Grow Baby Grow

Ritvik is in such a wonderful age. He can talk very well. He does full conversations - full of sweet expressions and semi-true facts. Sometime when he is being naughty I tell him - 'No sir, No sir, don't do that' and this really turns him off. He says... 'I don't like no no sir no sir' :-) See he already has his likes and dislikes. Ritvik tells us when he wants to watch Thomas train and when he wants Mickey mouse. He picks up his own favourite from Blockbuster kids aisle.He says 'Miska Muska Mickey Mouse' and plays mickey phone game with his Papu. In food he likes apple juice, pango (mango) juice and fur fries (finger fries). Even though we are rare McD goers, he recognized the big M and knows they sell fries. He also knows his library, borders (to pick up books) startbucks (to have coffee) and Baskin Robins, Clod Stone ( to have icecream).

When I reach home I have to become doggy and do 'woof woof' with him and then horsy and give him a ride and then pull down all the cushions of that big old sofa and make a house out of it. When he is pretending to be doggy, he won't respond if you call him Ritvik. You have to call him pluto doggy and he will only eat bone (doggy eats bone) :-). Dinning chair goes upside down and becomes a bus. We have to seek special permission from him to use it for meals.

His emotional toys are his blue blankie, yellow bird (his baby, also his first toy) and his teddy.

Ritvik has recently started going to a pre-school. He is learing good manners. He says 'excuse me' when he wants to interrupt and say something. He likes drawing and can actually draw quite well. Things like car, digger... and they quite resemble it... I mean they have wheels :-) not bad for a 2 year old. I think he has interest in music too. He can recognize instrumensts... like drum, guiter, piano in a track.

Challenge these days... he is not P trained yet  :-|
