Seven Months of FUN FUN FUN!!!

Hi Everyone~

Sorry it has been so long since my last post but I am a busy guy! :)

First of all I will tell you about some of the new stuff I have been doing.... I crawl like CRAZY and am ready to WALK! I take every chance I get to scale the furniture and walk myself along it. It is soooo much fun! No teeth yet but I do get cranky at night so I think my top two are coming in. I have tried eating tons of stuff like brussel sprouts, avacados, carrots and sweet potatoes. My mommy and daddy make all my food for me.. It looks like hard work!

Over the past few weeks I have enjoyed visits with my cousins in BC- I got to meet my new one- Saavin... He's a cutie!

I went with Mommy to Winnipeg for a couple weeks. She worked on her thesis and I got to spend time with my grandparents... They fought over who got to watch me!!! hahaha.
I celebrated my 7th month birthday over there and enjoyed a Winnipeg tradition- a Jeanie's Cake!

We came back and celebrated Father's Day ( a week late- but Daddy didn't mind- he's the best!)
We are back to the "norm" around here... Playgroup, meeting up with friends and cousins, swimming and doing family stuff. I have been to 2 birthday parties too.. One for my cousin Jaya and the other for my cousin Jahan! The weather here has been great for the most part and I am outside everyday! Today it was FREEZING and I had to wear a warm hat and hoodie!!!

Mommy and Daddy celebrated their third wedding anniversary on July 2nd. They bought themselves a BBQ and patio furniture since they have the space to set it up! They already had 2 cookouts!!!

There are some pictures and videos below! Enjoy...
Love Always,
Kailas

And so the crawling begins!

Kailas has been semi-mobile for a couple months. He started off sitting up (when we would sit him down) at about 4 months. A couple weeks after that he would start moving on his bum and scoot around. He was rolling about the same time so it was a choice between scooting or rolling to get the toys that he wanted. He has been getting up on all fours for about a month now. Over the last week and a half he has been moving both his arms and knees! And so the crawling begins...
Check out his video:


And a P.S. It was requested that I put up the video of his first day of Green Beans. Notice how he doesn't like mom's cooking and spits it out in Daddy's face!

Video Blog Day

Please enjoy a few videos of Kailas over the past few weeks.

First is his swimming experience at the Tot Pool. We have been going every Sunday and he seems to like looking around, splashing and kicking his feet. He is turning into quite the water baby! It has been a nice family outing that is fairly inexpensive. We are also slowly getting used to showering, rinsing him off and playing tag team with him so we can all get dressed-- one needs to have some sort of strategy!



The second video is in his new Jolly Jumper. He tried this model today at playgroup (one of the other moms was nice enough to bring her daughter's for Kailas to try out). I ended up going on Craigslist and finding one for a quarter of the price at Toys R Us. As you can see HE LOVES IT! The only thing is... where do we store it?!!

Happy Second Birthday Einstien!

Today is Einstein's birthday and boy what a fun night we had! Mom made us party hats and we had cupcakes!

My cousins Jaya and Amaran came over and they gave Einstein a birthday treat- they are not as scared of him as they were before and Einstein really likes them!

I must apologize for not blogging as often as I had promised. I swear- I have an excuse!

First Nana Mohinder visited on his way back from India then Amma Linda was here for a while and then we headed off to Winnipeg for a few weeks! I had Easter in Winnipeg then Daddy, Mommy and I went to Grand Forks so Daddy could defend. So all I saw was that he was wearing a tie and he did a big presentation in front of a bunch of people. According to Mommy he passed and now we all have to call him "Dr" :) Congrats Daddy- you're a PHARMACOLOGIST... whatever that is.


While in Grand Forks, I had a great visit with Uncles Andy, Javi, Auntie Susan (they came from Brookings, SD/ Chicago, Il/ Boston, MA) , all my friends in Grand Forks and the Graduate School. I even got babysat by "Grandma Kris" (Mommy's old boss)in our room at the hotel while they went out to celebrate! Oh yea.. I also had fun at the the splash park at the hotel!


Daddy headed back to BC while Mommy and I stayed in Winnipeg. We had lots of visits with friends and family and we stopped in Calgary for the weekend on our way home. We stayed with Auntie Jenelle, Uncle Jesse and Maori. I had a blast playing with Maori, even though she thought my name was Charlie...

Now that we are home, Mommy is trying to finish up her Masters thesis so we can go to Winnipeg/ Grand Forks again this summer. She is also looking for a job now that she has her BC teaching license.


These days we are still going to play group and storytime. Mommy and I also went to Salsababies and the Vancouver Zoo this week with my friend Nateo (he is exactly one week older than me) and his Mommy Sharon.

I also got a new cousin this week (he is still a "No Name" like I was when I was born) so I am not the youngest anymore! He was born on Sunday- Mother's Day. We went to visit him on Monday and I was in awe... He is so tiny and so cute! Congrats Uncle Bunny and Auntie Jag!


I am a pretty big guy these days... I think I am 29 in and 19 lbs. I sit up on my own and I eat solids! (I will post some videos below so you can see how big I have gotten) I can hold myself up on all fours and I am trying to crawl! I will be 6 months old on MONDAY!! Can you believe it?


I will write again soon. Enjoy all the pictures and videos!
