I am a Big Brother
I bought this book for Sarath just to get him comfortable about talking about the baby and the fact that he is going to be a big brother. This is a very nice book. Sarath loves it. He has memorized the entire book and reads it aloud himself. The good part about the book is…
Parenting…..
Parenting is the most important and toughest job in the world – as far as I know. It is just so difficult sometimes that you just do not know what to do. In the last three years of being parents, me and S had to learn a lot about raising a very determined but the…
Terrible twos and trying threes
When Sarath hit 2 years, everybody (especially parents of older kids) told us to be prepared for what’s coming next. The ‘terrible twos’. We were scared. But, he was the easiest kid on the block. He did have occasional tantrums but, they were so easy to control. It was a breeze. We always thought we…
Our trip to Orlando!
Our trip was a long one so, I am going to split it into 2 or 3 posts. Let me start with our flight trip and our hotel. Although we traveled on the same dates, me and DH had to take separate flights to get there. DH’s company booked his ticket and when we tried…

It’s been a long time since I have posted anything and I feel like I am not connected to my blog anymore. I keep thinking of all the things that I need to write. Sadly, these thoughts come when I am in the shower or when I am driving and there is no way to…

When life gets busy….
.. blogging is the first one to get dumped to the end of my to-do list. So, why I am busy you ask? I am not sure either. There are so many things going on with me right now, that I just do not know where the time goes. How do people manage with 24…
The Completed Hickory Dickory Dock
By Jim Aylesworth. A very nice book. It is the extended version of the age old nursery rhyme. As the clock strikes from one to twelve, the mouse does a lot more than just running down. The mouse has a name Kevin (which we find out later in the story), rolls on the floor, shows…
