You both always loved tickets and little games, why not. When we went to one such event and entered for the race, I was hoping one of you would win…and Megha did! And then went to a local restaurant to enjoy the free milkshake, pie and ice cream. What a fun afternoon.
When I knew I was pregnant, it felt so surreal. It still feels the same. This private blog is going to be a journey we (hubby and I) would be taking through my term as well as when our baby is here. This will also be a good medium for our babies Grand Parents, Attai's and Maama's, Aunties and Uncles and all our Cousins to know our baby better.

June 10th 2022
A date to be remembered! These are no ordinary KD, this day was the very first time Tanush made his own lunch. All on his own, ALL of it, including adding right amount of water, setting the microwave, taking out the hot bowl carefully, adding the cheese :)
Way to go Tanush. I will make sure you know how to cook for yourself and your loved ones :)

Moisturizer
I don’t recall writing this down in the blog but at times, when we have time, I make moisturizer at home using shea butter, jojoba oil, essential oils and beeswax.
Megha asked if we could make moisturizer at home over the weekend and perhaps glam it up a little bit by adding food coloring (as mine are plain white/ cream colored).
Cracked me up! Megha darling I should have let you do it…you know for kicks and giggles and see your face after you apply the food-colored-moisturizer :)
You are lucky I love you to the moon and back, I reminded you the tint of food coloring :)

Your choice of words
Tanush says, “holiday sauce” for, “Hollandaise sauce” :) He loves Eggs Benedict.
Megha accidentally said, “antibiotics” for “antibodies which gave us all chuckles :)

Midnight
Yes, that’s the name Megha chose for her very first Betta Fish :); you wanted an aquarium and daddy got you one. Niw, don’t ask all the arguments you both had, him for asking you to do research and you not doing it fully :)

Saturday Breakfast
A longtime ago, long before I was even married, I read this book where there was a child who didn’t have enough to eat. Some rare evening’s when he returns home from school, he would smell the roasting potatoes his mom was making for dinner and he thinks to himself, this has to be the best and most comforting aroma in the whole wide world.
Years later, he became a World Renowned chef (Gordon Ramsey) and in his memoir, he wrote that the smell of his moms roasted potatoes from back on that day still remains his most comforting smell (for the mind and belly) in the whole wide world.
Something about that particular incident stuck with me. Years later, I had you both and subconsciously, I still wake up early to have the breakfast ready or cooking. Every single day. While you may both think it’s no big deal, but to me, giving you that sense of comfort (whether you realize this or not) is a big deal. I myself always had this privilege when growing up.
Today, March 11th 2022, we are having harsh brown, bacon and waffles for breakfast.
