2 Teeths & Saying more words

15-June-2007 friday - Today we found Vernon had his 2 first molar grew exactly at 17months old. for the past 2 week, we already monitoring on the tooth development. and wonder why Vernon keep bitting his bottle nipple.
At the same time, looking at Vernon's speech capabilities. He is now able to say averagely 40 vocabulory by 17 months old.
what are the new words he say? "ok", "Mommy instead of mama he used to call me now. He even can call Aunty & uncle. Nai nai, Chor chor, Mei Mei, baby, keys,butter-fly,close, open........."
I evenheard Nai nai saying that Vernon able to called the doggie's name at chor chor's house - "moh moh....moh moh"
His understanding is pretty strong, He can response to u whenever u calling his name :
Me : Vernon
Vernon : Hmmmh

Even with what Vernon know so far, papa still not satisfy. As he saw a little girl at 2 year old whom also hopitalized at the same time as vernon. She able to say in Malay "satu, dua, tiga till sepuluh." Then I told papa, don't u think your Vernon is pretty clever already, he is capable of saying the words instead of a single Alphabet. U cannot make comparison, each toddler have their own ability stage by stage.
