First Days At Playschool

The last couple of weeks have been so so chaotic. #:-S

D has finally started with his playschool, but my problems only seem to be beginning. Yes, I need all the luck that was bestowed upon me in the last post :-S

The first week they had a mother-toddler session to familiarise the child with the school and teachers, mommy in tow. And guess what? The initial two days D just wouldn't let go of me! He insisted that I only carry him while all the activities were going on. In fact he was the only kid who was crying! :-O

Just Randomness

Hello People,

Anyone still around?

I know I know I have been away from the blogging (and virtual) world since ages....but now I am back!
For better or worse? Never mind :)

I have been super unorganised busy in the real world, but lets not even get into those details :).

In other news, D's language and vocabulary skills have been improving by leaps and bounds. He talks nineteen to a dozen, repeating every single thing that is spoken around him. This has prompted our friends to nickname him The Talking Tom!!!

A Letter To My Baby

Warning: Super long post ahead. Read at your on risk!!!

Dear D,

Congratulations Baby, you have achieved yet another milestone in your eventful life. You turned 2 on 31st March 2014 and what a journey it has been thus far....

I still remember the day, seven weeks before you were born, a sonography revealed that you had the cord around your neck. I was in despair. Until then, I had heard about quite a few instances of the cord around the baby's neck and none of them reassuring. For months, I was told to sleep, get up and turn in a particular position to avoid this problem, none of them endorsed by doctors of course. And here I was, with this terrible report in my hand. The gynaec though was totally nonchalant.

Shopping With The Kids

I am kind of terrified by the idea of taking along kids to the supermarket.
I have seen it happening to other parents....turn away for a moment and *crash!!!* a jar of expensive coffee lies shattered on the floor! Needless to say you have to pay up.

Temper Tantrums - Mine, Not The Baby's!

D saw the muesli jar in the kitchen and asked me for some. He likes to eat it just like that. I put some in a bowl and gave it to him. D ate some and then turned the bowl upside down, scattering the remaining muesli on the floor. I told him this was not right and that he should have returned the bowl back to me if he didn't want to eat anymore. D just kept quite and looked at me as I proceeded to clean up the floor.

Lets Pack Up

The room is littered with toys to the extent that there is no way you can put your foot down without stepping on to something and going...OUCH!!!

Games We Play - Supermarket

Like most kids, D gets bored of his toys quite easily. So yours truly needs to invent new games every now and then. After a few trips to the market (with D) recently, I came up this new game :)
