Outdoor Play

With all of this beautiful weather we have been spending as much as possible outside. Here are some photos of our fun outside this weekend.

Swinging

Sliding - Can't find a pic!

Moon Bounce Fun

Riding

Sara rides her bike around the block everyday. She is getting so good at it that Vishal and I have to lace up our running shoes to keep up with her :).

Happy 32nd Birthday Daddy!

Chacha & Mahesh chacha came to celebrate Vishal's 32nd birthday!  It was a great birthday...vishal got to spend time with his friends & family ....can it get any better than that?!

 This year my "big SURPRISE gift" to Vishal was his first flying lesson. It was an experience and he enjoyed it!!! Love you baby!

Sara on her bike :-)

Sara loves riding her bike. All of a sudden last evening she started pedaling his training wheeled-bike. For a while we've had to push her on it, but something clicked in last evening and her feet started moving. So that's how she got to Target today.

Praying to God

This morning Sara was praying in the temple (the one in our Kitchen). She was folding hands and saying "Bhagwanji, mujhe achi ladki banana." :)

lol! (I had the benefit of context from Baa. From last few days Baa has been teaching her how God give us what we wish.)

Melts our Hearts

The smile that captivates our hearts every single time! We love you cutie pie!

Turtle Back Zoo

Vishal took a day off today and took Sara to the Turtle Back Zoo where she got to see lots of animals, pet the sheep, take a train ride and walk around the park. Here are a couple of shots!

Pure Excitement 

A Sea of Plastic

Wow. No one ever told me having a kid meant that I'd be overcome by large plastic objects. It seems that suddenly we've acquired a selection of bulky plastic toys and I feel like they are taking over my living room/patio/garage/life. At least they make Sara smile :)

  

Nap Time

This afternoon Sara put all her stuffed animals in the tent we got for her (that is currently in our family/living room) and then asked for a blanket. It was close to nap time and I reminded her of that. She looked adorable and had a nice 2 hour+ nap in her tent - with all her toys.

Daddy! Daddy!"

In the evenings, Sara always stand near the window and says, "Daddy! Daddy!" Daddy's daily homecoming is a celebrated event. Sara is always very excited to see her Daddy come home.

Big Girl Bed!

Sara reached a huge milestone today... we converted her crib to a toddler bed! Our little girl is growing up way too fast. She absolutely loves her new freedom and took to her new bed with no problems at all. Her first reaction when she saw the bed without the rail was "Uh-oh... toot gaya?"
