It's Been A Long Time !
Yes, It’s been a long time since I have written a blog . My computer is just recovering from a major health problem called “Virus”, so not been able to blog for quite some time now. Jelly keeps us active and laughing with her cute pranks. There is not a place she does not reach, including climbing the windows from the cot. She loves to chatter all the time. Either she is trying to repeat whatever we talk or if that’s not easy for her at least imitate us. At times I and SM speak in English so she is trying to pick up a few words from that too.
Aryans mom has tagged me with some homework. So here I’m taking up the tag and continuing the post. This seems like one big tag so I have kept a bottle of juice and some snacks to last a whole day; I need some strength to do this ;-)

Favorite smell: Jelly and SM after a bath.

Finish this statement- “If I had a lot of money I’d….”: Invest half for the future and use the rest to travel round the world.
Do you drive fast: Only if I’m in a hurry.
Do you sleep with a stuffed animal? : Been used to it for 3 and a half year with SM and past 1 and a half year with Jelly :D

Crazy 8 Tag
Inspired by Moppets mom I’m taking up her tag as Jelly’s 14 month update. It’s been really long since I updated about her. So here goes the Crazy 8 tag from Moppets mom.
8 Things Jelly is passionate about:
1. Aooo as in Aero plane. The moment she hears the low pitched roar of a random aeroplane flying above, we have to rush out of the house with her, for her to get a view of it, else all hell breaks loose.....
2. Eating anything off the stove in whatever state it is - cooked or uncooked.
3. Tractor- takta as she calls it.
4. Jumping outside the main door in a fraction of a second and crawling in the veranda when she can very well walk.
5. Plucking flowers off the creepers that are in the verandha and in a second making a paste of it, then asking for another one.
6. Hiding behind curtains and playing peek-a- boo.
7. Making grandpa an elephant and riding on his back.
8. Me of course, it’s gone to such an extent that SM keeps singing “Mary had a little lamb”.
8 Things she does that drives me/us crazy:
1. Not allowing me to even use the toilet once I’m back home from work .
2. Even though she is hungry, she absolutely refuses to stay in a place and eat.
3. She loves her formula but refuses to drink it when awake.
4. Hates to change her clothes, if she is undressed we go nuts to dress her and vice versa.
5. No toy is supposed to be in the toy bag. It has to be strewn around the room, the best part being she never plays with a single toy.
6. She loves to imitate people, well it is fun but imagine you cannot even cough or sneeze without this one following your actions.
7. The moment she notices any clothes neatly folded and piled she has to open it and use it to mop the floor.
8. The moment she does something naughty she gives a very sheepish grin or starts crying (well actually acts like she is crying), just so that we don't scold her for her antics.
8 Things Jelly says often:
1. Amma(when she has some work that needs my help)
2. Attha!(Complaining about her dad scolding her)
3. Appa(her grandpa)
4. Kaaka(crow)
5. Kaa(Car)
6. Bow bo(Dog)
7. Aoo(aeroplane),Aata(Auto),Takta(tractor)
8. The most frequent being Taata(tata for going out).
8 Books Jelly read recently:
1. My vegetables book(it actually tastes better than the veggies I give her I suppose)
2. Any book that is easy to be torn into bits.
3. Books than can be sent flying from one end to the other end of the room.
4-8. I have decided not to buy any books till she develops some interest towards it unlike the above.
8 songs Jelly listens to over and over
1. Do you wanna partner (from Partner).
2. Darde Disco (OSO)
3. Bhool Bhulaiya title track
4. Nagada(Jab we met)
5. Hum to Aise Hain - Laaga Chunari Mein Daag
6. Twinkle Twinkle( in my horrible voice)
7. Chubby cheeks(again in my dirty voice)
8. Kuch Iss Tarah(theme song of one of the serials on Sony Tv, even if she has started dozing this song would make her stand up and shake her little butt to it)
Her choice of music is totally out of the world, she loves those loud item numbers and all of us at home love soft melodies. No Idea where she got this from??
8 Things that makes Jelly the person she is:
1. The most attractive smile that can melt any heart, even if it come after something really naughty.
2. Total foodie just like the dad; loves to keep munching on assorted snacks.
3. Quick witted, imitates people at a lightening speed.
4. A true loud speaker, one scream can make the whole neighborhood wonder what is happening in the household (her way of getting things done her way).
5. Just started walking a month ago but runs around the house in lightening speed now.
6. Hates being carried or even touched by strangers but at the same time loves to put up a show of her talents in front of them.
7. Loves to cuddle and to be cuddled (a very positive change in her cause she completely hated it for the first 7-8 months).
8. As soon as any of us lie down she manages to climb on our tummy and starts riding an imaginary horse or elephant.
8 People I think should do this tag (Kids or Moms, whichever way you like to do it)
Shruthi
Aryan’s Mom
Rohini
My list kind of ends there , so anybody reading this could take it up the tag along with the above 3.

Picture of the year 2007
Taken up a tag from Shruthi of http://nychthemeron.blogspot.com/ and posting my favorite picture of the year 2007.
A sunset shot taken from the banks of the backwaters in Kerala.
A sunset shot taken from the banks of the backwaters in Kerala.
The reason I chose this picture as the picture of the past year……….The first vacation taken out with family and friends after “Jelly” was born. Another reason I chose this picture was because I got into the frame a houseboat sailing by as the sun was getting all ready to take a dip into the peaceful ocean far away.
We had a great vacation both at the houseboat and the resort. During the 4 days of the vacation we lost complete touch with the outer world, we were forever surrounded by water and just water. Jelly totally freaked out at the kids pool in the resort, she was just 8 months old but still managed to have a blast.
It will be one vacation that will remain in my memory forever……………..
Anybody reading this could take up the tag and let us enter your world through your pictures.
