1-Year-Old Cedric

Time is a magic wand. In a wink, my little baby Cedric has turned into a cheerful, cheeky toddler. 

Now my big boy Cedric is very much a little adult. He is pretty good in doing what we adults do.

He can walk, sometimes he walks very fast, and he trippers and falls. But he is such a brave boy, he will stand back up in no time, and walk again. But his little legs sometimes get very tired from all the walking, and after 10 minutes or so he will start wanting to sit on the floor, and want daddy mommy to 抱抱 (carry). Never mind my good boy, let mommy 抱抱，then you can walk again when you have enough rest ok?

Walking in my first shoes!

He is a chatty boy, he can talk, talk and talk. But too bad mommy and daddy is not very smart, so we can only understand some, but not all of what he wanted to tell us. Luckily he is not at all discouraged by his blur parents. He keeps his talking spirit high and always patiently explaining and talking to us.

His favourite words are "nen nen" (milk), "抱抱" (carry), "mom mom" (eat), "wow wow" (dog), "pa pa pa" (daddy). Oh, not forgetting his signature 不要不要 (Don't want!), which comes in a package with a dramatic shake of head and hands.

Since last week, mommy decided that Cedric is a big enough boy, so he has been promoted to join the rest of the family members at the dining table. He has his own spoon and plate, so he is free to feed himself and explore his food. One good thing about my lovely boy is that he is quite generous in sharing his food. He shares it with the floor, the chair and his shirt. And he sometimes worries that mommy is hungry, so he likes to feed mommy his food too! Mommy is so proud of Cedric who is not stingy to share. I hope you can keep up this good trait and continue sharing with others.

Self feeding, the Popeye way

Mommy I feed you!

Cedric is a very affectionate boy. He likes to hug and kiss. His way of showing his love is by head-to-head knocking, and rubbing his face and nose against his loved ones with a lot of energy and passion. Sometimes he will kiss/eat/bite your face, nose, eye with his little mouth, and leave his sweet saliva as a souvenir.

We rub head sayang sayang

Cedric sayang yiyi

Cedric is a lucky boy. He is being loved deeply by daddy mommy, gong gong popo, grandpa grandma, yiyi, gugu, and suk suk. And he himself is a fair boy with a big heart. He will share his love with all who love him. He will want gong gong to carry for a while, then it's yiyi's turn. Before play time with daddy, he will sayang mommy for a while and perhaps gives a few kisses and hugs so that mommy won't feel left out. He makes sure everyone has enough of his attention and love, so that all will not get jealous and fight among each other. 

We are lucky to be blessed with Cedric! We are one big happy family who loves Cedric dearly!

We love Cedric!
