day. Haven whack on him yet.. but so far, i think it
still works whenever i take it out and he will immediately back off from whatever he is doing.
And Interestingly, at 17 months, he can actually say quite a number of words already:
Daddy
Mummy
Ah – Yee! !!!! (and he always call Elyna with greatest energy, i wonder why???)
Ma-ma (calling my mother in law)
Po-po (calling my mother)
Car
Bubble
Ball
Eat
Cheese
Gui-tar
I-pad
Book
Kor-kor
Baby
Star
Ah-ney (supposed to be Barney)
Mum-mum (to eat)
Nien nien (milk)
Bom bom (to bath)
Book
and many other words are represented by the yi-yi-ah-ah…..
I think its time i start to plan for his next stage of learning…. to put him in a childcare or nursery…..
sometimes, i really wish my son doesn’t grow up so fast, cos i want to enjoy him more…. thats always the dilemna of a working mum i guess.
