It's funny how Ananya is a fairly clean, neat person but when it comes to eating pasta, it inevitably gets all over her face! Here are some funny photos of her eating her pasta and wearing a really cute personalized headband that her Kittu Thatha and Shoba Avva recently gave her!

SF Visit
We drove up to San Francisco a few weekends ago so that Ananya could spend some time playing with her beloved Ancha. They had so much fun together and I keep telling people how Ananya's reunion with her was like the famous YouTube video that shows the lion reuniting with his caretakers after 5 years...amazing! The love, the connection - it was instant, Ananya was completely and instantly comfortable, and watching the two of them talk in Tibetan and play together was really special for us all.
We then headed to lunch with Sid, Sarah, and Baby Avani who has grown so much and is totally adorable! Combined with amazing 70 degree weather, we had a wonderful day in SF and can't wait to go back!
Here are a few photos from our day:

Babymoon #2
During my last pregnancy, Pooneet and I and some of our closest friends went on a babymoon getaway to the island of Nevis in the British West Indies. For this babymoon, I couldn't stand to be too far from Ananya, so Pooneet and I decided to do a weekend getaway to Napa.
Our goals were to sleep a lot, eat fabulously, and visit some wineries. We totally accomplished all of these goals - only ate at Michelin-starred restaurants, I got a ton of blissful sleep (it's amazing how sleeping without a baby monitor feels so good!), and we were able to visit multiple wineries (Pooneet loved wine-tasting, I got to drink water...fun). We also took a tour of a castle, witnessed a proposal (she said yes), and saw Thomas Keller! Even the smallest member of our family had a super-fun weekend! Ananya stayed in Cupertino with my parents and had a blast visiting her cousins, playing with Kittu Thatha who was in town, and turning the house upside down!
Fantastic, super-relaxing weekend away...it'll be a looooong time before we can do that again, so it was definitely needed and appreciated!
