Rudu at seven months, Krish at five years and my life right now..



 


Rudu sits, crawls and stands.Krish took three rigorous swimming classes and has become very confident and has proceeded to the third level (Ray). He is cycling confidently without training wheels.
I am not a great milestone keeper. I go out of my way and try not to follow what they are supposed to do at this age kind of stuff. I border on rudeness when I don’t ask back parents how old their babies or kids are. Can’t we just enjoy the kids for what they are without sizing them up against our kids? But with near zero recollecting prowess's, I feel I need to chronicle their milestones somewhere!
For all the reasons people give to have multiple kids, the one I have heard most frequently is to give their kids siblings. So true! On a completely different note, I have noticed that moms who have been only kids are the ones most likely to have a single baby. However, dads who were the only kids want their kids to have siblings. Just a hypothesis.
 I love watching these two interact. They both torture each other in their own little ways, Rudu wants everything that Krish has and Krish smothers him, wakes him up with all his shouting and screaming  and annoys him by kissing his feet (yuck, I know but he has got a serious foot fetish :) ).
I think it was good decision to keep Krish at home this summer, the two of them really bonded, though it drove us all crazy!
Our life right now, mummy is still here, so still getting to eat wholesome, delicious Indian food. Eswar is very busy with work and the gym workouts:)
My schedule has been pretty flexible so far. With no school trips, it has been quite relaxed. I get back home, chat over a cup of coffee, or take these boys to the park, or go out play with Krish or took him swimming. Another month of this:)
Books I read – Vacationers
