Conversation between Devaangi and papa

Papa to Shivaangi: mera golu kaisa hai
Devaangi: papa yeah golu nahi golu molu hai... Golu to mamma hai!!!!

(P.S i didn't know where to look)


Shivaangi's first holi

We celebrated Shivaangi's first holi on 17th Mar 2014.
The day started with applying tikka on our Guruji's pics in our house mandir. You will not believe it that by evening on two of Guruji's pictures, the tikka had taken the shape of om. It's Guruji's way of blessing our bacha!!
We applied colors to Shivaangi for shagun- after all this was Shivaangi's first holi!!!


But i think the person who enjoyed it the most was  Devaangi!!! Devaangi was excited when papa applied colors to her face. However when Devaangi first saw herself in the mirror she wasn't too happy. In sometime she however got used to her new look. Then there was no stopping her and Devaangi enjoyed playing with pichkari and colors....


God bless both my bachas!!!!

ufff main kya karoon

Background to the conversation:
I had put my cellphone in airplane mode as Devaangi was playing with the same. I took the phone from Devaangi with lot of resistance to give some one's number to my guest at home. I forgot where i kept the phone after taking out the required number. About an hour later i was looking for the phone when the below conversation took place:
me: Devaangi where is mama's phone
Devaangi: woh to gandi waali aunty le gayi (reference is here to an Indonesian face  mask that we have at home)
me: kya?
Devaangi: haan aapka phone maine gandi waali aunty ko de diya hai. 
This loop of dialoges continued a couple of times while i was fanatically searching for my phone everywhere.
After some time Devaangi came with my phone in her hand.
Devaangi: mama apka phone
me:yeh kahan se aaya?
Devaangi: (with a big smile) yeah maine apni almirah mein rakha tha
me: Devaangi aap aise mera phone kharab karoge to aapke papa mujhe daatenge
Devaangi: mama papa nahi pitaji (with a big grin)
me: what??
Devaangi: mama papa nahi pitaji

Arrival of our little princess

Tiny fingers, tiny toes,
Little, itty, bitty clothes,
Dresses, dolls, hair in curls,
Guess what…It`s a Girl.
With Guruji’s grace we gratefully announce the birth of our little daughter Shivaangi!! 

This is how mama announced to the world the arrival of Shivaangi 
                  and

Bin maange jholiaan bhar dete hain wo, 

Miri Piri ke Maalik, har Muraad poori kar dete hain wo,
Un Devon ke Dev ne apne angon se bana Devaangi ko Bheja,
Aaj uske peeche Guruji Shivaangi ko bhej diye hain wo.
Jai Guruji!


This is how papa announced to the world the arrival of Shivaangi


Yes to complete our little world and add to the joys that her elder sister has filled our lives with, our younger daughter Shivaangi  arrived in this world on 3rd july 2013.

Like other kids of her age, devaangi too likes to go to the park and enjoys her rides on the slides and swings. She in fact looks forward to such visit. Once Devaangi is on the jhoolas, it is virtually impossible to take her back home. My bacha is an absolute daredevil. The first time she saw the slide in the park (she was a little less than 2 years then), she wanted to go on it. We made bachu slide all the while holding her hand. That was just the beginning. Woh din hai aur aaj ka din hai, devaangi goes on the slide on her on irrespective of how high the slide is. She simply loves to slide. At home too we have got her a slide. When she is in mood and papa is around, devaangi simply loves to hang around the slide and enjoy to the fullest with papa guiding, pushing and instructing her!!! This activity is more common at late night when a tired mom has gone to bed and papa and darling daughter are in full mood to chillax and enjoy without a nagging mother around
