27th Month Developmental Updates

Ryan is in the peak of the terrible twos... He has his own character.  Refuses help in doing everything.  When he's helpless, then he will ask for help.
Sigh... Very headache dealing with him.

Weight: approx 13kg
Height: approx 89cm
He's like an adult.. (Unreasonable, impatient, fierce)

Well, most adults can control their emotions.  But all adults can be the above if they choose to.  So I can't blame him if he is displaying the above 3 symptoms.  Since he is just a toddler, he can't control his emotions.

I'm just glad that we are able to get this far with many more years to go.  Currently he's able to perform the below stated.
