11th month

you were completely comfortably mobile on your own...can stand, crawl and take a couple of steps with support. you cant sit down though and all u do is go thump on ur bum when u do want to sit after standing for long.
finally saw 2 pearly white teeth on the lower gums! they are choooo tiny and they are wavy! didnt take me long to know they are sharp too ... :)
your games and toys started getting more creative, bangalore ajji gives u elaichi chilka, coconut, flowers, peru, fruit basket, imli to play with. the best so far has been chinmuri... since u like to touch everything with just your index finger and then after careful examination you press it, you did just tht and the chinmuri took a nice long jump!! it amused u and all of us sooooo much, it became your and ours fav game. it was amazing how you would carefully and slowly place your finger on the chinmuri and then give it a nice push to make it jump! the first time you did it, you laughed and laughed and laughed until tears rolled down ur eyes. you even got hiccups but it didnt stop u from doing the same thing again and laughing again! was fabulous!
you have had plenty of falls, all of them resulting in hurting your head and i am really nervous about tht now! i think u have had enough but people tell me its just the beginning...didnt know i would be such a weak mom!

things that you do :

• clap your hands when we say vitthal vitthal and raise your hands above your head when we say 'goooovinda!'
• when we say 'vikrant kahan hai?' , you pat your chest tht says, its me!
• you imitate people when they cough or giggle
• you can say tata and wave your hands up and down to say tata!
• u and papa can say 'yayayayayayaya' together in the same style by spreading your mouth as much as you can and shutting your eyes while saying it :)
• you can go to your feeding chair , hold it and keep saying mamamamamamam when you are hungry
• when we say dai dai dai dai dik, you bang your forehead to ours lightly and giggle while shaking ur head ...
  
• the first word you learnt was 'aatu' .. something tht papa said while he was walking you around and you picked it up...you keep saying it in such a sweet tone and it sounds so so so cute in your babyish accent!
• when your are sleepy you say nananananan, coz i keep saying nini for sleep.
