Change … Unloading my Thoughts

Why do I struggle so much with change? Arjun has just started crawling and its made me so irrational.  I always deal with change this way but struggling more so with this! 

It’s normal for a baby to grow and develop and start reaching their milestones. I am proud, super proud. But why do I also feel so sad?! Why do I feel like I’m already losing him?  He’s 8 months! Get a grip woman!  I wish he’d slow down!
The whole last 8 months feels like one big fat blur! I want to rewind back to when my baby was only relying on me. Now he’s on the move, I feel like that’s gone. I feel like I’ve lost something. I want him to reach out to ME when he wants something.  I’m being irrational I know. But I can’t seem to snap out of it!

My First Mother’s Day!

Hello all!

Hope you had a super special Mother’s Day! I’m still walking on air since yesterday – I had the best day ever. It was a pretty simple day but it was just perfect! I got to spend time with all the people that matter!

We had decided to take Arjun to Singh Sabha Gurdwara (Sikh temple) on Sunday morning at 4am for Simran (a form of meditation repeating God’s name on the harmonium) as a surprise for my mum and because I wanted to start the day off there. My mum goes everyday (for the last 30 years!) at 4am and I knew it would be the perfect Mother’s Day gift for her to have her grandson there for the first time. I also really wanted Arjun to meet all the lovely people that had gifted him so much when he was born but had never met.

Baby Brain Weekly Memoir: 13th March 2015

Hello all,

I hope you’ve had a good week and made the most of the glimpses of sunshine we’ve had!

This week feels like it’s flown and had I not jotted down our ongoings I totally would’ve forgotten what we’ve been up to! My baby brain seems to be getting worse which is super worrying given I’m back at work in July!

So Saturday we had one of closest friends, Rithu, and her husband come over. We don’t often get to see them but when we do we have such a laugh and somehow manage to catch up on the ongoings from the last few months!

Our Vegetarian Mexican Night Recipes (Including Baby Menu Recipes)!

Hello All,

Hope you’re well!

We had friends over last weekend and I decided to go with a Mexican themed evening for us and for Arjun (see his meal recipes at the end).

It’s the first time since Arjun I’ve properly sought out recipes and mixed and matched a few to create my own.  It was so rewarding as the meal turned out delicious (if I do say so myself!).

The chair also comes with a footstool.

Baby Room Organisation! … Drawers & Closets!

Hello All!

I thought I’d share a few of my bits around how I organise Arjun’s nursery.

I’m a super organised person by nature so naturally my baby’s nursery was going to have to be in top shape and order prior to me going in to labour. And lucky I did get some order in as my labour didn’t quite go as expected (My Birth Story) so Preetam was left to find his way around the nursery and said it was pretty simple to do so! 

Baby Brain Weekly Memoir: 6th March 2015 … Back to Reality!

Hello all!

Hope you’re all keeping well and have a good week.

This was our first full week at home since Dubai as last week Preetam was in NY and Arjun and I stayed at my parents.

This week was definitely a huge time of adjustment for me. I went from having others around me constantly for the last three weeks to suddenly being all alone again. I always struggle to readjust and always go back to a place where I question my ability to be able to take care of Arjun alone. We are slowly getting back there!
