Taking mama for a ride

Been to Chikmagalur a month back and stayed at a home stay there. Their kids had a couple of tricycles to which Ria took a liking. Every time we passed them, she wanted to warm the cycle seats a bit ! Though the caption is every bit a pun, won't be surprised if it becomes reality soon :-)
[P.S - Yes..you guessed it right..our Birthday gift to her was a tricycle. A post on the red hot item will follow soon]

Two and going strong

Ria turned two today. The last one year saw her graduate from taking a few steps to walking confidently, climbing stairs and slowly developing a personality. It was more of mental development over the last year and she now has a vocabulary of atleast two dozen words. She is able to understand most of what we tell her and is able to communicate according to the context too in words (some which we understand and some which we don't).As she is able to interact more it is much more enjoyable to engage in child talk with her. She enjoyed getting gifts and opening them. The higlight was the blowing of the candle and cutting the Bday cake (that is shown above).
