12-Jul-2011 : ImportantKostins!

 

Ashu asked me why we chose to be vegetarians and kind of freaked me out. I asked why..did you eat by mistake? He said : No all my friends asked me and they said chicken is so yummy and asked we dont eat it. Phew! I explained to him and then asked if he feels he is missing something and thankfully he said he is fine about not eating meat :D Kids!!

 

I remember AJ told me he had pepparoni pizza and i got so mad at the teacher because she knows he is vegetarian. When i asked her she said the parents dont order anything other than cheese pizza :) He must've heard it form some other kid!

14-Jul-2011 : Super Happy :)

 

Ashu's TCAP results are out. He's got excellent marks in all the subjects. Mighty proud of him :) His level is Advanced :) Took him to watch HP Deathly hallows Part 2. We both enjoyed the movie thoroughly while dad and aj were having "quality" time at home.

16-Jul-2011 : I had promised Ashu that i will take him and two of his friends to watch Harry Potter Deathly Hollows  Part 2 as advanced birthday gift. He was super happy. But, the other two boys had different plans and it didnt work out. So, i told him we both can watch it on Friday as soon as it opens. But, we had major prod issue today that i had to work. When i asked him if it's okay if we watch it on sat or sun, he said "I am fine even if i have to wait till the DVD is out.. I don't care when i watch it as long as i get to watch it. What a sweet boy!  :)

 

Chicago

=======

 

I was on vacation last week and B took 2 days off and we went on a sudden trip to chicago. He woke me at 1 in the night and said let's leave tomorrow!! Ofcourse it didnt sink in for me and i woke up at 9 and got everything ready and we only managed to leave at 1.45 and with few breaks we reached the hotel at 12.30 in the night! Next day, we went to Sear (Willis) tower and Navy pier. They really loved it. We also took water taxi and it was a nice trip as we got to see all the wonderful buildings. Kids enjoyed it. But, When we got off, aj fell down and scraped his knees. And the next day he fell down again and got more scrapes. The whole trip he kept falling or bumping somewhere! :-O The next day we went to Shedd aquarium, and after reaching shedd the boys changed their mind and we went to Field museum. Ashu was the only one who enjoyed it. AJ liked part of it and was really bored and cranky at times. Asking me to carry him whenever he was bored :-O After that we went to our friends' place. We met them after 4 years and had a blast. The kids got all very well and we had a good long chat. They have two daughers close to ashu and aj's age, but i was wondering if they will get along as i have never seen ashu play with girls recently. but, their older daughter was into Harry Potter and that was good enough. They got along very well and so did the little ones. Now aj keeps asking when is ruhi (little one)'s family coming to our place. Day 3, we went to Sri Balaji temple and left. Aj wasn't happy to leave chicago as we didnt get time to visit amazing fun house maze or something of that sort that he wanted to go!!
