Ni’s 9 Week Birthday Letter

Happy 9 Week Birthday, my angel and Happy New Year! It’s been a quiet week for us. With all the snow outside, mommy and daddy didn’t really take you out much this week, besides a visit to your grandparents house. We even spent New Year’s Eve at home with you because it was just too cold to be outside. But the night was fun. Mommy and daddy popped open a bottle of champagne and toasted the new year. You got a sip of gripe water as your toast because you seemed to couldn’t get rid of your hiccups.

But mommy and daddy gave you so many kisses and daddy said that you were the best gift we could’ve received. You were the blessing we both had long waited for. You know, sometimes when I see your daddy with you, I fall more in love with him. He truly loves you with all his heart and it shows on his face. Every time he sees you, his face lights up like a million candles and when you smile, the expression on his face is like fireworks going off. It’s truly beautiful seeing the bond he has with you. After all, you are his little princess.

Anyway, darling, I hope this new year brings all of us lots of joy, happiness and closer together. I hope you grow at a healthy rate and learn many new and amazing things. And I hope you’ll let me be your guide and hold your little hand through this year and always.

Happy 9 weeks darling and happy new year. Xoxox Mommy and daddy love your for always.

Happy Birthday to ME

Happy Dirty 30 Birthday to ME!

Today I pray for my year ahead to be blessed with happiness, great health, prosperity and lots of love and wisdom.

D bought me a chocolate mousse cake and Ni, D and I cut my cake at midnight; while mom took photos. I love celebrating birthdays at midnight. Before the sun even rises on your special day you begin with cake and celebrations with family. What an awesome way to begin your day.

I don’t know what D has planned for me today or tonight but all I know is most of my day will be spent with my little princess. We’re going to go for our first walk in our stroller today and then get some ice cream for mommy. Then mommy’s going to get her eyebrows done and then head back home for lunch. I’m looking forward to my day with my little girl and then dinner with daddy.

I hope all of you have a blessed day as well as I plan and hope to have.

Xoxo

Goodbye 2011. Welcome 2012.

2011 is gone! 2012 is finally here!!!! Here’s a drink to 2012 and all the shine, sparkle and change it promises to bring with it.

Leave what 2011 gave you behind. Forget all the sorrows and all the pains of that dreadful year. Close all those doors of misery and heartache. Forget all those financial woes.

2012 is finally here. With it comes the beginning of the new life, a brighter future and many beautiful moments. Everything we didn’t do in 2011 is available for us to do in 2012. All the battles we fought in 2011 are long gone now, as 2012 holds new challenges and new hopes and dreams for us.

So join me when I raise my glass of champagne and bid 2011 goodbye. Take a sip for 2011 and toast to welcome 2012.

Here’s wishing all of you a fantastic, prosperous new year.

Happy 2012 Lovies. Muah!

Count Down to 2012

With only two days remaining in 2011, I’m all geared up to getting started with 2012. Sure, 2011 hasn’t been all that bad. I’ve done a lot, a lot has happened and so on, so forth. But 2012, bright, shiny 2012 at this point seems like a heaven send. I’m getting married. I’ve already moved into a new home with D. I’m going to India. I plan to evolve my role at work and possibly increase my pay. So, many changes. It’s going to be great. I’m going to make sure it’s great.

I have so much enthusiasm for this New Year. I’m super psyched about all the changes that will be coming in my life. I’ll share all the changes, resolutions and hopes for the New Year as it begins.

For now, lets enjoy what’s left of 2011 and bid it farewell with family, friends and loved ones. I plan on having a small get together at our new place on the first to ring the New Year and say our goodbyes for 2011. Hope you’re all planning something similar. Do share how 2011 has been for you and what you hope to do, see and accomplish in 2012.

My Diwali

Thought I’d share some photos of my Diwali with all of you. It was a great day! I spent most of the day with D, had dinner with my parents and then came home to pray and light up the house.

Hope all of you enjoyed your day too.
