Long Time No Post.....

Sorry for the delay in my posts..... been busy....

Will try to catch you up....

Milan is loving having my parents around. He is enjoying the attention from both my parents!! It is really sweet. Over the weekend, he was out cruising on his bike (yes, pretending it was a motorcycle, I am sure), and CRASH.... into the back of a car!! Bloody nose, bloody lip..... and a bruised ego!! He is doing better, but he can not ride his bike for a few days. I am sure that this is not the last of his spills on his bike. When will he learn???? Vim is worried that his nose will scar, I think that if it does, it will make for a good story when he is on a date!! Right??

Some of you remember Milan's flair for style back at home. When going to school, he would wear a shirt and tie, and style his hair. Well, he is not sporting the shirt and tie as often here, but he is now doing the daily hair-gel thing. Some days he get out the hair dryer to get a nice style going.... should we be worried???? In the morning he won't let anyone touch his hair (his masterpiece)! He is afraid we will mess it up.

Milan is really loving his Bakugons! Now, these things are a big craze her in Ozone. Is it all the rage back at home too??? So now that Milan has his own bakugan's he feels that he is part of the 'bakugan-club'. However, we put a rule down to him that he can not trade his Bakugans. He has to wait until my parents leave to trade (it seemed like a good date out in the future). Well now he asks how many more days before Nana goes home??? Ironic, eh! He was counting down for them to arrive, now he is counting down for them to leave.... I know that it is just the bakugan trading that he counting down for!

Mira is enjoying doing craft and art projects with my dad. Everyday the get up to something creative. It is really sweet!

Mira is enjoying have "nana's cooking"!! Manjula is learning more Gujarati cooking!! It is really nice. Let me tell ya, I am getting really spoiled!!! Honestly, I can't remember the last time I cooked a full meal.... seriously!!

My dad's brother and dad's sister from our village in Gujarat have come to visit us too. They are currently travelling the south. They will be back tomorrow. Mira and Milan are enjoying their time with all of them, especially with Jadu Bapa (my dad's younger brother)!!

We have some travel plans coming up..... We have a wedding to go to in Hyderabad the last weekend of the month! And, we planned our trip for the week that the kids have off at the end of March. We are doing a whirl-wind tour of Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. It will be a quick spin thru each place, but enough to get a flavor of each place.

In between all of that...... we have more visitors!!! YEAH!!! Vim's cousin from Toronto will be coming over to visit with us for a weekend in March.

Needless to say.... we are busy.... it is a good busy!!! It is making the time really fly by!!
