Habitual Creature
Human are habitual creature. We go to the same place to eat and order the same food. We go to the regular hangout and hang around with the same group of friends. Once a while, we explore new places but would still go back to the same old place.
Heidi and Oliver constantly remind us that we are a madeup of our own habits. Heidi wakes up every morning and would walk into the bathroom, point at her toothbrush and brush her teeth. When we return home every evening, she would walk into the bathroom, climb the stool and wash her hands. We would rush to her to prevent her from falling from the stool, although she has no problem with climbing, and she think she can climb down without falling. Sometimes, when we carried a sleepy Heidi to school without her shoes on, she wakes up pointing to her feet and I imagine if she can vocalise it, it will be "Mummy, you forget my shoes again. I want my shoes." Too late, we can't go back home, need to enter the ERP gantry before 8am. Rushing every morning before the clock strikes 8 is an old habit that is so difficult to break. There goes, $1 for Gahmen for being late; $3 for Gahmen for being 5 min late.

17 months and vocalising more words
Besides her favourite words "I want", Heidi says :
- ma ma
- papa
- yes
- bye
And most of the time, Heidi can actually understand what we are trying to tell her. During CNY, I asked her to show papa her new year dress which she put on, she walked to the room and show to Boon Heng. So clever = )
