  • ..For lack of a better title! Gosh!Can you believe it,we are already in to the second month of 2013!

    Today,I set some goals for myself-
    to lose at least 3 kgs by the 19th of this month.
    to get back to working out 4-5 days again
    to eat clean 5-6 days during the week..Wish me luck that I can stick to the plan!

    In other news,SD got a complimentary iPad Mini from his mobile phone company and he passed his iPad to Aadi.She was so excited about getting the iPad all to herself on the first day of Grade 1. The first day,by the way,was quite nice.I was a little worried,after dropping her off.She looked so lost..her friends were sitting at the front and there was no room for her there..but when I picked her up,she said,she had the best day ever and that her new teacher was the coolest!!The first thing she wanted to do with the iPad was to change the wallpaper from a picture of me to her favorite picture of Anan!! Aww sweetness!

    Speaking of Nanhi..well,she has set some new rules.The first one being-No changing her t-shirt or her diaper. When she needs wants a change, she will ensure you do just that..otherwise,don’t mess around with those two things,or there will be an angry toddler to deal with!
    The next rule is – No taking off her shoes.She wants to put on her shoes first thing in the morning and then,the shoes don’t come off.Last two days,she has been taking her naps with her shoes on! I tried to take her shoes off this afternoon,after she fell asleep and that woke her up..there were ANGRY tears.Sleep induced melt-downs are the worst! Luckily SD was home,because I had to leave for school pick up and he used his magic touch and rocked her back to sleep,while I quietly slipped out the back door.
    Another week comes to an end and the weekend is here ..I hope you all have a great weekend!!
    Much Love

  • I am getting restless and nervous. Aadi starts school in two days..My Babushka,my big girl is really a big girl.She starts Grade 1 on Thursday! 

    I can feel the same butterflies that I felt in my stomach,at the end of every school/college vacation.Tomorrow she also starts Ballet.She has been wanting to do Ballet for a long time. Finally we are ready.So tomorrow is the first lesson. She is so excited about it.

    I think she can feel the same butterflies as I do..because she has been so teary as well..and clingy and today,out of nowhere,she told me that she would miss me at school,in the smallest voice ever. 

    I know she will be fine..but I will miss her tonnes..and the little monkey who follows her around all day long,will be sad too!  Please take a minute to wish my sweetheart all the luck,as she begins a new year at school!
