FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

 

 

Jenna started her first day of transitional Kindergarten.Transitional Kinder(TK) is for kids who have missed the school year due to the new regulations.She will be actually be spending two years at kindergarten . I was worried initially because she was missing the school year but veteran moms tell me that this is actually a blessing and she will find it easier to learn as she grows bigger.I really can't believe I have a kinderartener at home. It seems like yesterday I had her. I actually weeped when she left for school. She is at this stage where I feel she still is a baby but sometimes she looks and talks like a grown-up. Its almost two weeks since she joined here and she loves the new school. There are days where she is not too happy to go to school but I think that happens with everyone. I give her home lunch almost everyday but she wants to eat at the school cafeteria when they give Pizza or Mac and Cheese.Anika actually misses her sister when she is at school.The other day Anika was napping in her room and when big sister came in to have a look and called out Anika very softly.She almost immediately woke up and gave her this huge smile.Moments like this make my heart melt. I think I'm blessed : )

 

 

3 MONTH OLD

Anika's 3 month stats:

She weighs around 15 pounds now.

1. She can hold her head well and loves to sit.
2. She is not a big fan of tummy time and is yet to roll over. But she is almost there.
3. She loves to stand .
4. Gives huge smile to mommy,daddy,Jenna and even to strangers.
5. She loves to be held always.Thank you baby K'tan (baby carrier) .It has been a life saver.
6. She has started laughing and the noises she makes is so cute.

She has been sleeping for five -six hour stretches which gives me some much needed rest.She has been an easy baby until now.Now I hope I did not jinx myself by saying that.

Hi there!!!

Introducing the newest member in our family Anika Hanoon Khan. She is now almost 4 months old. I always had a thought on my mind whether I will be able to show the same amount of love and affection to another child. But I realized that children are God's gift and our love can grow.She resembles her big sis a lot and is unique in her own way just like her name Anika. She has this feisty personality and I think she will grow up to be like me. I'm going to chart her growth on this blog again just as I did for Jenna. So lets get started..

Long time No See!!

It been two years since I visited this blog. I stopped blogging for personal reasons.I didnt want all my personal stuff put out in the public.And then I think I became too lazy. Now I have decided to blog once again but its going to be for invited readers only.I have had friends and total strangers email me why I stopped blogging. Honestly,I'm flattered ,I didnt know people were reading me.One other reason why I want to blog again is we have a new member in our family Anika Hanoon Khan born on May 8th 2013 weighing 7 pounds 7.6 oz. I want to record her growth just as I did for Jenna. Its just great feeling to go back and read your older posts and see how Jenna has grown .The one thing I will not regret ever is blogging. So hoping to visit here regularly and having some conversation with all my mommy friends.
