Kyra - 8th Month

Dearest Kyra,

This month went by pretty fast. Everyday we learnt something new about your routine/behavior. And by the time our intelligence network analyzed and understood it, it already got changed :).

We celebrated our first Valentine's Day and Daddy's birthday with you. Arpit Kaka and Tulsi kaki visited from NJ and you had great time with your little buddy Aayan. Arpit Kaka showed some tips and tricks about our new SLR camera and daddy was able to take your best close-up photo so far.


You stopped sleeping through night. You would wake up more than 2-3 times with sudden discomfort and till date we have not been able to find the reason behind it. Sadly, you would not sleep through the day either and that would affect you eating pattern. Result? More incidents of me getting mad at you and more spit ups. 

You started making various sounds as if you were ready to talk but could not find words. You became expert at sounds like blowing candles, clicking tongue, Jaa Jaaa, Naaa naaa, Daaa Daaa, Ti Ti Taa Taa. And you loved clapping with daddy. We had several videos that we shared with both the families. And they were amazed to see how fast you were growing up.

You were already obsessed with phone. But now you started liking laptop and TV remote as well.

This entire month was all about experimenting with your food. Not only about introducing new food but also about steadily increasing the quantity. You loved solid food far more than milk.


We celebrated Women's Day with you. Daddy treated us at an Italian Restaurant. This turned out quite adventurous as I had to feed you there. Of course, I ended up singing 'Ek Biladi Jadi' and 'Mara Prabhu Ji Nana' :P


We took you to the Annual Cricket Party of Ferocious11, first of a kind for you. We all were in a formal black and white attire. We gave a trophy to daddy and we had our best family pic so far.


You had this toy where you would put colorful rings on a stick. You were far more interested in stick than the rings. You would use ring as 'Gada'. So daddy gave you this new name 'Chhota Bheem'. You would look at us when you hear 'Bheemu'. And then when daddy would say 'Shant Gadadhari Bheem, Shant', you would smile at him.
