May 23rd, 2007 - We came dinner at the Terried Sake House, a Japanese restaurant in Santa Monica. My father's friend Ramesh also joined us for dinner. We were here to celebrate my grandma's 60th birthday. The restaurant is a small place, very simple but the food is very good. My parents were surprised that they did not have a high-chair for me which meant, I had complete freedom to run around. I spent part of the evening on the stool and part of the evening on Santa Monica Blvd. I entertained the passers-by on the street with my big smiles and loud screams. |
By the time we got home I was really tired and fell asleep. We had a great day.

May 23rd, 2007 - Today is May 23rd. Its my grandma's 60th birthday. The 60th birthday is a special birthday and I wish I could have been there with my grandma. Since I could not be there, I sent my grandma a nice Black Forest birthday cake to her home in Bangalore. My mother also baked a chocolate cake at home. In the evening, we will be going out to dinner to celebrate her birthday. |

May 22nd, 2007 - Now that I have become more active, I have started to show my true colors. My mother neatly keeps all the laundry in a laundry basket and I love to go there and throw them all out. I have a nice fluid motion alternating my left and right hand as I throw the clothes out. Sometimes, I just jump into the basket and sit there. I love it in here.!!! |

18th May 2007 - I had to visit Dr Woo today for my 15 month check up. Its a routine check to see how I am doing. I am 33 1/2 inches tall and 24 pounds 2 oz heavy. I am very tall yet average weight for toddlers my age. I told him that I walk on my own comfortably, eat many things, babble something. The doctor said that I was fine and there was nothing to worry about. So far so good, I thought I was all done, but then Nurse Stacy came and gave me a shot. Bam!! I cried for a couple of minutes and then I was OK. She put a nice Batman band-aid on my arm. |
After that we went to Costco, Albertsons and did some of our weekly shopping. We then went to a new Persian restaurant called Javan Restaurant in Santa Monica. I liked the food and I entertained all the people around me. It was a fun day except for the shot.

May 17th, 2007 - My mother is very particular in keeping the house tidy (read my father is not that particular). My mother has already started training me on putting my clothes in the laundry basket. I also help her with folding the laundry but its usually means picking up all the clothes and tossing them around.
Climbing off the bed

May 15th, 2007 - As a new born baby, my parents would put me on the bed sometimes during the day. They would surround me with pillows to make sure I would not fall. Early on it was not a problem because I was not able to turn, but once I reached 5-6 months, I began to turn and it became more dangerous. They stopped putting me on the bed since they. Now that I am a little older, I have learnt to get off the bed myself and not hurt myself. Click on the video to watch me in action.
