I’ve been kissed.

Finally.
And not just as a peck or  touching of lips.
It was a full blown smackarooney 
And just in case you are wondering (repeat, in case), I’m talking about Shaunie, my baby boy!
He finally gave me that very lovely kiss of his that I’ve been craving for since ages.
He was benevolent enough yesterday to bestow his father with the same.
To say we were gratified, would be putting it mildly. We were on CLOUD 9. Yup, right up there with the Stars and Sun and moon and what-not!!
After months of cajoling and pleading him to kiss us, he finally caved in yesterday and smacked us crazy.

Dear Shaunie

I just wanted to note down a few things that you have been upto in the last few days
You have been talking up a storm. But unfortunately i can understand only a few words.
I love it when you say mama or mummy. you always say it in pair mama- mama or mummy mummmyyyyyyy.
I love when you look at me and give me the biggest smile.
Your favorite words these days are open and on. You are always asking to open everything or turn things on.
Your favorite character in elmo whom you call aame.
You are a big miser when it comes to giving kisses
I love it when you are in a good mood in the morning and say byeee to me.
You are a very polite boy , who say k ku meaning thank you for everything.
You are very shy by nature and don't interact much with strangers. You won't respond to questions and sing songs when asked. But when you are by yourself you will be singing or talking all the time.
You are the center of our world and your mommy and daddy love you a lot.

That's all I have right now

It is futile to teach kids about honesty. All kids are born honest. Brutally honest
What is difficult to teach, is tact. To teach how to sugar-coat the truth. To beat around the bush!

Prefect long weekend

Before giving birth to S long weekend were filled with late night parties , traveling to different places, hiking, long drives and endless eating out.

But this weekend 9/3/2012 was the perfect long weekend it started with me waking up and having S jump around in our bed. he pulls my pillows and all the pillows on the bed to make himself comfortable. Then he opens Ab's night side table and dumps all the cd;s out. then there is endless moving of the cd's from one side of the bed to another.this adorable business goes on for quiet some time. What a perfect way to wake up to your baby running around on your bed. This was followed by some more play time with S in the living room followed by lunch and nap time. It is so awesome to cuddle up to your little one during nap. S is so shy that every time i look at him he looks the other way and smiles.oh...if smile could kill i would be dead. he hugs his elmo whom he calls "aamy" and goes off to sleep. 2 hours later he wakes up in a awful mood and then there is some non stop crying till he all get ready and off we go shopping to Tyson's corner.

Shopping is heaven that i hardly get to experience since S was born but thanks to my lovely hubby we took turns in the play area with S and were able to enjoy some good retail therapy.

The night ended with a to go from kabab place and skinny margarita at home.

The next day was rinse and repeat except this time we had baby K and family come over in the evening. S was so shy as usual and did not leave my lap for a good hour, but baby K was adorable in playing around and being a daddy's girl. Which got me thinking is S a mama's boy :) why not ...i love him being my boy ;)

Baby K was so cute and decided to give kisses to shy and shocked S.

The next day we just decided to hang at home and enjoy the time with S , in the evening we took him to the community pool. He was playing around and being stubborn and drinking the horrible pool water. Then suddenly he went under the water for a brief moment.... life in me was drained, i pulled him out immediately and was happy to know that he was fine and happy to go back in the water.

Phew...can;t take my eyes off this boy for a second !

Rest of the night was a breeze...went home...made chicken curry...gave S his dinner...then AB gave him a bath and put him to sleep after reading him some books.

All in all this was a prefect weekend...of lots of hugs from S, hangin out with AB, cooking and eating out, shopping and meeting frnds :) could not have a asked for a better life

Things I don't want to forget

The way shaun hugs me

The way shaun feeds me

The way shaun screams if anyone yells at me.

The way shaun runs behind AB to play ball.
