Peanut completed 6 months yesterday..She is 0.5yrs now..Gosh time just flies..Even though I am happy, there is this painful pinch deep within that time is flying and I still haven't got enough of her..Peanut is amazing..She has her own character now. She tries to sit down. She is so busy rolling and trying to sit and falling off and screaming and laughing at her own antics. You could sit beside her all day and just laugh..She breaks into hysterical laughter when I pull the sheet off her face! That just delights Mama!! Amma(MIL) keeps scolding me for making her laugh like this...Says that she will lose all her weight ;)
As a bday treat, I fed her boiled carrots yesterday..Hehehe...devilish isnt it?? well she liked the first few bites and then she started spitting it out..Lets see if she will have it today..I need to train her to eat veggies...
She sleeps like an angel in the night somedays. Today I woke up half an hour earlier than what my alarm is set to. And I find her sleeping on her tummy.. I turn her over and she moans in her sleep. After a lot of play and fuss she slept like a log through the night from 11pm-8am..Amazing!!! She keeps rolling back on her tummy in her sleep..Sometimes I find her stuck trying to get into her sitting position..Its so adorable..When I feed her and she has had enough, she turns to the other side(towards her Dad) and buries her sweet face in her small pillow.I could eat her up!! She is yummilicious..I am so happy I decided to keep her here in Bng rather than send her off to my Mom's place..I would have missed all these beautiful moments and I would have never been able to forgive myself for that!
Gosh I will miss all this when I travel. Yesterday DH told me not to go. I wish I didnt have to...But I must to get some money..I will miss my amazing and lovely family..!!
We booked our flat on Sunday 27th June,2010....Peanut became hyper when we got into the flat...Its a nice one and I have great ideas of designing it...Not sure how we will finance it. And Peanut is growng fast.. Petrol and Gas prices are zooming!! I think I will teach Peanut at home till 1st Standard.;) That's how my Mom did it too..I was a clever student when I joined my school in 1st Std.Not boasting but a fact..My eng teacher was amazed I could read a whole chapter without any interruption or mistake.. I can never forget that moment. Its permanently etched in my memory..My first proud moment..And I owe that to my Mom!!

Messy mom and baby!!
I have always taken pride in being a neat and clean mom who keeps my baby clean and is never spotted as a shabby mom around...Well today was one such odd day where my principles failed!!
I was WFH and I gave peanut a bath at 4. She was crying to be taken out after her bath..She screamt when I ran back into the apartment to get my walking slippers..I have never seen her so upset about being inside the four suffocating walls of an apartment. Anyhow, I was just rushing down and I never expected to see anyone..I never see anyone around normally..Its always just me and Peanut...Seeing the flowers, the leaves, the butterflies, the cars and bikes..
Well today I jump in front of another mom who was strolling with a baby almost as old as peanut.Well I seized the opportunity to bond with another mom and I got myself introduced...All of a sudden I realize that my T-shirt has two huge turmeric stains to it..(Thanks to leaning over the stove to take her bottle..There was oil on the stove counter)...I started feeling conscious and then all of a sudden Peanut starts drooling...She starts drooling and screaming like crazy..It was as though she's been released from jail..Gosh embarassing!! The other baby was shocked and just stared at peanut silently...Her dress is completely wet by now with drool...Suddenly from no where another mom appears..She looks at me from head to toe..Grrrrrr.......I just want to run away...After 5-10 minutes of talk..I head towards the lift...I look down at my T-shirt and realise how prominent the stain is..As I wait for the lift to come down, I look at my face reflected on the lift door..DAMNNNNNN.....My hair was a messs......Gosh, I blushed beetroot red and just run back home!!
Grrrr...what an embarassing day!!!Best part is I'm least interested in dressing up after peanut came...I hope I go back to normal soon..I need a new wardrobe..Nothing fits me anymore. I wish we had Garage Sales in India.. I have to check my eye power and I dont feel like doing even that!! even though there is an optical shop right outside my apartment..Effects of a baby on a mom!!
