Rayan's First Christmas

This was Rayan's first Christmas! He had a great time with family. Ry loves grabbing the ornaments from the tree and touching the lights. He's been so busy with that, he paid no attention to the gifts! Christmas Eve we had Nana, Nani & Sammy come over for dinner. Ry got to open his presents before bedtime. First he opened his gift from Nani & Nana.


And then he opened his gift from Sammy Mama, Elmo! Ry loved it!

Christmas morning Ry slept in till almost 9! What a nice gift for Mommy & Daddy! Then he got up and played with his gifts and opened some more.

In the afternoon we headed over to Ajay & Kareena's house for lunch and to visit Dadi & Dada. Kareena and Ry had lots of fun together, opening gifts, eating paper, and looking at all the toys they got!





To continue the Christmas fun, we headed to our annual Secret Santa party with my cousins. This year it was at Alisha's house! Ry had fun hanging out with Alisha and playing with all her toys.

Happy Holidays!

Happy 1st Birthday Kareena!

Kareena's first birthday party was this evening at Little Gym. Rayan had so much fun helping his cousin celebrate her first birthday!

So Much Snow!

This weekend was a very snowy one! We got about 17 inches of snow! Me and Ry were not feeling well, so we stayed in and watched Piyush shovel us out.

And we ate alot!

On Sunday, after the snow stopped we were able to get out of the house. First we let Ry check out the snow. He seemed to cold to enjoy it!

In the evening we attended Brady's 2nd birthday party. Ry had a great time crawling around in the mini moon bounce. Happy Birthday Brady!

11 Months Old!

My baby is 11 months old! Here he is with Mr. Bear again!

Hangin with Kamran and Meeting Dupal Masi

Rayan had a fun weekend. We went over to the Sanghani's place for dinner. Hema cooked a nice meal for the adults and the boys hung out! They hadn't seen each other in months and had a lot to catch up on!


Later during the weekend, Piyush's Kaki & cousin Dupal came into town for a visit. They met Rayan for the first time!


And he had lots of fun playing with all the toys at Dadi & Dada's house. Thanks Ajay for sharing with Ry! He loved the little ride on toy! Ajay, Kareena and Ry were all smiles meeting Kaki & Dupal Fui. Come and visit again!

Happy Birthday Sammy Mama!

It was Sammy Mama's birthday yesterday and we went out for dinner. Rayan had a hard time sitting still but he enjoyed the food and company!

Daddy taught Rayan how to color!

But Ry was much more interested in chewing on his place mat!

Snowy Weekend

On Saturday during the the snow, we stayed home and enjoyed some fun times with Ry. He helped me and Piyush put the Christmas tree up. He likes to touch the lights on the tree and crawl under it. I think he was having more fun crawling after the vacuum while Piyush was cleaning up the needles that fell!

After his nap, we went outside to enjoy the snow. It wasn't Ry's first snow, but the first snow he was old enough to play in!

Admiring the snow from inside.

Yummy snow!

Funny Rayan

Rayan is such a funny little boy lately. He is always dancing, laughing, or talking. He loves phone. If he sees me or Piyush on the phone he starts pretending he is on the phone too. If you just say, 'Hello' he puts his hand or whatever he has in hand to his ear. Too cute. His dancing is the funniest. If he hears any music, he drops his toy, puts both hands in the air and starts bouncing and then clapping. He also loves Sesame Street. These are some pictures of him watching. Look at how happy he gets when Elmo is on. I couldn't choose just one, so you get them all!




This is a funny video of Rayan cracking up while playing peek-a-book.
