9th Nov, 2011

I wonder sometimes… how people around me blush or laugh out loud on my small mischievous acts …. the things may be small like my witty responses… weird logics….. dramatic expressions….or suspicious acts …sometimes i feel that everything that I does makes people happy around me….

I am always surprised when i hear a new word… like today…. ‘bhabhi’ that is how chacha ji addressed mom… and i was like…bhabhi…hahaha…. chacha says ….bhabhi…..hahaha…. and when i know that  i am getting good response and people are amused by what i do…. i do it again…again and over again…. till someone says “arhaan! bus kar” and this is the normal routine for every new word that  I over hear….

These days I have started speaking lots of punjabi words… .and as usual I always do what someone requests me not to do…… like “khlara pauna aa”, “uppar charna aa’ …”main ni neeni karni’ ……’main hit karna aa’…. and you knwo the usual trick that my elders try to use does not work …. for example when someone say … arhaan don’t do this… gande bache karde hunde aa aaidain…. and instead of stopping … i will say….. “arhaan ganda bacha aa”…. and “main ganda bacha banana aa”

mama ji came to our place for her dentist appointment and i was playing with him like mad as usual.

today I was playing with jassi did and I hit her and when in the evening dad was trying to explain to me that hitting someone is really bad…. and baba ji does not like it… i was quick to turn to mom and said…. don’t hit me …. baba ji will be mad at you….and they exploded with laughter….. i guess they were supposed to teach me something here…..isn;t it? ..

Happy Birthday Muskaan Di… we talked to her last night and talked today as well…. and here is one of her photo from the day.

11th Nov 2011

its has been a special day… its 11-11-2011…. and did i do something special here… well everything that i do is special … isn’t it…. but I was so much busy today that i don’t recall anything….but one thing is sure….

these days…. whenever someone does not listen to me… he or she is ganda bacha for me…. and you will probably hear from me twice or thrice everyday… when i will say…..”papa ganda bacha”….”dadi ganda bacha”….”jassi ganda bacha”…”gugu ganda bacha”….. “mummy ganda bacha”…… or even “sariyan ganda bacha”…..

well tomorrow we will celebrate muskaan di’s birthday…. which was on 10th but we could not celebrate as mom was busy.

My wild imagination, mischievous  thoughts, curious exploration, unusual thinking and abundant physical energy keeps me going these days… and in the process things happens that no one likes….

like today… when mom was thinking go to bed… I ran towards the stairs… and when she tried to catch me…. i thought of giving her a tricky move and I started climbing the stairs and when I turned around … I fell down and my head hit the stair case….. the middle part of the forehead…. naturally i cried…. but still was trying to trick mom… but finally she got hold of me… and brought me to bed… but my creative juices for the day were still struggling… so I asked papa to sleep with me while first reading two stories and then making a story (something related with dada ji and scooter)…. finally slept on his arm….. with ‘robra’ (slight bump) on my forehead…. 

6th-7th Nov, 2011 November 7, 2011

6th Nov.: 

today i went for grocery shopping  with my parents… and wanted them to by an electric scotter….. which is meant for adults i suppose… it was too hard for them to convince me …. but finally i got another Halloween dress and calmed down…

the interesting part was when we were buying my night suit…. these days i have started speaking punjabi… and punjabi is typical…. the sentences end with the wording like…. ”ਵਾਸਤੇ ਆ”… “ਹੁੰਦਾ ਆ”….”ਕਰਦਾ ਆ” and when mom was asking me to select the night suit… they asked my opionion on a grey one which had small red lines in them… and it seems little pinkish… and i was quite in retaliating….. eh pink aa….. mom said “nahi putt, this is red” and then i questioningly asked with a raised nose  ”ਇਹ boys ਵਾਸਤੇ ਆ”….. and my parent’s laughter could not be controlled…… and they were literally laughing till the time we reached home

7th Nov:

Today,  I had to be taken to the emergency again…..

