22nd April 2011

Had the gals evening out as Shub took care of him. Friday went to Samyukta's house for dinner where Aarav cried the whole time as the temperature had fallen and the house was full of people.

Sunday was Saachi's bday in the park. Aarav enjoyed looking everywhere and slept as I walked around the park " keeping " him asleep. :)) Everyone loves gushing over him.

Came home, had bhel and then ended up with cold the next morning due to lack of sleep ( 2 nights in a row ). Monday tuesday were miserable with cold. Shub stayed half day monday with us as I got 2,3 hours of sleep and then yesterday was our anniversary. Pics say it all. Just love Shub for taking off and giving Aarav and me a wonderful time.

Aarav going crazy behind the flowers was nice and the dinner at Texas De Brazil was FANTABULOUS.

Things that make Aarav Laugh

Woogly boogly wooo - woooiwooiwooiwoooi. Creeping up his leg and tickling his tummy.

Making him box soft toy and throwing the toy far.

Pulling the rocking chair one way and another.

Throwing him up in the air.

10th April 2011 - Aarav's first visit to Park

Awesome outing in the evening. Went to Maymont park and then Barnes and Noble. Was just a nice day over all. Took great pics. Feeling suitably exhausted and relaxed. Have to get some books now. For Aarav and me.

The lunch at indian buffet was kinda dud as was the time we spent at home later ( mot of the time went in managing the kids ) but the evening with Emy andthen with shweta for dinner was nice change. Shubham, Cedrick n Vineet had gone for St.Patrick's day evening out.

9th April 2011

Has been a hectic week over all.

Monday guys from pune office of sagitec came for gudi padva dinner for pav bhaji, puran, besan chillies and kheer.

Wednesday evening I went to library and got a ton of books while Shub was with Aarav. Later we got sandwiches from Firehouse Subs. Was nice.

Thursday pregnent shweta came with family for dinner of kadi, cabbage, palak paneer, besan mirchi, ras malai. Hiya came to kitchen saying " aunty, ther is something yummy in my nose " :))

All loved the food. Was nice working around Aarav's schedule. Got little used to doing things with him, asleep and awake. Friday evening went to Red Robin with the waitress saying Sorry for everything. Today morning after a lateeeeeeeeeeeee morning awake we went out for Vietnamese and had the food in leisure. Came home and Shubham re arranged the upstairs room while I played with Aarav and did the kitchen.

Spoke to Tracy yesterday about her Dubai/India trip with Rhea and God, made me thankful for all that I have. Shubham and the family I have now. Reminded me for the grumbling b*tch I am when I'm tired and sleepless. Shubham said in the night I should vent at him and just relax. God knows when I'll get to relax but then that's life !! Shubham is great in all other ways.

The weather is hot and cold and it's making us crazy. I'm scared Aarav will get a cold. Hopefully not !!

Things that make Aarav Laugh

Throwing cloth at him.

Shaking head fast fast with the bangs swaying, saying hui, hui, hui, hui.

Shaking both rattles, small and long wind chimy one together.

Playing hide and seek through the car seat bar making the sound " poof ".

Tickling his tummy sometimes.

Kissing his feet fast fast.

Starting the massage with his neck has him super ticlish.

Pretending to eat his feet.

Mimicking explosions.

3rd April 2011 - Aarav Rolls Over

Saturday - Golden Coral , yuck and indian grocery shopping with some cleaning and cooking .

Sunday - Had Bhavneet, Jasleen, Emy, Cedrick and the kids over. Danny thru his regular tantrum and the evening flew by in food arrangements and pacifying aarav due to lack of sleep, as Shub had to put his jammies on when he was sleeping. Today he's learnt Onesies are an oufit in themselves.

Then as in the end as we gals tried to play iwth him on his tummy, when to pacify him I put him on his side, lo and behold he just rolled over. Just like that ... !! I've been trying to teach him since the past 4 days when I learnt was rolling over was ... I'm so proud of him. My jaan !! 

Haha Moment

Aarav was playing with his rattle and hitting it on his hand via his head, getting hurt each time. Lead to some crying when the pain surfaced. lolzz
