Halloween Experience

This Halloween I was coming from my guitar class. I knocked on Ryker's door, expecting him to open the door but he was not there. So my mum dressed me and she told me that I was going to knock on some people's door. And so we went up the hill but we bumped into Ryker. He said he was there to see if I was coming.

It was the biggest miracle in my life ! So, my mum went home and I went with Ryker to where his mum was. We went all the  way to co-op super store. After that we went down a lane. Well that was a very confusing because it led to another lane. Then finally we reached some where near Shreya's house. On the way home, we saw two motorbikes in the little park which I think is illegal. While Ryker's mum phone the police, me and Ryker went to my house.

Diwali 2016

This post is written by Amogh himself !

Today and yesterday is Diwali !!!!!!!!

Yesterday a few of my friends came to my house. First, my dad lit a few rockets which scared me half deaf! Next all my friends lit a few fountains while I sat down. Then my mum said, I have to light a fountain. So I went to light a fountain. I lit the fountain with fear but it was a very good one !

Trip to Norwich

It was great to see my blog reviving again. We have been to Norwich for Chinu's birthday. Do not know Chinu? Aare its Avni, Sourabh chacha's daugher. I was really excited to go there and meet her as I have been watching her photos from their last trip to Milton Keynes. I was also excitied to see my place of birth and was looking forward to Oasis party to meet new friends and see the place where ma papa gave party before I even arrived :)

Anyways I really enjoyed in Norwich with lots of pamper from Chacha and Nidhi Chachi and later in the party from lots of new friends. I really enjoyed playing with all new friends and they took great care of me. I also met Kathy Aunty and Paul and Tania Aunty and Steve uncle plus lots of people I do not even remember now. Below are some pics from the party:









I wore shirt and tie in Vijay's Macha style and enjoyed a lot with him. I always enjoy travelling and train journeys are my favourite. I can hardly stay at one place while travelling and want to talk to everyone in the train.

I am becoming naughty now a days and also learnt how to get angry if I am not allowed to do the way I want. But I think like any other kid I need to listen to ma papa more often than I want to :)

More later about my experience in MK and trip to Swindon !

15th Month

I now confidently walk, actually run and sometimes fly in the air due to my speed. J Ma says that at times I have my legs in the air for a fraction of a second. I get very excited about walking, you see. I enjoy playing at nursery and have made friends with many. Whoever comes to pick me or drop me gets a warm greeting from my friends. I have got used to dada/dadi dropping me to the nursery. I give them a hi-five and wave them good bye after which they leave. But I won’t do this with ma or papa. If they come do drop me, I feel bad and always cry, especially when ma drops me, I can’t hold back my tears. It is extremely good when ma or papa picks me up though.

Navaratri was good. Everyday, there would be aarti and I enjoyed being a part of it.
Dada dadi are now going to go back, I guess. I sense something happening around me and the packing and talking have changed. Dada/dadi are going to see bua and then go to Jodhpur for Deepavali.

Ma, papa and I went to South-end-on-sea for the weekend and we had a good time. I enjoyed my first rides in the Adventure Island. That was really good. I liked just walking around the adventure park as it was so colourful, moving and having lots of kids around. I loved it. It was short trip though.

I felt very bad when they left. It has started getting dark early and with signs of me and ma at home for a long time till papa returned made me really scary. I just cringed to ma all the time till papa came home. He started work the same week as dada/dadi left and his first week was loooong, really long. Finally, doddamma came to my rescue. Everyone thought that I would not remember her. I thought, too. After she entered the house, I felt something familiar about her and in five minutes I was thinking that I knew her. It took just one night to get close to her to everyone’s surprise.

Now, I don’t like to go to the nursery. I have started playing around when ma had to take me to the nursery. I enjoy the place once left, but before I go, I make a lot of ruckus to avoid going to nursery.

I am so looking forward to having deepavali. Ma and papa had their former colleagues come home during the weekend. It was good as the house was full with kids and uncles and aunties. I was baffled but soon gained composure and started playing with them.

I have become confident flyer and like to fly (walk as I call it) everywhere. Ma enjoys autumn and she ensures I enjoy it, too. I just like the noise of the dry leaves in the park. It is sooo nice though my shoes get dirty. I have made friends with the squirrels, ducks and many birds in the park, too.

