Yee Sinn never fails to surprise hubby and I with her motor-skills. Some people says that boys develop their motor skills much faster than girls. However, we are very sure that our little girl is progressing very fast in that area. She can now easily pull herself up into a standing position and is now not afraid to fall flat on her butt. Some people asked us how we train her to do it... very simply, we just let her tumble and fall. Yes, there were numerous times she fell flat on her face, knocked her head or even slipped while crawling. However, all we did was to tell her it was an accident, pick her up and sayang her for awhile. Once the wailing stops, we'll put her back onto the floor (hard cold floor!) and encourage her to explore on her own further.

There is also a small pearlie tooth showing on her lower left jaw. Perhaps that explains her refusal for milk (either that or the breastmilk is now pretty much tasteless) and her constant gumming on all things that she can lay her hands on.
