My everyday schedule : I get up by 5, cook breakfast, lunc..pack..blah blah..feed..blah blah, drop addi at daycare and reach office by 9. So my plan during weekends is usually get up by 10. then laze around like i’ve eaten dozen burgers for breakfast. But its my home. This is what happened.
Addu gets up at 5. I open my one eye, i see him smiling at me. I know he got up. I quickly shut my eyes, pretending to be asleep.
‘ Shiaaaaa ‘
‘zzzzzzzzzzz’
‘shiaaaaaa uppuuuuuu’
‘zzzzzzzz’
‘shiaaaaaaa ‘ , he puts his finger in my node. I turn the other way around and sleep.
‘Shiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa’, and thaaaaaap, he hits me on my face
I get up, fully startled.
‘Addu, padukoooooo’ , and addu starts climbing on me.
I see papa snoring like crazy.
‘ Addu..papaaaa, see papaaa’. And addu goes, very cutely ‘ Paaapaaaaa’. Yeah, why am i the only one to suffer.
Addu goes, tries waking up papa. Papa does not respond. And this is what he does.
Both legs on each side, he puts his bum, direct on papa’s face, and starts jumping.
‘ EE addu, u ass. I can smell the susu from your diaper, get out’ , addu still telling papapapa ‘ Adduuuuuuu..’ and finally papa is up. I get an extra 10 min sleep \m/ .
I hear husband’s remark ‘ At least he dint slap me’. I really dint care ๐
Addu does potty, and after cleaning him up, i start searching for diapers. I cant find any.
‘ EE gul. U dint stitch the diapers? ‘ Yes, u heard me right. Its stitch.
‘ Aa i forgot, i’l do it now’, and saying that, husband goes to stitch the diapers.
So this is what happened. Addu likes wearing pants/trousers/diapers/papa’s pants/mummy’s shorts/socks/shirts/any cloth through his legs. He just does not know how to.
Whenever i give him a diaper, he takes it with such enthusiasm, puts one leg in one hole, the other leg also in the same hole, gets that feeling of accomplishment, and starts running around. So The number of diapers he tore that way is far more than number of diapers he even used. may be 5:1 ratio. And you all know, diapers are expensive. So , yes, the husband starts stitching them ๐
Addu likes opening and closing the milk cartons. He has spilled milk a number of times, even then he opens the fridge, opens the carton, takes it out, then puts it back, closes the carton, closes the fridge. Dont know for what joy though.
So one day, when i emptied the carton, i gave it to him so that he could play. He takes it, happily opens/closes and whatever, opens the fridge, puts it back where it used to belong, closes the fridge, and walks away seriously. We’ve become big!
So this guy likes rain. Like me. He sees a rhyme with rain, he starts yelling rain rain. He goes into the bathroom, and sees the shower, and starts ‘rain rain’. So Papa was drinking water from the bottle, and addu starts to grab it. Realising the mess it would cause, and thinking what if addu was actually thirsty, papa gives the bottle with very little water. Addu takes the bottle, puts it on his head, and inverts it. Yes, the water falls on his head. And he immedietely utters ‘Rainnnuuu’ .
I’ve been showing addu rhymes since he was 6 months. So he is well versed with ALL the rhymes in appu series, so much, that he is dead bored of them already. So i started showing him psy songs/crazy frog (some of them he is bored), and the newest, who let the dogs out, and aqua. And when he does not want that, and he wants rhymes, he gets up, turns round and round, and starts singing, ‘ asha busha down’ (with hands in ballet style dancing). And i immedietely put ringa ringa roses, and he gleams.
Preferences, when i put a rhyme that he does not like, he starts slamming the laptop till the rhyme changes ๐
WIll keep adding to the list. Well. My weekend was epic! ๐
