Ishaan is growing up fast

Ishaan has made very good progress in past one month.

Teething : His top two teeth are almost out and now we can feel the bottom two teeth as well. He is very much interested in different types of food now. He comes to eat/taste whenever he sees us eating. Besides his regular food (fruits, veggies, khichdi), we have offered him pizza, methi/stuffed paratha, cheese, some snacks, cake, chocolate, ice cream and some indian sweets like shera, lapsi, etc. He has liked most of the things. We have noticed though that he likes spicy food.

Walking : About a month back Ishaan was just taking 2-3 baby steps, but since last week, he has started walking like toddlers. If he falls down, instead of crawling, he gets up on his own and starts walking. So, walking has now become his primary means of getting from one place to another. I am happy because he is growing up and achieving milestones. Walking also means less torn pants (Yes !! he has torn 4 pants in 1 month - all torn at knees). However, this also means it is going to be difficult to hold him in one place for some time. Gaurav and I are afraid of how we will contain him in the small space in the airplane on our upcoming trip to India in January - we just burst out laughing every time we try to think about it. God save the fellow passengers :)

Talking: He says words like JheJhe, mummy, mamma, mummum, dada, daddy, baoon (for balloon) and lots of other sounds. I don't think he knows what mummy/mamma or daddy/dada means yet because he just randomly says them. Sometimes, it also feels like he says 'Kavya'.