Doddamma has taught me to say how a tiger makes noise. Doddamma has bought me a tiger mask and I recognise it, easily. I have become a big boy now and I can recognise so many things, understand what ma and papa say. Ma thinks I can understand 3 languages easily. I’m not sure what it means though.

I like to see ma’s purse and count for changes. I know where she keeps all her change and I have learnt to take them out. She’s now become smart and keeps the change inside her purse. Nevertheless, I carry her purse and go around, even though it is a little heavy for me.
I love to walk in the park, on the road or in the city centre. People trick me to walk for 10 minutes and then put me back to buggy because I wander around one place when free and ma papa think that they have lots to do.

Deepavali has come and I am enjoying the lights inside the house and the sparklers. Plus a lot of eateries ma has cooked for the festival. I am in new dresses and enjoying going out with ma and doddamma and sometimes papa.

14th Month

I have now started liking to walk. I take few baby steps and fall off. Everyone at home encourages me to walk. The other day, I walked for long holding ma’s hands towards park. I am becoming a confident young man, you see!

As usual, my life has been busy adjusting to dada dadi and going around London every weekend. Along with the travelling, I get to see new places and talk to people on train or anywhere. The weekend travel does tire me a lot.

I got my first molar and due to that I was very ill for two weeks. When I was about to recover, I started getting another one. I keep biting ma really hard. I had fever for few days and one day was rushed to emergency due to very high temperature. Ma and papa panicked when they learned that I had 41 degrees temperature. It was finally down to ear infection and I recovered in two weeks.

Good thing was papa was home for almost a month and that gave me nice time to bond with him. Ma was also having good time taking time off whenever I needed and working from home.
I am becoming too naughty, everyone says. I nod my head for everything I don’t want and point to everything I want. I get pampered by dada and dadi. Dadi gives me chocolate and namkeen mixtures which I like a lot. Everyone hides all savoury stuff from me because I remember where they are kept and point them to that location, whenever I remember or see it.

I feed the ducks and birds in the park, and enjoy going to park. Ma and papa do take me out most of the days. I sometimes get to swing and sometimes not. I know the location of swings and ducks and direct me to take to those places.

I forgot to tell you that I was dressed as little Krishna at the Mahalakshmi temple, East Ham. See it to believe it:

10-13th Month

All blame goes to Ma for not writing about me. I have been very busy. Papa went to India leaving me, ma and doddamma in London. Though I missed papa initially, later I forgot and started enjoying with doddamma and ma. I also started going to the nursery once/twice a week, in preparation to welcome dada/dadi.

Nursery
It was very difficult initially to adjust in the nursery because I would be there only for a short while. It was an all new experience. I didn’t like being away from doddamma, at all. She would play with me, sing to me and take me to park for hours. I missed all that. But, once I started going regularly in July (sometime before my first birthday), I started liking the place. I have new friends now and I like Lindsay who takes care of me.

10th Month
Though, I have been busy adjusting to London, Ma working and Papa in Norwich, it has been good too. I like going to the park and swinging for hours. Ma and doddamma took me for long walks, busy and colourful Ilford streets, fruits everywhere etc have been very interesting. I have been making serious efforts to stand on my own. I like to crawl as fast as possible and outpace ma or anyone for that matter. I like to play hide n seek in different rooms. Steve uncle bought me a nice toy and I liked it very much. I cut one more teeth below.

11th Month
Off! The heat has been crazy. I got rashes all over and was itching. I cut one more teeth have now got 4 of them. Teething is really hard work giving hard time to everyone including myself. Then, papa came along with dada/dadi. It took some time for me to understand what was happening. Though I recognized papa after a month’s time, I took some time to get close to him. Days were busy with doddamma getting ready to back and dada/dadi adjusting to new place and on top of it, myself adjusting to all these changes. Ma took me and doddamma out for a couple of places before doddamma was due to go back. I liked the Trafalgar Square and Covent Garden area. They were so lovely. I like to talk to anyone who looks at me though I shy a bit, I must talk. Ma, ba, da, la, pa are all the words in my language which is growing by day. Isn’t it musical? ;)
I started going to fulltime nursery. But I liked papa being home, too. I finally stood up on my own and was so happy doing it again and again. I would stand up, fall and then turn and stand up again, going on in circles till I got tired. That was exciting! I uttered my first complex word – “Light”, I would say “ight” and point to the light. I would go on showing my new found intelligence, to all. ;)

