Lilypie Fifth Birthday tickers

Friday, August 31, 2007

Today was Sundar's colleague's sister's wedding reception. The packing for baby has significantly reduced to a few important items.As soon as he saw me dressed, ladoo started to bicker excitedly.He wanted me to carry him immediately and since I couldn't do it, there was a lot of struggle.We finally washed him up and dressed him. How i wish there was some automated machine that could deal with this.I would just have to put Arav through that machine and it would wash him up, change him, powder him, dress him and finish by putting on socks and shoes to his feet. Well, we finally finished up and headed out to the venue.

We stopped to buy a flower bouquet for the couple. Sundar had to walk about 50 yards to get to the florist from where the car was parked.Arav stayed with me in the car. He did not notice his dad at first, but when i pointed out to where S was standing, he looked at me and said "Appa"as if he found a long lost friend, then there was an instant smile that is only reserved for Appa. Arav has reached a new milestone, he could recognize us from a crowd and from a significant distance.

All this cuteness was not to be exhibited at the reception. Arav was being so naughty , so much that he would just take off soon after we put him down.Sundar had a hard time keeping up with ladoo's speed. The worst was yet to come. At the dining table, Arav refused to stay in one place, with us, he was screaming and crying and nothing we did calmed him down. So finally Sundar had to stop eating and had to carry him around while i finished. Only after we reached the flat premises he stopped being restless. And I had to cook dinner for S. Finally after what seemed an eternity of story telling and peek a boo playing, Arav crashed.
