To Tirurangadi & Passport Photo

Hallo again.. I am back after one full week I stayed in my grandparents' house (Uppa's parents) in Tirurangadi. There are a lot of cpusins there... some of them are babies like me... so I had a lot of friends to played with. It was very hot early last week... I almost never wore shirt all day, even when I sleep at night, we had to turn on the fan al the time. But last 2 days was rainy days. The weather became cold suddenly... :) Maybe the rainy season will come soon...

Yesterday we were busy to apply a passport for me. Wait.... we're not yet planning to go to Jakarta to visit my granparents and Mama's family. Not in this time... But one day we will Insha Allah... :) We're just preparing, that's all. If anytime we need to go, I already have a passport.

Here's my passpot photo ^_^ It is not a perfect photo, but it is OK for a 6 months baby, isn't it... hehehe. Uppa took it while mama tried to hold me not to make too much movements. We need some shots before we got this one.. because it is very difficult to make me quite even one minute.

6 Months Old

Start to stand..

My week end

Hello to you all ^_^ I'm back now after a long rest because of Hyderabad Trip.. hehehe. I think I really enjoy last trip very much, especially cause Uppa and Mama always carry me in their hands for the whole 8 days. I am addicted to it :( Even now in home I always want them to carry me all the time. I will cry so loud until they pick me up. Sometimes I made Mama very confused :(

Now I can crawling fast to where ever I want to go in my house. In the morning if I wake up from sleep in good mood, I will call Mama and I will follow her to kitchen. But if I'm in bad mood, I will call her by crying loudly.

Uppa and Mama have to be really carefull now since I can crawl fast. Because start to go and touch something dangerous for me. I will go under the chair while they sit on it, or under the computer table and touch the wires. Sometimes Mama found me already in kitchen while she's outside...

We were very busy last week end... ^_^ Saturday morning like usual, I will play for sometimes and take a nap. Around 1 PM we going out to town. We need to buy a new feeding bottle for me because we left the old one somewhere. Then we had lunch in one restourant. On the way home Uppa had to stop to repair his watch. We reach back home around 4 PM.

Then the next program was going to Cherai beach with Maya Auntie (Uppa's colleague) and her family. We start around 4.30 PM. The beach was very nice... and we reach there right before the sun set.

This time Mama let me go down so my feet can touch the sand. And when the waves came I can feel it too. It's really fun... We play for some times in the water. When my dress getting wet, we stop. After the sun set, we go back to home and reach around 9 PM in rainy night.

We had a guest on Sunday. Uppa invited his friend and his family for lunch. Since morning they are busy preparing food. When Uppa went for shopping, I played with Mama, and when Mama busy in the kitchen (she made fish biriyani) it's Uppa turn to play with me.

In the evening after our guest left, we went to visit Uppa's sister and family who were just moved near by Cochin. We met Upuppa also there.

By the way, another news... now I start to try to stand by myself. Mama worry that I'm not strong enough to do that, because I am just turning 6 months old this May 19. If she sees me trying to stand, she will put me back to sitting position or help me to stand by puting my weight in her hands. But she can't watch me all the time.... sometimes she found me already standing...

Misc From Hyderabad

In Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad.

Nehru Zoological Park

Last week when we went to Hyderabad, we visit Nehru Zoological Park. We start after breakfast t 8.30 AM. Then we catch an autorickshaw to go there.

After bought the tickets, we enter the zoo. The first attraction is fish aquariums. I saw many fish kept in different aquariums according to their species. Then we move to see tortoise. There are 2 big giant tortoises there. Really big.... a lot bigger than myself ^_^ The opposite of Tortoise is peacock. When we were there, it spread it's tail very beautifully. And it looks veryf riendly to human. Whn Mama offer her hand, the peacock approach her. Then I saw a male white tiger. He is very big and beautiful. But looked very hungry that time. He was walking inside the pool round and round, trying to find something to eat. If he see something in water he will smell it and taste it.

Other than those I mentioned above, I saw a lot of animals. Many different kind species of monkeys (Mama said she met her Indonesian brother, Orangutan.. hehehe). Many kinds of birds with their beautiful and colourful feathers. There were Rhinoceros, Hippopotamus, lions, tigers, jaguars, deer, elephants, etc. But I didn't see snakes... Hey, there's Jurassic Park also. Well, of course they are all only statues. But they are in their real size.

We went to a Safari Tour also. Mama said it's just like Taman Safari in Indonesia, but here they just show a wild animal like lions, tigers, and bears. The lion was sleeping when we saw. We tried to get his attention, but he looked very lazy to get up. Then when we reach to bear's place... one black bear approach our van. He choose an open window and stand in front of it. Maybe he was expecting someone will give him some food. The van stop for some times to let the children in the van look and took some pictures.

Before we leave the zoo, we took some rest and sit on the grass. The zoo has so many park with big trees. Sometimes with pool and fountain also. They all clean and green. Mama put a sheet on the grass to let me lay for some time. I was very tired... But I'm happy.

Here's some photos of the animals we took from the zoo.
