Santa @ Daddy's Office

I always wondered where Dadda goes after dropping me @ School. Finally I got to see that place...



It was probably the best day to be there. It was nicely decorated & there were so many fun activities too. Hey you know what...I got my first tattoo on my tiny hands :) It just stayed for a few minutes though...



As if all the decorations and fun weren't enough, I got to meet Santa..And it's true...Santa does give you gifts...I got mine...You dont believe me? Check out for yourself...



Though there are not as many toys as in my school, Papa's school was fun too :)

First Hair Cut

Turning one does come with some good things in store. I'm glad that finally Mom Dad realized that my hair had reached that length which mostly tickles and sometimes irritates my ears and eyes.  



They took me to Snip-its..a children's haircut franchise. Initially I was a little reluctant



But once I realized it is for my good, I probably must have been one of their best and most obedient customer




I was posing and turning just the way they wanted me to




And to my surprise, me being so obedient fetched me not just neat and tidy hair but candies too :)
 



Mamma has saved my first hair lock.

I turned ONE

"Happy Birthday to You..Happy Bday to you..Happy Birthday Dear Rheu...Happy B'day to you". That's the first thing I heard  this morning
I got a lot of phone calls - from my Achchamma, Ammamma, Aru Chettan, Hashu Mama...all saying the same thing though - "Happy Bday vava" which made me realize that today is something special....today is MY day :)



We reached a nice place which was all decorated with frills, balloons, cut outs..I took a good morning nap before we left which helped me avoid any meltdown while celebrating the big day..



Right near the door was the attendance sheet - 'The Guest Book'



I was dressed up all in white..like an angel...Thank you Vellyachcha and Vellyamma for the pretty frock..I did hear people say - "Oh, she is a doll" :)



One by one there were so many people coming and showering me with blessings and hugs and pecks..I was enjoying all the attention and pampering...
Finally it was the cake cutting time...You wanna see Princess Rhea's Cake :)



I was all excited to not just cut the cake but have it too. Hmm...It was yummy


Everyone around was clapping...I too know how to do that ...And I didn't hold back :)



After the cake cut, Mamma and Sunaina Aunty changed me into a pretty dress gifted by my Tuttu Appachchi and Hashu Mama....Everyone had praises for me...which I undoubtedly was enjoying :)  And you know not many people knew that I can not just clap but walk too...So why not let them know that too...



After lunch there was a musical chair round for all the ladies...who I must say had been taking good care of me...

                                             (Congrats Sanju Aunty for winning)

People started moving out...Mamma Dadda were giving them a token of thanks...All of which was packed by me..Phew...that was a tough job..



A couple of Mamma Papa's friends stayed back to remove all the decoration and to wind up the long day that we'd had..
Finally the little princess returned to her castle and couldn't think of doing anything else but....



I wanna thank all those friends who took time to help Mamma Dadda with the hall decoration, getting the cake, balloons, pizza and most importantly taking such good care of me..Without your help Mom Dad could not have pulled it off so well.
And hey how can I not thank you all for the lovely gifts that you gave me which I am still to explore and enjoy

Chuck E Cheese's

"Say Cheese"...Yeah...I've heard that before...But Chuck E Cheese...Heard for the first time...And wow...what a fun place it is...
It was Neha's B'day party @ the Chuck E Cheese's. I met ChuckE and his friends. I was all smiles and loved it....



Neha cut the cake and then I got to eat the yummy cheese pizza which I loved...




And what followed was even more fun. I got to drive the car...




You think I'm just posing?? Wait till you see me driving. In fact I'm so good at it that I just need one hand on the wheel



Mamma Dadda also played a lot of games which of course has been added to my 'To Do List' when I grow big.


All of us had a great evening

First Tiny Steps

"Rheu..Walk walk..."
"Vava come on...take this...walk walk"
Off late I've been hearing this a lot. But as you can see, every time I needed  Dadda's or Mamma's hand to do so...



Today was my birthday according to the Hindu calendar. We went to the temple in the evening. After coming home I was busy playing. All of a sudden I got up and without anyone saying "Walk Rheu" I just started doing so...But this time I didn't remember to ask for Mamma or Dadda's hands....



What a great day to start something so memorable..
