As Sachi is on the road to discovering new words, she has come up with a special lexicon--that only those with the trained ear can decipher. Here are a few words and their definitions...so you too can speak Sachi's language.
Ta-pope: Cantaloupe
Ta-toon: Popcorn
Tu-pid: Toothpaste
O-gurk: Yogurt
Da-ya: Daddy
Wah: Water
Ah-jeem: Icecream
I am going to be sad when she learns how to say all these words correctly. Her language is so much fun!
Sachi likes to play a lot of "pretend" lately. Unfortunately this also includes trips to the potty. Just like her daddy, she sits there for a long time and thumbs a magazine. Man, I don't know who invented this whole reading on the pot thing, but I say just get in there, do your business, and get out!
She has yet to leave anything worth mentioning in her potty.
Lately Sachi has been quite the performer.
You gotta turn your head sideways to watch this cuteness!
They say Disneyland is the happiest place on earth, but I didn't get it until I went there with Sachi on my birthday. From the first ride (the merry go round), Sachi was in heaven. When the ride ended and I had to dismount her from the horse, she was screaming. I said to her, "Don't worry Sachi, we are going on so many more rides". After the first ride, we hit rides like Mr. Toad's Wild Ride, Pinnochio, Alice's Teacups, It's a smallworld, and the ride through Storybookland. We mostly only stayed in Fantasyland, but man...it was fun. I want to go there for Anil's bday now.
This is a picture of Sachi while she was enjoying one week of an Indian Summer up here. I wish she looked like this now. Sadly, she is sick with a steady stream of yellow mucous running out of her nose.
She started daycare just three weeks ago, and in that time, she has contracted two different colds, and done a whole lot of crying. (This does not help the mucous situation) I kept her out of daycare today so she can rest. In fact, we are all sick. But, at least it is not the swine flu.
I am hoping she enjoys the interaction with the 5 other kids in daycare, but right now, all of it just feels pretty crappy. The worst is we live next door to the daycare, and I can hear her crying sometimes. I may as well just rip my heart out.
A few weeks ago, Anil and I made a trip to Claire's Accessories in Emeryville with the mission to pierce Sachi's ears. Prior to the event, we went out to lunch, and filled Sachi's little belly with icecream in apology for the pain that was to come. We went to Claire's, picked out her studs, and I personally was shocked that either myself or Anil had to hold her steady while this piercing was to occur. I shuddered at the thought of doing it, and it was obvious that Anil would have that job of holding her down.
Following
this harrowing event, Sachi was in so much pain it appeared she was going to vomit. I held her in my arms, and tried to assure her it was going to be okay. They gave her a lollipop as sugar therapy, and it seemed to work a little bit.
But look at her now...she is a beauty. If you zoom in..you should be able to see a speck of amethyst on her ear. This is the best I could do without holding her head down again.

Yeah, Seema Auntie is married...we just came back from Houston, and had a great time hanging with all the relatives.
Sachi is here with her auntie Seema, the day after the wedding. I don't know what was up lately, but Sachi has been eating non-stop. Seema got to witness this firsthand. Sachi just ate half of an avocado and was forcing spoons of yogurt into her mouth after that.Seema was also trying to feed her nephew Krish some of this yogurt, but Sachi put up a fuss. Each spoon had to be directed into her mouth, and into her ever expanding belly.
Sachi, keep it up while it's cute and your metabolism is raging. Do you eat for hunger, comfort, or just plain oral satisfaction? All I know is if you keep up at this pace, your momma is not going to be able to carry you anymore.
