Back after a long hiatus

Hi folks,

It took me a long time to figure out 'kamenka' (Camera) actually takes pictures. I carried the 'toolu' (Step Stool) all over the house and figured out that I can actually reach much higher if I stood up on it. Then I was off discovering other things.

One fine day, amma took me to Library and I found spot's books. Now they are my favorites. I want to see the 'shom' (Spot goes to FARM) and sleep with 'good nigh' Spot. I enjoy looking at the face of appa and amma whenever I pick these books. But they are so nice, they read it every time I want it - may be even (!let me count - one, two thee, fo, fi, sik, eigt, ten) ten times every day.

Writing does not do justice to my speech. Hear out how I say my name. Appa was trying to search for me when I was hiding behind his back and he was calling my name. I had to respond and that ensured the resulting 2 minute fun.

I spend most of my time trying to speak, sing and watching good music videos on You tube. Look at Aruna Sairam's Baaje Mrudunga at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBaEqcUBY0E

I will try and have some videos up for next post.

Bum!, Cut & ER Visit

Night came alive on 4-Oct-2008. It was normal playing time on my sofa. I don't know what happened but I did a major somersault and had as I call it, Bum! or a fall. I hit the door stopper and blood started gushing out near the eyes.

We all went to ER and upon first triage doctors (and there was a plastic surgeon too!!) said it was minor and I do not need stitches. We waited for a few hours before getting a prescription for antibacterial cream and returning home.

Here is a closeup of the cut. Boy! wasn't I lucky - there was no injury to my eye.



Other mischievous activities continue. Hide and seek in the closet, wearing appa's ties and happily eating yogurt when appa and amma are not around. Boy I started liking those colorful Yakshagana DVD's appa plays. I will soon have a makeup of my own.

Ciao,

Growing up comes with responsibilities

Check this out folks.  I have been given special responsibilities to be completed every day.  I clean the restroom and wash my clothes.  My special role as 'gunk' cleaner specialist also comes handy sometimes.
