Happy 21st Month Chloe!

I'm proud that this beautiful 21-month-old baby understands simple commands and questions but I'm little bit worried that she struggles on talking and getting her meaning across. Instead, she uses sign languages to communicate with us accompanied by few vowel-consonants combinations like, ta-ta-ta-, chu-chu-, mam- mam among others. I'm expecting to hear her "mommy and daddy" and all other gestures in actual words like most toddlers of her age with rapid vocabulary spurt at this stage.

And as normal, I feel guilty spending a little time with my toddler; postponing her dental visits, vaccine schedules, potty training and not concentrating on feeding her healthy foods. Is she lacking on nutrition? I want to discuss this to her doctor but I've never been to her vaccine appointment so I'm stocked.

Not to mention other people asking and comparing her to other children with the same height (which they refer as the same age) with extraordinary speaking development, adding more stress to the situation.

My baby lives in a multi-lingual environment just wait until she become a chatterbox and oh better get ready for every why, what and who questions under the sun.

Irresistible Me Diamond Flat Iron Review: Is it worth it?

I started using flat irons since I was 18 years old (well, that was 12 years ago?) and I’m amazed at how the industry of hair straighteners had come. Man, I think we're missing out on some great deal. Flat iron over the years, We all know the humble beginnings of hair comb or some may call them hair thongs which are made of two rods heated to straighten the hair. I never get to use this one as I was introduced to the second generation of hair straighteners and that was using a standard home clothes iron. Nah, I mean the basic flat irons made with metal plates and few heat settings. Not until the early 2000s when I saw this model with ceramic plates that most people use today. Ceramic is by far the most popular material for this product as it is both inexpensive and actually safer compared to the clothing iron or heating rods back in days. Depending on your hair type, ceramic plates are believed to lock in moisture and protect hair color. But with a lot of this model...

Of course, it takes time and patience to discover her lifelong source of enjoyment. And I know, no two children grow at the same rate or develop an interest in the same things but while other kids at her age further along with vocabu...

Amazing Fun Time in the Bath with Pout Care's Best Products

Hi Mommies, Is shower time always a struggle with your toddler? Here are few tricks I borrowed from other mommies that might help you turn bath time into a super fun and amazing mommy-baby bonding :) When Chloe refuses to take a shower, I try to make it fun by adding bubbles and her favorite toys in the tub. Once she sees me carrying her toys and towel to the shower room, she will follow right away. I even squeeze a little bit of shampoo for extra bubbles and splash it happily just to keep her busy. I sing silly songs, nursery rhymes, play ball games and pretend like we are swimming in a big wide pool. But a few weeks ago I was in a dilemma with Chloe's thinning hair due to hair breakage and hair fall. Her hair tends to get dry so I try to get away from applying shampoo straight to her hair and managed to use a wet washcloth when rinsing instead of directly pouring water to her head. Then, inst...
