We celebrated Khushi's birthday at home and finally got some pictures up. Khushi cut strawberry covered cheese cake with Anaybhai and Anshbhai. Then all of us ate the cake and wished Khushi happy birthday. Khushi got lot of cloths from Anaybhai, kaka, kaki, dada, ba, Anshbhai, mummy, and pappa. She also got cards from everyone. Khushi also got three balloons for her birthday.

Khushi also went in train couple weeks back. Khushi, Ansh, Pappa, and dada went to music class and from there to the caltrain station. There was a farmer's market at the station. Khushi had some cheese quesadilla and orange juice at the market. Then, we sat in the train. The train had two floors, we sat in the bottom floor going from Sunnyvale to Menlo Park. At menlo Park we walked around near the station looking at all the shops, clock tower, and water fountains. Then, we took the train back to Sunnyvale station. Khushi was tired from all excursion and went to sleep with train's rocking motion on the way back.

These days Khushi also goes out everyday with Dada, Mummy, and Anshbhai after picking Anshbhai from school. They visit temple, different malls, library, and shops. We also went to the mall kids playing area this weekend. Khushi loved playing in the play area of the mall and taking rides.

Happy Birthday to Khushi

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR KHUSHI!! Wish you many many many many many happy birthdays. We allllllll love you a lot. Our little girl is turning one today. Naanakadi dhingali keeps reminding us that she is growing at super rate. Naani Khushi can already stand on her own, crawl along the entire house chasing vaccum cleaner robot or her brothers, walk with a walker in entire house, and even say ba ba, pa pa, mum mum. Khushu has also done chaandalo, put pin in her hair curtsey her mami, and as of last night even has her ears pierced thanks to her dada and mummy. She has managed to look extremely cute in her earrings and pins. Khushi loves the music class songs is now showing strong preferences by saying yes or no when she wants to do something.

Khushi has been sitting in Ansh' high chair for a while now. She loves to call everyone from the high chair and give them food that she is eating. When Khushi wants to go to someone she puts both of her hands up in pick up gesture and yells aaaaaaaaa, until she gets picked up. She loves to get hugs from her brothers and is very very ticklish too :).

Over Christmas Khushi visited mama,mami,aditbhai, and Riyaben in Atlanta. She had a grand time there playing with everyone and being called smallest of them all, nana loko :). She loved all the attention from everyone in particular sitting and playing with Riyaben and Aditbhai. She also loved having mami dress her up in various dresses and hair pins. She visited christmas lights festival, jumper place, and had a grand time. She loved eating pizza, cake and pretty much everything in between.

Khushi also loves to visit Children's Discovery Museum, Chuckee Cheese, Kids Castle, and a play place called The Jungle. She just loves to crawl around in the house and find stuff. She started eating everything on the floor, but has soon realized that it is not good. Instead she has started eating spicy food from mummy and pappa's plates. She loves trying out all sorts of food. She also loves going to take shower with Ansh in the morning. While she has loved water from beginning, having her brother start out her day has become major fun activity for her. She likes to smile a lot and show her two bunny teeth.

Here are some pictures of Khushi (yes its been very long time and we still have plenty that we have not uploaded) having a blast with everyone.

Khushi beta tara mate ek Kavita Mummy atyare lakhe chhe.....

Pyari Pyari beni chhe,

Nani waat ma khush thai jawu,

Ha pan etalu hun jaroor kahu,
Tam vina hun na rahu,
Mari vahli Beti,
Tam vina hun na rahu.....
