Eating, skype , playing sleeping! :)

Now that I overcame my sadness which caused due to Avyaya's refusal to take my feed, I am so relieved to see him hugging me and sleeping.  The connection which I missed for couple of days has been restored , successfully !! ( missing connection! My assumption only!!) .  I did face a bit of problem for couple of days as Avyaya takes so much time to sleep. He wants his toy car, his ball and
his teddy bear with him. Though these things easily gets unnoticed and forgotten if not kept in the room. Out of sight out of mind !!!!
He is also learning to eat on his own, with spoon, by hand and with fork. His coordination is picking
up. Yesterday we ordered chicken ceaser salad which had lettuce leaves in it. I was astonished to see him poking the fork in the salad and picking it up still stuck in the fork and putting it in his mouth. Really!!!!!
If I say "I" he will complete it by saying "lub you". Lovely...isn't it?? He will get the iPad ,open the skype and say "nannni". Means, please call my nani (grandmother)I want to talk to her. We chat only on Saturdays and Sundays so at times it gets hard to make him understand that nani will come on
Saturday dear she is busy.
If he sees even the smallest of car picture. He will jump excitedly and say" peepee, peepee" even when we read newspaper he will search for the photo of a car and gets so happy if he sees one.
In the morning if he gets up before me , he will kiss me and hug me ... :) I wake up  overwhelmed with happiness.  After few months he will start going to play school and he will make new friends
there, I am so eager for that.

Self-weaning ??!!!

Well !! Today is 7 th February and being a Friday it was a weekly off here in muscat , Oman . So my husband , Avyaya and myself went to the beach which is just 5 minutes walk from our place.




Avyaya always likes playing in sand and water. Initially he was too scared to even go near the waves but now he will drag me into the water as well.... :o . 
We went out shopping in the afternoon and then had a nap later. Ordered Chinese for dinner and which even Avyaya liked. 
My major concern came later at night when I realized that Avyaya is not feeding on my milk . He did that last night also and in the afternoon too. He had the habit of sleeping while feeding my milk. Which he didn't since yesterday night. OH MY GOD!!!!! I asked my husband to bring a warm milk in avyaya's feeding bottle. Thankfully he had some milk and after a  bit of  crying he went off to sleep. Then I sat and searched the net. " toddler stopped breast feeding suddenly ". I got various answers.like, he might be suffering from illness, teething or have I reprimanded recently. Did I???
Or it could be self weaning thing. Meaning he won't be taking my milk .. Which is good in a way but I did feel a bit of connection lost. I missed his hug while feeding. Missed big time. But I think it's good for him. It was my concern as how will I make him stop taking my milk. I was worried. Hah!! And now that he is not taking I m still worried. Never satisfied!! Goodness!!. I am going to wait for couple of days more. Let's see.

This is also the sign that he is growing up. I am happy for that. God bless him. :)
