Ye Mera Lehnga....

Image
O My god, how pretty she was looking today in that Lehnga, really. Divya had made that lehnga for kshreya on Dussehra, but by that time kshreyu had not learned to sit properly. I was just thinking of that Effort of Divya nd thought of trying it once again today.. And kshreya was just looking Awesome... she stood with the support of glass sliding door of our living room. And when she got tired, she sat down. Her feet was in different position that it was looking so pretty as if she is giving some poses for the best shots. I took lots of pictures and she was enjoying that. She was holdinh her lahnga and pulling it up to hold the ball she had on her lahenga.. and looking so cute.. No doubt, she didn't look at the camera as she was busy playing with her toys, but never mind, atleast she is sitting quite and she could let me do my work. " Ye mera Lehnga , Bada hai Mehenga, Made by Divya Behena ".....

Fun Time Was Not Over..

I guess the fun and lazy time kapilji and kshreyu had yesterday noon was not enough. Today orning they were enjoying doing some naughty activities. Daddy laughed then kshreyu laughed, and then kshreyu laughed and daddy laughed. Can u think kshreyu in a vest, Hmmm yesterday she slept in a vest. She doesn't like to be covered with cloths so mush and that too in hot florida. she loves to play with Daddy's glasses ( spectacles ), I don't understand what she likes in that, No sound comes out of it but still she wanted to play with it. Morning are always beautiful time with kshreya, Rest of the day goes in household work, so we love to enjoy the special mornings with kshreya..

Lazy Bones..

Image
Daddy and kshreyu, both were getting lazy bones this noon. After lunch, they were so sleepy sleepy and had some fun. kshreyu wants to hang over kapilji and when gets tired, she cried. I was also wanted to accompany them, so i thought of taking some pics and then I joined them. We three was all in masti mood and full fun... And she is doing something wonderful with her eyes now. She blinks her eyes frequently and she looks so cute while doing that. Luckily, I got a picture of that.

Iron deficiency..

We got a call from the doctor that kshreya has slightly Iron deficiancy-Anemia. As she is on breastfeed, so this is normal to be slight iron deficient. We have to provide her iron rich foods, so that this shortcoming can be overcome. It usually happens to breastfed infants who receive no iron-fortified foods after 4 to 6 months of age. The iron in breast milk is absorbed three times better than the iron in formula, but around the time a baby starts eating solids, he needs additional iron in the form of fortified cereals and other iron-rich foods. Doctor said that diet is not enough when babies has some anemia, she needs a supplement usually in the form of drops. It usually takes a couple of months for the blood count to return to the normal. I hope everything would get normal soon. Today kapilji would take the iron supplemenyt prescription from the clinic and then we would start it.

Anemia Test

Image
During our 9 month visit to the peditrician, Doctor suggested for the anemia test as is on breastfeed. Between 9 to 24 months is a high risk for anemia. So we got the appointment for today at 10:15 AM at Labcorp. We reached there on time. We couldn't have to wait long, we just gave them our doctors letter for the test. And then after 5-10 minutes, they called us. At first they laid kshreya down on her back to take blood, but then the other nurse came in and said that she is big enough to sit in parents lap. so kapilji took her in his lap, they tied the belt and told kapilji to hold her tight so that she could not be able to move while the process. First when they inserted the syringe, she didn't cry, but when she pulled out the first test tube and fixed the second one she cried.Over all, she cried for 5 minutes, She is a strong girl , i must say... Lets cross fingers that everything would be normal to her. We also had our WIC appointment today at 3:00 PM. Thankgod they didnt ...

Davis Island..

Image
We were just lazy today, got up late and playing with Pari..Then Prajit called up at 1:30 PM and asked for Davis Island. We had no such plans for the day so we got ready. We started at 4:00 PM. It was windy weather today too, we went with Shraddha, Prajit and Divya. Arun was not there, as he went to attend some conference out of state. We just chatted out there. It was not green as earlier. Grass was dry and pale, shortcoming of water...but we had our entertainer with us... ofcourse kshreyu... little bit time pass with her... after one and a half hour we thought of going back.. Prajit had also some work in the lab, so we started from there. We went to hillsborough for the vegetables, took that.. Divya was with us. We got afraid of kshreyu's eczema, it was spreading on her forehead too. so wanted to buy some ointment for her, Vitamin shoppee was closed, In CVS, the cream was costly, and in walmart it was out of stock... Bad luck... We will buy it tommorrow for sure.. I can't...

Sun and Sand - Clearwater Beach..

Image
We wanted to spend some relaxing and family time with kshreya, so just started for Clearwater Beach. Its almost 30 miles from our home and took almost 45 minutes. We started at 4:00 in the evening and reached there by 5:30 PM, O God !! there was so much traffic on that way... Kshreya had a great nap in her carseat. Its a kind of commercial beach, doesnt seems natural . If it was not best but still it was good to go once. Kshreyu was in her pink swim suit and she really enjoyed the water. Dear Daddy put her in the water, she was standing and was getting happy with the coming waves which was touching her feet. Her hair were floating with the wind . We went to any beach after a really long time. Today there were clouds but still we wanted to see the Sun-set. Sun was playing hide and seek with us. Everybody says, it seems beautiful. We walked on the beach barefoot, climate was also very favourable. Kids were enjoying there, they were playing with the sand, water... and kshreyu was happy o...

