I really hate it when Alfee scream but I literally flinch and cower if he screams at our corridor. Our neighbours can hear us very clearly even when we use our normal conversation volume, so his screams would be quite unbearably loud and painful. Yet, the kids love to play and scream just before we take the lift down.
We left home slightly earlier so we ended up sitting at Starbucks while waiting for Sophie's JMC class. Frankly, the joint is quite pathetic with very little variety in the morning. However, we didn't want to join the crowds inside Thomson Plaza.
Slowly but gradually, Alfee can sit on booster seat or normal chairs with the restraints of straps. He still wiggles off every now and then but he can understand what is required and expected of him. He's also a lot more aware of his environment so he will always take note of where we are and come back ti us when we call out to him.
I think in terms of music sense, Alfee seems to be a little better than Sophie. I suspect it has something to do with their learning styles. Sophie is definitely a more visual person than him and he picks up things way too easily and quickly from what we say. After Sophie's JMC class, we stopped by the video shop to rent some night entertainment.
When Sophie was in her art class, we went to Kinokuniya. It has been a while since we lingered and bought from there. Nowadays, I browse there for inspirations and buy books online. I still get magazines there though. I might subscribe eventually because it's too costly to buy copy by copy off rack, but it's also a hassle to subscribe.
It's interesting to watch how Sophie and Alfee grow and develop. Sophie used to whine for the pram because the walking made her tired. And I used to carry Alfee in my arms everywhere for a long time before he grew accustomed to the pram. Now, he's starting to prefer walking.
