Back with my blog ... after a long gap


I am finally back to blogging .. atleast thts what im hoping for ! Its been pretty busy with my beautiful cuddly daughter who is almost 9 months old now ... whaaaat already 9 mon ? yeah time has flown by

Memories of my parents visit still linger fresh iin my head .. Its wierd but i remember each and everyday since my baby was born -- our tiny bundle of joy --- wow I remember holding her in my hand for the first time tears rolling down my cheeks .. with hubby dear by my side .. Its been a journey ... I've learnt so much and matured like never before ... what little mattered so much don't matter anymore .. Motherhood is wonderful and it has taught me so much ...

anyways .. here is a quick summary of all my activities since my last blog (oct 16). It so happened a few days after that blog I was put on bedrest due to preterm labor and guess what .. I delivered within a couple of weeks (thank heavens my parents arrived just in time or hell would have broken loose)

That was just the start of my happiness ... the sleepless nights and the post-partum hormones did their part and eventually said BYE-BYE to me .. yayyyyy ! We enjoyed so much , so many visitors came home, so many gifts for the baby, amma cooked daily for us and it was truly a blessing to have someone take care of you :-)

Appa left after a while .. but amma stayed for the entire 6 mon and I remember coming back early from work to take amma out ..

Eventually work got overwhelmingly tiring and stressful and I decided to quit, to stay home to take care my home, baby and hubby dearest. Man .. this is the best decision in my life till now .. what relief and happiness .. and guess feel energitic and fresh most of the time ... been able to try out new dishes and cook daily :-) , play with my baby and most important of all .. be there for my loved ones always !

Things I have learnt

I have learnt some valuable life lessons over the years and want to compile them so my kids can benefit. - Health is wealth, We realize it most only when we get sick. - Your spouse can be your best friend. -You are your child's hero. -Past is history, Tomorrow is mystery. Today is a gift, that's why its called 'Present'. - Don't worry about what people think of you. - Greet with a warm smile, no matter your mood. - It's all in your mind. -When someone says something, listen and appreciate. - Watch your words. - Work when you want to, also take a break when you have to. (Applies more so to women) - Your baby has one childhood. Relish it with him/her leaving no regrets. - Your parents love you the most, and you love your parents as much as they love you inspite of any past arguments. - Never make someone feel like they are less worthy than you. - Never show off, because everyday is not sunday. Things can ...

Craft project

It is a beautiful and clear Sunday morning as the three of us chit chat in the living room. It was time to jump into action to do what I love the most - doing creative projects. Archu had to decorate a shoe box and make a card for valentine's day as a craft activity. We used gift wrapping paper, scissors, glue, crayons and markers. Within minutes our craft idea was ready.. A couple of pictures for you. What surprised me.. Archu looked a me and said 'thank you amma' with a beautiful smile, and then gave me the happy hug !

What's on my mind now

How hard can job hunt be ? Two simple words, but a long process behind it. As on July 2010, the unemployment rate in USA stands at 9.5%, including 14.6 Million unemployed persons. ( source - US Census Bureau) Where are the jobs ? Are unpaid internships even worth the time and effort ? Especially in Houston - spending all that money on filling your gas tank, and daycare, in pursuing an unpaid internship while in school ? I don't know ! Hi-Tech thieves selling children's social security numbers long before the little one's even have a bank account ! How horrific ..
