Applying for a Passport? Bite me!

Today we applied for Ishi's passport. The long story Ishi's first government office visit is here.

Ishi spent breakfast with her Dida, fascinated by her green pendant; then spent time with Maashi and Leela didi, before Maashi drove them both to join us at the passport office queue. We tried to time it such that she would not have to spend too much time in the queue outside and we were in, in about ten minutes or so.

Throughout, Ishi was mostly in her pram, first playing with her pram fan (she would put her hand to the blades! And no matter that the blades were kid friendly, it did not seem to be setting a good precedent!). There she amused herself with her pram toys and kicking about in her sandals. Towards the end of our wait, she got tired and went off to sleep in Daddy's arms. We laid her in her pram and asked Leela to take her away from the main crowd and towards the waiting area. Once all done, we were back home by noon after a short stop to say bye to Tuki Maashi and pick up our stuff from there.

Once home, we got organized and I started feeding her her lunch while Leela finished cooking. I realized I could feel a definite scrape on the spoon and with my finger, could feel her lower incisors! She was a bit cranky, so have not pressed her to show me her mouth yet...but I do believe someone's pearly whites are finally breaking ground! Her Dida also called me later and told me she though her left upper incisor was coming out.

Its 3:25pm now, and Ishi is sleeping. I hope she wakes in a good mood, so we can get ... well... a clearer picture! Waiting with a smile ... :)
