New Year, New Improvements

It's the Ox year and so far, so good. There were so much happening and I just have not time or too tired to blog. Let's start with the New Year. I was looking forward to some 'free time' by planning to spend 2 days in my parent's house on first and second day. Unfortunately, I was downed with a very bad food poisoning on the first day. I barely have any energy to walk or do anything. Dominic was busy minding Lucas so that I can get some rest. There were quite a number of children in my parent's place but Lucas refused to play with them. He just stick to us like a koala bear. There goes my wishful thinking of some 'free time'. Dominic even commented to Lucas, 'Why are you so anti-social?'. I am beginning to wonder how can I make him more sociable. What have I not done enough? I have a one year old niece who called out for Lucas each time she sees him passes by. But this boy just refused to acknowledge or even bother look at his cousin.

However, this Chinese New Year he has learned to appreciate firecrackers i.e. the 'pop-pop' and the smaller rocket. He enjoys eating cookies especially the cookies with crushed peanuts. Despite all the new findings, he still doesn't know the concept of 'angpow' though. Maybe next year...

His potty training has improved as well. He still sleeps with his diaper but he is quite alright during his waking hours. Oh..once we were doing grocery shopping in Tesco and he needed to go to the toilet. I took him to the toilet but he refused to sit on the toilet. He said 'dirty', (Malaysia is not exactly known for clean toilet anyhow). We had to rush home to prevent any accident from happening.