In the evening, guneet mami, anmol bhai and nehchal didi came to our house. i was so excited to see anmol bhai…. and played with with the ball, racket…. and anything that I found…. i was so so excited…. and in that excitement…. when he was holding my arms… i pulled with the greatest of force…. and something went wrong on my elbow…. it was terrible… i immediately hold my elbow… and said… papa it hurts…papa hold me in his lap and thought that it will go away after some time…. he helped me to soothe this arm a little…. but i was able to move my arm that freely… it was terrible. i was crying like never before…. and today I was not  even saying  my pet words when i get hurt lightly “no…oh…no…i am fine…. nonu is ok“…. which means i was really in pain

Finally, after waiting sometime….. he took me to the hospital….. we had to wait in line for about half an hour…. and  somehow i got the courage to stand on my own….. with my arm stiff…. fixed to my side…. with no moment at all….. and waited there patiently…… with my anxious face, glowing eyes with controlled tears, and my right hand holding my left elbow…….. mom asked me couple of times…..are you fine now… and my moving head told her everything…. and then when our turn came….. i cried a lot while removing the jacket…..it was serious… .and then nurse sent us to urgent care… where the doctor was really nice and intelligent… he straight way knew what the problem was…. .my elbow wwas pulled and one of my muscle or small bone was dislocated…. and he put it back to its normal position with a little massage….. and told me i am good to go… then we moved outside…. and was still not moving my arm….. but i think it was alright… coz i was not feeling the pain… and then papa asked me to catch him … .and i started running with my arms moving in the running mode. …. it was relief for my mom…. and especially for my dadi ma… who was at home.. and we called her and told that i was fine…. mom was curious if i am alright before coming back home from the hospital…. she asked me if i am alright while touching my right arm….. and we started laughing….coz i was hurt on my left arm….. and when papa was quick to point out….. I was like….”hahaha… momma don;t know it…papa know it….. not this one… this one… hahaha“…… and during the process… my mom said she will get me french fries if i move my arm….. and thus they had to when we were coming back home….

29-30th Oct 2011 October 30, 2011

hahahaha….. this is really fun….actually today when I was watching TV with dad…. there was an ad for ipad….. and i said… ‘papa see this is blackberry playbook’…. and dad told me that this is not blackberry playbook…. and said instead… it is an ipad…… I said…. “i want an ipad”…. dad said… no…. then I said…. ok mom will get me an ipad….. and papa denied that too… so i said “ok papa!! I will ask harpreet mama.. he will get me an ipad”

Today was a big day….. coz today….. harpreet mama came to my house….. so was neena bhuji and jassy mama ji and his family… .and we all had dinner together….. it was so much fun….. i helped mom to arrange for the dinner and moved the plates from the kitchen to the dinning area….. and best part was my fukri… when i did my night brush after the dinner to impress our guests….. that i do it appe-appe…..

slept very late… after listening to a Gandi story…. you know that is what i say to my papa these days… before sleep… papa i wanted to hear a gandi story… and then papa tell me dirty muddy dinasor story… or an elephant story that used to irritate everyone in the jungle….. i think he really make those stories… coz we never read them anywhere else……

on 30th….. evening …dinner was at jassi uncle’s house….. and i had it sitting on the dinning table … .and i ate it appe appe….. like a big boy….. enjoying….. and perhaps trying to impress….. as papa say it.. fukra…. and then jassi uncle lit some fireworks…. i wanted to see but did not want to lit them as i didn;t like those cracking sounds…. it was not fun…. or was it… am not clear….. love… waiting for tomorrow to enjoy the halloween… love

got a haircut…. coz i was afraid that dadi ma will go to india otherwise…. well!! that is what mom says….. and i sat down nicely… got a haircut…. and then when papa said we are done…. the first words out of my mouth were ”dadi!! u (will) not go india now?????”,…..

Diwali-2011 October 27, 2011

Diwali was on 26th…. it was a fun filled day….. mom was working from home today… and somehow i let her work … and didn;t disturb her…. which i do to dad… as i don’t let him work most of the time when he is at home….. 

