The Moral Police!

Aarush is fairly good at basic manners!I don't have to always remind him to say Thank you, Welcome, Excuse me. More than himself he makes sure his dad has good manners! Yeaa son!
The moment Kiran sneezes or burps, Aarush gets all alert and waits for no more than a couple of seconds to yell back at his dad with "Excuse me analedhu?" and the poor dad has no other option but to oblige!

I hope these basic manners stay with him forever! I really love big kids with good manners!

I am not a baby, remember?

He hands me the leftover sandwich from his breakfast!
Me: Thank you baby!
Him: Baby anakoodadu ...Aarush anali !
Me: ?

My logic is not for me!!!

Scene 1: He got a bubbles liquid as return gift from a birthday party.
Me: Aarush, you have to blow the bubbles when Sun is out in the morning.
A: Sleeps with holding the bubbles liquid bottle tight!
come morning he wakes up as the first ray peeked through our window saying "Sun vochharu ipudu bubbles cheddam"
I oblige!

Scene 2: trying to put him down for a nap on a weekend.
Me: Aarush ipudu bajjovali, its nap time.
A: "Ipudu Sun vochharu, ipudu bajjokoodadu"
Me: "Why doesn't this room get dark during the day&*%$!"

Scene 3: Trying to wake him up at 8:00 AM on a weekday!
Me: Aarush , time to wake up!
A: inka 5 minutes bajjunta!
Me: After 5 min, Aarush 5 min ayipoyindhi inka school time avutundhi!
A: I hear whining!
Me: I apply his logic " Aarush inka Sun vochhadu inka bajjokoodadu"
I don't get a response!!! Why god why!!!!

Play Time!!!!

Play time doesn't have any rules, right?  So one is free to do or play however they like, right?
Righty right then, herez Aarush during his play time.

Hide and Seek!

He hides for us to seek!

Climber

If it's true that kids give hint of what they become when they grow up I am so sure that Aarush will become a 'Rock/Mountain/(Whatever that can be climbed) Climber' ( If yes, I want him to be Hrithik Roshan in Dhoom;))
Here's what he is upto:

 And of course the dishwasher

Toddlerism

This post is to help all the ignorant souls trying to figure out what toddler-ism is all about? read on and enlighten yourselves.
To me, the word "infant" rhymes with innocence, baby like, cooing, smiles and all such sweet things.
and "Toddler" for some reason rhymes with naughtiness, tantrums,imitation, monkey like,babbling,destruction, exploring,curious,fast learning,intense mobility,gawking, smiling more often and on and on and on...
And here's some proof to what I had to say.....

Mom Lets start with a fresh load of laundry
Toddler: Let me pick out and press them for you mom

Mom: Hey baby, play with this new toy I bought you
Toddler: Silly mom, why do you waste money when I am happy and content with dish washer and utensils

Mom: How do you like this park?
Toddler: Do we seriously have to drive this far?I just need some sand and mud to play with!

Mom: Lets have some fresh and fun bath time
Toddler: I like it better being inside the bucket than outside.

Toddler: Don't you think I look cute and adorable in my new PJ's
Mom: Well, can't deny that!!!!

that's my toddler for you.