12th month
Soon, I was going to complete 1 year. I am now a big boy! I have been changing quickly and trying to understand a lot. I have started saying yes no, by nodding my head. I point my finger like Ambedkar, to what I want and clearly indicating.
Doddamma got me a trike and I like to go on in it. It is my favourite thing now. My Birthday was celebrated nicely. Ma baked cakes and muffins. Though not many could come, the house was pretty full. Gary gifted me a cricket bat and ball. I like to hold the bat, but need some support to hold myself with bat. J I like the Noah’s ark with various animals making various sounds. I liked the party, though I started feeling a little sleepy then. Later, I slept for a while and replenished my energy store to play with everyone. Finally, when the day ended, I didn’t like them going home. We celebrated dada/dadi’s anniversary, then my birthday and then dadi’s birthday.

13th Month
We took dada/dadi to Tower Hill and Canary Wharf. It was wonderful. We have been going around somewhere or the other every week. Anu aunty came to see me and I liked to play with her all the time. I did the same thing when Sourach chacha, Nidhi chachi and Avni came. I initially liked having Avni around, but when I started realising that I had to share the limelight with her, I didn’t like it. L I should get in terms with it. I am working on it. I have started taking few steps occasionally. I like going out to the park everyday with ma/papa and dada/dadi. I like to play with the ball, walk holding ma’s hands and feeding ducks, birds and squirrels. I know what are ducks, birds, tiger (the little doggy on the fridge) and so many. I can now say remote, and duck easily. My favourite thing is to watch the flights fly and show it to everyone if they have missed watching it. Now, I know the way to the park and inform everyone to take me to the park in the evening. I can recognize our house, the way to park from various locations. I am very naughty at times and play with ma. I have learnt to fake cry and fool others to think that ma is troubling me.



Some photos

7th to 9th Month (February -March)

Things have been slow. I slowly got used to the UK winter after being in India. Mom would try and take me outside everyday for a walk around the city center, and sometimes to the library. I liked going to the library and seeing colorful books on display. I have been very active and trying to flex my body.

We had many gatherings too. Anu aunty had come to see me. Vijay and Vinayak chacha would come on Fridays or weekends. Suresh uncle and Joy auntie would come with Pranaya. Jiji auntie would come with Alyzza and Josh and we would go out for a walk. Tania auntie would try to meet us every week. Oh! days have been very busy.

Monday is the most difficult day for me after the joyful, fun packed weekends. I would clinge to ma and not get down at all.

We celebrated papa's birthday with a lot of fervor as we both share the same day and Doddamma came to help me from India. Ma was supposed to join work but something happened and she was home for long time. Needless to say, I liked it. I started enjoying dodda mma's company. We would get dressed up and go out most of the days. Every Wednesday, would go to Tiny Tots session in the library and sing rhymes with other kids. Ma was busy going around, but I still had good company so it was nice. :)

I have been poorly for sometime as I was trying to cut a tooth. I liked to cut Ma's chin and jaws as it served perfect for my mouth. There was sometime when everyone at home was sick - Ma, doddamma, me, and sometimes papa. It took quite sometime for me to get well. I spread conjunctivitis to all and it was doing round and round.


Meanwhile we were preparing to shift from Norwich. Initially we were not sure where to, but later it was decided that we would move to London. Everyone was busy winding down at Norwich, as the decision came late, and on top of it, I demanded that everyone played with me.

We moved to a flat in London and we were left high n dry as the flat was not cleaned properly. It took more than 3 weeks to settle down.

Activities
I learnt to crawl and liked playing peek a boo. I think everyone thinks that I crawl really fast. Ma took long time to get me to crawl. I love to sing aloud, nobody understands what I sing, but I enjoy. If anyone joins me while I sing, I get encouraged and sing(scream) more. I eat a variety of fruits and veggies. I specially like it when doddamma gives me cucumber sticks or rounds. If it is a ring, I like to pierce my finger in the center of the cucumber and hold it in my tiny hand. I don't like carrot though. It is very hard.

