Little milestones

Have not been posting... real busy?! Actually is - by the time I have the time of my own, it is usually late and I am very tired and too lazy to post.
Anyway, this post is to remind hubby and myself what our darling is capable of doing nowadays :)
Joian is now able to decide what he wants.  Initially everything would be a 'No'.  Then one day, we just taught him to say 'Yes', and from then onwards, he would say 'Yes' to the things he wants. Then one day (dunno which day), at my MIL's place, I heard him saying 'I don't want', and now is always 'don't want' when he really doesn't want.
Whenever he is in the car, or walking anyplace near the road or in the car park (as long as he sees vehicles), he would identify the vehicles - lorry, taxi, van, bus, car, motorbike and bicycle... I was so amazed by his recognition of the various types of taxi, be it blue, red, yellow, silver etc... As for bus, initially he identified mini bus as van, so I told him that that is also a bus, but it is a small bus. Again I was amazed, cos he remembers that, and is now able to recognise those small school buses as buses.
When Joian first stacked his cubes, he was so excited and kept clapping his hands whenever he finished stacking. Today he was holding his 4 favourite blocks, which are cuboids. He was trying to stack them on their smaller faces, rather than the bigger faces. Hence hubby told him that it was not possible for him to stack in that manner (as it requires steadiness and balance). However, Joian was able to stack 3 of them together, and he was so happy, so were we :)
His favourite toys, shows and books - Thomas the train and his friends. He could identify Thomas, Edward, Henry, Gordon, Percy, James, Bertie, Annie, Clarabel, Bert, Arry, Mike...
