Headstand...

Richie is Acrobatic Junior.
Last time he could do roll over head, now he can headstand...not sure what he will do next

His favorite activities

There are two favorite activites : playing keyboard and photograph.
Perhaps it's from mom's genes.
Every morning, mommy always hears him playing keyboard even though only 3 minutes and he just anyhow plays and when mommy steps up to teach him some notes. He immediately turn off the keyboard and doesn't want mommy touch it..
Oh boy !!

And every time he meets Om Reynard, he will say photo photo.  He either wants to be photographed or he wants to take picture
Anyway, he has photogenic smile too hehe

Drawing with crayon

Mommy has tried color pencil, twisted crayola, marker but all of them never attrack Richie to draw. So when the last resort is given which is crayon...Richie likes it, he can hold the crayon well and he's willing to draw it too.
Mommy's so happy...!

This is his first artwork

Photoshoot

This is 2nd time Richie becomes "model" hehe..
The first one is when he was 6 months old. This time round, mommy and daddy don't need to work so hard to make him pose and smile. He knows what to do in front of camera.
He likes to pose naturally...
we choose white and jeans as a theme and the playground as the location

From Zero to Hero : Richie's 2 years journey

Sounds exaggrating huh...
But it's true for mommy and daddy when we see how Richie has grown up and make great improvements in many aspects.

We remembered when he was 1 year old :

he's only able to stand with support, now he could run, jump, climbing up and down 2 storey stairs and climbing up and slide down the 2 storey slide all by himself
he only spoke few words and many baby talks, now he can speak bilingual without confused (when people don't understand his bahasa, he will switch to english directly haha )
he only knew circle, now he knows more shapes (circle, triangle, rectangle, star, heart, square, crescent), numbers 1 - 10 (he learns in few days only), some alphabets and colors (red, orange, blue, white)

he's very fussy with milk and mommy needed to change the brand of milk every month, now he could accept milk even though it's spoonfed
he only ate soupy food, now he could eat whatever mommy cooks and gives
he only had 4 teeth, now he had 12 teeth and counting

he's such an obedient boy, now he could choose what he likes or dislikes, yell and obey, and sometimes tries to outsmart us
he's still on diaper the whole day, now only half day, sleeping time is still on diaper
he's a social person, now he's so clingy and attached with mommy (luckily mommy and daddy have gone for holiday break hehe )
he didn't bother if his friend took his toys, now he became self centered person and sometimes bullied his friends, oh my ...

Well, there are many more improvements that we couldn't remember, but one thing we know for sure he has colored our life with laugh and tears, joy and frustration
Keep on coloring my little hero, happy 2nd Birthday to you and welcome to preschooler life !
