8 lbs...

Hey gang...long time no blog! Sorry for my tardiness, but I have been out celebrating since finding out that I have not only surpassed my birth weight, but even hit the mighty 8lb mark! On top of that, my grandparents from New York and great grandfather came and took care of me on Wednesday and my Philadelphia grandparents threw me a meet and greet with some of my parents friends last night...needless to say, I've been staying busy. My dad is getting ready to go back to work this week:( and my mom is gearing up for her next exam:(...I am getting the feeling that my parents might be nerds:) Can you guys give me a heads up if this is true? Anyway, I promise to be better at posting more often.

A Final Reminder...

Hey gang! Sorry I didn't post anything yesterday...I was sort of down. You see I departed with the final reminder of my 9 month vacation in my mom's tummy...I lost my umbilical cord (the literal one; it will be years until we see if the figurative one remains attached). Anyway, I took sometime to reflect on this noteworthy event. When I woke this morning, I felt so independent...I felt like I could honestly conquer the world (as long as someone took care of feeding me and managed my bowel movements). Tonight I am gonna take my first bath; if last week's shampooing was a preview, I should get a great night's sleep. See you guys later!

After my bath...ready for some sleep

Fun Weekend!

Hey everyone! I hope you guys are all recovering from a fun weekend...we were so busy. On Friday night, my grandparents and cousins came over which was so fun. On Saturday I took my first walk across the Walnut Street bridge...it was sort of scary but at least it was a small one. Then I got a chance to meet some of parent's close friends...they were all so nice, especially Aunt Assal: she brought cupcakes from Magnolia! My Uncle Pooyan and Auntie Shabnam also dropped in on the pizza party Sunday afternoon. Got to be honest with you, I am sort of pooped. Talk soon...Nava

Can someone tell my parents that its too soon to be visiting colleges:)

My Uncle Fred and Aunt Kim from Hoboken!

(Actually Uncle Farid and Aunt Kimia)

Me and the cupcake lady...she was so nice!

My dad's friend Yogesh...he talks like the Geico guy
