Choices!

Me: Do you want cherries or do you want an apple?
San: Apple!
Me: Do you want an apple or do you want cherries?
San: Cherries!
Me: Okay, Mumma is getting an apple for you.
San: Mummy, cherries!
Me: Okay, Mumma is getting cherries.
San: Mummy, apple!
Me: Choose one!
San: Mummy, bananaa!

And that's the first good conversation we had today. :-)

New words? You just heard it... err, read it! Banana! She started with a banananana though. :D The 'nanas' always used to confused her but now she has conquered them! :-) 'Sink' is the other new word in her kitty. She likes to put (toss) the used dishes (and her bottle) in the sink.

She likes going on walks cuz' she gets to look at the birds, the planes, and cats! At times, she stops to observe some busy ants without disturbing them. How thoughtful of her! :-)

Elmo still scores over everyone else, but Dora is catching up fast. How did Dora enter her fav list? Since the time she got a Dora t-shirt and came to know that it's Dora, she started liking the name Dora, and now she loves watching Dora, without forgetting Elmo. :-D I'm now in love with Elmo though!


Aaaaaaand she's gonna turn two after exactly one month... Gosh!

BTW, San's been asking me how a Zebra sounds... do you know? :-)

    Lovely way to update us on your baby girl growing years. Your writings will be a pleasure to you and San after these years have gone by. San is sure lucky to have such an observant, enthusiastic and lovely mother in you!

    I got so confused by the "in her kitty" statement. Not an idiom we have around here!

    @Meg: Thanks for dropping by! Kids always get us to do what they want, so it's mostly us who get tricked. :)

    @Michi: yes, Michi. she's THE boss right now. :)

    @westwood: Hmm, "in her kitty" is a confusing one for those who haven't seen its usage in this context. I guess its usage is more Indian, but I have no clue about its origin. I'll have to be more careful when I write for a global audience, I guess! :)
