Today, Adit is 15 months old. Here is his monthly progress report. Although I have missed several months in between, I still call this a monthly report.

Oscar the grouch from Sesame Street is Adit’s most favorite character. He behaves like Oscar too, as seen here with our trashcan. We thought that he likes our trashcan because it is made of shiny stainless steel. But, his teacher commented the other day that Adit is after trashcans at daycare … read more

Yesterday, it warmed up to a toasty 20+ F and the Sun was out. Perfect time to go out and enjoy some winter activities. Adit and … read more

Saturday was a perfect fall day for an outing: 60 degrees and sun shining in the cloudless deep blue sky. We decided to go for our annual apple picking. It was the first one for Adit. The orchard that we always go to had apples, pears and lots of raspberries for picking. Ashwini almost filled her … read more

Adit’s teachers call him, the “Pacifier Bandit”. He doesn’t use a pacifier, but goes around and pulls them out of the mouths of other babies in his classroom. Yesterday, he tried to sit on a 3-month old baby. His teacher picked him up and put him away, but he crawled back to … read more

The little monster is on the prowl. Adit has figured out how to roll, crawl, sit up and lie down all by himself. Last night he was so happy when he could go anywhere he wanted to pick up anything he wanted to put in his mouth. I can’t imagine how much more work this is going to be for us to … read more

Adit, just a few seconds before he pulled out some grass and put in his mouth. All through this month, Adit was troubled by a bad cold, but he kept fighting it and was as smiley as always. He started eating a lot of new solid foods. To rice cereal, carrots and sweet potatoes, we added squash, green … read more
