In Anticipation

I just realized that we are waiting in anticipation of several things. We are still waiting for Priya's bed rails to get here. Once the bed is done, she will get new bedding. We are waiting for her birthday party, and the fun things that will bring. Shortly after that is our vacation. Right around that time is when the promised economic stimulus check from the IRS is expected to arrive.

[Side note: If the intent of the money being sent by the Federal government is to provide a stimulus to the economy by spending it, is it wrong to put it into a savings account?]

Ok.. back to expectations... We are up to.. I think June. Ok.. Then in a month will be Armaan's first birthday. Party time again. I can't think past July now, but it's weird that the first half of the year is mapped out already!

I recently learned that a few German colleagues of mine are readers of this blog. So I wanted to take the opportunity of saying hi! Sorry I don't talk about work much here - I'm not sure how interesting machine automation would be to the general reader!

This fella still doesn't like to crawl...

...but I don't think he minds it one bit!

There's a pattern to Priya's posing

Find it yet?

the lighting is nice on those first pictures of armaan! well done. :)

Also, is Priya's posing quire that her chin is up or that she doesn't want to look at the camera?

Hey... be patient, chubby kids take a little longer to crawl. They have to be MUCH stronger!

Dominique was SO excited to get the invitation to Priya's party! She has been carrying it around quite a bit since we got it, so I had to quick copy the info into my planner before the invite was lost!
I just love Armaan's sweet little smile! He will crawl in his own sweet time... they are all so different! Israel was my earliest crawler, but latest walker, so go figure!

hey bipin, i'm in south africa on our 3 week vacation - but good to "read" you from here!

yes, you're supposed to spend the money, not save it :) ... and to take it a step further, the intent is that you spend it on american produced stuff - no point in buying Toshiba, since the money just as quickly leaves the economy ... personally, i'm buying an elevator for our building ... american made :)

great pics!
