Growing: Triz @ 22 Months

It is but amazing how a child grows in the span of just months, weeks, or even days. I am always in awe with the baby's growth and development ever since I became an aunt to my very first niece some fifteen years ago. Updating and recording my very daughter's milestones is no big task at all, given the fact that she is showing me how much she has grown in the last four weeks. Too bad I missed the last monthly records of her, blame it on how busy life in Philippines right now, with me being so lazy in updating my blogs ; instead, minding and enjoying our stay in this very hot and humid place.
Anyway, today marks Triz's 22 months birthdate. We were singing a happy birthday song this morning, I and Ate Jov while playing with Triz and Yaya was in the kitchen cooking something when she heard us and she suddenly asked whose birthday it is. I said it's Triz and she said no. I insisted it is, and clarified that it's Triz's 22 months birth date and then she agreed. Well, she then counted two more months before we're gonna have a big party for our pretty little girl's second birthday. Ahhh.. oh... how much time flies. Now I am already thinking of holding a Jollibee kiddie party for her so every kid right here would surely have a blast. Yes, Ate and Yaya did agreed so we are all excited.

And now on her milestones:
->She now talks a lot. But yeah, she imitates everyone's words and actions more so B-E-W-A-R-E indeed!
->She prays before meal by folding her hand, bowing her head, and closing her eyes, making everyone around so amazed by such habit.
->She takes a nap for a longer time, as long as I am just beside her, but if I am not, I'll make sure she is too exhausted and tired before letting her sleep during the day.
->I started to let her take a vitamins five days ago and a day after she has taken the first dose, boy did she had a great appetite! And thank God for it was my first and foremost mission. LoL. See, she has loose weight and reduce in {size} since we arrived because maybe, she underwent a culture (food, weather, people) shock. LoL but true.
->She still is a mama's girl, 100 %, but with the help of my loved ones and swithart's I can leave her for five hours the longest. And yeah, she didn't cry at all. And I love the feelings of being missed when I get home to her. :) KWIM fellow moms?
->She misses her dadi much, and I could tell just by her looks and feelings. Her excitement when she saw dad in the videos and thru the webcam is indescribable, and when they talk with each other during chatting time, ah it fascinates everyone around.
->She enjoys real animals and real sounds of those animals as there are a lot of those here.
->She plays a lot. And is such a teaser when it comes to her habit like scattering things that have just been arranged my Lola or aunts.
->She could identify and remember people quite easily.
->She could count from 1 to 10 with a help from somebody to start the counting. Hehe. And could recite the alphabets too nicely with my help.
I still have a lot to tell and share, but for now, I'll just say she is adored by each and all. And she is a darling among the crowd.

I am a proud mom, I know. But can you blame me? :)
