Week 7: My first Christmas

Hello Everyone,

How is it going? I am doing well. I had so much fun this week. It was my first Christmas. I enjoyed thoroughly. In the morning I and Anshbhai got presents from mom, dad, dada, dadi, and kaka, and kaki. One of the gifts was awesome UCLA gear, go bruins!! :) We also took a ton of pics, as you will see below. We also got gift's from my kaki's brother and dad's cousin Niteshuncle. Then, we had some visitor's in the evening (my kaki's boss), they also brought bunch of gifts for us. Then, a day after Christmas, we went to Diptiauntie, Hemantuncle, and Stutididi's place, where I got even more gifts. In fact I got one of the most thoughtful gifts there. Hemantuncle's father sewed a woolen blanket, booties, and a hat for me. That was soooo sweet of him. I wish I would see him again. I would like to give him a big hug :) In short, Christmas was awesome. There should be more festivals like Christmas. Hey, wait a minute, how come we don't do this for Diwali??? ;)

Developmentally, I have started to make lotsa cooing sounds. I have also started to recognize my mom and dad and their voices a little bit. And finally, I also have much better control over my hands, so I play with them and also use them for sucking by myself. Finally, I also got couple of new nicknames.One is squirrel, since I bring my hands near my face whenever am hungry. The other is elf. As you will see in one of the pictures, my cap always goes above my ears and settles between my head and ears, showing some hair :).

That's all for now folks. I will try to upload pics for our celebrations soon.

Adios till tomorrow,
Anay
