Last year was Anushka's first Diwali- she was about 2.5 months old. Her paati stitched a pavadai for her from my paati's ( see my post Cheers Paati) sari blouse piece.
Now the pavadai is like a midi on Anush.
Girl! You have grown( see her more recent pic in her appa's angavastram) and so has our delight in your antics/ escapades/ exploits.
Many more "Happy Diwalis" to you baby and to all of you out there! And Id Mubarak too.
Off to Mumbai for a break.
ooh. I had almost forgotten how she looked last year! she has grown!!
ReplyDeleteHey Art,
ReplyDeleteAw, she looks adorable! I hope she isn't frightened by the loud fireworks at this time!
Have loads of fun in Mumbai.

Nee

ReplyDeleteYour little girl is adorable!! Have a good vacation and happy diwali!
ReplyDeletehahahaha! a little out of context here but loved your "naam ke vaaste" post. N and I are in the same situation. I've retained my maiden name and we both get tagged by my name *grin*. We too do not have a marriage certificate and since we do not look close to marraigable age, we're going to be in a lot of s*** someday!!
ReplyDeleteHey Happy Diwali..... :) :)
ReplyDeletejus dropped by with season's greetings.. :)
happy diwali to you and to dear Anush...she looks lovely :)
ReplyDeleteshe is toooooo cuuuuuuutee.. :)
ReplyDeleteOk, finally here's my take on the heights! I thought I'd do one without getting Aadi into the picture....but looks like he's the picture, these days.
ReplyDeleteHeight of intrusiveness: An acquaintaince visiting our home takes one look at the curtains and says "these are lace - how do you guys do it,
without the whole world being able to see through the windows?"
Height of being offensive: People taking one look at Aadi and saying "O he's such a beautiful boy. He must take after his father!"
Yes, thank you for the compliment!
Height of taste: Aadi refusing food, but chewing on the paper napkin used to wipe his face.
Height of happiness: Aadi's giddy laugh when we put him in the bucket swing at the park and give him a shove
Height of blues: Celebrating festivals just by yourself.
Height of wonderment: When I look at people with 8 or 10 kids, instead of thinking 'how do they manage to raise so many' I wonder 'when and how did they manage to conceive so many?'
Height of possessiveness: Aadi pushing his father aside, so he can hug his Ma instead.
Height of neatness: Aadi neatly arranging into piles the contents of the dustbin he has just knocked onto the floor.
Height of peace: When Aadi sleeps zzzzzzz....
Height of materialism: My 16 month olds clothes occupy more shelves than my husband and my clothes put together.
Height of loosing value: My mom lamenting how she hasnt seen her grandson - and now he's 16 months old. The fact that she hasnt seen her own daughter since the last 2 and half years is completely forgotten.
Height of divine justice: The girl who invariably gave dirty glances to parents of noisy kids at restaurants, is now blessed with a noisy brat herself.
a happy Diwali and an enjoyable vacation at Mumbai
