something we made that tintin thought was fit to be called a 'car' :)
stuffing cotton in his ears! he wanted me to put some drops, but i chose cotton...he was amused. he never felt cotton so far and kept playing with it last night
this is what we both made with building blocks...tintin placed one of his racing cars between the gaps and one above it...i would chase him with the weird structure that would excite him immensly
this morning ... he said good bye to me holding a kola bag that mansi gave him when he was an infant :)
posing for me in an all happy mood last night

yesterday morning, while offering tintin a ride in baba's car around the house, as the car took a turn towards our building, tintin asked me to not take it inside and instead, pointed it towards the main road ;)
last night while having milk, he was almost full and needed to burp...he told me through gestures that i need to offer his back some support so that he could do that...in some time, i asked him...now burp...like an adult. he let out a LOUD burp and then blushed as i teased him ...

riding his bicycles a month after it got repaired
watching cartoon (amazingly like an adult)...the carton besides him has his cars :)
this is babas car..he sat on the steering and felt like a man as i allowed him to :)

we spent a lovely sunday weekend at baba's place, he was thrilled to have his old cycle repaired...rode it almost the whole day...even pooped on that! he chased zombie throughout and then watched peacocks fly as he remained seated on the cycle in the balcony :)
i made him a car garage out of a carton :) tintin LOVED it....baba made the HOUSE OF CARDS with some old papers and i let tintin touch them and let them fall down./..he loved it..

tintin banged his again!!! against the kitchen platform this morning as he begged me to carry him in my arms :( the ice pack helped yet again!!!

this is how you give KUKUBHAIYA a ride on your bicycle :)

and this is how you drape your ma's dupatta and move around the house :)

he banged his head "again" against the door this morning as he was playing with his dada!!! some ice helped

tintin played building blocks last night at baba's place...arranged them so neatly ..grabbed my handset and clicked him

tintin put the last piece of the panda puzzle...check out the expression of triumph :)

eta notum jama
this is where we spent our two days....the room on the extreme left is where our room was.
i think this is the first pic of tintin actually smiling
this is how you try to throw tantrums when your demands are not met :)..check out his new jeep
engrossed in tv


he loved to pose and his smile said it all

this santoor player comes there almost everyday for a hour and plays the lovely instrument ... the music is so enchanting esp when you listen to it early morning

this is a small fountain. goes unsaid that water attracts tintin so much HE HAD TO POSE HERE :)

posing independently perhaps for the first time :)



the window by the poolside...

we went to udaipur on saturday night..tintin left with his new jeep.. stayed put in room number 19, (last time it was room number 2) and came home on Tuesday wee hours...testimony to a happy vacation....forgot to mention...enroute udaipur, tintin puked...poor thing...not once, but twice. yet he kept lying on me as i covered the mess with my dupatta....he is indeed a darling...then on the day we were to leave, he slipped in the bathroom and banged his head on the glass partition, cried a little :(

that's maaa :)

this is how you move a mosquito (by blowing air on it) !!! ;)

this morning as i was about to leave for work, tintin hugs me and tell me "maa, bhalo theko" (maa, take care)..this is what i have been telling him all these days when i leave for work...it was so amazing to hear him speak like a grown up

last night, we went to baba;s place to drop the car...tintin was thrilled to get three paper helicopters...what excited him the most the fact that the helicopters' blades swirled when they were in flight...

this is how you do a balancing act ;) ... i arranged the hangers and then he posed for me :)
