It's Getting Hot in Here

The past two months have been beautiful and the weather has been been awesome. This is the first week it's going to be consistently in the 100s. Today the high is 108, so we need to get our outdoor activities done early in the day. Ishan and I started the day with a walk to Starbucks and then he played on our patio for a while. 

Pimp My Yard

Our yard is done and everyone is so excited, including Ishan. We have had random people stop by to take pictures!

The color of the grass is that of the pic of the back yard. The front looks different in the pic because of the light. 

Ishan Siri

My awesome Mother's Day gift arrived on Friday. I wasn't sure what I thought about the Apple Watch at first, but after watching some videos and playing around with it, I have to say it's pretty cool. Ishan has enjoyed looking at it and watching me test everything out. I think he's gotten the hang of it, because last night I heard him say "Hey, Siri, play Little Bunny Foo Foo!" 

Dog Gone It

Javin sent Ishan a card for his 2nd birthday and Ishan still has it. It plays "Who Let the Dogs Out". Even though the cover is ripped in half, the song still plays. I can't say that I'm a huge fan of the song, especially when played over and over, but I love that Javin drew in it and I'm sure I'll be hanging on to it. 

Camas or Bust

I told Ishan we were going to visit Javin and he was very excited. He asked if we could go now and when I said the trip wasn't for a while, he said "Why won't you let me see Javin?" So, I explained how our plane tickets are for another day and that we'll have to wait to go on the trip. So, he asked if we could make a calendar like the one we did for his birthday. Lastly he said "Can we have tacos?" I said "Today?" He said "No, can we have tacos when we visit Javin." I am sure  Niravmama will be more than happy to accommodate that request. He also said "Mommy, can you bring letters and pipe cleaners for me and Javin to play with?" Like Ishan, I am also counting down....

Sunday Funday

After a great brunch with Amma, Ishan and I settled in for an afternoon showing of Ishan's new favorite movie,Toy Story. There's nothing better than Mother's Day cuddles. 

Sounds About Right

Don't Squeeze the Charmin

We were talking about Mother's Day and Ishan told me that he knew what he wanted to give me....toilet paper. He then said he wanted to give some to his grandparents too.  What a thoughtful kid. Ishan took his first selfie this morning using the timer on my phone. Not bad...

Supper Time

Ishan requested one of his favorite meals for dinner tonight, White Bean and Kale Ravioli with Ham and Asparagus. He then  told me that we need to have tacos tomorrow since it's Taco Tuesday. I thought maybe he heard about it at school, but, no, apparently his source is The Lego Movie. "Everything is Awesome!" It might be time to bring veggie tacos to The Suri House.

 

Change of Face

My usually smiley kid wasn't in the mood to get his picture taken. It might have been the fact that by 8 am, we had walked to Whole Foods, Starbucks and had played at home. His hair was getting long, so I thought it was time to get it cut short as summer is quickly approaching. I'm sure Niravmama will approve. 

What's Up, Doc?

Ishan had his four year check up today. Hard to believe my five and a half pound baby is a forty pound four year old. Of course, he was all smiles during the appointment...well, until the shots.
