Cutie Crawlies...

Today is the first time you have started to crawl properly. So far it has been getting up on all fours, and trying to move or keep balance.

Daddy's Days Off...

Well, so it begins officially today. The first Sunday of my non-employee life. Have been going out for work and things, but nothing more. It is fun to stay home and watch you play and jump. We are having fun together.

Depressing Sunday

It's not been a very nice day. Some disturbing news from Philippines about various people, illnesses and general troubles. Mommy has been very stressed about that since morning and even though I did't know about it when I left for office, there was something distinctly depressing about the morning. Maybe it's the first working day after an exciting Diwali celebration.

Worries about the job continue to hound. There's only one interview tomorrow and it is a big one. Am not too hopeful about it. The business partnership with Subin continues to dawdle along. Have a few ideas and am excited to work on them - surely there will be something good coming out of this. On that note, will close and continue onwards to read the astrology zone forecast...

My little monster..

So it is confirmed now. You are a B-R-A-T, brat. You are restless all the time, you actively seek attention all the time and you make our lives difficult. But beautiful difficult. We love and lap it up all. Each and every thing about you we do love. You make us as happy as happy can be!

So we had a lovely afternoon, thanks to Mommy's free internet. We hooked up and chatted with family back in Jaipur. Granddadajee saw you live for the first time. So did Tinkoo Chacha and Aditi Chachi. Needless to say, they were happy. They wished us all Happy Diwali.

Dhan Dhan Dhanteras

The dhan meaning wealth earned this month, not to be confused with Dhaan meaning grain - has been duly spent on buying the gadgets. And today is dhanteras - the first day of the festival of goddess lakshmi, Diwali. This is your first diwali and Mommy has been pestering Daddy to buy you golden earrings or a bangle. Earrings mean getting your ears pierced, something that gets Daddy sweating. So bangle is what we settled upon. So today evening we made the journey into the gleaming golden city of gold - the Dubai gold souq.

To avoid the parking rush, we parked our car on our side of the creek and took a ride on the capable air-conditioned water bus of RTA to cross the creek. It was a good 5 minute ride. Once inside the souq, couple of hours went by quickly as we struggled to find the perfect match for your petite arms. A hastily scooped Baskin Robbins and a lame gold biscuit is all we got back with.

I was making fun of how you were showering extra smiley smiles and extra lovey-dovey love on me today. Just another woman aren't you?

Day of the Gadgets

So Mommy's gotten busy with her blackberry and I am on the macbook - generally whiling away time, doing nothing important. Thanks to Mommy's 'social' skills, we've got free internet. Which we shall use and enjoy.

New Day November

It is the 1st of November, and there's something new in the air. Today Daddy purchased his new macbook pro, got mommy her new blackberry phone and met a new client for the new venture which he's gonna work with his friend and partner Subin. Don't know how far, or where it will take us, but something is starting up. So let's see.
