Spring Days together

This weekend Arya and I went to McDonalds together. We had some fun dancing and laughing as Arya made some funny faces.



He had a happy meal and here is drinking his apple juice
He usually likes to remove the straw and sip from the hole.




We also had fun earlier this week with the gang and got to hang out.




Back at home during the week Arya learned to watercolor and was so fascinated that he spent hours until he truly got sick of it.






But best of all this is my favorite picture. It is where Arya proves his persian roots or should I say his "Modaresi" roots with craving this lime out of the blue and not making a single flinch sucking on it and biting into its juices! Way to go for a 1 year old!




Here is what he ate!


And to make up for taking too long with updating this post, here are some more pics to enjoy!

Spring time fun

Easter for Arya was a fun event. He had the opportunity to dye his own eggs for the first time then go find some plastic ones with toys in them. Jamjam had fun too as they both ran around our house looking for them. Here are some pictures from Easter week. Hope everyone had a lovely spring break and enjoyed the time together. Love to all...

Eideh Noroozetan Mobarak!

This is the first Eid that Ali and I went to visit his family with Arya. It was an exciting time for him since the last time he was there he was only 4 months or so. It's been almost a year and a half and all the girls have grown so much! It was a lovely time with everyone. Hope you all have the most amazing Saleh No with all the health, happiness and success and in many years to come!

Our 8 Year Anniversary

2010 brings the 8th year anniversary of our marriage together. If there was a book, one would probably say, "Wow, you two have had quite an adventure!" Whatever roads we had to go through, I'm glad for where we have landed here and now. And I only hope that the future holds a little less excitement and a little more relaxation here on out...RIGHT! Who am I kidding. Anyhow.,,,here are some other pictures of us at Extreme Pizza.







I really like this picture of you two.


This one too.

In the Backyard with Arya

The weather had been so wonderful for the past few days so we decided to have a mini picnic together. Since Arya loves to peel tangerines, that's what we did and sat on a mini rug enjoying the sun, Sasha running around and eating yummy fruit at the same time. Jayeh hamatoon khalee, it was a beautiful day.











Here are a few more taken from the other day on the patio. He was a little boxer that day. hehehe

Arya's Mom & Nana's Bday

Arya helped celebrate my birthday with Nana, Papa and Ali. Kami, Jamil and Tina will celebrate with us on the weekend due to Tina being sick. They were missed.
Here are a few pictures of us together at our house. Arya helped open the gifts.





We also had fun the day before at the folsom outlets. Here's one with Ali and Arya. We let him walk around more nowadays instead of sitting in the stroller. He is wearing the baby leash however. He likes it :) I love that thing.

19 Months - Let the games begin

Arya has become fascinated with the Ball. In any way shape or form he wants to play with it when he gets the chance. In this video he is playing with his baba some kickball. Maybe a prerequisite for soccer, who knows?



He has also been a bit of a dancer since he started to stand so here's the latest of his routines. Gotta love the Dora song...hehehe



And a snapshot of our little dancer.



With his fascination of glasses, he found this one he liked very much when we went shopping one day. I told him please let me take your picture...and wow, he let me.



And here's Arya and how I put him to sleep every night. A stroll around the house in his stroller holding Winnie the Pooh and Baby Bop.
