Pick your baby colours with Kuler!

By Abbas -
Obviously, I have to plug my employer, Adobe, at some point in this blog.. but it's relevant to the whole baby topic, I swear! So here we go..

Let's say you're looking for a colour scheme for your nursery (or for your baby shower, or for a wedding, or anything else), you could use Adobe's Kuler web application (http://kuler.adobe.com)! Kuler is essentially a designer community for sharing colour themes, and you can browse/search through all the themes without registering! The screenshot on the left shows some of the results I got when I searched for 'baby' - not a bad starting point for those of us who may be colour-challenged!

Once you've gotten this far, you can play around with the colour themes by substituting different colours or applying colour rules. If you're interested in learning all that Kuler can do, try the video tutorial on this page.

Mom & Baby Samarah are doing well.. we're all looking forward to going home later this week and starting a new chapter in our lives as a family. Samarah sends her love to all her friends, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandmas, grandpas. More pictures to follow.

Fast forward...

Ok, so I feel like I'm cheating a little bit here by posting six months worth of pictures at once, but this is the only way I have a remote chance of catching up. As you can see from the pictures, the Rizvi family definitely had a busy few months.. between birthdays, engagement parties, anniversaries, and family outings, we kept a full social calendar. Also, as you can tell from the picture above, Samarah and Syra are really starting to play well together. Ok, maybe 'well' isn't the right word, but they do have their moments. Syra definitely has a more forceful personality, which effectively neutralizes the size advantage Samarah has. I'm sure the fighting will only escalate as they get older. Stay tuned. In the meantime, enjoy the pictures from Jan-June, 2011!

Busy. Busy. Busy.

It's been a busy couple of months in the Rizvi household. Don't believe me? Well, here are a few highlights from August and the first week of September: Plenty of post-move issues (dealing with the builder, trying to get a Rogers tech to actually show up on time, unpacking the remaining boxes, etc.). All in all, fairly typical for moving into a new home, but having both girls home full-time added a bit of extra challenge. Two weekends with out-of-town visitors . We had a ton of fun with our guests - especially with Baby Tess meeting Samarah and Syra (just check the pictures). Having to deal with our refrigerator breaking down after 6 weeks. Let me tell you, that is one appliance you cannot do without. It was an interesting week to say the least, but we did get to live like Europeans and buy fresh groceries every day. An out-of-town wedding (congrats Julia and Shane!) Kicking the afternoon nap.. and I know what some of you are thinking, but no, it wasn't me trying to for...
