Of Livers, Needles and Dilemmas!!!

A Long time back, before I had the twins, there was a time I was shuttling between the doctor’s clinics and pathology labs. For some unknown reason, I had difficulty retaining my pregnancies. Miscarriage after miscarriage had made me immune to pain. I was advised to get various different blood tests done. I’m surprised at [...]

Twin Speak

Its been some time since I posted something on the twins. These past few months, since they completed 3 years of age, the two of them have us either gaping in horror or gasping in delight at their talk. Though not all of it makes sense, but when it does, it hits the roof. Literally!! [...]

Twin Updates – By Lui & Shobby

Hello uncles and aunties ( or Bhaiyyas and didis for the overly sensitive!) This is Shobby, of the “Lui & Shobbs”  fame (kind of rhymes with ‘Calvin & Hobbs’, no?) . I was , of course, compelled to take authority of the blog since the mother dear totally lost it. The track I mean, of [...]

Taking A Moment To Preen

Last week, I didn’t let the twins go to school. They were down with viral infection and I didn’t want them spreading the germs to other children. Also, Shobs had developed a high fever and was very lethargic. So after two days of the kid’s absence, one day, their class teacher calls me up. In [...]

In Sickness and in Health

Apologies for going all technical there, but what can I say when [...]

I mean, I know of parents at work who take their kids out for photo-shoots, you know, the complete works with a professional photographer, umbrellas and lighting. The kids [...]

“Colour Me Orange”

I have twins who don’t really understand that not all kids have siblings and that too, of the same age. So they are surprised if they cant see a baby boy along with a baby girl when we visit friends. The two are so used to each other, that even though I try and prevent [...]

Wordless Wednesday (I Kid, Of Course :) )

PS : Its getting  difficult to say they are twins! Lui is shooting up and my son seems in no hurry to catch up with her PPS : Note the nail-polish on Shobby’s fingers. Right after the nanny applied it, he chided her, “Mai girl hai kya?” Wonder why didn’t think of it when she [...]

From the Mouth Of Babes

Since the twins were born, I used to fret about when I’ll get to hear them talk. To hear them sing rhymes or songs. Or just to scream and yell. As babies, they were both docile, letting out a  plaintive cry only when hungry (in the case of Lui) or sleepy, before-bath, after-bath, before-pee, after-pee, [...]
