My first picnic ...

My first picnic was in Bangalore a place called Nandi hills and what a smashing picnic it was too, the weather was awesome clouded, occasional pitter patter of the rain and a distant view to Bangalore .... Mommy made some chicken/veg sandwiches, loads of chips, namkeen, etc etc and poppy maasi made chole, puri, sabzi, and an endless list of side dishes .... and i did see Naveen uncle, appu and dad hitting the beer bottles with vengeance ... thankfully mom packed my bottle too ;-) ....




Ahhhh .. thank you daddy that kiss made the picnic even better ...



Heres everybody looking very content after devouring all the goodies made by mommy and maasi ... specially cousin vaani who couldn't eat another cheese ball but was waiting patiently for the food to digest to pack in some more cheese balls but alas later some monkeys won the battle of snatching away the bag of cheese :)



Heres my cousin Minty didi striking a pose and looking as pretty as ever ... Notice the flowers in her hands she made a very pretty bouquet of wild flowers for her mommy ....

My first plane ride ...

hi all, mum and dad took me to Bangalore on my first plane ride to meet appu and ammama .... and not to forget poppy maasi and my cousins ..... i'll let the pictures below do the talking for my experience which was mostly spent in slumber ....

mommy i am getting a weird kind of a feeling ....



What do you think it is ?



Maybe my stomach is paining .....



hmmmm do you think the stomach ache was my stomach rumbling :-) ....



Maybe all I needed to do was sleep through it ....



good night mommy .... wake me up when we get there .... I wanna wish grandpa and grandma with a big hug :)

My Baptism



Another milestone in my life
On the appointed day 11 July 2007, I got dressed in my fineries











Then there was this photo shoot with mamma, dada, ammamma and appu



A last minute check with Appu regarding all the arrangements


St Marks Cathedral truly is magnificent. I am impressed. Lots of aunts and uncles were there. Some I knew but there were lots of new faces. I need to get to know them


Father Vincent Raj Kumar in the presence of my Dada, Mamma and my God Parents Ammamma, Appu, Massi and Nanu who was miles away at Yamuna Nagar( I need to settle my score with him for not having come), I was baptised as Mary Grace




A small intellectual discussion
