Sara On Ice!

We took Sara to public skate at the Skylands Ice World first time today. She absolutely loved it as her friend Elena joined us too.

My Mini Me

Funny Sleep Position

Today Vihaan crashed (I mean literally- like legs half off and all...out cold!) on the sofa for a little over an hour.

Silas Condict with Friends

We had fund day with friends today at the Silas Condict county park. Running, playin tag, cart wheels friends- can't think of a better way to end the day!

First Day of School 2015

A Pre-Schooler and a 3rd Grader in the house!

Vihaan was just being too sweet and cute today!

Vihaan

Cuteness Overloaded!!!

Goldfish!!

This morning Vihaan's standing in the kitchen, pointing at the box of Goldfish and crying (b/c I'd already told him "no, not for breakfast"). Sara looks at him and says in her staccato, matter-of-fact voice, "Vihaan, tujhe pitti khaani hai. Mein teen tak ginongi....ek, do, teen....mein mumma ko bhi nahi bataogi. Jhapad padega ab tujhe!!" 

We need to shop to get more money!

Background: Few weeks back, Vishal and Sara went to "Stop & Shop" to buy some groceries. Vishal paid the bill and requested $100 as cash back. 

Today, I was explaining Sara that we cannot waste money and she needs to save money in order for us to buy her a bunk bed.  She said, "No mommy, If you go shopping at 'Stop & Shop' ,  they will give you money for shopping. Remember daddy got 100 dollars - he only shopped for $27."

ha! I wish! :)

Pint-sized Picassos

Today, Hannu & Sara were getting bored after some playtime. I said, "How about some painting fun?" :) I got them each a canvas and the kids did an art project in the evening. At first, I have them follow a pattern of vertical lines, But then I just let them decide and they wanted to add them horizontal lines. My only rule was, "Don't smear the colors too much." :) They both did surprisingly well with the paintbrush and the instructions. 

I love it so much I'm commissioning these artists for a few more pieces for our house!
