...yep, Deven has started solids! But if you'd been reading the blog, you knew that already. He's had rice, bananas, and carrots so far - and according to Yogesh, is "definitely a brahmin" because he prefers sweets. Unfortunately, he's also teething...and that means ANYTHING chewable is fair game as a teething toy. Including his 'first food source'...yep, you get the picture. OUCH!
We've had a whirlwind of activity lately. We went to our first kids birthday party (where he got to sit in a big tub full o' beans...yes, lima beans...) this weekend; last weekend we ran in our first 5k with the jogging stroller - the Banana Chase Race (coming in a snail's-pace ahead of a few Bananas); we've had visits from friends Chris, Steve, Nimisha, Gurjeet, Ameya, Supreet, and Danielle; and we've hosted Noah, our share-care-partner, who will start coming over almost full-time in early October.
HELLO UNCLE HELLY!
Yep, Deven finally looks like me; or at least like my side of the family. I can't pinpoint what it was, but I was looking at him about a week ago, and he looked quite a bit like my mom's oldest brother, my Uncle Helly. I laughed when I thought of it - and was quite excited! Too bad he's already outgrown the (6-month-sized) cute outfit that Uncle Helly and Aunt Carolyn sent him.
As you can see from the photos, all's well with Daadi. She and Potaa (grandson) continue to be best friends, and spend their days cooing to each other. Life's pretty good if you're a 5 1/2 month old boy in this household.
Enjoy the video from Deven's Ganapati birthday celebration:
I've got 2 more business trips coming up - and I'm not feeling very well lately (stomach issues-aargh) - so we'll see how things work out with more pumping on the road and such. Wish me luck! :)
