Cap!

He used to hate caps once! (I really struggled to make him one in December in North India). But things have changed now...sparsh has become very fond of things that cover one's head.

There is picture from our wedding in our bedroom where Biswarup is wearing a typical "safa" and I have the "pallu" on my head and Sparsh thinks that both of us are wearing caps!

T!

Sparsh likes the concept of sipping a hot liquid from a cup. Whenever our cook makes tea for all adults in the house he will quickly question her "baboo's?"...and is so happy when he is served little milk in a cup :-).

Sparsh's first report card

Sparsh got his first report card and he has passed with flying colours! We attended the first parent-teacher meeting at sparsh's school and the feedback from his teacher is that- "he is a very cute, affectionate, chirpy and intellegent child" :-). can a mother ask for anything more??!! :-)





CNG vs. petrol

Sparsh has a black and yellow auto (toy) and was pretty content with that till he has a green and yellow version with the neighbour's daughter (Pari). Since that day all the CNG autos on road have become Pari and all petrol versions have become Sparsh's.

Ganapati Bappa Morya!

having lived in Pune and bangalore for long...I am in love with the sound of "ganapayi bappa morrya"! Thanks to a small lake close to our place there is a constant rush for ganapati visarjan in the festive time and sparsh has started liking the sound too. Every time I say ganapati bappa...he screama 'Mooyya' :-).

NO! small word...but very powerful! I have been using it very frequently like most mothers do :-), but times have taken a U-turn now and Sparsh has started "NO" ing me! He looks so cute when he raise a small index fingure and says NO with lot of seriousness...muah to hom!

Aaaaato!

My little boy is in love with mechanical modes of transport. The fascination started with Volvo bus and has spread to Copter (helicopter), Vaaaan (van), Aaaaato (autorickshaw), Tactor(tractor), Tuk (truck) and Eep (jeep)! We had fun looking for a toy autorickshaw for him and the next hunt would be for a tractor :-)

Tryyyyy

With the festive season coming up, we have been shopping quite a bit. Sparsh seems to have observed the vanishing act that hubby and I did behind the trial rooms at various malls. On one recent shopping trip he insisted that he would try clothes and wanted to change his clothes alone in the trial room. He pushed me out and I kept rushing back scared that he might lock himself inside. He was looking so cute carrying couple of oversized shirts into the room for tryyyy!

Rhymes!

Maybe it is the good side of going to a playschool. Sparsh has got familiar with some of the common nursery rhymes. he tries to do actions for- "Twinkle-twinkle", "Ringa-ringa roses", "Jhonny jhonny", etc. He also heard some hindi rhymes like- "nani nani suno kahani" and "bandar mama" and has become a big fan of them too!

Ji Ji Ji!

Pichle janam mein shayad punjabi tha! Thats why he calls us as Mum-ji and papa-ji :-). It sounds soooo cute and now I tease him by calling him "babboo-ji".
