Breakfast time

One of the good things that we did with Aakash was to let him play with his food in his high chair when he was like 5-6 months old. This proved to be very helpful atleast in his case, because now he has started to eat by himself and enjoys having that control over his food! He is having his breakfast now Idli.
Breakfast time
He has developed a new habit of clapping his hands for every gulp of food that he takes. If anybody is around him, they have to join him and encourage him by saying "good boy!" So next time you are around him at the table ... please make him happy by doing what he likes ...

Enjoying Ayush's toy

Aakash is checking out Ayush's toy ... but we have to be honest with you, we go buy him toys but he seems to be always attracted to others toys or items in the kitchen!

Time out

Aakash is punished for being mischievous. He is being asked to just stay put in front of the wall. I wish we had a camera inside the wall to show his facial expression :-)

Here is a set where you can see Aakash attempting to remove his sweater. Weather people in New York told people to add more layers of cloth to keep you warm and he wants to remove it. He was born in winter … is this one of those winter born baby things? :-)
