Birthday Party

We did not have a separate birthday party this year...the thing is, there was already a new year party planned with our friends in Toronto and one more party just one day earlier would have been "one too many". So we cut a cake in the new year's party instead.

It was a little difficult for both sets of grandparents, Preeti Atya, Ath, Ajay Kaka and also Sanket Kaka, Jui and Snehal Kaku back home since this is the first time they were not present for my party - we used to have so much fun together every year.

I got a "Cake-o-saurus" design cake. We had Pizza and Chicken Nuggets as snacks. There was dinner later in the evening (that was part of the New year Party). It was a fun evening.

7 Years old !

I turned 7 today and one of the gifts that I get is the continuation of this blog. Baba was not able to contribute for a while but has promised to take it up from now on - stay tuned !

I got up at 9 this morning then spent some time on the phone with friends and family who called to wish - Aaji-Aba, Preeti Atya, Suneeta Maushi, Anand Kaka, Tamhane Aaji. Bombay Ajoba-Aaji had already called me last night - it was the 30th for them in India already then. This is my first birthday away from Pune and everyone misses me as much as I miss them.

Aaji has sent me a huge parcel with gifts and goodies from Pune - that came in this morning - I loved all the gifts !

Baba took me to Tim Hortons for breakfast like I wanted (I just love double-chocolate doughnuts at TH) and then the three of us went to see a movie - Arthur Christmas - at the Empress Theaters at North York. We then went to Kids Fun City and played on the playscape and th mini-golf...Baba challenged me on several holes and I beat him 13 times :)

There is no birthday party today - we will cut a cake at the new year party tomorrow instead. Here are some pics
