Today being Ganesh Chathurthi, I was narrating the story of how Parvathi makes a small boy and how Shiva gets angry at the boy and slains the boy’s head etc etc… instead of telling him that Shiva killed the small boy, I told him that Shiva hurt the boy and the small boy was in…
The First Sleepover
Last week my parents were going to my brother’s place for just a day and they wanted to take Sarath along with them. I was not sure if he would stay overnight without me and his dad but, wanted to try it out. It is only an hour and a half drive to my brother’s…
Telugu Magnets
In an attempt to teach Telugu to Sarath, we only spoke to him in Telugu all the time. When he started talking, I taught him the names of everything in Telugu and English. So, as he grew up, he quickly learned that there are two languages. So, it was easy for him to go back…
Life with two kids
It has been a while since I wrote anything here. Life has changed a lot in the past few months. I was really busy with work before the delivery. In fact, I had a project due on the day I delivered Sanjay. Luckily I had the finished the project a couple of days earlier and…
It’s a Baby Boy!!!
We had a baby boy last week. We named him Sanjay. Myself and the baby are doing good. We are home now. Life is a little hectic right now even though I am not doing anything else but take care of the baby. My mom and dad are here helping us. Sarath is very excited…
Toddler Talk
Kids really say the funniest things. Today, I made chole which is sarath’s favourite. After it was done, I was adding some whipped cream to it. I usually use a can with a sprayer kind of nozzle. So, when I was adding it, Sarath walked into the kitchen and asked: “Why are you adding shaving…
Corn Muffins
Over the weekend, I wanted to make some muffins. These are for the times when I am very hungry (mostly in the evening) and tend to go for all the unhealthy food. Though I am allowed to indulge in food right now, I do not want to put on too much weight. So, I thought…
Toys in the tummy :)
A few weeks back, Sarath was lying on the bed in the morning. He did not want to get up and I was just talking to him. I love those little talks in the morning. He was talking about what a big boy he is now and all the things that big boys can do…
What’s in a name???
Well, for Sarath everything especially when it comes to food! Sarath is very good with food (touchwood). He does not fuss a lot and usually accepts whatever is made at home. He has a general problem with Indian sweets. He used to love them when he was a baby but, not anymore. He also has…
All about my pregnancy….
I have been meaning to write a post for a long time now… but, the little one inside me thinks that I should just eat and sleep all day. I am just so tired everyday. Early on, the morning sickness made me miserable. The past couple of months were okay and I was just waiting…
