Kavya (3 yr 4 months) & Ishaan (3 months)

Time is flying by really fast. Kavya is 3 yrs 4 months and Ishaan is 3 months old already.

Kavya has started full-time school. She still offers resistance at drop-off time, but after that she is fine. She is learning new things everyday She has started conversing more and more in English now and her vocabulary is also improving. Sometimes, her accent makes it difficult to understand what she is saying - These ABD kids.. (No..Not ABCD - Kavya is not confused - at least I would like to think so :) ). Lately, she enjoys riding her bike, coloring (she is getting good at it), working on her computer (mainly www.starfall.com and typing) and watching Dora and Mickey Mouse. She is learning to write now and has also started swimming lessons.

Ishaan has started responding and giving big and repeatable smiles. He has also started holding on to things. If you hold him side ways, he clungs on to your clothing or hair really tight :) When lying on his back, he pushes hard on his heels and 'rotates' in all directions. He is a big bundle of joy and fun to be around now. He likes to talk and often responds back when you talk to him. He observes things around him very keenly. He likes to blow bubbles and so I call him 'Bablu' :)

Kavya enjoys being around Ishaan - playing with him and feeding him. However, sometimes she also seems to be jealous - she doesn't say anything (probably because she is too little to realize that she is jealous), but you can sense that from her behavior - she will either become very quiet or upset or talk in angry tone. I am hoping that few months down the road they will play well with each other (of course with occasional fights).

Kavya and Ishaan are keeping us busy. But it is fun (and sometimes tiring too :) ) to watch them grow.
