Yuvan with his maternal grandparents. Today they were sad that they have to return back to India leaving Yuvan here.யுவனுடைய தாத்தா பாட்டி (பிரியாவின் பெற்றோர்கள்). இரண்டு பேரும் வருத்தத்தோடு (யுவனை பிரிவதால்) இன்று இந்தியாவிற்கு கிளம்பினார்கள்.



Yuvan's first Pongal. He is wearing a new dress bought by Priya. The dress was big for him, so he just wore it for sometime and changed to other dress bought by our landlady. It was yet another day for him, but for two new visitors - Jacob & Karthi. He was very comfortable with Daya (Jacob's wife) and was with her for a very long time.
Today is Yuvan's first Boghi (first day of Pongal festival - if you dont know what is Pongal visit http://members.tripod.com/~jap5/hindufestivals/pongal.html). He was very cool today, got up by 4:30, had milk, burped without issues (well if you had a kid, you know what i am talking about) and spent time with this grandparents. He got lots of dress from prabhu & pradha (my brother and his wife) and he is wearing one of them for boghi.
The blue toy on the left side of the cot is his latest favourite toy. This was also gifted by Vidya & Rajaram. We left him alone in the cot and he was trying to talk to the toy :-). Probably the toy looked like his father :-)
Well now we realized that we didn't take picture of his cot. This is his bed and he likes it a lot. Today he started to notice the toys around him.
Yuvan in his eskimo dress. Vidya & Rajaram gifted this dress and we used it for the first time yesterday to visit his doctor. BTW now his weight is 4.7 kgs and had grown 58.5 cms tall. Looks like he is going to be a tall boy.

These photos were taken today. The first one is when he starts to yawn and the next one is somewhere in the end. We were not fast enough to capture the middle part :-) It is interesting to see his expressions particularly when he tries to do poo-poo :-)
This picture was taken today just before he started crying for food. He started noticing people and laughs when he hears Harish. This photo do show his big forehead - inherited from his mother.
Everyday in the morning we are exposing Yuvan to sunlight for a while. He does enjoy this time. Here mother and the kid taking sunbath on 7th Jan.
Photo taken on yuvan's first-month birthday. We didn't do much on that day.. We planned to put different dresses, but didn't happen as he was not in a good mood. Probably he got upset as he is getting older :-). Somebody told me that B&W pictures shows more expressions, after taking some pictures I realized that it also requires some skills on the photographers side :-)
Day before his one-month birthday. Now a days he laughs a lot when you talk to him and started noticing things around him. Ganesh & Vidya gifted a rattle toy and he likes it very much. Laughs a lot whenever we show that to him.
Yuvan's 4th week completion. Enjoying in his dress. From this week he started to smile if somebody talks to him. Well he even tries to hold his neck without support and succeded many a times ;-)
