Mishi is a happy baby

Looks

Dear Mishika,

At this stage you are really testing your mother's patience.  You have become two faced.  Innocent and paavam at one time, protest and incessant crying at other. 

Mishika the Menace

Mishika,

Your mom has officially declared you as naught kid. This 4 second video attests that naughtyness.

Dearest Mishika,

This is my favourite picture of yours. 
You are staring right into the camera.
Just born two days ago.  You gaze is fixed.  You seem so sure at what are you looking at.

mishi's first solid food

Dearest mishi, today you have achieved an important milestone! You had your first bite, rather lick, of solid food! After much deliberation we decided to start you on the sattanathan family's favorite fruit, banana! As expected of a true blue sattanathan family descendent, you enjoyed every bit of it. For days we have seen you observing us adults relishing sweets and savories -ukkarai, cheedai, payasam, tengozhal, with keen interest.. Your time will come soon! Your appas yearning for the day when he can take you out to baskin robbins for your first ice cream. He's hoping that you would be at least a wee bit of the gourmet that he is. I on the other hand, am just praying that you don't trouble me with your greens and veggies! Can't wait for you to grow up!,
Love, amma
