Happy Anniversary to my Parents


 Image

Aug 22, 2006 - It was three years ago that my parents got engaged in Bangalore. I am sure life has changed a lot for them since that day especially with me being there now. My uncle Rajesh was still at home and so my mom, uncle and I went to the Singapore Express restaurant in Marina Del Rey for lunch. It was a nice day for a walk so we walked to the restaurant. They ordered Chicken Sambhal and Singapore Noodles. Overall, I think my uncle enjoyed the food there.

In the evening when my father came home, we went to the Elephant Bar Restaurant for dinner.  We had a good time there. I tried by keep awake but alas, I feel asleep.

Another Uncle's Visit

Aug 21, 2006 - Today  my Mom's cousin Rajesh visited us. He lives in New Jersey but is studyting in Michigan. He was here for a couple of days on some business. We had a good time during his stay here. We went to the Marina, had a nice long walk, coffee, ice-cream etc. I really enjoyed the cool breeze. I went an hour over my dinner time but did not complain. We listened to some Indian music all day long too.

I had a good time with his visit as it meant someone other than my parents was there to play with me.  He will be here tomorrow as well. Tomorrow is my parent's engagement anniversary.

Living in a Box


Image 20th Aug, 2006 -  I think I must have mentioned that we are moving to a new apartment at the end of the month and so my parents have started packing their stuff which means, lots of boxes in the house. Everywhere I roll its boxes so I have a good time kicking them. IMHO,  The hollow ones make the best noise. We are almost half done with the packing this weekend. My uncle Rajesh is visiting us from New Jersey tomorrow. I will be meeting him for the first time. My mother has cooked some nice Bhindi Masala today. In the evening, we went out for a walk to the Marina. Its the last few days here for us and then we will move to our new apartment.

Hey Nikhil

19th Aug, 2006 - We finally decided where we want to move so the packing has now moved to a new level. My parents are packing furiously. All I see is more boxes for me to kick. Laughing We spent the day listening to songs from the 80s. They played a song about me.

Oh Nikhil, you're so fine,
You're so fine you blow my mind
Hey Nikhil! Hey Nikhil!

Oh Nikhil, you're so fine,
You're so fine you blow my mind
Hey Nikhil! Hey Nikhil!

Oh Nikhil, you're so fine,
You're so fine you blow my mind
Hey Nikhil! Hey Nikhil!

Hey Nikhil!!!
 

My Learning Booster Seat


 ImageAug 19th, 2006 -  Now that I have started eating solids, I need to sit upright so that I can eat the food easily. My parents bought the Fisher Price Learning Booster Seat for me.  I think its a nice seat as I am able to sit in it comfortably. I am still unable to sit upright on my own, but in this I can sit comfortably without falling down. The booster seat has a 3-position removable base tray and 3 height adjustments. We can also fold it and carry it around as it has  a shoulder strap for easy carrying. Its also dishwasher-safe. My parents also bought the toy insert version which has a small toy for learning and music activities. Some day I will learn about number, letters and food.  My parents originally bought the "Boppy" for me, but its very soft and I was not able to sit upright in it.
