15 Marbles

Moments.Musings.Memories. ❤️Gathering little marbles from ordinary days and keeping them for our memory jar. ❤️

  • O.M.G.  My Babychino is standing! She had been trying to let go off both hands for the last few days and she did it today-At 9 months and 2 weeks!She’s been cruising along furniture ftoday’s or the last couple weeks, but I can’t explain my excitement today! 

    If i was thrilled beyond belief, when it was Babushka’s turn, then this time my happiness has increased ten- folds,just by looking Babushka’s excitement and pride about her sister:) I can’t stress more about the fact that Babychino is more hers than ours!!

    There was a mad chaos in the house- 2 parents and 1 sister, cheering on an excited baby…one mother trying toget her to stand again, so we could take pictures, this time-  trying to click pictures with the camera- one super- excited big sister clicking away furiously with mummy’s phone…. Gosh…i can still see the scene in my mind’s eye.. And Love  it!

    I will try to post a picture soon…I still dunno how to upload pics from the iPad. 

    This, by the way, is post 8, day 8!

  • Neither the blogathon, nor the weight loss journey!! The 12 week challenge that I had started has officially ended today.. But it’s not over for me…I haven’t officially signed up for the next round of the challenge but I will follow the plan guidelines- my next goal is to lose another 5-8 kgs till Babychino’s birthday- that’s 10weeks away.If I aim for 5, that’s 500 gms per week…that doesn’t sound so scary…:) let’s see…one step at a time…slow and steady:)
    It’s a stormy night here…and all the nightly sounds are even spookier, when everyone else in the house is sleeping! Lol! There! I’ve managed to produce another post!!!
    More tomorrow 🙂
    Much love

  • Only day 6 & I have nothing to write. Have been rather sick – cancelled the swimming and went to the doctor instead.he asked me to rest..after giving me nebuliser- but really, can moms really rest?
    I was sick of takeouts and of feeding babushka crappy fast- food. So came home n cooked chicken curry and sambhar -extra cooking for tomorrow-because I hope to sleep most of the time between school drop n pick up!
    I m in bed now.. Will write tomorrow

  • Yippee it was Saturday- my workday! Today was pretty tame compared to last week. I came home and then we had to go for a 1st birthday party-it was fun for the older kids and too noisy for the little ones. The birthday girl spent most of her time on her mum’s hip and babychino’s preferred perch was SD’s shoulder!

    Tomorrow is another long day-a birthday party ,swimming,eye appointments and may be a visit to the dr if I am still not feeling better. Oh! I forgot to tell you,my contact lenses gave my eyes a very bad reaction and I was in a bad shape for a couple of weeks-they are still very sensitive to light but at least,I can see and it doesn’tI feel like I m looking through a foggy glass. 

    Thats all for now, I am going to call it an early night:)

    Have a good weekend everyone:)
