SILLY FIGHT

Yesterday,me and my bro while playing with Jenna started to fight about who she likes the best ? I said since im the mom she will like me the best but he refused to understand since every time Jenna sees my bro,she gets excited and crawls to him.. so we decided to test and see who she likes the best .We stood few feet away from her and each of us decide to call out to her,to whomever she crawls and comes to is liked the best.. i started calling'' Jenna ,come to mommy'' and he was calling out to her ''Jenna ,come to mama(uncle)''..... she started crawling towards us... i was super confident that she will come to me..after all babies like their mom the best, but all of sudden she looked at us and turned back and went in the other direction leaving us dumbfounded.......

CRAWLING

There was a time when i wished Jenna would start crawling sooner,so that she will busy on her own and i can have time for myself,little did i know that once they start crawling i wont have any time at all... she is crawling non-stop, pulling telephone wires,picking up the tiniest of objects(not yet mouthing it)thank god!She follows me wherever i go,even to the kitchen and restroom.. her knees have become dark and bruised due to crawling on the floor... she also started pulling up to stand and hurts herself everytime... im constantly behind her and i tell infinite number of ''no Jenna ''to her... i dont know whether she understands 'no' but i do still tell her and she stops for a second and continues to do what she is doing again.... sometimes my back hurts so much....(back ache due to tailbone injury during delivery)it gets aggravated when i bend too much,too many times...my mom keeps saying ''wait till she starts walking u will have no rest then''..so i guess its now time to shed the last few pounds gained during pregnancy...

WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

FUTURE SOFTWARE PROFFESIONAL AT WORK

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME....

Today is my birthday,i m 24 years old now.. this birthday is special since Jenna is here with me and im in India to celebrate and yayy.. mother 's day falls on my birthday..but one thing i was sad about is that my family was not here with me on my birthday :( , they left for my cousin' s marriage..My brother had surprised me with a yummy chocolate truffle cake and had got a dress.. my darling hubby got me a pearl and gem set with a bracelet,the best gift of all was Jenna s card for Mother 's day with her thumb print on it... (Jamil s idea) isnt that chweet? In the evening all my girlfriends got together and they surprised me again with a cake and had given me a beautiful anklet.. this is the first time i m celebrating with my friends since most of the time i wouldnt be in town for my birthday.. Lot of my old friends had remembered and had called to wish..All in all it was a great day... a memorable one i would say..if u guys are reading thank u for making me feel special ...

ISSUES

People who see me always comment about one thing thats my weight, until i was pregnant they used to tell me im very thin and i will disappear if i dont eat properly , believe me i used to eat well but i was one of the very few lucky ones who never seem to put on weight .... pregnancy packed a few pounds say 30 pounds but it was never an issue because i was not weighing the normal weight for my height. Post partum I shed nearly 20 pounds...in a month.Now people are still commenting about my weight like'' u have put on weight..blah blah......,some people go to the extent of saying i have become fat which is totally absurd because i weigh only 124 pounds which is normal weight for my height.... i seriously have a doubt, all along my life they said i was very thin and finally when i gained weight they say im fat.. phew.. do they expect me to be a size zero or what?I m happy with my weight and i love my post partum body.When i see my old photos i feel i looked bad then........ so all you people next time u see a new mommy who is finding difficult to shed those last few pounds,first of all,dont comment about their weight,and dont say u have become fat... its a very sensitive issue for many...but for me i really dont care.

7 MONTH MILESTONES

Jenna has turned 7 months and she is constantly busy..following are the milestones she has reached

1.first of all, she started crawling.. yay! she is busy crawling and exploring things... but its become difficult for us since we are constantly behind her

2. She is now saying two words together like thatha,pappa,abba,kaka...

3.Interesting part is if someone takes her things say for example her toy or even her dirty diaper she starts saying thatha which means give me in Tamil(its our language spoken at home)i dont know whether she knows what thatha means but she says that when she wants something.

.

4.She claps her hand and says kaap kaap... i will post video of this soon.its so cutee..

5.She pulls herself to stand but falls down.

6.She sits without support.

7.She started eating indian foods like dosa,curd rice.. she loves it..

8.Her favourite song of this month is ava enna thedi vantha anjalai from vaaranam aayiram..(its a tamil song)

last month for her has been very busy... sitting up,crawling,pulling herself to stand....the coming months will be very busy for us since we have to start running behind her.

AM I ?

Lately i have become such a germ freak.... i carry hand sanitizers in my hand bag anad diaper bag.. (i know most of them do have sanitizers in their bag)but do u guys do it to the extent of carrying lysol disinfect spray pocket pack wherever u go... i do... i keep washing my hands more than the necessary times...i went to the extent of not allowing my bro to touch her since he showed signs of cold... everyone ridicules me but i dont want to catch an infection and spread it to Jenna.People here get offended easily when all i say is to wash their hands and carry her. The sole reason i do this is for Jenna ,no one will want their children to get infected.. With all this hype about swine flu i m getting scared to return since all the newspapers here advise not to travel to u.s and mexico.. but it is even expected to spread in India.. we cant runaway from viruses CAN WE?all we can do is protect ourselves.There were times when i have handled patients without even wearing gloves now i wont take a risk,(oh!for people who are wondering what patients? btw i am a dentist now on a extended maternity leave i would say) And we had a free dental camp in which i participated along with my cousin who is also a dentist... it was nice to see patients again though i didnt do any treatment ,we just screened patients and explained the treatment to be done.. just to create awareness and yes even here after every patient i was continously sanitising my hands....
