Dec 9th, 2006 - Its Saturday morning which means my father will be home all day. He woke up early this morning (thanks to my jet lag) and went out to get some work done on the car. Once he came back, it was time for my bath. When I last had a bath in the US, I was not able to sit upright and so I used to get my bath in the kitchen sink. But now I am able to sit upright and so my parents placed me in my bath tub, filled it up with water and some rubber duckies. I really enjoyed this tremendously. I sat there splashing the water and played with the ducks. My grandma had given the ducks for me. After about 15 minutes, I had to stop playing. I am really looking forward to the next bath.

Dec 4th, 2006 - December 4th, 2006 is the longest day in my short life. It never seemed to end. We left for Singapore at around midnight and reached Singapore at 6 in the morning. We had a three hour stopover and we walk around the airport looking at the Christmas decorations. My parents had breakfast at the Indian restaurant, Karavalli, which offers good Indian food at Changi Airport.

After that we were on our way to Tokyo, which was a 7-8 hour flight. I slept most of te way. It was a fairly pleasant flight and so I could sleep. The Narita airport was pretty nice and we got in around 5 PM. Our flight was leaving in about 1 hour so my parents had to do a rush job at changing my diapers.

From Narita, it was the last leg onto LAX. We took off at around 5 PM on the 4th and it was a 12 hour flight. The pilot said he would cut the time by two hours. It was nice flight too and we finally arrived at LAX at 10 AM on the 4th,. Take off at 5 PM and arrive at 10 AM on the same day. How did I travel back in time? Guess, a geography lesson awaits me in the future.

The Boy is back in town

Dec 5th, 2006 - I am finally back at home. My body clock is all messed up due to the time difference changes, but I think I will recover soon. Its been a quiet day for the most part. I was sleeping for most of the day. Since we had gone to India for the last few weeks, the refrigerator was empty and we went to Albertsons, the local grocery store in the evening. This the first time, I have been to this store and its also the first time I sat in a cart too. When I went to India, I was not able to sit upright, but in India, I learnt to sit up and crawl as well. My parents took precautions to sanitize the cart using Purell. I seemed to dislike sitting in the cart. I think I got spoiled in India with everyone lifting me up. As you can see from the pictures, its a little cold here in LA and my cheeks have turned pink.
