i love skype

sooo much fun. just got off the video phone thingy with grandma and grandpa. not yahoo, not google, not youtube, not email, not IM . . . but me . . . i am the driving force that finally got grandma to login to the internet. ain't that special?!? not only is she on the information highway, she's now an advanced user. she can skype me with video and voice, she can view and comment on my blog . . . guess us babies are the real way to bridge the technical divide, eh?

as for the picture, well, it has nothing to do with skype, but it's one of the latest ones :)

3 months old!

happy birthday to me

i poo and i pee

my birthday's today

but i'm small like a pea

i'm looking hip in my pink and brown ensemble

yes it's true . . . all you people that think the in colors don't change year to year or season to season . . . you're wrong. but luckily for y'all, i'm here to show you the way for the season's trends. this summer season the slightly muted pink color is all the rage. because this is late afternoon wear, i have to add a little bit of flair (that's the brown color). paired together you have my take on the modern, hip, summer baby attire. ok, i have to admit, long sleeves and booties is not your normal summer attire, but you see, we still have this cold thing in our house. thus, even your fashion correspondent (that's me) can't always get it right. that's it for today!

my very first dress

dad's a little weird . . . ok, dad's really weird. but he's totally obsessed with dresses. he's always trying to get mom to trade her sweats for a dress (to no avail i might add). though dad says he'd now settle for sweats with no holes in them . . . but that's an entirely different story. anyways, i digress. so check me out . . . it's my first dress from auntie arpita. yes, i have to admit that a summer dress with a long sleeve shirt underneath is not exactly how the fashionistas envisioned it. yes, this was a day when it was almost 100 degrees out . . . so don't ask me why i have both mittens and a long sleeve shirt on. just because mom is always cold, i have to suffer be having all of these extra layers. you would think that when they picked me up and i'm dripping in sweat that that would be a little hint that i might be . . . HOT! and not just hot like the guys like it, but hot like in i'm really stinky and sweaty. oh sorry, i might be getting a little carried away. in any case, you might also notice my little trumpets from auntie shruti. yes, these are now my signature trumpets since i actually have many different colors to match my various outfits. ok, that's it for today.

my friend steeler

ok, you see, i have this bud . . . his name is steeler! yes, that's steeler as in the pittsburgh football (that's american football for all you dang euros) team. you say . . . what kind of name is that?!? well, you see his dad is just a tad fanatical (with a capital F-A-N) about his football team and yes, his middle name is steeler. honestly, i can't even remember his first name because who would want to call him anything else?!? in any case, check out this dude . . . he's got sooooooooo much hair. i think he's like only 1 month older than me . . . doesn't he know that us gals are supposed to have all the hair. i really could use some you know. i'm not thinking this sinead o'connor thing is going to go very well for me! but i figured out why he has so much hair . . . he sleeps through the entire night! i mean who would really want to sleep through the night? when you're sleeping you don't get to play with your mobile, you don't get to hang out with mom and dad, you don't get fed, you don't get to play with the alphabet frog . . . i mean, all you do when you sleep is just sit there. it's totally over-rated which is why i refuse to sleep any more than 3-4 hours at a time. in fact, i really only hit 4 hours once a day. it's really just cause i love mom and dad and want to see them more . . . not of course that i'm saying that steeler doesn't love his mom (his mom christina is pictured here) or dad, tran. ok anyways, i mentioned steeler before in my previous friends post, but it wasn't until today that we had a pic to share!

just pix

ok, people don't seem to be so enamored with my writing (hmmmmph) and they say they just want more pictures . . . so here's some more pix. i think i'm pretty cute in these pix if i do say so myself!

cool schwag

hi everyone, i know it's been awhile since my last post. i really can't wait to meet all of you. in fact, dad says i'm even more fun now since i actually laugh and smile at you (especially if you do really ridiculous things like dad). i'm finally tipping the scale at over 10 pounds (i still can't believe i have friends that were born at the weight i am now . . . poor moms!). check out some of my latest pics . . . i especially like my 2 cool hand-knitted blankets from the farnhams and aunties nancy and lynne.
