The past summer Akshaya watched Peter Pan for the first time and she fell in love with the movie, particularly Tinkerbell. It was no surprise when she requested a Tinkerbell themed party in December for her 7th birthday. In seven years, this is probably the second time that Akshaya has asked for a licensed character themed party. I am not Read More …
In just five days, my youngest baby will be turning a year old and I’m still in awe over how quickly we have gotten to this special milestone in Vishnu’s life.

Tomorrow will mark five whole years since my little Karthik came into this world, nevertheless I remember every single detail of my pregnancy and his birth like it was yesterday.

I am just two days shy of 37 weeks pregnant which is really wonderful as my OBGYN initially expected to deliver my son at around 32 weeks if my lupus symptoms continued to get worse. I experienced an episode of slight inflammation and joint pain around 28 weeks but thankfully it subsided within a week before reappearing a solid six weeks later. Starting at Read More …
