We are done 2 months

Nowadays life is more settled. Tumpi is handling everything, its been a while that I have even changed Reimaan's diapers. And without really feeling my li'l one has completed 2 months with us. For me fatherhood feeling or what I don't know, but he is a huge stress-buster for me. Over the last month, he has started giving social smiles from the monalisa-smile of first month, but those are most unpredictable. He responds to sounds like rattles, claps,etc and also makes sometimes in response. Morning is his most playful period, but I prefer to be sleeping that time. Don't think I can continue doing this for long. The best thing for me is the first sight after I wake up, see him stretching and kicking in air, gives a kick-ass start to my day. And the 2nd best thing is when I go to bed in the night and he is sleeping, I never seen PEACE better. Love this !!

Another interesting is his (or for that matter any kid's) development. Since we are seeing him grow, every new change is amazing and noticible. He tries to turn already and cries for cuddling when he sees his mom. He needs attention, someone needs to talk/sing to him, else he starts crying. Signs of growth but symptoms of hectic life ahead!

Over the last month, he got his standard 4 immunization shots to which he responded pretty well. He had only mild fever. The doctor and the nurse pushed 2 shots in each thigh, and his reaction was so less, that we thought he was confused which one pained more! But things would be different as he realises what-might-cause-pain.

We did celebrate his 2 months with some cakes (dada got one and me also) which basically was for us.

Life has changed now, it didn't when I got married, thanks to Tumpi. But surely it did now. Every one's whole and sole focus is Reimaan. It might take somewhere between 2-3 more yrs for us to go to a restaurant or a movie without hampering his schedule. Not that I am missing those, but it's just an indication.

Lastly, seeing Tumpi doing all the chores, I understood a difference between a girl, women/wife and a mother better. If a girl has X amount of patience, the same person when turns into a women/wife that X becomes 2X or say even 10X, but when she becomes mother it explodes to INFINITE times. Fathers like me, we are mostly moody and need to control our emotions seeing the li'l one cry, most times for something and sometimes for just nothing. Lot to learn and lot to control. The young blood is causing problem !!
