Below the dining table is one of my favorite spots. I notice little bits of anything on teh floor and usually crawl and head right to it and if you are not fast enough get it into my mouth. Yesterday while Aariv was eating his cube of cheese mom wasnt fast enough and found the wrapper in my mouth.
People were thinking this may never happen but I am surprising everyone by reaching out for anything that you show me from a distance that looks attractive. Also, yesterday was my first time crawling, just in time for my first Raksha Bandhan. Now with one brother and two cousins that I will be tying rakhi to, I had to grow up a little bit.

My first trip to India
I took the longest flight of my life - 15 hours to fly to India with Aariv and mommy. It wasnt bad at all. Since I had the bassinet I was comfortable in my own space and Aariv had hos own seat. After I slept a few hours mommy put me and Aariv down in front of her seat on a beach mat with some toys. It was fun to sit up and play. The rest of the time, I ate and lay down and played with my toys in my bassinet. It was a fun flight.
Now in India I am really pampered. I have this aunty come over and take care of me all day and another aunty come over to play with me and Aariv in the evenings. I have also been more vocal, yelling out loud if you ignore me, leave or if I am in a good mood I clap my hands along. Yesterday I gave dadi a bad look when she tried to take aariv in her arms leaving me behind. Just a few days back I started sitting up from a lying down position and if a toy is beyond reach I will lie doen to reach it and sit back up. I get very proud and beam a huge smile each time I sit up. Now I wake up at about 6 am, sit up in the bed and try to call out and get Aariv's attention if he is asleep or play with him if he is up.
My dadi dada took me to a family get together where I met about 50 new people and everyone was in awe of me. I went to everyones arms and played with their glasses, necklaces or beards while Aariv slept. I was barely with my mommy that evening.
I am almost 10 months old and I will be making my first trip to my cousins in Ahmedabad and Rajkot. It will be my longest train ride, more firsts!
