Speech development

Yes, abit late, he at last knows how to clap

He seems to understand more when we speak to him. Recent development is the ability to point and say "There!" when asked where certain things are. For example when asked "where are your fingers?", the would point his right index finger to his fingers on his left hand and say "There!". He would also do the same when directing us to the place we wants to go (when being carried)

Other words that he understands, where he would point to and say "There!" are;

-Daddy (he pronounces it as "Ta-ti", when calling out to SK. The ONLY word he is uttering now that makes sense other than "There")
-Toes
-Nose
-Ducky
-Mummy
-Tree
-Music
-Nan-nan (milk)
-Tele

Phrases that he understands

- "Put it in..."/"Take it out.."
-"Come on, let's go then"
-"Drink water"
-"Go walk-walk"
-"Dancing"
-"Clap-clap hand"

BUT he still has difficulty adhering to the simple "NO". He would just play dumb and continue his actions.
