How can you not love the man who sends this sms when you have just found out you are pregnant and wondering what should you call the baby in-utero?
"We will call her Bumpelina 3D because A) She better be a she and B) she announced herself only in 3rd month and C) all sequels are now 3D! ;)
or when traveling dreams about cleaning his kid's snotty nose and misses him even more!
Our kids are very lucky to have an unbashedly sentimental Papa like you! :)
NB: For folks who joined the pahty late Cub's in-utero name was Bumpy! :)
And here are Bub's naamkaran pics. We didnt really go the whole traditional hog. It was mainly a getogether with the family here. WE did bits and pieces of Maharashtrian barase and tied it up with beer and biryani! :p
The photos arent exactly in order. But i am too impatient to set them in exact order! Please to bear with the lazy mother of two! ;)
Almost midnight the previous evening we attempted some last min decoration! :) The Aaji and grandson were doing ghoda ghoda on the beanbag! :D
The welcome note by the father of the kids! Love it! :)
Proud grandparents and bada bhaiyya with the Bub before the pahty started!
Cub looking dapper wearing kurta gifted by Mansi bua! :)
Ruhi bua whispering the name in Bub's ear!
Bub in the decorated cradle!
The "aukshan" or arati. This one by my Mum.
Aukshan by Meenoo Mausi - the local daadi! :)
By Ruhi Bua! :)
since I had no salwar kameez i could fit into, i stuck to my maternity jeans and silk stole! :D
Cub eating the cake he had just cut! No need to be fed n all! :p
Cake for Cub! :)
And for Bub! You got the name by now i guess! :D
L'il bub tired of all the attention! :)
