O Joy.. watching Meethi crawl on her all 4s.... she seems to have learned this in last couple of days. She is quite quick and reaching out to shoes especially Rimi's sleepers, my X-Box games DVDs..

Meethi is very ill. She had a temperature of almost 105 F. She puked whatever she ate. We went to doc this morning and the doc gave her antibiotic. She said Meethi has chest infection and asked to come back next week for recheck. She stayed closed to mom and was very much inactive for most of the day. Both of us did not go to office today.
We gave her calpol and nurofen and when the temp is down she feels better and starts chirping in her usual way. Such a delight to see her in her normal state.

Hope she gets well soon.

13 March 2011 @ 10 Months

Meethi is 10 months old today. She was not well today and she had some temperature when she got up in the morning.

I saw her 5 teeth today when Rimi told me. Her big one is coming from the upper and she has the middle 4 on the lower. She is still teething and constantly chewing her finger.

Her cough has not improved yet and its almost 2.5 months in Poole. She had antibiotic twice but that has not improved her cough. Her nose is not clear as well and always has the murmur sound.

She has started moving around the house. She does not crawl the usual way and it is similar to the hurdle jump pose on the floor. Very soon I have to start moving things out of her reach.

Meethi did not eat well today. In the evening, we fed her with difficulty. However, later I gave her a medicine quickly and she puked all she had in the evening. Rimi was so annoyed.. but it was my fault. She then just had 2ozs of milk.... might have to get up at night for second feed.

Meethi has learnt to stand up by holding up something like the chair. She is not able to move her legs at the moment but that day is not far :-).

Sabyasachi and Priyanka came over during the weekend. Meethi was very cranky on Saturday night. She almost cried for 2 hrs and we tried almost everything to calm her. I even went to A&E to check if someone was available to check her. However, "Sheela ki jawani" did the trick back at home. 6 shows of back to back video song on the youtube charmed her and calmed her. She did sleep later but still she seemed unsettled. It could be because she slept till late in the evening.

The other song that interest her is the "Laung the lashkara" from Patiala House movie.

She has started chirping a lot. Few sounds that she makes regularly is ....AI TO...., JA... , and ofcourse lot of noise bordering on screaming.

We have now two car seats for her. One a new one and a 2nd hand for the 2nd car. She is enjoying both but the forward facing intersts her more.

Meethi has her food on her high chair and nowhere else. She loves to eat half boiled egg yolk even if she is full in her stomach. Feeding her is not very easy. She will eat willingly for almost half of her food and then the struggle begins. I am not good at it and mom does the hard work to feed her the rest.

We have enrolled Meethi at Cuddles nursery. She will start on half day from 9th Feb and then full time from 21 Feb.

Heard that Mithi fell down from the rocker... Mithi's first adventure :-) and her mom was worried.

Missing Mithi so much.. just watching her videos and photos, brings smiles on my face, no wonder why babies are compared to god... the age of absolute innocence, purity of heart..

waiting for both princess to return to UK... 30th Dec.. still a month to go.

Heard that Mithi has just started sitting on her own and I am very sure she is going to crawl very soon. I wish I could go to Delhi and get them back with me. Tickets are bloody costly.

Will also miss the anniversary and X-mas with my sweethearts :-(

In the evening, for the first time, we fed Meethi baby rice. It was a very small quantity, one teaspoonful with milk and Meethi finished everything. Good girl :-)

For last 3 weeks Meethi has started making noises and she herself seems to be enchanted with her own voice... .aaa....aa...e.e....aaaeeee.... she knows what she is talking or singing but we just love it.

She has been cranky during eveing time around 7.30 onwards and she would not stop crying. Day before yesterday we went to A&E but were frustrated by the waiting time and we just came back.
She has caught cold and her nose is blocked.

Mama bought pepa pig and mickey mouse as soft toy... will have to wait for her to start playing !

Thrilled to cook cheesy macaroni using sanjeevkapoor's recipe and it came out pretty good for dinner.
