Kavya pretends to be a baby ..

For most part, Kavya is out of the jealousy phase and seems to have accepted her little baby brother.. But end of one phase is only the beginning of another :) So, now is her new baby phase. She likes to pretend and be treated like a baby - just like Ishaan. Here are certain things that she does :

* When we go out for a walk in the evening, she would usually ride her bike and Ishaan would be in the stroller. However, for last few days, she would say that she is also a baby and hence she also wants to go in a stroller. So, we end up going with two strollers..
* She had started drinking her milk out of a regular mug with a straw, but now she insists on drinking out of a sippy cup and that too while lying in Gaurav or my lap - as if feeding a baby with a bottle.
* If I play peek-a-boo or something baby-ish with Ishaan that makes Ishaan smile/laugh, she wants me to do the same with her and when I do that, she also laughs.
* She wants to be carried around the house and upstairs for bed time just like Ishaan.
* She likes to eat Ishaan's finger food (those small Gerber puffs). If I give her some when I give those to Ishaan, she will quickly finish hers and then come to take all of Ishaan's. But lately, we have started telling her that she needs to be a good sister and not a mean sister and so she will eat some herself and also feed Ishaan some :)

Hopefully, she will grow out of this phase as Ishaan grows..
