Update

An update on Mei Mei’s progress. She had yet another developmental assessment Wednesday. I told the lady Mei-Mei over stimulates easily, and doesn’t like to be touched. She kept hugging Mei-Mei and this made Mei-Mei freak out and withdraw grrrr. Mei-Mei was to freaked out to show what she could do. The gal meant well, but was young, and didn’t get attachment issues, sigh. I think she put Mei-Mei as more delayed than I think she is.
Mei-Mei has picked up so much! She is walking at least half the time and can now take 5-6 steps in a row. She has learned to play “patty cake” at least the patty part. She can say Je Je (Cantonese for big sister) Papa, and more. The bad news is she doesn’t say them in context, just repeat them. The sound she does make spontaneously and in context, when she wants to play, is a lion’s roar. :-) Baby Bug loves to play lion and Mei Mei has picked up on that. It is the cutest thing ever to see them growl at each other. They both really adore each other, this thrills me no end.
