I love you

It seems like Ariv has realized the concept of what a family is. Sometimes when all of us are together, he gets cozy and starts singing I love you, you love me....we are a happy family song by Barney..... All the words are not very clear, but we just love it when he follows all the actions of the song and gives us a group hug and kiss . I don't know how and when he picked up this song but it is absolutely a adorable moment for me and Manish.

He is still working on the alphabet L and sometimes on R..anything with L/R get replaced by y /r /n /v etc as per his connivence..Here are some of his cute versions of his vocabulary:

I love you - I vove you :)
lalla lalla loree -yayya yayya yoree
light - yight
lets go - yets go
lemme see - menee see
library -yibrady
strawberry - strawbetty
Ms ann marie - ann manie
Ms Laureen - Ms Yaureen

On a brighter note, he is picking up Hindi as well. All credit goes to 2 weeks of India trip where he started to build up on his Hindi speaking skills. And of course at home, we speak in Hindi most of the times. Some of the cute hindi statements that he passes are :
Aapko kya chahiye mumma /daddy , whenever he finds us searching for something.
I reply saying "Ariv mumma ko kiss chahiye"
Ariv : big kiss / small kiss ?
Me : big kiss
Ariv : ok
Then he will come and give me a big smooch on my cheeks and ask : more, yahaa bhi (pointing at other cheek)
I say yes and he replies with ok and gives me another one :) .

Another thing he does is whenever I pretend to cry in front of him, he will come and give me a hug and say...mat ro mumma...kya hua mumma, I vove you mumma...boo boo ??(did u get hurt ?)...
Just to listen to these cute lil words from my cutie pie, I pretend to cry every now and then, in front of him..I know, its wrong, but who cares...anyway, he will figure it out one day ...:)
