Project 365: Week 1

Hi,

Last year, we completely missed Project 365 - a random pic a day through the year. This year, we are going to catch little Z growing up, every single day. :)

We will not be sharing photos of his sis's face, as she is no more a baby. Looking forward to a fantastic year, IA!

Day 1: At maternal grand parents home. All sleepy after a second head shave. We had scheduled his circumcision for this week. But, cancelled due to a possible 'hand foot mouth' disease worry due to the rashes spotted on his body.

Baby Zee @ 1 month

Hi All,

Baby Zee is growing good so far. He is now 45 days old. We just had his first dose of vaccination yesterday and he did turn out be a cranky boy afterwards. He cried for hours, clung to Mama for 3-4 hours until his pain subsided.

His first smile was 26 days old, on 6th Nov for the first time. He is not yet generous with his smiles though. He is weighing 4.5 kg and 55 cm length, which is in the ideal range for his age. He is a bit short compared to what L was at the same age. :)

Meeting cousins for the first time!

Z's first meeting with his cousins (my SIL's two daughters). 

We had nice time with a house full of people to pamper L and Z. 

7th Day, Clean head!

As per Islamic tradition, we've got Baby Z's birth hair shaved on 7th day of birth, same as we did for  his sister. It was of course challenging to find someone to shave his head, right here in Bangalore. This is such a common ritual in Muslim families in Kerala, and so it was never such a tiring experience to find one. We finally managed to get a young man through my baby sitter. He did a fantastic job and we were all surprised at the precision and practice he had at such a younger age. Z did great and he slept through the time his head was getting shaved.

Introducing Baby Zee

Dear All,

It's been almost a year, just can't imagine how fast time flew by. A lot have changed in life. I have grown into a 6 year old little lady, moved to Grade 1 and so far doing great with academics. Mama was having an extremely busy year at work.

By the way, I am here to share a wonderful with you. Alhamdulillah, I have become a big sister to a little boy, let's call him baby Zee. Our little rainbow boy was born on Friday, 9th Oct (Sorry.. too late to share the news) 12. 23 PM. Did you know, I was born on 11th Oct 2009, 12.37 AM? Such a precious gift I got on my 6th Birthday.

Here is our little boy.