Whatever fruit is offerred to me, I like to get a bigger peice than my mouth can hold! So, I try to open my mouth as wide as possible and fill in the fruit and then throw it as I cannot close my mouth to hold it.

I like to talk to people and see myself in the mirror. I think that there's someone at the opposite side. I specially like it when ma is with me in front of the mirror. I like to pick everything on the floor. People think that I have microscopic eyes, but they don't know that I just have the normal ones.

I like to share a cuppa tea with ma or papa, specially when it is mint tea. I can smell it. I have a favorite cup blue colored flowery print all over. It tastes special to have tea in it. I like to fit my mouth and eventually my face inside the cup to get a sip. And I have made it a custom to have tea with everyone.

I like to eat my dinner on the table with everyone. Isn't it really nice to share the dinner with everyone, and be able to put my fingers into every possible plate that is in my reach as well as out of my reach.

I have learnt to sit in the swing and love it when it is swinged. I like the whole park thing. A little sunshine of the late winter and spring adds more to my lively day.

November - January (4th - 6th Month)

Air travel
I finally got to go to India. I liked the beautiful colors and lights of Christmas trees in the airport. I was initially so energetic about the travel, seeing lights all over, and then the experience of the take off, landing etc. It was completely action packed for me.

I got a nice companion who just days older than me, sitting next to me. I liked to talk to him, but he was in his own world. I was given a warm welcome and some toys, I loved it.

By the time, we reached Dubai and were to take off, my energy started draining and I wanted to get out soon. Finally, we reached Bangalore, unaware of the action to come in few days. I got a wonderful welcome at Goutham Mama's place. He, Satya atte and dodda together had decorated a room for my arrival with teddy's and toys and little net, and ballons. It was sooo cute. My mother didn't take a picture of it. She should have taken one, I will excuse her because they were sleepy too.

Naming Ceremony
The day slowly unfolded as Mama was planning for a naming ceremony for me and started inviting people, arranging the location and dates and so on. As papa spoke to dadaji, he heard that Bua was going to undergo ceaserean the same day. (Bua delivered a baby boy, named Darsh midday. )Then, there were confusions, and the plan for my naming ceremony was cancelled. Again a round of phone calls. By evening, after some bric-brac, it was decided to continue with the naming ceremony on Sunday and then reach Jodhpur on Monday. Again, phone calls were made.

Despite all odds, my naming ceremony was fine and many people gathered. As usual I loved the attention given to me by so many granny's, aunties and cousins. I didn't find anyone very close to me though. :) I managed to get through the ritual and be happy despite all the new things and surroundings.

Jodhpur, Mundan
Monday early morning we left to Jodhpur to see Dada, Dadi and Bua. I was flanked by the crowd in Jodhpur. I met Dada, Dadi for the first time. And even Floppy was interested in me. We went and saw bua and Darsh. Days started unfolding and due to the heat, I got rashes all over. After 11 days, dadaji arranged for a havan in his house, and the same day was decided to have the Mundan ritual, so that later my head can be shaved off. I liked everything about the havan, but was scared to go to the barber's hand where he cut a tiny bit of my hair. There was a party arranged and I liked going to different people.

New Delhi
Soon, papa was to go back to UK, leaving me n mom at Jodhpur. We went with him to New Delhi to see Lovely mausi and Gagan mausa. I liked to be with them. Bala naani gave me a nice winter dress. I was very happy to be with all of them. Lovely mausi gave me a nice jacket.

Udupi/Mangalore
After coming back to Bangalore, I was taken to Udupi, Mangalore, my mothers native town. I enjoyed being driven in the car, went to Subramanya, then Prema dodda's house, and then to Kavita atte's house. Next morning after visiting many temples and Krishna matha in Udupi, we went to Maddu maamajja's house and then to Baby dodda's. I was welcomed nicely and everyone loved to see me there. I also enjoyed the cats, cows and the village surroundings. Soon we came back to Bangalore.

