Being Coy with Spiderman

After running into the webbed wonder at the local mall, our little champion put on the moves in his spidey-mobile. 

She was able to hang with Snoopy and others as well. 

Happy Kid!

Posing to show off the spring wardrobe!  Never quite been fearful of the camera

Oh Sadie!

Sachi shows her love for Uncle Tommy's four legged friend.

2012 Year in Review - November and December

NC or bust!  After years of pretending and praying, the Ozas actually pulled up their Ohio stakes and put down a down payment on their first little piece of Americana, settling in the wonderful township of Chapel Hill.  Only miles from Oza patriarch Alma Mater, little Sachi and Paipi began their new adventure in backwoods of NC.

First day after moving...Halloween!  The world's largest strawberry:

And right after arriving, Deven the Dude had a traditional thread ceremony in Charlotte.   We got all dressed up and Sachi did a little dancing:

She had difficulty reciting her ABCs and walking a straight line after being pulled over on the way home:

Posing around Casa de Oza:

Peace god.

Some roses from Dadda

Nice thing about Carolina.  Weather baby!  Its November and we're on the deck and in the woods?!?  You've got to be kidding me!

Holiday appropriate clothing:

Roast chicken to go with some turkey

Check out thatThanksgiving spread

And of course, Christmas.  Sachi got to meet Santa and he brought her some goodies:

Princess car! 

Trampoline from Baa-chan and Ji-chan!

And last but not least, we had some friends visit:

(Tamachan actually visited us in Cleveland)

Momma's Anpanman bread!

Sadie grrrl

Aili-chan and Mr. Chick-Fil-a

 Thanks for bringing us the flu Uncle Ravi...Go Heels!

WHAT A YEAR!

2012 Year in Review - September and October

As the summer came to a close, September and October was an absolute flurry.  Weddings, ballet, Halloween and the biggest change of all, The Move.

It kicked off with a little chess in the park...

...and collaboration as to the next move with the Pup

Elsie stopped by to swap boochu/binky stories, among other things:

Once the initial fanfare died down, on to the big stuff, which means wedding season baby! Uncle Vishal got married to the lovely (the now) Aunti Anjali (technically Anjali Mami) and our little hero was asked to be a flower girl, which required that she don her best Indian garb and make her first stroll down the isle (and thankfully, not as the star of the show).

First, a pit stop at the famed Chicago Millennium Ball with Deven the Dude and Uncle Ve:

And a short nap afterwards

So as to ensure that everything didn't go too smoothly, a short pitstop to the emergency room was in order due to some breathing troubles.  Nothing like a little nebulizer to open up them lungs...Smile for the camera!

But got back just in time to dress up and get down to business:

Flower girl!

Down the isle...

On to the wedding and...

...back to Cleveland (momma was passed out and refused to be photographed)

A little holiday season action:

And a new interest - ballet!

Some quality time with members of the old gang:

And on to the big news:  Moving out!

Exhausted after moving everything out

In the end, it was Goodbye Cleveland.  Thanks for the memories!
