Eid al-Fitar


It is getting so hard to take pictures of her anymore she just does not sit still.

Visiting slash bossing around her cousin before leaving.

We celebrated Eid al-Fitar which comes after the month of fasting for Ramadan. Its a day of food, praying and respect..... enter Danya. She was so hyper and excited at the Mosque running around playing screaming, treading dangerously close to a time out. All in all she REALLY enjoyed the day.

Girly girl





Danya is the biggest girly girl, she loves to wear dresses, necklaces, bracelets, purses, and my high heels.

Puppy Love


I LOVE Raja's expression here

As Danya is getting older she and Raja can actually play together. She bosses him around and makes him sit and play with her toys, its just the cutest.

Southern Visit


Picking peaches on a scorching hot day, what were we thinking, at least the kids had fun.

Lots of the time was spent having fun with water, Danya's expression here is so true to life.


The museum had a mini grocery store, all the shelves and carts were toddler size. At the end they got to check out and get a receipt - very clever!
We were in Memphis and Arkansas for a while. Danya and her cousin Haaris are really playing together now, its just so special. Here they are the Memphis Children's Museum, great place!

An Update



Playing with her pots and pans that she pretends to cook a meal in.
This dress was given to her by her friend Aubrey Cate, I adore the color!


We are the sort of people that bought an SLR camera and didn't really learn how to use all of its features, at first. Once we we got into researching and educating ourselves we realized that if we spent (percentage wise) a little more money we could really get something great. We promptly returned the one we original one and then Nadeem went to Europe for work again, we had family staying with us, then the three of us were traveling and we never got around to ordering our step up. So I have been forcing myself lately to take pictures with the old crummy one until the new one arrives in couple of weeks, yeaaaa its on its way!

Sesame Street Live

All smiles before heading out.
It was impossible to get her and the characters at the same time as she would not look away for even a second to take a picture.
Eyes glued to the stage during a tense moment with Elmo.We recently went to see Sesame Street Live with Danya. She had a blast dancing and pointing out all the characters, not to mention watching to all the other kids there. We were not sure if she was old enough to enjoy it but we were so glad we went and baby girl had such a good time.

Birthday in Disneyland

Danya's best friend Ryan and his mom went with us and it was amazing how much fun they had together.



In Minnie's house where she just had to sit on all the furniture.

For Danya's birthday we were is Disneyland over the weekend. Danya the explorer loved it, she said hi to all the characters, enjoyed the rides and loved to see all the other kids having fun. Here she is with Daddy taking a boat ride to see all the princess castles.