Bangalore
We stayed in Bangalore sometimes in our house in HSR and sometimes in Maama's place. We went to Hema periyamma's house and I loved being there. I was given traditional oil bath, which was new to me and was scared of it. I met many some friends of my parents like Nimmi auntie, Suganthi auntie, Lokesh uncle, Srini uncle, Kami uncle etc. I could not meet many of them though.

At this side, papa was alone battering the cold weather of UK. I soon came back to Norwich on January 14th. We had a small celebration on Sankranthi where different things were poured on me. Vijay macha and Vinayak chacha came to see me.


Activities
I have started to move forward on my tummy and I have taken a liking to doing that.

2nd Month

My Second month has been a wonderful time. I have started becoming more aware of the happenings around me. World looks more beautiful and colorful. I am more alert and can recognize ma and follow her. Sometimes I do that with papa and doddamma, as well.


Ramesh Mama's arrival
During my 10th week, my Ramesh mama(ma's brother) and Satya atte(his wife) came to see me from Bangalore, India. I was eagerly waiting for their arrival. I was pampered by mama and atte. Mama was overjoyed to see me, (I would here him often on skype) and so was I. Ma was scared that I would be spoilt while they were with us, and it became true that I was literally spoilt. I got lot of clothes from them. Ma liked a lot of them.

First day after they arrived, we went around Norwich city center. Next day we went to Wroxham, where I enjoyed the boat ride and the riverside walk. While they were busy going to London and Cambridge, I was going through my daily routine. The time mama had come to Norwich, it was the festival of Navaratri - a festival that goes on for 9 days and culminating with Vijaya dashami on the 10th day.


Anna Prashana
My dada and dadi had told papa that on the 8th day(ashtami) I was supposed to be formally introduced with Solid foods and it was the right of dadaji to do so. As dadaji was not here, anyone older than papa could have done this apart from my mama and atte. Papa requested Dave if he would do this and Dave happily obliged. I got the first taste of the kheer/pudding. Later, doddamma and papa also let me taste the kheer. I wanted mama & atte to do that but I guess everyone was busy in their own world talking and discussing matters that are too difficult for me to understand.

Ma put the anklets sent by Hema. She was looking for other ornaments gifted by mama, but she couldn't find them on time. So sad. :( I don't know if I would have enjoyed too many ornaments at that time, but it would have been good to be formally given by mama.

I had a couple of friends come as well. I particularly liked Austin, Steve's son, who is just 9 days older than me. Also, Aliza and Joshua were good to me. Ma, papa and I had a good photo session with doddamma, mama, and atte. I tried to give the best poses possible.

Dada dadi have sent me lots of clothes and dadi has sent me a sweater, cap and socks which she knit herself. It is very good.

The days with mama, quickly passed and the day they were supposed to leave, came running. I was not knowing what it would mean to miss someone. I missed all of them, specially doddamma, as she went back to India along with them. I was looking for her everywhere and waiting to hear her voice. Soon after they left I had a bad cold for a week and combined with the absence of 3 people, it was worse. Soon things started getting better.

Immunisations
I also had my 2nd set of immunisations around 12th week and slept for 2 hour continuously in the day(which I have hardly done so far). Ma took me to a post natal session where I enjoyed seeing many other friends of my age group. The place was colorful and lively.

Vijay Chacha
Vijay chacha came back to Norwich on work, and along with Vinayak chacha came to see me before he went to office. I enjoyed playing with him, though I was doubtful in the beginning.


Whitlingham Country park
During the weekend, I was taken to the Whitlingham Country park. I was sleeping most of the time, but when I woke up, I really loved the water and the autumn colors ma was trying to show me. I suppose papa clicked some good photographs of mine.

Paul & Tania
Paul and Auntie Tania came to see us. They could not make it to the tea party as Auntie Tania's colleague had contracted Swine flu. They got wonderful flowers and a nice dress to them. I was colicky and was not very comfortable the whole evening and gave a hard time. :( I will soon see Auntie Tania, once again and make up for the loss. :)

Deepavali
It was soon Deepavali time - Festival of lights. Initially, we were supposed to see Anu auntie but that did not materialise. I hope to see her soon, though. Ma and papa were trying to make it as vibrant as possible. Ma is fond of light and she ensured that the whole house was lit with candles. I found it amusing to look at the candles and the arrangement ma had made. On the Diwali day, I was 3 months old. So, I started getting to eat a tiny bit of banana as ma thinks that I am hungry all the time. :)

Week 8

Life has been busy with lots of going around. I am learning a lot of things, as almost everything is new to me. As much as I am interested, my parents are also interested in converting these times into something special. Specially, ma uses her silly ideas to amuse me.

