A container for all my views with excerpts from technology, travel, films, books, kannada, friends and other interests. I am Thejesh GN, friends call me Thej.
I became an Appa (dad) in 2023 with the arrival of Uma. Before that, I was just a dog dad. Uma changed my life in many ways. I am enjoying my parenthood a lot. And I like to write about the ups and downs of being a father here.

.Today was my first encounter with moral police, though I wasn’t his target—a teenage1 couple in the park2 was. As I entered, I noticed a young couple hugging, maybe even kissing, but I couldn’t see clearly as I was not paying much attention. Then I saw a man with a toddler approached them....

It’s been a year, and time flies. It is so much fun to see Uma growing up. I am enjoying parenting a lot, more than I thought I would. I have not written much about it. I will write at some point before she grows up :)
Uma’s sleeping cycle has changed a bit. She now sleeps from 7 PM to 6:30 AM, with a short nap in the morning and a longer nap after lunch. Her diet includes most of what we eat, but less spicy. She doesn’t like eggs as of now :(, which are important in our diet, so we keep trying different ways to introduce them.
We introduced Uma to Pathu and Echo on day one, and she has grown up with them since then. Echo and Pathu have been friendly to people and toddlers even before Uma. So it wasn’t difficult to introduce Uma to them, even though she was the youngest baby they had met. It’s also the first time they are living with a human baby. Their relationship is that of siblings.
