The pooping is getting very stable. Good bye miralax, good bye milk of magnesia!
He definitely masted the power wheels
He drove 7 miles today and of course we also run 7 miles after him. lol. He was very happy.
The pooping is so smooth!
It was like 30 seconds, and done! Wow!
Today's Karate class with Rebecca
Andre is definitely getting better.
When we came back home, I parked on the street. On way we walked to home, Andre heard there was a little girl laughing at the playground in our community, and he looked at her and told me ”slide”. So we went there played the slide once. This is huge for him. He hasn’t play at that playground for a year, and one reason is that he is afraid of other kids! Very impressive with what he did!
The sleeping was not good in last three days. But that’s fine. It happens once in a while. Usually after bad sleeping, we see he will have some improvement. Probably, his serve system is developing.
Got a power wheels for him!
Got a power wheels for him! He liked it and had some fun. He hasn’t used to it yet. Need better coordination and motor planning. But I think he will master it really soon in next few days.
Another good thing we found about the power wheels is that it gave Andre a lot of proprioception input as it has plastic wheels and shakes a lot when it drives on hard surface. After Andre driving it, he felt very calm and not afraid of other kids anymore when he played at the play ground.
爸爸买了一个二手的power wheels. Andre第一次开自己的power wheels，!乐的不行。还不太熟。需要手眼脚协调。
Keep pooping in the toilet. Every day I let him poop after dinner, and I will stay with him in the toilet. Andre was whining/complaining/bargaining with me every single time when he was seating on the toilet. I always say “first pooping then do (something)”, he then started whining with a sad face:”don’t want to poop / don’t have eating dinner anymore / don’t have playing with grandma anymore / don’t have ….. “ I will play a poker face and keep telling him pooping first. lol
This is the last week of his swimming class from Walnut Gymnasium and Teen Center
Today's swimming class! This is the last week of his swimming class from Walnut Gymnasium and Teen Center. He made a lot of progress and had a lot of fun.
He took a nap yesterday, as he woke up at 7:30 in the morning and was really sleepy around 2pm. Well the good thing is he got much better energy in the afternoon, but he woke up in the middle of last night for 1.5 or 2 hours… I guess the it’s not the time of completely taking off his nap yet…
Andre knows how to give a high five while jumping
Andre knows how to give a high five while jumping! He did it successfully the first time the Karate coach let him.
He did go kart with me twice today.
It was the first time he drew a Rubik's Cube and then colored it with different colors without any prompt! He never done any coloring with different colors before.
Karate挑起击掌一次成功。
连续开了2圈赛车。
给魔方图了很多颜色。
No naps in recent few days
Three days ago, we started taking off his naps. So far ok, he is just sleepy after 3pm. The first night he slept 11.5 hours, the second night was 10.5 hours, and third night was 10 hours. So the total hours are not bad.
The pro is we don’t need to give him malatonin anymore. He spends 40 minutes to 1 hour to fall asleep at night, which is acceptable.
We will keep going and see how it comes.
The poop is still good!
Third day pooping in the toilet. Twice and very smoothly
This is his third day pooping in the toilet. Once in the afternoon, and one in evening. No problem at all! I’m thinking about getting rid of the diaper in next few days as he knows pee and poop in the toilet already.
He didn’t fall asleep for nap. We wend to Speed Zone again and put him on bed early at night.
We went to the Speed Zone again as Andre asked for it. We also tried the mini golf. He hit balls into the hole for a few times from a very close distance. Very good!
Second day pooping in the toilet. Very smoothly! It only takes about 5 or 10 minutes. Done!
小飞又开赛车了。晚上说不开,早上说不开,一道下午就说开。
还打了高尔夫球。很像回事儿。
第二次坐马桶上拉屎特别顺利,屎也特别稀。
追猫玩,和小猫越来越熟。
The first time he pooped in the toilet!
Yes! I made it happen! I spent about one hour with Andre in the restroom and finally he pooped!!! I’m so exited! Yay!
We went to the Speed Zone again this evening. Andre was really into it! I said Andre and Daddy drive together, and he said:” Andre drive myself” lol. I let him try the “Lil' Thunder“ which is for the small kid. Andre didn’t get it, he just did for a few yards and tried a left turn, and then hit the curb. We pulled him out after that.
Then I drove him on the Turbo Track, which is really fast. He liked it!
Andre说:自己开赛车。爸爸问:一起开好吗？Andre说: 自己开。然后自己开,努力听指令,慢慢滑行了一点,不太会转弯,吓得哭。
第一次坐马桶上拉了屎。爸爸用了2个开赛路,喝了很多水,吃了很多桃子。
I decided to do potty training for Andre! Staring today!
Andre and pee in the toilet if I ask him. The hard part is the poop!!! I’m going to make this happen.
He hasn’t poop for almost 4 days! His belly is getting bigger, sigh.
小飞自己组句子了: “妈妈, 红色旧的水彩笔坏了。”然后露出可惜的表情。
喜欢描东西了。
Andre started practicing of putting more words together and make a sentence in Mandarin Chinese. He said many times in the car today:”Mama, the old red watercolor pen is broken.” and then he had a sad face. Really funny.
去123 pediatric那里第一次要了蓝火车,没要绿火车。
第一次把手里两个玩具都放下,然后2只手端碗喝的醋。
We went to 123 pediatric for a PT session this morning and Andre first time asked for the blue train toy instead of the green one! He always asked the green train before.
At dinner time, first time he put down the toys without prompt and hold a bowl, and drank some vinegar (he likes drinking vinegar)
Pt按摩不舒服,知道躲tustin karen阿姨了。
自己要并且洗胳膊洗腿特别棒。
First time Andre asked to wash his own arms and legs by himself when he is taking bath tonight! Yay!
Dad's birthday!
自己洗手,先洗手心,然后手背,然后手指间,以前教的顺序都记得。
爸爸生日,小飞和爸爸一起吹了蜡烛，唱了生日歌,第一次吃完了一大块蛋糕，小飞通常不喜欢蛋糕这种黏糊糊的口感。在车库里用橙色软条条假装小蛇,一边slither一边发出丝丝的声音。
最近2周睡觉特别少且混乱,精神很差。
自己在车里说: 做一个橙色的隧道滑梯。
Today is my birthday! (Aww.. I fourgot to take pictures!) We had cake at dinner and I blew candles with Andre together! I’m surprised Andre liked the cake, and he had big piece. Usually he doesn’t like this kind of texture. Hmm… that’s definitely improvement!
Andre can wash hands pretty good and remembers all the steps.
After dinner, he used a little rope and pretend it to be a snake with hissing sound.
Behavior change!
A few days ago, he suddenly let us sing “twinkle twinkle little star or ABC song “ when he is nervous, and he did not whine anymore. Usually he whines when he gets nervous. Also it seems he got nervous a lot more for no reason and keep letting us singing.
Another change is his sleeping. His sleeping time suddenly became less than before, like 9.5 hours average.
His energy is also low through out the day. It looks like he is sleepy.
We don’t know the reason and we will keep an eye one it.
