Some updates on my little precious...

1. Toilet Training
Xinru has been telling on that she wants to go 小便 mostly at night when i am accompanying her to sleep other than that, unless she is not playing anything if not she will not tell us that she wants to go toilet...
But i think her poos have been very dry and hard so it seems like after one or twice of telling us she wants to 'enn enn' she only shows us that she wants to poo. I monitored a few times and realised that i think she feels pain at her anus so she does not want to sit on the toliet bowl to do her big business and there is slight bleed when i cleaned her after her poos.. Which is one of the reason why i do not want to toilet train her at this stage but apparetly she started her own toilet training.
I checked with the teachers whether did they start toilet train her but they say no and maybe it could be that she sees other older kiddos being taught to do that and she learned from them...
Last weekend when we went to Compass Point, she told me she wants to 小便 so i hurried her to the toilet and i think she kept her bladder too long and before she sits on the toilet bowl, her urine gushed out....

2. Discipline
I bought a cane like few months back just in case i need it... haha... Initially when i bought it, she is still a little afraid of it but i think her daddy spoilt market used it too often on small issue example when Xinru does her little notti act like offing the tv when her daddy is watching and now she is no longer afraid of it...
Like when she try to climbs up the coffee table, i will tell her that 'if u climb, mummy will use cane ok.. u want?' then she will tell me 'want..' so i took and when she trys to climb up again, i give a slight hit on one side of the leg and she 'offered' her other leg for me to beat... same goes to the hand. Eventually i give up the idea of using cane.
Last weekend, i think due to lack of sleepy, she gets a bit couchy and when she does not get her Barney VCD from the TV console, she sits on the floor and cry real hard... Nothing can stop her and guess what she do next... She stood up, goes to the side of the TV console and pull down all the letters and papers on the console all over the floor.... I saw it and she purposely did it for me to see again. This time round, i went to her, told her nicely to pick up all the things and what she do next?? She did it to show me again. I was of course angry, gave her palm a smack. That does not help though and she continued to pull the rest of the letters down onto the floor. I smacked the other palm of hers and this time round, she cries and stood infront of her daddy. She cough while crying and she actually spit out her saliva on the floor!! I am real angry and went to 'tack' her cheek and it turns red... and of course she was crying like dunno what.. and throwing her tanturms....
I dragged her and put her on a chair near the main door and asked her to sit there. She sit there crying but did not come down cause i tell her that she can't come down till she settles down. True enough she sat there crying... I asked her whether have she cried enough and she shake her head.... and i tell her to continue sitting there till she cried enough...
After a while, i asked her again 'Have u cried enough?' This time round, she nodded her head and quiet down... Then i walked over to her and tell her that what she does is a no no and that mummy will get angry then i gave her a hug and i told her nicely 'So now, can darling help mummy to keep those letters and put it back onto the table?' she nodded her head and ran and kept all the letters and put them back in place.... See it works!!! hehe....
I truly believe that after she came down from the notti chair, we have to talk to them and really showed her that we still love her but her bahaviour is not accepted....
That was the first time i used the notti chair on her and now when she reach home or is near the chair, she will point and tell me 'mummy.. notti chair..' and i will tell her 'yes... that's the notti chair and if Xinru is notti, mummy will have to put you on the notti chair... Understand?' and she nodded her head and say 'understand...'

Sometimes it pains me to use my hands on her but i feel that now she is growing up already if i dun teach her the right things then when should i start?? When she gets nottier?? i think by then it will be harder to teach...

3. Languages
She is getting more and more vocal with her sentences but she will like paused a while if the sentence is kind of long to her....

Example
i) that day when i bring her to the school, she saw a cat climbing up the tree and i told her that 猫猫爬树 wait fall down knock knock pain pain..' then after that she walk and walk then suddenly she will say '猫猫...爬树... fall down knock knock....' then i will tell her 'ya... 猫猫...爬树... later fall down pain pain lor...' after a while she will repeat again...
Now every day on the way home, she will keep calling out for 猫猫 and tell me the same thing again... haha

ii) I also use 'crawl crawl' to make her still on the bed.. hehe like when i do not want her to go out of the room and i tell her 'got crawl crawl ok.. if you come down, later crawl crawl will bite you....' then every nite when she gets on the bed, she will tell me instead 'crawl crawl... bite.... xinru....' then i will tell her 'u cannot go down okie.. later crawl crawl come ah...' :P

iii) Every nite, she will point to her arm and tell me 'mummy... zackers bite... pain pain...' and i will tell her 'zackers bite Xinru huh..' and she will nodded her head and say 'yes..' then i will tell her 'next time if Zackers wants to bite you, Xinru tell him go away.. cannot bite...' and now when she tells me again that Zackers bite her, she will say 'mummy... zackers bite.. pain pain... go away....' hehe... She is able to understand and use the words correctly even if the things that we say is different.... :)

4. Sweet things
She might be still a little toddler but she does do sweet things.... sometimes at home when i am not with her and she is playing with her toys alone, she will suddenly call out for me in those very sweet tone.... then when i replied her 'yes darling...' then she will say tat too.... sometimes when i ask her to 帮mummy按摩... She will come to you, then pressed my shoulder....

5. My Little Discipline Mistress
Why i call her this... Her daddy has a habit of putting his legs on the other 2 seater sofa when he is sitting on the 3 seater sofa and when Xinru sees that, she will tell her daddy 'daddy.... no no....' and she will go and make her daddy's leg off the sofa then tell him 'cannot...'

Hmm time to stop.... getting too wordy already... :P
