The growing one!

Samyak is at his peak of physical activity after I reach home. I can make this comment safely because that is the only time I get to see him active. Yes, his mother is lucky to see him conduct all types of possible pranks throughout the day. I can understand the pains in ensuring safety of him amidst the various objects at home. Unfortunate for me, I miss these activities. I can't help it. I understand that I am unlucky in this regard. 
While I appreciate his pranks because I get to see those only for a very small duration I can feel the anger, the angst and the torture that my wife and his mother would be going through every passing hour of the day. I know this is a temporal phase as time is the greatest villian and it shall make him senior and force him to do away with his innocence and innocent pranks. The irresistible face shake or the random dancing or the toothless grin; yes I shall be missing them soon or should I say we shall be missing that soon!

Holding hostage

Today Samyak managed to hold his mother hostage in the attached bathroom of her bedroom. Sambhab was not at home (playing downstairs) and I was also outside. She had no other option but break the latch to the bedroom and make herself free.

From the Mahanagar...

Yes, Samyak has found his own space in Mumbai. There has not been much change in him physically since the last days of Kolkata.

Now most people atleast in the B Wing of my Apartments know that there is a small & loud cry baby who is adorable at times.

Today, he was centre of attraction in the entire school of Sambhab.

Detective-ness

Had heard from his mother that he has started to detect objects and find them if placed close to the area in which it is normally kept. I tried this with my home-spectacles and behold he showed me the same.

The first studious recognition...

Yesterday, wife informed me that she tried teaching Samyak to recognize few things. I was surprised to see it myself that he was able to distinguish a pen from a pencil.

Unbelievable physical progress

The progress on the physical part had been fast but now its too fast. He has started to stand erect. He pulls up few steps if pulled along by the hand.
The blabbering is on though not a single distinct word has come out yet.

Fatal fall...

Samyak had a fatal fall in the market place today while being carried his mom. She had been to the market to fetch a pair of canvas for Sambhab.
As I saw him today after reaching home from office, I found him to be dull and there were clearly red marks on his forehead.
I pray  to a Almighty for mak8ng him all right once again!

Standing...

He is putting his efforts to stand. Surprisingly he did not venture into full-time crawling.

Winking...

There is an element of winking which has come to play while smiling. The petite and innocent face that he bears (atleast when he is in good spirits) is simply a marvel.
At times, he also gives in to my demands to wink and smile by order. Oh, what sheer joy and bliss!

Freelance blabbering...

I am told by Sambhab that he often uses the word Baba, mama...

As per him these words are legibly clear in Samyak's pronunciation though I do not have any circumstantial evidence to prove the same.
