Kanav's naughtiness - 1

Kanav's crawling speed and stamina has increased and Preeti has grown slimmer. I sometimes share laughs with myself when I realize that within a few days Kanav will start walking. I am surely going to see Preeti as I have never seen before [:D].

To see him grow has been a wonderful experience for both, me and Preeti. He is showing a lot of promise as far as cerebral sharpness is concerned. However hard you try but no one can control his expectations from one's kid which just keep growing with him.

Kanav disagrees to sit and play on the bed anymore as he used to do 15 days back. You give him something to play on the bed, he will play for a minute or two and as soon as he gets bored, he will move to the edge of the bed and throw it on the floor and then innocently look at you as if he is saying - dady can you put me on the floor so that I can play with it. If you don't oblidge, he will swing his right hand as if he is saying - "main nahin...main nahin...". And still if your heart does not fall for the kid, he will make a sad smiley and will start crying while trying to get off the bed by himself (unsuccessfully).
While on the floor he his fond of going into the balcony and eat whatever rubbish he can gather before anyone of us picks him and pushes him inside. He then tries the doormat of the toilet which I now keep out in the balcony.
The thing which Kanav relishes the most is the paper, whatever be the size or taste, he just enjoys it.
But the best part is, he never swallows these rubbish. So it is easier for us to make out that he is having something beyond his diet which needs to be taken care of with immediate effect.
The day is not far when he is going to get off the bed all by himself. I am going to take care of all this stuff when I am shifting to a new house now.
Luv U Kanav

9 Months

Kanav recently turned 9 months old and it has been now one and a half years since he has been with us.
I have been through now 4 stages of emotional maturity (EM) and kanav's birth and growth is the 5th stage of my EM but is the most beautiful of all.
My best moment in the day is when I come back from office and he rushes towards me crawling and smiling full length.
He recently started saying papapapa which I really enjoy.
Time and again I am reminded of my fathers words when he said that "You will understand a lot of things about a parent and child relationship when you become a father". While I am really happy that I am realizing what he meant, I regret a lot of things I have said and done which have not pleazed them. I am sure Kanav will also tread the same line but now I am better prepared.
Luv U Kanav!
