Haris doesn't talk yet..should i worry?

Haris has just turned 2 last month but he doesn't talk yet..huhuhu.. what should i do? However haris does pointing and seems to understand to what we say. So i guess he's well on his way to talking. Besides he also has learned to say a few words..mama..nak..bak..susu.. It just that he doesn't seem interested in saying anything else, he does however understand to what i say He'll get his shoes to go outside and point to things and make a noise when he can't reach something. When it's time to say good bye he waves bye-bye. He will just smile and push the book towards me again to indicate that he wants me to read. He is very happy and loving, he babbles, grunts and points. Although he may not be saying real "words," he doing lots of babbling and noise making.. seems like he's "pretending" to talk ("Mamam-baaaaa-ma-nonono..haisha..!!") ..So, anyway, I'm relieved he's doing just fine, I was getting worried because he isn't talking as early as her older sister did. Hmm..anyway.. boys tends to develop language skills more slowly than the girls.. :-).. Actually we can't really compare the kids since they all develop at their own speed. I am really hoping he will just start talking when he is ready to.


Question: Should I worry that my 2 year-old seems to say fewer words than other kids her age and isn't really putting sentences together yet?

Answer: If your daughter has just turned 2, I wouldn't be overly concerned at this point. Most children have a working vocabulary of about 50 words by age 2, but this is just an average — every child develops differently, and girls generally talk earlier than boys do. However, just to play it safe, it may be wise to have a hearing evaluation by an audiologist who performs tests specifically designed for toddlers. The evaluation should include a tympanogram, a painless test to see whether your child has any residual fluid in her middle ear.

Fluid behind the eardrum is one of the most common reasons for speech delays in toddlers — it makes it hard for a child to understand and imitate speech. Frequent ear infections, colds, dairy allergies, or a reaction to secondhand smoke are common causes of middle ear fluid accumulation, which doesn't always carry symptoms. If this is the problem, you should see a rather significant and immediate improvement in your child's quantity and quality of speech once it has been corrected.Assuming that your child's hearing is normal, I would keep an ear out for the next few months to see whether her speech improves. In the meantime, if your child uses a pacifier, get rid of it. Sucking on a pacifier, though it may be comforting, locks her mouth into an unnatural position, making it difficult for her to develop and strengthen her facial muscles normally. Also, if her mouth is constantly occupied by a pacifier, she's not getting as many opportunities as possible to practice talking.Keep an eye on her nonverbal communication, too. It's a good sign if your child is making up for her lack of speech by communicating her desires through gestures.By the time your child is 30 months or so, she should be speaking in short phrases ("Me big girl") and sentences, even if she mispronounces many words. If this is not the case, I would have a speech-language pathologist take a look to see whether you could do some specific activities at home to help give her a little jumpstart.

Najihah & her new skill

Now I know my ABC...

"Most children begin recognizing some letters between the ages of 2 and 3 and can identify most letters between 4 and 5. This means that you can start teaching your child the alphabet when he’s around 2 — but don’t expect full mastery for some time…”

I am so happy to know that najihah can now write A to E without referring to any books. At that time I was watching tv with both of my kids when suddenly najihah said ‘mama, tgk ni najihah pandai tulis A’.. Yippie.. I was so excited knowing that she know the alphabet already.. then she wrote E & C and showed it to me.. clever girl.. pandai anak mama ni.. Then I showed her how to write B & D .. alhamdulillah.. she got it.. sayang anak mama..

A Visit from Mak Su

From Mak Su with Love.. kelantan Mari..

