Happy 3rd Birthday Atchuthan!!!

Can't believe our baby is 3 years old. He has turned into a fun-loving but sweet (for the most part) toddler. He enjoyed his birthday party yesterday with his friends. His big gift this year was a play kitchen from Viji patti and KK thatha. He plays with it constantly. His other favorite was Mr. Scrambles. We still haven't opened his gifts from the party yet so he may have other favorites in there as well.

The big reveal - his first look at his play kitchen

Party time!

3 months and 3 years!

We had some pictures taken this past weekend. We thought this would be a good time since Shuchi is almost 3 months old and Atchuthan is almost 3 (!). They were both very cooperative. In fact, Shuchi loved the camera and kept smiling at the woman taking the pictures. I think she was fascinated by the flash going off.

Baby smiles

We love baby smiles. This past week Shuchi has been pretty generous with her smiles. She focuses on the face and when she recognizes you, her whole face lights up and she breaks into this huge smile with her tongue sticking out. Melts the heart :-).

Cute Shuchi

I think Shuchi is very cute. Here are a few pictures and videos of her as she's growing up.

Cooing!

All ready for bed.
