Phew...!!!

January has been crazy and it doesn't seem to be getting better. The best part is, its all fun crazy. Main reason for not being able to write the blog. 

Coping with the cold is the next major reason. I've spent many many years in the north, but ever since MMW took me away, i've become more of a coastal person. I just can't stand the cold. Let's just put it nicely, 'i'm a warm person'! Thankfully, its getting bearable now. 

Aanya's been quite a sport. From halter necks and ganji's she moved on to four layers of clothes, top and bottom. She could barely lift herself up. The first day was funny. She didn't know what hit her. After three layers came a windcheater. She couldn't even bring her hands together... cuteness personified!!! As the layers are slowly coming off, she's getting back to her mischief. I think, with a vengeance. 

There was an engagement and a 'not wedding' wedding in the family. Almost like a prelude to the main event in march. Great fun, family time, get-togethers. The Miss Purkayasthas stole the show. One of them is the bride to be. The other became famous as the 'tah-tah' baby!


MMW left for his new place of work. After so many months of having him around, its odd not having him around. On the phone it feels like he's in the next room, the truth is bitter. Bright ray of sunlight here, i'll be joining him soon! New place, faces, environment, challenges, am too excited!!! As of now, he's all alone, doing it all by himself. Wish we were together...

Happy Twenty Twelve

Some years are landmarks. 2011 was one such for me. 

Aanya happened. Main event. Life changed. Completely.  

Bashiku put on his much awaited stars. We were treated to and spoilt with some worldly pleasures!

Tini decided to take the plunge. Finally. We were introduced to some wonderful people. Soon to be family. 

Shreya evolved. As a designer. As a person. Her dream (NID) came true. 

The Ma's taught me a lot. About Mummyhood. Dealing with pressure. Believing in myself. 

MMW got transferred again. Hopefully for good two years! For once am not complaining. Yoohoo...

Friends too became parents; Left some behind, made some new ones, reconnected with some. Always kept in touch with the close ones. 

Cousins went places, accomplished a lot. Aunts and Uncles showered us with blessings. 

Twenty Twelve is already looking happy! There's a lot to look forward to. Good times with family. Reunion. The marriage. Travelling. Writing. Cooking. Weight loss. Shopping. 

Enthusiasm. Excitement. Energy. Love. 

Cheers!!!
