Some tit bits from bachu’s converions

Bachu: mummy nani house jaana hai

Me: nani hourse  kyon jaana hai?

Bachu: nani house sai baba mandir jaana hai (whenever bachu is at nani house, nani takes her to sai baba mandir)

 

Bachu: puchu ne bangle pehna hai

Me: acha puchu ne bangle pehna hai

Bachu: haan !! dadi ne puchu ko bangle pehnaya

Dadaji: nahi switch ko touch nahi karna hai. Mana kiya hai na (when bachu is trying to switch on an electric point)

Bachu: smiles and says: to band kar doon (she she’ll promptly switch off the elctric point that she had switeched on)

Pranaam dadaji

Bachu has learnt to be so diplomat since the beginning that we at times wonder from where has she picked it up (none in our family are diplomatic). Bachu knows how to move from calling dada to dadaji to daadu depending on dadaji’s mood. Though she uses the same rules with others as well but the person to whom bachu maska’s the most is dadaji. If dadaji doesn’t let her have her way even after the transition form dada to dadu the  the ultimate maska is to bend down and touch dadaji’s feet and hug him or do sakshaat pranaam. Phir to there is no way that dadaji will say no to bachu for any thing.

brush my teeth

Oh I'm brushing my teeth on top,

it's so much fun I hate to stop,

but while I'm brushing my teeth

and having so much fun,

I never let the water run.

No I never let the water run.

Devaangi loves to brush her teeth. About 2 months back we brought the first set of tooth brush and tooth paste for Devaangi. We wanted to get Devaangi into a habit of brushing her teeth. After initial reluctance that lasted a few days to a few weeks, bachu has been so much taken up by the whole brushing ritual and in addition to her 4 tooth brushes, Devaangi can also be found picking up and using daadi’s 2 brushes as well as mom’s brush. Phir kya hai every morning maa and dadi have to hunt for their respective  toothbrush!!!

The teeth brushing activity starts when bachu wakes up in the morning and then continues throughout the day. The first brushing session of the day starts with tooth paste on the brush which bachu swallows without any delay or lingering. The brushing sessions of the rest of the day happen with plain brush in bachu’s mouth and saliva dripping out!!!!

Ab to bachu’s standard line on entering the bathroom is bash chahiye (I want the brush)

I love biting

Bachu has been biting a lot now a days… The most common victim is daadi followed by the maid and then me. All you have to do is either annoy bachu or don’t pay attention to her. Bachu simply will come and bite you. She gets some sort of thrill by biting and you must see the joy on her face when bachu bites some one!!! Looks like she is teething at present!!!