Splish Splash Fun..

Image
As now everybody knows that kshreya loves being in water... She likes to be either in the big bath tub or the Basin... I use only basin of her bathroom which we don't use at all. If anybody use basin for baby bath fun, then it is necessary to clean it thoroughly... I do the same everytime I put her in basin... she loves watching herself in the mirror of the bathroom and the other things also attracts her a lot. Today also she enjoyed a lot in the basin and kept herself busy with water.. she wanted to hold coming water from the tap.. it was fun... It is her one of the best past time... She really enjoyes it.. as you can see from her pictures...

Happy Friday...

Image
Yeah... Today is friday again.. i don't know how kshreyu usually get to know that weekend has started. Though she feels happy when Darling Daddy comes from office to home in the evening, but today she was extraordinary happy. As soon as kapilji came she just wanted to be held by him. She was not ready to wait until Kapilji changes his clothes and fresh n up. She was very excited and we also got excited with her excitement. She started dancing, She really loves being with Daddy in the evening... some relief to Mum too...

Dress : Not A Stress...

Image
We bought this off-white dress for Pari on her first Diwali, but this was slightly big on her that time. Today I was cleaning her drawers and had a glance over it, so just wanted to try it on her. This was the dress gifted by Dear Daddy to her. She woke up at around 10:15 AM and she was looking fresh as usual, so I tried this dress right then. She was looking like a princess, really. Isha had brought silver kangans for kshreyu from India so I made her wore that too, and she was getting so happy with the voice of that kangans. I made her wore that kangans on some special times, not always, as she used to keep that in her mouth and her gungaroo stuck somewhere in the dress. So its good to keep that in dresser and better to be worn occasionaly... Some Pictures of my darling sweety Pari...I hope kshreyu enjoyed this time while I was taking pics...Can't say sometimes this all can ba kind of stress to them too... But my camera-lover kshreya, loves to get captured by Mum. I prefer cotto...

My Catty Style..

Image
My Sweetheart Kshreyu was so relaxed today, it could be seen from her laughter and happiness. Her face was shining like a star. Nowadays, she keeps her one foot on other when she sits.. it really looks like her daddy... it feels that she is grown up so fast... she wore a dress which Ximena gave to her.. i haven't seen kshreyu in bright color dress and she was looking pretty in that. Wen she was crawling, she looked like a cat... that dress has tail too.. Ha ha ha ... Funny... If babies are around then fun comes along ...I remember the song from Baba Sehgal..... " Daddy Ye Jaane Na, Mujhko Pehchaane Na, Mudke Na Dekhe Meri Cat-Walk..."

9 Month Dcotor Visit..

Today we had a 9 month doctor visit for Kshreya. But we both, i mean kapilji and me were not well today.... and thank god that we didnt have to wait long in the waiting area... and there were no shots for her ....wee he .... Thankgod. News about her development, so she weighed in at 19 pounds and 27.5 inches long. The doctor said she looked great. We told her about Eczema which flairs up in the windy and chill season, so she told us about one over-the-counter drug ( hmmm, kapilji knows about that ). Doctor told us that at this stage they do some lead test and anemia test, so we have to contact the laboratory which Medicaid covers. These are some pictures when we were waiting in the examination room. Yeah, we got one photo with the doctor too...but kshreyu started crying ( ufff starnger anxiety )... then doctor said, don't worry this too shall pass. By the time, we got to the reception area to make our next appointment, she stated laughing.... That's how my little charmer is... ...

Playing Alone..

Image
She always needs comany to play. But sometimes we get lucky when she plays on her own. Today I bathed her and gave her some soft toys. I haven't given these toys before ever to her, so they were new to her and she was enjoying to play with dark color purple bear. She sat on that and was pulling her ears. She was looking beautiful while playing and learning on her own.. Every parent must encourage babies to play alone. This activity boost their minds.

Holi Celebration ....2009

Image
Though HOLI is on 11th March this year, but " Student of Indian Association ( SIA )" has organized it on 8th March 2009 at Riverfront Park from 11:00 A.M to 4:00 PM. This was kshreyu's first holi, so how could we miss that and truly speaking there was real fun. they organized a small pool, colors, pichkaari, food, music... means a whole package of entertainment. We reached there at aroung 2:00 with all other friends - parul, priyesh, shraddha, prajit, divya , arun... all of them colored each other with great pleasure... then everybody took food, then danced.... And that day was a surprise day for me.... Yeah, Kshreyu was happy that day, she was dancing on the music, she was really enjoying all the colors and people... I guess she couldn't recognize them, that's why she was clam. At around 3:45 PM we went to parul's home with divya too. She had made "gajar ka halwa".....yummy........... And then priyesh called up Shridhar to color him.... hamari holi ...

Play Time with Daddy..

Image
Kshreyu is growing and she just gives a beautiful smile to her daddy when he comes back from office, because she knows that now Papa will play with her. She does all the acrobatics with Daddy, they enjoy each others company. She loves being upside down, palying with her musical toys, standing support toys. Kapilji Always play a game with her which we named " Find Papa! ". Kapilji puts blanket over her head, then Kshreyu pulls off the blanket and finds her daddy and giggles. Its real fun... Play time with Pari always refresh us from the tiredness. Time spent with her, playing with her is the best time we have now a days.... Kshreyu, Mummy Papa will always love you......
