Sweetest Darling (பாசக்காரி) -1

I love you - This is the affectionate sentence we talk to her. Thanks to her Daddy for teaching this wonderful words to her and that makes wonder on ourselves everyday. I always wanted to build warm and close attachments with my daughter and of course that is the basis for every relationship. Even though I go for work, I always make sure that she does not miss me. In turn our sweet pie returns with her unconditional love always.I cherish every cuddling moment with her and when she tells that three words with the extra long hugs and tight kisses, I feel a divine vibration. I swear!

Our bed time is always wonderful except few times when she is cranky! Otherwise we like to talk, like to tell Kakka stories or we simply fight for catching my hair! :-( She is habituated for holding my hair when she sleeps, when she cries and sometimes when she got bored with her toys. Yeah, It is really irritating me sometimes, but I could not find anyways to solve this. 

Sometimes If I act like crying and saying that I want that and this, she comes close to me by clapping her hands, hugs, pat me on her shoulders and tells "Amma, mudi pidchiko, Azhathe!". And sometimes she likes to sing lullaby also for me and Though she gives me a choice of two, I can not choose the other, she likes to sing whichever she is comfortable with.

And whenever we say something like, oh! I have headache or my leg is paining, she will come and massage. And the ultimate thing is, she will say, "Appa thungunga, thungina sariya poidum". Yeah, she repeats what we tell her! Paasakkari!

Summer outfit!

I use to give bath in the evening / night before she goes to sleep. I started this habit when she was 2 months old and still I'm continuing it. As summer started here, we cannot stay inside the house and we could feel the hot air even inside the house. So we march out to the kids park in the evening to get some fresh air. And Thamizhini used to play swing and Duck there. She would be sweating like anything, hence the evening bath these days makes her happy and makes herself feel fresh.

We started using A/c in the room and changed her night outfit. Look at the pictures below for how she is dressed up in the night to go to sleep.

I want to sleep...

She does not see any differences on her dress but I feel happy to see her in this dresses and she some what looks lean and lengthy :-)

Naan valarndhutennnnn....

I bought around 3 colors and took snaps every night to post this :P

My Days Schedule

Ok, Today is my day. I gave rest to Amma for writing about me. Yes, I'm writing about myself and going to write what I do whole day.

My day starts around 7:30a.m, even though I would like to get up early, my mom makes me to sleep even after that, as she wants to sleep for some more time daily. But somehow I try to get up and disturb her, so that she will get me out of the bed room. Then there starts my day's routine. After chuchu and poopy, I will play for sometime, then comes my breakfast. it will be either Raagi porridge or Idly. After breakfast, my mom makes me to get bath, she used to think that should not give bath soon after food (not very soon, she gives 20 mins time). But if she makes late on that, then she has to run to office. If it is before food, then i eat in that way, that half of my food will be on my neck and legs.

Have to tell about bath: Bathing is a tedious task and I don't like that at all. But not everyday, I would like sometimes and sometimes not. It is fully depends on my mood and depends on the days, be'coz weekly three days, she gives me oil bath. That I really do not like, as it takes longer time compared to easy bath(?) as she puts me on the mate and give massages. But I would like to play all the time as this oil bath eats out my morning play time. If I cry more while bathing, my mom makes me to play on the water some time, see the video how I used to play.

After bathing, there comes next like applying lotion, powder and pottu. These are all very big things for me and I don't like at all. But somehow amma does all things and I hate one thing is that she does not care my cry. You can see in the video that how many are around me when I'm getting dressed :P hmm.. that much troublesome baby I'm ;-)

After all these, I will sleep for some time in my thuli. I have to make a note on one thing here, that inspite of my interest, they put me in thuli and makes me to sleep. I will wake after 1 or 1.30hrs and i will take my lunch, yeah It is not a great meal, even though I would like to have. It is just rice and dal :P After food, I will just play for some more time, then I will take afternoon nap. Everyone at home, will be taking some rest in that time i hope.

After nap, I will drink juice and eat apple / banana. Then we march to the park to play. There are lot many kids playing around and I used to play on swing and duck as of now. I could see lot of akka and annas are playing and I know once I'm grown up, I will play with them. Hmm.. this is how my evening time is passing now days.

I will be sweating like anything after coming from park, so amma will generally give bath in night too. This one I like bo'coz it is really a easy bath as just soap, nothing else (no kadalai maavu and other powders). I will get ready to sleep after dinner. :-) Looks easy? No.. I don't leave it as so easy. In the bed, I will simply move(?) here and there, then amma has to see very carefully as I will just move and hit my head in the wall as our bed is placed beside the wall. If I'm more naughty, then she will put me on the crib to play as the crib will be closed on all sides, she need not worry. I get tired after half an hour to one hour play, then only I will go to sleep. I could here your gasping sound, as some of you will be experienced with your kids and some of them might be getting ready for their turn after reading this.

Gearing up to sleep - Her Crib

Thanks Sakthi Athai for this wonderful bumpers :-) - Thamizhini

I should say that she enjoyed this by seeing first time, when we put her on the crib, she just turns left and right, and stares at the design. And we struggled a lot to get this pose from her. Somehow we are decorating her crib by n by.

Friday night party -ku polama?

Oops! I don't want my child to become a software engineer now only. Thinking, if im going insane, but I'm very serious. Im just following her from 2 to 3 fridays and it is just a true thing that she is not sleeping on friday nights. She sleeps only after 2 and waking up only after 11am on Saturday!

Yes, got it, Is n't it? We were doing the same thing before Thamizhini born and now she follows the same! But we have not gone to any parties on friday night yet :D . I must admit that I'm getting a stretch of 10 hrs sleep, but i have to get up every 3 to 4 hrs to feed her.

Party @ home?

Hmm.. Somehow i have to train her to sleep in time, but don't know how. And of course, I think she is too small for sleep training!

So many beds for her!!!

It seems like I need some more time to rest myself. So finding many ways to make the baby sleep :-D

Her Thottil (Thuli): She enjoys the rocking style of her Dad! He does that like when we do for Aadi 18 (aadi nombi). and now she used to for this...

In her thottil

Her Crib: Looks empty! Need to fill with all the stuffs like pillows, side pillows, blanket and other accessories, then only we can say a complete crib!!! Hmm.. but not going to do that now.. It costs more :-D

Crib

 And sometimes she likes to sleep in hands and of course we should rock her!!!
