He had Idli!!

My mom made idli for breakfast and so we decided to give the little guy a taste of what we eat. He's already had rice before, so the urad dal is the only new ingredient. I mashed it up and mixed it with a little formula. He seemed to like it and finished one whole idli. Since it was a bit chunky and hence a new texture for him, he seemed to tire of eating it after a while! But he did a superb job gumming and swallowing it.

Now that belly crawling has been perfected, he is practising getting onto his knees. He then rocks forward and back, and moves further back as if trying to sit down. You really can watch a baby an entire day as they perfect their art!

We have realised that he LOVES going out. All one has to say is 'bye bye' and he just jumps to them and keeps eyeing the door. He gets very anxious if we dress him up and then take time to ready ourselves. He's been a good boy when we have been doing a round of some restaurants in the city.

His fav past time now is to fake cough and then wait for us to cough in return. It goes back and forth till he finds something else that interests him!
