It's amazing that another Christmas is here. When you have kids, everything runs in fast-forward. They grow up in front of your eyes and you wonder where time went. It certainly puts into perspective what our parents think about time spent raising us. After all, we were all little kids once!
Here are some pictures - the Christmas card, and Armaan's 18 month pictures.
I love this picture of Priya and Armaan! Such a cute brother and sister pose!
Yup - his middle is as round as ever!
True to my nature of wanting to get things done expeditiously (has anyone seen the movie "Oscar"?), I ordered the appliances on Friday, and they were here on Monday. Thanks to the help of two strong friends, we were able to get the old appliances out, and the new appliances in. I spent about five hours in installation. Most the of time was spent in taking out the old copper piping and rubber hose from the old dishwasher, and putting in new lines. Plumbing has never been my strong suit. At one point there was water shooting out of the copper piping because I turned the shut-off valve upstream of where the T joint for the dishwasher was. So the sink had no hot water, but hello.. lots of hot water in the dishwasher. It was 30 seconds of pure terror as I muscled the connection back in. Onward with the install.. Anyway, there were quite a few things I learned about both water, and gas plumbing, and in the end - it's not really difficult to do once you know what you're doing, have the right tools, and the right couplings and fastenings.
Here's the finished product...
