Look how far we've come my baby ... (taking a cue from shaniya twain i suppose)

So.. Here are a few milestones that Viv seems to have achieved since..

1. The first social smile at 6 weeks that was a total delight for everyone involved..
2. The smile has quickly tuned into suble laughter now :)
3. Can follow objects and is extremely fascinated by curtains.. (go figure!)
4. His sleeping pattern still sends me into a frenzy as hes an angel one day and sleeps at 9 to wake up only at 6, but other times will not budge till 1 am
5. Can definitely recognise his mom and mine :)
6. Thinks his dad is the "Wipro Uncle" who comes home in the evenings :D
7. Is very partial to his right side, so much so that it has become the butt of joke in our house.. Everybody comes up with how hilarious it would be if he continues like this and becomes a cricketer or goes to school or ... (the list is endless)
8. I am singularly concerned with the above mentioned partiality, trying my best to make him see the world on his left side too :P
9. We seem to have finally decoded the cryptic cry's...when you have exhausted all the sane reasons, just give him his colic drops :p
10. Loves to kick...
11. Cannot hold his neck properly but would love to be held upright !
12. ooh's and aah's at everyone who talks to him, mostly in a complaining tone
13. Can make out when i am scolding him and promptly hollers to get me scolded by my mom..(clever tactic i must say !)
14. Has learnt to push things away, whether its his bottle or bib or me (gasp !)
15. Used to love hot water bath, now prefers slightly cold water, has a totally scandalized expression when the water is even little hot..:)
16. Hates power cuts, has single handedly made my mom to get the UPS for the entire house and an AC for his room (a feat that we couldn't achieve in fifteen odd years !)
17. And last but not the least - has finally outgrown his newborn sized clothes !! yeaaa :) (but slightly sad too coz we hardly used them more than a couple of times each. sheeshh how fast they grow !)
