Calling Names
Ivan’s vocabulary has greatly increased over the past month. He can now call almost everyone by his or her title:
- Papa
- Mommy
- Ah Ma (My mum)
- Ah Ee (My sister)
- …Tuk (My Step-dad)
- Yeh Yeh (FIL)
- Mah Mah (MIL)
- Kor Kor
- Je Je
And last but not least, to make the 2 SILs happy, he has obliged them, about 2 weeks ago, by saying:
- Goo Jeh (SIL#1 & SIL#2)
People he has yet to learn to call are those he seldom see, like:
- Suk Suk (BIL)
- Ah Ku (My brother)
More on his other vocabularies in a later post… lunch time!

want Renee to assist him in vocab ah?
renee’s vocabulary is beyond the kids’ wo… hehehe, well, it’s so nice to start hearing them speak.
This egghead always teach kids the wrong thing. *shake head*
Btw, you are Hokkien and your hubby Cantonese?
B’cos those are exactly what Zara should be calling my side of the family (in Hokkien) and hubby’s side of the family (in Cantonese).
Maybe Ivan can teach Zara how to call ppl.
Ivan is so clever!
egghead: your son can say liao ar? hehehe
janie wah… thanks but no thanks wor, renee’s vocab hardcore wan…
rayern: yalor, if Ivan learn from Renee I can faint liao…
agnes: yup, exactly… my side Hokkien and hubby’s side is Cantonese.. get the best of both worlds ma
next time maybe Zara will overtake him la, coz girls learn faster… so she can teach him back LOL
jefferene: thanks

Dat little fella of urs sure does learn fast. Kekeke, any rewards for new words or not?
king’s wife: yea, he pandai ambil hati
jazzmint: think they have learning spurts… if you keep repeating the words to them and make a specific link to the word, they catch up VERY fast
dinah thanks
tracy: got got… sure got rewards la… lotsa kisses from everyone lor heheheheheh all of them so sayang him
Wow, that’s a lot of words for a 1 yr+ boy. BB can hardly call anyone when he was one. But they do learn and catch up very fast.
Is Ivan the only grand child?
allyfeel: yeah, Ivan’s the only grandchild for both our families for now
