Baby Brain Weekly Memoir: 16th January 2015

Evening All!!
Hope you’re all well!
This week has been such a crazy busy week and if I hadn’t jotted things down I probably would have forgotten what we’ve been up to!
We’ve been mainly preparing for Arjun’s first Lohri party (a separate post to follow on what this is and what we did!) which is taking place tomorrow. I’m so excited to host our first party since he’s arrived! Organising parties and get togethers is my forte and I’ve really missed doing it. I didn’t quite realise how challenging it would be with a baby! But I think we’ll be ok nevertheless! (I hope so anyway!!).
I’m currently sitting on the sofa with my feet up eating a cinnamon roll (I swear I’ve already burnt it off with the amount of running around I’ve done today!) whilst Arjun snoozes.

Baby Brain Weekly Memoir: 9th January 2015

Good afternoon all 🙂
Hope you, babies and bumps are all doing well!
So I thought it would be a nice idea for me to do a weekly post on what we’ve been up to during the week. Some weeks will seem a lot more interesting/heavier than others! I have such a severe case of baby brain that I’ve had to jot down what we’ve been up to in a notes page on my phone on a daily basis!
I’ve only just started writing this post and Arjun has just woken up, I’ve put him next to me in bed whilst I write this post and he’s lying on his belly (meant to be sleeping!). Every time I look at him, he smiles and so do his eyes.  He makes my heart melt.  It makes me want to cry 🙁 One day my baby boy is going to be an independent man who no longer dotes on his mummy!
Decided to take a break to enjoy that little moment!
Back to the post …
So here goes..!
This week we hosted a dinner for Preetam’s newly married sister Mane and her husband Jas and their family.  Arjun really enjoyed it as he loves socialising with big groups – probably because the whole room centres around him! Who doesn’t like a bit of attention!?  I’ve noticed he especially loves grandmas and Jas’ Maaji (grandma) is by no means an exception!  He absolutely adores her.

Baby Brain’s One Line a Day! … A Mum’s Journal

Hey All,
Hope you’re well!
I started this from the day Arjun was born.  “Mom’s One Line a Day” is a cool way to compare your child’s development over time and also as a collection of memories.  It’s in a diary format which allows a quick and easy way to capture the everyday moments of mummyhood especially with my severe case of baby brain!  With enough space to jot down a thought or a special event each day for five years, this keepsake will enable me to reflect back on what we did over the past year(s) and share it with Arjun too when he’s older.
I don’t always get the chance to physically write in the book, so I keep a note page in my phone and put key things down in there daily – be it a new development e.g. his first smile/laugh, meeting someone, visiting a new place or a bad night! I then play catch up and write up a few in the actual diary after a few days.

Half a Year Old Already! Arjun Turns 6 Months – An Update on his Milestones

Hello all,
Hope you’re well!
I can’t believe Arjun has turned six months already! Boxing Day marked his six month birthday. Time is just flying and he’s grown so much right before my eyes. It almost feels surreal. My tiny little baby has now grown in to a mini man … Ok not quite but he’s not far off!! 
We celebrated his six month birthday with a “banana cake”! He loved it and didn’t hold back in demolishing it – proving to us that his baby led part of weaning is working!
