It seems like just yesterday when my son was born and today he's 18 months old. Thanks be to God for this day!
Having a selfie awhile ago
Having fun with his big sister Amber
Enjoying their selfie together! :)
What Moses love to do at this stage is listening to ABC songs, he loves to sing along and really have a passion for singing. He loves to use the Ipad everyday and would watch his favorite shows like Mother Goose Club which is his most favorite educational show on YouTube, followed by Kids Camp, ABC Kid TV, Little Baby Bum, Busy Beavers and Tutitu.

ABCD, sing along with me :)

He is actually a bit choosy with the shows he would be watching as he easily gets bored but if he really likes one, he would surely spend time with it.
Seriously watching The Wheels On The Bus :)
I love it when I see him copy some movements like when he watches The Itsy Bitsy Spider, Wheels On The Bus, Open Shut Them, The Finger Family, Johny Johny Yes Papa, The Ghost Family and many more.
♪ Open shut them ♫
♫ Peek a boo! ♪
♪ The mommy on the bus says "Shush, shush, shush" ♫
Both he and his big sister Amber loves Connie Talbot's version of Count On Me song. They always love to sing this song together. Every time he hears it, there's a spark on his eyes. He knows the song pretty well even just following the tune. He would look at me while he sings some lines and I find it really cute when he gets to that part where the lyrics goes ♩ ♪ Wooooh, wooooh ♫. He sings it perfectly well!

Aside from singing, he also have a passion for dancing. He loves to watch Just Dance on YouTube and can perform some dance steps. His favorites are Nicki Minaj's Starships, Taio Cruz' Dynamite, One Directions' What Makes You Beautiful and Ylvis' The Fox.
At Funzone, dances to the rhythm of the music and lights
Aside from dancing and singing, he is fond with phonics, too. While watching, he will say a word or mimic a sound. He loves to learn the numbers, colors and shapes, animals, fruits and also the nursery rhymes as well.
Let's all count 123!
His language skills are growing, though he understands more than he can express. Some of the several single words that he can say are banana (as he eats this often), apple, purple, blue, Spongebob (he usually see this on TV every time his big sister is watching Nick Jr) hello, boo, and some other more.
Bananas are his favorites aside from mangoes
He can quickly pick up new words from what he hears. He can follow simple directions like "Get the tissue and give it to me." He will quickly grab his shoes when you say "Get your shoes, let's go!" as he loves to go out and take a walk. =)

What I also admire about him is his passion for writing. He loves to write and scribbles with a crayon. He knows how to handle a pencil or crayon perfectly well at a very young age.
You will see him always holding a pencil at home :)
To add with this milestone, he loves to do everything by himself. While eating, he loves to hold the spoon himself and would eat on his own same with holding his own cup. Most of the time, he wouldn't want to be held when he's exploring or playing around. He would want to walk by himself and don't want to be carried.
Happy eating by himself! :)
Enjoys every meal
Loves the salad!
He loves to play ball, hold a balloon, blow some bubbles and play educational toys and cars.

He is a busy toddler who keeps on moving here and there! Likes to climb up and down the window especially on a chair. Exploring here and there, bumps and falls don't stop him. Thank God for every moment, they're just minor ones. I just always make sure that I pay close attention with him.
A future mountain climber? :)
When it comes to his social behavior, he shows affection to familiar people, is afraid with strangers or most of the time is shy with those people he seldom sees. But when you started talking or playing with him, you will easily get his attention.

Regarding his emotional development, there are times that he will throw some mild tantrums when he is bored or wants something but you can easily cheer him up. Such a happy fella who always loves to smile!
My little genius who loves to wear glasses! :)
Here comes trouble! ^_^
Am I still a cutie here? :)
And lastly, with regards to his sleeping pattern, nothing has change. Up to present, he sleeps straight through the night and would often wake up late in the morning.
Wake up little one... It's almost noon! =)
Fell asleep on his Dad's shoulder <3
I'm so thankful that I'm still nursing him up to now. He is really attached to breast milk in which is an important part of his diet as with the health benefits it provides though I always make sure that his main food comes from solids.
I love you, as always! I will always cherish every moment that we are together... <3
