Babywye's milestones at 20m

Last photo with this funky shades until she broke it 20 mins later


Realised I don't pen down babywye's milestones as faithfully as I did with her sister's. Is it #2ndchildsyndrome? Haha. It could be. Like, not as much novelty and amazement when you see your child achieving certain things e.g. singing a song, both feet in the air jumping etc.

Shall attempt to do so! She's 20m and 3 weeks now. Photos are from within the past month.

  • Able to recite 1-10 in both English and Mandarin really quickly!
  • Recognises who the clothes in the laundry belong to (like her sister! Is it a baby thing?)
  • Can sing the first and second lines of "twinkle twinkle little star"
  • Understands and able to follow simple sentences, such as "go to xxx and do xxx", "come and change diapers", "tell jie jie to xxx", "do you want to eat/bathe/sleep?", etc
  • Very active, likes to climb and jump and roll around
  • Can identify more than 30 animals (thanks to flash cards)
  • Reads on her own sometimes, but not more than 2 mins
  • Plays on her own sometimes, but not more than 5 mins
  • Enjoys watching Simple Songs and Wiggles
  • Quite adept at feeding herself, as in she holds the spoon quite steadily and can put the food cleanly in and out of her mouth
  • Likes to eat almost anything, asks specifically for vegetables and egg
  • Able to take minimal degree of spicy food! Her reaction is, "辣,辣" before asking for water, but she doesn't scream or grimace
  • Informs us when she has peed/pooed but she can't differentiate the two yet
  • Asks for jiejie when she wakes up
  • When she sees us lying down, she slams on our bodies and says, "爸爸,起来!" (learnt this from her sis)
  • Drinks 150ml for breakfast, 120-150ml for tea break and 150-180ml before bed
  • Loves to eat almost anything and everything, curious to try what others are eating. Favourite foods are egg, blueberries, strawberry, kiwi
  • Able to lift both feet off the ground when she jumps!


  • Can't really grip and use the pen well
  • Doesn't like swimming, wails when near the pool (like her sister!)

Random notes from Ye

On 2 separate occasions, I was working at my home desk when Ye sat beside, doodled on a post-it and passed it to me:
