Annaprasanam

No.v 18 marked a great milestone in little Vidhyuthat's life - annaprasanam. With her sweet uncle being around, the family had a quiet, yet engaging ceremony at the Mahalingapuram Iyyappan temple.

 Enjoyin the moment with mama & manni..

Nestled comfortably in Mama's lap..

Always looking at everyone curiously..

Thulabaram - feels like I am flying

Unfortunately, I could'nt be there but I was told cutie pie was at her well behaved best and truly kept the lord and everyone happy. Way to go vidhyutha !



Family luncheon- Only thought for food for Vidhyutha !

.. We also  managed to sneak out for a great family luncheon at probably the best south Indian restaurant in chennai - that's saying a lot in the land of maamy messes and mylapore hotels  - Annalakshmi. The place is a strong recommend for anyone aiming to fill their limitless stomachs on a lazy day. The food is served in the choicest silverware in true Tamilian style.

We had a great time gorging on some of the best sambhar, appalams, vatha kuzhambus you will ever get, a short wait notwithstanding. Vidhyutha, unfortuantely, could not have a speck of rice and poor little thing kept staring at us washing down all of that food. of course, she did get to taste a little of payasam and was the better for it - with her lips wanting for more !

Some pictures...

Dwarark mama's trip to India

After a long hiatus, dear Vidhu is back - and back with a whole host of updates. Vidhu's sweet uncle - Dwarak and his wife Divya made a whirlwind visit to rained out Chennai. with Chennai at its best for this time of the year, and Vidhyuthat at her well-behaved best, she sure did have a great time with all connections.

Here are some snaps of Vidhyutha coochie-cooing with her uncle and aunt. For a full 15 days, she certainly was the object of their muse - with their camera clicking away to capture her various moods. Find attached a few  snaps of her ride !

In between, I managed to take her out for a little ride around the apartment complex in her perch - the neat, little sling that allows her to take in the senses like a little bird flying at low altitude.
