First Birthday

I am one year old now. Amma and Dada celebrated my first birthday on February 15th. My grandparents were here too.

Pinkatha visited us just for my birthday. Dollatha wasn't able to make it to my birthday weekend, so she came to our place the previous weekend. It was very nice of them to come and see me. They are my mom's closest cousins. We had lots of fun. I was sooo busy playing with Dollatha that we didn't take a lot of pictures. The only one I could find with both of us is this:

Surya ammamma and Tatagaaru (my grandmom's sister and her husband) came from Corning for my Birthday. Deepthi pinni and Kapil babai also came to our place on my birthday along with Kapil babai's mom and brother. Pinkatha and Dollatha's cousin Indira who lives in Baltimore also visited us.

Early in the morning, everyone came into my room and started singing "Happy Birthday". For a minute, I didn't know what was happening but I was very excited to see everyone singing and smiling. Here is a picture of me at this point:

As I came downstairs, I was greeted by these decorations:

You can see my two favorite characters here (Elmo and Curious George) in the above picture. Below, I am in my birthday dress with my best friend Georgi.

Here I am in my traditional birthday dress and Elmo hat.

Here is a picture of me with amma:

Time for a family picture:

I was liked all the special attention for the most part of the day but towards the evening, I started getting cranky. Here are couple of group pictures:

So long for now,

Catch up

Apparently I have been very busy this past year; absorbing a lot of new stuff around me, meeting new people, trying all sorts of new foods, doing all kinds of travel and most important of all, learning lots of new skills. Needless to say, I have lots of catch up to do here in my blog. Oh, by the way, I am one year old now. I celebrated my first birthday on February 15th 2009.
