We went to a picnic arranged by the Sunday school and they played hindi hits and Sheila ki jawani was one of them. One big kid had told AJ that ' ' is a bad word. Thank God he didn't explain it any further :) I didnt know this and when i got in the car, the song was still playing in my head and i started singing it and when i started singing i am too..he screamed "STOP" that's a bad word. i was shocked and i asked him how he knew that and Ashu said some big kid told him. From that time, anytime he heard that song..he would go "OOOOHHHH Bad word"and cover his ears..Good thing he doesnt know the meaning. LOL. My friend thought it was too cute and everytime she sees AJ she will start My name is sheila and he would cover his ears and run away from her. She did that several times and i kept telling her that one day he's gonna call her Sheila Aunty. This happened long back..Last week, we were playing "find the song" game..where i hum a tamil song and they find it. I hummed "My name is billa"...Ashu sang the song properly and AJ sang "My name is Sheila..." in the tune of My name is Billa...ROFL!!

But Amma did it!!
I took the kids to the mall after having lunch with B for father's day. B couldn't come with us as he had some meeting regarding the new tamil school that is being started in our area. To start with, kids weren't too happy to goto the mall ..They've taken after their dad and hate shopping!! but, the purpose of the trip to the mall was to get them sandals. Right next to the shoe store was the Candy Craze!! All kinds of candies..Imagine AJ's eyes when he saw that!!
AJ: - "Mom, i am so hungry..since you didnt cook lunch can we have something to eat?"
Me and Ashu : " AJ you just had lunch at TOI"
AJ (with an ooops expression) : "Maybe you didnt give me breakfast and that's why i am hungry"
Me : AJ i gave you tamarind poha and Pasta and you raved about it
AJ : "Hmm..i am hungry, just get me something..maybe from that candy craze?"
LOL!! He tries..
So finally i got them a brownie from the coffee shop that was outside. He was kinda okay, still little unhappy that i didnt buy candies :) Had i taken him to the candy store that would've been like "Vengala kadaila yaanai". After coming home i told this to B and asked him to pretend he was upset that AJ had junk food..So, B asks with a fake shock in his voice "You ate junk food?" and without missing a beat AJ says "But, amma got it for us". Epic jawdrop for me!! :P

Swimming, Camps..Summer
Kids are in different camps and have started their swimming as well. Less than 2 weeks to go for the india trip. So much to wrap up....
Kids are pretty excited about the trip. I will be working from there..first time, have to see how it goes. Mom's not doing well and i dont think she can travel anymore, so i am glad i get to go again this year....
The previous trip wasn't a fun one with Ashu falling sick the first week and mom the last week. I met more doctors and nurses than relatives/ friends i think!
My brother asked AJ if he wants to goto swimming pool at his apartment and AJ says, "Ofcourse, i know swimming now" This he said after taking just 1 class, where he was just floating with a noodle. Didnt even kick!!
Ashwin's not too happy about not being able to swim (after 2nd class!) I guess he expected to beat Phelps after 2 classes! Both their comments only remind me of the proverb that my dad used often about me and my brother :) "Rendum rendu aapai, rendum kazhanda aapai" LOL!
The first week of their holidays, they were at home with me and B working from home alternately and taking day offs. The next week they were in science center and loved their camp. It was robotics camp and AJ's first camp outside his preschool. He even got to make a mini robot and Ashu built a moving mouse and did few more projects.
Second week, ashu had a camp at his school which he loved and AJ went to his friend's sister's camp. He loved it too. Along with Akshi, he had Arthi and Nandu who he likes like his big sisters :)
Third week at Y and Ashu went for one day and AJ was sick from day 1 and hasn't been there yet! He seems to be better today and may go tomorrow. I think we owe Y some money from the previous jenmam :) This happens all the time..we pay and they dont go due to various reasons :D
Not just that..our membership money that we pay every month thinking that we will be come very responsible and goto the gym regularly... but overall mind says go, body says no!! :P We have gotten slightly better now and have started going...will get there..
Next week they will be back at the science center and this time Aj's friend kutty ashu will be there as well :)
