Playtime with my One year old
My 1 year old is a busy body. He is always on the move, picking up things, throwing others around and tasting everything he can get his hands on.
Playtime with my son are especially special!. Its amazing what little things can amuse a baby!.. For instance, the other day, i had lined up all the stainless steel spoons/bowls/ tumblers/ plates along the kitchen floor, that he hammered to his heart's content for a good half an hour. The "Kitchen Orchestra" is one noisy game!. But beware of irritable neighbors when you do this, least you have someone calling you over the intercom!. Another favorite with my son, is "See- Saw", on my legs- it works as play as well as good exercise for the last few pounds of fat on my tummy." Dressing up Teddy" is fun too- he hates sharing his clothes- the game invariably ends as "Undressing Teddy".
Simple distractions like ringing a bell, playing with jingling key chains and making dance patterns to smoothing music on a blank wall with a torch light are a hit with my son.
A terrace ladder is fun too!. Its like an infant "jungle gym". He goes dizzy with happiness as he sticks his head in and out between the ladder steps.
An evergreen play idea is "Peek-a-Boo". He never tires of it.
Babies don't often play what you want them to play!.. Watching them play is fun too!. My son can go on for ages just pulling things out of boxes and throwing them back in!.

The Resurrection
I'm back!..after 9 months of child bearing and 1 year into motherhood.. i can finally say.. what a year it was!..The joy of carrying my son in my arms on the hospital bed soon progressed to sleepless nights, endless sessions of breast ಫೀಡಿಂಗ್, changing diapers and later running after a crawling infant. Surprisingly, the memories have faded fast- i can hardly remember how i coped with those "colicky nights|" or balanced my work and home. Of course, I could not have done it without the support of my mother- i shall forever be indebted to her.
The cuckoo shall call again! ಶೋರ್ಟ್ಲ್ಯ್!
