Bull fight

Now that NFL star Michael Vick has been charged for dog fighting, it seems I will have to stop my Aryan's favourite sports "bull fighting".
If I bring my head too close to Aryan's head he starts hitting my head with his head and if I pretend that I am getting hurt and he won, one can see excitement on his face and he starts hitting more vigorously.

Ready for bull fight

Aryan won the fight

Car

Who will be most happy seeing this snap? It's Nimisha.

When I bought my car, we wasn't sure whether Aryan will sit on the rear facing car seat. Surprisingly he did happily but his mom told US rules are just too strict and like her favourite statement "Iss se acha to India hai". There they allow children on the front seat and even on driver seat sitting on driver's lap. Well, I didn't argued whether it's freedom or lack of safety awareness.

Here Aryan got an opportunity to sit on the front seat and Nimisha didn't missed an opportunity taking a snap.

Ja Ja Ja

I grew up watching trains passing by from my house at Sabour. Fortunately, I have a railway track behind my Gill Lane apartment and one can see goods train passing by from the patio.

Aryan gets very excited and runs towards the patio when he hears the sound of train passing by. He looks curiously, watching colourful wagon and says "ja ja ja", waves his hand smilingly, when the last wagon crosses our apartment.

I didn't taught him but he learned himself saying "ja ja ja" whenever a train, car, truck or anything very interesting crosses by. I goes flat whenever he smiles and waves his hand saying "ja ja ja".

Happy Birthday Mama

Happy Birthday Nicky Mama!!
I wish you all the best for your final year exams and forthcoming challenges for the job hunting.

Baba Ramdev teaching yoga

Recently Baba Ramdev was in Washington DC and I thought who can teach better yoga to Aryan?
We were moving around on streets of DC, a bit tired, when Biswajit was stretching his hand and Aryan started copying him.

Brushing teeth

We started brushing Aryan's teeth with our fingers when he was around twelve months. Now that he has around 18 teeths (5 at the front and 2 on each sides and other 9 on lower jaws) it was high time that he switch to toothbrush. Last month, I bought a colourful toothbrush but the challenge was how to teach him.
Next morning, I washed his face and inserted the toothbrush in his mouth but he turned his head. I holded him strongly but just managed to brush his front teeth. I found that he was very eager to hold the brush himself. so I gave him the brush and I started brushing my gold plated teeth :-( and seeing that Aryan started brushing his silver plated teeth. Well, to start with it was not exactly brushing but it was more of chewing the brush.
Now everyday we brush our teeth together with a difference that Aryan chews his brush and plays with it for atleast 15 minutes. It's just 3 weeks and I can find the soft brush bristles getting hard and poiting to all directions. Will have to get a new one.
The challenge remains as how to flush the water from his mouth.

Dare to count lion's teeth
