Blessings come in many shapes,

In sizes large and small,

But a brand new little baby is the sweetest of them all.

Atharv completes 3 months. Aba-daba-doooo

Today my son, Atharv completed three months. What a feeling! I really thank god for giving me such a cutie pie. He is such a happy and laughing kid. No wonder his grandpa has named him "Happy". I am blessed to have a such baby.

He has already started talking. He talks to the babies which I have put on the wall. He chats with things which are bright in colour. He loves to chat with anybody and everybody. He is comfortable with everybody. He loves red, just like me. He gargles with milk when I feed him. He kicks me with his little leg when I refuse to feed him. Nothing can beat the pleasure when he looks at me and smiles.

He loves to watch the ceiling fan. He loves his neck strengthing and other exercises which I make him do, especially 'the wheels of the bus goes round n round'. He loves to kick his mosquito net.

We all congratulate Atharv on completion of three months. LOVE YOU SO MUCH..MUAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Atharv turns 2 months old - 10 Jan 2009

U are more perfect than we could have hoped.
More handsome than we could have dreamt of,
more precious than we could have imagined...
we love you more than we could have known.

We did some shopping for our Poochdi. We bought a baby carrier and clothes for him. Chetan immediately put Atharv inside the bag and like a Kangaroo started flaunting his pouch with the baby.

Atharv's First Flight- Delhi to Mumbai

It was 14th December 2008, when Atharv was just one month and 4 days old, we took Indigo flight from Delhi to Mumbai. Aayi was with us. Atharv was not at all scared during his first flight. He was awake during take-off n landing and was very happy. Like a good bachha he slept during the flight.

I had great time with Mummy-Papa and our people in Delhi. Mummy fed me enough and papa took great care. Mummy and I saw loads of movies, enjoy long nights and long chats. Whereas with Papa, I enjoyed having breakfast discussing worldly issues/news and the tea time in the evening.

Atharv's - 23 November 2008

We can call it a letter ceremony which took place at Sunder Vihar Gurudwara at Paschim Vihar in Delhi on 23 November 2008. Celebrities present on the occasion were: Atharv himself along with Dada-Dadi, Nani, Paro (as in wings) wali nani, Darshan & Mohini Buji. Also seen Atharv's Mom & Dad :-) at the venue.

Atharv looked extremly calm & quite. Afterall what can you expect out of a 13 days old Bachada.

Why we named him Atharv

Atharv is the first Veda written by shrutis as per ancient Indian Civilisation history. It is the first veda and also one of the names of God Ganesha. Atharv means first in the lot, also means beginning of the world. It also means satisfaction and peace.

In Sanskrit there is a word called 'tharv', which means wavering, unstable'. Atharv means stable.

Happy New Year

I remember Snigdha calling Atharv - HOT :-)

When she saw him for the first time, he loved him so much that she stayed back for some hours at the hospital. She loved his eyes.

The countdown has begun. Only ten days to go. The expected date of delivery is 16 November, but Dr. said once the 9 months are completed delivery can happen anytime and if does not happen they will induce pain to deliver. Baby’s weight is 3.2 kgs.

Today I told mummy that, “Somehow I know the baby will come on 10th. Let’s wait & watch.”
