The one with the grandparents

Little Anya has been quite lucky to have a visit from both the set of grandparents and she was ofcourse quite happy to provide free entertainment and a full time occupation for them and they have been providing the precious 'covering fire' for her parents as a respite.

The grandparents from her mom's side came first and that is when Little Anya had just about started to make sounds and turn around on her own.She kept them busy all the time and vice versa !

She got a lot of presents from them including dresses, some traditional Indian herbal remedies and amongst other things they also got her silver anklets. These adorn Little Anya's cute little feet. Ofcourse they also serve as an early warning system for her parents when Little Anya is about to wake up from her slumber or is upto something with her feet.

She was quite quick to know them and liked being with them. Ofcourse she was growing heavier by the day hence it was not an easy task to carry her around, although she liked that ! She also got her Baby Gym during those days and learnt to workout in her own noisy way.


Then it was a time for the grandparents from her dad's side to visit. They managed to find Little Anya in a state that was full of movements, sounds , gestures and moods. Little Anya had become a bit more 'user friendly' by then. One could do many playful things with her. At the same time, she was deep into the habit of moving herself on the floor.



They celebrated her 6 months outside her mom with a lot of presents. Yes, she got a lot of stuff from her fanclub back home in India. Golden bracelets, silver utensils and a golden chain amongst other nice things. Little Anya along with her complete 'decorations' has ofcourse been photographed in abundance that day.





Little Anya's 'royal regalia' makes it difficult for her mom to conduct routine feeding, burping business, hence she does not wear it that often, more of a cermonial phenomenon it is. Yes, some are born with a silver spoon and the rest get it thrust upon them by their moms!!