Suresh uncle, Joy auntie and Pranaya had come to visit us. I was sleeping after a lot crying, so I was not disturbed.

Later in the day, I was taken out to the riverside area of Norwich. It was windy and a little cold so I was covered completely. I slept through most of the walk though I took 5-10 minutes to explore the place.

Later that week, we celebrated Krishna Janmashtami according to Solar calendar. Doddamma took to prepare all the goodies that she had missed out preparing the previous time.

Some Photographs of this week:

Week 7

Week 7 started with intersting things. First of all, my parents colleague and friend Kathy visited us. It was nice to be sitting with her and Chris. She also taught ma a trick to wind me up. Ma has started doing that since then.



Later the same day, Gary and Emma came to see me, from Birmingham. It was sad that Valerie could not make it to Norwich. I had been waiting to see them from long time. I was almost asleep when they reached. Gary felt good holding me and remembered the things he did to Emma when she was as old as me.

Next day, Gary suggested we go out somewhere and as Emma liked we went to Banham Zoo. It was a good walk and first real outing for me and ma, as well. I was sleeping most of the time, but still it was good. Emma enjoyed holding me and I felt comfortable, too. All were mused that ma gave me bath in the bucket. And I am enjoying all the toys Gary has got me.

Week 6

Though this was a milestone in medical terms for ma, nothing quite exciting happened.

The sad thing was Nidhi chachi and Sourabh chacha left back to India. I suppose, I will not be able to meet them frequently specially the training Sourabh chacha gave to me. Sourabh chacha gave a party in Oasis, my second conscecutive lunch in the same restaurant

We celebrated Ganesh Chathurthi nicely. Dadi asked ma to prepare daal, baati and churma, a rajasthani dish and doddamma prepared some more sweets and savouries that are Ganesh's favorite.

Finally, we got time to get a family photo.

Ganesh Chathurthi Celebration

Week 5- Me and My toys

Hello everyone..I am back. I have not been all well these days and I have been keeping everyone, specially ma on toes. I guess my digestive system is yet to develop well, and will happen so while I am 3 months old. Till then, good luck to myself and my parents.





I have started looking at people and recognizing. I can easily recognize my parents, doddamma and couple of uncle's and aunt's who come home to see me. I enjoy with them.






Over the weekend, when I was quite(not crying for a change), my parents showered me with all the colorful soft toys. I was overjoyed and wanted to taste them all. Every attempt of mine to taste them was troubled by ma. I finally got upset and showed my anger to them by making noises and finally crying.

It was also, my first outing to the city center! Ma forced pa to take us to get a nice cardigan exchanged. I was awake for sometime, but later I slept as I love the ride in my pram.

This week also was important as I had my first lunch in a restaurant. We all were invited by Nauni uncle for a party in Oasis. And guess what, everyone recognized me and wished me. It was the same place where we had party when I was in ma's tummy.

My dada and dadi like to talk to me everyday evening. I have forced them to change their dinner time to 9.00pm so that they can later talk to me. I have already started changing people's lives, for good! After that I am taken out for a walk/stroll. Slowly the walk time is increasing.

There was a festival and I was rewarded with good cash from ma and dadi. :) I have already started earning, you see!

Pa has started singing and showing rhymes to me. I quite like them sometimes. Ba Ba black sheep is my favorite for now.

Too many things for this week, isn't it? I am enjoying it and everyone around me. Some photographs of the week.

Krishna Janmashtami

Though I enjoyed doddamma cooking laddu's and chakkuli for Krishna Janmashtami, I was surprised when ma decided to dress me up as a little Krishna.






I was overwhelmed with the ornaments and started crying and spoiled all the enthu parents had about converting me into a Krishna. See how horrible I look with all those ornaments. I am sure I will not like it as I grow...
