Pack and Play
 |
28th Dec, 2007 - In case I have not yet mentioned it in my blog, we are moving to Dallas next year. I can grow up and be a cowboy there. My parents decided to start packing some of the things early on so that it will be easier later when the time comes to move. There are plenty of boxes and open cupboards around the house and so I am having a good time pulling things out of the cupboards. I wonder whats in store for me in Dallas or should I say "What do I have in store for Dallas?" |
Navagraha Pooja at the Malibu Hindu Temple
27th Dec 2007 - My parents decided to do a Navagraha Shanti Pooja today at the Hindu Temple in Malibu. We started off early to the temple with lots of flowers, fruits and sweets. We got to the temple at around 9:30 in the morning and it was quite cold up in the hills. My parents started the pooja while my Bapamma took care of me (boy did I give her a hard-time). I wanted to run around and also be a part of the pooja. I wanted to sprinkle the teerth, pour the ghee in the havan, throw the rice. There were two Bhat Maams, Prasad Bhatji and Shashtri Bhatji. They were very nice. They gave me a Hershey's kisses and a Ferrero Rocher chocolate.
After we finished the pooja, we visited the rest of the gods in the temple and then went home. It was a nice day for me. I got to run around the temple.
Baby you can drive my car
 |
26th Dec, 2007 - One of my favorite things to do these days is to pretend to drive my father's car. Whenever I go to the garage, I sit in the car and pretend like I am driving the car. I prented to start the car, change the gears and then turn the wheel like there is no tomorrow. I cannot wait to grow up and drive my own car someday. I even say "Ka" "Ka" now. You can see the excitement on my face from the pictures. |

25th Dec, 2007 - It Christmas here today and its the biggest holiday in America. Everyone must be opening the gifts that Santa got for them. I wish it was christmas everyday. We had a day of fun at home, playing the garage, watching Barney and eating good food. In the evening, my father drove us around the city as we went to see some Christmas decorations. We saw a few decorations. I got tired and slept on the way back. Merry Christmas Everyone!!! |
Trip to the Carlsbad Premium Outlet
 |
24th Dec, 2007 - On our way back from San Diego, we decided to stop at the Carlsbad Premium Outlet. My parents and grandmother wanted to do a little shopping. The outlet mall has the typical outlet stores like Gap, Tommy Hilfiger, Bose, Calvin Klein, Osh Kosh, Polo Ralph Lauren etc. We stopped at some of the stores and bought a few things. I had a lot of fun running in and out of the stores. There were many water fountains in the mall and I had fun trying to play with the water.
I even saw Santa at one of the shops. He must have long day today as he has to deliver all those gifts tonight. I told Santa that I have been very nice. |
My First Pictures
 |
24th Dec, 2007 - On our trip to San Diego, I took a fancy to my father's camera. I saw him clicking pictures all day long and I said to myself...."Let me give it a try". Once we reached our hotel room, I insisted on taking the camera from my parents. I leant to turn it on and then there was a series of flashes and then my first pictures were born. Since then I have managed to take a few more pictures. Click the read more link below to see them. |
