Iel walks at 1 year 5 months






At last! Mariel can now walk unaccompanied. We know that her vestibular sense (read: balance) was damaged to some extent so we did not expect her to walk alone so soon. She also knows now how to hold a pen - in tripod grip- and scribbles only in paper! She won't write unless you give her a piece of paper.

She is also fixated to her own possessions - she knows her own bottle, her own place in the dining table, her own toys. She even boxed her Ate Keiichi when her ate sat on her cart. She shows different emotions now and starts showing her temper. Pag galit, nakabusangot at nananampal. Pag masaya, nakangiti o natawa pero nanampal pa rin hehe Para din siyang hapon na mahilig magbow ng head. And she even want you to bow your head too in recognition, pauso nga niya ang forehead kissing e hehe

Above is her walker/cart. We havent reassembled it yet because it's quite high for her. She cannot touch the floor if it's in a cart shape. When tired, she just remove the toy pad and sit in the compartment. That's how creative and resourceful she is :-)
