April fun

Ananya has had a very fun April. She spent one weekend in Cupertino and enjoyed her backyard picnics with her Thatha and Avva. She took a walk in Chinatown with her Dadu and Dadi, where store owners apparently were showering Ananya with free gifts! And in the meantime, she's had fun playing with toys, friends, and, of course, gadgets!

Our little techie

Ananya is clearly her father's daughter...she loves all gadgets, and her favorites are laptops and any working Blackberry. She has developed some pretty amazing skills so far, including turning on/off a computer, pressing the "off" button during phone calls (sorry Mom!), and creating lots of teeth marks on every gadget she can get her hands on!

Crocodiles and Fishy Fun

We became members of the Academy of Sciences, and took Ananya to see the albino alligator and all the fish in the acquarium. Cheryl and Connor joined in on the fun, too!

Cheese, please!

Ananya loved her first taste of cheese

South Bay day

We spent last Saturday visiting Ananya's cousins Aayush and Vunshika, meeting up with Ananya's favorite Connor, and then headed down to Cupertino for a family friend's engagement party. It was quite an action-packed day, but so fun to spend time with family and friends!




Here's a video of Ananya and Connor making the moves on each other :)

Ananya's First Crawl!

Big day in the Goel household...Ananya crawled fully for the first time and we were actually able to catch it all on video. It's not the most elegant of crawls but you can be the judge...Enjoy!

Dadi's lunch

Ananya's Dadi hosted a huge lunch for her close friends, and Ananya and I joined in on the fun! Ananya wore a new lengha, got to spend quality time with her Dadu and Dadi, had so much fun with her aunts and cousins, and enjoyed the warm weather. What a fun way to spend the day!
