Happy Halloween!

Roshan partied it up on his first Halloween. We first hit the Google party where he was able to show off his sweet pumpkin costume. He ripped it off with 30 minutes, but at least we got some pictures of him. We tried again at the Xcenda party...but he wasn't having it. Oh well, at least I scored some good candy. Thanks Roshan.

Milestones:

• Roshan learned to pull himself up and stand on furniture. It took a few falls before he learned that it is far better to fall on your butt than your head. He now fears nothing!
  
• First major blow up in public. Monica was in line at the post office when Roshan started to play with some keys from the person behind them. When Monica had to give the keys back, Roshan threw a massive fit as she left the post office and cried for a full city block. Mon had three separate people come to her and make comments about the crying baby. She finally gave in and gave him her keys...and instantly he was fine. It was the first of many times Roshan will be manipulating us.
  
• First taste of wine. We went wine tasting in Sonoma for Sandy's birthday party. Roshan enjoyed some wine and cheese during the event. He loved it. Must be Rupa's influence.
  
• Favorite food: yogurt. Mix in anything in there and he will eat it.
  
• Favorite song: A-B-C-D. It somehow always calms him down.
  
• Favorite toy: spoons and measuring cups. Good thing we bought all of these advanced toys for him.

Roshan Crawls!

Yes, it took a few bumps, bruises, and falls for success...but Roshan is now mobile. It took him about 35 seconds for him to jump to the wires behind the cable modem. Time for some baby proofing...

Here are some videos that capture his first crawl in real time. Please excuse the crazy parents.
