Here starts the party!!
Its been a while we are back in Sydney and finally got my hands on writing this blog. Being a mum to a Toddler isn't that easy as it looks. But that's a story for some other times
About our two week trip to Brisbane, we had an amazing time with the family like always and have so much to pen down its not funny. It was even more special this time with Neelima di (Kalyan's sister) visiting us from India.
Brisbane was too exciting with two major milestone birthday parties. Mahi's "BIG ONE" and Sai's (our gorgeous niece)"Sweet 16". Both were so different and calling out for a lot of thought. Sai (Sweet 16) was on a school trip to Paris and was coming back on the day of her birthday therefore,we decided to create a mini "PARIS" as her party theme so that she misses it a little less. For the tiny tott I had to do a " Garden fairy" theme which has been my fave from a long time now. We had been preparing for the last three months though but it was time to put it all together.
So as soon as we landed Brisbane a few days prior to the D day we got to work. It took us good three days to put up all the decorations and that time was full of laughter, arguments (mostly me & Kalyan) and absolute craziness.
It was after three years that we had Kalyan and all his sisters together so we had to get some photos and yes these kids were hard to manage to get a decent click.
Getting there!!
and CLICK!!
Before we knew it was the day our niece was coming back from Paris and we were so excited as she had no clue what her party theme was.
We all got ready at 2 am to receive her and so did little mahi. We took Mahi along and tried to let her sleep as much, but I guess she could sense the excitement and got into the mood all fresh and active.
All of us!!
Thats's my baby at 3am.
Waiting eagerly for her big sis :)
No seriously!! where are you my hand hurts holding this thing now.
Yippeee!! here she come :)
With a few tears shed and lots of smiles we took her home. When we reached we blindfolded for her to open her eyes to a mini Paris and she went "OMG" "OMG"...................Her reaction was priceless and we were happy about all efforts put to good use.
We wanted to just stay up and chat endlessly but we had to get our beauty sleep for the next BIG day!!

1st Birthday wishes from mum
Dear Mahi,
Watching you sleep right next to me takes me back to the day we got you home. A whole year passed by in literally a blink of an eye and as I sit down to relive this past year I guarantee a few tears to shed. Before you came into our life I had no idea of how much love I carried in my heart. You have been such a blessing and now I cannot even think of a life without you in it.
I clearly remember that night when I found out I was pregnant. I started with a shout out to dad followed by a gush of soo many emotions at the same time. Though you are a very well planned baby but I guess I was hoping to have more days to go through the maternity books before you come to live in the luxury resort for nine months, but you gave me no time and that made mommy a little nervous. I woke up to a different morning and started watching my steps from that day on.
My pregnancy, now that I think of it was pretty crazy with the worst afternoon and evening sickness,but the timings adjusted well to my working hours so all good. Going in for our first ultra sound I was both excited and nervous just hoping that everything is ok and you were healthy. You checked out perfect and we found that we would be adding a beautiful little girl to our family.
We had left all the shopping and your baby corner setting to the time when all the four grandparents arrive and it was a good thing to do because they had soo much fun doing all that for you. Then came the morning of 5thoct and my water broke at 8am.We headed to the hospital and were sent back saying that I need to still wait. Finally at 9 Pm I was hospitalized and next day at 3.45pm I held you in my arms. Welcoming you into our family was the best day of my life.
You have brought so much joy in our lives. Since day one you have been so calm and easy going. You are the happiest little girl I have ever met. Your smile and hugs brighten my day. Watching you grow and achieve each milestone have been soo much fun. I have loved to see your personality come to life and enjoy every little new thing that you do to amuse me. You have a contagious smile and you are spreading it lavishly.
I am beyond thankful to be your mommy and can't thank God enough for blessing us with all the joy in the form of you.
Happy 1st Birthday my sweet lill girl
Lots of love,
Mommy & Daddy

Cake Smash!!
Mahi gets to have the taste of her first cake and it is a moment to be captured in the perfect sense of its Glory. She did not like the idea of getting messy and enjoyed the water splash of her bath after the cake smash more than the event itself. Some pictures from the shoot
