Aise hi do baatein ...

I got to actually play an interactive game with my baby a couple of days back and it just made me soooo giggly and happy! It was one of those hyperactive days when SaGa was moving and stretching around until I thought my tummy is gonna pop open now! SaGa finally took a break in such a position that I could see something like an elbow or knee poking out a little bit. I started to rub on it and SaGa pulled in quickly!!! That caused another little protrusion, another rub and the SaGa quickly pulled in from there too!!! ... lol ... I loved it so much that we did this a couple times more until the SaGa said 'uffo, just let me sleep okay, am tired from all that playing!' and it settled in a position that caused no more protrusions :) I am sure I slept with a smile stuck on my face that afternoon :) . I and SaGa have played this game again after that day and I think it is a wonderful timepass for both of us! hehehe ... Only if like the Aladdin lamp, I could rub and say 'Aaja Simsim' and the baby would be out in a whoosh and say 'Kaho, kya hukum hai mere liye Maa' ... lol ...

Reaching the last month of my pregnancy now. Its been quiet a ride so far...literally...so much of travel!!! Just for the records, major travel destinations were Lake Tahoe, Los Angeles, San Diego, Dallas, India via the serpentine Frankfurt airport and Bangalore before I finally settled down in amchi Mumbai. What i did at each of these locations, well that would be a long story better told in pictures. Will update them here when I switch from dialup to broadband connection.

One of my friend's blog dedicated to Daddy made me think of SJ (my hubby :D) on his way to fatherhood. SJ has been wonderful throughout my pregnancy and so supportive. I am sure he can now write a book on 'A Man's Guide to Pregnancy' .. :) now, now, before you let your imagination wild, what I really mean to say is, he had to pick up on every little bit of information like nutrition facts, prenatal care, pregnancy mood swings and discomforts and how to handle them...I am just so proud of him! Not just because he picked this up but because he did all this with neither a word of complaint nor any hesitation. He sure has been a victim of my cravings as well! Has been to Safeway at midnight to get me that particular kind of apple, has rushed from office to a particular restaurant to get me upma..and boy what a dash it was! He reached the place just 2 min before closing time! He actually learnt to make poha too when I wanted to have some made by somebody else and not me. I really miss your veg sandwiches and gourmet omlet SJ! And yes, the constant supply of fruit salad that he kept for me needs a special mention! It was his task and he ensured such a never ending supply of cut fresh fruits ready to eat in the fridge that today I am spoilt and dont eat fruits until someones cuts it for me :D (Are you listening SJ?) Everything about him is just so adorable... Of course being a full time parent will be a completely different story. But I still have more hopes of doing a good parent job from him than from myself... :)
