There is a reason why Time flies is SUCH a cliched expression. You just cannot help marveling at the passage of time every now and then. It is always amazing to see how far one has come, how much life has changed and how everything around has made you a different person. Perhaps not in pure essence, but new roles and responsibilities bring out facets of your personality you have never known. The dynamics of relationships make you evaluate and reevaluate what you always believed to be right. You keep discovering the shades of grey in pretty much every situation.
Okay! I have no idea why I started getting philosophical here! :) I had decided to sleep on time for a change, but I guess I am on a blogging high right now and I might as well make the most of it! :)
Cub turns 5 in two weeks and it is so hard to believe it. I mean he is regular little boy now leaving behind pretty much every trace of babyness behind. I will write about the year gone by in another post. This is my attempt at getting our photos - His and Mine - in one post for a walk down the memory lane. For my sake.
This is when I could actually sit up and hold Cub two days after his birth! :)
Cub's first taste of chocolate at probably around 4months! :)
And first shaadi attended at around the same time!
This used to be our favourite position to enjoy each other's company! :)
And that is how he slept quite often! :)
Completely painless at that age. We would take him everywhere and he would eben sleep on tabletops! :) This is at one hole-in-the-wall kinda Subway! :)
His first taste of coffee at around 5months! :D
By month six there were smiles galore! :)
I had forgotten I used to this sometimes!
We had a maalishwaali and I would this occasionally as well!
Making conversation that he had started understanding!
I just realized that after spending over an hour, I have managed to scan just year one! :) I guess there are going to multiple parts of this kinda thing! :D
You were quite the cutiepie, my darling Cub! :)

Lovely post. And as always lovely pictures.
And what do you mean by "You were quite the cutiepie" - He still is :)
5 years?? wow!!! And lvoely set of pics and u know what? With these pics I was reminded of me & Arnav too. He will be two in a month and I dunno where time has flown.
And u made him taste coffee & choclate that early??? wow!
Luv luv luv it! Waiting for more to come :)
And err Smita, Arnav is gng to be two already? And here I thought the 1st bday had just gotten over!
Much more fun to see these photos through your eyes, than simply browse through Picasa myself. Reminded of how special we felt, seeing that 6 month smiling photo of his.
Year 1 and 2 was pure joy, only later it became slightly about "raising him right". As a commitment-phobic, never imagined such happiness would ever be mine. Continuing with the cliches, couldn't have asked for a better family to spend my life with!
Why "were" the cutie-pie? He still IS! And am so glad to see you smiling despite two kids (yes, am terrified!) and you are quite the star in my eyes.
Keep the good work going and happy happy b'day to the Cub of course!
Cheers
Meera
