My darling little itty bitty baby is growing up too fast. She is almost 7 months old now:).
When I get home form work, she gives this huge big smile to welcome me home. She cannot even wait for me to wash my hands before I pick her up- she protests loudly till I do pick her up.
I wanted to keep her exclusively breast fed until she is 6 months old( yeay for mission accomplished :))-We have now started her on solids- breakfast at 8 am.
It is so much fun to see her taste different solid foods- we started with rice cereal and have now tasted sweet potatoes/carrots/ragi :).
Milestone alert :-Aghoo/Dada and me took our first trip as a family to Tampa , Florida. Dada was there on business and we just tagged along. Aghoo and I had so much fun for 5 days- just the 2 of us all day long.
We took her 6 month pictures at a professional place. She refused to smile :P .We came out of the studio and we were waiting to pay the bill- she was all smiles.. the silly button.
I love you my little baby.. Always be happy and hope you have a fun babyhood :)
My Darling Aghunoosh
Although you are barely 5.5 months old, you have such a cute ( and strong ) personality. I was just telling dada this morning- I cant believe how much you communicate to us, albeit non-verbally.
You make it known that you want to be carried or burped or fed :)
You are a delight to be with and the star attraction in our home now.
Dada and I are totally crazy about you- as are your chithi/chitappa/grandparents etc.
You wake us up at 7 am ( on the dot, might I add) , with your cute wake up sound- which sounds like - " aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" with an increasing pitch :).Dada and I wake up to that and smile at each other ( most days ;)), and one of us gets up to tend to the Maharani :).You are such a cutie pie- if we are a little cross with you and we change the tone of our voice, you smile that coy smile of yours to melt our hearts.
As you are nearing 6 months, we are planning on introducing solid foods to you and it makes me just a wee bit sad that my little baby is growing too fast.
Baby girl-Enjoy your babyhood and always be happy sweetheart.
Being your amma is the most joyous job in my world .
Love you lots and more ,
Amma

Her Aghooness
Now that Her Aghooness has learned to turn over, life is a lot more interesting. We put her down- she turns over-she cries to be flipped to her back- we flip her back and put her on back- she turns over and cries to be flipped to her back- rinse and repeat!! It goes on all day long and some times in the middle of the night too(sigh!!). The poor sweet heart! I think she forgets that she doesn't know how to turn back over from her tummy to back and she keeps turning over to her tummy :P
This sunday was Aghoo's first fathers day.She got a card for her Dada and her R thatha who is visiting currently. She showed off- what else- her turning over skills to her VC thatha and P Patti :P.They cheered on ( over the web cam) like it was some Olympic event.

Aghoo at 19 weeks
Time has been running really fast and my little Aghoo is 19 weeks old already :)I need to be a little more diligent about posting updates.
This is going to be a rambling post- I don't have a specific structure in mind .
Here is a typical day for miss Aghoo.
7 am - coo or cry to wake amma and dada ( depending her mood for the day.
7 - 7.45 am - Play with amma and dada in the bed.
8.00 am - bath time !
8.45 am - Eat and take a nap
9-10.15 - nap time!
10.15 - 10.45 - play with thatha /patti and chithi ( or cry :P)
12-1.30 ish - nap time
1.30 - 3 - play time
3- 4 ish - nap time.
5.45pm - Amma comes home!!
5.45-7 - play with amma/story time with amma
7 pm- cuddle with amma and sleep.
During weekends, she spends her time with either amma or dada
The little cutie also rolled over for the first time on May 28th. Amma got to see it first hand on May 29 th (sat) :).
Little Aghoo loves to make conversation with everyone- she makes all these sounds that are so yum! Aaa ooo aghoo ( which gives her , her name ), awwww.
She is definitely a people person- loves to charm her amma/dada/chithi/thatha/patti into talking to her.She will coo/ smile/fuss/cry - in that order if we dont respond!
This has been one rambly- I promise to write a more organized one next time.

3 months old and amma's girl :)
Little Aghoo is 3 months old currently.
This morning she woke me and her dada up at 6 am with grunts ( translation- I need to poop :P). After she was done with her routine of poop-feed-diaper change, she wanted to play and talk. Since I had to come to work today and HD is at home taking care of her, he was trying to convince her to let me sleep. The little darling wouldnt hear of it. It was tooo cute- HD was trying to turn her towards him and talk to her- but she has a mind of her own and kept tugging at my face/ blanket/ hair etc to try to make me talk to her. I finally gave up and started to play with her..
Right now, she is at home with her dada. There is a cute toy that makes noise when you press it- we use it to distract her during diaper changes. Apparently, today she has learnt to press it on her own to make it sing!!
Little Aghoo is sure growing up.

hello world
Well, My name is Aghoo papa and I was born on feb 3 2010.
Why am I called Aghoo? Well, I started cooing at 9 weeks and "aghooooooooooooooooo" is my favorite sound ( word ?) right now. So, Amma and Dada call me aghoo pappa .
I am 12 weeks old today. Currently , I live with amma ,dada and patti.
Major change no.1 in my life:- Amma went back to work when I turned 10 weeks old. I was pretty cheerful about it-although amma was a complete mess :)
Major change no.2:- Patti leaves for India next week. I guess I will take it quiet well and Amma will be the cry baby again :(.
