It's Good To Be Home

We got home from Texas late Monday night and after nine days away it felt really good to sleep in our own beds! Unfortunately Jai and I brought some flu bug back with us so the first few days back were a little rough. Luckily Isha managed not to catch it. So I am sorry it took so long to post the Texas pictures on the blog, but we are just now starting to get back into our routine. Poor Isha was so sleep deprived that she spent the first few days home just napping and catching up! Here is Isha just relaxing and snacking on her Cheerios! I know...do something with that kids hair!!!

Birthday Party #2

Jai's family surprised Isha with a birthday party complete with her own smash cake. I just have to take a minute to rant about the cake. Isha's smash cake was Amaretto and the big cake was half German chocolate and half white cake with strawberry mousse filling. YUM! Isha with her Auntie and her Tia!

Two birthday parties. How lucky can one little girl get? We even had Elmo plates and napkins! YUMMY! Actually, Isha wasn't really into eating the cake, which was fine with us because that just meant more cake for us! We had the party on Sunday afternoon and I think she was still overwhelmed by all of the people. But by the end of the week she was comfortable with being passed around and loved on by everyone. Isha loves Elmo, so it was the perfect theme for her party. Nothing like trying to get red icing off of a baby.

Isha made out like a bandit. Her Uncle Bobby, Tia Viviann and Stephen got her loads of adorable clothes and an even cuter swimming suit. You will start seeing them as the weather warms up here. Her Auntie Bhawna and Uncle Tom got her a big doll and her Grandma and Grandpa Oberoi got her three beautiful outfits from India complete with bracelets and a gold necklace. Her next set of pictures are going to be taken in some of the outfits from India. I can't wait.

This is one spoiled kid.

Spring Break In Texas

We went to Texas to visit with Jai's family. Of course we spent the first few hours trying to child proof the house. Isha loved getting into everything before we had a chance to move it out of her reach.

We didn't have any room in the suitcases to bring toys with us so we made a quick trip to Wal-Mart to get Isha a few things to play with. She had a blast smacking the golf balls around with her clubs. She also had fun smacking us around. Nothing better than a big bouncy ball. On St. Patrick's day we spent the day with Jai's sister and brother-in-law in Fredericksburg. It is an amazing old German town that is full of fun shops and wineries. We had a great German lunch and then we checked out some of the shops and even did a little wine tasting! We also spent a day at the outlet mall and Isha had a good time riding all of the little rides. We started out with Pumba, but when we saw the bull we knew we had to let her ride it! As they say: When it Texas. . .

Isha loved riding this thing. She was jumping up and down and hollering like a crazy woman.

One night Jai's parents watched the grand kids and we went out with his brother and sister-in-law and had a great time down on 6th street in downtown Austin.

We spent Easter weekend in Dallas with Jai's sister, but unfortunately the camera was in the stroller so we don't have any pictures to share. Isha managed to score 3 Easter baskets so she had plenty to keep her busy. When she wasn't playing with her Easter eggs she was looking under the bed for the kitty. It was so cute, she would squat down to look under the bed and then point at the cat. I don't think the kitty was very impressed with Isha, but luckily they managed to keep their distance.

We had a great time visiting with everybody and we can't wait to go back!
