Washington to Washington D.C

We visited Washington D.C. over the Memorial day weekend and Kedaar loved the place.
We had good time visiting museums, memorials, money printing press(lots and lots of dollar notes printed like newspapers in Engraving and Printing :-) ).

Kedaar enjoyed traveling in bus/trolley/car/SUV/Van/train/plane. He picked up quite a few words along the way and now he gets into the groove with almost every object and the question "what is this ?" follow that.

Some photos from our trip are here :

Happy Ugadi




Happy Ugadi.

We went to a near by temple and had ugadi pachadi today. Its been 1 year since he started going to day care. Now a days he is keeping little silent for a while when he meets strangers. Again becomes normal and plays with them after few minutes. Kedaar is picking up words very fast. Few days back he said new words Avuna (is it so), kaaki (crow), fish, duck, noone (oil), pasta (pasa), paripoyindi (ran away), ammamma, aamma, siz, seven, eight, two etc. He is just trying to repeat every word we say. He also dances little bit for rhythmic tunes. He also seemed to like music since he has been a kid, now he learned more like dancing, jumping etc when a rhythmic tunes comes.

Last week we went to veggie fest that happened in seattle. Its basically tasting samples diferent vegetarian items. Kedaar tasted few items.

Kedaar Cute Acts

Here a some of Kedaar's recent photos. Last weekend we went to Seattle downtown Alki beach as it aws little sunny and Kedaar had nice fun over there. He does so many new acts now a days and I don't even remmeber all of them to write down in this blog. Few things that come to mind are
1. Giving kisses. He gave lot of kisses grand parents over phone. And we can not count how many times he gives kisses to mummy, daddy and to his favorite Pooh bear.
2. He picks up thins on floor and gives "Mummy, theesu(take)", he also says "po po","mama","nanna","tatha","oopsie","oh no","shoes","socks","pooh","bear","noone" etc.
3.Giving hifi.
4.Taking his pooh for ride on his train. Whenever it fails, it says "Oopsie". Kedaar laughs so much whe it says that and some times he intentionally moves the train to make the pooh bear fall.
5.Whenever a song which has some beat is played in car, he automatically moves his hands and legs rhythmically while sitting in car seat itself.
6. Throwing things on floor saying "Chee" whenever we khim to throw something. One quality I love about him is - whenever he is doing something bad like eating things on floor, touching stove etc,he keeps his eye on us. If we dont put encouraging face, he just doesnt do it. If we dont observe him,then he grabs our attention by doign something and looks for our reaction before really doing that bad thing.
7.Combing hair for mummy.

Kedaar completes 15 months today

Kedaar completed 15 months today on Feb 8th.
He and his new toys , a walking pooh and curious grorge riding on a train are doing great. Chandra has signed up for swimming classes for Kedaar for Feb month and yesterday they tried it for the first time. Kedaar had lot of fun. Kedaar in general likes water so much and doesnt want to come out of the tub whenever we give him bath. Kedaar now shows his nose, eyes,ears and some times cheeks. He does this so cute. Recently we had lot of snow in Seattle. Kedaar had a lot of fun in snow. If we ask him "is it snowing", he immediately goes to window to see if it is snowing. He does this when showing the moon as well.
Here are some videos we took recently doing these acts.





One thing he is doing often these days is giving hug and kiss immediately when we ask him. He gives lot of hugs Pooh, his bear toys, and also mom, dad. He gives kiss to his photos as well saying 'babyyy' :) He is also very helpful to mummy in kitche. If some vessels, spoons are lying around, he immediately brings them saying "theeso" whic means take it.He likes to listen to his favorite rhymes on Chandra's cell phone. He just knows how to pause and start songs on the cell phone and I don't understand how smartly and quickly he can do that. He is also trying to say few words like hello, apple etc. His favorite rhymes now a days are "How much is that doggy in the Window" and 'The farmer in the dell, hi ho the derry ho the farmer in the dell". For the doggy rhyme, he also makes "Pow pow" dog sounds and for the other rhyme, he tries to bend on his knees and getup as the kids in that song do.

He keeps on running around the house nonstop and comes up with some new trick everyday to surprise us.
In the last month, he got cold/cough several times with little fever. He is doing better now. I am just waiting for this those spring/summer months to show up.

Kedaar completes 14 months




Kedaar completed 14 months on Jan 8th. Somehow because of busy days at work, we didnt remember that day. On Jan 9th, when we got up, we just remembered that our cute boy has grown one more month. Few new things he has been doing in this month..
He says "mummy", "amma" and "Naanna" very clearly with lot of stress. He also says words that sounds like "i c" etc. He also operates cell phone and tries calling to his grand parents when it is locked :) One of his favorite activities keep listening to songs on cell phone. He also enjoys the steam that comes out of rice cooker saying "aaahh". Whenever the "old mcdonald had a farm" song comes, he sings "EIEIO".He tries to build using the building blocks we bought for him.

Last weekend, we went to picture people to do one more photo session for Kedaar. We have been planning for it since he turned and finally could make it. The pictures came out nicely.
