Lactose intolerance

We are dealing with the possibility of LI in Ishu.She hasnt had a good un interrupted sleepever since we came back to USA in October.We had put her on a milkbased formula because similac had recalls,but the ingredients were exactly the same.But the doc thinks that the formula could be the culprit and put her on RICE milk.

One week of no dairy in any form.

23 Mar 2011 - 14 yrs completed

Today marks the 14th year in my career. I still remember the day I walked into the Escotel office and meeting the new colleagues. What an experience and what a journey - overall it was AWESOME with ups and downs. We will see whether I will be able to write the same way after another 14 years.....

Parents at PDX

I remember the last time I was here at the same seat in the PDX airport to pick my parents up when they were coming from NJ, 4 years back. I was very upset at that time since we were getting desperate to have babies. Now we are blessed with sweet twins...But other tensions still there one way or other... And thats life I think, atleast it is mine...

Ishus acidity

Ishu for the last couple of days was not letting me have a good nights sleepas she used to wake up crying every now and then. So I was going to office very tired and coffee was the only th ing keeping me awake. One night I was so pissed off at her but was really sorry for her the next day. We called the doctor and they asked us to cut down on dairy and wheat. We think it could be the whole weat pasta which is causing this, maybe along with the mozarella cheese.

K's Performance review

I had already warned one of my employee K that his semester review wont be that great, if he wont focus on evrything. So finally today I sat down with him to share the results. I gave him a shock of his life by mentioining that he is not going to get neither a bonus nor a hike. I explained the reasons and he agreed. I saw a totally different K who was accepting his mistakes without going into the defensive mode. So I finished the review and said goodbye to him. He stepped out of my office and within a few minutes I called him back and shared his monetary details. He was really happy to see that and was overwhelmed....Hope he got the message clear...While leaving my office he assured me that he will be back on track....

Books & Bloks

The twins never had a favorite toy.But now adays a few things seems to grab their attention more.

1.Books

Books,the big picture board books are a big hit in our house.Ishu was always interested in books.She hates the small board books,period.Devu didnt care for books at all;neither big nor the small ones.She used books mainly to throw,bend or stand on to reach stuff.She started to notice books about a month ago and seems fascinated by them.Two of the fav seems to be the My first word and number book.

2.Bloks..

Devu loves them.It is the only thing that grabs her concentration and interest for long time.

2.Aquadoodle

The one where you can paint with water..Ishu loves it..She says that she drawing poova(flower) and bathataa(butterfly).I love love love the aquadoodle.Its awesome for a lousy sketcher.Somehow my doodles comes out good too.

Seems like I have a few things in order with which i can bribe them,HA!!!!!
