Splash Splash

We went to a friends house for a brunch, it was a hot day and the children wanted to have a dip in the pool... So the older children accompanied with their daddy's (the mommy werent prepared with their gears)... now seeing all children jump in the pool... my little prince wanted to go to... we had no swimming diaper and this was the first time he would have gone in the pool... but the children pool was pretty shallow so we decided to take him in and what a blast he had.... he took to water like a fish

After some 1 hour in the pool he still didnt want to come back




PS: this post has been lying in my drafts since almost two months as I didnt have the snaps with me... these days he goes to the pool almost everyday like a pro... swimming diaper, tube and the cap in place :)

Emotional Blackmail

is a technique that Ojas seems to have mastered off late...

These days whenever I scold him a little and tell him if u do this mumma wont talk to u... he comes and gives me paari (cups my face with both hands and brings the hands down), gives me a tight hug literally squeezes me with sound and then gives me kisses on left cheek first, then the right cheek and then on the lips...

now tell me how can anyone be angry with him post that

Chocolate

Ojas proved that he is my son... he loves and adores chocolates, he got the taste of chocolate some 3 weeks back when a friend gave him one on the picnic we went to, he loved it we could all see it... but that was it both he and us forgot about it...

But sigh that was till some days back when I was reading him the foods book which has a page on chocolates and he started shouting when he saw that, initially I couldnt understand what he is saying but then realised he was trying to take the chocolate out of the book and eat :) When he couldnt take it out he asked me to and when I couldnt he took the book to every person in the house, asking them to take the chocolate out... lol, this drama went for about 15 mins post which he started crying for chocolate and N had to step out to buy one and give him... I thought these things started after sometime... needless to say that the book has been hidden forever :)

He displayed the same behavior in a party day before when he saw a girl with one, was running behind her saying Choc, choc, choc... ya thats what he calls chocolate

The Garden Story

Ojas loves being outdoors... most of u know by now but my garden is my favorite place currently

every weekend (saturday and sunday both) the following is repeated while mumma-dada water plants...

i put the pipe on the tap

start the tap

start watering

and then start playing with water

aaha the garden story cant be complete without some mud right

i decide that i dont like this pot here and hence move it

and at the end comes my super duper fav... the bath with the hose pipe



Lots of fun right? but sigh after all this which lasts about 1 hour he still refuses to come in and cries for about 10-15 mins after coming in... gosh how do i deal with this?

The Missing Pictures

my independent boy drinking from the sipper

ok so this one has a story, long back I bought this from Tambourine from mothercare long back and once he took it to his massi and she sang the song famous dhapli walle dhapli baja baja and he loved it, no whenever he sees his massi he takes this to her and makes her sing the song over and over again... we are all fed up of the song, if massi is not there then mumma has to sing the song but massi sings it the best... so much so that once massi was not there and i was singing as soon as she came he snatched it from me and gave to massi :) and now he has started playing it himself :)
trying to catch the moon

doing pooja with dadi

last but not the least resting after jumping in my fav place... the colony park

Chandamama Door Ke

I was so reminded of this rhyme today when my little one wanted to catch the moon... Oflate he has started to fall in love with the moon...

Some 10 days back his daadi took him out in the evening to show him moon and since then he wants to see it everyday and one day in between on a no moon night he was really sad and frustrated that he cant see it... he was searching all over the sky and done doing his waving action to represent its not there and do huhn huhn... He refused to come back inside and it was only after 10mins that he was convinced that its really not there and came back in...

And tonight he wanted to catch the moon... poor fellow was trying hard very hard to stretch himself to reach the moon...

my son wants to now reach the moon....

Innovation

See what I have new ways of using a tricycle...

Now tell me if I can do all this then why should try and ride the normal boring way

One Rusk for the mother's pride

however cheesy the tittle may sound but come what may this is the only thing coming to my mind since this incident :)

The other day Ojas was with N when I gave him a rusk to eat and he took a bite and then he started doing something that shocked us...he made N eat some and then came to my godi and gave me some and he followed this cycle... would take one bite, give one to N and then one to me... baby mama is proud of u and loves u a lot

Animal kingdom and me

We went to coorg this weekend... though I will do the full update and pics later, could resist sharing these ones...

Ojas saw some chickens on our friend's estate and just feel in love with them... was running all around trying to catch them... my friends daughter was a little scared but dare devil... naah...

standing on a higher ground watching them

and running after them



And then there was some dogs that were caged because of the two children and he wanted to touch them and wanted them to come out...

Maiden Visit to the colony park

So on Friday I took Ojas to his first visit to the Colony Park and he just fell in love with it...

he went on the swing

on the merry go round



on the slide as its supposed to be

and then on the slide ulta :)

didnt want to be held on the circular slide... i am a big boy i can go on my own

loved playing in the sand


screamed for a second round of merry go round and this time to walk on that while it was going round




Incase u have time check this video of his playing with sand (its a 58 sec video)
:)

He had a great time and just refused to come back from there, pushing my hand away when I was trying to take him off a jhula and screaming when I wanted to bring him back home after 45 mins of fun... hopefully he will enjoy this everyday now

PS: please let me know if u can see the video, this is the first time I have uploaded a video
