Happy Spa Date...! Yay!!!!

So if someone had told me when Ami came into my life that she'll have her first Spa Date at 3 & a half, I'd have found that "you-are-joking-right?-funny..!" But today happened to be her first Spa date and boy did she have fun...? :)

This is what happened... We went to her friend Dia's house for a Spa Playdate and the five girls (along with two sweet little boys) had a ball of a time. They really did have a complete deal...Bubble-dipped-Pedicures... Face packs... Nail Polishes... :) It was just sooo much fun! 

Ofcourse splashing water was sooo much fun too! ;)

Not very happy about the face pack, ehh?

We made cupcakes for all her friends with "Happy Spa Day" tags on them... And needless to say, it really did turn out to be a 'Happy' Spa Day! :)

Chitiyaan Kailaiyaan Ve!

A few months back (post our Binsar trip) Ami got hooked on to 'Abhi toh party shuru huiye hai' and insisted on playing that song all the time in the car, so she could dance on it... And now it is 'Chitiyaan Kalaiyaan ve'! So why is this more special? Coz she sings lyrics with it... She knows lots of words of the song and sings it when she feels she's not being observed! Its sooo cute and funny :) I love it!!! Her favorite line from the song? "Mann jaawe Shopping karade...!" Such a girl thing no? :)

Secret Santa, XMas Party & Masti

XMas was so much fun this year... After so many years I played Secret Santa with friends building up the excitement from the week before XMas! Had a lot of fun deciding creative gifts and sending stuff to one another :) And kids had loads of fun too...

Ami's XMas started quite early. By end of Nov we had decorated the tree... The whole month of Dec all play dates had activities related to Xmas- and there were quite a few... Colouring, crafts, food, masti and get-togethers all had a festive feel. At the XMas party all kids got same gifts and Ami had a good time opening so many gifts. 

We bought her a kitchen set and Santa gave her gems, loads of stationary and chocolates in her stockings. She also got a Furby from Alakh Mama & Vidhi Mami. It was a time for lots of gifts and the month just flew with so much fun... :)

Visit to Gurudwara!

Last week was Guru Purab & La Petite introduced Ami to Guru Nanak Ji. And this week promptly they were taken to visit a Gurudwara or as my baby said "Guru Nanak Ji's house!" ;)

She was happy to go- dressed up in school uniform (which is mandatory only during such occassions) and came back home & told me all excitedly "how she had gone to Guru Nanak Ji's house & got Prashaad (I'm pressuming in langar) & had lots of Kishmish there (This I'm unclear about)." ;) I'm happy that my child is being exposed to so much of the world & is growing up with knowledge of what happens in the rest of the world too. 

Jo bole so nihaal... Sasriyakaal! :)

Chal mere ghode tik tik tik...

So Ami decided to go horsie on papa. And it was loads of laughter and fun all around... Chal mere ghode tik tik tik...! ;)

Oh No! It has started... ;)

So from the time Ami's come into our life, I have always heard my friends and cousins who are mothers of girls complaining "I don't get to choose what she wears. She refuses to wear anything but what she chooses..." I have a very very head strong daughter who generally has no qualms letting us know how she feels... So naturally I have been dreading this stage of hers to come... But oh-so-suddenly it was upon us yesterday! 

She calmly walked up to her cupboard, opened it, chose what she wanted, lay it on the bed, closed the cupboard and announced "Mumma, Ami ko yeh pehen na hai!" As parents we were both aghast and mighty surprised. We knew this moment would come but we weren't ready for it yet... And look at the T-Shirt she chose to innaugarate this stage "50% Ma... 50% Pa... 100% ME!" Hellooooo... I couldn't have said it better. Sigh! :)

Potty training... The things you experience! ;)

No this is not another gory post on how easy or difficult it was to potty train my baby... It is to share the funny side of it! So let me start by saying- my baby is finally potty trained (at least I hope she is now :)). Its been a constant learning for last 3 weeks and now she only wears Diaper while sleeping! :)

The side effect of this being now when we are out or travelling long distance, and want her to urinate in her diaper, she refuses to do it. The outcome of that being...

   

...yes we had to stop the car on Yamuna Expressway, remove madam's pottyseat, so she could do it! :P It is definitely one of life's funny experiences... A typical 'my bunny's funny' moment! :)
