Toddler Thursdays 4 - Boot stories

Boots story 1
We are at a store to buy a pair of boots for Ritu. It is a difficult task to get her try something new as she has an aversion to new stuff. This day though she was willing to try one pair. After wearing we asked her to try walking in that. After walking few steps, she comes back and says in a matter-of-fact way," Kollilla..Grip illa" (it is not good. It doesn't have grip)

Boot story 2
We stopped at a store on our way to a friend's place to visit his newborn baby. After we were done shopping for the baby, we passed by the shoe department and and I told hubby I need to get a pair of boots. When Ritu saw that we were not stopping at check out she says," Ammaku boots kunji vangi tharam! Bill cheythu vangi tharam. Nalle nokki vangam."( I will buy boots for you. I will bill it and get it. You should pick a good one).

Tara - Our star

0
We were blessed with another angel on Aug 8th. This time around we had a plan. I wanted to try a normal delivery if that was possible. But in case this girl follows her sister's footsteps and decides that it's really cozy inside and there is no need to hurry, we were prepared with plan B. So the plan was to wait till due date and if nothing happens till then, we will go for a scheduled c section. Well, due date came and baby showed no signs of coming out by herself so we went in for a scheduled c section. Last time I was already tired from being in labor pain for almost a day, but this time around since it was planned, I was fully aware of everything that was happening. Tara came into this world screaming on Aug 8th, with a head full of hair, highly resembling her sister. ( By the way, the name was suggested by her ammavan.)


Ritu was thrilled to see her baby sister finally.




She stayed awake and enjoyed the 28th-day ceremony.




Tara, may you always keep shining like a star.
