Do you know what’s the best part of my day,every Saturday?
Cuddling up with my babies…usually after I finish work,we grab a quick bite- perks of working in a shopping center…and then we come home to flop on the couch…me and my babies…SD usually leaves us to ourselves,by then he is ready for his alone time.
So,like I said..on the couch..cuddling with my babies,they are just doing their own things- watching tv,babbling,chewing on toys and all the while making sure,some part of their body is touching mine,I am not even allowed to shift even a teeny bit…absolute bliss..I tell you!
After we’ve had our share of cuddles,we move to the bedroom,to snuggle up and take a long nap… Babushka usually is the first to wake up…and she sneaks out to play or watch tv, Babychino,wakes up next and keeps babbling,playing with my face and hair….I have a big smile on my face as I type this…:)
What’s the best part of your day? Do share:)
Have a great weekend,everyone!
Day 11- Mother’s Day at school
Babushka’s class celebrated Mother’s day today. The teacher had set up various activities- writing a journal for mum, making a tea-cup shaped cookie,by sticking a marshmallow and polo on a cookie:), hand massage:) and in the end, all the kids had to say why the loved their mum.. Someone said- be ause she loves me.. Someone else said because she cooks for me.. Another one said because she helps me..yet another one said- because she cuddles me..and my Babushka said…because she takes me to the park!! Lol! Yes simple and straight!!

When all the kids were called to the mat,Babushka took Babychino with her and Babychino sat happily in her sister’s lap- clapping, when the kids sang:) Babs friends took turns to click pictures with BabyC!
Another week is ending… Yay yay! Work day tomorrow.. More later:)

Day 9
I fell asleep,with the iPad in bed…last nite I went to bed with interesting bed- mates!!! My iPad,my kindle and my phone for the alarm and my sweetness, Babychino!
SD and I have decided to divide and rule! Rule what? You ask… Our house..which has been taken over by the girls…do you know how long it has been since him or I slept flat on our back or tummy for the whole night?? Lol! I don’t even remember!! We bring Babychino to our bed sometime around 1 or so, because that’s when her dream feeds begin..and Babushka creeps in sometime after that… And then, they both spread out on the bed and we are like two safety- rails on the side!!!
So for now, SD n Babs have moved to the guest room and BabyC and I in the master….. Sigh…the things you do for sleep….er … Your children:)
She is standing!!!
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!
Day7- I am not giving up!
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
Day 6
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
Day5
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:)
Day4
This week sure has gone by quickly…today was a nice day in the sense that I got to rest till afternoon,because SD was working from home,so took a nap with Babychino and woke up feeling better.
Babushka started tennis at school today- it was so cute,watching her run around with the heavy racquet.after tennis,we headed to the shops to buy birthday presents.its the third week in a row when we have birthday parties to attend on both the days of the weekend!
Watching a movie now- Ghost Protocol – babushka snuggled next to SD, Babychino sleeping and the highlight of my day has been tackling the laundry- last load of washing is in and another lot in the dryer- I wish the laundry got done itself…wishful thinking, yeah?
Anyway, have a nice weekend everyone!
Day 3
Cold and wet- that’s Melbourne!
Flu-ridden….yes that’s me!
Curiousity- that’s Babychino- about what her sister is eating!
Happily tortured-that would have to be Babushka-she lets her sister pull her hair,climb up on her ..and then she returns the favor!
Cacophony of baby babble and contagious giggles- that would be the Suburban House after 3pm!
Sweetest hubby- now that is the SD without a doubt- he is on his way home and has promised to make me masala chaiwhen he gets home:)
