More Aghooisms

Picture this-
HD is travelling on work. I am going crazy trying to cook lunch / get Aghoo to brush her teeth / fill her bottles / clean vessels- all at once.

I am unusually ( erm.. usually?) cranky trying to hurry things up t get to work for a meeting. Miss Madame is taking her sweet time to eat her eggs and milk. I give her a stern warning "amma thirumbi varadhukulla 2 big aas ( mouth fuls) sapitirukanum- ok?" and I rush back to the stove to check on the sambar.

30 sec later a little voice pipes up " What you doing amma? Angry?" What choice do I have but to ROTFL?!

10 min later..I am again angry with her because she wont finish her eggs- so I give her noodles. She goes " Amma angry?" and I say " Yes Aghoo I am angry. You did not finish your eggs" ..She says " Amma see". I turn back and I see this WIDE fake smile :P.. What can I do but ROTFL?! And I laugh,, she says " Amma angry?" and I have to say " No baby I am not angry :P".

10 more minutes later. I am trying to rush her upstairs to take her bath - and we are already very late. She is dilly-dallying again and I get angry and shout( :( I know- bad mommy shouts!). She follows me to the bath room and when I trying to get her clothes ready, she climbs on my lap, hugs me and says "Amma angry?"

 She definitely knows how to pacify me - I she is much better than HD :P

Lately, she is fascinated with colors..I think , much to my dismay, her favorite color is " Gween" :P. This is karma for all those years when I said I hate green :(.

Aghooisms

Miss Aghoo's verbal skill are developing by leaps and bounds..

She is very much into identifying colors right now. So any object is an opportunity to play the color game.She goes " idhu yenna" with a very tapori accent to ask for the color- its incredibly funny :)

She loves to meet other babies- only unless they stay away from her amma and dada though. Poor little Kitty got lectures on friday about being  " yaya"( not clean).Kitty baby , the sweetie pie, came to me as soon as I called him and Miss Aghoo had to make a scene and make me carry her.

She does still have her OCD about cleaning up any mess. She has a small napkin that she hangs from her toy kitchen's oven door ( just like the real one!) and will clean up any mess the minute its made.Sometime I think she loves cleaning so much, that she makes messes only to clean up ( a la Monica ?)

She is very diligent about saying  thank you  (shank you :) ) and "you are welcome". If she says thank you to you, she wont let you be until you say " you are welcome"- a good thing I think :).

She is definitely not very generous with her " sorry" though- especially to people other than me ( dada and ava). I have to coax her and threaten her to say sorry.

Her " Violet" gets the brunt of her anger and her affections- Violet is frequently given time outs and hugged frequently too :)

I know I should record more of her chronicles here- should try to be regular..
