Kiran and Shaan's World

Look who’s sitting up…ALL BY MYSELF! – Kiran  

Here I am playing Speed Patty Cake with Dad. (‘Mom are you keeping score? Because I’ve whooped Dad three times in a row. Whooo-hooo!’) – Kiran  

I don’t watch alot of tv, but from what I can gather, fresh breath and dry armpits are crucial. – Kiran  

Today is Labor Day and it is hot. Worst of all the humidity is making my hair frizzy. (‘Let’s celebrate Labor Day inside the house with some AC, Kool-Aid Mai Tais and Mom’s Rice Crispy crudites.’) – Kiran  

Mom is at a wedding in Las Vegas today so Dad is babysitting me all by himself. We’re having a blast! (Psst, Psst…PSST, PSST…Yes, you. I’m talking to you. Someone needs to call my Mom and tell her to hurry home because Dad is freaking me out.) – Kiran

Here I am hard at work with the staff (Mom and Dad) writing tomorrow’s post for the blog. Believe it or not, writing the captions for the blog is the easy part. At 3 wpm typing is my worst enemy. (“Mom can we please, please, please  hire a part time assistant to handle the secretarial work?”) – Kiran    

Qui coupe la fromage? (That’s ‘Who cut the cheese?’ in French.) Hint: He’s white and furry. – Kiran

Come here, come here…Guess what? Mom says she sees a tooth popping up on the bottom left side of my mouth. I’ve decided to name it ‘Cubby’. – Kiran     

TRANSCRIPT FROM AUGUST 30, 2006

[CLICK] Whoops…Okay let me just attach the camera to the tripod. Ooo-kay. And then let me set the timer on the camera. Ooo-kay. Te he he…even Mom doesn’t know how to do that. All-righty, and now for extreme action shots of Kiran in 3, 2, 1….

[CLICK] WHOA! That was way too close to my face. Hmmmmm … and maybe a twenty second delay instead.

[CLICK] Still so close to my face! What am I doing wrong here?

[CLICK] Ooo-kay you know what? I’m just going to disengage myself from the Jumperoo now because it’s apparent to me that the ‘extreme action photos of Kiran’ thing is so not happening today.  

My horoscope reads as follows: ‘The month of September is all about transformation. Though it may not be easy, embrace this overdue period of change and you will emerge all the stronger for it.’ OHMYGOD! It’s true! I’m teething!
