28th Dec, 2007 - In case I have not yet mentioned it in my blog, we are moving to Dallas next year. I can grow up and be a cowboy there. My parents decided to start packing some of the things early on so that it will be easier later when the time comes to move.
There are plenty of boxes and open cupboards around the house and so I am having a good time pulling things out of the cupboards.
I wonder whats in store for me in Dallas or should I say "What do I have in store for Dallas?"

Navagraha Pooja at the Malibu Hindu Temple
27th Dec 2007 - My parents decided to do a Navagraha Shanti Pooja today at the Hindu Temple in Malibu. We started off early to the temple with lots of flowers, fruits and sweets. We got to the temple at around 9:30 in the morning and it was quite cold up in the hills. My parents started the pooja while my Bapamma took care of me (boy did I give her a hard-time). I wanted to run around and also be a part of the pooja. I wanted to sprinkle the teerth, pour the ghee in the havan, throw the rice. There were two Bhat Maams, Prasad Bhatji and Shashtri Bhatji. They were very nice. They gave me a Hershey's kisses and a Ferrero Rocher chocolate.
After we finished the pooja, we visited the rest of the gods in the temple and then went home. It was a nice day for me. I got to run around the temple.

Baby you can drive my car
|
26th Dec, 2007 - One of my favorite things to do these days is to pretend to drive my father's car. Whenever I go to the garage, I sit in the car and pretend like I am driving the car. I prented to start the car, change the gears and then turn the wheel like there is no tomorrow. I cannot wait to grow up and drive my own car someday. I even say "Ka" "Ka" now.
You can see the excitement on my face from the pictures.

Trip to the Carlsbad Premium Outlet
|
24th Dec, 2007 - On our way back from San Diego, we decided to stop at the Carlsbad Premium Outlet. My parents and grandmother wanted to do a little shopping. The outlet mall has the typical outlet stores like Gap, Tommy Hilfiger, Bose, Calvin Klein, Osh Kosh, Polo Ralph Lauren etc. We stopped at some of the stores and bought a few things. I had a lot of fun running in and out of the stores. There were many water fountains in the mall and I had fun trying to play with the water.
I even saw Santa at one of the shops. He must have long day today as he has to deliver all those gifts tonight. I told Santa that I have been very nice.

My First Pictures
|
24th Dec, 2007 - On our trip to San Diego, I took a fancy to my father's camera. I saw him clicking pictures all day long and I said to myself...."Let me give it a try". Once we reached our hotel room, I insisted on taking the camera from my parents. I leant to turn it on and then there was a series of flashes and then my first pictures were born.
Since then I have managed to take a few more pictures. Click the read more link below to see them.

Another Trip to Sea World San Diego
|
23rd Dec, 2007 - The loooongg weekend is here and we went to San Diego for a couple of days. My grandmother has not gone to Sea World before and so we decided to go the Sea World today. It was a very nice day in San Diego and I had a lot of fun running around the park. I saw Beluga Whales, Polar Bears, Penguins, Dolphins and Killer Whales. I went to hold a big walrus's hand through the glass. I also met Shamu the Killer Whale. He is no nice, wonder why they call him a killer whale. The weather was really nice and I had a great time at the park.
This will be my last trip to the park as we are leaving LA next month.

Fun in the Balcony
|
10th Dec, 2007 - Now that I have grown older, I have also grown taller and can open doors. My latest hobby is to open the balcony door and play in the sun. I have a great time in the balcony. I open and close the door and peep inside from the glass windows. Its cold right now and so my parents don't let me go out early in the morning but after 10, its very nice. Now since my Bapamma is there, she and I sometimes sit in the balcony on a blanket and play with me toys.

Lets Recycle
|
10th Dec, 2007 - With the amount of waste we all produce these days, its a good idea to recycle. My parents try and recycle as much as they can. They collect all the plastic cans and then throw them in the recycle bin. Seeing all those plastic cans gets me very excited and I play with them. Today I was trying to hold 5 cans and take them down to the garage to recycle. My parents had a great laugh at my expense.
Anyway, please recycle as I will be inheriting the environment when I grow up.

Touchdown
|
9th Dec, 2007 - Sunday is Football day at our house. My father loves to watch the Football games on Sunday and I also sit and watch the games with him. I noticed that he says the word "touchdown" a lot and then throws his hands in the air and I also started doing that now. I run around the house saying "teh-dow" and get all excited.
Are you ready for some football?

Troubling Bapamma
|
7th Dec, 2007- My father's mother (Bapamma) is visiting us from India and I have found that I can have my way with her. We kids realize that our grandparents are soft and we take full advantage of it.
Every time she tries to go up to the bedroom, I run after her and ask me to take her up. Every time she eats lunch or dinner, I climb on the table and put my hand in her plate and pour her glass of water. I go into her room and try and pull everything out of the cupboard. I have already destroyed a pair of her glasses.
Hope she does not leave because of me.

Trip to the Griffith Observatory
 |
Dec 1st, 2007 - My parents and my grandmother took me to the Griffith Observatory in the Hollywood Hills. My parents had never been there since they arrived in LA as it was closed for construction for so long. We drove to the observatory and got there early and were lucky to find a good parking spot. Once I got there, my father let me out and I had a great time running around the park. My parents and grandma took a tour of the park while I ran around. I also saw a sun-dial for the first time. I made friends with one of the ground-staff person. I gave him my long-drawn sweet "Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaai". The location is great, you can see most of Los Angeles from here. You can see the Hollywood sign up-close. |
After we finished seeing the view and taking pictures, we went for lunch to my mother's favorite restaurants, Al-Wazir Chicken. I did not let them have lunch and we had to pack the food and take it home.

You're Welcome
|
4th Dec, 2007 - I should be talking a little more for my age, but hey at least I am writing a blog. My parents were surprised to when I said "Wey-come" when they said "Thank you" to me. They do not use the word around me and were surprised that I knew the word. Its probably something that I saw on the television. |
