New Car Seats!

This past weekend we stopped by and picked up a new car seat for Sean since Rhea was starting daycare this week and we were i car seat short. Rhea was so excited about cheta's new car seat. Aji had it in the family room before installing it and she was busy trying to climb on it. She was so happy when i sat her on it.



It was her favorite toy for the night!

Rhea is 11 months!

Our lil girl is so close to turning 1. Its amazing how fast the past 11 months have flown by..its been such a wonderful experience...

Rhea is such a cutie pie....she has so much energy and is always so cheerful...she always has a smile for us. She loves to walk...she will go around the ottoman holding it for support. She also loves it when we hold her hand and walk her around. She seems to want to talk a lot and communicate. She already has a few words to her growing vocabulary. he r first word was Tata. Whenever she hears the garage door open..she thinks someone is heading out so she'll wave her hands and gently say Ta-ta, ta-ta...I wish I could record it and play it here...the other words are Dada and mama...and also a host of babble...like mum..mumm..mimm..huh..huh..ha...ah etc. Music continues to be a first love. She goes ballistic when sean does the prayer before meals which is a song. She starts clapping hands and grins from ear to ear 

Aji taught her to say hi too but she says it so gently its almost a whisper :) The funniest though is when you ask her a question...doesn’t matter what question - she will nod her head up and down as if to say 'Yes'. I think she understands a question from our tone and immediately she will start nodding...its hilarious. She has also learnt to give us a kiss - a wet one at that! She will come close to your cheeks and then stick out her tongue and do a small lick :) the best part is that she will be at your cheeks for some time..its like she doesn’t know when to end the kiss:) She is so silly :)

Happy 11 month birthday to you my dear vave!!

Family Portrait time!

Dressed in Overalls!

Brr...its cold!

The weather the past few days can be aptly termed 'Biting Cold'. The highs have been well close to 32-33 degrees farenheit which is 0 degrees celsius and the lows have been as cold as sub zero farenheit.

Old man winter definitely knows to get his message across. He must be smiling away and blowing all those heavy winds our way as we sit and freeze. he seems to be asking 'So who's the BOSS?' and we mortals can only shiver say back 'YOU ARE!!'.

Now if only spring could make a big dash and save us from this misery.....

Mom, you're the best!

yes...those words are from Sean...needless to say i was flying high for next few hours..

Let me give you the full story...Daddy and Mummy spent the weekend at Anishchayan's house. So it was just the 4 of us this weekend. Needless to say we were busy bees. We had some errands to runa dn since it was biting cold we decided to take turns. So saturday morning after i fed the kids, i managed to bake cranberry bread before i stepped out of the house. My mission of the day (as sean always says) was to get Rhea a winter jacket and some clothes in prep for her day care debut on the 15th. I had been out for about an hour when aji called me and passed the phone to Sean and he said - Mom, You're the best!!!

I was almost in tears..aji explained that they had been down in the basement playing and when they came up they were all hungry and they delved into the bread. Sean loved it so much he immediately proclaimed -


Mamma, is the best because she makes all the yummy things!!!


I love you Sean! You definitely know how to make my day!!
