World this week

Naman's world this week:

 - Started full time daycare all days of the week since Ajji left last Thursday
 - Got into a real fight for the first time over a toy car and ended up with few scratch marks (couple of bad looking ones near the eyes)
 - Continues to include "Addi" (ajji) in his stories and songs and asks about her on his way back from school.
 - Composed his very first song :). It is based on "Wheels on the bus" tune and goes something like: "Pappa, Mumma, Addi, Nanna (he calls himself Nanna) hee-hee-hee hee-hee-hee hee-hee-hee  tonn (town). It is so much more cuter when he sings it!
 - Continues to be a poor eater and absolutely no interest in drinking his milk
 - Has acquired a new silly sleep-time habit over the past couple of days : he needs to hold his "duddu pop" (milk bottle), opened, in one hand and the cap in the other hand. Doesn't matter if the milk in the bottle falls down and wets the bed and pillow. After hours of screaming and crying and trying to coax him to give up this habit, we have resorted to having a spare bottle at hand for him to lie down with. Looking at him sleep this way reminds me of drunkards that we see in movies who lay all wasted on the streets with the bottles in their hands.
 - Bites anything and everything, we are attributing this to teething, hopefully its just a phase.
 - His bath time is slowly but surely turning into a war-zone. These days he looks forward to his "hot bath" times and the moment we are in the bath tub, he starts "Mug kodu" (give me the mug) and there starts the tug of war, literally.
 - Calls any small kid even 2x his size as "baby". That is so funny and cute.
 - He loves "tow mater" from the cars series. That said, he loves all his cars, trucks and buses and anything on wheels.

There may be some tidbits that I am forgetting to note down here but every day is a fun, tiring day, oh boy!
