How things change in just a few months

@1 month: Peanut....wake up....wake up and playyy with us...
@6 months: Peanut....go to sleep....sleep, please....let us sleep too....

@2 months: Vijay, quit hogging the baby...
@6 months: Vijay, quit hogging the TV - here, take the baby for a while.

@3 months: Peanut....why don't you DO something...move...roll over....come on...
@6 months: Peanut! No! Don't roll off the bed...stop rolling over when I'm changing your diaper...no, don't pee on my bed...fine!

@4 months: Peanut...come on, learn how to hold objects in your little fist...that's it!
@6 months: Peanut, LET GO OF MY HAIR...Owww....no, don't throw that remote...THIS is toy...THAT is mama's phone...

@5 months: Peanut, it's time for you to start eating something...try a smattering of banana...carrot...apple...yummm
@6 months: Peanut, PLEASE EAT SOMETHING...KHICHDI...DAL...PEAS....ANYTHING...NO, NOT THAT, THAT'S YOUR SNOT, STOP IT...

Well, I guess not everything changes.

  5. Hey Y! I am Mira's mom - a relatively new mommy on the blogosphere:-) Was just randomly going through blogs when I came across yours - thought will just read and move on but something made me write back. Your worry about the baby not eating and your leave getting over is too too obvious - so just want to say, don't worry. Things will soon start looking up - Peanut might take a bit more time but she will finally succumb to what all humans have - FOOD!:-)

    That's precisely what mammas and papas are for - what's the fun if you can't drive them nuts.

    :-))))))