Today, my beloved auntie (my mom’s sister), mak su visited us. This is her first time visit since we moved to our new house in Puncak Alam. Finally mak su sampai jugak rumah aku..She came along with her daughters, Najla & Izyan.
Since she didn’t know how to go to Puncak Alam, I asked her to wait in front of my office. Cam la aku ni terror jalan.. aku pung sama blur..hampeh tul..So after subuh, mak su keluar rumah and waited for me as planned. When Aziz arrived, we moved Najihah & Haris to mak su’s car and headed back to Puncak Alam. Biasalah as I am quite blur with the route we lost hahahha..tak pasal2 masuk pi Jelutong muakakaa.. tu la berangan lagiks naik kereta.. ish..ish..Finally we managed to make a U turn and got back on the right track huhuhuhu.. When we arrived at ITM Puncak Perdana I did realize that I didn’t have my house’s keys with me..My oh my.. Edrina..edrina… hmm.. kartun la.. Then i called my father in law asking for the spare keys.. Luckily he always has our house’s spare keys with him.. huhuhuhu.. My father in law was actually on his way to the bank in Shah Alam.. so he turned back and passed the keys to us (we waited for him at ITM’s parking lot). Mencabar betul nak sampai rumah aku hahahhah.. Finally around 9 o’clock we arrived at my house.
We had roti canai & nasik lemak which we bought from nearby mamak’s restaurant for the breakfast. We had chit chat and at the same time we were entertained by a sweet little dancer…ehehhee…sapa lagiks.. my sweet little pie najihah lerr…btw we managed to capture a few video clips of Najihah’s dancing action using najla’s Nokia N70 phone. J . I will upload the clip later.
Around 11 o’clock, mak su & my beloved cousins went back to their Mak Tok’s house (her mother in law) at Damansara…coz they know I work night shift and surely needs some times to rest & sleep hmm… tq mak su kerana sudi datang melawat ke teratak kami… Mak su will always be the best auntie I’ve ever had. BTW mak su gave me a brooch as tanda ingatan..my mak su is always like that.. ada ajer benda nak kasik kalau jumpa… tqvm mak su.. loves u alwiz.. nanti datang bermalam pulak yer..mesti lagiks happening

Kuper.. siapa tahu apa maknanya?

Last Tuesday, when we was in Atuk's car, as usual najihah & haris fight over the front seat..out of the blue came out “kuper..kuper..kuper” from najihah’s mouth.. I didn’t know how to react actually… i was amused and a bit shocked.

Kuper is actually the Indonesian word which I also don’t know the actual meaning in malay… but I think it’s a bad word.

Wonder where she got the word from?
Recently we always watch together Indonesian drama entitled ‘Adinda’ … the story is about an orphan and nerd 16yo girl who was adopted by a rich family. Her friends and some of her family members always tease her and call her ‘kuper lagiks jelek’ and sometimes shouted at her ‘kuper..kuper..kuper’.

I did not expect that najihah would remember that and zero in her memory…huhuhuhu..
So I told najihah that it’s not good to say that to your brother. It’s a bad word and Allah don’t like if we say bad things to others. We will get dosa. I know that 3yo+ kid like najihah is too small to understand what is dosa, pahala, syurga & neraka but then I know she’s smart when she said..’oh..tuhan marah yer mama? Nanti mati masuk neraka? Eee takut’

After that day, I never heard she says that word anymore.. alhamdulillah.. anak mama is a good girl.

I, myself also have learnt a lesson that we must always guide our children or at least tell them don’t do the bad things that we watch on the tv.. They may be cannot understand but slowly they will get it.

Congratulation Honey!

Congratulation to my hubby on his new job offered. Hubby went for interview on Monday’s afternoon and got the job right away after that. It was really happy news which made hubby smiles throughout the day.

I always said to hubby that Allah knows best when to grant/fulfils our wishes. We just need to pray & do our best. After attended a lot of interviews (more than 10 I think) finally Allah granted hubby’s wishes. Syukur Alhamdulillah.

Hubby’s New Company Info :
It’s a MNC (UK based)
He will join the new co. middle of June 06.
He will be going to Chennai, India for training
Most probably there is a need for Babah to go for training in London, UK (wow syookknyaa..nak itut huhuhu..)
He will support Asia Pacific.
It's a manager post.
He will do HR, bsc related things.. bla..bla..bla..
It’s a end user environment..operational. la. ok lah kan ..Not as hectic as vendor env.. serik…

Honey,
Here, I wish you all the best and take care.

Luv u alwiz

This song is specially dedicated to you sayang ..