It was so much fun… first dadi ma made laddoo for us….. In the evening, I wanted to be dressed as ‘sai’ …. with my sherwani pajami and then i wore that red pug of mine…….. tieing the pug is a tough job…. but i always…. let dad take ample time to tie a proper one…… with that nice indian dress….. i was ready for some photo shoot… and sitting cross legged on the sofa was my favourite pose…. dad clicked some photos…. then we were to go to shri gurudwara sahib… 

but first we planned to eat and have evening tea together with jassi uncle’s family….. we ate typical punjabi delicacies like samosa, jalebi etc. and then we  went to gurudwara…. it was so much rush there…..  I lit some candles with dad…. and then went inside… and after the usual stuff…. while taking prasad… when baba ji gave ma a little…. I was little annoyed….. at baba ji…. and said I want some more…. then said ….’papa… lets eat roti…..’ my usual attraction…. the langer….. 

came back home… and few fire crackers before some dance and then gave my parents tough time to go to sleep…. 

happy diwali everyone

Oct 2011 October 22, 2011

The days are fun…. with gugu didi….and dadi ma…

learning punjabi now a days….. my ganda aa, sona aa, aithe aa, othe aa…… have been quite frequent in my talk these days…. have learnt to sing satinder sartaj song sai ….well few lines…… and have started loving to gurudwara sahib….. and learnt to say “waheguru ji ka khalsa …waheguru ji ki fateh…..”….”satnam-waheguru”….. and i know that going ot gurudwara sahib means…. eating langer… and after matha …. i will ask my parents or dadi ma… dadi ma…. ladoo…. langer….. and we will always go there…..and eat…

Had two appointments with the doctor in london… and we drove there….  and when neena bhuji asked me if i missed her…. i said “see! i came” and everyone laughed….. and I am so expressive in showing my appreciations for good things … and when i saw neena bhuji’s newly built deck… i said “wao! this is nice papa” when entering the deck from teh kitchen door….. but I was brutally blunt on the design…. and said “this is not nice, this is teda (while looking at the design, where  corners were rounded off a little)”. The appreciations were short lived …. here are one of the photo that we clicked there……

Playing with blackberry playbook is also my favourite thing these days…..and i really like challenging shape matching games…. and dad always try to find something new for me….

After the letters now is the turn to learn or atleast recognise words… i can recognise my name along with that of papa and momma….. but the next word that i can recognise is the word “google”…. very apt….  and i really like google with extended oooooooooooos as in goooooooooooooooooooooooogle… .which comes on the bottom of a search page…. how i recognise this word…. because my it matches with my nick name that my parents love to call me…”gogol ” which i never paid attention to … .and proposed a self-selected nick name “nonu”…. which was given to me by my hapreet mama…. and ‘gogol’ is lost somewhere on the way…

my TV watching is reduced to minimum… may be 15 minutes to half an hour….and playing time have increased exponentially….. I have developed a routine… where i wake up early in the morning… at around 7, sleep at around 1 or 2 wake up at 5, and sleep at around 10 everyday with inbetween fun….. and play…… days are going at a leisurely  pace…..

Differentiating boys and girls is my topmost concern these days…. and I make it sure that ti don;t wear anything that is girly…. and i often say…. to girls (mom, dadi ma, gugu, jassi and dilpreet didi)…. no only boys boys… while playing with papa or jassi uncle…..

We went to buy my halloween dress.. .and i was determined to get super-bunny (blue-gray batman) dress, however when we bought it…. and dad tried the mask… I was so irritated from it scratching my face…. I shifted to another dress…. which one? wait till the halloween….. to have a look….

we also went to apple picking in this month….. it was so much fun…. and I really enjoyed the fun

Got a 3 wheel scooter  and then changed to a two wheeler…. I am a big boy…

22nd Oct: happy birthday massi…. and i was really surprised and giggled a lot  when i heard this word “masshi”…. that is how I say it…. I didn’t talk to her though….. its really hard to talk to someone after about 6 months and still show the desired affection.

24th Oct: Happy Birthday Chacha ji….. I was saying all day… happy bday chacha ji… but when we called… iwas not interested to talk to him over the phone…. typical me….
