Neera Nikki Naya And Naveen Summer Visit
It’s been such a fun few weeks. We got back from our trip to the bay on Monday and Neeru flew in with the kids to LA on wed! Nikki joined a day later. This trip was a big WIN for our family. Aanika, Naya and Naveen coexisted so beautifully. They played all day saturday, took a dip in the pool, played marbles, ate dinner together and watched a movie together. It was like magic. Neera and I got to have quality sister time, sunning and doing usual LA girl poolside silliness while everyone enjoyed themselves! YES! #happyheartsallaround
Feb – Early March 2022
February has been a lot about getting back into a routine post all the holidays and making sure we’re all making time to celebrate each other and enjoy life everyday. We’ve been getting our fitness game on even more and have been taking walks at our favorite et park and found a new beautiful hangout at Chatswoth park as well. The month of love…but for us every day is a reason to love and be grateful for this beautiful thing called life.
Love is in the air ❤️ Nick and I had some lovely dates to the palisades and Malibu and park evenings to just recoup and enjoy some quiet time. Jatin gifted me a ostrich beanie baby which is creepy and cute all in one! Aanika cuddled up with her daddy briefly before pouncing on him like a baby tiger! Crazy and In love. That’s our family!
September 2021 – 1st Half
So usually as September moves on things get busier, fall starts, kids school activities are in full swing and of course soon birthday season in the Gundara house will be upon us! So before I forget some of the smaller details before the craziness arrives I though I would document a few sweet and funny memories.
Aanika and I enjoyed a lovely garden morning and painted with the “good stuff” while the boys were on a drive.
I got my haircut for the first time in a very long time!
Jatin has been hard at work studying pretty late at night. He’s a sweetheart and truly our blessing. Love him so much.
Gundara Pixel Disney family
If we were animated as a Disney / Pixar family here is how we might look! Aanikas face is already designed like a beautiful princess so these look pretty spot on! Courtesy voila al artist app!!
Swim Season 2021
Swim season has official began! It was 91 degrees out today but we still heated the pool lol! Got the kids all suited up and the four of us went for the first official Gundara swim of 2021!
The kids have worked hard this school year and they’ve only got 1 more week before they are out on summer vacation. Jatin said he wants to work on his secret project, hang with friends, watch movies, play piano and learn about stocks! Aanika already knows the secret to life and lives her best life everyday! Nick and I have been working harder than ever but that’s the phase of life we’re in and grateful to have each other to rely on and support during the craziness and fun! Can’t wait for summer. We could all use some sunshine and relaxation!
May 2021
The kids are winding down their school year. Nicks work and my business has been slammed but good. Been going to Zumba again! Celebrated Mother’s Day, Daddy’s Birthday and Jatin started going to school for Band rehearsal again!
Mommy and I had a lovely shopping morning to celebrate Mother’s Day on Saturday and then Nick, Jatin and Aanika spoiled me all day Sunday with flowers, cards, bougie snacks and new scooters for the backyard!
Aanika and I planted some new life for the garden and Nick rocked his sombrero that he won from a video game challenge!
February & March 2021
Life has been busy and fun in the Gundara house. Working from home and schooling from home is normal now as it’s been going on for almost a year! The grown ups have been vaccinated – YEAH!! The kids are still growing like weeds!
Aanikas been enjoying time with her big brother and still insists on taking him for rides in her Cadillac that he can barely fit into! But being the great brother he is, Jatin goes along with it.
The boys have been playing basketball again now that the weather is beautiful.
Aanika is looking cuter with each day and has a whole new wardrobe. She grew out of all her old wardrobe.
Nick gave Daddy a beard trim and hair cut in the garage. Daddy really wanted to keep his giant beard lol! He looked fresh afterwards.
We’ve been spending a lot of time in the garden. The weather has been gorgeous.
Jatin had laughing gas during his tooth exposure surgery and was convinced that it had all worn off by the time he got to the car but here a a few funny pictures of him talking to his dad right after. He was hilarious!!
A few more fun pictures to close up the month.
And to wrap up, Nick and I are celebrating 18 years married this month! We celebrated over lunch at city walk after he got his second vaccine that Friday.
And I finally got a haircut after a year and a half yeah!!!!
Happy 18th wedding anniversary! Stayed in for the weekend … Nick was recovering from his second vaccine. Ordered Maria’s for the evening and enjoyed the beautiful warm Southern California weather and backyard.
January 2021
Well we’re officially 1 month out from 2020 and it’s been a very busy start to the new year. Not just personally but there have been many newsworthy events as well. We went from Trump to Biden. And just days before that there was an attack on the capitol building. The stock market has been crazy. #gamestop and crypto currency is on fire. We’ve been home the entire month. Kids are back in school, vacation days are done and we’re back to our usual busy-working from home life.
Nick and I have been going for daily walks and enjoying some one on one time while the kids are being virtual schooled.
The neighborhood kids got to see each other for Dre’s birthday party.
Jatin had to take a yearbook photo from home!
Aanika got a haircut by her favorite stylist Doodis and is of course looking even more naughty than usual.
The kids have been enjoying their hangout time with nick. Playing games, riding scooters and going for walks.
I am attempting to not wear sweatpants everyday!
It’s been colder so we’ve been loving lighting our fireplace while playing games, listening to music and watching tv.
Jatin has continued his quest for fitness and has been using the outdoor gym more.
We got the first month delivery of the pizza service and coke box that I gifted nick for Christmas. The retro Coke can was great, the rest was a bit of a bust but still fun to get something new in the mail!
And our darling fur babies are as happy as ever that we’re still all home all the time lol!
Jatin might have to get a tooth opened up. Looking very serious and very grown up here. We think he’ll be getting his braces off by the end of the year. That went quickly!
Nick has been loving taking the Ferrari out!
The boys have started playing old school consoles in Nicks office. Reminds me of playing my NES as a kid in Bell Canyon.
I started a new sketch based on beautiful cocktails.
We rang in the New Year simply and quietly just like most of the world. Let 2021 bring happiness, good health, peace, love and prosperity to all.
