it is time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Photo from my Bumpy time in my last few weeks before he became Cubby! :)


to bring out this Tee again!


Yup! Some people never learn from their mistakes, do they?! Hehe!


We are mighty thrilled ofcos. The news or what is traditionally called "good" news was wanted yet unexpected making the whole thing even sweeter!


I found out only at 10weeks! Did a home test because I couldn't see my toes too well! :p am glad its pregnancy weight gain wonly! haha! It l'il over 12 weeks now and I am glad I had to keep this news in my tummy only for 2 weeks. Ofcos i told a whole of people as soon as i found out! ;)


Cubby is still trying to figure out concept of 2B (yes that's what baby is being called! Bumpy 2 was what was on Papa's mind, but I read it as To-be as well!)


Cub does hug my tummy and kiss it when requested but I am still not sure how cool he is with the idea! Only time will tell i guess! :) But we do say Thank You, Bhaiyya from 2B every single time and now he has come t expect it in return of the kisses!


So keep us in your thoughts and prayers and wish us luck!! :)


Cheers!

the Translator is here!!

and no, its the Google baba's translator I am talking about here!


We have been in Bangalore for sometime now, but the local language Kannada has eluded us. I do understand a smattering of it now. Between my Kannada and Amma's Hindi, we usually manage OK. But it is still far cry from being enough to have decent conversation or even fight with auto guy or give cabbie directions. M is even worse and his knowledge is far from even basic. Not that mine is any better, but still! * Note to self: Attend those conversational Kannada classes!


Cubby has been getting more and more proficient in the state language though and it is almost as strong as his Hindi, which is pretty good if you ask me. Amma is usually singing praises about how he speaks perfect Kannada etc. But how are we to know?! :p


So yesterday M was telling Amma to put Cub's latest fav Winnie bedsheet and pillow cover (recently gifted to him) on his gadda and put him to sleep. Amma was trying to explain something to M which he could not figure out for life of him. Amma's DiL whose Hindi is marginally better tried to pitch in and explain it too. She did her best and told M "Woh abhi thanda (cold) hai!"


Cubby exasperated by this lack of proper communication decided it is time to step in and do the needful. He told M" Woh bol rahi hai - It is WET!"


M couldn't stop laughing and neither could I when he told me about the incident!


So our l'il translator is here and we fear auto guys a little less now! ;)
