Happy 7 months!

Vir, you are 7 months already!! I'm late in publishing this post as we were out traveling and this time without our computers.

You celebrated your 7 month birthday in San Francisco! Sumit Mamu and Aman Mami joined for a few days too, and you met them for the first time.

For the rest of us, it was a re-union to remember, like any other that we have had before. Kabir has been missing Mamu and wants him back! :)

You had a bit of a stranger anxiety initially but next day, you were friends!

And here's a group selfie! :)

We did our best to keep up with your schedule while traveling. We didn't have a big agenda, so our days were not over busy while we still did things that Kabir enjoyed, like we went to the zoo, exploratorium, aquarium, the coit tower, etc. Below is us at the exploratorium! :)

While Sumit Mamu and Aman Mami were there, grown ups indulged in a day trip to the Napa Valley!

It was interesting living in the city. There was so much to do at walking distance. The tough part was carrying the stollers up and down the steps and walking up the inclines. We stayed at two houses and both were on hill tops, so we got good exercise! :)

There were times when you were in the stroller and other times, I would just put you in the carrier and you were happy! You napped well and it was easier to get around.

You have been pushing a lot and trying to crawl, i think it is coming soon!! :)

You are the sweetest baby i know, always happy and smiling!

There's something about Kabir that makes you smile every time he's around! Anything he does, makes you laugh. I Love it! It's super cute! :)

You graduated from your Bumbo chair and have now been sitting in the high chair for meals

and some playtime!

For the trip, we carried the portable high chair and it worked great for you. That's you and K waiting for breakfast! :)

Soon Daddy joined too!! :)

Some breakfast conversation with Dad.

You can hold your sippy cup and take it to your mouth to drink water!

 And have been sitting with just the back support for a longer time!

Earlier in the month, it was father's day and Daddy and Dadu celebrated together with you boys!

While all the grandparents were here, we had Shauna from photography Du Jour, come and take some family photos. These were taken when you were 5 months but I received them recently. 

Each month brings out something new, something more exciting but I miss the months that have gone past. I miss the first days and the first months. I wish I could pause the time and keep you as a baby for a little bit longer! :)

I love you sweetie, we all do!

Mama

Happy 4 months!

 Vir, it's unbelievable that today you have completed 4 months. Time is sure running fast and you are growing at an unimaginable rate.

You are starting to grab things now; be it your books, toys or our fingers.

You can also hold your bottle.

You have started to put your thumb in your mouth too.

You can now stand when we hold you. You have been pushing a lot and have been rolling to your side!

Dad put you in the high chair yesterday and you could actually sit for a little bit without falling!

All this is great progress!

We went for your 4 month check-up today and while everything looked good, your weight is on a much lower side of the percentile. I hope it picks up in the next couple of months.

This past month, you took your first long drive. It was to Allentown to visit Ammi's!

It was a great trip and you did great during the drive. We were a bit unsure on how it was going to go. What a blessing it is to get all that love! We are all very lucky! 

You also made your first trip to the Air and Space Museum and the Zoo; this was over K's birthday weekend.

And that's us celebrating K's 3rd birthday!

He's a big boy now who LOVES to play with you, hold you, kiss you and just be around you! :)

Kabir even tried to take a bath in the sink, just like you do! It was hilarious! :)

At night, you have been sleeping one good stretch of about 5 hours and then waking up every 2-3 hours. Here are a few of your right out of bed shots! :)

Another great month, Vir! You are surely getting cuter and we all love you very much! :)

O, you have been talking in baby language and recently sometimes what you say sounds like Mama! I love it!! :)

Happy Birthday, Sweetie and lots of love always!

Mama
