Baking cookies

With all 4 grandparents over, Ananya decided we should bake chocolate
chip cookies tonight. Yum!!

Ananya's first field trip

Big day today - Ananya's first school trip to see a play "The elves
and the shoemaker"....Pooneet and I had to join her on this big day,
which is also her first time on a school bus!!

Breakfast for dinner

After a loooooong and fun day in SF, the girls are winding down with a
cartoon and a breakfast for dinner picnic!

Thanksgiving weekend

Thanksgiving this year has been an awesome nonstop celebration of
family and friends. Deepa, Erich, and their super cute kiddos Sonia
and Neal visited us....Ananya and Sonia became the best of friends and
slept together each night!

Ananya's "Happy Diwali" song

Ananya, like her mom, loves to turn everything into song...so here she is, after our Diwali celebration (which included a puja/aarti, wearing a new lengha, lighting sparklers in our backyard, reading a Diwali book) singing her version of a Diwali song. Enjoy!

Happy Diwali

Here is our first set of Diwali pictures from our celebration tonight.
It is near impossible to get a picture of Amisha standing or sitting
still!!

Antics

In the middle of taking pictures, amisha hit Ananya and also pulled
her hair. Lovely.
